Watching A Live Football Match for the First Time

It was quite a sight. My girl and I were together and we were watching this football match between our country’s women’s football team and another South East Asian country. It was our first time to watch a live football game. The crowd would go ecstatic each time the ball was brought close to the goal. People around were holding cigar torch lighters and sounding rattles and shouting. It was one of the most exciting things to watch, a live football match. It was just sad that our team didn’t win but it was still excting none the less.

Shirt Design for Azkals Campaign in the AFC Challenge Cup 2014

I am excited that the Azkals made it through the elimination stage of the AFC Challenge Cup, topping Group E and going through together with Turkmenistan in second.  I am thinking of going into business, producing and manufacturing Azkals shirt for the upcoming tournament in March of 2014. I will be using online design tools to enhance the shirt designs I have conceptualized and will source suppliers for the project.

Playing FIFA 13

I am playing FIFA 13 now and enjoy the new options in the controls especially the skill move and calling the second defender. The controls look similar to the ones in FIFA 11 and FIFA 12 iPad apps but an additional button, like a toggle clamp or stick, was added. It has added so many new dimensions to the game and has made the game more exciting. Right now I am still conquering the semi-pro level and will progress to the next difficulty when I am done with that.

Turkmenistan and Philippines Rivalry

I read from the news today from a local letterhead printing that the rivalry between Turkmenistan and the Philippines is one that we can all look forward to in the upcoming AFC Challenge Cup in March 2014.  The article I read eve said that the two countries match up in the Group E qualifiers held in Rizal Memorial Stadium was a preview of the finals.

Well, that will surely something to look forward to. With Turkmenistan having some great opportunities against the Azkals and showing some good defense as well, it would really be a good finals match if both teams overcome their other rivals on thwe way to the finals.

To Each His Own During the Holidays

It's Holy Week here in the Philippines and many are on vacation - one of the very long weekends being anticipated throughout the year. While many take this time to reflect on what Christ did thousands of years ago, there are those who choose to take advantage of the holidays to getaway and enjoy outdoor trips arguing that they meditate on Christ's sacrifice all throughout the year.

Well, for those who do that, they do plan their trip and escapade months before and prepare for it by securing outdoor stuff from peterglenn.com and the like. I, on the other hand, choose to stay at home, watch The Passion video and play a little bit of FIFA 13. To each his own.
