All I did last weekend were shop, play, and gamble. Nothing spectacular really happened except that my mom won 10k in slot machine and eric took home 9k (in 2 consecutive days) from baccarat. I did not win, but that's okay I got so many 'balato' from them..and now, Im stuck at work. Its like Im being paid to surf the internet for 8 hours a day...got nothing else to do that's why Im creating a journal again.
I found a new tambayan, 'marbles', the billiard hall in Las Pinas. There was this girl na sobrang galing maglaro. Ung hawak sa cue stick at mag asinta, angas!!! Kainggit! and then may dumating na couple...angas den, ung case ng cue stick, ung porma, may papunas punas pa ng cue stick b4 magsargo. From there, we assumed these 2 are another good players. ..nagbreak...wow, kalat ang mga balls at all sides of the table...most likely, the one making the shot would finish the game with no problems at all...sumablay...ayy..then ung kasama naman ung tumira...scratch..bad shot...hay sayang..ganda p naman ng case at cue stick. As old saying goes, don't judge the book by its cover. Im sure by the tym gumaling n ung 2, to the extreme na ang angas nila.Don't get me wrong na porket di cla kgalingan mag billiards e, wala n clang karapatan umangas.Ofcourse, kanya kanyang trip lng yan. Basta, they look so mayabang when they look at other people's shot. Eric was then insisting me to play against the super galing girl. Ofcourse, I didn't dare to kahet doubles pa at kakampi ko c eric n sobrang galing. Yup, Mahinang klase, pro naman i'm not playing as much as I played b4 at wala na tlaga ung kumpiyansa sa tira ko. In the end, kaming 2 n lng ang nagpustahan. Syempre partida ko, I was playing so well but then again no matter how good I am, lampaso p ren un as compared sa tira ni eric. I ended up losing 2 sets of game. One thing I learned from this game (as taught by Eric),winning is not everything. In challenges like this, losing is a great part of the game. You would know how to handle pressure, you'll not be browbeaten by someone else's kaangasan, and you'll be a good sport. People who hated losing and those thinking that winning is everything can end up spoiling a game for everyone else. Talk about all the games of the experts....Efren 'bata' Reyes experienced so many lost fights b4 reaching the top. yeah right...pampalubag loob!!!A loser is still a loser... hahaha..joke...Nice game, I'll do better next time. :)
