".... what it means to be part of a team. there are lots more to being part of the team than merely being the regular 9 that begins the game." this was what miss ong wrote to me in an email and i think it might be useful showing us all.
there's more to being part of a team then just making it to the school team.
im not fit to stnad here and preach about how to make a team work out, how to push a team etc. i mean playing in a team sport is actually a relatively new experience to me considering i have been an indiv. sport person(like swimming/triathlon). i would like to try and BE part of the team, our team, NYSB. and i hope we'd let me be.
no matter what mishaps that occurred this year/last year i guess we still have to stick with each other for this one last season. so why not make it a good one?we dont have to go out everyday/do everything together. what matters is whether we are willing to overlook our differences ( im sure we can have loads of differences, after spending almost 3 yrs with u all) and strive towards the ultimate goal.
i guess even if we do not play the positions we don't really enjoy, its probably for the better good of the team. u noe, frankly i didnt use to think like that like in sec 2-3, i always thought i must fight fight fight for my position( which is wat i have been trained to do since pr sch) but now, i guess any position suits me as long as we can win.
have fun at end of year's prog!i look forward to the best season next year. a season where true friendship and bonds are forged.
(: goodbye!

Hey guys,
exams are here! the horror. haha, just had add math. and social studies.keep a relaxed mind!
felt obliged to type this down-in case i forget. i was thinking about softball and all( i know im not supposed to) then i realised something ive never realised before, and it struck me, hard.
it just occured to me that softball is so beautiful. i mean, its not just about the best throw, the best swinging technique,the farthest pitch. Its about facing adversity and taking it in your stride. This may sound corny but yeah.
Take, for example, its your turn up to bat. you fret, you fear, but thats not going to help, isit? full count, 2 onyou. what can you do but face it? you either triumph or fail. A grounder, might seem so terrifying, but i geuss if you dont dop anything about it and let it pass you JUST LIKE THAT, will then the game might be lost. The grounder here, then, would be " the adversity " we have to overcome.
See? the whole game, with all its elements are so-perfect.Softball has really taught me principles that i can apply to my life. I hope it has given you guys the same amount of inspiration that it had on me.
well........ next year is our l;ast season! (well mine at least) and i hope we can make it a good one. (:
study hard! (refering to myself! haha) cya guys. i cannot wait for trng to begin!
