Germany - 2006


Its here again! 2006....in Germany! FOOTBALL WORLDCUP!! I don't know why i am already getting so excited...well, its because the 2006 draw just got over... wow wow, the groups are out! They do look quite reasonable...though it is quite obvious which team is going to qualify from most of the groups... anywayz, there's many many months remaining for june 9th, 2006... so i don't think much can be done. And i hate chennai for bringing in this whole set top box scheme... damn damn! There were times in kenya when we'd all sit in one room (all the kids in the colony) and switch all the lights off....and have an adrenalin rush for 90mins...man, good old times...and we'd scream and shout...i remember that was the time the finals had France Vs Brazil... and i was supporting brazil that time... France won. Zidane's 2 goals and Petit's one... Well, that was the last time i ever supported Brazil... they're a great team... but i still cant like them! And the world cup before that, the finals had Italy Vs Brazil (1994)... and thats when i fell in love with Italy...mainly cuz of Roberto Baggio... That match ended in penalty shoot outs....and Baggio missed a goal for Italy...But he was always good...And even though they haven't been playing too well recently....my heart still goes out to them! Anyway... am sure those of you who're not too interested in soccer are definitely yawning..... More abt the draw here....

First of all, Basketball is my passion along with swimming.

All i know about football is what i used to play in school. i remember that my class girls, we used to have a football match every PT class starting from 8th standard! it was amazing fun...

and of course, me and divs play whenever we make it to the terrace...lots of fun...and kicking the ball off the terrace...hehe

:D

Kicking the ball out of the terrace! Yeah... it used to go fall on surya sweets' roof... thud! Am sure it used to scare off the people inside... poor them. On other occassions, it falls on the road! Thank heavens till now it hasn't falled on a moving car... they'd die of shock!
