WE ARE GOING TO THE WMC 2010!

Ok, that is, if we complete our registration, pay up on time, and no major hiccups occur between now and August 2010. I am crossing all my fingers and toes and everything else. But otherwise, yes, we will be playing mahjong with the rest of the world in Utrecht come August. SB will be scolding me for tempting the fates by announcing our advent out loud before it has even been confirmed.

I am actually feeling very much intimidated at the thought of playing in an international tournament like this. Now that things are moving forward, I am starting to question whether I am actually ready for this step after all. But, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Well, there is always EP, so even if I end up at the bottom, no one can say that Singaporeans cannot play mahjong properly.

And now, I have about a thousand things to do. Get a proper photograph of myself, earn money for the trip, and upgrade my internet connection so that I can train my ass off online before the tournament. A placing of 200 out of 220 is all I am hoping for. Surely not too much to ask, right?
