Z is for Team Zeal!

Well well well! It is the final day ladies and gentlemen :D

Day Zero in the annual A to Z challenge, marking also the last day of April 2016, I hope you all had such a pleasant month, and year so far.

Like I said before I missed quite a lot of letters this time around and I’m not sure where I stand, am I a winner at least cause I didn’t get cut from the competition? Or are bloggers like me are to only be called participants?

L is for a Team that Leads

State Of Day. Why? O why do I keep doing this to myself? Days ago I watched the final episode of the Korean Drama Gaksital “Bridal Mask”. A periodic about the last years of the Japanese invasion of Korea and the uprising leading to independence. And this drama was heart wrenching. No wonder the two leads got the shooting cut many times, they couldn’t stop crying because it was all so painful.

They cried and they were acting it, you can imagine what it did to me watching it. Good side is discovering a new remarkable Korean actor, Park Ki-Woong who played the tragic villain Kimura Shunji, a psychopath you hate…HATE loving.

And. Goodbye Champions League, there will always be next year, cheer up boys. Visca Barca!

Team E and an Announcement

State of Day. This post has been delayed due to internet connection troubles.

Also. I’m really sorry, but I’m officially announcing that I will not be finishing this challenge with you, I don’t want to post things I’m not convinced about and to give it my all means doing badly in my Master research which of course cannot happen. Bottom line is don’t except to see the letters dancing daily on my blog. It is most unfortunate, and I thank you for your support and comments so far.

Your Captain.

Greetings my friends!

I’m posting for you today from a blue box where all the magical things tack-place, we can go to meet our old depressed future versions, or be hunted down by weeping angels, or solve the mystery of a mysterious crack on the wall and maybe dine with Liz 10 as we sale by a freezing star.

Have I made myself obvious enough? Ha!

Today’s team is special and dear to my heart. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Your Captain: The THEME revealer!

State Of Day. Notice I changed decoration? That is what I was talking about back in August 2015.

Why Hello there everyone!

I cut this strategic withdrawal to present you with my 2016 A to Z challenge Theme. Now I wish I can say I’m all free and we can chat like we used to do before but alas, I thought I will be through with my research this March but now even April is taken into the loop.
or is it out of the equation?

Good news is–isha’Allah- I will be joining you all in the marathonic A to Z challenge. I would not miss it for the world. Now I doubt I will be as active as last year but I will do my best. Hoping only to keep posting until day Zero.

Life & IWSG

State Of Day. this post went live yesterday on the first Wednesday of July, how it went draft again for the life of me I have no idea! I just hope those in IWSG don't see it as laziness from my part or anything, I was very determined not to miss this month's post. 

.................................................................................................
Greetings my friends & Ramadan Kareem

I did it again, I disappeared. Yea well, that’s how I roll :P

It isn’t because of a lack of topics. In fact many things were going on and I could have made a series of posts if I wanted to. Let me see;

I could have posted about how my team, FC Barcelona won everything possible this season just like I hoped all year long and how they kept their brave promise to us fans; win the treble .

Make way For the Champions & THE Champion Xavi

The boys greeting the fans

So in nowhere else but Madrid we made it. Finally, FC Barcelona, dear FC Barcelona has won La Liga

Thanks to our hero. Only one goal was enough. Lionel Messi strikes yet again

With a ridiculously skilled goal (I can’t stop hitting repeat) against Atletico Madrid in el calderon

TOSOD: And the Award Goes To..

 Heaay! goofing around! We Are the Champions! 

Football wise. Yes we won La Liga but more on that in a separate post :)

Reading wise. I finished Scarlet by Marisssa Meyer and again I appreciate the genius of this woman. Although I’m not sure why a lot of girls were hyping about Captain Thorn? I must confess reading her short story ''Carswell's Guide to Being Lucky'' I was terrified he might charm me more than Emperor Kai. But what I found was that teenage Thorn was a hell of a character whereas his adult is nothing but a shell bossed around by a 16 year old (i.e. Cinder).

It’s Reflection Time!

List here

Why hello there! You’re still around? Cool.

This is Captain Haneen’s ever first A to Z challenge reflection post. Through April I have become an expert in 3 swords from the East, Middle Earth and the West, caught a sun ray, crossed the fire chasm, swooned over the power of innocence, turned philosopher and blew the foghorn announcing the Captain I am.

And not surprisingly many many more.

I invaded my city of loneliness room after room and came up with what the lonely poet would put in her notebook. What a journey it was.

X = X-ray

State Of Day. Xavi Xavi Xavi! Master O master! And on the X-Day! what a goal on Getafe that was Master. Excellence.

T = TIME

Between Bayern Munich, *Juventus and Real Madrid I can’t really imagine Braca’s way to the Champions League finals but through a clash of Titans.

*(If I’m a hat wearer I will take mine down for Juve, 12 years since they reached the semifinals, they won it fairly against Monaco. Bravo boys).

S = Sectumsempra!

¡Hola Everyone! The Don has something to say:

Have I told you you were out of this world yesterday?

Q = QUEEN & 400 again!

Greetings everyone and alsalamu3alaekum

On Saturday I was going all around the place telling the universe how psyched I am for Messi’s newest achievement, his 400^th goal with the colors of the blaugrana.

Yesterday I pretty much did the same on facebook and pinterest so today I’m back to my senses.

I will act in complete grace, maintain my equilibrium, and keep to point with today’s post, the A to Z ‘Q’ poem. And...and..

Brazil World Cup part (2) From 16 to 8 and Decreasing

State of Day. I’m happy that Carles Puyol former Barca Captain was the Spanish player chosen by Fifa to represent former winners Spain and have the honor to hand the Cup to the new winning team on the final night. A respect he truly deserves.

Saw Hugo again yesterday, that scene in the end with a tearing Hugo telling the guard ‘you should understand’ gesturing to his injured leg gets to me every time, I love this movie.

And is it true that Suarez is coming to Barca? I think it is. Badly done FC Barcelona management, badly done.

Brazil World Cup part (1) The Goodbyes

it will be kinder

The World Cup couldn’t have chosen a worse time to, well, happen! Ah! It is I who couldn’t have chosen a lousier time to start a new job. I wanted to blog earlier but didn’t have the time, got a lot on me plate these days but here I am today and it is the part where I say goodbye to the departing teams of stage one.

I'm BACK! I is for Iniesta along with J and K

Guys I’m back. And I’m being as optimistic as possible saying that. I really missed you all and the A to Z challenge and I hope you all are doing great in your life.

Well I formatted my poor laptop, and of course silly me had to lose many files and posts and all my e-books except some I managed surprisingly to save. Don’t worry I still have my manuscripts and research draft. If I lost those well I would be in an asylum by now. Still it’s a disaster.

I missed Charity’s Dr Who posts more than anything. Really…life without the internet while Dr Who is talked about and explained! That’s harsh.

As I promised my I, J and K are all together in one post, I’ll do all I can to catch up.
