I've tried to like the Eagles but I just can't. Hehe.
Funny that.
Made me upset, angry and annoyed.
I can't be friends with a Dockers supporter. I just can't.
Being civil and neutral when it comes to AFL!!
Not me, if someone can't like or love the Eagles, I can't like or love them.
I mean you don't have to know them. But don't say to me. I don't like the Eagles. That is enough to put me off you.

Back Again
WCE finished on top at the end of the regular season. Finals starting next week. We will play Sydney first. Forget last year's grand final and just move on. Yesterday WCE thrashed Richmond.
Anyway my Melbourne trip was great. Met so many great people and I met up with my gorgeous friends. Only regret - I didn't see Leah (my childhood bestie).
What can I say Melbourne is beautiful! No doubt about it now I remember why it's my favourite city! I got to love and explore it again!
I got a WCE jacket in Melbourne. I travelled for a local team's jacket. Seemed weird I know but there's so many WCE stuff in Melbourne. So many WCE supporters in Melbourne. When I was at the hotel I could hear someone singing our team song.
I miss Melbourne. I miss the group I travelled with.

Melbourne
I am going to Melbourne on Saturday for about a week.
It should be a great trip. I look forward to it very much.
Meeting new friends and seeing new places.
I love Melbourne and often I sense a connection with the place.
One day I want to call that city home.
Don't worry Perth will always be home in my heart no matter what.

That Girl
She thinks she is tough but deep down she is just the average girl next door. She hide it so well her weak state of mind. She covered it up with brave expressions. She laughed with the boys and challenged the girls. At heart she is one of the girls but no one must know. When the door is closed and locked, she cried herself to sleep. But each morning she greeted the world with a smile.
Soon this masquerade will end in tragedy. She could hide from the world but she couldn't hide from herself. I just hope she will get help sooner than later and when it's all in the open, she won't beat herself up.

Selwood
I'm not a Troy Selwood fan but because I am an Adam Selwood fan I thought I'd post this since Adam's mentioned in this article.
Selwood proves his worth

Exclusive to lions.com.au
Among the gloom of the Brisbane Lions' fourth straight loss stood at least one shining beacon of hope for the future - the performance of tagger Troy Selwood opposed to previously in-form West Coast star Daniel Kerr.
While the Lions dropped away to an eventual 62-point loss after being competitive to half-time, Selwood was strong throughout in keeping Kerr to only four touches and picking up 21 possessions of his own.
Selwood isn't the quickest player on the Lions' list but his sense of positioning and willingness to put the team first have made him the club's number one tagging option.
"It was just one of those days. AFL is a funny game with the way the ball is shaped- sometimes it bounces your way and sometimes it wasn't," a modest Selwood explained.
"Today I could just sense it was bouncing away from him, so I probably got him on a lucky day. It's just mainly trying to get goal-side, always blocking his run and niggling and hassling him.
"It's a strategic working the angles sort of thing. Sometimes you are in front of him, sometimes you are to his side. You've just got to work out what the best angle is to take. The last couple of years I've been able to adapt to that kind of role and say 'well this works for me and this doesn't'."
Selwood, along with Justin Sherman and Joel Patful, was one of three Lions praised by coach Leigh Matthews for their defensive play. West Coast coach John Worsfold, meanwhile, quipped that he wouldn't mind having two Selwoods - twin brother Adam also had 21 touches for the Eagles - but doubted he would get the chance.
But perhaps the biggest compliment for Selwood came in the second term, when a frustrated Kerr gave away a 50m penalty on top of a free kick, which the 22-year-old Lion duly converted into a goal. Kerr then scrapped with Luke Power, conceding a second free kick.
"At one stage he got a bit fiery with me. But that just comes part and parcel of being a tagger," Selwood said.
"That's probably a good thing for me - when he starts doing that it means his main focus isn't on the ball."
Selwood can see comparisons between the team in which his brother currently plays and the Lions squad at the time he arrived at the Gabba in the summer of 2002-03. Back then the now thin on experience Lions had one of the deepest lists going around and were on the verge of winning an historic third flag.
"It's an exciting time for him (Adam) - it's going to be good to watch him go through September. It's good to see his progress," Selwood said.
"It's hard to see first-hand out on the field but it seems like he went okay. I'm just rapt that he's been able to find a spot in that side because it's a phenomenal side.I remember being drafted and a lot of people saying it was going to be hard to break into the Lions.
"But it's the way football works and the way the draft works - everything evens out. He got there at a time when they were rebuilding and he was able to slip in there during that rebuilding phase. He's gone on with it."
The manner in which Selwood goes about getting the football - head down and without fear - means he has copped several head knocks in his still young 32-game career. He is contemplating adding a helmet to his playing gear but says no decision will be made on the subject until the off-season.
"It's probably going to be a 2007 thing. I realise the way I play puts me in a situation where I may cop a few head knocks every now and then," he said.
"But I'm still running out there every week and giving 100 per cent - there are no second thoughts. Over the summer I'll trial a few (helmets) out, see what works best, get some advice from a few guys, maybe look at some studies and then go from there."

