daydreamer's escapism
October 2010
“When small drops began to fall and darken the world in penny-shaped circles, no one around him scurried for cover. For lonely people, rain is a chance to be touched.”
—Simon Van Booy, The Secret Lives of People in Love: Stories (via starsmending) (via quote-book)
Just went through 33 pages of Torres’s book and I’m enraptured. Everything he is saying, every little word, resounds with me not just because he’s my favorite player, my #1 who will never ever be replaced, but because a lot of the things he thinks, feels, and believes in is the same as the things I think, feel, and believe in…
…It was an instinctual rather than a conscious, deliberate decision that I made when Torres became my favorite player all those years back, but as the years go by, everything tells me it was the right choice. He’s become a large part of my life; he’s someone I look up to and have a lot of respect for, someone who has traits I wish to emulate and someone I support and wish the best for.
I can’t wait to read the rest of this book. I think it’s going to be one of those books I’ll treasure and read time and time again.
And I seriously need to squash this feeling of wanting to tear up after every freaking word if I ever want to finish this book -_-.
La Furia Roja enters the Guinness World Records
Since 2008, the National Team has not moved from the top two teams in the FIFA standings that are updated monthly and since June this year they have been number one.
After winning the Euro 2008, Spain also beat records in the way: From 26 June 2008 to 20 June 2009, Spain won 15 consecutive matches, getting the record for the most consecutive wins in international football. The data is part of the Guinness Book of 2011. More news after the break…
That’s rightttt. HELL YEAH!

“I think it’s very important that no matter where … every opportunity I will get for the rest of my life, I would not have got if it wasn’t for Harry Potter,” Radcliffe said. “And it would be the height of ingratitude if I was ever anything but proud to be associated with these films … we also have the knowledge that no matter what happens in the rest of our lives, no one will have had this particular experience other than the three of us. And I think that is something that will never, never leave us.”
—Daniel Radcliffe
