What drives the the passion?

I feel truly privileged to have been recruited to play for my school. I believe that sports is a powerful force for good in our country – it brings people together. A lot of people ask why I blog and why sports. In a nutshell, it is a written dedication to promote sports especially varsity sports.

I hope that through this, I would be able to light some souls and promote sports, the passion for it and to reignite school spirit.

Ultimately, my mission is to teach sports enthusiasts how they can go to college for free by playing the sport they love.

Aspirations

When I grow old, I’d like to see myself  as a respected sports writer and sports ambassador, a promoter of an international language – sports. Albeit for the most part of my playing career, I never was exemplary like those that played games at it’s highest level. I aspire to be like  Micheal Jordan, Tiger Woods and Manny Pacquiao. They all are leaders and champions. By playing his sport, Pacquiao unites us Filipinos. Rick Olivares, Chino Trinidad,  Quinito Henson are some of the local sports writers I admire.

At the end of the day, I’m just glad loving and celebrating sports and I’m forever grateful to give back something to the sports community in a meaningful way.
