Hey there!?Vox

POPDo you think not having a participating team has at all deterred Jamaica’s interest in the World Cup Games?

“No because other than Jamaica, there are other teams that are participating in the World Cup, for example Brazil which is a Jamaican favourite, almost 95% of Jamaicans are backing that side including myself.”

“No, even though Jamaica is not in the World Cup. Football is one of our pastime favorites so we won’t loose interest in football because Jamaica is not in the World Cup.”

“No because we love football and there are three teams at the World Cup with Jamaican players so this drives Jamaicans even more to watch the game.”

“Never, because Jamaica was never a regular World Cup Finalist so Jamaicans over the years had to choose other teams, as such we grew up liking the European, South American or English Teams. It would be nice if we were a part of it, but our interest is not deterred as most Jamaicans have their favorites and still do.”

“No, we are a football country and we are taken up with what happens in the international circle. The CONCACAF region is doing us proud, we won’t miss out on too much but it would be nicer for us to be a part of it.”

“No, most persons still watch the World Cup because they are fans of other teams. It was only one year Reggae Boyz were in the World Cup and there are persons who have been watching the games before the Reggae Boyz were a part of it.”

SO...

...NOW WHAT?

YOU’VE ASKED HIM OUT

Here are a few pointers on how to relax and enjoy your date, instead of wonder if he’s going to kiss you even though those circus clowns scared him.

THIS ISN’T THE OSCARS.Just because this is your first date with the guy doesn’t mean you have to plan the event of the century. So there’s no need to get all dolled up in an evening dress yet. Play it by ear and dress for the occasion. In other words, if you’re going miniature golfing, don’t wear chunky heels.

PLENTY OF TIMEHaving an action-packed, fun-filled night is great. Just refrain from trying to fit a lifetime’s worth of activities into one date. You don’t want to wear the guy out by going to dinner, a movie, miniature golf, a poetry reading, and then all-night espressos. Pick one really fun thing to do such as zip lining or going to an outdoor concert. Seizing the day is admirable, running your date ragged isn’t.

BE HONESTJust because he likes football and you don’t, doesn’t mean you should go to a game to impress him. It’s never a great idea to change who you are in order to land the lad of your dreams. Be yourself, not whoever you think he wants you to be. Who knows, you might find out that you both really like going to health food fairs?

TURN THE DIAL TO LO-FIDon’t let your expectations climb to the Cinderella

realm. He’s just a guy you asked out on a date. If you start thinking of him as Prince Charming and he ends up belching while you’re spending a romantic dinner together at Pizza Hut, you’re just going to be disappointed.

COUGH UP THE CASHWomen’s lib is a great thing. But if you’re going to ask a fella on a date, don’t expect him to pay just because that’s how dates have been financed for hundreds of years. Whoever does the asking does the paying. But if he insists on chipping in, go Dutch (split it).

THINK ABOUT YOUTake a deep breath. This is a date, not brain surgery. So have some fun. Go to a place you feel like you can be yourself the easiest without any distractions that might make you uncomfortable. If you can’t sing a note and you don’t want the boy to hear you sing “Rhinestone Cowboy” in front of a bunch of strangers, don’t go to the karaoke night at your local watering hole.

SWEATY PALMSIf the date is going grand, and you’re both having a blast, then you’ve already succeeded. Avoid making an issue out of holding hands or planting a goodnight kiss on him. Romantic events like these happen naturally. If you try to force it, you’ll come off looking like a kiss-obsessed freak. And that is never good.Remember, first dates can make you a nervous wreck only if you let them. It’s all up to you to have a terrific time.

Dreaming of You...

Woke up late, no, woke up early, oh my

timing was off so it may have been one or

two thirty,

Imagine me where you are, both staring

at a moonlit sky adorned in stars,

Gazing upon your beauty, yes quite rare,

Whispers of sweet, soft nothings in your

ear,

Leaving you breathless gasping for air

The radiance of your skin as I cradle you

bare, love in the air, a true feel of fear

In my mind I know this is only a dream,

so as I slip through time, I hope all goes

fine

So when I wake I’m not crying, and you

will be mine
