A couple of different things have happened this summer. First off, Calculus grabbed me by my skull and knee-to-face action began. Then, History followed up with a pipe wrench to my nads. Then, job demands picked up a very large rock and squished mine and wulfa's free time like a bug.
And finally as I lay on the ground head spinning with integrals and european politics of times past I realized I had nothing else to do in WoW and no desire to log in.
And that I had nothing of interest happening.
And then? And THEN? The world cup.
Yeah there goes 6 hours of my day at least every morning that I don't have school.
A moment here to sit in silent reflection for the goal that was wrongfully taken from the world.
And yeah the WORLD FREAKIN CUP. I'm a soccer fan who doesn't know much about soccer. I'm more of just a fan. I LOVE watching it. I get passionate about teams that I've never seen before. I fall in love when teams overachieve(New Zealand), set new records(Swiss), have Drogba on their team(he's awesome), and look amazing(German first game).
I find new villains and new hates:
(Slovania I didn't even know you had a team a month ago and now I hold everything against you)
(France hah whiners you deserve this[not the nation... you guys I feel bad for])
(Brazil. I'm so tired of how everyone blabs about how awesome you are and you don't even look as good as Portugal or Germany have in their games that I've watched)
And the entire time I'm having to ask Wulfa and friends if "x" was really a foul, what the heck set pieces meant(I know now), why that guy did that and everyone thought it was stupid, and finally how the hell that goal didn't count.
Yeah I'm not knowledgeable but I make up for it in passion and excitement. Yay for the World Cup.
p.s. New Zealand I swear if you win this next game I will love you forever.
p.s.s. My secret unbelievable dream that will never happen? US V Mexico in the final. My section of the world would just DIE if that happens.
p.s.s.s. I watch all the US games but missed the Mexico France game. I was calling a friend to find out the score and when they were up 1-0 I was trash talking because my friend wanted france to win. I hung up and took about 3 steps when I heard this roar from a nearby building. I called him back to celebrate the next Mexican goal.
P.s^4 I want and demand that the following teams advance:
Group C
The US
Group D
Ghana
Group E meh I don't care
Group F
New Zealand and Paraguay
Group G
Is (Brazil 4 - Portugal 0) (Ivory Coast 7 - North Korea 0) a pipe dream? Surely it isn't that impossible? I mean.... I can hope right? Wish upon a star? hahahah I can't even ask for this in a straight face.... but it would be AWESOME...
Group H
Swiss
