Ups and downs
This post is called ups and downs, and that's exzactly what it is. Right now i'm in a down situation. I'm in a pretty bad mood right now because Usa isn't doing good vs. Ghana, but let me start my day from the beginning.
It all started this moring when i woke up and my left eye lid felt really heavy. I thought because i selpt on that eye too heavily. So i tried to look up and down and get my eyes adjusted but it still felt weird. So i went to brush my teeth and that's when i looked in the mirror. My right eye was normal, but my left eye was half closed and open. I got pretty worried, panicked, because i have a friend who has an eye like that and she had to get surgery, and the eye is still half closed all the time. I was wondering what i did to myself. Then i went to my mom, lucky for me she's an eye doctor. She said... it was a disease, i was horrified, she said i have to get surgery. This was the first down part.
I'm just kidding! She said it was harmless and it was just a bug bite on my eye lid. She put some medicine and said it'd be gone by evening. That's the first up part. But the down part is that it still feels really weird.
But here comes the next up part. I was gonna dog sit for my friend, and she has a really cute dog, so we went to pick him up. After we got home i saw the ending of the soccer game that was going on. I ate some food, relaxed, and then, the moment we've been waitng for, the USA vs. Ghana soccer game. But the bad part awaits.
Ghana scored in the first 6 mins. I was truely mad. Up part, USA scored with a penelty kick by Donovan. The regualar game ended in a tie, so an half an hour extra time was added. At the end, one country was victorious, but as you know, after an up part comes a down part, Ghana won.
I was writing this blog as the game was going on and when i ended this Ghana had won.
It's been hard so far, started with down, ended with down. But the day's going and something good will happen, bye for now.

today
Today at camp we went to trinity cathedral and we prepared food for people who can't afford it. The church serves food every sunday. that was the special thing we did today.
After camp we went to a soccer game, it was just for fun, all ages, boys and girls, it was a good learning expierience. it taught me to be more agressive!!! after the game we had these cool parachute things u tie to your waste and then run and see if it goes in the air, that means ur running hard. I race against someone, i won!!!
after i got home i went to my friends house for a second dinner :). pizza n' soup, yum. plus watermeon as a dessert.
I got home and now i'm writting this, i had a pretty fun day.

COINCIDENTAL!!!
OMG, y'day was SOOOOO coincidental, i went bollowing from camp, and i had spares and stuff, but no strikes yet, and then at like the end of the bollowing time, when there like 30 sec. left and it was my turn, and then i threw the ball, and just as the ball got to the pins the light went out on our lane and our time was up, and guess what??? IT WAS A STRIKE.
And today, we went canoeing and it was really fun, but some of my friends got tipped it water... the water was brown. ick.

First day
Today was my first day of camp! oh, and just to tell you, we didn't win the tounement y'day... :(
But, today kept me going cause it was the first day of camp!!!
I started the day with a start, I couldn't wait to get there! I got out of bed got ready and went to hawken middle/lower school. After we reached there, we went to hawken high school to start the day. It was familiar, but different, because i play soccer at hawken upper school but had never gone so deep into the making. We did an introduction game and then we got started. We had a choice of dance, soccer, tennis, or art. I play soccer ALOT and i don't like tennis THAT much, and art didn't rilly strike me so i chose dance. It was rilly fun, the person who taught was only in college but she was amazing! I was really impressed and tried to copy her way of dancing but at the same time didn't try THAT hard because i was a lil sleepy :)
After that we went to lunch, i was expecting your everyday, ordinary food, but at the same time was expecting ONE thing extrodinary because i was familiar with the food they serve at hawken day camp, so basically i had some idea, but not really. I went in side and wasn't that surprise untill i hit the salad bar, it had a LOT! Fudge w/ wip cream, salad (of course XD), and tons of side dishes to go w/ the salad, they also had a soda fountain, and fruit bar, plus you had an option to make a sandwich, it was SO cool!
After that we watched a movie, i don't know why we watched the movie we did, based on our age, because it was a Dr. Sues based movie. It was ok, pretty boring if u ask me, people were basically falling asleep, but it was ok, because i ate sugar and that kept me awake!!! After that we went swiming, don't know what i can explain about that... you use your arms, and you kick, and breath... ya.
Then we made a surprise... My dad/mom is probably going to read this so i don't want to give it away!!! I'll tell you guys after i tell them about it!
Well, that's basically my day so far!

