Losing to life

Greetings everyone (to who comes around stillllllllll). I am back with somewhat of an update.

SURPRISE TO ALL YOU MONDAY MORNING PEOPLE.

My last blog was almost a month ago and ive been told by SO many people to do something about it (im so sorry! lol). To whom i speak to and are close with, they all knew that i was seriously losing it. Everything was just not okay. I was unhappy. I was frustrated. Job searching and interviews hit a halt. I got sick. I couldn't let go of certain things. Arsenal was doing poorly. I reached the end of my savings. Everything was so bleak and i felt like i just couldn't win. I was losing to life and I was losing badly. Defeat caught up with me and was killing me. I tell myself everyday that "it shall pass" and i just need to keep on going but it got increasingly difficult.


Then just like that. BOOM. Everything comes together in ONE WEEK.

In one week, two things.

First,

1.5 years of FT unemployment. Roughly 75 applications (give or take two)- i am bloody finally fucking employed. Fuck. It was literally one thing after another. E-mailed application > Interview (Design challenge, 4 people interview) > 2 hours later when i was STILL on the bus, call back for ref check > ref check, design challenge #2, Phone interview > Offer emailed to me at 5pm, Friday.

BOOM BITCHES. That's for all of you who would kill to see me fall.

I work my ass off, applying, constantly coming up with new, creative things to add to cover letters, infographs, etc. I did this without the help of anyone and I am proud as hell with myself and i am NOT afraid to be vain and admit that.

That said, to all my girls? This Christmas is going to be awesome. JUST SAYING.

Second, 

I still, might, perhaps, maybe, not know exactly what i want. But ive never been more sure of what i DON'T want. Consider it another lesson learned for me. Today's Shiv's Bridal Shower confirmed with me even more, of what is it that i do want. At the end of the day, i am STILL okay with being single. Until i find my Azza (footy player) of course.

# # #

i'm turning a quarter of a century in a week and a half.....ish. And i have NOT felt better than this in a VERY long time. Except perhaps my weight. (Definitely fatty mode again). But im not going to complain because this is SO much better than I asked for.

oh. and Arsenal is starting to look hopeful again.

THANKKKK YOUUUUU JEEEEBUS. 

Rough

I usually don't rant about football on this blog but i really need to get it off of my chest.

As some of you may have already known. Today Arsenal suffered their worst defeat in 115 years. Absolute devastation. I thought last season's defeat was bad when i started to cry at the pub. Nah, that was nothing compared to how we were pulverized today. Our reserves team slaughtered by wolves. Civil war between fans. Injuries, Bans, Bookings. This is a new low for us. The goals that we conceded definitely felt like stabs. The pain was so bad, I couldn't even bring myself to cry. Instead I just laughed. And drank (of course).

No judging now.

I still love Arsenal to death tho.

Just thought l'd share.

Back to work i go.

How futbol has become my substitute for a boyfriend

I stole this from my friend G on facebook and it was originally named, "How volleyball has become my substitute for a girlfriend." but instead i replaced all the words, 'volleyball', 'girlfriend', to 'futbol' and 'boyfriend' respectively plus a couple of modifications. Honest to god, its EXACTLY how i feel about futbol and i absolutely had to steal it ahhahha. COMPLETE CREDIT GOES TO HIM!!!! If you're reading this- YOU ROCK AND I OWE YOU A SHOT!!! =]]]

oh, you can also subsitute the word FUTBOL with ARSENAL too.

1) I show up early and stay late for futbol games.
2) I spend more time and energy thinking about futbol than anything else.
3) Wherever I am in the world, I'm always thinking about futbol.
4) I am willing to spend money I don't have on futbol shirts, futbol games, futbol merchandise, future futbol trips.
5) I am willing to cancel prior plans to watch futbol.
6) I am unwilling to break plans to watch futbol unless I absolutely have to.
7) I love to introduce futbol to everyone and I want all my friends to love futbol.
8) While watching futbol demands so much, it rewards me for my loyalty with their wins and the player's happy tweets.
9) Everytime I think I've figured something out about futbol, it does something to let me know I still have lots to learn.
10) I commute out of my way to watch futbol.
11) Futbol requires more commitment; both time and effort, than I have ever given to anyone or anything.
13) My relationship with futbol has become akin to an abusive relationship: I suffer injuries and trauma watching futbol but in the end, I come crawling back to it because I love it so much.

