All England

Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong the Malaysian team defeated China team, Cai Yun-Fu Haifeng 21-15, 21-18.

And the winner goes to MALAYSIA....

Last nite me and abah ajer yg ada kat rumah and both of us were jumping up and down(exegurrate hehehe) when they announce that our mens double team won the gold medal for All England...the adrenalin rush was soo great we could hardly control our emotion(exegurrate lagi)



anyway, badminton has been a part of our life(for those who know our family..) it's like the only match that all the family members could enjoy and understand the rules...it started with abah loving it so much and the rest of anak-anak abah follow...ye la since the tv is abah's, we dont have much say in the programs that he choose to watch(selalu tuh gaduh gak ler but when it come to badminton's match no way hose...)eventually abah's love for the game rub off on us (the children)...speaking of badminton and how abah loves the game, it brought back some long lost memories that i had when i was a young and teeny tiny girl...



that was the year 1992 where the malaysian team won the thomas cup( i believe that was the last year that we won that cup...pls correct me if i'm wrong) and of course all the malaysian were very pround of the achievement and they had this so called tour around malaysia parading the cup...and i could say that most of my friends were really teruja with all the players(masing2 nak jadi cam foo kok keong and the siblings of sidek family...and yg paling tak tahan cute2 girls like us have dreams to become rashid sidek's girlfriend...yikes...) so back to the story...abah being a great fan of badminton, he brought us (the whole lot..me,abg, cha, yah, haikal ,huzaifah,yong pi ka? tak sure la yong ikut ker tak) to KOMTAR where the team will make a stop and people could see the cup up close...huh nama jer up close but i could only glimpse the cup ...manusia punya la ramai...and me,cha and yah siap bawak buku autograph tuh ...konon nak suruh rashid sidek sain ler hahahah that was ssssooo the very funny.....so i guess the passion that we(abah's children) have in us(passion on the things that we like) comes from abah...he will do his best to achive whatever things that he loves to do....badminton in this case ler...



another incident regarding badminton and thomas cup happend on the same year where we went to kl(central market) and there was an exhibition about again the thomas cup (the winning shuttlecox betul ker eja nih?) and the history of the game....so i was just looking around and abang was nearby...so we were close together and was so engross with the things in front of us...then one of the artist kat cm tuh bleh tanya soalan bodo bleh tak...ada ker patut dia tanya kat abg...girlfriend ker?eee dengan muka marah nih i said ooiitt adik la @$%&$%....i was 11 years old jer time tuh eeehhh sungguh kurang sopan...hahaha but all in all i had a great memories about thomas cup and watching badminton with abah....last nite agak kurang syok skit sbb abah and me jer...and abah altho how excited he may be during the tournament, maintain cool jer as if that he couldnt be bothered with the game....padahal dalam hati tak brenti berdoa tuh hahahha...
