DOPPELGÄNGER

I tend to always meet people who remind me of somebody else that I know, or know of (for example: Monica Bello and Michael Jackson, Ticha Penicheiro and Liene Jansone, etc)... most of the times my friends laugh at me and say that I am absolutely wrong!!!
But I still believe in my ability to find people's doppelgänger! And I won't stop.

So here I have another one... this time I am asking you to participate.
Here is a picture of our teammanager Jordi... WHO DOES HE REMIND YOU OF?
HINT:
It's an actor from an US tv series ;)

TAKE ONE MORE STEP

Happy Sunday everyone, time for some soul food again.

Enjoy, and I'm going to take a nap now before our game here against Girona tonight.

As I've been sidelined for a week now due to a spasmed back, I feel like this is some nice encouragement for moments when things might not necessarily go your way.

Enjoy!

"We get knocked down, but we get up again." 2 Corinthians 4:9

Failure can feel like a punch in the gut. And when it keeps happening it's tempting just to give up. But you can't; you must "get up again."

Failing doesn't make you a failure, quitting does. H.E. Jensen said, "The man who wins may have been counted out several times, but he didn't hear the referee."

A failure-free life feels safe, but it fosters boredom, apathy and low self-esteem. Ever noticed that the Devil never reminds you of what you've learned? No, he wants you to keep reliving the painful details. Learn the lesson, then forget the details! Victory requires building on what you've learned and moving on. Theologian Brooke Foss Westcott said, "Great occasions don't make heroes or cowards, they simply unveil them…

Silently, as we wake or sleep, we grow strong or weak, and at last some crisis shows us what we have become."

This article ran in The Wall Street Journal: "You've failed many times although you may not remember. You fell the first time you tried to walk. You almost drowned the first time you tried to swim. Did you hit the ball the first time you swung the bat? Heavy hitters, the ones who hit the most home runs, also strike out a lot. R.H. Macy failed seven times before his store in New York caught on. English novelist John Creasey got 753 rejection slips before publishing 564 books."

H. Jackson Brown gives us two rules for winning: Rule One: Take one more step. Rule Two: When you can't take one more step, refer to rule number one.

POWER ELECTRONICS


For whatever strange reason my teammates here have started to call me "abuela", which is the Spanish word for "grandma"..... Well ooooookay, to be honest I could actually name a few reasons...lol... like going to bed early, driving slowly, not walking too much in my free time, etc..

Even though I consider this a positive and endearing name to be given, I am still trying to fight it at times, trying to go wild and live on the edge. After all, I am still a REBEL!!!

So today I decided to head out to the Power Electronics game... it started at 8.45 PM(!) and I was at home at 11PM!!!! That's almost midnight!!!!

Power Electronics is which I like to call "our mens team".... even though there's not much cooperation at all, nor any benefits we gain from their presence in the city, hahahaha. Oops, I take it back!! Sushi Town has been giving us a 15% discount, and I love going there!!!!

I do like to show solidarity though and support OUR MEN with a cheerful voice and clapping hands.... and I can proudly announce that they gave CSKA Moscow "the business" tonight... good job chicos!!!

Alright, it's reeeeally getting late now and "Abuela" Fröhlich needs to head to bed.... until next time.
