It’s over. UAAP Season 74′s Men’s Basketball Championship goes to Ateneo. To tell you the truth, I care less of who’s going to win. After all, I came from UP and inasmuch as I don’t want to swallow the bitter pill, the basketball arena was never my alma mater’s cup of tea. My roommate who’s neither an Atenean nor a LaSallian herself is overjoyed. Having most, if not all of her relatives graduate from Ateneo, she feels the same excitement and ecstacy over Ateneo’s recent win.

Back when I was in college, I never really felt the high of the UAAP. I don’t know if being in UP Manila instead of studying in Diliman played a factor but most of people I know from UPM weren’t much into it either. We’ve been accustomed to just watching the action from the comforts of our La-Z Boys (oh how i wish!) and enjoying the sight of seeing the extremes of emotions unfold at Araneta.

The game ended more than half an hour ago but they’re still celebrating over at Araneta. With this big win over their archrival, the celebration wouldn’t stop within the walls of Araneta. The Ateneans are surely in cloud nine five time over. I wonder how it feels like to be up there. :)

Looking for diet pills perhaps?