Its sad but true. I LOVE YOU ARSENAL.

a hearty long read

ROFL SO TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!! ANDDDDD, as someone said- If the Nat and Mila made a movie, it'd be "Black Swan II" HAHAH IRONYYYY

Anyways.

Hello everyone. I know that i've been totally MIA. I promised a blog post. I promised to keep up with my photo challenge but i've failed and i'm sorry. There's just been SOOO much going on and i feel like i have no time to do anything (aside from gymming. Seems like im there a lot eh).

Primarily im preoccupied with four things: Work (Freelance & Job Interviews), Arsenal Asia Tour & Transfer News, Comic Con planning and everything else that i will lump into MISCELLANEOUS.Thought i should do a quick rant while BLOG MODE is still on.

1. Work (Freelance & Job Interviews)

Before i head out to SanDiego, i really needed to finish up revisions if i want to be paid. Also, i've spent the past few days working on a design practical as part of a hiring process for another job interview that i got for ANOTHER company. Shit, doesn't it feel like something i've said before??? And to add onto that, about an hour ago i received a phone call to arrange a prelim phone interview with a second company this coming friday. This is getting a bit fucking ridiculous. Every time it SEEMS like i am getting close to a hire......something happens but NO FEAR, i have (yet) ANOTHER prospect lined-up. Clearly, im doing something right with my job-applying and its also very clear that its something that i am not doing or doing wrong during the final round of the interview process. I mean, i made it through first of all of them, you'd THINK i was doing something right. Apparently not. Ugh. #FML.

Wish me good luck though nonetheless! I gotta start prepping for it after finishing typing this up. Don't forget to send those prayers this way!!!!

2. Arsenal Asia Tour & Transfer News

You people will PROBABLY think this is silly. But no, this is not a laughing matter nor a matter to be taken lightly. Currently my team are in Malaysia and will be traveling to CHINA to play some friendlies with the teams there. Every day i busy myself with tweetpics and tweets of how theyre doing in asia and as well concerning myself with new players who might be joining the team and those who are leaving. It's extremely overwhelming and ive expressed this to people re: how its been effecting my mood. Twitter lately hasn't been a very good place to be lately for fans like myself. But seriously though, this consumes my life.

3. Comic-Con

Indeed we are in the final countdown days until i head to San Diego!!!! Not only are there up-to-date news almost every hour for me to stay on top of, there's also the scheduling that I am SO STRESSED OUT about. Its not even FUNNY how much i have to plan for.

Just to clarify what goes on at the convention. The San Diego Comic-Con (or #SDCC) is not just an enormous party where the participants are geeks, nerds and wizards. We don't just go there to read/buy/trade comic books, to dress-up, to get autographs from comic writers and illustrators and to have jedi, telekinesis mind-sex with the opposite sex. Sure all that STILL happens (ha ha) but there's more to it including something call PANELS. Panels are basically seminars/talks/presentations. It can be anything from: Obsession: How TV and Movies Go from Fascination to Phenomenon? to Oh, You Sexy Geek! to The Vampire Diaries Screening and Q&A.

In the recent years, the TV and Movie industry caught on, on this wicked-ass gathering and decided to use this event as a method of marketing whatever they wish to promote. So tv shows such as, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, Dexter, Bones, Chuck, True Blood, Game of Thrones, Family Guy, Futurama, Big Bang Theory et more, were/are all present. CAST INCLUDED. In the past, movie previews inclded Alice in Wonderland, Sherlock Holmes, all the obvious superhero movies (X-Men, Ironman, Spiderman, Thor, etc), Tron, Twilight, Harry Potter, again, all present with the cast.


Overall its really just a huge event for geeks to unite. And lots of free swag.

