love and basketball Just went grocery shopping with my sister and mom..My thighs and back feels stiff from badminton and comparing it with what we did in the try-outs, badminton was far more exhausting..I was quite disappointed with the try-outs, I thought there would some gruelling drills that I see in the movies but there were only short (5-8 mins) of scrimmages..There were about 50 applicants grouped into 8 or 9 teams..Jelo, Joel and Sar were on the same team while I was grouped into another team..Our group was quite strong, I was lucky to have 3 high school varsity players as my teammates but the downside was that I was the only one who plays the guard position (they all play forward), but I though this is what it’s all about..overcoming challenges..I was quite disappointed with my performance, I feel that if given more time I could still show some stuff..But I guess they are not interested with these skinny and short guy with almost afro hair..hehe.. There would still be some “screenings” and I’m still thinking if I should continue this thing even if in the end I know that I won’t be included in the team..I don’t know if I should still try-out (I think I have 20% chance) or should I join other orgs, like psy soc..what do you think?? I know if I would try-out with the psy soc I won’t make coz there’s bad blood between the captain ball and 3C (we beat them on the psych 3on3 plus there are other reasons that I won’t elaborate anymore)..My desperate move might be joining scarlet or comm-ach..I’m not that “enthusiastic” regarding my studies, I can’t sing and dance, I don’t play any instrument and the only thing I’m good at is sports..and the way I see it, I’m not that good..I wasn’t given a wide frame and I’m not that tall, which would really be plus points in basketball..I think the first priority of the science team would be height then body..can’t blame them coz if you would see the team of educ. or commerce we look like high school kids..
Enough for that..I had a chat with my friend “J” (through text) and he’s having problems with “love”..just want to know your thoughts..He (my friend) has a female friend..After sometime, they became good friends..and my friend started to fall for this girl..and they had this mutual thing going around them, well that was what he thought..coz lately the girl started to be cold and seems to distance herself from my friend..and this the time that his close friend “T” (male) enters the picture..”J” notice that “T” is starting to get close to his friend..and J would always see them together talking and having so much fun..and he realizes that this m.u. thing that he thought was going on was just his imagination..Now he asks me what he should do..My thoughts about this?? now that he's falling for the girl.. I guess if I was “J” I would be happy (just a little) that the girl that he loves would end up with a person that I could trust but deep inside of course I would still be hurting..I really pity my friend..I don’t really know what would I do if I was in his position..but just maybe if you really love the girl you should let her be happy even if it means keeping your feelings to yourself..
If it’s not too much to ask I would like to have your opinions about the basketball thing and what advice should I give my friend..i’m not really good with advice..i’m more of a listener..
