give me reason, take me higher
See the champions, take the field now,
you define us, make us feel proud
In the streets are, exaliftin ,
as we lose our inhabition,
Celebration its around us,
every nation, all around us
We all say,
When I get older I will be stronger
They’ll call me freedom
Just like a wavin’ flag
- Wavin' Flag, K'Naan for FIFA

That's right.
The fact that unforeseeable circumstances can whirl things around is scary and downright annoying, really. It's really late (or early) right now. Everybody's pretty much asleep in this room, except for me. I didn't bring my diary along with me, so this is the platform I chose (what other "platform" do I have anyway?)
My stomach is a little funny. Probably because of the chocolate milk and junk food. A mix of Twisties.. Pringles.. Chachos.. ice-cream.. chapati.. not good.
Just finished watching the match between Germany and Uruguay. I thought the match was interesting. I saw interesting skills today and one of the Uruguayan players even did a somersault-like kick. What a show off! But then, isn't the 3rd place match a place where there is no pressure? Muller, Jansen and Khedira scored :)
Right before the match, I Googled the latest news on Germany... and a huge rock fell upon me. Klose had a back injury and will not be playing. Podolski, Lahm and Neuer has flu and will not be playing as well. Even their coach, Joachim is sick. Someone must have thrown a bag of virus at them.
Apologies for being this bitter. It's just that, I was hoping for a nicer finale with ALL of the key players in the game. When you take out all of the key players, it's just not that fun anymore. They thrive on teamwork and they did have it... but key players gone equals... I don't know. I support them nonetheless (of course!) but the OOMPH isn't there.
A third place match is actually kind of sad. The fact that the chance of winning the WC is gone for them and now they have to fight for the consolation prize. I think that is why most people don't care about the match, but I think it gives us Germany and Uruguay fans a chance to watch them for the last time (until 4 years later).
Klose was not in the game! That's a HUGE deal for him (and me!). Although he said he doesn't care for beating Ronaldo's record, it MUST have been on his mind. Being the all-time top scorer in WC. That's a huge feat, isn't it? One goal from this match and he would've drawn with Ronaldo. Two goals, and he would've surpassed it. How sad. He was so close.

He looked disappointed, actually, sitting on the substitute bench. Reportedly he wanted to play but he didn't wanna risk it for the team when he's only 80% fit.
I think my friends think I'm crazy. Can't help it! Logaa said, "It's just a game". No offense, but he doesn't know what he's talking about in my part.
Looking forward to Bundesliga, I hope Astro covers it. I'm pretty sure they cover all of Bayern Munich's game because they are the best team. I hope Klose gets enough playing time now that he's freshened his name for himself in the WC.

Joachim Loew has the flu as well. I'm love his scarf!
This is Sarah, Schweinsteiger's girlfriend. Isn't she so pretty? (jealousnya)
The final 2010 WC huddle for the German team.
Alright. Don't be mad, I'll stop posting football pictures.

All the boys were tired and depressed-looking, while us girls behaved like we had 12 hours of sleep. I have Chemistry to do and Math to revise! I would definitely be watching the Finals and the closing ceremony. Just a little something I took before I put the jersey into the washing machine. Boy, does it need some washing!

Yes, after bitching about it for several weeks, it's here!
Before I end this post, I'm gonna post a picture of Klose looking like this when he smacks his lips:
Let's enjoy the finals. Here's to an end of an obsessive WC on my side. There's an article in New Straits Times about "How To Handle World Cup Withdrawal Symptoms" and I think I need to read that.

So THIS was what you were doing when we were sleeping!
It must have been the weather and the rain over there in South Africa that made them all fell sick. =(
Schweinsteiger's girlfriend is so pretty!
Liza: I wrote half of it when everyone's busy sleeping. I'm productive! I'm jealous of her!
Oh, I forgot to say, I want to read about how to handle WC Withdrawal symptom too!
