one moment of sillyness

with a address such as silly sebby, i do have to live up to some expectations huh? with a history of silly acts that joey (from friends) would be proud of, though i must say not at the same frequency as him, nowhere near.

so, a recent rather silly act occured, and someone suggested that i should post it here.

so for those that doesn't know, i play ultimate for a local club known as chuckies and we train thurs sats. so last sat, the sky decided to unleash itself.  its been ages since i played in such wet and cold condition. my hands can barely sweep the water fast enough from my eyes to prevent it from obstructing my view. every moment not moving allows the chill to move up and down the spine. every lightning and thunder combination sends chilling thoughts to the head, about how a frisbee player once died while playing ultimate in singapore.

anyway, the rain stopped not long after, leaving behind pools of water that resemblance more of a vietnam padi field than a frisbee field. i am never the most comfortable on the disc, and even more so during wet conditions. picking up a turnover, i took special care and effort to dry the disc while walking to the line. next thing i know, i dropped the disc back into the puddle while trying to switch hand, much to the delight of xinhong, who cant stop laughing at the sideline. i was trying to stopped her from laughing anymore, so much so that i forgot to concentrate on passing the disc.. and it fell short. to make things even more pathetic, i layed out, miss the disc, the opponent scored the final point of the day, and i went home with  more serious than usual scratches that bleed and remain wet for a long time.

well.. the good thing is i found this whole thing rather amusing.. rather than feeling pathetic..
