Christmas and other stuff

Posted by mogway on December 18, 2006

WOW it’s been a while since my last post, not that i find that weird cause i’ve been at work until 21:30 today, yeah for me, i must be insane or something. Especially after the last couple of weeks i must be insane to work late again, i’ll explain it.
Many company’s here in the Netherlands have financial problems and the hospital is no exception to it. Because of that i was forced to leave the hospital about 1,5 years ago, but then due to some weird rules and stuff i got hired back and i got a contract again. But now they have something new, we needed to fill in an interest form of what functions we would like. Director sign me up :P LOL no seriously, i didn’t have any idea what to fill in cause i haven’t worked on that division for 1,5 years, and the functions have changed it that time, that’s all i know :P
So last Wednesday i had a meeting about my 1st function interest, and to make it worse with someone i don’t know. This man recently became my boss apparently. So i went there and to my big surprise he told me he didn’t need me cause he already had to much personnel. DUH i already know that for about 1,5 years now ugh. So i told him i would rather stay in the division i’m currently at, he understood that, but he didn’t want to pay for me anymore, i understand that, why should a division pay my salary when i don’t work for them. But he told me that he was going to try and sort it all out. Ok hej that’s fine by me, if i can stay in the division i’m currently at i’ll be happy cause i have been working there for about hmmm oh yeah 1,5 years now :P
This Saturday i got a new letter that invites me for a new interview for my 2nd function interest (the 2nd function is way higher then my original function). I really didn’t know what to think of that letter, i really thought why should i go? They’re trying to place me at my current division for good…. So i went this morning for that other interview and boy did that turn out completely wrong, so it resulted by this man saying (again he doesn’t know me at all): i wasn’t motivated and that i wasn’t a reliable candidate for this job (the 2nd function NO DUH) and that i should probably forget the fact that i can stay at my current division. WTF i’m not motivated?????? I’ve stayed 5 hours longer then i’m supposed to today and i’m not motivated????? Really motivating such conversations ugh. They’re all a bunch of retards, someone who works longer in the hospital get a lower function then someone who just started working there when they both have the same papers, that doesn’t seem right to me now. So actually i’m right back where i started 1,5 years ago, i don’t have a clue where i stand. In fact every day someone can come up to me and tell me to pack my stuff cause i don’t longer work at this division anymore, hmmmmmmmm really motivating…….if you ask me and of course the don’t ugh. Well the biggest problem is who’s going to pay my salary, the division i’m at now can’t really do without me but they can’t pay me either cause they don’t belong to the hospital, really complicated again, so because all of that i’m unsure of everything again :( Long live the health care huh. This stuff is also very good for your health :P

If you don’t like soccer click here

So now let’s talk about something i do like to talk about, yes it’s soccer *evil laughter* sry but on this great day i just had to talk about this wonderful game :D . It’s surprising to me that we are still allowed to play soccer here in the Netherlands, cause we got weird supporters (you probably have heard about the Feyenoord supporters in Nancy, can we actually call those people supporters???) or the weird thing the dutch soccer players say nowadays. Oh yeah and we’ve got a Coach of the national team vs everybody else, and this war ain’t over yet, so this loser of a coach had some luck with getting to a tournament and now………Where is Ruud van Nistelrooy???? He’s been playing really well at Real Madrid at the moment, yesterday he scored an important goal that led Real to the victory. NO don’t get me started about that UNDESERVED red card for Cannavaro, cause if you believe that his 2nd yellow card was right then you might as well get your lessons from our dutch coach, who has absolutely no idea what he’s doing.
Speaking about Cannavaro *evil laughter* he’s FIFA WORLD PLAYER 2006 *again evil laughter* :D :D :D , i’m not going to say anything about it but i’ll quote something from a dutch soccer magazine called VI
A lot of commentary was released when Fabio Cannavaro received the Golden Shoe at the end of November. A lot of coaches and players didn’t agree with the soccer journalists who elected the Italian defender as best soccer player of Europe. But who did the coaches and the captions from all national teams choose to be the best player in the world? Indeed: Fabio Cannavaro.

