there can be miracles....when u believe... =D

heh..its been quite a long time since i last heard that song by whitney houston and mariah carey.. i lurrve that song! =) and i actually like britney spears.. eventhough she is going through some rough times this past few years..but somehow(i seriously dont know why) she will get through it and become a better person! maybe even better than before =p eventhough i just see her on tv, and dont know much bout her.. heh.. i think she's just confused =p lol. oh myyy..why am i blogging bout her.. =p

in the afternoon i played chess with my dad..thich is a very rare occasion =p lol.. and as expected, i lost =p lol.. i kept on giggling while playing..i couldnt be serious! =p and i would scream when my pieces were being eaten.lol. ok, there were a few important comments from my dad:
1) every move u make, there should be a reason =p .
( he kept asking me what was the point when i made some useless move =p) and i answered, ' cos i wanna eat ur piece'
and my dad answered,' that's the only reason?' and i answered, 'yeah,kinda..=p'
2)u need to think more than that-think why ur opponent moved it there.. and think a few steps ahead why u wanna ur piece there.
he always said that i didnt think enough before deciding the best move.hmm...i get confused when i think too much! =p oh myyy.. i shoulddd think deeper...heeellllp!
3)u should develop all ur strong pieces first, before u decide to sacrifice them when u wanna eat ur opponent's piece.
i was like...'owh.. i never really thought bout that..waaaa... i think all i thought of was only to eat my opponent =p' oh myyy..
4)whenever possible, move ur pieces to the centre.not at the side or backward.
so i kinda learned that, even if u wanna safe ur piece from being eaten, move forward.. avoid going backward =p useful tip!
5)ur king can move everywhere... =p
haha..this is bcos he kept 'check-ing' me.. and i had to bring my king all over the world to safe him =p but eventhough king has only limited steps he can make, never underestimate its uses =p and i said' my king is too fat, he has to exercise..so i have to bring him jogging all over the chess board =p haha..

so, when i reflect all those things he said, u can kinda use those things in real life..?no? in certain situations la... =p and after playing chess, believe it or not, i started to feel fever-ish =p my brain is pampered too much!!i only used it to think a bit oso, become very tired already =p lol!