Ps. OH! and i knew TONS of people there and made like 10 new friends! Now i know like most of the people there.

Talk about soccer
Friday was a relaxing day compared to the weekend! Although Friday I watched the 2 world cup soccer games, RSA vs. MEX which turned out to be a tie 1-1 and the URG vs. FRA which was also a tie, but was 0-0.
On Saturday I went to sleep early so I can get a good night's sleep for the tournament... and to watch the next game for the world cup. This weekend, which is still alive, has been crazy... crazy about soccer.
On Saturday, I saw the ending of the S. Korea vs. Greece game, which was fun to which since S. Korea scored to 2 goals, the final score ending at a 2-0. But the big game still awaits, USA vs. ENG. (Zoom to 0:15, and 2:20 for goals)
So after the game ended I got ready for my soccer game, which was the first of the Eerie Flagship Cup. We headed out from Cleveland all the way to Pennsylvania for the game. When I got there it turned out two of our players were sick, but an extra player joined us so we would have enough subs, just in case the two players couldn't play. We were... well, at least i was determined to win the game. Our Cleveland Select coach had 3 goals for my team, win against our cross town rivals (Check), win the tournament, and move up from the division 1 team to Premiere. And I was, still am, determine to win the tournament.
For the first time, we had a big cooler and we put our drinks and sweat clothes in to keep them cool, and we a had a tent to keep us under the shade, it was one of the hottest days I've played soccer in. Well, those additions I did make it easier and helped us keep cool.
Finally, we started playing. It was a tough game, we had some history with the other team, we won against them the first time we played them, the second time they beat us, and guess who won? It was a tie. I guess we're about the same level... (But Select is better :) We all wanted to watch the USA. vs. ENG soccer game, knowing the fact we are soccer players. We went to Quaker Steak and Lube, and it was SO COOL! It had cars and motor cycles hanging from the ceiling, and there were flat screen TV's everywhere!
The whole... well most of the soccer team ate together, while the others went to the restaurant down the street. Our coach said to "eat light" so that's exactly what we did. Everyone was moaning that they couldn't get the awesome french fries, or the vanilla with chocolate on the side. Most everyone got baby carrots w/ ranch dressing as the side dish.
Finally, the game started, USA vs. ENG ... It was kinda' cool to watch a soccer game with your coach and team mates :) As it started all the TV's changed to soccer from basketball, baseball, or whatever sport. All the TV's showed one sport, soccer. But in the first 4 minutes of the game, England scored, u could hear the "NO!!!" or the "Awwww" and the moans all over the place! It was really funny, but at the same time sad because the other team scored. After a while the goalie got hurt, but continued to play. Later, the Quaker Steak and Lube cheered when USA scored! IT WAS SOOO LOUD!!! All my friends started laughing and i couldn't help but to join in. The goal was just a stupid mistake by the goal keeper, but, at least that goal got us to our tie with England!
After that inspiring game, we went back to the field to play our second team from New York. It was a pretty poor team, we won with the satisfying result of 5-1; that sets us up to give us a place in the finals and gives us a wonderful opportunity to win the tournament! I think we have a pretty good chance, and just in case you want to know what's going on here's the link to our scores and what's going on and where the teams are. Remember, I'm in Cleveland Select.
Today I'm watched the ALG vs. SLV game (can't find any links because it just ended!), and Slovenia won, 1-0. And just as I type the Serbia vs. Ghana team is beginning to play! They just finished the national anthem, and are now shaking hands.
Today my team will play again and if we win we will go to the finals, if you have any questions about my tournament, or the world cup, then just leave a comment!
