loving tug-of-war

i love tug-0f-war.
the team spirit involves, the 8 persons in line and all the shouting and puffing and gritting teeth actions that come with it. i love everything about this! and of course, losing your voice at the end of the tug is no exception as well. and when you win...ok or your team wins, the experience is sweeter. however, the best part is during the tug itself. the anticipation, the excitement, the exhilaration, the anxiety...oh you just name it.

whether you win or lose is not important...as long as you enjoy the experience and show your determination during the process. winner and loser...there will definitely be. i am not just saying this because my girl and boy teams managed to get into the final...because it is exactly how i feel. oh, we have lost before but it did not deter us from trying again the next year. and the co-operation shown by all the team members really makes me proud. they were so united yesterday that their actions and shoutings were syncronised. how cool is that? and to think that they were almost giving up in the first round. all their faces were red and they had been at the fight for almost one minute. gosh...in the end, it was their perseverence that won the day. i could have given everyone a hug but that would have created a bit controversies i am sure.

looking forward to this saturday. it is going to be a tough fight i am sure but we are definitely not giving up. and those boys were saying, 'better do it properly or miss L is going to kill us.' well, it is nice to know i have some influence. haha...until then, it will be less talking these 2 days because i have lost my voice to all the shoutings yesterday. but it was worth it.
