Go Socceroos!!!!!!!






G'day all,
Well it's been a bloody long time since I've updated you all so here we go. Well it's getting hotter by the day still and some nights it's really hard to sleep as it's so sticky and humid. We just had a bye last weekend for footy and we've played 3 official season games now. We play 16 aside in this league however we've been struggling to get 14 or 15 players on the field so we still need to recruit a heap of more players. We've lost all 3 games so far by 10+ goals but we've been trying our hardest. I've been playing with a bit of a sore knee and I found out the other day after going to the doctors that I strained my medial ligament but I just need to rest it for a few weeks and she'll be apples. I've also been doing my best here to support the Socceroos in the World Cup. I bought a fake Socceroos T-shirt the other day and I've been walking around with my Aussie flag everywhere. We watched them play Brazil on Sunday at an Aussie pub with about 200 other Aussie's and it was great fun apart from losing the game, we all yelled our guts out "come on ya mongrels". I've been hanging out with the guys from my footy team a fair bit lately. They are all such great blokes I'm really happy that I met them all. On Saturday I was heading downtown on the bus and some poor fella on the footpath was bleeding something bad from his head and was passing out. He said some scallywags smacked him in the head with a bottle. The bus driver called the ambo's and we all had to get onto another bus. It made me feel pretty sick in the guts. I've finally gone off my microwave meals and have started cooking and eating the healthiest I've even eaten in my whole life. Each day I've been eating musili, yogurt, rice, salad, veggies, pork/beef/fish, beans, and fruit. How bloody healthy is that hey! such a bonza balance. The other exciting thing that happened to me in the past few weeks is that I got locked out of the house in my boxer shorts. Yep you heard that correct semi bloody naked with the key locked inside my room. Nobody was at home to let me in so I had to go for a bit of a nudey run for about a km to my landlords house wearing nothing but my Aussie flag boxers. Luckily his wife was home and she gave me a spare key to get back in. I don't think I've ever been so embarrassed in my life before. Well I think that's about all for now.
C'MON AUSSIE C'MON
