Looks like this blog is quiet again..where's the contributors gone to? :)
Tell us how u felt about yesterday's Deepahallovalli party!
Jo and I had good fun playing water frisbee; alan had a good workout from fanning the charcoal (he got so red); eric was a very attentive bartender; juliana was the ever so lovely and sweet hostess; siti was scaaaary as her motisha (is this how u spell) impersonator; the rest of us were just eating and eating and eating ....
We went upstairs to Jul and Alan's house and took the opportunity to go for a dry swim. Called it an early night for some for us....guess the day just took its toll on us.
But overall it was still good fun!

Last PWC game
We are the CHAMPIONS of the PWC Mixed League!
The last match was a bit of a disappointment since we got to play only 2 quarters and was interrupted umpteen times by a very-concerned-someone who called for a 5-min break whenever a lightning struck.
Do any of you feel our flow was kinda disrupted or were you glad for the "break where we could gather and discuss strategy?
I'm glad in a way, that the unplanned breaks provided Eric the opportunity to tell us how to improve our play, both as a team and individually. I'm hoping to put all that into practise myself.
I thought learning to play in the rain is also a good thing for us. Forcing us to learn to do more short passes/front cuts. I guess when we're "stuck" in a certain situation, it forces us to learn something faster. Not that I'm asking for us to play in the rain again......
heh

losing our guys....
Haiz .... we are losing more and more of our Zenith guys to safsa, simply cos of the eediotic rule in safsa that they have to play for their own club.
#$%&*&&%$#$
how unfair!!! and what dictatorship!!! so typical of "them", isn't it?
what brought about this rant is cos i heard from nigel recently that it'll be his turn to be enlisted soon -- next yr June. so now, we have jeremy, zhelin, eric and soon, nigel playing for them.
grrrrrrrrr

When Love and Hate Collides
The other one was the interesting, fiery flirting between Peiru and Nigel.
Calefare: Eric, KS
As Peiru was graciously flying through the air after a swift pass from Eric, she saw the nimble and opportunistic Nigel burning his puffing defender behind and dashing into the circle to set up for a potential shot.
She said to herself, this is the chance! With one smooth balanced land and trademark catch-and-circle-around with the ball, she threw the ball at the busy setting up Nigel. But alas, it was a one-way admiration and taking of chances - he wasn't looking at her. So, the ball conveniently missed him while Peiru helplessly watched the ball flew out of the court at the goal line.
"*Beep* NYP's throw in." commanded the umpire, KS in cold tone.
At this exact moment, Peiru who was overwelmed by trashed hope, exclamined "Kan wo!! (Look at me!)"
While the equally crushed Nigel quick returned, "NI, yao kan wo!! (YOU look at me!)"
The crowd roared with laughter. Thus, the moment survived to speak of a love-hate story between the two. However, not to worry, they're still living happily after... only separately.

PWC League
It's 2 matches into the PWC Mixed League. We've beaten Safsa (28-21) and yesterday, NZCC Tuatara (54-12). It's been good and fun so far, all thanks to our loyal supporters, players, and coach!
Personally it's upsetting to myself that (of all times) I have to be down with the flu and cough at this point in time, but I try to play my best.
2 more matches to go, 1 against Net4all and 1 against NZCC Kiwi.
Everybardee, let's GoOooOoO and win the last 2!
Woohooooaoaoao

Not Hong Kong Made - Baby Ian
Miracle of Life - Baby Ian
3 Days Old
Almost a month
With copyrights to the pictures and clearance for human rights by the parents of Baby Ian - Joice and Elvin. I attempt to document the journey of Baby Ian's life.
Despite having said that, i shall skip the part on the honey and the bees because we all know how it happens. Exactly like how your parents told you when you asked them how you came about.
"You were made by God and sent in a bundle carried by a stork to us."
This is Baby Ian's 12th Week in Joice's tummy
3 Days Old
Those who are still wondering how would a baby look if we combine Elvin and Joice together (you know like those photo services where they combine 2 person's faces). You can now look around for your answer.
Almost a month
I think Baby Ian will like to clarify something here too. Look at the title of this blog you probably could make a guess already.
Baby Ian:
"I ain't HK Made... "
(confirmed by Joice)

Thank you
Ha! Finally, the "board" agreed to pass the "bill" of having a Zenith blog. :)
I was telling Jo today, that zenith came by at a very appropriate time of my life. When I was down in my personal life, when netball with PA was rubbish, I was offered the opportunity to join zenith.
It was a pleasant surprise to me to realise zenithians are such friendly people, despite seeing the "fierce" side of zenith when PA used to play against zenith in NL.
It was even better when I found out how "structured" zenith is --- with a proper committee and coach and trainings -- and I realised it's finally a place I can improve my netball skills on, and maybe form some valuable friendships.
It's been a great few months with zenith, everyone's been lovely. No doubt there were times when it wasn't so uplifting, selected few have been very encouraging and supportive.
I look forward to spending many more yrs with zenith!
:D
