A Look into my Life

Football, a Saturday, and rain. Yes I am in England! I received a ticket to attend a football match between the Queen’s Park Rangers, a local team, and Cardiff City, from Wales. We were told to keep a close eye on the spectators. It seems that the reserved British throw everything out the window at these games. They have quite a few chants saying not very nice things about the other team’s mothers. The most striking thing was boy behind me who couldn’t have been much older than 10 screaming to the opposing team that they are freaking crap (edited, I’d like to keep my site rated PG!). It certainly was a very interesting time indeed! It was a terrible day for it, it poured nearly the entire game.

I do have a bit of advice for attending such a match, research BOTH team’s colors. Turns out that I showed up wearing the opposing teams colors, GREAT. Noting came out of it but you do get quite a few dirty looks.

This past Friday I finally got to see Quantum of Solace. It was a good movie with an awesome car chase first thing. At the end I had quite a hollow feeling. It was a good movie, not a great one. Still go see it when it comes out!

Tomorrow I’ll be attending the Remembrance Day Parade. Remembrance day is about the equivalent to our Memorial Day. The Queen will be out to lay a wreath on the memorial in London. I hope to catch a glimpse to her! I’ll report back with my findings.

Pictures will be up shortly of the football game.

This past week has been a total blur. I’ve had quite a bit of school work that’s been keeping me very busy. Our internet service has been up and down all week as well so I haven’t been able to post much. I do have a good bit to talk about but I’m on my way out the door shortly to go see Quantum of Solace (James Bond) before anyone in the US can! I should get some things up this evening so stay tuned!
