SCORES!

It has been about a week since I wrote last. I wanted to write a few times last week but I just got caught up in stuff and couldn`t...Anyway, i was thinking about SCORES recently. One of my students, Mr. a, went bowling the other day. He got a 70! That`s right, that`s not a typo...a 70!!! I am not so good at bowling either, I usually get somewhere between 100 and 150, my best score is a 190, maybe ;), once in my life! But Mr. a said "I couldn`t be upset, so I just laughed." "a bowling SCORE IS NOT IMPORTANT!! but HAVING FUN in bowling IS IMPORTANT", I told him. My favorite Japanese poet is Aida Mitsuo. In one of his poems he said something like "People are not scores..."

On another note, I also like American football. My football team is the Philadelphia Eagles. Last year they had a very strong team, but this year is another story. They are playing a game against the Washington Redskins in America as I write this now...it`s halftime, and The SCORE is 10-7. The Birds are losing...
