For the love of the game.

I was a bit disappointed when Ronaldinho was not able to make good use of his free kicks. Had he made the goal on all three, they would have won. But I could not blame him at all. Valencia had very good defense, with three teaming up against one at a time, while Barça seemed to be a bit lax on theirs. And to think I’d stay up late just to watch the game live at 2:00 a.m. Oh well, he just made his 16th goal in La Liga. Yayness.

I had become a recent fan of football and among all other players, I’ve come to like Ronaldinho most, and for that I chose Barça as “my” team. I also happen to like Zidane; a little too late though. I really wasn’t into football until my younger sister joined her school’s varsity team. By far, I can say that I am her biggest fan. She taught me how to understand and love the game—and now she’s even telling me, “Damo ka pa nabal-an sa akon ba!”

A sad truth.

Have you ever found yourself right smack in the middle of something you feel you can’t get out of? Have you ever felt sort of abandoned by someone, leaving you clueless, and at the same time, you wonder about the possibility that that someone may also feel abandoned by you? Have you ever reached a fork in the road where you know you need to choose what’s right, yet you don’t really know what is that right thing?

I don’t know if it’s just me or if it’s just normal… you know, how you feel about a certain person at some point in time… where you would recollect that person’s past mistakes and remind yourself of that person’s flaws… just so you can justify yourself for not liking that person at the moment… just so you have the enough reason to feel the way you feel… just so you can “have the right” to hold that grudge…

It’s pathetic, I know. It’s probably something a good lot is trying to figure out, and can’t get out of. Tell me if you do. =/
