I’m on my way to finishing my last assignment of the semester.  I just really need to realax after this. There was so much pressure to the end that I am going to be burned out.  The thing, is I have been going all over the place, and my head is hurting, and I just want to spend some time relaxing sitting at home, spending some time with my cats and seeing my friends.  Do you know I have hot seen my flatmate for longer thant 2 minutes since for the last 3 weeks.  Even when my girlfriend had was gone for 5 days for a conference, I never saw Solomon once.  SIGH… I need to get out of this hole…  But it inot all done yet.  I still have a major Masters project which will be due August 1st.  But that I can complete.  I can spend tiime doing that, and looking over that, and re doing it and interviewing people  I am not scared of it.  But this semster was one of the most intense semesters I have ever had.  And I think ending it on a Media Law assignment on a topic I know nothing about and on a subject I actually never liked, was one of the worst way to end a semster.  But alas, it is over and I will party and chill for a week before I end.

Though I do not normally, like Arsenal or ever claim to enjoy watching them play football, cause I don’t like that team on man principals.  They were representing England in the Champions League Final in France and for that, I will put 100% behind them to win.  That is why I feel they were unjustly robbed of the title last night when they had to play 70 minutes of the match with one man down, because the referee sent of German #1 Jens Lehmann, because of a dubious tackle just outside the penalty box.

I do feel that it warranted a free kick or something, there was a really quick goal that followed the tackle and the referee should have just allowed the goal and played on.  However instead of that, at 19mins, the referee sent off Lehmann.  In other words, for the rest of the game, they would have to play with one less midfielder and their second string goalkeeper.

Now, again, if this were a league match, I would have cheered like mad.  But this is a London team who deserved to be in the Final.  They played hard, and they kept 11 clean sheets on their way to the final.  You don’t send off a player that early in the game.  Just give him the yellow.

That sending off was what eventually did them in.  But not before a bunch of other dubious calls by the referee which pisses both sides off.  Who probably was one of the worst referees in the history of Champions League Finals ever.

Though Arsenal took the lead first at the 37th, minute it was because of an apparent minimal contact fall by one of Arsenal’s players.  Instead Arsenal took the free kick and unbelievably, the 10 men were leading first, on a glorious Sol Campbell header.

Arsenal bravely kept on to that slim one goal lead for the next 55mins before, Samuel Eto’O and Juliano Belletti finished the game off in a span 4 mins.  It was a disappointing Final.

Sometimes in football you just need a bit of luck and this time, Barcelona got it all.  Almost every goal that happened was preceded by a bad call from the referee or linesman.  Only Belletti’s winning goal was a valid and legal goal.

Arsenal played their hearts out, and was the better team, even with 10 men.  Who know what would have happened with 11 men, and in Thierry not missing the sitters which he did miss a few BTW…

Sigh… another day another time, ANOTHER FUCKING REFEREE…

Unjust…

I apologise if I feel a little distant these few weeks.  Due to allthe work I will have ethat is due Friday, I will be un able to really see or talk to anyone other than a few of you online.

As susan so eloquently put it, this is”Hell Week”.  Yes ladies and gentlemen.  We are in hell.  And every assignment that we have due this week, decides our future.  So no more messups.

This is it.

Next week we can party and relax for a while. 
Before I have to attack my Masters Project, Due August 1st.

So again, if to you I have dissappeared for this these days or am ignoring you a bit… please understand… I’m doing this in hopes that I can continue with my life intact.

Whatever that means…

See you when the rainbow comes out!

I was in church today, and I realised something.  There was a Children’s choir by the name of WATOTO, from Africa and they did something that I didn’t imagine I would do: Cry in church.

Other than the time someone else made me cry cause they pissed me off during a service, I think I was moved to tears today.  These kids were orphaned as kids because of war or their parenst died of disease.  And I wathced them today,  Singing and dancing on the stage and it was amazing. 

It was inspirational.  It was a joy.  To see them, in such harsh environment and growing up in such an difficult way, they still were able to sing and dance and praise the lord the way they did.

Things like this just puts everything into perspective for you.  And I felt a certain kinship with the kids, since if you don’t know already.  I’m adopted.

I keep thinking that life is difficult sometimes, and though I have it easier than some, They stil seem to have more than I do.  Because they have the Joy of God inside them.  I looked into each of their eyes, and they glistened and they were tryly happy and excited to be dancing there.  It was inspirational.

I sat there, and did everything I could to not shed a tear in church.  But I was all ready for it.  Their testamony was just a testament to the joy and the graciousness of God.

I’ve learned to appreciate things so much more.  And now everything is so small compared HIM..

Thank You god for sharing this with me….
