My board exams and the league season have been the major hindrance that have kept me from updating my blog for the past month or two, thereby saddening my entire readership network which amounts to a sum total of two (including me).
The Mumbai University and The Mumbai District Football Association have impeded my meteoric progress in the blogosphere by scheduling gruelling engineering second year semester 4 exams and division 5 league matches respectively in this time period.
Strictly going by order of preferrence, I would prefer playing 5 football matches in one day rather than give 1 examination in 5 days (hyperbole to be accepted without challenge). The exam "mentality" managed to screw up my teams chances of winning the league this season. The major contributing factor being that out of the 11 starters, 6 are studying to be engineers.
After a 3-0 victory and 8-0 trouncing of some poor guys in this time frame, we succumbed to two goalless draws leaving everyone except our goalkeeper extremely dejected. ( Anyways, it is quite hard to get our goalie to lose his spirits, though I have no clue whether his happy-go-lucky attitude is on account of his "lack of IQ" and "supposed abundance of AQ".)
Also the primary objective of every M.U student is to attain a minimum of 40 marks in every paper(though for a vast majority, the specified minimum is also the maximum). So, you see where I have been directing all my efforts. And did I mention that I also scored three goals for my team in the course of the two victories we gathered over this month.
There you go.
The sole objective of this post is to show all of you that I am a bloody good football player, and am also not vertically, horizontally or transcendentally or visually or otherwise challenged. And I will not be offended in any way if you consider me a stud.
