Ateneo vs. FEU

I was able to watch the game live today at Araneta together with my sisters. Getting Upper A tickets was more than enough already. But getting Patron tickets on the last minute was definitely a big big bonus. I was excited to finally get good seats without having to go through the hassles of fighting with fellow early birds in reserving seats in the Upper A sections as what we have always do in the past games. I noticed that Ateneans are always more excited compared to the other schools. The Upper A always fills up quickly even hours before the game. Another bonus that you get from the Patron tickets is getting to sit in the same section with the former basketball players like Enrico Villanueva, Wesley Gonzalez, Rich Alvarez, Gec Chia, and et al. But I must say the highlight of the day for me was when I saw Paolo sitting right in front of us. I won't mention his last name anymore just in case someone reads this. Hehe

You see, Paolo was...I think my last crush before I left Ateneo. I used to stalk him...I'd always look forward to every TTh, 130-3pm classes because I knew that I would see him at CTC. I also knew that he was a frequent UAAP patron. So it was nice getting to be at close range. I know it may sound pathetic. After all, he doesn't even know my name...not to mention all I saw today was his back! But still...

The game was a close one. There was a time Ateneo led up to 12 points I think. But as usual, FEU was able to catch up. It was a good thing the players were able to maintain the lead...LA Tenorio was the main man today. He shot a couple of 3's...Bugia has not been playing his best for the past few games already. I hope he'll make a big comeback in the next game. Ateneo needs him!! I also have to give credit to the other players. They played with effort.

I'm looking forward to the next Ateneo game. I hope I'd be able to score some nice seats again.
