alrightie then...that was one of the more forgettable weeks in recent memory but I'm not about to throw myself off the side of a very tall building just yet...the asia pacific golf championships have come and gone and needless to say, the singaporean hopefuls were left shooting blanks...
lammie and I both had pretty miserable weeks...the home course boy finished up 12th and yours truly shot uninspired rounds of 79-74-75-78 to finish up 17th...just really cheesed off at my game...couldnt hold it together at all through the rounds...putting was non existent until final 9 where i had 11 putts and still shot 37 on that side...shiet...fooster did us proud and finished 9th...the only singaporean in the top 10...my good friend huang tao from taipei won the A div so rock on man! nicky smits won the C div and we're all very pleased about that...
got to see some olf friends this week again and made a bunch of new ones...including 4 indians...INDIANS...i dont mean like ashwin bhanu indians...I mean real indians! hahaha! such a funny bunch of guys who taught me a whole bunch of new indian words not to be used at a dinner table! hahaha...caught up with the honkies again...jimmy ko and gang...chilled with the phillipinos and got a few laughs of them..."jumbo" eugene bunyi and the rest...and improved my pathetic chinese with my lads from chinese taipei! cant wait for next asia pac on my fav course in hong kong at the HKGC! hahaha...oh yeah, and they made me sing tong hua for the closing dinner act...damnit...
after patheic dinner some of the singapore boys decided to go over to lammies place for some well deserved fun...josh, jase and bhanu came in my car and we were blasting stupid songs on the stereo like "bad day" and "thousand miles"...haha...played pool...had a few vodka shots (joshua was wasted after 3 sips! weak!)...wrestled and just had a blast with the guys and bitched about our tournament...ordered pizza that came 2 hours late and went back at around 11.30...had a great time at lammies crib and really made the week a whole lot better...
so in hindsight nothing to celebrate about this week (learned a lot though) ...but nothing I'm going to lose sleep over..its just been one of those ego check weeks where you just gotta accept it and move on...anyways, I've still got interschools next week to look forward to :)
spread the lovin'
