Yesterday, I was scanning on TV for a show to watch and believe it or not, almost all local TV programs talks about the latest and hottest showbiz chismis. Well it's sad to say but sometimes I get hook-up and watched those whose who! Anyway... as I switch channels in finding some good, educational and action pack programs, I ended up watching the Semi-Finals of UAAP Women's Volley Ball between FEU and UST.

As the scorecards says that the FEU Lady Tamarraw’s has a twice to beat advantage over the UST Lady Tigers. The FEU won that match and so they had advance to the Finals against a strong team such as La Salle. Now someone might ask me when did I start watching women’s volleyball? It started way back in late 90's to early 2000's when the World Women’s Volleyball Grand Prix was held in Manila and it introduced the best volleyball players from around the world. The Filipino’s easily adapts the ball game like the basketballs due to most of the players are an Eye Candy. One of the players, maybe the most popular one is Leila Barros of Team Brazil. She easily catch the attention of all Filipino’s with her angelic face yet very aggressive spiker that ever played the Philippine court. She’s also the team captain that led the team to grab the first place in manila leg and push the team to qualify for the 2001 Olympics.

Volleyball Legend: Leila Barros

For almost a decade that been absent on news about the volleyball world, yesterday's volleyball scene seems to flashback all the memories from the past. I admit it that I watch and finish the ball game. One of the things that caught my attention is the Team Captain of the FEU Lady Tamarraw’s: Rachelle Anne Daquis. She's an instant Eye Candy for me. A very intelligent player, model like face and figures, an ace player, a crowds favorite and the best player of that game. For me, it resembles Leila Barros at her time as an Eye Candy. It's sad to say that this will be my last time to see her in action coz this will be her fifth and last year on the team, and sooner she will be graduating and venturing different path. I’m looking forward for the time that she will be playing for the Nationals.

Power Spiker

As a Nike Endorser

As for now, I may not be an alumni of FEU but surely I will be cheering the team to grab the championship ring for this season. Good luck Chelle and the rest of Lady Tamarraw's.
Break a leg!
