You don't have to be good at it, right?

My eyes were opened while talking to Liaowei a few days ago.


I realised since last year that basketball is really a sport that I love to do.
So much that I sometimes neglected my homework for the sake of 2 hours session of adrenaline.

Reasons why I really enjoy playing basketball:
1). Temporary but significant relief of my mental and emotional problems.
2). It excites me, gives me pleasure, and makes my day.
3). Good session for me and my bros to get along better and better too. Maybe this is why I always play basketball if one of them play too ==


And then I was into the school team this year, in my last year of secondary.
Though during that period of competition [early of this year] I was still quite lacking in skills,
I can see that my abilities really improve afterwards.

That effectively boosts my confidence in trying to get into the school team in JC next year.

However,

Me: I'll try get into a school basketball team in JC. You surely wanna try oso right?
Liaowei[Lw]: Yeah lah. But you see, Hwa Chong the basketball so pro. If I cannot maybe I wanna try tennis. Haha.
Me: Oh.. If I can't go in basketball I dont know which should I take already. Maybe don't take CCA.
Lw: For what? We can still play basketball outside. We're not destined to be playing in NBA. Our life is better in academic than basketball. Why sacrifice so much?
Me: *wondering in silence agreement*


OMG. What he said was like completely TRUE
I've been blinded by the thing I love so much that I fail to see the importance of other things in my life.

Family;
Brothers;
Studies;
My childhood-till-now dream - Doctor;
Love [maybe?];


There should be more, I suppose.


Anyway, basketball will continue to be a part of my life.
I'll keep playing,
It'll continue to be my favourite pastime,
I'll continue respecting the "king of basketball", Michael Jordan aka Air Jordan 23,
And I'll continue respecting my role-model, Steve Nash, with his number 13.



Though I'll never be good at it.




Still, that's not gonna stop me from going through a self-made hardcore training programme to prepare myself for JC next year xD
