The Tale of the Telebubbies

Unless I grip the sword,
I cannot Protect you.
While gripping the sword,
I cannot embrace you.

I beat the thing yesterday. I had it under control and it benefited me alot. Maybe I've finally won? No. It still lingers deep down inside of me. Ready to burst out. Ready to pull me down.

Argh. My body is in shambles. I can barely move. My head hurts like crazy. I can't think straight, neither can I try to think straight. I've been laying down for the past 15 hours. Just waiting to heal.

3rd place. That's how the telebubbies finished. One of the best teams of the tournament as decided by a few. I won't linger in defeat. So I'll say this only one time. I'm sorry I didn't score when it counted. After a 2 hour long break before the semi final, most of us got lethargic, playing badly against a team just 30mins fresh out of their last game. It had to be settled on penalties. We were cheated I'd say. Aren't there supposed to be 5 kicks? No there we only 3. and we lost because of that. Gah. Since I was the third kicker, I didn't even get the chance.

But don't fret, we played very well. Perfect record in the group stage with 12/12 points taken. Frustrations were taken out during the 3rd/4th place match.

Thanks to Joga Bonito for providing the most entertaining game in the competition. Against us no less. I ended with 5 goals in 5 games. Not bad I say. I don't believe in bullying "lesser" teams, just for a goal difference. Especially in a competition for fun like this.

Oh well. I'd best go back to recovering. Hope I'll get well soon

Sham
phew.
