Studying with the fencing team today.
After dinner, one of the guys studying with us told the story of the first time he came for training with NUS fencing.
You see, he was one of Singapore's top fencers and was in the national team, but no one in NUS knew at the time. (The only one who did pretend not to...)
So for the fun of it, he played along and acted like he knew nothing about fencing.
We were cracking up laughing at how one of our seniors was really giving him a hard time, making him do painful exercises in order to train his basics.
She jokingly said, that compared to his sister who was also in fencing, that he should just give up.
He sucked it up and went through the drills. She put him up to fence with one of the senior girls, not even a junior.
So he acted blur until he absolutely could not take it, then counter-attacked in style.
After the match the girls were shocked and asked him if he really had no experience before.
"How come you know how to do stuff I don't know how to do?"
The only other person who knew who he was said, "he has talent."
