Coz I'm turning into a football freak

Fulham 0-1 Liverpool

"Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez looked like becoming the latest Big Four manager to fall to the curse of the Cottage.

Then up popped substitute Yossi Benayoun, four minutes into injury time, to smash a right-foot shot past Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer to send Liverpool the top of the Premier League."

(http://espnstar.com/football/premier-league/news/detail/item237984/The-BPL-Saturday-Review/)

I stayed up til 3am last night watching the game in star sports. At first I thought Liverpool could easily goal against fulham but i was so wrong. Last 20 minutes of the game I was already losing hope but thanks to the sub Benayoun who made a goal during stoppage time, liverpool was able to win. Dossena and Dirk Kuyt were replaced by Babel and Benayoun during the last 20 minutes of the game. I thought that was a wrong move by Benitez because Dossena and Kuyt are really good players but the goal made at stoppage-time showed that it was a wise decision. :)
Liverpool's game was really superb! They were just all pumped up and ready to win. Torres, Alonso, Dossena all hit the bar during the first half. They deserved it since they dominated the game :).
They're now on top of the premier league and let's hope they stay there. :) Aston Villa, please win :)

Can't wait for FIFA World Cup 2010

OOOHHYEAAAHHHH!!! Because i have nothing better to do here at home. All I've been doing is reading news about FIFA 2010 qualifiers. Spain, Paraguay, Australia, South Korea, and England can start looking at flights to South Africa (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/international/worldcup/5093244/World-Cup-2010-Five-teams-who-can-start-looking-at-flights-to-South-Africa.html). I really hope Spain wins the 2010 World Cup. :P.

Spain's players at Madrid during their game against Turkey.

Btw, what's happening to Argentina? their last game in La Paz is really woah, shocking. They only had one goal and Bolivia had 6. This game sorta reminds me of Argentina's (6) game against Serbia and Montenegro (0) during the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany. I was rooting for Argentina last world cup but they didn't make it coz they lost against Germany :(

Introduction to Passports

During the the last english class I promised myself to continue writing passports. FYI, in english class, a passport is not a document used for the purpose of international travel but rather a document written on a 4x6 index card where we (the seniors of AC) write about anything we want to share to the teacher. I'm actually not sure why they're called passports...all i know is that when a student doesn't have a passport, she can't participate in class or she's sent out of the AV1 plus get 'sermoned' at.

My passports really helped me to just keep going, not to lose hope and live life.

Most of my entries were about stress, all my emo-ness, and i vent out too. What i really love about the passport is that the comments of my teacher just magically turns everything into the right place. You know how you feel very negative about yourself and then you read a piece of paper saying that 'it's ok' or 'good job!' then suddenly you feel like the whole world is smiling at you? Well, that's how i feel when i read the comments. They're like affirmations and affirmations save people :)

So from now on, every wednesday i will write a passport (which can be read by the whold world! :)) haha.) Comments are soo welcome! :)

Pioneer Radical Change

Pioneer Radical Change

Close your eyes
Look back and relive
All our firsts and adventures

Can’t you see
That we’ve made
This world so much better?

Gone through the motions
Living as a passer by
Until we spread our wings and teach the world to fly

It will all fit together
Don’t be scared to make that change
There’s a chance that we might fall
But we'll take a leap of faith

Chorus:
But for now won't you hold on me
Be the change that we want to see
As cliché as this line might be
Our dreams will be reality

Counterpoint:
But for now won't you hold on me // No distance will break us apart
Be the change that we want to see // It’s not the end it's just the start
As cliché as this line might be // The universe is ours to take
Our dreams will be reality // Still together in the change we make

No distance will break us apart
It's not the end it's just the start
The universe is ours to take
Still together in the change we make (prolong “make”)
(In the change we make)

Instrumental

We’ll never settle for the least we could achieve
The fear is there
But we don't care

Chorus:
But for now won't you hold on me
Be the change that we want to see
As cliché as this line might be
Our dreams will be reality

Counterpoint:
But for now won't you hold on me // No distance will break us apart
Be the change that we want to see // It’s not the end it's just the start
As cliché as this line might be // The universe is ours to take
Our dreams will be reality // Still together in the change we make

No distance will break us apart
It's not the end it's just the start
The universe is ours to take
Still together in the change we make
