| WIN or LOSE it's THE SCHOOL WE CHOOSE |
I did not plan on watching the game yesterday. I had my advertising class set at 130-430 and the game was scheduled 3pm. So i was really stuck in class. Or so i thought. Our teacher Ms. Diyco suddenly decided to give us a free cut. She even gave us a homework intructing us to watch the game and take note of the ads placed there. so wtf. I wish she had given this to us earlier so i could've lined up at the blue eagle gym last sunday to secure upper a tickets. but nooooo. now i desperately wanted to watch the game but i was ticketless. but i was still excited. I managed to convince helen to go to araneta to scavenge for even gen ad tickets. But when we got there plastered on the screen were only sold out tickets. so much for being hopeful. We sat there outside Gloria Maris hoping they would sell new tickets. We saw koonce and rica willing to buy from scalpers just to watch the game. We even considered looking for scalpers seeing that there was no chance of getting new tickets. Then a familiar face came out of the gate.. Kwey! We asked her if she was able to buy tickets and she said she had two extra gen ad tickets! huwaaat! sabi pa nya meron kami 2 extra tickets pero gen ad lang. Gen ad lang?! who cares! so nilabas ko na yung wallet ko to buy the tickets but intstead they gave it to us for free. yey. We were jumping like crazy. We thought it was divine intervention. God sending us free tickets in the form of kwey haha. We managed to find a good seat at the bleachers. We were so ready to cheer for ateneo!
The game was really something. you can really feel the stadium vibrate with the drums and the cheers. even if the audience was dominated by ust people the ateneans' voices rose above them. I really thought, hoped and prayed that we were going to win. The first 2 quarters showed good signs of victory. But somewhere at the end we started to falter. Sayang talaga sobra kaming nalungkot. My hands were tightly clasped together praying that god would grant us that divine intervention once more. but sadly no. we lost by two points. Akala ko naman dahil last year na namin sa Ateneo pagbibigyan na kami. Akala ko makakaranas na ko ng bonfire for the first time. So sad. ang dami pa namang mga sanga galing sa bagyo. akala ko talaga eto na.
We went home and the weather seemed to sympathize with us. It was raining buckets. I still had an aegis meeting so i had to go back to school but looked more like swam back to school because i was wet all over. my umbrella was like flimsy paper against the rain.
Congratulations to UST! But i still love Ateneo! always Ateneo! humanda kayo next year! yahoo ONE BIG FIGHT! |
