少年 - Part I

Finally caught 'That Girl in a Pinafore' yesterday.

It made me rewind my life back to more than a decade ago... 
Even though I was not born during the 新谣 period, the show brought back many, many fond memories of my own childhood years.
I still cannot believe that I am saying this; I am already (only) 20 years old?!



The growing up years of my life has been splendid!


I shall narrate one small part of my growing up years. It is an essential part of my life that I
couldn't have lived without.

Basketball

How I first got in touch with Basketball, this wonderful sport that made me gain a truckload of bosom friends, was actually introduced to me by my 14 years (and counting) buddy, Joshua.

Joshua first joined the sport as part of the school co-curriculum activity (CCA) back in GongShang Primary School in Primary 1.  He was enjoying the sport so much and pulled me along to join him when we were in Primary 2. Until today, I still remember him asking me to join Basketball, when we were both under the morning sun, 2 innocent boys standing beside the basketball court. Of course, I agreed to his request immediately. When we were young, everything also must do together right! Haha!

Anyway, it was a decision where i continued playing competitively for the next 10 years...

This was taken like when we were Primary 4/5? Can you spot me!! I am number 12!! ROFL!!! 

OMG. Cannot believe the change I had after 10 years. HAHAHA. 

After that, I continued playing in secondary school, Anglican High!

This was taken when I was in Sec 2! East Zone Champions!

When we were in Secondary 3!

When we were Double Champs in Secondary 4!  2009.

This was also the last year where I played competitive Basketball.

It was not an easy decision, to stop playing a Sport that has been close to my heart for so many years. Most of the things that happened in my life also revolves around Basketball. 

In fact, I cannot think of what I will be today if not for Basketball. It really is what made me who I am. 

Yes, Basketball definitely took up a large portion of my life. But it was the friends that made all the wonderful memories. 

Both pictures look "similar" right! 

Okay lah, not really... It's the closest i could find!

To be continued.
