My battalion is having a inter-company soccer tournament next wk and we have been practising for the past 2 days for it. People who know me well enough would probably know that i do have pretty strong passion for soccer.
Okay, i know you guys are going to start laughing and say things like "You really ought to learn kicking the ball into the net rather than into each other's faces you know" etc. etc. .... so go ahead and laugh ... Your positive support is just lovely. *rolls eyes*
C'mon, Asian guys aren't really natural soccer players, but soccer is one of the sports which we really enjoy, where we can compete, vent our aggression and work as a team.... (yea, gals will never ever understand our fascination with soccer eh..)
And did I mention the fun?
The sheer comedy in the difference between what you meant to do, and what actually happens.
Half the time I'm using the filthiest language i know, the other half, I'm helpless with laughter.
Granted, most of it, i guess, is pretty horrendous stuff. But occasionally, one of us will produce a crunching tackle or a brilliant shot; like where did that come from?? And on these occasions, you have that feeling that you haven't played the shot, the shot had played you.. ( erhmm, get wat i'm saying?? haha.. nvmind...)
Yeah, and the whole hour or two is worth it just for that incredible feeling you get from hitting on of those shots...
And speaking of soccer, it has been yet another depressing performance from my beloved man utd. I can't belive i dragged my fat, lazy ass up at 3.30am in the morning to see Porto F.C dominate a lackluste United, score two weak goals against it, witness Wes Brown putting in yet another horrible performance and see Roy Keane get sent off in the dying moments of the match.
This sucks man.
With the defence down to bare bones, Man Utd's grasp on their Premiership title is fast turning to dust.
Personally, i think the Premiership is out of reach for the red devils BUT i still think they might actually have a shot at the European Cup...
Impossible?
Nah.
The ball is round and it ain't over till the fat lady sings....
C'mon United!!
