I cannot and will never understand why Lim Peihui’s students can never take part in competition with Michael Ong’s students and vice versa. Is this a triad kind of thinking? In the past, the few of us could not play for Ngee Ann Polytechnic because Michael Ong did not approve it. It was a terrible …

Poppye after Volleyball
It is a big turn off to play volleyball with people who show “black face” for no reason right at the beginning of the game. But we have to accept the fact that not everyone knows how to control emotion. The next time when you decide to roar or show your discontentment, consider whether if …
Big Impact on Left Knee
It was a very tiring day. Having not enough sleep for couples of days in a row, I almost could not get up again. Blame it on my perseverance to continue with my “Quit Smoking” website that I spent some time working on it before going to sleep at 2am. The feeling of not knowing …
Acting as Pro Setter
Playing volleyball on last Thursday and Saturday made great difference because of the people present. Since on every Saturday we were playing against the group of old ex Hwa Chong players, no outsider was invited and therefore my team’s members were those who I really considered as team-mates. The difference between Mingfa and other setters …
Boring Volleyball Games
It is impossible to play volleyball with some people who think highly of themselves. It is a game of six players on each side; if you like to play two persons’ game, go to the beach instead. You can jolly well go back to your previous team-mates and not spoiling other team’s fun. When you …
Filming at Funeral, Volleyball and Supper
Last Saturday, I was “tricked” to go down to MediaCorp earlier. CC called me at around 11am and told me to be there by 12pm. In order not to waste time, I even chased after the bus for nearly a stop. In the end, I waited there for more than two hours in the rain. …

I Get Weaker Each Day
I had not felt so weak before. At the beginning of the game, my chest got stuffy and I was useless. Together with my knee and arm problems, and sprained fingers, I did not have nice games and it sucked to make the team lose points. I did not know what happened but it certainly …
Facts about Friends
We played with fewer people. It was just nice number but much quieter. People were either injured, overseas, studying or “chicken winging”. I was so shocked because just one night ago, two over-packed cars of people were all so “steady” about playing together and on the very next day, they changed their minds. We confirmed …
The “Last Minute” Volleyball Game
I woke up and checked my phone which had been on silent mode for days or even weeks. I felt weird to receive Kok Chiang’s SMS to inform me that there was volleyball game at 6pm even though it was a holiday. I looked at the clock and realised it was less than two hours …
My Birthday 2007
I received two presents and an “ang bao”. Obviously, the “ang bao” was from my mum. The first present was a G-Shock watch and that was my first G-Shock even though many friends already had one when they were even in primary school. My team-mates bought the watch for me and another Baby-G for Ruoci. …
