Evening activity..

I have not played bowling for a while and then too just for fun during the practice sessions with my friends who were representing d batch in our alumni's tournament..







When Amal called this morning to say that they were going to have a practice in the evening, I said I'd try to make it..and I did..,


n b'cos I was not prepared, I played by donning d pants with baju kurung top that I wore to work..haha..







It was bad at first, I even had to ask Ruzi to show me how to handle the 9lbs ball that I wanted to use..haha...






When the final game over, the score sheet for one group :





and the other (including mine at the bottom..hehe..)




Not bad I guess, from 80+ in d 1st game to 102 in 2nd and 117 in 3rd, :-)

Its "beginner's luck", I told my frens..


Based on that, Rozie wanted me to take her place but I can't represent my batch, the actual games in d tournament would make me nervous,

..I know my limit, reserve player is ok but as long as I know that I don't have to play!...hehehe..






mmm..I think I pushed it too hard, am not feeling too well now

~ my thumb, wrist, knees , and having a slight fever..




Going to have an early night..

Currypuffs n morning news..

Been seeing currypuffs all over, but don't have time to make it like "I amsterdam" or "Kakasma" :-) ...used to love making it (read eating..haha) ever since I watched my mother made it when I was small.

During that waiting time, fried veggie for dinner :
