| After all we've done, it comes down to this? |

I have a lot of things to say today.
Chronological order luh uh.
At the start of the match, I was damn angry with Coach cause he asked me to sit out. Sit out for this match? The match that would determine everything? He wanted me to just stand there, watch, and be able to do nothing?
Then, I started looking at things from a different point of view.
I started noticing how our team plays. And damn it, we play great. And I'm not saying this just because it's the right thing to do now. It's true.
Every single one of you played awesome today.
Especially Pat Wong, we could all see the determination and everything you put into the game. Every single ball you took was awesome, be it receiving, spiking or service; Esther, cause we saw you going all the way to take the balls, front and back.
Chleo, I don't know if you're always this exhausted playing all the matches, cause this is the first time I'm having a good look. You play damn fantastic. Blocking, spiking, receiving all the balls at the same time.
And also, Zebrina. When I saw you taking all the balls, I figured, Coach did the right thing putting you in. All my fustration and anger became excitement and anxiety when I saw everybody playing such a good game.
It really is totally different seeing things from outside. Then I realised, we outside weren't doing nothing. We were cheering, putting in everything for the team playing inside.
And we lost the position in Top 4 by just 3 points.
But, we've come this far. We fought hard and with our all against XMS.
The way we all cried today, I don't know what to say. The future of SJCVB is uncertain too.
But we all did our best.
I thank Neh,
for coming to comfort me without me having to say anything. Sorry for dirtying your pinafore with all the tears and other stuff:/
Funny how the first hug we have after so long is like that.
And Jess,
for all your words of advice and consolation. So difficult to have to go through everything without a non-volleyballer's opinion and listening ear.
