January 29th, 2007Me, watching soccer?
I’m going to sleep in a few minutes or rather I’m going to try to sleep. I’m on hols right now and my irregular sleeping habit is back.
I’ve just watched the Arsenal v/s Bolton match,the whole thing, the whole 90 minutes plus the 4 minutes extra time (well ..actually, it was 4 mins and 20 something seconds).
That’s my first time watching a soccer match all alone! Me, a non-soccer fan watching soccer all alone? What was I thinking? ![]()
I usually only watch soccer when my bf is watching. He’s not even in Shanghai right now. He’s an Arsenal fan and always watches them play even if it’s very late here in Shanghai. When Arsenal scores, I get a big hug or a kiss. I love seeing him look so happy, so excited. On the other hand, if the other team scores, I have to be careful so as to avoid getting accidentally elbowed or something similar if I am too near him.
I hate to think that I might have been converted even if it’s a little bit so I’ll just consider today as an ‘exception’. I must have been really bored.
-edited to add-
I’ve just realized that sports websites are very quick to update. Only a few minutes after the match ended, I saw an article about the match along with a photo.

hi i’m laure marday i used 2 live in beaubassin in mauritius.but my family still...
See, you worried too much.


wow!
a girl that watches football matches!
that’s interesting
keep it up!!
i’m not a fan of basketball, and i found myself watching a game too. not by myself though…but i was watching it. creeps me out.
And it was a draw
I suffer from the time difference too, not easy to stay awake to watch these matches so late into the night. So you got the TV you were looking for?
I agree with Lash…You should keep it up specially when Arsenal is playing
Websites updating articles are already called OUTDATED. Avid fans follow several games at once through realtime live results websites.
I only watch football for world cups!Hahaha
Hmm..that’s nice!Receiving a kiss or hug when yr man’s team scores
But then better make yrself very small when it’s the opposite,uh?:P
The world cup matches are exciting sometimes. But usually, I don’t watch at all. Don’t really like watching sports too much…
thats good right … if u know more abt soccer, i think ur bf will be impressed
getting elbowed?
mane, wat happens if they lost? does he go on a murderous spree?
haha we’ll see about that.
yes i got the TV I was looking for but after the day of the match. lol.
I watched that match online thanks to ppmate.
Well, he is usually able to control himself quite well.The worst that ever happened was that I got hit in the head accidentally. I’m not even sure how he did that.
He wasn’t even looking in my direction. He just moved his arms and somehow hit my head …and OUCH.
you should wear body armor next time!
My boyfriend is in love with Arsenal and I usually watch the games with him also. I love soccer but I never really keep up with the schedule or know when a game is on. When Arsenal scores, he doesn’t kiss or hug so much as he jumps but and scares the shit out of me with the loudest hoot and hollar I have ever heard in my life. I try to knit while I watch soccer games and nearly stab myself when Arsenal scores because I practically stab myself…
I don’t know why I said stab twice…I guess I really wanted to emphasizing the whole STABBING WITH A KNITTING NEEDLE thing.
