The Word B

tonight it is all happening. right now i should be studying for that final i have tomorrow, but i am doing this instead. you can call it procrastination- straight up. actually, i pretty well know most of the material, so am not feeling too daunted yet. also tonight is match 2 of the state of origin. it is the rugby league match up between the all-star players from NSW (blues) playing against Queensland (maroons). queensland won the last game 3 weeks ago. it is a best of 3 series. we are having some friends over to watch it. i still must cook some dinner and find some time to study in between it all. i am predicting the blues to win by 4. like i mentioned yesterday, i am spot on with the predictions lately. only time will tell, and in this case it will all be over in about 4 hours, maybe 5. not that i am the biggest rugby league fan. of all the codes of footy played here in australia, it is the one i have taken to the least, but these are probably the best games to watch. even the grand final at the end of the year is typically not at good as the state of origin matches. this time of year it is baseball season in america, and basketball is in the finals, hockey would be in the finals if there was a season. however, i up and moved south, and left behind my favorite sports. the alternative is not as fun for me. cricket i simply cannot get into. i went to a game once, and just got drunk, spent the last half yelling at the people around me. i created more of a spectacle than the cricket game did. well, enough. i must study and cook and clean and get drunk and watch rugby and go to bed and wake up and take a test and well you get the idea.
