I Love This Game....... My Basketball Life


My Basketball Life…


To become a professional basketball player is really what I want to be. On my part I know that it’s a very tough dreams but that’s what I really want. This goal was set when I was just a young boy about 15 years old. Before, basketball like an addiction for me, I never let the day pass without playing basketball. I wake up everyday 6 in the morning to practice and play basketball. I do this routine for the reason that I don’t want to be fool by the others when it comes to it. I Practice like a hell to surpass all the people who look down on me. As time goes by, I realize that basketball is not all about defeating others to prove that you’re much better than the others, it’s about how you play the game no matter what win or lose. At first, my objective was to overpower and be top of others but I get it wrong, basketball is about how the team not by me or yourself defeat others. The team is not just compose by me, I’m a part of a team. When the time my view point of playing basketball was change, I play much better than before. I compete so numerous street leagues and barangay tournament before. I have a total of “5 Mythical Five” and 3 M.V.P (Most Valuable Player) awards on street or amateur league. It doesn’t change and turn me into something arrogant guy, I keep the way like I before.

When I just about to graduate in high school, I plan to put my name down in university where I can carry on my reverie. I was frustrated when I heard the news that the try out for a basketball team was just a formality, they already have a line up who’s qualified to join the team. The preferred players are really tall and my height is not like them. So I determined to focus on my study. All through college years, I rarely play basketball and that’s the reason I’m beginning to gain weight. The routine that I used to be was gone. But I accept the reality that it’s not meant for me, I know that there is something for me all I have to do is wait and do what I have to do. Of course I can play basketball when I have a time but now it’s not my goal in life.

Now that I’m working here at Total Information Management (T.I.M), it’s almost a year that I don’t play basketball. But I’m thankful that we have a schedule for playing basketball this time. Last November 21, 2007, we play basketball at Palanan basketball court here in Makati. We all play well and the game was so great. But I really losing my breath that time, I can’t even dash like before and my weight is giving me a hard time. After a week ago November 28, 2007, the game was on again. Like before we all play so well and the only difference is I’m not out of breathing.
