hah, i love badminton, i used to play all the time, reeeaally tiring sport.
did you have a partner? or did in fact beat them in a 2 on 1, cause that would make you a shuttle-god

i beat them on my own, of course. and my brother-in-law today as well and i wasn't even trying hard. he was sweatin'! hehe
but i have to say, i'm not that good. i wasn't that bad in my county in my school-days but i never made it to national tournaments (about a decade ago). and it rouined my knees. i have to say, i like it again now... but i had reasons besides my knees to stop playing where i used to play. ah, well. as long as it's for the craic it's brilliant... i hope i'll be able to do this more regularly this semester because i guess it'll be quite packed with uni, work, choir and my music project and maybe something else... which would have to do with sign language. let's see...

^ Way to go, Jo! I haven't played badminton in sooo long, wonder if my parents still have the set. I'm currently trying to learn to play tennis, hubby got us all rackets for Christmas this year, so we've been going to the neighborhood courts and hitting the balls around, I'm so terribly bad at it but it's still fun. And the kids always chase after the balls so we never have to run to get one that is out of bounds

i've never tried tennis but i might some day try to play a bit with my brother-in-law.
where we were playing badminton today is a tennis-court right next to it and you actually have to pass through it to get out of that complex again. and there were people playing tennis there today as well and they used their dog to chase after the ball. always handy to have someone to do that job for you, isn't it?

i LOVE badminton - used to be on the school varsity team (where i won most valuable single & most valuable doubles awards!)
i bought my husband a set for father's day a few years ago, we set it up every summer, spray paint a regulation court on the lawn, and play extreme badminton! |

Let´s face it, I´m an ass. I have the attention of a cailín an-álainn and what happens? We end up discussing Marx, John Stuart Mill and Plato.
I also have to admit that I kinda enjoy being an ass.

The curious case of Benjamin Butthole
No, no, I am an ass...in last july I met a nice girl (she was at least seven or eight years older than moi) on a film set, and we kinda got along very well throughout the whole day. Afterwards, when we split, she gave me her adress and her phone number on a card, plus a surprising kiss on the cheek... Since then, I haven't called back, I always wanted to but I didn't feel very well due to some private stress after july, in october I felt better, so I made some attempts, I did try to look up where she lives, but I didn't ring the doorbell and, like I mentioned, didn't call her...
How dumb and how cowardish...

ps: "plus a surprising kiss on the cheek". was it that surprising? we give kisses on the cheek everytime we meet someone. a hello kiss and a goodbye kiss... this makes me curious...

Normally, I would just come up with something, but I have no idea what to say to her if I call her or stand in her door ("the first words" are the problem here) and that scares me. Probably has to do with me feeling embarrassed for waiting so long... Quote:

^ Here in the US, we generally shake hands if we've only just met someone, though if it someone we are close to we hug or kiss on the cheek (which is always so awkward for me, as I am a bit under five feet tall, they have to bend way down and I have to get up on my tip-toes . . .) Anyway, when I was a freshman in college I had a friend named Stefan, and we'd always hug good-bye. His roommate, who was from the Middle East, hung out with us a lot too, so one day I gave his roommate a hug too. Well, Stefan came up to me the next day and told me that his roommate was Muslim, and not to hug him anymore - he'd NEVER hugged a girl before that was not a close relative, it made him very uncomfortable because it was like kissing to him, etc. I was so embarrassed! I had grown up in a very un-diverse small town, the only Muslim guy I knew had no problem with hugging girls, lol.

^ A close friend of my mother-in-law does that, I was kinda surprised the first time she kissed me on the lips. Her husband is really tall, well over 6 feet, and once ended up kissing me on the top of my head, lol.

Today the danish Rhythmic Music Conservatory send out letters to the 196 applicants of their 3-year songwriting class - 15-20 of whom will get to an acceptance conversation, whereof 6 applicants will enter the course - and am one of the 196, uuuaaaarrrghhh... I am so nervous and really expecting a rejection, but i would really like to enter this class as I'd like my life to contain more music and less dayjob... Exciting!

^ do that. but make sure to remember the way you did it so that you'll be able to loosen the knot again. this is a security announcement. better make a plan before you try to fulfil your promise so that you'll be able to come back to that in case you forget. otherwise something terrible might happen to you!

what does "have a lecture" mean? i know it´s an expression for a college situation, but i want to understand the whole situation, cause i think we don´t have that in here. i´m just curious.

it's just when a room is filled to the brim with students, trying to fit into a room made for about half the amount of them to listen to a professor talking about something that might or mightn'd interest them.
oh, yes. i forgot! at the end of the term you usually have an exam about what he/she told you and maybe some additional literature... depends on what's asked of you...actually, the situation with this lecture is not that bad. we all have a seat and enough space to breathe...
