jiaolian had a talk with me today and she touched on issues that were precisely what xinyi and i were talking about that day, about respect to seniors, and the attitudes of some people, no names.

its hard to imagine how 32 people in volleyball cant seem to bond, its either everyone's too immersed in their own self centered world or maybe its just the pride. But anyhow, no discrimination to anyone or any school. but i feel that other NON-IP schools have better school spirit, and take for example my sister's soccer team. They're super bonded, they have trus team spirit. its so obvious that even when i watch her match as an outsider, you can tell they're really bonded. and you can feel the spirit. that sounds wrong. :l

then you take a look at our team. sometimes during training the atmosphere isnt there, the passion for volleyball just isnt there, the air feels dead, and everyone doesnt have the mood to train. and the training just practically goes to waste, everyone's doing what they HAVE to do, and not that they WANT to do it. sure they're times that everyone gets terribly high, and the modd is there for training and you can see the WANT to train.

seriously, its not a matter of how good you are at volleyball, it all depends on your character. im not saying that my character is acceptable. but at least they have the bare minimum respect. and we shall do something about it. [:
