Street Football Horror

Playing street football is not much of a biggie for me as I’ve been playing it since I was 5 but this time it really involved some big time need for car-dodging. And it’s even worse than it sounds when the drivers are furious about what you’re pulling off out there. Streets are for cars [...]

Hot Chocolate

It was yet another one of those Farah’s weekly baking days, Which honestly had a bit of a twist to it this time. She managed to bake a chocolate cake – and in reality! Even earlier on she made a delicious macaroni. And then put those pink stuff on it that even I couldn’t distinguish [...]

Goodbye UEFA Cup

And so the UEFA Cup bade farewell to just about everyone last night as Shakhtar beat Werder 2-1 to get the cup. Although Werder did make it 2-2 if it wasn’t for the referee not seeing it. And I’m saying that, not just anyone. I’m a die hard Bayern fan. Usually I don’t care for [...]

Even Better

After having success in yesterday’s game, I also had some extended success today in our training match for club, despite all the fatigue piling over from being super hyperactive this week. I just hope all this good playing counts for something, even though it probably doesn’t. Also, I was playing with my new shoes that [...]

The Right Attitude

YES! We did it! What seemed to be a fairytale has turned into reality! We’ve won the game and this time we really came back strong, strong enough for strangers to cheer for our magnificent play.

It’s Time!!

About 4-5 months ago, we (the team of us and our friends consisting of Ardi and I) played a friendly game with a local team. Even though the clear favorites by the start of the game, as we went on to the pitch with a full squad, we lost the game by quite a big [...]

They Lost!

F.Yayla (the team I train with, but can’t play for due to licensing issues) is now out of contention for a promotion spot as they lost their game 6-1 today at Nurtepe. That means not only this season is over for me, it’s for them too. Can’t say I’m not slightly happy.

The Yoyo Salesman

Like any other normal Saturday, I went to Ardi’s kids football team’s training. (No, not to do any training there, just to watch and perhaps ‘help’). And just like that, yet another Saturday morning was spent watching Ardi’s ummm let’s say not-so-talented-but-eager-to-have-fun-players who come every week and they play all the same the next week. [...]

Ice Cold

I usually fix dummies people’s computers for free but when me and Ardi went to Dr. Zamani’s pharmacy today, let’s say it was completely different. We got paid double what we expected and it didn’t even take us a lot to finish. Even though I’m not sure how many diseases we contracted in those 90 [...]