Now that i've kind of explained comic con, Visual:

Yes, that is the schedule for the panels (which ive obviously shrunk to emphasize all the material im drowning in) that are available for the 3 days i am there (the convention is 4 days but im leaving that Sunday afternoon) and myyyyy task right now is to PLOW THROUGH THEM. Deciding what i REALLY want to see, what are my backups and of course, factoring in WAITING TIME for the bigger stuff i want to see. i.e. The Big Bang Theory panel which is currently more popular than the TWILIGHT panel #GEEKSUNITE.

i, repeat. i am SO stressed.

4. MISCELLANEOUS

And behold, the things i need to do and the faces i must see!

• Gym- I've been going at it pretty hardcore for the past 2 weeks. Doing two-three hour sessions, 4.5-6 times a week. Another thing that i've brought up amongst friends, is how unhappy i still am with the way i look. I'm unhappy because I know i can do better, i can look better than this. Why should i settle when i know that i am capable of achieving my ideal physique? That's what i tell myself anyways. Its a good thing that i love food way too much because I'm starting to sound like a Bulimic.
  
  
• Going out. Seeing people - No surprises here. There's peoples faces i want to see, birthdays to celebrate, catch-up that must occur. Enough said, those take up time. Not a complaint though.
  
  
• HARRY POTTER COUNTDOWN- The time has come. After ELEVEN years, it is FINALLY coming to an end, the Harry Potter movies. I have my tickets ready for Friday, I am ready to bawl my fucking eyes out, I am ready to say good bye to my childhood with twin beside me. It is going to be disgustingly epic. I'm going to type up a Harry Potter-related entry soon to commemorate friday. Await.

# # #

and just like that I ACTUALLY BLOGGED SOMETHING.

BOOOOO-YAH.

Dating a Gooner

The other day a friend messaged me to catch up and asked whether I was seeing anyone. I laughed, and told her no. I don't have time. Because of work she asked? I told her, No. Futbol.

Ahhhh that must sound SO weird right? But it's actually very true. This year is the year that Arsenal has finally taken over my life completely in all aspects (which annoys the hell out of people....because they don't understand). This discussion has come up many times between A and myself about how we are probably going to be single forever because our criteria (as listed out below) is so strict and there is no guy in this world that fits that description. We are officially screwed. I also DON'T have the time to include a guy who doesn't understand futbol. Its humanly impossible for me to fit futbol, the gym, work (whether it be FT or freelance or both), friends (this part includes partying and drinking) AND a guy into my life. That is, unless that GUY is PART of futbol. Plus, i am so in love with my team that he's gotta understand why sometimes i would have to choose them over him. I mean, my heart is only OH-SO big and there's about 30 of them (team mascot, chef, manager, assistant manager, some reserves team players included). I can only love oh-so many people at once. Not sure if i can include him. haha And vice versa, i'd understand why he chooses his team over me. Compromise, that's what its all about in a relationship isn't it? haha

BASIC MINIMAL REQUIREMENT:

• He's not going to be pissed that i check my phone every 30 seconds because of Twitter
  It would be even better if he had an account himself. But not mandatory
  

• Watches EPL. Of at least some sort of league. Preferably the English league
  This way we won't plan trips or events on days we know there's a game playing. Or he would NOT have ANY issues with me reserving my Saturday and/or Sunday mornings for futbol and understand why i gotta jet on a friday night because i gotta be up early for an early game. One more thing too is lets just say he follows the German league- their games are on at a different time than the English league. This way, this allows both of us to have our ALONE/DOWN time- it works out BEAUTIFULLLY for the both of us and enables us to lead separate (futbol) lives. (Since i deeply believe in still maintaining separate lives apart from each other).
  
  
• Mandatory: Cannot support Tottenham Spurs.
  I'll create exceptions for ManUtd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Citey. Preferably no.
  
  
• And of course nothing beats- being a Gooner.
  This way, we won't have any issues raising our kids (if he happens to be zee one) and making them decide at the age 3 which team they must support, mommy or daddys. (im serious).
  

And of course the usuals- tall, geeky, charming, funny, talkative, troll, smart, has a British accent (Ha. Maybe that's extra). You know, REAL superficial stuff like that.

