After Irfan And Gonzales, Many Players Want To Be Naturalized And Join Garuda Team

Not for long time ago, we Indonesian people get so enthusiastic to support our national team plays in final of AFF Tournament (ASEAN Football Federation)  both in Malaysia and Indonesia. If I seen all the effort and the way they through all of the tournament before, I can say our national team is going better now. Many names are being well known in television and media. They hit the games! And yes we all love them, they play very well, adn bring the excitement into the games. Although we can't accept the trophy as the 1st winner, at least we all both the Indonesian player and supporter play fairplay and supportive. We still can't hide our pride to all of our players who have been played so well from beggining until the final tournament.

Two names who have been hit both in the media and all Indonesian people heart are Christian Gonzales and Irfan Bachdim. They are a few from many player that have a big contribution alongside to Firman Utina and friends. Both of Irfan and Gonzales are international player who are being naturalized to follow the national team. Irfan is from Netherlands and Gonzales from Uruguay. Their success in the national team makes many international player want to be naturalized and join the national team to play in Sea Games 2011 and Pre Olimpiade 2012. But, before their dream come true, they must compete to many other player from local and other international players. They must show best quality and skill to the national team coach Alfred Riedl who will select the U-23 team player.

One of the player is Syamsir Alam, an Indonesian player who go international with SAD team (Sociedad Anima Deportiva) to learn and have more experience in Uruguay. Now he is borrowed to play in Uruguay team. I think it's good to hear that many Indonesian player can make international carrier. I hope it will bring a fresh air to Indonesian football team in internasional league. Will these naturalized and local player being selected? We'll see.. I'm sure that the best of them are deserve to play and join the force of GARUDA TEAM.

Queer as Folk and The L Word

I just wanna share my experience with both drama series. First drama i watched was L Word, it was a coincident i began watch the series in youtube. At that time i was a huge fan of Mita, personel of Duo The Virgin, who cross dressing like a rock metal boy. That's why i started to have more interest to lesbian life. Just for your acknowledge, I'm a straight woman who getting a lil bit confused to my true identity and sexuality at that time.


Mita The Virgin
First i found a video when i youtube-ing about lesbian, and began interested with Shane voice and face and style and all of hers,i even don't know what's her name at first. I began googling, and youtube-ing. And voila.. i can tell you that i have been watching almost (if i'm not forget)all the Shane scene. Huge fan of Shane Mccutheon and Kate Moennig. About the whole storyline, i'm end up in the third seasond, and continue only for Shane scene, until the final season. Why? because i'm getting boring, after Dana died, and Shane canceled the wedding, and Tibette broke up. For me the interest curve is getting low and lower. And i was realized that all of the storyline is not strong enough to being remarkable in my mind, except for the Shane character until the 3rd season. The storyline is too dramatized, not truthful enough, seems fake to me. I don't even like the Shane character after she dump Carmen, it was really make me disappointed, who was thought that Carmen is good enough too make Shane changed. But Shane even didn't change until the final season. Damn! But after all she still looked gorgeous for the rest of the series :D
The L Word
Shane and Carmen
And after months, Yay! I found Queer as Folk. I don't even remembered how i can get into this series in youtube. I can say that this series is beutiful. I even like the end of the story, it was sad though, but has strong and remarkable ending. I even started to watch all over again. Brian and Justin sex, okay.. i admit that it was quite interesting and kept my eyes open to this series. But it's not all about sex. Every story has meaning, every character was strong, and the whole character grown up until the final season. The issue their bring even can make a hetero person like me can have more understanding about the homosexual life, and started to bring more gayfriendly in this life. Yes, maybe i'm not homosexual, but i won't judge homosexual anymore. In the past I really didn't like boys like girls, the flamboyant one, I thought their sort of digusting. But now, i'm really regret for what i thought before, for being such a superficial person and homofob. I know you can't choose for what you're, and you can't deny for you really are in your life. I respect for the strong spirit from all of the out homosexual out there. All of us own our own life, accept for all of the risks, and stand up for it. I even begin to figure what i'm myself is. I'm pretty sure that i'm a straight. I love man, and wanna spend the rest of my life with Mr.Right. About what i like in woman, it's not a sexually attraction, just an admiration of a handsome cool woman like Mita or Kate. :D
