the tale of two nakatas

once upon a time, in a land known as raffleshallblock3room304, a young boy was entranced by the coolest guy he'd ever laid his eyes on...at least on the computer screen:





hidetoshi nakata...the first japanese football player to play in italy's "serie a"...the first japanese football player to be successful overseas...the first (and only) japanese football player that young moby strived to emulate.

young moby changed his style of play on the football pitch (and got into the varsity team...hehe...)...

young moby dyed his hair reddish-brown...

young moby started calling himself "nakata" on the hardcourt in raffles hall, much to the beleaguerment of everyone...

.

.

five years later, modern day (one year and three months after hidetoshi nakata retired)...

่€ (lao) moby receives a gift from someone who just returned from the land of the rising sun:







koji nakata (k. nakata) is the "other nakata" as he is known to most non-japanese fans:



sorry, but there weren't very many pictures of "the other" on the internet...

anyway, thanks for the awesome gift! i really like it a lot...aiyah, what's the difference between "k" and "h" right? it's probably the same difference as young and ่€. (ironically, koji is two years younger than hide...haha)



btw, i'm going jogging as of now, and as of at least twice a week...so that i can actually fit into the jersey (size L no less). hehe...at least something's got me running again...

cheers. =)

LOL. I normally read blinkmummy's blog but you were mentioned on several occassion so you don't like a stranger at all. Reading your blog is a whole new experience. Your expression and body language with that shirt on is quite an 'IMPRESSION'...Its 5am and I better not wake the entire household. Btw, are you on Facebook?
