sometimes, have you wondered what your childhood dream was?? relating to my entry before the last one, the dying professor who gave a talk.. i thought back what my childhood dream was.. and it was to be carefree and getting to play soccer everyday.. it was kinda amusing to have such a dream but kids have big dreams so never deny kids their space for imagination for their humongous dreams..
to be specific.. my childhood dream was to be a soccer player.. to be the best goalkeeper around or to be the top prolific striker and score many, many goals.. the feeling of being a goalkeeper is just great.. so exciting, thrilling and you get to fly in those short moments stopping shots.. however, people often neglect the keeper.. he'll be the hero if he saves the goals but if the opponent scores, he'll be labelled as the zero.. but did they not know that often it was the defenders who were supposed to protect the goalkeeper that cause him to let in the goal though he attempted to prevent the opponent from scoring??
secondly, it is easy to fathom why i like being the striker.. it gives a sense of satisfaction.. all the attention is upon you when you score though it was a team effort that produced the goal.. and people remember you for it.. who remembers who saves the most goals?? people only remember who scores the most goals and we all know it's Pele la..
though childhood dreams are very hard to achieve, we should never stop.. like me, though i know it's kinda hard to be a professional soccer player 'cause those pros start training young.. so i try to 'realise' the childhood dream of mine in another way.. by playing soccer for leisure every sunday.. not playing as a striker nor a goalkeeper but as a midfielder that creates goal for people to score.. much, much more satisfying than saving goals and scoring goals.. =)
as promised.. some of the pics have landed.. and here they go..
found a good bar/chilling/coffee place at the cathay.. the movie place near PS.. this eq max bar has a alfresco or rather open air concept of a chilling place.. very nice!! drinks are not too costly and you get to play wii for free!!

ok, i just sucked at it.. supposed to swing front and the golf ball will be hit but when i play it only hits when i swing back.. i just don't know why.. maybe i was so afraid i might fling the controller off the building because too much strength was used so i kinda controlled the force and it just went haywire.. in the end, jen was 1st, jm 2nd and bee 3rd while i took the most strokes to finish the holes and i got last place as seen above..
