Banana The Minions The Champion!

BA BA BA BABANANA

BA BA BA BABANANA BANANA NA AHH

POTATO NA AH AH BANANA AH AH

Okay cut it off people; I know you're humming to it now. I'm a potato and I like banana a lot, but that doesn't make a minion though. What makes me become one is because of this fruity match and we ended it in minion-esque way, pretty much I guess. Okay I'm one of the all yellow and average size Banana-cum-Minion people, cheering with "Nana" annoying sounds all the way long, like literally yeah. But who cares, we won the game after all!

We had an utter blast you know, from badminton to table tennis (why should people play tennis on a table though), to this grand finale of so-called TEM family day. All those frolic games from kaki galah to kembar siam to hit-and-run cans whatnots; man I almost lost my voice for cheering non-stop haha!

It happened just in time when I was about to lose my spirit because of incessant mental and emotional turmoils, Allah brought in this diversion to me. No I am not talking about straining my vocal chords for the cheers, but it's for the underlying messages that I could perceive from every situation this time around.

"Believe in yourself, and give your best shot in everything you do."

I certainly gave my best shot for it, as in to avoid them selecting me for the sports instead haha! But apparently the plead did not work out. They still made me play badminton for two rounds and gasp for air and end it with hospital for emergency lung injury and...okay, just kidding, that is too much for an exaggerated lie. Nothing bad happened except for the part that I felt quite embarrassed for losing the game in the final female solo match.

The feeling then got all mixed up, like when you are forced to do something that you are not confident in doing from the beginning, yet people are trying hard to change your mindset and you keep yourself positive by their words. But even when you give your all to win the game, you still lose it in the end and embarrass yourself for showing flaws to the others.

Boom!

Yeah i don't know how to describe it properly but that's about me. I could hardly accept defeat and failure in this life, so when it happens it makes me feel extremely bad about it. Negative turns positive; well that is life. We can't always get what we want in this life, even when we give our best shots for it. Because you know why? Man proposes and God disposes. Things could backfire, but the moment when it does, we should always find the positive in it. It's the effort that counts after all.

"Don't worry, we are here for you."

Final day; and I played three games which gave me muscle cramps for three nights straight! *rolls eyes* It felt way better to play as a team rather than going solo, you know. We rise together as a team, and we fall together as a team. Oh, that explains our t-shirts tagline then!

TOGETHER BETTER STRONGER.

Isn't that just perfectly said people? We get better when we work together, because we have those supports to make us stronger from time to time.It's okay to fall, as long as we get back up and continue the journey with the rest of the supporters. Of all those Durian-vs-Papaya-vs-Rambutan-vs-Banana pursuits that we had so far, I reckon what values most to everyone is not the final victory, but it's the utmost teamwork - not only for each team but together as TEMmites as a whole.

Cheers!

p.s. Kept this drafted for one year plus oh well, nasib baik tak jadi ikan pekasam haha!
