peter gade

Yea!!! i took photo with one of the world's finest badminton player - PETER GADE. Woohoo!! So delighted.. And he's gd-looking too.. hehe.

Sheena and mel saw him yesterday nite when he went for training.. But they didn't take the photo wif him cos he was wif a coach... Ya, then i was like so jealous tt they get to even see him.. And Sheena was like 'i'm gg to take photo wif him to make ur jealous!' Ha, and now, i've already taken the photo wif him!!!

So today started out wif us doing the same thing. sitting at the corner, then if need arise, we'll have to ask the players to exit after their match ends.. But most of the time, we were juz stoning there... And it was freaking cold. So, i was like shivering at the last hr out of 5.

Then after our shift ended, which means all the matches of the day have been played, it was time to switch shifts wif lj and angie, who were doing venue training officers.. I took a look at their schedule, and DENMARK WAS THE FIRST TEAM TO USE THE COURTS!!!! yea!!! yup, so we stayed on to wait for them to come.. We even go to the entrance to see them enter one by one.. then, Peter Gade came!!! Woohoo! they came in a big grp, so cldn't get a chance to take pics.. So, afterwards, the 4 of us juz sat at the tables and watch the players train... And i kept wondering when peter gade will be free and alone..


The moment came! He took a shirt and walked towards the toilet alone. SO amanda and i followed him(it's my idea to follow, amanda agreed reluctantly..) So we waited outside.. there was no one, so it was the perfect opportunity to take the pic. THEN, he came out. he didn't really notice us until i asked to a photo wif him. BUT he said ' sorry i gtg... do a interview, take wif u later"(smthg liddat.. cldn't really hear) I was like.. ok... Did i mention, my heart was pumping freaking hard before, during and after i spoke to him?!

So we walked back to the tables diasppointed [i recalled a england rugger saying that to me, but in the end left hurriedly before i cld even take the photo wif him].. stoned there.. and i tried to study bio... FINALLY, the time was up, the team had to go, so when he walked towards the entrance( near out table), we stood up and walked towards him.. He saw us, so he came over, put the bag down. AND WE TOOK THE PHOTO!!! individually... me and him, then amanda and him... I was so overjoyed.. He even like, bend down slightly to be closer to us.. haha.. sweet.. and he placed his arms on our back.. as wat a normal caucasian wld do..

But i realised i didn't really make any eye contact wif him.. i was juz so happy the photo was captured on my cam.. haha.. Ya.. so yea!!! happy me!!!

Actually, i didn't even noe who he was until a month ago, when amanda told me abt him. if fact amanda didn't even noe how he look like, cos it's her fren who was crazy over him.. But, I did my research, and watched a couple of matches between him and lindan.. so i do noe smthg abt him now...

Yea, i'm a happy girl again!!! I juz enjoy doing these sort of events.. but i wonder what other sports events do spore hold? it's like... not much.... but anyways, i'm glad i did this.. can't wait for next yr's spore sevens.. haha..