Or if he wears this-

I'm sold too.

SO LET ME KNOW IF YOU KIDS KNOW ANYONE LIKE THIS! =D

......................

See what i mean. I am destined to be alone forever. Or knowing my luck, l'll find someone that fits all that but he's a giant big SPUD (aka. Tottenham supporter).

heart hurts

because my boys lost their first game in 17 matches.

Why i love Futbol (and Arsenal) - an Explaination.

Its no secret to anyone that i am a HUGE futbol fan. Its so huge i even call it futbol and not soccer. More specifically ive turned into a hardcore Arsenal fan. Of course anyone that has me on facebook and/or twitter, and also personally would already know that from my excessive tweets, angry/mocking status updates, my constant chatter regarding the subject and of course, the team jerseys i wear out on a regular basis proudly and shamelessly.

For the past couple of weeks i've actually been feeling extremely sad because my team hasn't been very doing well. I've told people this and EVERYONE (except for A) just looks at me with that uber crazy wtf i dont understand you look. Interestingly enough just hours ago i was in tears at the bar because i thought we won a very important game and now im upset beyond imaginable. People ask me why do i get so worked up and get so visibly upset? I'm going to try and explain that feeling in one shot and if u still dont get it..................yeah i can't do much about it. hahah

I started to follow the English Premier League (EPL) and Spanish League in September. A started too with the EPL but followed the French League instead. No brainer, she supports France, i support Spain. At the time i didn't know which team to "follow" so i actually watched all games played by the infamous top 5 teams in the league (i would name them but i don't think anybody gives a shit)(Actually l'll name em for shits and giggles: ManUtd, ManCitey, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea). I was EXTREMELY busy for a couple of weekends (watching game after game) trying to figure out who i want to be "my team". Somehow outta all the teams that i watched, Arsenal was the ONLY one that did not bore me to death and was the only one i was able to watch the game in its entirety from when it started right up to the 90th minute. So it wasn't like a bandwagon thing where i jumped onto the one with the most wins, the most popular and has the hottest guys. On contrary if that was the case, i SHOULD be following Manchester United (like the rest of the Chinese population.) aka the infamous team Beckham was on for 10 years  (Yuck, the thought makes me cringe.) But i don't. In fact i actually hate them. So in a way Arsenal chose me.

And if you even START, even DARE TO start on the reason why i started to follow Arsenal is because the guys are good looking - i seriously will cut your face for insulting me like that. Call me a fan girl, i will triple slash that face. And if you are a good friend, the value and effort that i will be putting into your wedding gift will be influenced (hint: HEAVILY deducted). But i mean if you are a realllllll good friend, you would never say that to me so there's nothing to worry about (aka ur wedding gift is safe haha) ! = ]

So now, i am physically and emotionally attached to Arsenal. Every day i wake up and the first thing i do is check twitter to see if any of the boys from my team tweets, then i check for news. Their wins and losses directly affects me and i swear to god those tears are real and so are those threats if you dare cross me when i am angry. It has become so personal that if you attack the team, its like you are attacking me. There has been many instances where i would get into heated conversations with people i hardly know- just because they started to talk shit about arsenal. I've even begun to judge people depending on what team they support.

I really can't explain that devotion except that its REALLY like, being married to someone. Its SO sad, SO weird and SO hard to comprehend but really think of it that way. You decide to devote your life to that person and in good or bad times, you will stick by them no matter what. Chin up at all times. They make you happy, they make you sad. You love their flaws and their entirety. That's exactly how i feel about my team. It has now become like a pledge and vow i made to the team, to be supportive and faithful til i die.

Sounds kinda like a cult eh. bahaha

As of now its Arsenal > Boys. I have no time for boys. I will probably remain single for the rest of my life because of this.

So after reading this people, please still be my friend. lollllllllllllllll.

Peace out kids. im going to sulk for the rest of the day.

womp womp

My team lost in a final today. My boys fell.
As stupid and ridiculous as many, MANY, of you may think i am- it hurt to the core. i even teared up at the bar.
Ask me how sad i am and i will give u an epic description.

