Dewa Athena

What are you thinking when first hearing the word "Athena"? Is it the goddess of wisdom like in Greek Mythology? 

Goddess Of Wisdom, Athena

No, apparently, it isn't. Dewa Athena is an event held by my school, SMAN 3 Bandung. It is basically a sport championship. This year, it was held from March, 10th to 12th 2016. Dewa Athena was being held in Bali Sports Field from morning until noon around 1 until 2 o'clock. 

Those sports that are contested are :

• soccer
• basketball
• volley
• tug-of-war
• badminton
• dodgeball
• relay race
• and a traditional game called "Gobak Sodor". But before the event started, we have to send representation from our class for every sports that are being held.

So, at the first day, we felt (kinda) excited because there would be many fun match to watch. The first sport championship was the basketball championship. Our class played in the 3^rd turn. And it was so exciting to watch. We all supported our players and we won! 

But after basketball match, we began to separate because there are other sport matches that had to be followed at the same time.

As for me, I got a chance to played in Relay Race. The Relay Race Team consisted of 4 people, which were Haifa, Najmi, Radhin, and me. We sure did all the best we could, but unfortunately we lost. Our team lost by 1 second because we almost win :( . Seriously.

So, after that, some of my friends and I began to watch our friend’s matches. We watched dodgeball match but unfortunately we lost. We were lost by 1 point. Again. 

*sad faces*

We watched volleyball match which was really fun. We cheered from the end of the sportfield with really loud voice to kept our friends spirits to finish the game. But the result was still unclear at the time. So we still didn’t know who’s winning. 

*another sad faces*

Oh, we didn’t watch badminton match because my friend said not to watch. She said that it was because she didn’t want to lose concentrate when playing, so she said it was better to came out with a victory. And yes, THEY WIN (it was a double match)! Yeah well they were actually lose at the 2^nd round but it’s okay.

*smiling faces*

Why? Because it doesn’t matter who’s the winner. The only thing that matters is our struggle to give everything we have. And as long as we give the best we could do, the results would be worth it. :)
