Yet on the 31st of March 2007, there is something that I’m so proud of…. So damn very proud of. Though the perosn who had accomplised this amazing feat wasn’t me…. I feel damn proud still cause my younger brother has gotten the second placing in the 1st ever Singapore National Barister Competition. My own brother… Going through with him, the heats and subsequently through the finals. I’ve seen a side of my brother that I have never seen. Him been worried and at the same time so focus on the event…
Though I had expected that he would get the 1st placing but nevertheless, he had lost to a better opponent. He had gain the most important thing in this competition, that is the experience and the exposure… Though he may have missed the 1st place he has made an lasting impression on the panel of international judges… I believed that he will emerged the winner in the next event and head off to conquer new horizen… The International Barister Competition… And I hope that he will get the most honoured placing of the World Best Barister…
Well it’s a elder brother’s hope… Even if he did not achieved it next year I believed in his abilities and passion to the art of coffee making, he will eventually stand at the top of the world. I hope to be able to stand by and assist him in this quest… Though he may have no need of me… Nonetheless.. I’m proud of this brother of mine.
