Tonight - Table Tennis and Debate

Tonight, the 3 of us practice table tennis again. No other players from other department came. We have the table for ourselves. I won 16 out of 18 sets (11 balls). I lack fury and momentum. I am not moving enough. May be it is due to frequent changes of opponent (the loser will rotates). When 1 left, the 2 of us have more serious practice, playing full 21 balls match. This time, I am at my best, winning 5 straight sets, move a lot and attack with great fury (狮子搏兔,全力以赴). If I can maintain this level of play, I will be happy. I prefer playing singles, instead of double. Preferring to rely on myself, am I anti-social? I hope not.

Reaching home, it is almost 9.30pm. After bathing, I turn on my recorded program on debate. It is a Hong Kong University vs a Taiwan University. Such enough, the best speaker 黄执中 from Taiwan performed very well, he spoke in a calm and clear way, support with powerful examples. It is a close fight as the debate title does not favour either side, it is ‘专才比通才更吃得开’. I predict that Taiwan will win 3 to 2 votes. Unfortunately, it is the other way, Hong Kong won 3 to 2 votes. It will be Hong Kong vs China for the next round. It is good match, but the starting is poor, both side’s first speaker stutter when they define the term and introduce their points and grounds, and they are referring to their notes far too frequently. They should have practice enough to speak smoothly without referring in such important matches.

It is late and I felt tired… to bed now…Sweet dream (to myself).