LOL it’s something i’ve could have written myself *again evil laughter*, really this is so great, not only because Cannavaro won the prize, but the fact that defenders are finally getting recognition for what they’re doing. And the fact that a defender wins all the important soccer prizes this year. I really can’t wait to hear / read the reactions of french coach Domenech and Cruijff :P :P

Well enough about soccer…..really???? Yep for now :P i even build in a nice jump section for you soccer haters lol :D So anyway Christmas is knocking at our doors again, ugh now comes the time when your whole family wants you to spend Christmas with them, yeah sure i’ll divide myself in 20 pieces or something :P And of course the big question, what do you get your family for Christmas??? I don’t even know what to ask… so why should others know it then :P Well if you have to believe the Dutch trends then Christmas is going to be really expensive. We have a sorta dutch version of Santa Claus and he gives gifts on December 5, but most kids got a brand new Xbox 360 for December 5. Is it just me again that i find this totally ridiculous that you give your kids such an expensive present on a day like that??? Yeah it’s just probably me………. SJIES look at this blog it turned out to be quite long, i don’t usually make blogs this long, only when they’re about a new expansion pack of the Sims 2 hmmmmmmmmmm gheheh, well last but not least:

Merry Christmas and a Happy new year, talk to you all in the new year

And that’s the way it should be

Posted by mogway on November 27, 2006

Finally there is still some justice in the world left. Jeez woman what are you talking about you might think>? Well duh it’s about soccer what else? So all you soccer haters may skip this blog again :P
People who read my blog (don’t actually know if those people exist ) might remember how angry i was ( was, was, i’m still angry) about the fact that -ugh i really have to type his name?????- *cough* zidane *cough* got the golden ball during the WC, he didn’t deserve it at all, is still my opinion.
But today justice is finally done Fabio Cannavaro is the best soccer player of Europe!!!!!!
HA stick that into your fat *censored* cruyff with your nagging about the fact that Fabio doesn’t deserve it *raises a finger against cruyff*, you’re just angry that Fabio plays with Real and not with Barca otherwise you would be saying something else.
Finally a defender is rewarded for his hard work, and they should be cause defenders are also important as well as forwards.

Look if you have a real goal scorer in your team, but your opponents score as much as you do cause you have a bad defence then it wouldn’t make much difference now would it???………….. tja das logischhhhhh (typical dutch quote from cruyff, it means it’s logical :P :P :P

Well as you can see i’m pretty happy right now :D And Buffon got in 2nd, very nice job, oh wait a minute a keeper on the 2nd spot??? WOW have they lost their minds or something??? And please don’t come to me with the Henry is better act blablablabla.
NOPE Fabio was and is just better :P

But why is the rum euuhhh ship gone?

Posted by mogway on August 8, 2006

1st this:

wat is mijn wereld wazig,(my world is hazy)
wat is de wereld klein(the world is really smal)
ik kan mij niet herinneren(i can’t remember)
wie jullie allemaal zijn(who you are)
soms zie ik iets bekends(sometimes i see something i know)
of voel ik wat vertrouwds (or i feel something familiar)
en het is weer heel even net zoals vanouds(then it’s just like old times for a short period of time)
Sleep well dear grandfather

Well now you guys know why haven’t been updating my blog lately! I still miss my grandfather and tomorrow it’ll be 2 weeks since he died, but it feels a lot longer :( . So to keep my mind occupied i’m back at neopets again. It’s really great that some sort of new plot is going on right now, or at least I and most of my fellow neopians think it’s a plot. On August the 3rd a ship is docked at Krawk Island. That’s weird cause there was never a ship on that place before that time.
Pic from before August the 3rd:

On August the 3rd:

Find the 10 differences LOL just kidding, but anyway the whole neopian community is on it’s toes cause there is likely a new plot YEAH! Funny thing is that the prizes from the previous plot: the Altador plot, haven’t been released yet, but the Altador Cup prizes are. *kicks against the World Cup, now i haven’t played enough for a Yooyu :’(. Oh well i thought it was funnier to see Italy become world champion :P So now we try to figure out what to do next with the plot, there is only 1 tiny problem, the ship has gone missing since August the 6th =)) Just like that and nobody knows where it went :D It’s pretty funny to read all the theories, most of them are bullocks but some are well thought of, sometimes people can be very creative. TNT being nice and all release a new avatar on August the 7th but we need the chef from the ship (probably) to get it, nice going guys =)) but we can’t find the whole ship anywhere in Neopia. There was also a great new game called kou-jong (mahjong) it’s really addictive but now we can’t play that game either cause it is played on the ship :( . On the other hand, my guild is becoming active again: Altadorian Alliance, and when the plot really starts we’ll go public again, would be nice to see some new faces for a while :D If you can’t wait until then just neomail me for an invite or add me as your neofriend: _mogway

Well that’s about it, damn i’m really having side effects from not watching soccer :( thank god most competitions are about to start again :D

