Wimbledon Begins!


The Wimbledon Tennis Championship has started on the 26th of June and will carry on until the 9th of July. You can watch the matches on ART sports channel 3. Rafael Nadal has played two matches up to today and won both going into the 3rd round. He will next play against Andre Agassi and I wish him all the luck in the world :D In todays game he played against the American player Robert Kendrick and it was a fantastic game! Kendrick won the first two sets but Nadal quickly tipped the scales and won the next three sets winning the match. Both players have amazing skill and the game was either fast shot aces or long exciting rallies. The game was a cliff hanger as they were both relentless to give up so easily.
Congratulations Rafa...my dad hates you but I'm with you till the end ;D
VAMOS!

I watched "Walk the Line" the other day and I loved it! It tells the story of the life of an American icon..an idol when it comes to music! The role of Johnny Cash was played by the amazing actor Joaquin Pheonix and the female leading role of June Carter was played by Reese Witherspoon who won an oscar for playing this role. It wasn't just a story of a famous singers life..it was a story of a human being and thats why I loved it. The 60's were portrayed amazingly to the extent that I couln't believe this was shot in 2005. And the music was just AWESOME! Its sad they don't make music like that anymore.A great round of applause to the actors who sang the songs themselves, they did an amazing job!
Watch the movie and buy the soundtrack...you won't regret it!!!

Hard Luck Spain

I'd just like to say hard luck to the Spaniards for losing to the French. It was a great, fun, very exciting game full of surprises. Everyone thought the French weren't up to standard this World Cup but they managed to pull it off somehow. Oh well, congratulations to them and to all their fans (*AnGeL*) It was a nice game especially for Zidane who had the pleasure of scoring the final goal...
Is it going to be his last for his country...hmm...we're gonna have to wait and see! ;P~
Good luck to them playing against Brazil...I hope they lose };D

Here is something I wrote a while ago, nothing special really :P I'd really like to hear what you have to say about it though, hope you enjoy:

On her way out she saw them. They were sitting a few meters away, just chatting. He seemed relaxed with his feet crossed and his back against the chair. The girl appeared to be a little less confident. He glanced her way, they made eye contact, he felt a jolt in his stomach then turned back to his companion.
'Wow!' she thought. She never imagined him to be in a situation like that although he was just like the other boys. Her insides felt hollow, she wanted to talk to someone about what she had seen. 'Wait a minute,' she thought, 'Why is this happening? I have nothing to do with this. It's not like he belongs to me...I don't even like him!' She smiled to herself, her insides having returned to her body, and she got in her car and drove home.

Dreams

I've been having vivid dreams lately, dreams that seem so real that when I wake up I think "That couldn't have only been a dream..IT WAS REAL!"
I don't know why this happens exactly but I enjoy having them...it's so fun. These dreams are often about things that will never happen in real life so its wonderful to be able to experience them in almost life-like situations.
I've had ones where I'm hanging out with random famous people, and I've had a couple where I am shot by a bullet and it felt so real...I could feel the hot bullets in my body and the blood and everything!!!
Have any of you guys had these dreams? If you have, here's a question for you...After you wake up from such a dream are you happy that you had it or sad that it was only a dream???

Hi, I have been away for the past few days because I had an operation on Thursday. Everything happened so fast. First, a little pain, then, lots of pain and swelling. I couldn't sit, sleep, stand, walk or do anything without feeling pain. So I went to the doctor and he said that he needed to operate on me. I was like "WuH?!" I never had an operation or anything like that so it was a pretty slap on the face! :P But everything happened so quickly and it was soon over.
Yesterday I went for a check up and they changed the bandaging and the doctor was like, "Its healing pretty well, and you'll soon be ready for the next operation" Slap in the face number two! Which other operation?! I was in a state of shock, pain and depression for a while, but I'm OK now. I thank God that it's nothing serious, and I hope the next operation will run smoothly and quickly (..and with minimal pain.)
Ofcoarse all of this happening so suddenly is confusing me as to what to do with my summer coarse. Should I continue? Should I just take a few days off? Or should I withdraw from the whole thing? I dunno!!! :s Since I'll be having another operation, which means more check ups (and more pain) I think it's best to try and withdraw...What do you think I should do?

Yoohoo! Where are you?!

I think that we (people here in Kuwait) need to be much more well-rounded, culturally aware people. I hope we become that one day. I'm not saying that no ones like that...but most of us are not. We need more cultural events, exhibitions, theatre, music concerts, lectures, just CULTURE!
O and by the way tara fee...there is stuff like that but I often hear about it too late or after its finished (or never!!!) and I get so frustrated. Newspapers!! Magazines!! TV!! Internet!! Why aren't these media sources telling the society about these important events?? Do any of you guys feel the same way? If not where can I find a reliable source which informs me about such events?

Vamos Rafa!!!

Congratulations to the Spanish tennis sensation Rafael Nadal on winning the Roland Garros championship. He played against the Swiss player Roger Federer, the world champion today. It was an amazing game with ups and downs for both players and it ended with a tense tie breaker at the end of which Nadal won the game.

Ok...enough with the newspaper talk :P YAY! I'm so happy!!! :D Well done Rafa...VAMOS!!! Posted by Picasa
