im depressed. so depressed. i know there will be other chances. i know that there is life outside football. but we were playing so well. i'd say we were the better team this morning. for those who have no idea what i'm on about, im talking about Australia v. Italy. im still aching. i know that sounds melodramatic but... *shrugs* its what football does to me. i was so devastated i cried. it just wasn't fair. we have had the worst luck with refs this world cup. i mean come on... Neill was on the ground. how does that warrent a penalty? it doesnt. if anything, Bresciano shouldve been fouled. its just so frustrating to get out of the world cup like this. i mean if italy were playing well, better than us, or if they had a more legitimate goal than ok, thats cool. i can appreciated good football. but when its an umpiring decision... if it wasnt for vce i wouldve spent my whole day licking my wounds.
other world cup news. ukraine is through (and playing italy next). i love ukraine. i love their star player, Shevchenko. he is hot stuff.
i never used to be a beckham fan, i never understood the hype. i had mistaken the hype to be about his lifestyle and looks (which had not impressed me). then i saw a documentary. i hope i never judge a person like i did beckham ever again. i was so so so very wrong. Becks is a fantastic player, and i just regret not truly appreciating that fact until recently. i saw this goal he kicked for ManU. He bloody kicked it from his own half. i don't think even PELE has done that before. and the free kick he took for England the other day? Brilliant. i bet the English are glad they didn't kick him off the team (they were going to you know?!)
Another reason for me being depressed that has nothing to do with football: I got an email from the Lumos waiting list which i had signed up to see if i could get mijan a place when she hadnt had one. i am VERY CLOSE to the top of the waiting list. knowing that just makes me long even more to go... damn vce.
After vce, im going to either Lumos or The Witching Hour.
And the next world cup, which i think is in South Africa.
And Broadway.
And Kings Cross Station on Sept 1st
I think i'll go now, to wallow in my grief.
