Going to Vietnam

Hello,

I'm going to Vietnam on Saturday (June 6) and coming back on June 16. The purpose of my visit is to play chess in the 10th ASEAN+ AGE-GROUP CHESS CHAMPIONSHIPS where I will be representing Malaysia in the Under-20 age group. First time I have ever played chess in a competition outside of Malaysia, so this will be a nice experience for me.

The winner will be given the FIDE Master title, other than the glory and bragging rights that come with winning :D. I do not expect to win at all though, but maybe... i have a one in a million chance to win ;). I am seeded 16 that means theoritically I am weaker than the 15 players ahead of me so logically my chances to win are slim. Nevertheless, my aim is do better than my seeding which is in itself not easy to do.

One problem I am facing is that i have to finish my additional mathematics project in one day (Today!). Don't think I'm gonna finish, just hope teacher will spare me and not minus marks or something. Well, I gotta start packing and try to finish my project... bye
