Black Friday Shopping

Posted in Soccer, Sports on November 30, 2008 by Matthew

Yup, only do I write about my black friday shopping two days later. Not to worry though, I didn’t spend much at all. In fact, I spent a little under $55 on 3 items for myself. A pair of brand new cleats. My old one, a cleat on my left cleat has fallen off. Why on earth are the shoes called cleats and the stubs on the bottom called cleats anyway? it’s so difficult to explain to people one of my cleat from my cleats fall off, some times people don’t get it at all.

So, I’m going to say what I bought again, because I started going into a tangent. A new pair of cleats, a new pair of shin guards, and a soccer ball. I had one, but it was one size smaller than the official size. Heh, I was thinking I might be spending about $70 bucks but getting all those for less than $55 is good. Only the ball was on sale, so I really didn’t have a “black friday shopping” like most people waking up at 3 or 4 in the morning.

Well, final is in two weeks, and my to-do things are piling up. You probably won’t hear from me for the next two weeks, and then I’ll be writing again… hopefully.

Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and if you do have finals coming up, best wishes to you all.

Focus

Posted in Random, Soccer on November 21, 2008 by Matthew

In the past non-posting days, I’ve taken those days off from blog because I’ve get myself stuck with other things that I rarely get to do when I’m off. During those days (honestly, just today morning), I’ve decided that I need a focus for this blog, because knowing me, there’s going to be a lot more blogs to come. This blog has been just random and everything about me, and I think I would like to keep it that way. The things I enjoy, things that excite me, my love, life, faith, and everything and anything about this world. So, though I’ve thought that I needed a focus, my focus seem to be making it more general. Once other blogs that I have will be more focused about other things, then those things won’t be written on this blog anymore. So, what is this blog about? Simple…

I Write about me and our world at our finest. The world isn’t just the Earth, but everyone and everything that I have thought about. This includes researched, seen, heard, smelt, read, watched, discussed, etc. So, why less update? Because I’ve been lazy, simple and short… thus the KISS method ^_^

Have a good weekend and if I don’t blog before next week, enjoy your Thanksgiving.

By the way, I “frew up” today. That’s a nicer way to say “throw up.” I am convinced more than ever, without a shadow of a doubt no matter what anyone says, that I am very out of shape. I went out there to play soccer, rand for 5 minutes, come back in wheezing and light headed. 5 whole minutes, that’s weak. I FAIL-ed! lol. I even tripped while I was out there, and lost balance because I was out of energy. Looks like it’s back to working out and running until I’m back in a decent physical shape.

Final Game

Posted in Soccer, Sports on February 15, 2008 by Matthew

Today I have to say has been a sad day. Well, just the evening during the soccer game. We lost; I think the score was 5 – 2. Our team wasn’t playing right. I don’t know, but today’s game somehow doesn’t seem to be our best game. If I could describe it, it could be one of the bottom 3 worst games we’ve played. Could it be the time? Too early? Since we usually play night time, 5 might have been too early? Or were we not ready at all? I don’t know, but I know that it’s over and I’ll have to wait until next year to play. In the meantime, I am considering exercising and working as the extra activities coming up. I just got emailed for a time to do an interview. I pray that it goes well and that if possible, I’m the only candidate up for grabs and that I’m the person they’re looking for.

On a happier note, I finally built my shelf and it’s up with some of my stuff. I’m going to be putting more things up, but at the moment, it’s there and I can smile with pride I built it… ok, with instructions. I’ll update with pictures down the road when I actually upload my images into my computer. Until then, Happy Birthday to me!!! Well, in a couple of days.

I wonder if my entries and the way I write reflects my age well. I would like to take a poll, but of course most of my readers (that I know of) already know me personally, so that would be pretty boring. If you don’t know me or my birth year, you’re welcome to take a stab at how old I’ll be in 2 days. ^_^ Cheerios!

The Game Continues

Posted in Soccer, Sports on February 13, 2008 by Matthew

I apologize for the late update. We won the game. Our next game is this Friday at 5PM. Supposedly the team that we are going to play beat the last team we beat by a large margin. We were already struggling at our previous game with the other team that we’re going to go out there just to play our best and have fun I suppose.

We were losing first half 3 – 1. Came back at second half 3 – 3. Won in OT with an amazing kick.

Looking forward to Friday’s game, and I’ll probably come back with some bad news.
