Dream.

I am a dreamer and a hopeless one. I dream that someday in near future I will watch Indian team play in the FIFA World Cup Finals. Someday I might be able to start a small time football club back at my hometown. Maybe either one of them will come true. But right when I am making such huge plans, I come across an article that has only three photographs and a little description. It makes me think if I can really think about football for kids when the primary issue is good education for these young minds. Its a matter of perspective, one can use football for kids who are passionate about it and give them necessary education for their upbringing. The bigger issue in India when it comes to sports (except cricket) is the necessary support from the parents. Without the change in attitudes towards sports, no major success can be achieved. It will definitely take some time or may be it is happening as we speak. What I can hope is when in a few years time, when I lay the stones for my dream the society will be ready. I hope and pray for that to happen. Do pray for it. may be next time I will share more about the dream.
 To know what I was talking here is the photograph.

A New Beginning

Well it has been a year now since I last penned down something. Quite frankly I have been busy with college and football. But again I should have stayed on course with something i started, hopefully this time I will.
    The vacation has begun and this time I have no idea how long will this vacation go for, cause I have completed my Engineering and so done with academics and college. It is definitely going to be a new beginning of some sort. I am relieved and scared with what is lying ahead for me. But that can come later.
     I am back in my hometown now. My place is one of the beautiful ones in my country, KONKAN region. And if its monsoon then it is more greener than it normally is. It rains cats and dogs sometimes, while some days it is sunny and bit hot, but I love it that way. I had to get up from my chair just now, cause I so a rat sneaking down somewhere. Its monsoon  time and hence rodents find shelters in nearby houses. This is common in a countryside.
    During the day me and a couple for friends went out and did some hanging out. I was meeting them after quite sometime. We have been best friends since School days. It was a good time. Later in the evening  played some Snooker for the first time with my cousins. I could not pot a single one. I played football yesterday after a very long time.It was tiring, I was already panting in 15-20 minutes, had to be substituted twice. I guess that was because of a long break during exams. Now as of this moment I am in a dilemma cause for this vacation I have planned to sleep early and wake upearly. But today is Brazil vs Spain at 12:30 am IST. Now its a tricky one lets see what happens.
    One thing I am scared about future is what happens to me and football when I get a Job.

EURO 2012


The league games are over and its time for the big league stars to bring glory for their respective countries. The Three Lions lead by Hodgson are under pressure, well the English always are. The favourites for the championship are the defending champions Spain- but may their opponents can beat them the new Chelsea way as they say it. The other finalist of 2008 follow the world champions and then come the Dutch. For the moment all the three sail in the same boat. All have some big talents and some big time experience. But past does not count ever. Remember the world champs lost their first world cup finals against switzerland, that was some awesome defensive tactics by swiss. The other under achievers along with England are may be Portugal where many have a point to prove. Italy and France are still in queue. Personally I always love a few upsets and surprises. Last time Turkey did that for quite a long in the tournament. This time Ireland led by the legendary Italian can do the same. Well all that can be seen only in a few couple of days when the football fest begins in Europe hosted by Poland and Ukraine. Lets not rule out any team. I myself don't really know all the team players so well, except England. Maybe the tournament will give us a few more names to cheer about. From the neutral point of view its gonna be amazing. EURO 2012!!!

The First One

       This is my first blog ever. I hope to do a good job.
       Since this is my first attempt I will try to be short and quick. I love writing but let me warn you I might be a real bad writer. But I would never know, cause never wrote anything big to get bad remarks except in school. I do maintain a personal diary but that is put to use only sometimes. I thought of blogging before but could never do it. I like trying new things and stupid ones. lets hope this stupidity turns about fair to me.
     Well as the title goes my blog will have stuff about life and football. I gave a fair thought about what I should blog about and then came to the conclusion of the title. I realized I am good at talking about life, philosphy, idealistic talk and make my friends go crazy and bore them out. The other thing I am good at is Football. I love talking and playing about it so much that my friends think I get an erection on just hearing the word football. And football is the reason why I started this. The EPL just came to a dramatic end and it made me think what I would be doing until the next season is around the corner, so I came up with the idea of blogging.
      Like I said I will be very short for the first time. I hope I can continue this and not come a very premature halt. Hope to interest atleast a few people. Goodbye.
