me,myself and i'm prisc: Bukan Team Basketball a.k.a BTB

BTB is my basketball team when I was in Labuan Matriculation College (LMC). I was in LMC after finished my secondary school and before I continue my degree in University Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). This team i mean BTB is the greatest team i ever had !! I mean it

.. We are more than a teammate because we take care of each other inside and outside the basketball court. We are like sisters. Owh before i forget, members of BTB are Priscilla (me), Ramona, Lina, Mariam, Didie, Comel (Emie), Dorothy Tan and Kathy.. Sakinah was actually in the team, but she was replaced by Didie because she get an offer from maktab perguruan. ^-^... Our coach was Mr. Anis (',') and Miss Farah as our manager and she was the person who is responsible to take care of us and find sponsor for our jersey, begs and shoes bag. Thanks alot also to LOFSA, our sponsor thanks a lot. I still use all of it and i really love them.

It was not as easy as ABC to be in this team. We have to show our best and our ability to perform our skills, stamina and mentality to our coach who is responsible to choose us. I still remember when we had our 1st fitness test. It was so hard and I feel pain all over the body especially my legs and my so called "6 packs" for a weeks.. I tried my best not to laugh because if i do laugh, Im sure i'll cry for the pain in my stomach. We had our practice at 4pm and ran around the court 10 rounds every evening and some times 2.4km on the LMC track. Hahaha.. I still remember our faces when our coach say that we have stamina test which we need to run 2.4km in less than 15 minutes. We were shivering, pale and our hands was so cold. But in the end we managed to do it, oh yeah. Dont ask me to do it now, because im sure i cant, i need to train for months to do it again. What important is, we were over tanned and Im sure we were the darkest basketballer players for girl team in the tournament.

Each of us have our own partner in the team. Comel ft Lina, Kath ft Didie, Yam ft Doe and Mona ft Pris, this was because we were paired up according to our role in the team. Wanna know bout our role?? ask me and them.. I really love to see comel n lina layup during fast break, Kath n Didie do their 2 n 3 point shots, Yam n Doe use their "power" to grab the ball n shot from under basket and sharp and fast pass from Ramona.. For me, we are perfect for each other, we understand each of our ability. Its not easy to have that kind of chemistry in the team, thanks to our Coach Anis for make it possible.

We were getting SILVER which we just lost 2 points or 1 shot to our opponent team. Our ending is the same like Coach Carter. Even thought we didnt get #1, but we are the best we can be. I still remember when our coach ran and shout from outside of the court untill some of others coaches say he is "Monkey" but for BTB he is our hero. He know how to set the game, who in and out. You great coach, wish I can be in your team again. We cried a lot after the final match.. Seriusly, we have no mood. We know we can win, but God knows what the best for us.

We usually practice with pressure from others lecturers and players. Sometime our fitness coach and other's team coach will provoke us and call us with animal name such as "ayam" (chiken), "udang" prawn and "sotong".. They also called us "sayur" when we are exhausted. We played basketball 40 minutes without time out or rest. Coach say we must run up and down as a team, it is to cover any mistakes made by the opponent or our own team mates.

Our coach do invite us to his house and having dinner because his wife cook mee jawa (if im not mistake) and we do eat like we never eat mee jawa before.. He played Coach Carter movie and we watch together. We realize

that coach use some of Coach Carter's words and motivation such as "Play your game, not their game"..

I write this post because I miss them a lot. Wanna hangout, chit chat, sleepover and ofcoz playing basketball with them again. Girls, my layup and my shoot getting poor now. Wawawa.. Never mention bout my stamina, I'm really outdated and expired already.. Need to workout like hell again in order to be like before. Thanks for the memories, I feel like I wanna cry while im writing this post.. Huhuhuhu.. Let make reunion girls..
