no idea what went wrong again. everything was so perfect yesterday and so happy. and maybe it's the moody weather, the lack of awesome laughter-prone activities and the thought of letting some people down.
no it's not the qualifying game we lost today, but something tells me i, or rather we, lost in our own game. im not being harsh on the team, i felt we did our best, but seems still not enough to meet their expectations.. although they keep emphasizing that we have potential, we've done well so far, etc. yeah, we did learn quite some stuff, like teamwork not just in the pool but also in terms of physical effort, new strategies, increased tolerance to unfair ref calls, more ingrained courtrules...and that winning is not everything. indeed. i just silently tell myself, we'll shine better during nationals. YEAH BABY.
in the meantime, we need to even more learn to tolerate each other's misgivings. politely send out reminders. uphold duties beyond our positions and bear in mind to think many instead of one. *nods vigorously
RAWR. so it's back to mugging for me while the other teams sent in continue to fight for top placings(all the best to them).
*shrugs.
All the sleepless nights;
and the tears you cry
