PG 13: The shoes that witness my hardwork as a student.

This photo was taken after a tiring game with the opposing team during our campus intramurals. As what I haved mention before in my previous blog playing basketball was one of the hobbies I loved to do during my years on college. Even though we did not win still by looking at our faces it shows that the true spirit of playing basketball is by putting all your dedication in doing your best and have fun, I am also grateful because playing basketball did not only make me happy I also met new people that sooner became my companions.

Basketball was truly my favorite sports since then not to mention me being a Kobe Bryant fan. I started to love basketball when I was way younger, when I was ten years old father would always turn the TV on channel 5 to watch NBA with his friend while having the of their life drinking booze. They always do this after a long week working for their family. The first time I watched the NBA I remember Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers played for team USA reedem team at the 2008 summer olympics. After a brief moment of observing the game my heart felt excited and I said to myself "I wanna be like him", but life can sometimes change it's course I was not been able to train like Kobe somehow I still manage to enjoy playing basketball as hobby.

I first bought these pair of Paul George 13 as a birthday present for myself. The story behind these shoes is a memorable one, you see while I was studying I also got the chance to be one of the chosen working student scholar that help me go through many years in college. Yes, you heard it right I study and work at the same time only I am a working student of the school I also have other extra curricular activities going on outside like I join singing contest, I play basketball tournaments, I even do sideline job as call center agent. So you see these shoes was my partner for life I wear these all the time, I wear it at school events or most of the time going to my graveyard shift work at night. These pair of shoes although it may look unwearable today I never intend to just throw it away.

I experienced a lot of pain and sacrifice with a single pair of shoes but all those memories of hardwork paid off. I finished college and made my parents proud. These piece of material witness my journey not just from my hobby of playing basketball also on how I manage to carve my path as a working student.

Many years had past since I graduated from college, it never gets old to keep track of the past. If we have time me and my best of friends still cope up with each other just to play basketball.

In this picture is my new pair of shoes which i bought out of success doing hard work. Until then what I learned being a working student is that you must not give up on life. Life is like basketball in every quarter you may win or lose the important part is your effort to pursue your dreams.

That's all folks! Another day, another blog thank you fellow hivers for having the time to read this one. Keep moving forward and live the life you love. Also you must not forget to reward yourself too. Always keep safe and don't forget to smile.
