5 Seconds of Pure Adrenaline

Interclass competitions are here again! How fun. P: Everyone's taking this chance to skip as many classes as possible. xD Hardihardihar. Anyway, I'm taking part in all the competitions, save badminton.

With two days already down, today being the third, time seems to pass rather fast. We've already (against all odds) won 2/3 of the table tennis, and the badminton team was crazy enough to win 3 out of all 3 rounds. Woot! Volleyball and basketball isn't completely over yet, so I won't post about those too fast. :P

So today the only competitions us girls had were badminton and basketball. Not forgetting that badminton and table tennis is now mixed, as in, boys and girls play on the same team. :O Which is the reason we're doing pretty well in those two, the boys keep covering for table tennis, and the girls cover for badminton. xD

Anyway, the basketball competition today was epic. We were going against K class, who lost to L class, like we did. I was reserve for a while and cheering with our class (and two other classes who were supporting us) until Dana got tired/injured. I'd learn my lesson the other round and just stuck to mugging people so they couldn't get the ball. In all, I think I only touched the ball like... what? 5 times? xD

One of the girls in my class got scolded for cursing when she missed while shooting during a foul. It was kind of funny really. She also threw the ball back at the referee when we were supposed to fight for it, resulting to yet another foul.

By the 13th minute, we were losing 5-7 (or 3-5). Naturally, we were panicking and trying to find a way to catch up, but for a while, no one scored. When Mushroom finally got the ball, the people were already counting down. As in, there was only FIVE flippin' minutes left. What the hell did they want us to do? A miracle?!

Undaunted, Mushroom turned and made for the hoop. With two seconds left, I think just about everyone doubted that she could do anything to change the scored. Stopping just behind the three point line, she shot. Loud silence. Everything seemed to go slow, and then zoom! The ball went clear through the hoop! The crowd started screaming like all hell broke loose, and the referee just stood staring with the whistle in her mouth. Honestly, I didn't hear the ending whistle. Who could have, with all that havoc going on.
