OH. GOD. The Inquirer is a useless piece of--

I can only hope that this single-minded persistence will resurface by the time school starts again. T__T

My brain is dead.



Let me preface this entire debacle with an excerpt from Dianna Chan Vasquez's riveting article entitled The Other Younghusband

"James Younghusband looks good in photographs but a snapshot does not capture his beautiful soulful eyes, which are framed by impossibly long and thick lashes. A picture cannot completely approximate his near-perfect profile. This is someone whose looks are better appreciated up close. James and his younger brother Phil are football players. They are British football players, which makes them future David Beckhams. Like Beckham, who is James’ role model, the Younghusbands are as much adored for their looks as they are for their athleticism. Phil has been likened to Josh Hartnett for his in-your-face pretty boy looks but James has a darker and therefore, more exotic, face. If Wuthering Heights had a remake, James would be perfect as Heathcliff. If Phil is all sunshine and smiles, James is more brooding and for women who love mystery in their man, more alluring..."


In short/If you couldn't get past "...impossibly long and thick lashes...", prepare to be disappointed by these photos. I'm still lollerskating, I promise you that much. And the depression in my desk table has deepened considerably. (I'm sorry for this.)

James Younghusband; modeling for Armando Caruso.
"Cuss word? Ha ha! I might let out a “puta” once in a while..."
T_T Oh, James. You are the inheritance of Philippine football.









Right, just stick a football anywhere in the photo. So effective.






See, now, without a ball, that's just awkward.











Phil Younghusband; this looks like a series of bad photos on an album sleeve.



























For more scintillating reading material on these two check here, here, and here. YouTubing 'younghusband' is not worth the emotional scarring. Trust me.


I feel desperately unclean now... T__T

Could he have a sexier Beckham accent? I don't know.

NO. This the correct reply would be:

ELISE. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.

*_* No, I don't think that was a question.

Sorry. Still suffering from the aftermath of the FA Cup Final. Brain is buzzing and fingernails are too long... I don't know what I'm saying anymore.

I YouTubed (lol) James and in turn, got a half-assed video with a near-perfect sound clip, which helped me establish the distinction. Like I said, I don't know. Sounded like teenBeckham to me at the time.

He looks ridiculously awkward with the ball. And the flag in the background makes me fly into a fit of rage-- ...Well, no, not exactly. Flying into a fit of rage requires concerted and concentrated effort and I need sugar. Will you plz buy me candy? Plz? I just spent two hours on a hospital waiting room chair asleep. It scares me to think that that's enough sleep I need to get me through the day.

Zomguti. We're getting super scary slashy ponytailed Voronin (but I don't know where we'll be getting the goals). You aren't getting Bale (Tottenham are) and you have Hargreaves (who cost 17million, wtf?). The pretty quotient of your fug team went up, but only by a couple of decimal places? Sad, isn't it? Chelsea's letting go of all their pretty players like Nuno Morais, Sheva (so they say), and... YOUNGHUSBAND. There, I said it. I'll go cut my tongue up and pour acid into the bleeding lacerations.

I thought you were married to the younger one and Kat was married to the older one...? Does it matter? No. No, I think not. Where are you? I miss you? Please come to training. Or I will wither away and die underneath the sun. I'll melt like the Wicked Witch of the West. Only I'll melt because of the sun. And not because of... water. Water. Yes. Sam Wong, where are you? My brain is unclean due to this picspam. It needs to be purged, wrung, and hung out to dry.

You are always thinking about him. Every thing is like a stimuli that sets you off and you start associating different facial features and expressions with him. Even if they are totally unrelated or if there is even the vaguest connection, you draw all these conclusions that he and X footballer look alike. I don't understand why you think everyone looks like him. Does that mean the Younghusbands look like Xabi Alonso and FTorres? I think not. Plz get your eyes checked or your heart fixed. Either of the two will do.

p.s. i ♥ you.

They're half-Filipino. (They were even here for a bit, to represent the Philippines in the Southeast Asian Games recently. As you can imagine, the local media went ASDFGHJKLBRITISH! over them; they were on talk shows an' everything.)

REPRESENT!

I think that the Philippine National Team is experiencing some sort of British invasion. I think there's another, lesser known brother pair within the team, but I'm not sure. I wasn't able to catch the interviews, but they spoke during a post-match interview and I was laughing and crying at the same time. Their mother is from Malabon, I think, or somewhere. :( It makes me sad that I know so much about them.
