haha yes! i m finally blogging to memo OUR memorable day!
22/1/2009!
another day that i am going to rmb apart from 14/4/2005 =]

it has realli been a long long journey.
from the thought of maybe not playing for ntu basketball..
to finally joining..
till sguni which we brush past the champs n settled w a runners up..
till considering to take up e capt post..
to taking it up..
started trainings with the attendance of less than 10..
with players starting to increase with trainings..
to intensive trainings of thrice a wk, twice a day..
to fighting hard together..
to bonding together..
till today!
as an individual,
as a player,
as a team,
i tink i realli grew and learnt a lot!
realli..=D

in the process of all these..
there were things that i had to give up..
and the same goes for each and every1 of US (the team!)
n we finally reached the final destination - the finals!
i had always wanted to achieve something with this team!
this special team =D
clearing round 1 to get into semis was our 1st common goal.
getting the zheng men was our 2nd.
getting into finals was our 3rd.
n being the Champions was the unsaid one!
we all knew that regardless of the outcome..we r already THE CHAMPION in each another's heart! <3
we had came this far tgt =D
the bond tt we share ain't something tt is easily replaced =P

n here came finals!
we fought our hearts out!
with all 17players on court at any time!
we cheered each another on!
we fought tough n hard!
we never lost our focus!
cz we all know this..
lets end this beautiful season with a perfect note of achieving the title =D

n we did it!!!!
realli v proud of this special team!
the cheering that lasted thru' out the whole game!

there were many memorable championship..
sec4's nationals: we knew that we must and have to get it n we got it! i still love ahs b'gals 05!
j2: the thought of ending it in a nice note!
BUT..

Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause Im dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, Ill be holding you tight
And theres nowhere in the world Id rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me

Wonder if you ever see me and i
Wonder if you know Im there (am I there, am i? )
If you looked in my eyes would you see whats inside
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close but so far
All I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day (wait for the day)
To take the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do

Ill be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, Ill be holding you tight
And theres nowhere in the world Id rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and mehaha n there's a 2nd part..do go check tt song out =P
