I like chumming around at my friends’ place. It is the time when we can have some private and enjoyable time together, having fun and catching up among one another. To me, kebab is simply irresistible, because of the sheer tenderness and juiciness of the meat.

ABOUT ME


SEA GAMES EVENT(S)


My father introduced badminton to me. There was no stopping since then. As I won in competitions, my interest just grew. Most of the time, I burn the candles at both ends managing the demands of academic work and sports. Getting a break from training and going out with friends will ideally make my dream come true!

Upon return from overseas competition, I become a gourmet. Together with my girlfriend, we usually go out to-gether hunting good local food together. Timbre and Wave House are my top choices of relaxation. The music kind of eased the strain off after a hectic day of badminton training.

I realise that I can play badminton when my friends and I enrolled in community club classes. Over the years I hone my ability to be on par with competitive athletes. I frequently unwind at East Coast Park. Strange enough, my worries seem to evaporate at the sight of the expansive beaches and sea.