No mood. Outs.

Brief Update

Just to let you people know that i am honestly okay-

my mood improved dramatically since i learned one of my futbol player crushes just joined twitter.

amazing how much power these men has over me.

Second Home

This is our second home whenever a huge match is on. Loves it here. I think the owner loves us too : )
My life is pretty much on hold for about 2 hours whenever a huge futbol match is on (like today). And what's really sad is i am STARTING to not mind the taste of beer..........yuck. i know.

Anyways dont have much to say. The other night was le cousin's anniversaire à le karoke avec all you can drink and we rightfully got plastered. I'm waiting for her pictures so i can jack them and load them on my fb lol I hope she enjoyed her birthday this year!! i really tried my best to make it really awesome!

Up next is K's 25th!!! Going to be so so much fun!!!

oh. btw people. Im going to Miami next week. (80% confirmed).

Thought l'll share.

Our Adventure to find the perfect Futbol Bar

As everyone know (from my status updates, tweets and share-age of excitement) yesterday was my International Friendlys Day for FIFA and as most people would have noticed, i was MISSING IN ACTION for pretty much the entire day (i'm sorry!). A and I really thought our day was going to be "smooth" because we've been planning for this day for a while now. She took the day off of work (hardcore) and the plan was to spend our entire day at Philthy McNasty's with the England vs. France game until it was time for MWDC.

Nopes. Did not happen.

• The day started quite pleasant with Flapjacks as a light Brunch over the Brazil and Argentina game (which Argentina won and i was extremely happy about only because of Messi). 
• We head out for Philthy McNasty, parked for a total of.....9 minutes?!?! Paid 12 dollars for 9 minutes. Why?
• Because freaking Philthy McNasty did NOT have the channels playing our game
• We stood there as the manager (i guess) was flipping through the channels and appears to be flabbergasted with himself on WHY he did not have the channels (or "packages" as he referred to them as) to watch the International Friendlys.
• UGH. BUDDY. DO NOT PROMISE/OR SAY YOU HAVE IT IF YOU ARE BASING IT PURELY BASED ON THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE 30+ SPORTS RELATED CHANNEL. 
• We left...IMMEDIATELY because it was 5 minutes into the game and we concluded over BBM that the situation was hopeless and we MUST leave to find a place that's playing it. 
•  We ran up and down Yonge (i believe....or could have been eglington. Doesn't matter. We RAN) going into multiple pubs and bars asking if they could play the game for us. 
• NO LUCK.
• Life was completely hopeless. A mustve been so devastated. We got into the car and was ready to zoom back to her place to stream the game when i noticed a couple more places and i suggested that we REALLLLLY should try to see if they were because i really didn't want to be at home watching these games (doesn't feel the same). 
• I go into a couple more places when one of the bartenders suggested i go across the street to this place call "Main Event" and more than likely they ARE playing it?
• Indeed they were. 
• God loves us.
• We parked AGAIN. This time paid 2 dollars for about 17 minutes. Why again?
• We were SO ecstatic about finding a place that was playing a game that we RAN to the pub (The Main Event) in time to watch France score one on England. 
• Obvs, A went crazy cheering for France (her team).
• While it was a good goal that i happily cheered for too, this man at the bar tapped me on my shoulder and pretty much said, "Tell your friend there to" [ insert hand slit to throat gesture ]. It was pretty loud at the pub and i replied, "excuse me? i dont understand.". He answers, "THIS IS AN ENGLISH PUB. TELL YOUR FRIEND TO *insert hand slit gesture again* OR SHES GOING TO *insert hand slit gesture*.
• Erm. I totally tried to calm A down and whispered to her that we were in an ENGLISH pub and that man pretty much is going to kill you if you don't contain your excitement.
• For the next 14 minutes of the game (there was about that much time left before half-time) while A watched it, i was busy calling MORE pubs to watch the games elsewhere because i know for a fact they were not going to switch over to the Spain vs. Portugal game and i feared for A's life. lol 
• I called the Football Factory (our usual pub) and indeed they were playing it AND they were willing to reserve a booth for me to watch my Spain game in private. 
• UGH UGH. CANT BELIEVE WE DID NOT GO IN THE BEGINNING.
• i told the girl that we were at another bar and we are going to fly over during half time like real devoted fans.
• Oh and don't forget the fact that we paid 10 dollars cover (EACH) and downed a pitcher of beer in 14minutes as well. And left RIGHT at half-time. So not worth it.
•  We head over to the Football Factory in record time in time....while tipsy.
• Quick back story on why we didn't go to the Footback factory in the FIRST PLACE.
  So we called ahead of time to discover that they were charging a ten dollar cover. Don't know why we did not want to pay that "ridiculous" cover and decided we can find somewhere else that won't charge cover.
• Clearly we were wrong. We now know better to never hesitate in needing to pay cover for a GUARANTEED, non-hostile, no-death-threat, fun, exciting time.
• Our lesson costed EACH of us about 70 ish dollars. When it really could have just costed 40....in TOTAL.  
• We had a BLAST there. We even met a French guy! haha 
• I was actually a tad bit disappointed because they actually were not able to show me the Spain vs. Portugal game. I was the only fan there in my jersey and was really sad!!! 
• The owner felt terrible that he couldnt carry out his promise of showing the game. And so to compensate for that he gave us poutine and yagerbombs on the house. 
• He really didn't have to. I am still returning either way lol
• But its still pretty awesome that we got freebies.
• I stayed true to my words and took three tequlia shots to mourn Spain's brutal defeat by portugal. 
• Sighs. : (
• Then off we went for Pho....slightly tipsy and then back to A's place to wait for the kids to go for more drinking.

