Guest guest Posted June 18, 2002 Report Share Posted June 18, 2002 Well I have tried. I have resist the temptation but I cant anymore. Its too much. I just have to let it out once and for all. Am I a fan? No I am not, but like they say if you cant beat them join them. Join in the fun and the excitement. You see human drama, you see disappointment, joy, sadness, tears, endurance, team work, anger, pain etc. Hey! I am describing life here. This is what life is all about. You can t be spiritual all the time. Shaktism embrace life to the fullest !!! So take a break and join in the event of the year. Am I having a gala time? Yes and No. Yes! because I love seeing the boys [ age range between 21 – 46 ] jumping like little children, screaming ` goal ! goal ! ` even before the ball get into the goal post. And the amazing thing is that they all do it in unison. In real time, they can never agree on anything. And my three year old will always be a three years old. Now she associate football time as play time. No! because I have to do all the cooking and the cleaning up. Never expect them to help up at this time of day. They get transfix in front of the TV watching the replay over and over again, especially on the goals. This fascinate me. But I am learning. You want them to do the chores, ask them before the match and not after it. What am I talking about [ Devi Bhakta must be thinking : what is Nora up to this time ] I am talking about Soccer : The world cup. [ smiles ] I am too happy today. Why ? because Korea beat Italy [ the favourite ] 2-1 last night. I am still an Asian at heart. Korea fight till the end. Scored the equalizer at the 88th minute and thereafter the golden goal during the extended time. They never gave up the fight. Ah! there were screaming of joy and everybody is celebrating [ including the fanatics here in my place . ….. hey ! you supported Italy earlier …no I did not, you are the one who supported Italy…. No! you are the one …. Who cares .. Korea ! Korea ! Korea !] The last time Korea enters the quarter final was in 1966 in England. So this is it. They will stop for few days and start again on Saturday. I know my place here will be transform into a mini football stadium. The boys' college friends been calling saying they miss my home cook food. Geez ! these kids sure know how to make me happy. Discussion over at the dinner table : USA vs Germany [ 3 for Germany, 2 for USA ] + 1 for USA Korea Vs Spain [ 4 for Spain, 1 for Korea ] + 1 for Korea Turkey vs Senegal [ all for Senegal ] no comment Brazil vs England [ 2 for brazil, 3 for England ] + 1 for Brazil Post qualifying match discussion : 1. Overall : good game, because the favourites are gradually being kicked out. France the former champion out Flamboyant Mexicans : the Americans gave them a rude shock. Argentina : cant remember what happen to them Italy : just got their fair share. Cameroon : they too gone. Need to get their head together. 2. The team to watch. USA : not bad for a new comer. Lets see what the Germans have in store for them. China : it took them 44 yrs to get into this world cup. This time it will be another 4 yrs and they will make their presence felt. USA create football history, Korea did the unexpected, China will equal these. They will not rest in peace. The dragon is awake. That's it, I promise. No more football talk after this. I am at peace now? Yes! Yes !. Om ParaShaktiye Namaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
