very happy now..i represented my flight and scored 6 goals in street soccer at my squadron's annual sports meet!
we won the first match 3-1 and the second 7-1!
to think that at first i wasn't scheduled to go for this competition because of my shift..
then i had to get the flu on sunday..till today my nose is still dripping! =(
but i kinda heckcared everything else and put my best into it.

the atmostphere was electric..everytime i scored, my whole flight cheered..even those whom i have never seen before!
even my OC (officer in command) - whom i never had a very good impression of - high-fived me once when i scored!
even after the matches, all the congratulations came pouring in..even heard that the highest ranked guy - our CO (commanding officer) - asked about me!
-woah!-

everything is still so clear..all that "ooh"ing and "aah"ing and "YEAH!"
i'm only thankful i had the chance to soak in such an atmosphere..
the feeling that everyone is behind you and you are uniting the whole flight together..
for that i have to thank my colleague, chunchyi for pestering and pursuading me to go..
(hey! he even offered to sacrifice his place in the team just because i was doubtful that i'll get the chance to play!!)
and of course all 4 of my teammates who worked their soaks off as well for making this experience so unforgettable..
cheers to all!

very tired now..got a blister on my second toe..have a bruise on my knee..my throat is sore..my nose is still stuck...
but all worth it..
like my nuer said..dreams do come true..
even if it is as insignificant as a squadron street soccer competition..
