PAS vs Kuang-Hua

   Today is the day when the girls basketball team has a game against Kuang-Hua Middle School, and we get our new jerseys. Our new jerseys are blue, and they are double-sided. In addition, my number has changed from 2 to 10. I and Esther’s ankles are injured, so Mr. Li winds bandage around our foot. After the tight bandage is on, I have a strange feeling for walking, and also I think I can’t run fast. The final result of the game is 39 to 46, which we get 39 points. Although we lose, 39 is the highest point that we’ve ever got for playing so many games. I think the game is somewhat unfair because the judges fail to whistle when the opponent team has fouls. The opposing team hits, blocks, pushes us, but the judges don’t do anything, just like nothing happened. However, there are still happy parts of the game. I, Caroline get in lots of hoops. No matter how we shoot, the ball seems like being controlled by the remote, it would just get in. After playing some many games, our team’s flaw is that we are always unprepared for the first period, when the opposing team finds a good chance to shoot in many hoops. Falling behind lots of points is a bad sign, because our confidence would collapse, and we wouldn’t want to put in our heart and effort into the game anymore. Mr. Li tells us we have to be prepared before the first period, and we need to trust ourselves that we aren’t that bad. If we’re leading the game, we wouldn’t feel tired at all.
