... Damn

Even though I shouldn't be doing this, seeing as to how I should be studying... I just had to post this or else I'll break in a river of tears. I had the most stressing day at Tributary Law. The teacher interviewed us in our workshop and no one, I tell you, no one seemed to have produced a good enough answer. She demanded knowledge that only knowing the law like the back of your hand after years of experience gives you! It was awful! And then she started into another theme and I asked a couple of things but can't honestly say that I cleared my doubts. Mmmmm, no; I didn't.

Right after that I hoped into a cab wanting to get home as soon as possible to watch the match between Japan and Australia (need I say that I cheered for Japan?) and I heard in the radio that Nakamura had scored and than Japan was winning! I was overjoyed! I got home and turned the TV on and well... All of my excitement and happiness went down the drain in about eight minutes when Australia scored 3 goals and thus Japan lost 1-3.

Japan's goal-keeper was exceptional until the last minutes of the second-half time. I noticed how the players (Japan's) looked exceptionally tired in the second-half time but still managed to defend really good. However, it was painfully obvious how the complete team seemed to rely on its goal-keeper and when he made this one mistake, which resulted in a point for Australia, the whole thing went down, the team got discouraged and down-spirited and two more mistakes of a thus-far samurai of a player brought the defeat of the nation of the rising sun.

Things aren't looking up for Japan right now given that they're in the same group as Croatia and Brasil/Brazil (let's not forget them, please). The only way I can think of for them to pass to the other round is with Australia losing the other games with many points agaisnt (goals agaisnt them) and Japan winning all of the games with lots of positive points so it would rest importance to the -2 points it has now (they scored 1 and received 3) and all of this is highly unlikely.

Still... NIHON, FIGHTO! GANBATTE, GANBATTE, GANBATTE!
