Basketball Competition! What a day it was.

My heart started racing..my knees got weaker and weaker...but somewhere within me told me that whatever happens ..it happens for a GOOD reason.
Thus, I prepared myself for the action!
Well, the day started really well...coool brezze on my apple-ish cheeks and Jason Mraz's songs in my heart.
Just after the Prefect and announced the usual Happy news and that is - Time for Dispersal..yeah..just like dispersal in Plants. Anyway, I took permission from Ma'am to go to my Sister's class Vc, I just wanted to give all my guides and my charts, as I was staying back for the Basketball Competition.
I went to her class, and Gosh, there class must be the most colorful one, and well, I told them to prey for me, for Aries house to win the match. And, most of them said they would and I knew that they would.
So, there I was with my two best Friends Andy and Isha, from the same class and the same House (Aries), we looked at every other members from the different houses...shuddering a bit coz they were as tall as Amazon, and we? Well...we were like neutral.
We saw each house members, well most of the house, ok only one house members discussing about the game, and even we though to do the same and we did.

I stood on the field where after few seconds I would be huffing and puffing just to get the ball and to basket it.
I went for the Second half and let others go, as I wanted to see the other House members play, how they worked and played. I wanted to have a match with Leo House (Yellow) and we actually did got to play.
The first half which was for 5 minutes, our team weren't able to basket, but the other team did.
So it was my time to go, that was the second half. I did came to know what their ways were...and I was indeed nervous like a butterfly as she comes out from her cocoon . But, as I got the ball.....the ball....really made me more confident and a little less nervous which was good for us and well..not so good for the other team...hehehhe...
We played really played..and this time B-A-S-K-E-T......and there was a moment...we got to baskets and one of 'em was by yours truly, Me!!
***Prrrreeeep!!! went Betty ma'am 's whistle and the time was out but we had our smiles on, well there was a reason to have so. We had won the first match and now we had wait and watch the other team play and whomever wins would play with us for the 1ST and 2ND place.
We waited eagerly..like lionesses waiting eagerly for their prey to come by.
It was our time, we discussed every way and path to defend, attack and everything except of course Nothing!
As usual I went only during the second half, but one of our team mate needed a break and so I went as a substitute and played for sometime and BASKET!!!!!! we finally got our one basket against Tauraus....and ..Prrrrrrrrrrrreeep!!!
And the second half...I went more confident as I ever was. Now, we knew that can win with the best sportswomanship. And ...for sometime, it looked as if no one could basket...but then, we did it again....Hurarrarrahhh!!!
Time's up!
We won the game, that means we ARIES had come to 1st place. We played really well and all we looked was getting the game going smoothly and winning.
It had to be the best moment of our life, you would think! And, guess what! It was.
The only worst thing that happened was well...I kinda passed the ball to our teammate but not the hands rather on her face...it was an accident..the ball came to my hand and all I could see were clouds of green and red, and I just pushed the ball to whoever close I was. I apologized to her A.S.A.P
But, the best part has to be, when she said this has happened before, that is she had been hurt many times when someone passed the ball. Now, I was sad for her coz I know how much it really hurts when the ball hist on your face and that too BASKETBALL.
Well, I was glad as well, as I wasn't the first person to passed the ball on the wrong turn and surely I wasn't going to be the last, I wish I was.
Well, we all had one wonderful day..yeah..with lotta sweat, huffing and puffing...
I came home..so eager to announce the result of our hardwork even though we hadn't practiced much, hadn't even touched the ball for ages...but guess life's full of surprises and so is our abilities. But, that devilish smile I had on me, to trick my brother in thinking that we had lost. And, I switched off my victorious smile and told him that we had unfortunately lost. But, my soul could no longer hold the victory yell so YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! I yelled out and well..he realized that we had won.
I did my victory dance and had my victory meal...French friess and saladddd.
Yumm...the meal and the sweet soul of victory...it's gooood!
