Celebrating 30yrs of life: Hockey

It been a long while since I haven't post my signature Theme post "30yrs of life". 

There is 3 things in my life of Hobbies (with burning passion) that will forever have a place in my heart; Guitar, Basketball and...Hockey. 

Found this yesterday in my very old folder...now who wldn't want to be in a newpaper. But despite the glamour of being in a newspaper (btw that's me in the newspaper), in this particular newspaper our college team lost to ITB by 1-0. But I will always love Hockey...

I'm not part of the national team, was only there to learn but eventually I practice with them for 3 yrs and mostly with the veteran. I was at first very intimidated, but one of the veteran player (was also my senior in college) told me just come and play, no need to practice! I was very skeptical. But eventually I realize it made my game better. Because being with the veterans it made me have to prove to them that I could play their standard of game, I work hard for it! even during practice and game play I made sure I gave more than 100% But the best part was I felt like we were all one big family and they never look down on new players...they constantly gave me advice and tips and I really listen to them. No matter how hard we train the fun was always there especially with the young "skim" players.

I would like to thank them for having me, even though I was just a "hockey drifter" (Not part of the team, just come to train and play!) they let me stay on for 3yrs and taught me the value of hard work. 

Oh if you wonder why only 3yrs, well...I was exhausted! and needed a break from hockey, but eventually found my soul-mate so didn't play ever since. And I lay my hockey stick down in my room... hoping for a return!
