Having say that doesnt mean that I am an experienced or a good player in the game. Being a spectator is often enough to see the overview of the game clearly without having myself involved.
Watching the game is fun. It's a passive yet exciting process at the same time. You don't have to do anything, not responsible for any consequences yet able to watch the dynamic interactions happening on field.
Being a player in the game is even more exciting and fun. You are actively involved. You feel an adrenaline rush to play well and succeed. You feel a totally different you on the field. You just want to be ur best. However the difference is that you will need to carry heavy responsibility for your own actions as how the game turns out to be is partially dependent on how you play it. Its a team effort not a solo play. Very often, you may need to pay a high price for it if you did not give your best shot as seldom there is second chance for the same game. Most of the time, you can only wait for another new game to try again.
I have seen and heard many players dejected after the game. They resign even having played for many years. Some admit defeat. Some are forced to back out. A few get fired for no reason.
Some survived, came out smiling and I congratulate them and smiled together. It's something to be happy for them, really.
For me, I don't see a reason to play the game. Well, I am not a competent player and I lack the skills to perform well. I never feel ready to play so why even want to play at all. Neither do i want to be a reserved player. I hate to be reserved. I rather have zero chance to play at all. Why should I be fitted into the game only when the team cant find any good players and just needed anyone to go in? Being a reserved is worse as you thought you get to play one day but never in the end. It is just a false hope hanging you in the air. Putting me on the reserve list while you search for ur potential players at the same time? Don't ever think of it! Go search for the best players straight away! Don't come looking for reserves just to be on the safe side. You are misleading them into becoming star players!
The bottomline is : If you want to play, play it well. If not, be like me. A spectator, as happy as can be................?????????????????????

Geezzee, no reason to play the game? Capricorn cares less about their love life yar, main priority would probably be your studies right now aight?
Surprised that you would write a topic like this. Fancy you even saying that you lack the skills to play this game of LOVE? How would you even know that you lack the skills when you have yet to give the game a shot? or maybe you did have which i wasnt aware of...hmmm..
I think you be doin just fine in this game of love. I believe you do have what it takes to be maybe not David Beckham, but Casillas in the game of soccer. Heh. Why i said that, you will find out towards the end. Why don't you relax a little and don't think too much, don't think of the consequences you might face, responsibilities you have to bear, and let nature take its course. Open up your mind, let your love unwind. Or rather let others a chance to show you what love is, go on, experience pure puppy lovin. Heh. It should be quite an experience, its not as if i am asking you to marry a guy, just be in a relationship which won't bind you for life... If it doesnt work out, just break it, you would probably just weep a few tears, pull a long face a few days, then wala! You're back up on your feet again, ready to focus on other more important stuff. You're a Capri, known to be independent and mentally strong, fear not, my friend.
Now for my botttom line, are you really happy being a spectator?? Only watching other people play, cheering for them at just one corner of the gallery? Wouldnt you be tempted to touch the ball and get a feel of it, have a change for once, get up, change up to your jersey and kick some balls, gin! Heh. Stop doing nothing, feelin secure all the while, inculcate some excitement in your life, set aside some time from your work and get involve in this exciting, unpredictable game of love. Heh, i would so wanna watch your match, what would the outcome be, what strategy you would come out with... hmm... interesting...hah
Why i have so much confident in you playing it well, simply because you have the charm to make me wanna be in your team and play the game together, but i guess i don't stand a chance to be part of your ultimate team...
Still admiring you from far,
Someone...
Like the way u write on this topic. Sound no intense to me. The comment is good too.
I am one of the player who just got a yellow card for foul. I got it cos of my anger. Well, i learn teh lesson well. Now, what i know is i gotta to work out on my mistake and mayb an anger mangement class. Pretty much when i feel the time is ready i will b in the field again. And i will show my potential and what i have learn from the previous game.
When i am exhausted while walking out of the field, I look at u ( the audience who is cheering excitedly for my opponent). Somehow u make me feel like " lets change teh position , U come down and i will b the audience who can take a rest at teh same time. "
I point at u and say : " Hey! u come down, show me what u got, will u only come down to play when u feel that ur team is winning like 5 - 0? or U just really feel that u gotta graduate 1st so that u willl concentrate on the game."
Anyway, I am a guy who love adventure and not very best player right now. But i keep on learning and getting better. Who know i might b the best player one day. WHat's really matter is i am in the game, i taste all kind of feeling. I fly when i get the victory , i fall when i am defeated and i am a better player when i stand up again.
When is time for u to b in the field , i will cheer for u. Don't b afraid u have ur best friends who r cheering u out there. Don't rush too, when u feel u r ready to play then play.
Love of Game is a Game for Two.
No reserves please n Three's a crowd.
If u're in, play well.
If u got a yellow card, try again.
If u got a red card, exit with pride.
Cherish, commitments, compromise, communication.
Best scenario: Love becomes Seasons of Love
Worst scenario: Love becomes Hatred, Betrayal
Love is controversial. It can be so sweet that u can't stop smiling. It can be so heart wrenching that u can't stop crying.
Then why do people still indulge in love? Is love only for fools? NO! Of course not! The happiness of love simply overrides the pain. Happiness is infinity...sadness will be gone with the wind.
Gin, don't feel incompetent to play the Love Game. Watching the game is fun but being the player rewards u more... I've faith in u. u will be a good n competent player... Heez..

Hey gal
i couldn't help but leave a comment when i read this entry..:)ok, first, i m gg to say tat the comments posted were really interesting..hee.
2ndly i just wanna tell u that like u,i agree totally that love is indeed like a soccer game, except tat u feel feel even less in control in it than in a soccer game at times.But again, u nv know what is the outcome unless u go for it.
I think that presently maybe u are nt ready to enter the field coz u haven't meet the right match or rather the player u wanna play with.Don't worry, me neither.Ha.
But i hope that one day if u meet the right player, just go for the match.No mattwr u come out victorious or sore from losing the match, i always root u to the end.

hey btw thanks for all the comments posted manz.
Nonetheless, I still believe in friendships more endearing and enduring than a relationship. Simply bcos:
Elements of jealousy, over-sensitivity, possessiveness, obligations and doubts can set in when frenship turns into a relationship.
So y risk spoiling the once pure and innocent essence of frenship? Its' detrimental and not worth the risk.
One may say: Never try how u know? ok. If its a matter of trying out to see, I will not try with a friend. My target will probably be someone with no history of friendship with me. (I mean that is, if I just want to try)
And maybe its also what C.O has implied above, the time when u actually feel ready, probably is when u are certain that you have found the right player...
Platonic love is very much a part of any close friendship. But such a love doesn't always stay platonic. Sometimes it turns into passionate love. Crossing that line, between friendship and love, can be both beautiful and extremely difficult.
