MDE Games.

we had our annual games held earlier at the sports complex in school. different sports were played - basketball, soccer, captain ball, table tennis and badminton. our class got pretty involved in this games as sijie made sure that every single student participated in today's event.

as usual, i played basketball with andy, sebastian and sijie. we played our one and only match and lost~ lolx=) wasn't a good game as our opponents had their elbows and legs flying, but no foul called. so, that really drained off our morale and i wasn't really keen on playing, but was becoming a little aggresive.

but, we didn't fight lah. they really deserved my elbows=)

after our match, we went to the socer field and watched hamzah and his team play. we were cheering them on and whenever a good shot or save was made, we would cheer~ howie almost scored a great header but the keeper managed to tip it off in time. if howie scored that goal, the match would have ended differently.

i got sub into the match in the second half and i wasn't quite on form. its been eons still i last played soccer and i was pretty lost. the match ended 2-0, to our lost.

after the match, our class and 02 stayed back and played soccer among ourselves. that was the match soccer match i ever played. no compeition, just pure fun and fooling around. one of the weirdest happenings happened. with three persons infront of goal and just only the keeper to beat, we didn't score!! >.<

loLz=) but, the match ended 5-4. even though my team lost, we had fun and i believe thats the entire point of this MDE games.

we achieved something that other teams didn't really achieve - fun and bonding.

winning the competition is secondary, but the primary focus is to create bonding between students and lecturers, to have fun before the exams and to play. our class may have lost in all their games, but we are still winners because we played to enjoy ourselves=D

i think that's really important in an event like this, else it would cause frictions among classmates and make things worst.

seeing the bonding among the male students in my class, i feel extremely blessed to be in this class. there ain't backstabbing between any students and we would often help each other with school work, encouraging and making sure that we would do fine in class.

a class like that in poly is really hard to find=)

thank God for my class!!!
