rugby anxiety

yes, i'm getting nervous because of the rugby. wah kau, as if laki kau main kan. no, but the thing is everybody in New Zealand is talking about rugby almost everywhere. uni, toilet, super market, bar and especially at school. and i madly in love with rugby too. but not because of rugby fever or something ok.i like rugby since long time ago. so, please no words like "oh, perempuan suka pemain rugby je, bukan rugby" " oh, perempuan suka tengok pemain rugby yang hot dan tough je". i'm not like that. honestly, i'm more to stategies rather than hot players. tapi kalau dah tengok tu, tengok je la semua kan. players+strategies+spirit.
we just passed the quarter finals. now we only have New Zealand, Australia, France and Wales for semi final. i went to Queen Wharf for quarter final between France and England. even though France won, i still on England because they are freaking good. France are good too. their defence was magnificent. so for semi final France will see Wales on saturday. on saturday i got camping at Papakura. not sure if we could get live streaming. oh, pretty please. i wanna watch the game!

Queen Wharf before the game, pretty calm before the crowd gone crazy

lightman came out from nowhere after the first half

next day i got out early because i wanted to go to Queen Wharf because i dont wanna go to Captain Cook Wharf because it's not as happening as QW. QW was packed because everybody in New Zealand crazy over All Blacks.tak kira budak ke, orang tua ke, lelaki ke, perempuan lagi lakan.

only 2 tries from All Blacks that night. frustrating aye? but i'm sure they have played so hard. Argentina has advantages on physical strength and experienced players. nasib baik malam tu Piri Weepu jadi kicker. kalau tak memang All Blacks kalah teruk sebab most of the score sebab kick. tindakan bijak oleh pengurus pasukan! before this ramai orang frust dgn Colin Slade because he's not a good kicker. he was chosen to be the kicker replacing Dan Carter who is injured and drawed from RWC2011. people keep comparing Colin to Dan and he was so stressful because he is inexperinced. i heard people around me said Piri is better than Colin. it's not a fair comparison. Colin is very young and new. for semi final, i'm not sure if Colin playing because he's injured too now.

Piri Weepu, man of the match for quarter final. if you noticed, he also the leader for Haka

p/s: girls,sorry if rugby is not your interest. but believe me, rugby is sexayyy....p
