Badminton

I agreed to play with them after a year of not touching a racket. Two days ago, since my Test 2 had officially ended, I went to play badminton with Alex, Sanly, Kenny and Ming Chong in K15.

It was fun as my childhood memory started to flash back. If I'm not mistaken, I started playing badminton when I was three; trained by my father who is an avid badminton player. He won a lot of trophies back then. At that time, we were still staying in Felda Serting, Negeri Sembilan. I still remember I played with my dad somewhere near to the dining room with a door leading to the middle section of the wooden house compound. During my primary school life, I played it occasionally with my brother until we get closed with my cousin brother, BHL and thus, we started to play badminton almost every evening beside the shophouse and at the back alley for years. Sometimes, my parents would join in after work. Also, I still remember I went to badminton training class before and the warm-up session was lethargic! After shifting to the new house when I was in my 5th Form, I seldom indulged myself in badminton anymore. Besides, during my second semester in UPM, I played badminton with my college mates for a few times, and I stopped playing again when I stayed in Old Flat until two days ago, I played for the first time after a year of inactivity in badminton! My joints are in pain until today-.-.. I guess playing badminton takes a greater toll to one's body compared to jogging! Anyway, I really was enjoying myself that night.

Memory of my childhood is just so nostalgic.
