SNNB'12.
To my dearest netballers:
Thank you.
Thank you for making me look forward to coming for training. Thank you for being such fun people to be with. Thank you for giving me such a wonderful season to remember. And thank you for being one of the best teams I will, and probably ever will, work with.
It's sad, right? To see something so amazing come to an end. We've gone through so much together as a team. We managed to complete 10 burpees, then 20 burpees, then 5 min burpees, and finally the most dreaded 10 min burpees. We never thought we will ever pull through, but we did, didn't we? Just like how we've managed to surpass all odds, and make it to top 4.
It's amazing how time flies, how just two months ago, on 27th Jan, we played our first match. And I guess it's sad too. That this journey of finding faith, of building friendships, of being a team, has ended. This bittersweet journey has taught me so much it's impossible to describe. Some things in life just aren't meant to be understood, some feelings not meant to be comprehended. But I love you guys so so much and I just find it so hard to come to terms that this season is, or already has ended. This feeling of nostalgia, with a tinge of sadness, yet sour with happiness has eclipsed my heart totally. The saddest thing is watching this stellar adventure turn into nothing but mere memories. It hurts, too, to know that the only thing you can do to relive those moments, is to fall back onto these memories. It's just not "real" anymore, yes?
Sure, it hasn't been all fine and dandy, nothing is ever flawless. Some days we just have no mood to train, some days we feel like we haven't played our best, some days just don't go right. But it is through all these not so perfect moments, where we learn to appreciate the more fine days, it is all these flaws that make this season so unforgettable.
I will never forget such a magical journey with you babes, ever. You guys will, and forever will be infinite in my heart.