Top of the Ladder
WCE defeated Brissie by 62 points. Which means WCE is now on top of the AFL ladder.
Adam Selwood did well for WCE. His twin brother Troy did well for Brissie though. But who cares at the end of the day WCE is the one with the four points. Yeah Troy Selwood kept Daniel Kerr to just four touches. Chris Judd had a quiet game also but Ben Cousins did really well for WCE so I am happy.
I feel on top of the world.

Top Spot?
Adelaide lost.
Eagles must win tomorrow that is their chance to be on top of the ladder.
We must beat Brisbane. Once we do top spot is ours.

Nicoski at Medicare
Nicoski was at Medicare in Karrinyup yesterday signing autographs and I wasn't there.
I am so annoyed. If only I knew that on the day.

Adam Selwood is a TWIN
Adam Selwood has a twin brother who plays for Brisbane. Awww they are playing against each other this weekend.
Adam is now my favourite player.
I love twins.

Eagles
With the Finals approaching I am a tad nervous. Last year, the Eagles did well on the Finals until the Grand Final where they didn't win (yes they lost by four lousy points to a team that didn't deserve it - Sydney). Our players are so young but they are the best players in the AFL and I know they deserve to win Premierships.
Eagles, please don't let me down again. The last couple of years we got the Brownlow Medal in Chris Judd and Ben Cousins and last year Chris Judd got the Norm Smith Medal. So yes we have the best players...now please win the Premiership (the last Premiership was in 1994).

Update
Woo hoo Socceroos had a 2-0 win over Kuwait...LOL. Mind you I don't know those players who scored the goals. But hey they represented Australia so they are indeedly cool.
Ummmm I look forward to WCE's game against Brissie. Go Eagles! I miss Mark Nicoski though (who is currently injured). I want to go to one of their training sessions but I have no one to go with. Elle's got a full time job now so I hardly see her. Plus Richie is keeping her busy.
Ummm that's all really. I know I am heaps slack when it comes to updating my blog. But there's not much to tell.
I don't go online as much as I used to.

WCE
Am worried about the Eagles. They haven't been playing as well as they did at the beginning of the season. And this weekend they are facing ladder leaders Adelaide. Eagles with injuries too. What else could possibly go wrong?

DC
Like Ella, we had the District Convention on the 21-23 July.
This is my update.
Friday
The morning session I sat all alone because I made it just in time lol so didn't have time to find people to sit with. But at lunch time I got friends to hang out with. On the afternoon session, I sat with Ayumi.
Saturday
I sat next to Reyka on Saturday. Kirsty got baptised. The Indonesian group all gathered together to congratulate her and her family. Then I walked around with Reyka, Emma, Maya and Matthew. They got coffee from Dome. Then I saw Caris, Jade, Nicole and Sarah so I said hi to them then went back to my seat then the afternoon session started.
Sunday
I sat with Howard and Mara during the morning session. At the start instead of putting the music for To Whom Do We Belong? song they put music for Joyful All Day Long song which was the opening song. The drama was great and as usual I know some people in Drama like Michael, Nick, Steve, Laura, Kelvyn and Julie. At lunch time I walked around with Jee, Taki, Yohei, Ayumi and Jake. I sat with Ayumi and Jee in the afternoon.
