I lost my match (again). It reminded me of last year's tragic losses to Maris Stella and Si Ling. It is damn annoying when you're capable of winning but do not win. Again, I played three sets. The first set went to me, 21-19. I was like trailing my opponent (from ACS) almost the whole set when I suddenly came from behind and beat him to the set point. The next two games went off to him. I felt I could win but he did not give me a chance. He made a lot of costly errors too. He could easily smash and smash as in at a point when I can never get it. But most of them did not cross the net. If only... I had a second chance. Anyway, before my game, I watched Abdur (a year 2 guy in badminton) play a shortie. Abdur thought he was blessed to be playing a little guy and decided to be sporting. That was a very costly error. He went down in straight sets in just about 15 minutes. Brandon, Jens and Kiona also crashed out in the first round. Basically, NUS High is completely out of the tournament.
