start of volleyball competition!
today was... i dont really know how to describe but it certainly made our team closer. well we lost to dunman . it was very unexpected. all of us were disappointed with ourselves. the moment we went out of the hall to have a group talk, coach didnt scold us because he knows we were already disappointed with what we did today(i think he thinks that way). teacher talked to us but to me i feel it didnt has much effect on us because the greatest advice will always come from our own team members.everyone off form today , that wasnt us at all . we are much better than that . this game was crucial to us . we had to win this game, but i guess it was our first game so everyone were scared and stressed .

when teacher went off after our request , tiffany told us to sit closer and she said something that
really soften my heart, i think its not only mine but everyone's heart. (im going to shorten what was said) she said:"i asked god why this happened to us today, and i can hear him saying when we are playing in the game, we musnt keep thinking about winning , we have to think about something different from that and that will be FRIENDSHIP" after she said that tears flow out of her eyes again. not only did she cried, everyone did including me . its like she is so right, its not all about winning it is about keeping that friendship , have fun and play as a TEAM. After this , alot of people apologize for the mistakes they did . we stay there for 1 hour i think, our area were very silent. everyone just kept quiet . well as a reserve , i started saying what i feel. i told them they gave up very easily . the moment they miss their spike , i can see they have lost their confidence. i dont know why today we were like this . when the captain cheered, the others responded softly. those not in the game cheered loudly but i think they didnt hear those cheers. i told them " as what coach said the ball is dead and we are the one controlling how the ball will go not the other way round. we can do it . i mean some people even felt scared and gave up even before the game started. nobody is a burden to the team. if someone is trying very hard , we should pick up the courage to do our best too." alot of stuff were said by other people too. its like a confession session. and through this session , we finally know what are the true thoughts and feelings that were kept away from the team for a very long time . the group talk ended with a pray and a team cheer. when everyone felt much better some of us went to the food court to eat.

we should just forget our mistakes because its not a individual thing. volleyball is a team game. A TEAM means only with the involvement of EVERYONE , we can do well. if we keep on keeping the guilt in us , we will never perform our best. now the only thing i will do is pray that God... please help everyone , give them the courage and confidence to do well.We hope that the misunderstandings between the teammates will be cleared . yes,the next match will be tough but i pray that we will put in all our effort and win that school! even if we lose, we must lose with statisfaction that i have perform my best and show the other team that we didnt give up. and God.. please help every single person on the team , bless them and guide them to a path that will make them feel less stressed up .

JIA YOU VOLLAYBALLERS! we can do it! do our best! stop thinking negatively! and show them our true teamwork and skills! :D
