There are still people surprised that I like football now. It all started because of Juan: he enjoyed it, and was attracted to it. Eventually we attended a game, the rest is history.[1]
Next I can surprise people because I enjoy fishing now.
Yes, I still haven't caught a single fish...haven't fished a fish? Anyway.
After Juan got his rod as a gift from a friend, I bought a cheap one off Walmart and have
joined him a few times.
The first time we went out on our own, I even had to disassemble a reel and figure out how it
works, after Juan tangled his line and the wire got inside the
mechanism.[2].
Becoming a parent and emigrating (and both happened very close together) taught me that I knew
a lot less about myself than I thought.
And also that I can still grow and discover new things. For example, fishing and football,
which I wouldn't even know I could like if it wasn't for my son...[3]
Rapids just won 2-1 with a goal in literally the last minute of the match. It was an incredfibly tense game. I screamed my lungs off. Wish I was at the stadium.
For the time being I won't do any in-depth analysis of games anymore, they take forever to
write and I don't think anyone enjoys them but myself.
But, maybe I start again, just because I like them =P
