twenty years it's breaking you down
the name is vanessa but everybody calls me van. estranged ex-NJCanoeist of 2004/05 K2-500m. I'm a WSO (FIGHTER) trainee and I'm doing my BA(Hons) English and Politics in the University of York. I like fast cars, literature, art and tulips. I cannot cook. When I was younger I wanted to be an astronaut. I am hopeless at math or anything remotely related to formulae. I detest parsley. I love the colour burgundy. My Macbook is my bestfriend and I've played with Macs since I was 15 so no, I didn't jump on the bandwagon. I have lofty dreams but I'm often afraid to chase them. I don't get angry I get disappointed. I intend to learn Spanish and German. Oh, and I think Liverpool kicksmajorass - I am not a fair-weathered fan. I think ambiguity is beautiful.

Diagnosis - Conjunctivitis, but in its early stage, so no harm done, thankfully. Gotta lay off contacts for a week or more, so have to wear those glasses that - according to chewy - make me look like edna mode. HAH.

SIGHHHHH Chelsea beat Arsenal. I'm not a particular Arsenal fan but I do have a soft spot for players like Ljungberg, Pires and Bergkamp. I don't see how Chelsea are deserving winners at all, having to rely on Roman's Roubles to propel them all the way up to the pinnacle of the league table. Sure, they've spent the money well and bought fantastic players (cue Robben, Drogba, Crespo, Carvalho) but most of these players are spent warming the bench. Look where Veron is now? Perhaps they'll realise that they can only field ELEVEN players at a time so what's the point of buying so many great talents and wasting them? If you look at other teams like Arsenal, Liverpool even. Not many of their players are superstars. Pool only have Gerrard who's slightly more prominent than the rest, and Arsenal? They have of course Henry who's a little more prolific. But Chelsea? Lampard, Crespo, Cole, Terry, Wright-Phillips, ESSIEN, Makelele....... we could go on and on.

Speaking of Pool, though they got their victory over Sunderland, I hate to say this, but they played amatuerishly. Sunderland found their space on the left, where inexperienced Warnock was often found cornered. I don't know why Benitez doesn't play Riise instead. He's more solid. Our central defence is ooookay, though not as impregnable as the old Henchoz - Hyypia pairing (till that one fell apart). Carragher and Hyypia now are still strong and a force to be reckoned with, but still prone to silly little howlers. Finnan on the right is excellent, and from what I saw on Saturday, he and Carragher are moving up a little to help in the attack too. The problem, though, lies in the strikers. Morientes seems a little hesitant, and Cisse was played out of position. They keep squandering chance after chance, having a powerful midfield (Zenden, Sissoko, Cisse, Gerrard, Alonso) and not being able to slot the ball into the net. MORIENTES AS LONE STRIKER AGAIN. BAH.

Ok I should stop, since half the people who read this blog don't know what I'm talking about anyway. Haha.
