Watched Game 1 last saturday. It was so intense and thrilling. Even though we only got gen ad tickets, I still enjoyed it so much.
There are a bunch of problems before watching this game...At first, me and my friend do not know how are we supposed to go to MoA Arena. But luckily we found our way there. The next one is we do not know where to eat and it's kinda late so we're running out of time. But we found our way to a japanese restaurant, ate there with still enough time to buy milk tea(hehe ✌) And of couuurse, we bought some milk teaaaaaa. Then went straight to arena.
Going there, we we're so scared that we'll not see anything from gen ad's post but we can still see them!!! like really! Everyone is so hyped even before the game started. Then eventuallyyyy, the game started. UP got the first which made the UP crowd cheeeer.
Much later in the game, and it's just getting more and more intense. Eventually it was half time. Ateneo is up by 2 points I think(pls just watch it on youtube. there is a video of the full game!) Then UP pep squad performed aaaaa. It's so beautiful 😭
Just look at them 😭😭😭
after that, on the the third quarter, Bright was injured!!! so heartbreaking moment but later, he came baaaack aaaa. The game is almost at its end, and Ateneo is up by the 10 points. 1minute and I still have a lot of hope, and eventually the end came. UP lost by 9points 79-88. Yes, we lost in this game but in all of the UP Community, the UPmbt already won.
also, game 2 and game 3 right? hehe (credits to the owner of the photo, Kath Zamora.)
Noong bata ako,
Takot ako sa dilim.
Pero... gusto ko ang gabi
Gusto kong tinitingnan ang langit
At gusto kong kausapin ang buwan at mga tala
Gabi-gabi ay humihiling ako sa langit
Nangungusap sa buwan
Humihingi sa mga tala
Na sana ay matupad
Ang mga pangarap kong ito
Hindi ko nababanggit kaninoman
Ang mga mumunting kong kahilingan
Ang buwan at mga tala lamang ang saksi sa mura ko pang isip
Na nangangarap
At naniniwalang matutupad ito
Ngunit kay tagal na
Ilang gabi na rin ang inilagi ko sa balkonahe ng aking silid
Ilang tala na ang nakita kong nawala
Ilang beses nang nagpalit ng anyo ang buwan
Ngunit umaasa pa rin ako.
“Ayoko na.”
Ang sabi ko sa sarili ko
Sa oras ding yaon,
Itinigil ko ang mangarap
Ngunit hindi mo ito hinayaan
Ang sabi mo sa akin,
“Ang pinakamahirap na tao ay yung mga taong walang pangarap”
Napaisip naman ako at napatanong ng “Bakit?”
“Sa dinami-dami ng bagay sa mundo, ang mangarap na lang ang isa sa mga bagay na libre pang gawin”
Kaya ikaw
Na nakikinig sa mumunti kong tula
Mangarap ka.
Darating ang panahon,
Ikaw na ang pinakamasayang tao sa mundo.
