What A Difference A Good Sleep Makes!

Well, here we are one day later after the supposed hiatus from exercising. That is not going to happen. Not at all!!!!!! I am off to the gym tonight.

I had a good nights sleep or relaxation or whatever you want to call an insomniac's sleep pattern. I feel like a new man and I did go to the sauna last night, which did me the world of good. I spent about an hour and a half there and enjoyed it immensely.


The cold weather finally arrived today, by Korean standards anyway. I still do not have my coat on, but think that I need to wear one either today or tomorrow. The wind is a little chilly, but I am sure by Canadian standards, this place pales by comparison to being cold.


Don't really have much to blog about today other than today is the last day of the speaking tests. It has been quite easy over the last two days, but also a little boring.


I watched a replay of the Liverpool vs Arsenal game and it looked like Liverpool never got out of first gear. Defensively, they were absolutely horrible. All 3 goals came on mistakes and not by good play from Arsenal.
Even with playing that badly, Liverpool still looked like they could have been in the game at times. Riise was terrible and the worst player by far was Bolo Zenden. He almost scored too, as well as Gerrard. Bellamy's goal at the end was not offside, but Crouch's was at the beginning of the match.


The one thing that did bother me about the game, was Van Persie's deliberate hand-ball, which rivalled Maradona's "Hand of God," but was caught by the ref. The other one was the tackle by Pennant on whoever, but totally uncalled for as well as Carragher's nasty one, which should have earned him a double yellow, red!


I think some of the players are way too nasty and over the top of late. Something needs to be done to tone down the tackles from behind and the knee kicking, ankle stomping tackles that put players out for weeks and months.
They need to have more respect for each other as fellow professionals as well as more respect for the referees. The referees are questioned continually, yet the tactics of some of the players goes un-noticed. The players are part of the problem and they and only they can find the solution. Give yer heads a shake!!!!!!!
