Post World Cup

Sunday was the last day of the World Cup, the final saw Germany take on Argentina for Germany to score one goal in added time to be crowned winners of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. It wasn't the best game to watch, but the pressure on both teams could be felt by all. Each team had their countries behind them willing them to win, but like in most games, there could only be one winner, and what a team they were to win! These are the stars of the World Cup, with players that are similar ages to me,  took to the world stage and performed the best, taking home the only prize they needed... The World Cup. 
The person I feel most sorry for was Messi, he been call the player of our time, which I don't doubt, but a man is only as good as the team that supports him, there as they say is no I in team. One world class player can't win it for his country, the team wasn't strong enough to take on the Germany's, who had world class players, in goal Manuel Neuer (who I now have a crush on... He's a bit of a hottie) plus Thomas Müller playing midfield, and the man of the last match for his only goal in the game, Mario Götze. Plus the whole squad who worked so hard to bring the Trophy back to Germany after 24years (about my age). They were a well oiled machine who will be a team to watch when the Euros take place in two years time as this is a squad who will continue to be together for many years time. 
I'd also like to say well done to Brazil for hosting an amazing tournament, a fantastic back drop to these game, I just hope it leave a lasting impression on the people of Brazil, and good fortune to them all. I know myself it's a country I would love to visit, and will be on many peoples bucket lists too. 

We all now have a month before the premier league starts, so I'm going to take a chill from football, as I've been watching as many matches as I could, as well as a bit of tennis. As soon as the premier league starts I'll be behind my team, Everton. 

All I can hope is that in four years time, the trophy will be coming back to England... Well a girl can dream right?

Last nights trip to the cinema "22 Jump Street"

Hey,

I haven't been to the cinema in ages, so when my friend asked if I wanted to go with her and use her orange Wednesday code, I thought it might be time to get out of the house. We looked at the list of which they were showing and thought a good laugh would be the best thing to watch. I had already seen "21 Jump Street" which I loved, I was laughing so much and it was great to stare at Channing Tatum... He just dreamy. 
This film picks up where the other film finished, with the two main characters Janko (Channing Tatum) and Schmidt (Jonah Hill) going under cover to find out who is supplying drugs on campus at a college, therefore the boys are off to college! Yep instead of high school, they have been upgraded. 
Now this film doesn't take itself seriously... That's what makes it so funny. There are so many parts that make you laugh, from when the boys find the drugs, try and get into a frat house, (Tatum just climbs the building while Hill gets a rope to pull him up while he has a safety helmet on). There is more of Ice Cubes character in this film, and I think he's great... A perfect angry man in parts. 

This was a great film to pick to have a laugh with, I'd be quite happy to go see this again... Hopefully soon.

Enjoy your week,

Love Lolly

Hello July

Heeyyyy,

Another day, another month. And here is July.

I woke up this morning and decided I needed to make sure this month I stay fit and health, therefore I started the day by going to the little gym we have set up in the garden. With the radio on loud I did a small work out... Well it's good to start somewhere. 

I carried on being good today with the food I had for breakfast. 
Bananas and milk to make my own shake. 
Then it's great to add colour to your diet so I had a sunny orange. 
 
Carrying on this good work I brought myself a second hand bike, so I now have no excuses not to get out there. We shall see what happens. 


This is what I'm gonna keep in my head. 



Love Lolly
