wooozzzzie... just gt bck from KL ytd after participating a weekend Magic the gathering Grand Prix @ Kuala Lumpur!!!

before i cont, i belive some pple will have qns in their mind like: why is he still playing those trading card games, izzit it suppose to be childish game? Waste of money etc...

In fact, i had tt mindset too b4 i decided to go bck into trading games 2 years ago.
1st: Trading card games=kids=childish? DEFINITELY NOT! People from all walks of life are enjoying those games! It sets u thinking, brainstorming for new ideas to come out with a deck of cards. And not to forget, you get to win USD for big tournaments!!!!
2nd: Waste of money? hmm..not say waste but rather investment. money is not wasted if you managed them properly, buying cards that you need and not wants. apart frm it, you will get to borrow cards frm your friends/playgroup which in turns will reduce ur expense as well=)!!! haah

Cont..
I went KL with my playgroup, daniu-zhaozhi-ahgoh-alvin-alex-chaolin. It was the 1st time the playgroup went for overseas competition together and certainly there was alot of fun & laughter!
Took a budget flight there which took only about 50 mins, super fast sia.
Competition took place at midvalley hotel and we came to know tt the whole hotel rooms were fully booked ==. lucky we booked early =P
Stayed at the top floor, peaceful and comfortable.

So off we played on Sat, Day 1.
Only zhaozhi manage to get into Day 2 after 8rounds swiss. Some of the remaining people's score are so close yet so far, missing entry to Day 2 by mere 1 game. Zhaozhi went up to a great spree to his 4th win of the day before falling of at round 5 (if i didnt rmb wrong), thus failed to qualify for the top8 playoff.
Nevertheless, congrats to him as he still find his way to top 25(i think =T), earning himself a gd USD$400!!!! shiok uh...

There's a shopping mall which so much like our vivo+orchard. Alot of shops and restaurants! The food there is so much affordable compare to SG.
A Macdonald's student meal in SG = A Popeye's Combo meal in MSIA !!!