CAMPIONI DEL MONDO!!!!! FORZA ITALIA GRAZIE FABIO!!! 2

Posted by mogway on July 10, 2006

I’m still having side affects from the game last night, I couldn’t even sleep from all the impressions from that evening. It was a spectacular game and Italy fought like gladiators. The 1st half is only a couple of minutes old and Cannavaro reminds Henry that Cannavaro is 1 of the best defenders (the best in my opinion) in the world, good job Fabio :D So the game doesn’t continue for a couple of minutes and Henry sees roosters flying around his head :D . A couple of minutes later Malouda enters the box and falls, Materazzi’s contact was little, but the referee gave a penalty. I think it wasn’t a penalty because Materazzi didn’t want to make him fall, because you can clearly see in the replay that Materazzi held back his leg. So a penalty for France and of course the “great” Zizou scores. If Zizou meant to hit the bar we might never know, but it was 1-0 for France. A lot of foul words fly through our living room, and of course I’m causing most of the foul words ;) But the game just started and anything could happen. And a couple of minutes Materazzi scores the 1-1 with a great header. Then the game is equally divided with chances for both teams, and Cannavaro also shows Zizou that Cannavaro stands his ground!

A nice quote from a Dutch soccer magazine about Cannavaro: The hottest Italian was without a doubt Fabio Cannavaro. The central defender gave the impression that an attacker of 3 meter tall and 2 meter wide and with the speed of a Ferrari couldn’t win a duel from him. No matter who came on his path in Germany, the winner was always the 1m75 32 year old Juventus giant. It’s a shame that the FIFA named Andrea Pirlo as Man of the Match. Or could that mean that Cannavaro will be selected as player of this tournament?

Ok back to the game. The 2nd half of the extra time, after Buffon saved an impressive header from the “great” Zidane, Zidane and Materazzi are again in the spotlight. Zidane gives a head butt to Materazzi, and no matter what Marco might have said, these things are unacceptable. And Zidane get a red card, a pretty stupid action from the “great” and “fantastic” Zidane to end his career like that. Then the final whistle comes and it’s penalties. Oh NO penalties, grumble Italy isn’t good at all with penalties, they’ve almost never won through penalties. I can still remember the penalty shout-out against the Netherlands during the Europe Cup 2000 when Italy won, but they don’t have a great record with penalties, or even that Buffon might stop 1 for that matter. To everyone’s surprise the 5 Italian men: Pierlo, Materazzi, De Rossie, Del Piero and Grosso all score their penalty and only Trezeguet misses his for France. So Italy is World Champignon!!!!!!!!!!!

The best keeper from this tournament is Buffon! I agree, he only got 2 goals against an own goal and a penalty. Then the nomination for the Golden Ball (best player of this tournament). I’ve got 1 word for it RIDICOLOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! According to the media someone who likes to give out head butts is an example for the youth??? And has Zidane played well during this tournament? Oh yes of course the “great” and “fantastic” Zidane played an excellent game against Brazil, but the other games of THIS tournament he played not well at all (and I’m still being nice in my expression). I really can’t believe it that the best player for the tournament is chosen before the tournament even starts, what kind of weird thinking is that? The best player of this tournament is without a doubt Fabio Cannavaro and it’s not only my opinion that he’s the best player, look around on the internet and you’ll see it yourself ( if I still need to convince you that is ;) ). Oh yeah Portugal is the most entertaining country from this World Cup? *Falls from her chair* Diving! So now I’m entertaining. (Weird word took me quite a while to figure out that diving was the English word for Schwalbe, if you have a better term let me know ;) )

*Kicks against those stupid free internet translators, stupid things never translate it right, I’ll be happy when I just can speak, write and understand Italian myself :P *

Ohne Deutschland fahren wir nach Berlin

Posted by mogway on July 6, 2006

I’m still happy about the fact that Italy is playing in the final this Sunday and not Germany :P Yesterday at work everybody congratulated me with the win of Italy, everyone knows i’m a big Italy fan, even the construction workers had go down on their knees to congratulate me cause Italy won from Germany, and they said Italy would never win, yeah right MUHAHAHAH, I really love this :D
It’s really wonderful to have Italy in the final again, every 12 years they’re in a WC final and if statistics are right they’ll win this time :D So France is going to be the opponent, stupid luck i say, a penalty? Well some referees give the penalty but a lot don’t pure luck. (no offence toward the Juve players in the french team :P )
I do have to say that the 2 referees did a good job with the 2 semi-finals, of course they made a few mistakes but that proves they’re humans to.
I was so full with adrenaline that i almost couldn’t sleep last Tuesday, it was really a wonderful game! I think that the man of the match was Cannavaro cause the defense was a complete wall, and he almost had a goal, I really hope he’ll score in the final, that would be really great cause the final will be his 100th cap :D But hey Del Piero scored so that’s a big plus to :D Cannavaro is playing a great tournament and it’s no surprise that he’s nominated for the golden ball, also 3 other Italian players are selected. The list is: Andrea Pirlo (Italy), Gianluigi Buffon (Italy), Gianluca Zambrotta (Italy), Zinedine Zidane (France), Patrick Vieira (France), Thierry Henry (France), Michael Ballack (Germany), Miroslav Klose (Germany), Maniche (Portugal). Still i think Cannavaro should get it :P

