tuaran footie

















The verdict? I'm as fit as a 60-year old pensioner. No, wait - that's an exaggeration...they're about twice as fit as me


I havent actually played any football for about 2-3 years now.

Yes I s*** at football, everyone who knows me well enough knows that, that's also one of the many common things I and Zam have- we dont dig football as much as the other guys in our batch. Being not obsessed with football makes people closer, if everyone else around them were footie obsessed freaks ( the freakiest would be ete and sarchit, in their own freaky ways) and it was nice to know the world wasnt insane again and we could laugh together (very important point here- not alone ) at the others' conversations' sudden seriousness as they delve deeper into that world where somehow kicking a ball into a large net the size of a house wall within 90 minutes makes you a titanic, invincible hero for millions, and those stylish quotes like
Form is temporary, class is permanent
 - Sarchit

and
Impossible is Nothing
- Ete

Well, those 2 quotes could be from somewhere else or on a wall in MANGO or a Brazilian neighbourhood (do they understand English there? I dont know,  I was dumbstruck each time I see their unbelievable videos, so I didnt hear anything they said)
but I could have sworn I first heard it from the mouths of those 2 lovable idiots clowns geniuses







 some of my teammates.







About the game, it was my second time, and the team were very supportive. I lasted about 5 minutes the first time I went in..yes, that's laughable. A girl would have been picked instead of me in more competitive arenas.
But either because I was their boss, or they were genuinely pleased to have a new team member, but I was in, and will probably play again insyaAllah. The teams were made up of all medical staffs from the cleaners, drivers, clerks, MAs, practical students etc, and the other teams were from Kesihatan offices or nearby Clinics. And yes, there were pensioners, who played 1 solid hour and passed me for a score many, many times.
I have exercised, sometimes regularly, but mostly it was a light jog, or simple stuff..none of that sprinting, double turning stuff, and I never played with people for 2 years now. And I am actually lazy, that's why I dont get cramps or injuries, I think I hate exerting myself too much




the arenas..the girls here are also medical staff...