Pretty adventurous!!! If i would say so myself.

I missed the game completely and i am so upset about the loss. UGH i need to download the game to see what went wrong1!! i feel completely defenseless because i didn't watch the game and  i dont know how to retaliate if i stumble upon a Portugal fan and they happen to be smug about it. i am seriously upset and screw you all for making fun of me. lol

That said- Football Factory, we will never, EVER turn our backs on you AGAINNNNNNN.

Okay this is for all you people who don't understand why i love soccer

Football is more than a sport, it's a way of life. It's seeing your teams play & cursing when the ref gives a yellow. It's crying when your teams lose and even more when they win. It's praying that the player who got injured heals quickly and without complications. It's the pride you feel, when you say their name, or wear that jersey. It's sticking with your team no matter if they win or lose because they will always be champions to you.

&&

Swearing obscene things at the bar. cussing out random strangers for talking shit about your team and making new bffs for liking the same teams?!

- added on by A.

Its the same for all you people who support the raps/leafs/jays!!!!!

Futbol Jerseys....a Rant

I think all my friends (aside from A) would frown and disagree with the fact that i am willing to spend hundreds of dollars on Soccer Jerseys. It has somehow evolved into an obsession now. One part is not only because i have clearly (whole-heartedly) indulge myself into the wonderful sexy world of Futbol and i want to show/express my support materialistically but the other part is because they're so expensive and i can't afford them therefore, i must have them.

I am so crazy right?

Before i was extremely skeptical about acquiring any other team's jersey (aside from Spain's) because I was afraid i would be subjected to interrogation by a fan who recognizes the club crest and at the time i did not know much about the team aside from naming the men whom i want to become my kid's daddy. Now i feel confident enough to wear them and thus even bigger reason to buy, wear and show off that i am more than just a fan-girl!!!!

Not to mention that jerseys are so unbelievably comfortable. God they feel so nice on the skin after the gym. I think its the material. Its truly like sex stitched into a shirt rubbing against your skin.

Okay maybe im exaggerating a LILLOOOO bit. haha but i really do go ape shit over them (even though i only have one).

Anyways this all started since this morning when the first thing i did when i woke up was to check the debut of the new Spain team's jersey for 2011. Sexy jerseys. I can't wait to not only own one, but to watch the boys wear em while destroying Portugal on Wednesday.

