Rummaging around in my computer, I came across 2 old videos which I haven't seen in a looong time. It invoked memories of times spent playing street soccer after-school hours, and during holidays at Kolam Ayer CC street soccer court, located outside the then-Victoria School @3 Geylang Baru Lane (currrently the residence of Cedar Girls' Sec). Ahhh such was the joy of teenage life...
The 1st video features me as a scrawny 17-year old fresh after O-levels playing with my classmates.
The 2nd video features me as a scrawny 18-year old playing with my fellow-scrawny brudders from Maelstrom (when are we gonna play there again?!!!). Interestingly, there was a catch. I was the lone guy playing against the opposite team. One-Man Hikam playing against 5 others. This was because we made a deal that whichever team scores a goal, can choose to eliminate one guy from the opposing team, until none is left. As you can see my team wasn't doing very well, all resting outside the cage, and I was the last remaining from my team because the opposing team apparently thought I was best in my team at football and so wanted to fool around with me. Konghasam betoi.
