ive decided:

that i won't actuate any spiteful plans i have concieved against my neighbour.

1) smash his car windows in
2) spray paint along the kerb and asphalt: NO PARKING ZONE, AUTHORISED BY THE RESIDENCY OF xxx ROBYN AVENUE.
3) spay paint on his porch: get out of our neighbourhood, asshats like you don't belong here
4) rev and toot the horn everymorning on the way to university


What i realised is that if i do follow thru with any spiteful actions it just makes me his equal, i should be more mature and demonstrate a greater level of intelligence.

Other than that life is not so bad, uni, exams, touchfooty, bills, food, accomodation, petrol, tolls: things taht have dominated my thinking time this week.

I played my first game in 3 weeks of monday night touch footy - it was bloody fantastic. Linda played as well, bringing hte number of girls to 5 to complement the 4 guys that turned up. Dennis + Jase + Dot are out for the season as den's car decided to die. Tone, Bob, Quek, Myself, Linda, Alex, Ellen, Jacq and Christine rocked up to play the two half games.

The first 5 mins of the first game, we played well with a few nice drives down the middle. However, as the high tempo was sustained by opponents, our defence crumbled, as did the momentum in our attack. We lost however i scored my first proper dive-try down the middle - sliding along the grass is an amazing feeling! Second game we won. I had a try denied although i believe it should have been allowed as i was grabbed outta the way for a good 4 seconds, when i did get the ball i thought i grounded it before the dude touched me again. My knees and feet pulled up quite well however alack of stretching before hand meant that my calves and thighs are rather sore.

Thursday. We played the third placed team with supplements from the 1st place team. We lost 2-1. First half had an awesome driving pattern going, this is prolly due to the fact taht harry and alf (league players) were not on the field as they generally avoid being touched on 1-4 touches. THe try came from yours truely, a brilliant double dummy combined with a quick step off the right foot resulted in the try of the game, im kidding btw :) End of first half the score was locked at 1 a piece. Second half i had a chance to put another one on. I wasn't too sure what was going on but i was middle field looking to the right for a pass but there were no runners. As i was doing so, i could see a gap emerging from 2 lazy defenders and i thought id give it a go. As i popped pass, i did feel the slightest tap on the foot but no call was made so i thought it'd be best to keep running and ground the ball. That done, the ref called the late touch and the play was brought back. Bummer! Ben and i had to go for assessments and consequently with no reserves we lost 2:1. If this week is anything to go by, i feel that im hitting abit of form, the footwork iscoming back however the speed still lacks. fun fun fun!!
