Soccer my Religion

Is a spirit of such countries Argentina, Brazil and Poland shifting from Catholicism to Soccerism? It may be so, especially after last news on different abuses among the priests.


Every Wednesday evening we collect guys from Uni and play it. Last game was exceptionally spiritual. First of all one of our best player Andres is leaving to his home country and that was his last game with us. We may never see him again:




Second of all we experienced such team spirit like never before. Communion. We were challenged by a group of self-confident and smiling Spanish looking guys. It was a tough and exciting game and we won : ) The Spanish looking guys lost their good mood : )


Although the fact it all happend in Sydney there was not a one Australian guy playing with us. They seem to be too lazy and too girlie for such an intensive game like soccer. They enjoy more cricket - All what you do there is staying in the field and watching a flying ball. And it seems that the most important part of it are numerous tea brakes and chats with fellows.


Our team was formed by Argentinean, Brazilian, New Zealand, Hindu, and me Polish.

Glorious / Disgraceful Tuesday 19 June 2018

I simply have to diarize that Thrilling Tuesday (19 June 2018). That Tuesday didn't start anything special. Following one month or so of Christina's unflattering comments on my hairstyle I arranged a meeting with a hairdresser. Here we come - the roller coaster starts accelerating. The hairdresser turned out to be a rock/jazz band singer and I could not stop asking for more details. Is there anywhere a place on Earth, except for New Orleans, where singers recruit their fans by trimming their hair :) ? Anyway, here is one of the videos of  that rock & roll hairdresser Barbarella Blue (like all well-established Kardashian-like stars in USA Barbarella Blue has Instagram too):  A chatter with Barbarella made me come late to viewing World Cup game at the Botany Lab, Tulane University. Fan W. set up the projector and the live channel before I came. Few colleagues joined us in supporting Poland against Senegal. What a disgraceful game it was for Poland! One deflection off P...

Igatsus

= missing/craving. Today I won't write a lot because I am still ill and in addition I went through stressful and very long IELTS test. Let us listen together a guy who created a band in Estonia called Sun and this song used to accompany me almost everyday thanks to "SkyPlus" radio playing loudly in my ex-workplace in "Green Fairy" Greenhouse in Tartu: Refrain goes like this: Igatsus pole süüdi Do not blame craving Igatsus teeb head Craving does good Igatsus annab teada Craving lets you know Armastus meist inimesed teeb Love is what makes humans out of us I dont have to miss my Estonia anymore. I followed my Estonia to Australia : )
