00:00 Hi, I'm Aeah Lauret, 24, from Cherokee Bucos, Philippines.

00:04 We started playing volleyball because Addy and I were really into it.

00:19 But Addy and I were always playing outside our house.

00:22 Then I joined him in his training in the US.

00:26 I kept training in the US because my parents wanted me to join them.

00:34 My parents told Addy that I should try it.

00:38 So I tried, and from there, I started playing volleyball.

00:42 I was in the 8th grade, and my sister was my setter.

00:45 At that time, I was just starting to play volleyball.

00:48 The UAE team was still new to me.

00:51 I probably won't be able to forget the times I used to set him as a setter.

00:57 Now, it's a different feeling since we're in the same position.

01:02 I think it's an advantage that even though we're in the same position,

01:07 we don't have the competition that we need to be better than each other.

01:10 We're not like that.

01:12 We're more in a relationship where we're trying to be better.

01:16 So we're telling each other our weaknesses.

01:19 We're not sugarcoating each other's weaknesses.

01:22 We know that we want to be better each day.

01:26 That's one way for us to have a healthy relationship.

01:30 It's fun because I have coaches.

01:33 My coach, Coach Ian, and Coach Boto are there too.

01:37 I see them every day.

01:39 I also have former teammates like Pong Guy.

01:42 He was my former teammate in high school.

01:45 I have Ate Alina, my sister, and Ivy.

01:49 Even if my transition from UAAP to Pro wasn't that rough,

01:54 they still had the same vibe and feeling.

01:59 Of course, I have new coaches and teammates who are willing to guide me.

02:07 During training and during games, I can do my job better.

02:11 You don't feel like you're working.

02:13 You feel like you're just training every day.

02:16 You go to training, you learn new things, you improve your skills.

02:20 That's when I feel like I'm reviving.

02:24 It's more on Ate EJ, on how she plays.

02:27 It's more on speed.

02:29 She can score points on her own without using her power.

02:34 I'm more on the power side.

02:37 I always need to be strong.

02:39 Now that I'm with her, I'm inspired.

02:42 Every time I make an impossible goal, I score a goal.

02:47 That's one advantage for me.

02:50 I'm with my sister, not just as a sister, but as a teammate.

02:55 I'm always reminded that I need to improve.

02:59 Who am I now? I need to learn.

03:02 To the supporters of Cherry Tigo Crossovers,

03:05 thank you so much for your love and support.

03:11 I hope to see you live or on social media.

03:14 Thank you so much.

03:15 I hope you'll continue to support our team.
