Updates

That was rather long celebration, but I promised to share the news as soon as i was done, so... USA WON!!!! 2-zip. yay!

Today, at 12, was the Canada vs. France game and for the first time in the tournament a team scored more then 2 goals. France won, 4-0 (WOW) and it may not sound like it but Canada put up a good match. A debatable maybe off-side goal, a great shot by the same person, a header by Thiney (i think..?!) and a great beat-the-goalie-one-on-one score to end it up.

I missed the game before that (there are two games a day, one at 9, one at 12...usually) because my couz and my aunt are going to India (BYE GUYS! <3) and ya... sorry!

But the game I did see, France vs. Canada, were played by teams in the A group. The other two teams in that group are Germany and Nigeria. Germany played Canada in the opening game and won, so Canada's only chance to go farther in the tournament is for Nigeria to beat Germany, which, at this point, seems unlikely.

So from group A i am expecting France and Germany to continue. USA is in group C and they beat N. Korea, so i am also expecting them to continue too! Plus their the #1 team in the world right now!

Other updates will come soon!

Oh ya, women's WORLD CUP!

Who? Usa Vs. North Korea. What? Game. When? NOW.

Watching the game and it's a great start! Updates on previous games are coming soon, but right now, Korea just got a foul...

So far, 0-0 and ... A great shot! It's a pretty awesome game and Korea's young players put up a good fight. Any other observations include: Abby Wombat got a HAIRCUT!!!! She looks different! But she still plays her game, thank God.

Go USA! I hope they win! I'll share the news as soon as I finish celebrating!

-------------- HALF TIME! ----------------------

It is half time, and the score remains zero zero! It's surprising because 10 people, TEN!, from N. Korea are teenagers!!!! ya, you heard me, not drinking age yet! And USA is the oldest team in this tournament. So oldest team vs. youngest team, plus USA title and #1 team in the world, and NO SCORE! Scary!!!!

Lots of shots and good defense, but the possession and shooting needs a little work. The defense is working well, and only slipped up a few times, and the offensive part is doing great but they need to range there shooting and not shoot at the keeper :) The main problem is the middle of the field is a little too congested and N. Korea likes it that way. It's harder to move the ball from the defense to the offence and the center mids aren't getting too many touches on the ball.

Hopefully the middle clears up and the full field can be USA dominated. Go USA!

Solar System

So few posts back I had my attempt at an example to explain the scale of the Earth to the Sun... an attempt. I do not consider my self as accomplished at that task. So now, in this GRANDER scale, I will probably fail even more grandly. I don't know if that was grammatically correct, but prepare to see another attempt at an example!

So... The Solar System! Big place! The Earth is a speck compared to Sun ladies and gentleman, so if you think your bad, your not! The Sun kills you in comparison! So say there's a basketball, aka the Sun. The basketball is placed on a football field. The speck, aka the Earth, is like, 60 yards away. 60! More then half way!

Now Jupiter, which is bigger and badder then the Earth, is a ping pong ball. Scary. And place that about THREE football fields away! Tres! So just IMAGINE that in your head. Small world we live in, eh? Understatement.

Because, Saturn, the Queen planet, ya, she's TWICE the distance of Jupiter. So when they say a place, far, far away, they mean Saturn. Or no, they could mean what's BEYOND Saturn too, but they could still mean Saturn.

And we all know... We all HOPEFULLY know the order of the planets. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and the debatable Pluto. Well, there's more to that in the Solar System. Yup. More!

There's the Kuiper Belt... or something like that, I'll look up the proper spelling later XD and it holds asteroids. And that's right outside the outer planets. Then outside that belt... eh, i'll continue later!

(As you can see, it is to be continued!)

Soccer

I am so tired, so I'm not going to make my brain concentrate (not the orange juice people, THAT JOKE IS OLD!) on more videos right now. So how about a break, and me telling you what I did today.

So i woke up around 7:30 and got ready to go to this really fun soccer camp. It's this new team that's starting up in the Premiere division (one level up from travel i guess?! for those of you who don't know what that means). And it's coached by high level coaches and even though it's really fun doesn't mean it's not educational. I went there on short notice, the camp was monday-thursday w/ optional foot skills friday and i started on Wednesday, haha. And even in these 2 days i learned quite a bit.

This camp was co-ed from ages below 8 to 14 year olds. We played together at times, and we also split up into our age groups. It was REALLY fun. We had a girls vs. boys scrimmage yesterday.. We KILLED them! <333

The team is called One United and just was organized. I think it'll be a great club for those who are interested. They still need some players who have some soccer experience. I'll probably play with them too!

Left Hand

Hey guys! As I told the world a couple of posts back, my life DOES consist of more then just Khan Videos :) so I'll tell you about my newest interest... Learning how to write with my left hand! I think it's really cool how some people can write with both hands, being ambidextrous, and thought "why can't I give it a shot?"

So the idea sparked when I was really sleepy and my right hand wouldn't co-operate. I sleepily picked up the pencil with my left hand instead and wrote a few things, and the hand writing didn't look half bad! By that I mean it didn't look like it came from a foreign language. It looked like it was a kindergartens scribble, but I could deal.

Then I really concentrated and started writing with my left slowly. Pressing harder helped because this way you could keep more control. Stupid left hand has a mind of it's own otherwise... Can't blame him, he's mad for not being used all these years.

So ya, I tried that and it worked! Looked sorta bloated thought, like it drank too much water and was expanding to the other lines like it couldn't handle being in that little space... I wonder if letters could be claustrophobic? Maybe that's why some letters always cross the line.

Anyways! Then I tried writing more and more sentences and the letters were cured! No more claustrophobia!

But the letters were deformed... I think I need to go to a letter hospital.

But for now, my wonderfully deformed letters will do! I'll keep practicing and by the end of the summer I'll be a pro B-) ... that's a lot to expect by the end of the summer. Learning so much from the Khan videos and learning how to write gorgeously with my left hand...

Oh well! I will do it! <3

Sab :) <3 XD!
