Badminton, though it was not my cup of tea, I tried so hard to keep up my skills. Pavi is naturally blessed in it. I was chosen for the school team because I & Devi sprung a few surprises with the racquet in District games. Well, I'm not here to talk about the tournaments that I'd played[I could clear only the zonals, I was not-very-great-but-decent at it.] but the practice sessions we had had.
Bunked classes would equal the no. of attended classes. Despite of our English teacher Mrs. Glory's laments about our attendance every time we get a call from our PET Sir[I don't blame her, she's cared way too much for us] we were just desperate to bunk, adding a sting of jealousy to the rest of the classmates.
I could recollect...
The mixed doubles with Maharajan & Sarawin, which was so much fun because they went easy on us. And floppy games with Asha & Nisha(The Williams sisters of our school), the show-offs we do on the days of tournaments all dressed up for the games, the immense support we gave to Madhuvalan. The Veera sisters were very supportive too. We had cracked up laughing when Maharajan gave fake 'away' statements to a particular school girls when he was asked to keep a watch on the cock(which were well inside the courts), and so many more...
Even after we'd passed out Pavi was able to retain my name. [If she's reading this... weren't you, baby??] She brought laurels by winning at the State levels. Proud of ya!!
We had savoured every moment at the shuttle court. To my shock, it was renovated into a cycle stand when I last visited my school. How pathetic????
Bottomline - It was my beeping* game!
* you know what I mean.
It was not a cal from games sir.. Normally naga devi wil request us to call her also while bunking classes. Hence we wil cal u also.. But most of the time naga devi would come as she belonged to A class.. But as B class are all padips it was tough to take u out

ReplyDeleteHehe how sweet... Had happy tears(the day I read this not now :D) William sisters stuff hahaha you know what I mean :P .. And yeah the court is gone!! :'(.. These days they only give importance to volley ball now :(
@Maharajan
You gave a false decision actually when you were the line umpire in Vikasa school match :P .. It was during my district match :P .. Finally they found that you were Sivanars student and made some other guy sit in that position.. I even remember the way you told those girls to leave the cock as it is out hahaha :P
@Pavi
ReplyDeleteVolley ball ah? Athella oru game ah?
It's our game which had Ace priority.
@Maharajan
Yeah Devi is a silent killer. Class A was always better than B!
@Suds
We can't blame the school, Suds...We practically have so less space for a ground.
