Of team spirit and unity…

     It’s been a long long while since I feel so proud and touched to be with a certain bunch of people and the 3rd batch of dentistry student in AIMST university just reminded me how great that feeling is… I am so so honoured to be in this great class!! The awesome unity, the together-ness.. Beats the always-united-and-together burger and patty anytime.. (No, I still dunno why I used that illustration…Lol…)

      If you didn’t get the chance to witness our near-miraculous win in tug of war 2day, you’ve just missed out on the most touching scene of the year, ok, fine, month, ok fine, only among our batch most probably..But still… We won the tug-of-war event!!! Many of you will think “pfft, big deal…” right?? So let me lay down the groundwork… No one expected us to win.. In fact, no one though we COULD win.. We were deemed weak.. Loud but empty.. Losers… Plus the fact that our final match was against last year’s winner… Hopeless ain’t it?Impossible I hear?? Oh, but we showed them!! We showed them well!! The participants pulled in one accord, the supporters chanted and cheered us on in one voice, one goal, for us to win and not hurt ourselves… We even have our very own conductor- David leading the pack… We’ll admit that we may not be stronger, we may not be bigger, we may not be the favourite, but we were definitely tugging that thick rope with our all… It feels like the 10 pair of hands strongly holding onto that thick rope without letting go has 39 other pairs of hand invisibly helping at the same time… The supporters were shouting their lungs out the whole time without fail and that itself motivates us tuggers to pull harder.. To the ends of the earth if needs be I tell you!! The whole sea of red-jersey-clad-ppl were doing everything as one and the moment we won the match, the supporters were the ones crying in joy… now THAT is the extend our class feels for each other… No matter the result, at the very least, we can proudly say we gave it our best.. Winning or losing?? Don’t know , don’t care.. Winning is of course undeniably an extra reward but otherwise, am sure all of us will appreciate the memories created throughout ADSAlympics this year… Just wanna say, good job, good job, Batch 3!! We’re seriously one red hot fighting team!! To all participants and supporters alike, we were awesome!! The week wouldn’t be half as fun nor memorable otherwise… Love love love our batch!!! Keep it up!!

PS Sorry Philip for losing your muscle pain reliever!!!
