Well, first of all, congratulations to Arsenal for beating Liverpool 4-1. Sorry Liverpool fans, I have no enmity with any of you, but as a Manchester United fan, this is good news for me. Now Manchester United will only have to beat Aston Villa, to strengthen their Champions League spots.
As I have already written, I am a keen follower of football, but not everybody is. As far as playing is concerned, cricket, obviously, is played more than football in this country. So, during these holidays, I was determined to improve my physical fitness. This, and I write this quite sheepishly, was easier said than done. I had started out like a man on a mission, but that mission, when I saw the distance of the ground from my house, that mission seemed to have been automatically aborted in my mind. Desperate to keep my word, for I had boasted to everyone that I was going to return to school fit, I trudged down the path, and that's when I realised, even before reaching the ground, how woefully lazy I had become. I huffed and puffed and at last reached the ground, where fielding became a nightmare. And that's when I realised the importance of physical exercise and how seriously I was lacking in that front. In a glance people would call me thin, but a keen observer could immediately guess how poor my health was going to be in a short span of time.
This may seem like an age old topic, but I can assure you, by my personal experience, how important this topic is. I am not against playing video games, why, I do that myself quite a lot, but there is a time and place for everything. You have to see what are your priorities. An half an hour walk is not going to snatch your games away from you. If you think you are getting lazy, or you are getting bored, even while studying, devote ten minutes to physical exercise. It will help in the long run.