In all seriousness though, there's about four (Arsenal Fabregas, Liverpool Torres, Spain Away Torres, Barcelona Messi) i want and they cost around 70 bucks a piece. Lets NOT do the math shall we? lol

SIGHS. What have become of me.

International Friendly 2010 Fixtures

Next Wednesday is going to be football Wednesday for A and i (if anybody wants to join!!!!) and it is going to be absolutely spectacular because all our national teams are playing their friendlies that day. Catch? They're playing almost all at the same time....some AGAINST EACH OTHER.

Now in the futbol world, that just causes chaos and overdrives our ovaries because its sexiness and dorkiness all at once for a good couple of hours (i believe 6?).

I pray to god we survive to see the kids that night.

Anyways just a rundown of the schedule of games (that i am either going to watch or care enough to watch the highlights and results) as reference for myself and anybody that cares, here is the following-

Nov 17 06:35 ET China v Latvia [ I want to see how China plays....and possibly be ashamed ]
Nov 17 07:00 ET Hong Kong v Paraguay [ Same goes ]
Nov 17 12:00 ET Argentina v Brazil
Nov 17 14:30 ET Netherlands v Turkey [Because of prince charming]

Nov 17 14:30 ET South Africa v United States
Nov 17 14:30 ET Sweden v Germany [Because Germany is that good.]

Nov 17 15:00 ET England v France
Nov 17 16:00 ET Portugal v Spain

The bolded is obvs the games i will be watching. Bolded and underline is the one i will disregard all to watch lol

Yep. Definitely going to have a GOOOOOOD DAY. I am tres excited.

The Next 3 days...futbol schedule

Reminder to self:

Night Before: Get Crunk Open Bar @ UTSC Party
Friday- Arsenal vs  West Ham United 145pm (maybe)
Chances of getting up: Extremely Slim. It's open bar.
Okay i fudged and got my dates wrong. There's no game but the drinking is still on.

Night Before: Potential V-Party. Either way i'll be dt kids.
Saturday-  Arsenal vs. West Ham 10am [ A has permanently converted me into a Gunners fan girl ], Real Madrid vs Hércules 2pm, Barcelona vs. Sevilla 4pm
Chances of getting up: I actually think i will be okay. It will be one of those "drink for the buzz" nights.

Night Before:Rockwood
Sunday- Liverpool vs  Bolton Wanderers Either 12pm
Chances of getting up: Even more slim than Thursday night

The hours are so off because all the sites keeps on giving different times and the conversion is always SO off and it makes me SO angry because i can't plan cuz im either off one hour or off four.

FAK.

But Good luck Kay for waking up for all of these.

Paul the Octopus

If you guys havn't already heard but Paul the Octopus (read up on who he is here) died of natural causes last night (or something like that).

As you may all know that i am VERY fond of Paul because he predicted all of Spain's game (to be won by them) and as trivial as the matter is (me believing in an octopus) and delusional (in believing that its a PSYCHIC) as i am- i dont care. lol That said, i made a vow after Spain winning the World Cup that i will not eat Octopus or any Squid-like creature for the next four years (until WC2014) as a way to honor his awesomeness and thank him. Those who has ate with me would know that ive not had calamari, or cuttleball (squidballs) for hot pot, or squid for dimsum, etc. since i've made my vow.

I think i am going to continue on with that vow. Even though he's dead. Ya know, outta respect?

In addition to that, i'm going to mourn his death because i am a true Spain supporter. I am planning on wear black out tonight commemorate him.

No judging people.

Just a side conspiracy theory i have but i'm convinced that he was actually MURDERED and its someone from either the German team or the dutch team that is the culprit. (Seeing how he was originally from Germany and totally betrayed the Germans). I'm more convinced that its probably DE JONG the dutch manic- the one that likes to break people's ribs (refer to below image) and legs that committed the deed. I guess you can add ANIMAL HERO KILLER to his list of accomplishments too.

WHO DOES THAT. ARGH. Hate hate him.

................

