Who says girls can't play rugby!!


The other day I went to the beach for a picnic with a few friends. We started to play a little game of soccer, which became a game of touch rugby. Some how it started to get a little more aggressive. Instead of  touch rugby  it became slap rugby, which then moved on to push rugby. I will say though the guys started to care less and less that they were playing with girls. Thats when I got my foot stomped on, not by one but two great big fellas. I started to notice my foot went from red to blue to purple to black in just a few minutes. Oh well I have more then enough time to let it heal befor my next shoot!! Perhaps no more rugby for me!

lmao!
i'm sorry, but it's kinda funny
:/
hopefully it'll heal fast
and that usually happens to me too, a peaceful game all of the sudden turns slightly violent and i'm wondering how the hell it got to that point. haha

i'm just glad you didn't get dump tackled, or worse spear-tackled!! haha take it from me, if you wanna try rugby again, stick to touch (or even slap if you must...)

this makes me think of playin with my older brother when i was a kid and we'd start out laughing n my mom would be yappin someone's ear off on the phone n quickly throws in "you're laughing now, but one of you will be crying later" and sure enough....human beings can't help bein' animals! but all your animal prowess is clearly channeled in your work, you super model, you. healthier alternative to like, fight clubs in silicon valley or something to bring out the necessary animal.

ahh i stopped playing rugby when i saw (and heard) my russian friend break his leg whilst being tackled and then him holding half his leg (whilst the other half dangled), cursing in russian at the "big fella" who done it. Sorry to be graphic, it was the only way to really explain it. So from now on im sticking to basketball, you should as well, very good for the legs.

love James

"it became slap rugby, which then moved on to push rugby" - pretty aggressive indeed. Last time I played was in highschool.. broke a wrist.. and never did it again.

Gah. I should really say this..

hello my beloved coco ... So begins this beautiful 2009 and the question I have is ... gateways that couture (besides that of Jean Paul Gaultier) plan to display your new and beautiful red hair?
Indeed beautiful lights on the cover of Vogue Spain Until then ...

Wooow I can't believe it...you have a blog! haha that's so cool...I don't know what to say!! You're one of my favourite models (I know that's what most people say but it's real haha) Your pictures cover most of my folder cause I always love the pictures where you are the way yo parade up and down the catwalks so I keep most of them and then I stick them anywhere. I also love your style, it inspire me a lot. And your blog is on my favourites right now!!! ^^
