i had my first ever basketball training yesterday, or maybe it's just called a tryout. well anyway, i was rather excited, maybe a little too nervous too. i couldn't dribble with 2 balls, one on each hand. it was a great challenge for me. but i was rather happy when i had a chance to play against the year 2s and 3s. i was really happy, and i showed it, that i scored the only 2points for my first team. coach than seperated us into 2 groups. group 1 is obviously the group with players of better skills, and group 2 is the one with, well, not so good players. daniel and i fell into group 2. we have probably one last chance to perform on Friday. i'm not too sure whether there'll be anymore trainings besides the next one. i just hope that i can get my dream come true, to play competitive basketball that is.
disappointed. disheartened. when can i start to play in an official team. to score points that are recorded. to grab critical rebounds for a fighting team. to block game winning shots from an opposing team. nobody who has played ball with me, besides Mr Michael (Director of SHL), has any hopes in me to get into a basketball team. they will simply give comments which would hurt me indirectly. i won't get my confidence level low. i cannot afford to let these people continue to look down on me. i want to make a name for myself. despite failures and critisism, i will try my best and prove all who look down on me wrong.
i have failed too many times in too many things in life. i cannot afford to fail anymore.
