LOL!

One word for all those suckers that believed that @FootballAgent49 was the real deal... ahaaaaaaaa!

Turns out this so called 'agent' was a bored 18 year old. Lol he got like 43k followers,  some Chelsea fan even got a Falcoa 20 Chelsea shirt cos @FootballAgent49 said that Falcoa was moving to Chelsea.

I for one never believed a word. Why would a real football agent go on Twitter and add fuel to the rumours, come on people you don't have to be a friggin genius!

Have a look at @FootballAgent49's statement (it had me in stitches):

"Hey Guys,
I am writing to tell you that, no, I am not a 'Football Agent' or 'ITK.' I am infact an 18 year old and I have been fooling all of you gullible idiots with my fake stories for the past 2 months. 
I started out when I was bored one evening and I never once thought that I could get 43k followers. I feel my twitter experience has been very successful with some of my 'Stories' even trending 5th in the world. I'm proud to say that I haven't had even one transfer scoop in my time yet people still say im more reliable than Sky Sports News and the BBC. Laughable.
Some of my personal highlights were the Kaka and Falcao stories which were completely made up. The Daily Mail even wrote an article based on my Kaka tweets and the 2 journalists who wrote it were following me. The Falcao story was possibly my favourite. Last night it was trending worldwide for over an hour and for over 3 hours in Spain and in the UK. 
Another fascinating thing about my time on twitter was how some top respected journalists believed my rubbish and even used me as a news source. 
Whilst I am here I can also point out there is no such thing as an ITK or Agent on twitter, anyone with an IQ in double figures would realise this.  ,  and  are all just poor versions of myself who would be nothing without begging me for shoutouts.  is another clown who stole my fake stories everyday and passed them off as their own.
Im not sorry for wasting everybody's time, you should have realised I was a fake when I got all of my stories wrong and deleted countless tweets. I still cant believe that, I, personally have been trending in Manchester, Leeds, Ireland, Nigeria and South Africa. Perhaps I do feel a bit sorry for the guy who got 'Falcao 20' printed on his Chelsea top.
I have really enjoyed my time on twitter, especially winding up Everton and Tottenham fans on a daily basis. You idiots must have realised I was a fake when I linked your team with every player possible in the hope that one move would happen.
My time has now come to and end and I hope to enjoy the last few days of the transfer window without making up rumours myself. Thank you to whoever followed me and retweeted my garbage, it was really appreciated. Goodbye Everyone

Regards,  (The Boss)"

Shame - Mini Review


So err I finally got around to watching Shame last night.


Hmmm I dunno about that one. I mean it's a good arty/indie film but it wasn't something I was highly impressed by.


And I felt highly uncomfortable by Brandon's (Michael Fassbender) relationship with his sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan). I just remember saying over and over when they had scenes; please don't sleep with her! Please don't sleep with her!

To be honest if I wasn't told prior to watching, that it was about a man battling sex addiction I would never have known.

Kudos to Steve McQueen though, I'm glad it wasn't one of those typical films you see most black directors producing.


Oooh and I also liked the fact that the love interest was a black woman. Not something you see everyday.

Overall thoughts. It was okay, but I wasn't blown away.

No matter what never give up!

So I've had this idea that's been floating around my in head for the longest time now and couldn't wait to get started on it. But when it came to getting it down on paper I felt like something wasn't right, so I decided to give up on it and toss it to the side.

But after having a good talk with my friend yesterday, I decided to once again to pick up my pen and give my project another go. Thinking back on that conversation, it made me realise that you should never just give up on something just because you don't think that it's a good idea. My friend made me realise that 'you' may see that 'thing' as rubbish, something small but to someone else it might be simply amazing, something of huge significance; you know the saying, one man's junk is another man's treasure. So if you give up, you will never get the chance to see how others may see it, you may never see if that idea grows and flourishes into something that is so much more. You never know, that idea that you may think is so small may go on to change the world.

If Alexander Graham Bell gave up you wouldn't be walking around right now with that flash smartphone you have. If Thomas Edison had given up we wouldn't be blessed with so many of the amenities we take for granted everyday.

So class today's lesson is that we should never give up. No matter how we feel about an idea. Like the saying goes no idea is to small.

So from this day onwards no matter how I feel about something. I make a vow that I will always try and continue with it.

Ever since I heard this on 90210 (the scene where Raj dies), I've been obsessed; it is so beautiful.

Rejection is a bitch!

In my short little life, I've always missed out on opportunities because, I used to have this thing that people call 'a fear of rejection'.

I was like so many people in this world who miss out on major life changes just because we don't want to hear the two letters N and O put together.

Up until last year if I saw something that I really wanted, no matter what it was, be it a job or a class or some major life changer, a big part of me would always talk myself out of it; because all I could see in front of me was rejection and that really scared me.

Why? I don't know, maybe it's because I'm a coward or maybe it's because I'm someone who wants everything to go well and for everyone to like me, I dunno. All I do know is that it was a major factor in my life and has blocked me from so many opportunities and it's something that I regret allowing beat me everyday.

But you know what after a lot of soul searching and confidence building, I'm pleased to say that I now no longer fear rejection. I know that there is so much more to life than cowering in the corner because I didn't hear what I wanted to hear. In this past year I have pushed through that barrier and I have taken the majority of opportunities that have come my way. My new yolo is f**k rejection; if it does happen, dust your shoulders off, pull your socks up and move on.

I have this thing I do, if I do get rejected from something I really want. I call it Zee's 2 Steps. Step 1 Mourn, yep I will draw the curtains, stock up on junk, bad telly, sad music, the whole shebang, cry my heart out, whine that my life is sh*tty and I'm never gonna have any fulfilment, scream, do whatever I need to do to get it out of my system and then 'Step 2', Move on. After an hour or so of being gloomy, I've unpacked my laptop, notebook, phone, whatever is nearest and I've started to make plans on what to do next. Seriously that's all I need and afterwards I find myself feeling so much more better and so much more focused on my dreams and goals, that the rejection I felt no longer holds any bearings on me.

What I'm tryna say is yeah rejection may be hard and yeah  it truly is a bitch, I mean none of us really want to be rejected.  But if we do get confronted by the rejection dragon, I believe that we have to fight it or we will just end up feeling worse off then what we would have been if we had just taken the chance.

Olympic fever!

I have suddenly become overcome with a ray of emotions.

BBC

The London Olympics 2012 has now officially ended (with the exception of the Paralympics that is; roll on August 29th)

As a former sceptic, I am so surprised by how involved I became with this years games. Okay not by actually participating but by watching and I'm not usually a sport watcher.

Up until to a couple of weeks ago I was like, do I really care about this big spectacle? Erm hells no. It's just a  big hype. But as soon as I saw the opening ceremony I was hooked, it was like a big light shone through me and all of a sudden I felt a big sense of British pride.

BBC

It really has been an amazing summer of sports; the athletes really have inspired a nation and I'm sure up and down the country there are young people all around dreaming of being the next set of team GB'rs in Rio 2016. Even I have bitten the sporting bug, oh how I wish I had taken my head teachers advice in secondary school and taken more of an interest in P.E, who knows what could have happened and where I would be today. But it's not too late, who knows what could happen in 4 years.

So London 2012 I bid you adieu, it's been 7 long years of waiting, but you really did live up to it.
