Hello everyone.
School is going to start again soon. Don't know if everyone have enjoyed their holidays! I guess most people would think that the holiday is too short even though is almost 3 months long -.- including the YOG hols.
Anyways, what's a better way to spend the last few days of your holidays than catching a nice movie! But there's not much movie out there now right =S
There's the Legend Of The Fist: The Return Of Chen Zhen which have been out for awhile already. I haven't watch it, wonder if it's good. I looks like a typical fighting show again with lots of kung fu action like the previous 2 Ip Man. I think its a little over.., the way they are trying to make use of the Ip Man hype. At first Ip Man 1 was good, then Ip Man 2 makes me excited and want to watch it too. Then comes the young version of Ip Man -.-... the one that is NOT starring Donnie Yen. Then now he go act some similar to Bruce Lee movie. Lol. The rating is good though.
Other than that movie, there is 2 really great chinese movies that I would recommend watching. I have watched them myself. Er one is Detective Dee which is really good. The story line is nice and the action is good too, except one part where they are fighting and I think the effect is too weird cause I don't understand what is going on. And there is also Reign of Assassins! The trailer looks nice. The movie is great too... only until the later part where you realise... the whole movie revolves around an eunuch trying to regain his lost private part... Yea it's stupid but the movie is nice.
Some good ang moh movies I think will be very worth watching would be Eat, Pray, Love & The Other Guys. The first movie would be a story about life and romance I guess. I think the book would be alot better than the movie though, but if you are not a reader, I guess watching the movie would suffice. The second movie seems to have rather high ratings also... it stars The Rock (now calls himself Dwayne Jonhson.. Fancy name). From the comments I read I think it's just the usual funny movie that is nice to watch with friends. The trailer is pretty funny, though I think it took the few funniest parts out of the whole movie.
Movies I will NOT watch will be Buried (heard that it's a movie with only 1 scene, a guy in the coffin) and Charlie St Cloud (Watch only if you love Zac Efron).
Of course there are many other movies out there now like Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps and The Girl Who Played With Fire. Hope you guys have enjoyed your holidays and maybe end it with a great movie!
Happy Holidays,
TK
P.S. Don't forget to pay $105 Tennis Fee, Coach needs to eat too.

Quotes for everybody
Hey guys!
ITS OCTOBER! A WHOLE NEW MONTH!!
Its me again weijie(: Im here to kick start a new month with a post
I have no idea what im going to talk about and so I am going to talk about a book i read recently with some quotes that i find them meaningful in your daily life and you might even use it as your motivation to play tennis better!
Here goes the first one, " No pain, no gain". Its a simple quote that almost all of you out there has heard of it before. The message is clear, if you do not work hard for what you desire, you will most likely not be able to achieve your goals. In tennis, you might think as chasing for every ball and not giving up. There is hope of winning a point when the ball is being played back. It would be tiring, but you would gain by winning the point or eventually the game. So remember this when you are about to give up on something.
"Genius is 1% inspiration, 99% perspiration". Roger Federer is no Genius in tennis without the training he has been through. Again, working hard is the key to success. So guys, attend training to improve yourself to become the best and perspire away!! :D
The last quote is " A life spent making mistakes is not only more honourable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing". I think this is the most important quote among these 3. Don't be afraid to make mistakes during training as u would become a better player while making them. You would be able to learn more rather than sticking to just one way which might not be the best. Learning through mistakes to me is the best way to remember them.
That's all for this week! Let me know how you think about this post!
Hope you like it(:

Club T is READY!
OK, We have just received the club T-shirts, so we should be distributing it to you guys this couple of weeks.
Anyway just some information from our supplier:
When washing the shirt, DO NOT scrub it (So I guess just put it in the washing machine...)
And also turn it inside out before you wash it or put it in the washing machine. I think because the printings will come out if you scratch it too much.
One last BIG reminder... If you have not paid for your shirt, please do so NEXT WEEK.
No money No shirt.

yes, the camp planning is still in progress, so book those days off your calendar and reserve them for the camp alright? :D
let me leak you into a little more on our camp...
do you know that the tennis club hadn't had a camp in like dunno how many freaking years?!
so it's like, finally someone is organising a camp!
so, appreciate our kind efforts and do come down for the camp alright?
it took us a lot of time and effort to plan for the camp...
OKAY. ENOUGH CRAP. NOW FOR THE DETAILS!
other than a barbeque, which we are still planning in progress and thinking of back up plans in case it rains! (so dear god, please don't let it rain on the first day please... or else!)
and what else?
hmmmm, there would be games played (definitely) and hopefully you would enjoy the games that we have planned.
and no, don't think that movie watching is BORING. cuz i am assuring you, it's not. and nopes, it is not to kill time either. it is gonna be exciting...
and what else is awesome about this camp? we would be trying to book the camp in the loft, so that you all would get great accommodations! (in case you don't know what is the loft, GOOGLE IT... nahs. im kidding. im telling YOU! the loft is a place that you get to stay in school and it is something like an apartment all to yourself! (okay, maybe not. you may be sleeping with your friends! equally awesome right?) but nopes, guys and girls are NOT allowed to be sleeping together, in case you're thinking you can sleep with some hot people or something, yeah sure. just make sure they are the same sex with you.)
it's a short camp, really short. 3 days 2 nights only. it's just 3 days of fun and games.
okay. i think i've filled you with enough details, at least enough for you to want to come down for the camp right?
rest assured, you are guaranteed to have fun! :D
