OK, gotta stop complaining and start counting my blessings. Well, today, didn't do much coz still suffering from lack of sleep in trying to restore Sam's laptop. But all's well that ends well, praise God..
I played my 2nd 6.0 mixed doubles match yesterday (1 Mar) at 12 noon @ CSF for Malini's team. This time around, partnered Atul and I was substituting for Ritu who called in sick at the last minute. There's a flu bug going around so, I am not surprised. We played against our own sister team and won in 3 sets with scorelines of 3-6, 6-3, 1-0 (super tiebreak 10-6). It was a tough match coz in the 1st set, Atul wasn't very comfortable returning our opponents' topspin shots but slowly, he pulled himself together and that made all the difference in the 2nd and 3rd set. He deserves the credit coz he hung in there altho at one point in the 2nd set, when we were down 0-3, he said he felt very small. But I told him, it's only a game, no big deal whether we win or lose. Of course winning is better lah but if cannot win, that's ok by me. From then on, he buckled up and just kept returning all the shots that was fired at him and won many points and indeed, victory and credit goes to him for his effort.
After my tennis, came home and caught up with my email replies and had a slow and leisurely evening watching American Idol result show with Sam.
