THE WORLD CUP-DAYSTAR UNIVERSITY LADIES SPEAK OUT!

#WORLD CUP BONANZA

The world cup is here finally; and we get it that the world cup is a religion for our counterparts. Walk on the streets of Daystar University or any part of the planet, and you will probably find a group of men hurdled somewhere and totally enthralled to football.
I really don’t get the fever for this silly season-again- when men opt to leave us with all our beauty and intelligence and dedicate a whole month to watching 22 grown men chases after  a leather ball for 90 or so minutes.
The lecture halls are also now discussing forums as our male lecturer engage the male students. Okay. I get it! It is far too big and far too all consuming.



What about at home? Brazil may be all enthralling and have some of the word’s beautiful ladies but God did not favor them when it comes to time. This is a country with awkward times as depicted on the World cup broadcast.
We now cook ‘brunch’ for our dads and brothers who eat at 1am all in the name of watching a game. A times they spend it at the bar and we get to watch our soap-operas and movie series. But what’s sad is coking for your man (or men) and her “footer boys” who watch soccer till morning on a Saturday.
But this time we ladies will find interesting things to do. For some, it will be a season to find new mates. Just like the transfer period and window period in soccer, we like to think of ourselves as football singles (and searching?).

This will be a great time with the girls and “my time” to reflect and find strength within. This time is great to put myself first.
This time is that time the woman you neglect will find a reason to hang out with other men who hate football? So, all men and women too will be having fun. We will enjoy our sleep more as men come to class hoarse; depressed, half asleep and tired after a sleepless night cheering a losing team. We will read Maya Angelou or go out dancing with the girls. So men, don’t get over excited over world cup, this is the time your woman might just stray!