No hating people. No hating or judging.

fffound- futbol rant

This is just for you annnbug....and any futbol pervs that googled "Iker Casillas" & "sex-ible"

Why Iker Casillas is Hot

1. Hot damn! Look at this GQMF. just look at him! There’s not even a need for a description but I’m going to write one anyway! His name is Iker Casillas Fernandez! No, it’s not pronounced Eyeker Casillas. It’s more like Eeker Casillas and he’s from motherfucking Spain. Do I have your attention now?
   
2. This BAMF is the captain of the Spanish National soccer team and co-captain of Real Madrid FC. That’s right; he commands ten other motherfuckers on the pitch. Not to mention he has badass goalkeeping skills that make you wet your panties. And you know he’s flexible as hell. That’s why they call him Saint Iker in Spain. That’s right; he’s the patron saint of sexy.
   
3. That profile! Don’t even get me started on that motherfucking profile. Go ahead and find someone with a better profile. One word: failure. (LOL) Take in the chiseled face! look at the fine ass chin! Most importantly, DAT ASS! Can you believe he can work a fucking beard too? It makes you want to sexup in a fucking jungle or a cave or something. (<-HAHAH)
   
4. He can’t speak English much (LOL) but who cares when he can whisper sweet fucking nothings to your ear in Spanish! Are you naked now? Not even his teammates can get enough of this sexy bitch. Never! And you know you’re sexy as hell when David Beckham wants a piece of your fine ass. Their bromance was the best bromance of all time!
   
5. Oh, did he just eyefuck you? Don’t you dare lie, bitch! And did you think he’s only badass? This bitch is sweet as fuck. Just look at his smile. Not only is he an athlete, he does charities too. You got that right! He goes around the world to help needy kids. Did I just say kids? He loves kids and kids love (HAHAH) So here are some pictures of him with kids. Yeah I know my panties are soaked too.
6. Remember, Iker Casillas is a god. Gods are used to getting what they want, when they want it. If you’re going to be with Casillas, you better be prepared to deliver, because if he wants to fuck you in the street while the paparrazzi creeps and films you; you better fuck him in the street while the paparrazzi creeps and films you. (this killed me.)

Okay now this is the real treat for you Annbug. hahah (im actually unsure whether you've read this or not since i swear you have probably gone through every single article written about this god) but im going to post this as entertainment for me too.

Why Yoann Gourcuff is Hot

1. Jesus Mother fucker! Before you ask yourself, “WHO is this fine specimen of manhood and where can I fuck him?”, let me introduce him. This is Yoann Gourcuff. If you are admiring his name’s foreign, “Where is he from?” quality, it’s because he IS deliciously foreign, bitch. He’s French (i.e. endless amounts of French sweet nothings all up in your ear!). And he plays for France’s national football team.
2. Now that you are acquainted, let me reveal more. This French pastry seems to struggle with keeping his clothes on. Common sense is what this piece of ass has. If you have a body like this, it would be a total douche-fucker move to hide it from the world. (LOLOL) And it’s perfectly fine that you just jizzed in your pants so hard you need to clean your floor. This, this, and this will cause that. Excuse me while I look for my Swiffer.
3. This man has style, both fully clothed and partially nude. He likes to keep things classy, with a bad boy edge, which is an automatic turn on. Partial to outrageously beautiful leather jackets, classic white tees, and all black get ups, a person will not only lust after his wardrobe, but also his nether regions. Just imagine dressing his nether regions with parts of your own body. And you know your parts will fit his parts like a glove. YOWZAH! (HAHA)
4. His eyes. Those ojos, oh wait, wrong language. Well, you know this fine piece of ass will make you speak all sorts of languages… in bed. Those orgasm inducing green eyes pierce into your soul all while undressing you and fucking you within an inch of your life. Talk about skill.
5. The face the Greek Gods hand chiseled. The flawlessly defined chin and jawline. That beautiful smile, thick, black hair, defined nose, and perfect eyebrows (they forgot eyelashes) are enough to leave a person speechless. All I can say is you’re welcome… and I’m going to go and have some ‘personal’ me time. Au revoir.

Please allow me to recover from just pissing my pants laughing for five minutes non-stop alone in my room like a crazy perverted cat lady in heat and needs a mating partner ahahahha
