• Maryland Invitationals 2008

  What a long weekend.  I spent my time between 8am-6pm each day at the College Park tennis courts for this year’s Maryland Invitationals.  The MD club president had asked me to help run the tournament since he was probably gonna be busy playing, so I oblige.  Besides, it’s this type of stuff I want to do if I ever worked for USTA, so it was a fun experience. 

  

  Glad to see my old tennis club playing at a tournament again, although this weekend was not a good one for UMBC haha.  Oh well, it happens.  Some random pictures from this weekend (click to enlarge ):

  

  I was so happy to see so many old faces from CP (like Jimmy and Hiroko above).  I also finally got to see Catherine’s accapella group again after not having gone in over a year (which, btw, put on an amazing show).  For some reason I could never find someone to go with me, so thanks for coming with me Darrell!  Hanging out at CP with so many old friends brought back so many memories of when I used to be at CP all the time, to the point where I would call it my second home.  I have to say, it was a very nostalgic weekend.

  Anyways, I got some good news this morning; I’m being called back for a second interview with USTA next week!  Hopefully I won’t be as nervous this time around.  Thanks you to those who wished me luck last time; it apparently worked!   Feel free to wish me even more luck this time around :-
