Futsal!

Omg yesterday's futsal game is beyond the description of words. Actually, the closest to description of awesomeness would be the word 'OWNING'. Futsal, in case u all didn't know, is very similar to street soccer, but it is played indoors and has an artificial pitch. We had just the right number of players and just the right mood to play, it was THE perfect game. So perfect was it that I had to wear long socks as a celebration of perfection. Lets see, there were 12 of us: nick niel siege dulun waihong cow chern wei cw's bro cw's other bro and cw's bro's friend. Yeap, that's all of us; the interesting part of it was that it really doesn't matter who people play with, so long as they're fair and clean.

Okay, enough with the sentimentality. Its bitching time! =D It all started like this: Cautious justin wanted to make sure that the courts weren't booked yesterday so he decided to call the futsal management and make a booking. Some receptionist who was courteous and sounded professional picked up the phone and assured him that his reservation had been confirmed. On Sunday morning, when they got to the place, the guy at the counter gave us the green light to play, so in they went. All of them exuded youth for the first 30min, and aged as they played on. Then came the killjoy in the form of the guy on duty. He told them that they had to leave because they didn't book the place. Wait! did he just accuse me of being an irresponsible organiser? Cause somehow justin vividly remember myself calling the management and being assured of a court for 2 hours. hm. So SUPPRESSED was his frustration that he lashed out at the the officer, slapped his once on each side of his face, kicked him in the arse and sent him running home crying for his momma. That was what you all wanted to hear right? Sadist bastards. Too bad that wasn't what really transpired on that day when the sun was so hot it fried my brain through the aluminium roof(speaking of global warming,!@#$%^&*()) This was what really happened: Justin tried to convince the officer that he did place a booking under his name. The officer was uncompromising, but suggested that they moved to another court. Initially, they were hesitant, but relented nonetheless. Justin and co. cursed the cruelty that plundered them but spoke no evil of the officer's skin color. Decent young lads they were=D Yea right! The best part was that the very man that pushed them around like punching bags was hoodwinked into believing that they only played for 2 hours =) SUCKER!

at the end of the game, my head was throbbing; heart, racing; and body, dying. We had aged beyond our years.

Note to all who played: thou shall get a refund

Anyway, here's a pic of me that a friend took while i was taking a shot in the field.
