It's Not Just Paintball...It's a Way of Life!

oh paintball...
the stories
the friendships
the mamaks
the men
the travels
i miss you!

i was going through the forums and I read a post from a paintball friend called Vegas. and it got me thinking...

and blogging....

there things in your life that you never turn your back on. one of that for me is paintball. i was never really part of any team in particular, but the doors- and windows too- that it opened up made me see life in a different way.

alot of things have changed since I embraced the sport in 2003. players have moved on to different paths, teams have re-grouped, changed names and fought for sponsorship. for past four years, the introduction of more tournaments, whether local and international have given the sport a spotlight in Malaysia and in neighboring Asian countires. from a mere weekend gathering to most friends it now has rulebooks and certified refs. all these have definitely given paintball a different face.

whether these developments are a push or pull for the sport, will always get varying opinions. but I step away and remember it as a sport that gave me a chance to know what career I want to be in, travel to and embrace my second home country and most especially it brought into my life people that taught me about life, love and othe mysteries.

they say that the best way to know a person is through a game or a sport. i would have to agree.
