Enough of gloomy, 'blizzardy' and overall shitty weather of Madison. Finally, the spring, which seemed like it wasn't going to come here forever, has appeared. Every time around this season, I get extremely active. I just feel like I have to compensate for my lazy sedentary lifestyle that was residing inside of me. Nowadays, I usually bike to classes, to the library and to my dorm. This lets me to actually eat rice because I commute to my room for meals, which saves me lots of money and at the same time makes me healthy. Asians without rice? It's nearly impossible to imagine...

Anyways, from my memory, every beginning of spring for 4 years, I started to play basketball actively. Well, I ran and biked a lot too, but it was always accompanied by numerous hours of playing b-ball out at the Cornell court (Which was also our rendezvous for a long time). It continued throughout all summer. My days was pretty routine; I played basketball at the court until I was exhausted, then headed to the bubble tea house or the Wilson Farms in collegetown with friends, bought an Arizona tea and almost chugged it. The icy cold lemonade was the panacea to heat and tiredness.

But the thing is, although I've been constantly doing that for four years of my summer, I haven't really improved much. I mean, yes, I got better a little bit, but it was nowhere closer to the amount of time I have spent. Playing basketball for four continuous summer should have made me pretty decent, but I wasn't.

Now when I think about it, I think it's because I lacked the essential skills in playing basketball. My form wasn't  correct. It was awful. Then was I able to carry out good team plays? Don't even bother to mention. Good pass then? Not really. Thinking back, I feel like I didn't make a good use of those times.

Now, I think the time for the correction has come. In college I'm still playing basketball as actively as I did back in Ithaca. And at the same time, I'm trying to rectify (The word I found today that sounds quite smart) my forms and trying to understand some essentials in team play. I spend at least hour and a half shooting balls everyday, and I'm trying to wake up early in the morning to get some extra practice in. Lets hope I can keep up with those schedules and really become better this time. I mean I've spent enough time playing this sports. I should be better than this. Lets do it! Come on Tae!!!
