WSS camp was quite fun .. and i am truly glad if it is gonna be my last camp. It was mostly trainer-based, hence we coaches had plenty of time to ourselves. I am genuinely thankful of the coaches for this camp because they were the faces i started coaching with, and it's good to end with them.

Now i need time to recuperate and get my energy. Super lethargic and tired today. Gonna take the Vietnam trip to recharge.

As expected, Modern Warfare 2's playing time was short. But after thinking it over, there were plenty of episodes, it's just that gamers are hopelessly hooked onto the story, carrying on one after another such that it seems to end too fast.

Nevertheless, story and gameplay were wow. The streets and alleys of Rio De Janeiro, gunfight on snowmobiles, killing of civilians as a bad-guy mole in the airport, being betrayed, sniping alongside Captain Price once again, rappelling and assassinating, being in a full-blown war in the White House, and the final scenes ... Terrific game.

I think Modern Warfare 3 will pick off with the unfinished business with the Russian badass.

Seriously, i've lost track of Tiger and his girls. He could probably write a full-length book about it and make another million out of it. So many spill-outs and rumours. I wonder when this will all end.

Wednesday's poker was way good man. Players' plays have evolved and my luck wasn't running good either, but i am proud i was pretty disciplined throughout the 10 hours of play. Was down quite a bit and was up quite a bit also. Guess that's what they meant by it all even out.

Just bought COD Modern Warfare 2. Can't wait to piang piang piang!

So, i supposed that would be my last public camp in a long long time. In a way, i am glad that this camp takes up that spot ... with the many familiar faces and it being one of the most memorable camps ever.

Hell of a camp.

Did many crazy things. Radical ones. Yet a part of me was relaxing because there didn't seem to be too much of a consequences. And the shaggedness felt every morning indicated i am indeed growing old. So many key characters. Each of us could probably replicate one of our participant's 'signature move'.

A camp that went on too smoothly wouldn't be memorable. I am glad for all the politics initially because they brought us tighter. It also allowed the company to improve.

There were so many laughing points across the days. For once, i didn't care about an empowering name for my group. My Busan and Zhang's Busi definitely started things off. Hmmm maybe not, Don's King of the Hill from the previous camp was constantly a source of amusement. Then there was Huat's Serdako, Fai's rocker/monkey and the girl hopelessly in love with him, Cheryl's funny-sound bui bui, Martina's boxer boy, Zhang's sibei-auntie beggar-wannabe, Max's 3-months pregnant boy, and my ever-easily-tilted boy ...

And that parent incident. It's unfortunate to find so many parents being overprotective, especially over their 'baby-love'. These kids grow up too sheltered and self-centered that everything gotta go their way. Seriously they need some waking up.

Then we had that microphone-snatching event during the giving out of certificates ... which i think it was the first time ever in history. Adam's face was epic. =p

Once again, i would like to thank the awesome coaching team ... Bong, Chan, Kristy, Lilian, Theresa, Francesca, Huat, Joanne, Zhang, Martina, Wen Cong, Fai, Pris, Don, Fiona, Max, Reshmi, Cheryl, and Kareen.

Awesome memory.
