Here is Groundwalker's journey in the WTA Tour 2011~ starting with DAY 1~
CC and I had our breakfast at Nasi Kandar Pelita around Hartamas before heading to Bukit Kiara Equestrian Club. We reached the club around 8.30am and went to meet Susan. CC immediately started his work as the Court Manager, who handles all the court bookings and the players/coaches trainings. I was appointed as the Player Lounge Manager once again just like last year where I will just sit at a table and service the players. My job scope is to ensure all players feel comfortable in the lounge by ensuring there are sufficient supply of mineral water and isotonic drinks, Wifi connection, all the information about the competition, and enough entertainment like the LCD TV and Galaxy Tab to keep them company :) The buffet is served in the same room and I am lucky to be able to just take the food when it is time for me to eat! I will introduce the yummy food on Day 2! So look out!!!
Most of the players are really nice but some are just mean or at least their coaches are. Some of the players are spoilt brats because they are very fussy and demanding on the court bookings and other small stuff. WTA has told us to be aware of this and told us to make sure that we follow the rules and not let the rest take advantage of us..and yes, we are trying our very best to please them at the same time, despite the rudeness and all that :D
Day 1 has been so-so as the players are just having their practices all day. The qualifying rounds to enter the main draw will actually start the next day on Day 2 and I wanna wish all WTA players all the best!!!
Oh oh I noticed a cute Japanese player who goes by the name of Erika Sema.. hehe.. it seems that she's Yurika Sema's younger sister! LoL CC and I think Erika is cuter ;) What do you think?
There were also complimentary Lancome coupons to be given out to the players where they will be able to go for a Multi-sensorial Treatment at either Bangsar Village or The Curve :)
You can check out the pics below~ Not many but you can imagine what my workplace is like ;)

*That is a nice waiter who looks so darn fierce over here. Well, he was kind enough to serve me that plate of buffet food.. even when I had not ask :)*The last meal I had for the day was around 9pm and we were done by 930pm. After work, CC dropped me off at Aunt Farah's place for Qis's surprise partay. I was so tired and blur. Looked like a zombie as I crept in. I climbed up the stairs, up 3 floors till I reached the party area and once I did, a few of my adik adiks turned around and screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeamed!!! "LUKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU'RE HEREEEEEEEEEE!!! WE NEEED YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!". Before anything else happened, I quickly walked up to the birthday girl and give her a birthday hug..SURPRISE!!! LOL.. Well, It seems they were battling the boys and the boys were bullying them. Everybody started asking me to go up and dance..and so, I stretched a lil and went in the middle to start dancing.Hm..what song was it? OMG..BIEBER!!! Ewww~ LOL but despite it being a Bee Ber song, I didn't care as I knew that I could dance to any possible song :) So, I gave the crowd what they wanted and totally ripped the battle apart especially with my girly n jazzy moves. I know..it's a lil crowd pleasing but maybe eww at the same time but oh well, everybody had fun XD that's the whole point! The boys who got down in front of everyone reminded me of myself a few years ago.. time flies and I've realized that I have learnt so much and worked so hard to become the dancer I am today and I am glad and proud of myself :)
After that, different people started teaching the crowd different dance styles like broadway, ballet, tap and urban dance style. I was dead tired..so I just sat around teaching people a lil popping and waving :) They also played taboo while I just watched them scream n shout n go crazy..
*Mae, Tariq, Me, Qis*
*Birthday girl and I :) Happy 18th Bday Qis! xoxo*
*Dancing to Grease's "Summer Loving"*
*My sis getting all excited over the game, Taboo*
*He's actually a giant*
*Stress giler lah!*
*Faces of enthusiasm*As it got a lil late, my family and I called it a day and went home.. ah..so tiring but I enjoyed my day..loved it as much as I could :) did you?
That's all for Day 1.. and for now.. Look out for Day 2!!!
Groundwalker out~
