Day 477 { Taking Football Too Serious/Wolverine }

The kids at my school today, gave me this sweet syrup and crushed ice thing which is a summer favourite in Japan. It's called something like kakigori....

Later on I went to football and I realise that my team has been taking this thing wayyy more serious than the foreigners. Maybe that's why they put us on the B-Team. For the first time, one of my teammates started to direct me on the field as to when to attack and when to do what.... I was saying to myself " What is wrong with this guy, we are only playing for fun". I guess they are taking it to another level. They even invited this very very good soccer player guy to come on our team. I think he scored about 7 goals on the opposing team. I scored either 1 or 2. Maybe they didn't count the second goal because apparently I fouled a guy on the other team that I was totally on aware of. After I scored that questionable goal, I saw the guy on the floor seemingly in pain, and about 5 other guys including some guys from my team, surrounding him and asking him if he is fine....

I was totally unaware of this, and the same guy who was directing me earlier, told me to cool down and play a little softer ???? All this has been getting on my nerves, but maybe I am too thin-skinned (easily angered) as one of my long-time ex-girlfriends told me.

Wolverine X-Men Origins

After football, I ended up watching Wolverine-X-Men Origins, which I initially thought was going to be absolutely terrible, which is why I waited so long to watch it. But to my surprise it wasn't as bad as I imagined.... It was bad, but not as bad as I expected. Some of the action scenes were pretty amazing.... However, some of the acting was terrible !!! The fight between Wolverine, Sabre tooth and that strange mutant creation thing was pretty entertaining to me.
