Pool at school
Saturday, June 24, 2006
On Thursday we went to the cue club in school to play pool. It was pretty fun. The only bad bit was that we only got to play 1 and a half games before returning back to school. I teamed up with Beth and we took on Patrick and Kirsten. The girls did not know how to play and it took a while before they got the hang of it. I finally sunk the first ball after about 15 shots which everyone jsut hit the ball as hard as they could. There was another period where no balls were sunk and slowly, we edged our way to the lead. Beth sunk the white ball about 3 times and finally when she sunk the right ball, there was a huge celebration. Finally, after a couple of flukey shots and some pure skill, we were down to the black ball while Patrick and Kirsten were on their last red ball. The balls were side by side in the corner and it seemed like they were wedged into the corner. After a couple of shots by everyone trying to get the red/black ball out, it was my shot. The white ball was in the middle of the Table so it was very difficult. I was too short to reach over so I was basically leaning on the table horizontal and made my shot. It was a soft one and touched the black ball rolling into the pocket to collect the win. Yay.
That was the only highlight of this week. Everything else has been boring and the work load is getting a bit too much lately. I also bought my carbon fibre poolstick to play with and somehow, I ended up not playing with it. Next time i might just leave it at home.
Anyway, soccer finals on tonight and Australia playing Italy on Monday night. Its gonna be hell sick.
Gotta go now

I have found a flaw in your riddle:
"PRS (& sometimes Q) are my initials"
That's incorrect. The initials to what you gave me are 'TSOTTK'.
No wonder I couldn't get it....sheesh -

It was 'prs'...not tsottk...maybe it was a glitch in the site or something like that. Anyway, even if u had the letters prs, your still would not have got it right. :)
