So, the World Cup is off to a flying start! ^_^ ... kinda.
England played Paraguay today in the Group B opening match, and came away with a 1-0 victory, which is a good start. But it certainly wasn't the best match ever played by the 3 Lions. The only goal came in the fourth minute of play, and wasn't even a proper goal... it was an own-goal deflection off the head of Paruguay's team captain, Gamarra x.x England's second-half performance was pretty naff, too. A few close calls, especially right at the end before and during stoppage time.
It was a win, but not a convincing win. Come on England, you can do better! >/
In other news, it's so hot today that I'm actually not wearing socks. Normally I wear two pairs of socks AND my slippers, 'cause my feet are always coooold. But today, I'm barefoot :P Wow.
It's supposedly gonna stay this hot until next week, when there'll be thunderstorms (WAH!! @_@) to clear the air, and the temperature will drop a few degrees to what looks like a much milder and nicer temperature ^^; Not looking forward to those storms, but a reduction in heat/humidity would definitely be nice.
Well, that's all :P See ya!