Oh well again the waiting :@ but i got really good hope that Italy will be the new world champion or like the Italian say it Campione del mondo :D
Forza Italia :P

Almost there :D

Posted by mogway on July 2, 2006

It’s been a great weekend so far. Finally soccer on the T.V. again :D I’ve really missed it, I was really bored and didn’t know what to do :P The Germans are through to the last 4, by penalty’s, I think penalty’s have a high luck factor. Argentina believes that they’ve lost the game cause Maradonna wasn’t in the stadium, but I think they’ve lost cause they didn’t score another goal :P
Fortunately Italy is also through to the last 4, they’ve won from the Ukraine with a convincing 3-0 :D So Italy against Germany, of course Italy will win :P Oh come on Germany isn’t that good. Besides Italy has already won with 4-1, but now Italy also has something else to motivate them into winning. They want to get rid of all the criticism that the bribe scandal, but more important they want to win for Pessotto. Fortunately the verdict of the scandal is due to after the world cup, so that will give most players some relief until then. It would be a shame if Juve has to come out in the serie B next year, cause a lot of players will leave :(
The other 2 games: England goes home, Rooney gets red, yeah the Portuguese can be quite frustrating, the dutch know all about that :D And France defeated the “great” Brazil”, not that they played very well this WC but that counts for both. Well at least we can still enjoy Zizou for 2 more games :D In fact all the 4 countries that are left.

Back to the game of Italy. I really liked the fact that they’ve scored so early in the game. Then they could play their own game and make more goals :D But the part I liked most was after the game, everybody was cheering and Cannavaro shows up with a really nice banner

So Pessotto was on their minds after all. Fortunately he came out of his coma yesterday :D I love good news like that :D
So now we only have to win from the Germans and we’ll be in the final. I’m still don’t know who I rather face in the final, France or Portugal. I really hope Nesta is able to play against Germany this Tuesday, well at least Materazzi can play again. I guess i’ll just have to wait until Tuesday.

So now what?

Posted by mogway on June 28, 2006

Ok so now what? I follow the world cup but today there isn’t any soccer. What am I supposed to do all night? I’m bored already *sigh* Oh well i’ll just fill my blog with nonsense and then i’ll go to Neopets

I had so much fun today at work. I posted in Dutch a couple of days ago what would happen if The Netherlands got kicked out of the World Cup, they would throw away everything that’s orange, and they did. But today was the 1st workday of a colleague of mine after the loss of the Netherlands. She was still pissed of they got kicked out by Portugal and after the match she torn everything apart that was orange :D Kinda sick i admit. So i told her that’s she’s weak in my book, you either support your country or you don’t. Then she starts nagging about the fact that Italy got through with a lucky penalty, jeez get real so what? So my reaction was: hej Italy is still in it and the Netherlands isn’t :P . So this is the prove that most Dutch people are fake supporters, i kinda knew that already but it’s always fun to hear it again :P

Something else, since September i got this dead feeling in 2 of my fingers, i went to the neurologist to found out what is was. After 2 EMG’s and a MRI they still don’t know what is causing that feeling. So i’ve taken to many pills and they don’t help either. Today my neurologist called and asked me if the new pills had any effect. Well they did have some effect they made me tired all the time. I also went to a surgeon ( i work for the surgeons) but he couldn’t find anything on the x-ray so he thought that a tendon could be the problem. So now i’m back at square 1, nobody knows what’s causing the pains. The neurologist is going to send me to the Orthopaedic, perhaps they can find out what’s wrong with my hand. But the Orthopaedic he’s sending me to isn’t a really nice man, at least i don’t like him. I went to see him a couple of years ago cause i was having troubles with my left knee, he told me to lose weight and that my knee problems would be over. Yeah right i got an overstretched medial knee tie and that’s why i’m having pain not because of my weight :@ So when i go to see him in August he’ll tell me to lose weight and my hand problems would be over :P Oh well i guess i’ve have to wait again, i’m kinda getting used to the pain.

One last thing: I want to wish Pessotto good luck and i hope that he’ll recover soon
