Carom Cafe

Today was another off day as usual, woke up in the morning, ate lunch, took an afternoon nap... and woke up to a call from my friend, Sky around 7.40pm. We went for dinner together at our usual haunt, and for the first time in Flushing, we decided to do something. Usually after a meal, we just went home but today is different. I suggested we go play pool and off we go looking for the place that I wanted to go for some time but never had the chance to.

We reached Carom Cafe around 9.05pm. I always pass by this place but never went in. As we check out the place, I think it's a pretty cool one. There are pool tables, ping pong tables, poker tables, and even a small game room. There are also several tables for what I call the 'Korean pool' because the tables are the same size with the pool tables except they have no holes. Until now, I can't understand the game as the players keep hitting the ball around. Looks boring to me anyway. After checking out the place, we got ourselves a table and off we start...

Sky's skill in pool is better than I thought. Or maybe I have lost my touch I don't know. Haven't played this game in a while but that's not a good excuse. Sky got a lead ahead of me by winning 4-2 games. Luckily for me, I managed to caught up back to 4-4 (8 games) but the time is up. Not wanting to waste more money for that extra time, we packed up and paid at the counter. It was a tie game today but it was fun. Not to mention the cute Korean girl in front of the counter. After that, we went home and after taking a shower, here I am writing this entry...Anyway, it's not a bad day after all~~
