High School Nostalgia + More

I played volleyball with fellow IH people just today. The last time I played on a volleyball court was, as far as I can remember, all the way back in early-2011. That is almost exactly two years ago. Although we only played casually, I still enjoyed it very much.

As I played, memories of high school came back to me. Commending teammates, coming in together to shout "1-2-3 Dragons" after every point, calling out balls destined to land outside the court, calling for the ball, engaging bump-set-spike play, being aggressive for the ball etc etc. Everything suddenly became so vivid, as it if were just a few weeks ago. It was an extremely memorable season for me as I captained the team under Coach Graham. The fun we had back then, even when Coach Graham was being strict to us, was nostalgic. I also craved for that feeling I had in my stomach before the start of every competitive game. Well of course, all of that are gone now. I'm just glad that I was heavily involved in high school sports. Definitely an experience like no other!

The team... go Dragons! 

Thanks to Young who booked the court. I can't wait for the next session.

Some photo updates.

1. It's graduation season and I've recently been assigned to assist the graduations office. On my first shift, I brought my camera long and took some candid shots of people graduating.




I've witnessed graduates of all ages
