basketball

Hey!!!esterday was the tenth of February 2009. It was one of my memorial day that I will never forget. Our basketball team, the unicorn’s season had ended. Now I'm writing this blog that we lost and our seasons over but I can't really believe that our season had ended. I first started playing basketball was when I was in sixth grade and I kept on playing until yesterday. My basketball life was for six years which means a lot to me and learned a lot from this sport. Friendship, communication, and courtesy. It was last year when we went to the County Center during the finals of section 1 class C game in Purchase and the lost against Tuckahoe. From the day we lost on that day, our new team’s season had started for us. From two weeks later from the lost our new team had started our pre-season which is getting ready for the next season doing basic stuff. We ran as fast as fast as we could and lifted weights training and of course played ball. It feels like the lost of the finals is like yesterday and now our 2008-2009 seasons had ended. Our record was 7-13 which is not a good record. Our team could done a lot much better but, nothing will change even if I say anything. All the time when we lose we say the referee wasn't good but that is how it goes and a lost is a lost, we have to deal with it. It means that we didn't play our best against the opponent. A lot of supporters were around me friends and even my family worried about my season and they hoped that our team will win. Almost every away game other sport clubs got on the sidewalks and said good luck to us and cheered. Home games, a lot of my friends and my friends in freshmen, sophomore, and juniors and seniors came to cheer us up which was a big thing that helped me get into the game and got our motivations up. When we lost the game yesterday I didn't have any tears coming out maybe because I didn't have regret. Even though it wasn't a good record for me, I was proud of the team and feel really proud of playing for the Keio Unicorns. From now on, I will play basketball as a hobby and this year’s season I will never forget and will be a memory that will go away.

From today I have nothing to do but, still think that I still have season and have practice and think that I still have many games to go. I am neet!!!
or the juniors basketball teammates it is their team from today and I hope that their new team will go to the sectionals and win the sectionals and I really believe it. I don't have a real goal for now because my goal for this year was to win the sectionals. I will study from today Mr.Kringle and get a better grade in other subjects!! My goal will be graduating from today!! I have many things to do such as getting ready for the fied day and cultural festival and cheering for other sports!! I got lots of emails from older graduates saying that I played well for four years and should be proud of my self!! They said when I graduate lets get everyone together on the team and go for a dinner some time!! Our basketball team bond is a really big bond!! Now I'm happy but I feel emotional on the other hand!!!!!
