On Thursday a group of us went to a badminton court where some of the CCS staff taught us how to play. It was a lot of fun and the other players on the courts got a good laugh watching us. Oh, and the birdies we played with were made out of real feathers.
The highlight of the experience was definately Asher and his Team USA outfit. Short jean shorts with boxers hanging out the bottom, black shirt with USA stitched into it by him and last, but not least, a jean head band. I believe he found the right combination for the 2008 Team USA badminton jersey.
I attempted to play Alice and she kicked my butt. My excuse is that she played in high school and this was my first time. We played one game were we kept score and I was able to score a few points. We then just hit the birdie back and forth and it became very apparent that she was being nice to me in the game cause she started to kick my butt even more.
Oh well, at least I had fun.
