Before I begin with my post .I'd like to thank all my bluddy's (This is a new term coined for Blog Buddies) , pals and visitors to this blog , for there appreciation they gave me on renovation of my blog! Indeed, a good experience and experiment in life.
Adding, nothing specific , yet everything that has fallen in life so far, is because of my freewheeling behavior , emotions and not the least my thought process.. whoops! In other words , I'm liberated , still young (oh yea.. of course!) and oh so chic!
There are certain epiphanous moments in your life when you witness an event or scene , which could appear very mundane , but transform you so totally that its effects reverberate forever. Applying easy shadow isn't as easy as it may look..lolz!;) No more justification, though. I have just started up with a new 'category' in my life's 'menu' and that is.. Sports!
Since childhood ,the most annoying and boring stuff to me was ,sports . No offence to hurt anyone. But, it has never been able to interest me. Although , I use to play gulli-cricket and soccer with my cousins , only in summer vacations.
In retrospect, I think ,I could have done things differently. A bit earlier , of course. Anyways, sometimes life gives you a chance, to live it bi-directionally but , not always .I am afraid , if I'll become a cinematographer !
Badminton, that's the game I am playing these days. Its good , actually very good. Well, most of you what the game is all about .But, here are some specific terms used in the game .Here it is:-
1. Angled Drive Serve- I did that first day ,only!
2. Backhand Low Serve - Most enthusiastic shot!
3. Bird - umm..
4. Deuce - Many a times, indeed. [hehe]
5 .Double Drop ,Fault - Pathetic Fallacy!
6. Flick Serve, Forehand Smash - On training !
7. Let, Lob, Rush , Smash - Just see man ..this one shuttlecock is such a cynosure!
8. Love All - hehe..dymbo! Its ,'Equal Scores'.
9. Net Shots - Nope..I don't like it.
Talent is valuable , yet individual brilliance rarely leads to success. I always knew, I've a hidden talent for badminton somewhere or the other .So ,playing in a Badminton Court finally, was more or less like a dream come true. Words escape me to describe the beauty and feelings one come across in giving a perfect shot! When I won a single's game .I was in cloud No.9. The opponent , was a state player. His face was the face of the day! My coach , Mr.Ali screamed at him and congratulated me. Then, some politics run over among the other state players . To tell you a fact, these players are just 16-18 years old . They play so smoothly, smartly and in a dexterous way , that anybody would like the game. My favorite players are Naved , Vijayendra and a few more. Naved, is a very dear friend and helps me out sometimes, with the twist and turns of the game. While , others are just so coach-boys!
Alternatively, I play with some uncle's also ,who are from 40 years to 75 years of age ! They play it very differently . I got to to learn those smash shots from them, its very tempting.
A few days back, I was very upset over some personal issue of mine. And, the old jumbo players invited me to play a double game .I refused. Though ,they did not excused me , but gave me my time to get charged and play with them. Nawaz Uncle , came and asked if I m ok. He's a terrific player , no one is best than him . He was a national player of his time. A great player. Later, I started a double's game with other players . I played very well that day. Naved's comment were ,' Aaj kya baat hai didi bahot josh agaya hai aapko.' This 16 year old kiddo , is a toofan mail ! Wish him luck for his future.
Well, the game is going good now. Hopefully, nothing runs out here. Lets see, if you put on your channels one day, and see me..ok don't laugh!
