Will I Survive July?

It's been an injury filled July so far for me. It seems that I can't seem to keep myself from getting injured one way or another.

First I hurt my back while playing football. Facing my goal and with an opponent behind me I attempted to clear the ball by juggling it a few times and clearing it with an overheard kick.With the ground being hard and dry as it was a hot day, I failed to cushion my fall and landed on my lower back. It's still giving me problems. Substitute pls.

Next would be how I hurt my knee. I was hanging out at my friends place till late one night and when the time came for me to leave, we chilled at his main door for a bit. Now he has this wooden bench just outside his main door which I failed to notice as the porch lights were not on. So there I was chatting with him for a bit before leaving and as I turned to walk towards the gate I rammed my knee into the bench. It's quite ok now.

So now you' d think I'd be in pretty bad shape with a bad back and a slightly busted knee and that I'd take things easy. That's what I thought. So I just went to watch a few friends play futsal. Having no football gear or anything with me you'd think I'd just sit back and enjoy the show. But no... I had to get talked into playing futsal.

Thinking as this was mixed teams as a few girls were there I figured why not? I'll prob just walk and pass the ball. No running, no fancy skills and no shooting. Should be alright. How wrong was I. I played barefoot as I was wearing slippers before. One time I was in possession of the ball and slowly walking to the side of the court to give myself more space and options who to pass to, Mary decided to run across me and try to win the ball. Instead she missed and trotted on my foot (insert *Crunch! sound effect here). That was pretty much the end of futsal for me. Apparently she and a few others heard the crunching sound and she felt really bad after. Fortunately it's just some swelling and no bones broken.

And So...

So we have finally concluded what has been a very average world cup and imo, the referee's provided more entertainment with their comic refereeing. But hats off to Italy. Best team overall by far.

So perhaps I've neglected this blog yet again. I shall now try to recall some rather silly stuff / conversations what took place while I went missing.


On our way to Poppy Garden one night...

Kanch - OMG is that a naked man over there under the flyover?

Tim - WHA...?

Louis - OH TIM WHY'D YOU LOOK?? THE CATS OUT OF THE BAG NOW! CALLING ME GAY ALWAYS AND LOOK AT YOUR REACTION WHEN KANCH MENTIONED THERE WAS A NAKED GUY THERE.

Tim - Pffft pls. It's quite a startling statement for anyone to say. Not everyday someone spots a naked guy in the open.

Louis - NO NO NO!!! IT OUT IN THE OPEN NOW! YOU LIKE MEN!!

Kanch - If that were true Louis why are you so happy and excited about it?

Louis - . . . . . . . .

Tim - Ha ha ha.


And another time not too long ago via SMS...


Lyn - Starbucks at 5 Tim. ***** asked me so it'd be great if you could come too ;)

Tim - Nah... I'll just mind my own business and let the 2 of you catch up on things :D

Lyn - You know I'll never forgive you.

Tim - Did you say Starbucks at 5?


That's about all I can remember for now... more to come I guess.

Ah yes. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAIN!!! Prepare yourself for Saturday!!! MUAHAHAHA!!!
