why am i blogging at this hour? *grins* juz finish a round of mahjong with ziwei, danny, huiqing, ken and mitchelle. ziwei and ken shared one, danny and mitchelle shared the other. were mass chatting on msn when we decided to meet for supper followed by mahjong. been quite a while since i played coz adrian's gone missing. wonder why. back to the session with the mambo clique. the most sought after tile of the night was "hong zhong". it seems like no one was fated to "pong" the tile for the whole night. as soon as ziwei sat down, i knew things aren't gonna be good for me. 1stly, i'm he's "xia jia". *groans* 2ndly, he's one person who has never lost money when we played at the same table (at least not to me!). guess my intuition was pretty accurate. he "zi mo" 5 folds the very 1st round but that wasn't the highlight. the best one was the last round when he decided to give up his "cou ping" and "dan diao hong zhong"! and guess what?!? i was waiting for that same tile too! hence my happiness did not last when huiqing hit the tile out. juz couldn't believe he will do such a thing. on 2nd thoughts, should have guessed that this guy is always up to no good. *bleah* nevertheless, had a great time.

since i'm at the topic of mahjong, i shall share my list of top 3 most undesirable "shang jia".

1. who else but JEFFERY HOO! he's one guy that i believe i'm not fated to take his tiles. guess it's juz me. others (excluding adrian) don't really have this problem with him. sometimes i wish he would be nicer to me though i've mastered the skill of being independent. however, hafta be really careful when he starts throwing nice tiles for me.
   
2. RYAN XIE. someone that i admire in terms of mahjong skill. he's truly amazing plus his luck is good. he seems to be able to read people's mind and see through their tiles. hafta be pretty alert when playing with him. it gets kinda tiring to be defending all the time.
   
3. TAY JZE WEE. he has to be on the list. guess it's not so much of being my "shang jia", but more of his style of playing. it's really hard to decipher what he's thinking. one caution: NEVER believe his words, especially him. he's one cunning guy.

mahjong mahjong mahjong. when am i gonna play again? hands itching le. in the meantime, i better go catch up on my sleep for tonight's mambo! 4 more to go before zouk closes for renovation. good night!
