Tennis Match on 13 March 2005

People asked me to report on the tennis matches yesterday, how shall I
write? My brain was totally blank when I was in the match, and I was too
nervous (or concentrate?) in helping the Umpire for line watching that
hadn't noticed how the other players performance (in details) in their
matches!

OK, I can talk on my own matches, and the mysterious novel starts below.

The first match was with Duncan. I saw him playing in the previous match
with others before, and I knew that he is a skilful and tough guy. I knew I
had no chance to win him, but would like to know how far our difference
would be.

I did the first serve in the first game. Luckily, I served not bad though
not very good, but it passed the net and dropped in the serve box anyway.
Good start. Duncan hit back and I return and on and on (actually no idea of
details, he he he). Goddess of Luck was on my side, as he didn't notice my
weakness (a $5000 secret), and Duncan was confused with my style of playing
too that he couldn't outplay me with his better skill, something like "a rat
wants to pull a tortoise", his power was exercised but on nowhere......

Four games finished with several deuces, and 2-2.

The fifth game started with big big problems. A consecutive THREE double
faults, ends with 40-null. What happened to my Goddess? Duncan, did your
Evil Devil seduced away my Goddess? I could see your face was so cool......

bing bai ru san dao 兵敗如山倒, the fifth game ends quick, so quick that it
finished after I accidentally blink my eyes on the flying ball....... 3-2.

The six game, my god, not yet finished? I was exhausted since I could only
play 15 minutes in every game / match! haleluya....Duncan you were going to
kill me but I wouldn't allow you to beat me easily. If I should die, I
should die with the glory (of a professor of something............, no no
no, not hero, definitely wrong word).

No matter how hard I fight back, or how sweet that I smiled to Duncan, he
wouldn't let me go. All of a sudden, the six game ended and 4-2.

End of match.

Alright, you are better and you win the game. What? don't bother me OK? I
was in bad mood.....555555 (hey, 5 is a funny number, why? the Chinese
pronounce 5 as wu which is a crying sound so means sad, but the Thais
pronounce 5 as ha which means happy!)

Anyway, resting time...wait a minute, what do you mean I can't rest? I have
to play with Elsa again? It is not fair! OBJECTION! Ivan, I paid you $500
on Thursday, didn't we have some arrangement? OK, tell me how much Elsa
pays you spooky head (it is how my little son called me)

Elsa's match details.....TOC (please see Table of Content.......Oops, I mean
to be continue).
