50th Post - Part #2
The term ‘Blogging’ has now found its way into the Oxford English Dictionary like many other modern words (i.e. OMG, LOL etc... I kid you not!), it has becomes a recognizable term that describes the activity of the people writing blog - sort of a popular culture nowadays in this modern world, like with Twitter, Tumblr and all the others. And this somehow not entirely, but replaces the culture of writing in a diary which was quite popular in the past.
At first, I had a hard time to think of what to put/write in for my blog. Then I found it's very time-consuming, but all in all it is a rewarding experience. As such I am sharing with you a great blog called ShootTokyo, by a photographer named Dave, who shots a ton of extraordinary street photos, often with really shallow depth of field. His work has appeared on international news sites including CNN and BBC - in summary, superb and well worth checking out.

While we are on the subject of Football, yesh~ I watched the game last night between England vs. Italy. The dust has settled and another ignominious big tournament quarter-final exit on penalties. The better team won really, England played the first ten to twenty minutes very well but after that Italy was dominating the match. I’ve been thinking, I like Football - alot of people like Football, Its rules are simple, and its requirements for equipment are minimal and can be played in almost every weather condition. It is a real game of the people (un-like Golf for example).
The odd thing is that football is watched on television by less-well-off people, who listen to the commentary and punditry of much wealthier people on games played by incredibly wealthy people. It is an odd state of affairs for a game of the people.
Well I Thank you for all your visits, which has encouraged me to continue postings my thoughts and opinions of things around me.
