Argh.... the world cup is over. Whatever will I do during the days now? The Italy vs France match was really exciting! That's the way I like it! Full of drama and action. It was just too bad that Zinadine Zidane had to retire from international football the way he did. Hubby has a sneaking suspicion that Zidane did what he did coz the Italian dude made some derogatory religious remarks. Isn't Zidane a m@slim? The most popular relig!0n to degrade isn't it? It's been a day after the game now but no one in either team will say what it was that Materazzi said that provoked Zidane so much. Bet it was racist. We'll see in a few days.
I talked about the cooking session me and a friend of mine had the other day. I must say the results were very good. The food was a hit at the worldcup viewing party we had a friend's place. Later after the end of the party we went to the beach to play volleyball. It was loads of fun even if I wasn't very good. Never learnt to play the game before. Hubby's been really patient with teaching me how to play all the sports I never played in school.
You know, learning all about these new sports has got me thinking about how un-athletic I was in school. I remember one of the earliest memories I have about being put in a race and I think I finished second out of five races but I really didn't feel very fast. Other kids at school seemed to run so fast and I think the reason I was so slow is because I was quite chubby in school. Hubby says that some people have talent but most people can be trained to run faster, jump higher and spike harder. I wonder if I could've been more athletic had the school I went to expose all schoolchildren to sports, and not just the obvious talented ones. Hopefully my kids will be given the chance to train and practice to become more athletic and not just cast aside due to height or weight.
