Hey Hestia,
Today we found out (kind of) that we weren't in the finals for CCC.
To be honest, right now I don't really feel anything. I think I haven't really accepted reality yet, but when it does come it will hit home, hard.
I'm sure all of us feel this way,
some of us already feeling mild depression (or maybe a big depression)
some of us maybe nothing, for now.
But we will, because it is sad.
For the past month and December, all of us trained hard and long, and I really thought that we would get in. I daresay that I thought we were better than ma'ams in the CCC 2012 video on Youtube. I was quite confident that both teams would get in, I think many of us were quite sure too.
We lost. But we didn't fail.
Through the past two months, we forged stronger bonds between one another, gained much greater appreciation for ma'ams, bonded with ma'ams, had lots of fun, upped our standard, gained muscles, gained experience and transited into a love CC squad.
Honestly tell me, if that's not something, then what is? We may not have won anything this time round, but this should only make us more determined to stand up stronger and taller than before. Granted, we're allowed to, cry, mourn, over our loss. Yes, do that. But only for a day, or two.
THEN GET BACK UP.
We'll be taking over soon. We have to remain strong and united to train and help the next batch of CCC people and squads to become independent and resourceful, just like how our Iris, Zephyr and Astraia ma'ams have helped us to grow.
We lost the battle, But we won't lose the war.
Let's get back up, buck up and aim to get into the finals for next competitions (like shooting huehue)
CCC marked the end of something great. But it also marks the start of something which we play a very important role in.
Jiayou Hestia! We can do this!
Dream high, reach far
Hestia's ze best
