In which le crepe de banane is <3.

Welldone RJC-Banana Pancake, for our awesome performance at ACSI Ultimate Invitationals 2009. It was an exciting 2 days, and an absolutely, nail-bitingly intense 3rd-4th placing match. I’m still so super high after we won. Such was our desire to enter the lucky draw that would be held for the top 3 teams. Well done everyone la! It was a pleasure to play with such a wonderful team, that was able to hold its composure even when down by 2 points with 2.5 minutes to go. Now there be props to be given out to people:

To Wee Kian for sharing his enthusiasm of playing against cup defences, and being such a dependable leader.

To Brian and Kenneth, for being part of the unstoppable handler line, which always manages to slowly but mercilessly move up the field.

To Yong En, for being a comfortable mid-mid to pair with.

To Abi Thio and Xu Rui, for really surpassing and outperforming themselves this competition.

To Jarrell for his brief but extremely helpful aid in covering for us, and making our group stages that much easier, with an extra player.

To Nickoo the perennial sneaky bugger, who assisted the match-winning point, along with countless other assists and hucks.

To Choon for doing a perfect high-release huck, and for keeping very very cool, and blasting out with the equalising hammer in the final minute of the 3rd-4th match, with about 20seconds left on the clock.

Imma really quite happy, cos there was a lucky draw for the players of the top 4 teams (now they decided to tell us it was 4, gah), with one ipod shuffle to be won by someone from each of those teams, and LUCKY ME LANDED IT!!!! :D :D an absolutely perfect end to a such a emotionally intense day.

For really real men use pink stuff to compensate for their manliness.

Back of the medal, with the ipod again.
Anyone who has any photos of RJC-Banana Pancake, our 3rd-4th placing match, or when we were collecting our medals, can please inform me? I would so like to see whatever constipated facial expression I had when we finally won.
