I am fan
of UAAP/NCAA and PBA. These leagues are based in Manila, so I get contented
with watching them on TV. An opportunity came when our National basketball
team, Smart Gilas Pilipinas had a 2-day exhibition game in Cebu. I, with my
sports buddies Kim and Camille didn’t have second thoughts of watching the game
live. Who would not take that opportunity? You’re going to see up close and
personal the most popular basketball players in college – Chris Tiu, JR
Cawaling, Dylan Ababou, Mac Baracael, Mark Barroca, Aldrech Ramos, Japeth Aguilar,
RJ Jazul, Greg Slaughter and of course the champion coach Rajko Toroman. Plus,
I got to take a picture with Trish Roque, one of my favourite courtside
reporters in the UAAP.

| The only angle that we got for we were behind them. |
We were seated at the lower box section behind
the bench of the Gilas team but we failed to take pictures with them. We were
hesitant to approach them and ask for a picture, it was our first time and we
were wearing our school uniforms. We just got contented of staring at their
faces. Hahahaha!!!

Look out. It's Chris Tiu!

At that
time, we were very sure that the team will come back to Cebu and play. So, we
promised to be more ready – we will sit at courtside so that it will be easy to
take pictures, never wear our school uniforms and of course, never hesitate to
ask the players to take pictures with them (in short pabaga sa nawong).
