1. e3 e5 2. Nc3
My standard opening working only for the black,so I send out my knight, partly because I don't know what to do, and partly because to stop the procession of the king-side pawn.

2... Nc6 3. Nf3
I send out my knight for the castle I intend to do as fast as I can, and also because I might get a chance of getting that pawn after all.

 
3... d6
Ruined my hope for the pawn

 
4. Bb5 Bd7 5. h3 a6 6. Be2
Usually, I would have taken the knight for the e5 pawn, but seeing that it wasn't going to happen, I retreated to e2. This move locked me in for a short period of time.

6... Bf5
Just to mention, I am not bright at what enemy would do in long term. I just make it up as I go.( quite well, actually)

 
7. O-O e4 8. Nd4 Nxd4 9. exd4 d5 10. Bg4 Nh6 11. Bxf5
Thinking that there wasn't going to be another chance, I took the bishop. Now I also see that move freed my queen.

 
11... Nxf5 12. d3 Nxd4 13. dxe4 Nb5 14. exd5 Nxc3 15. bxc3 g6
I don't know why he made that move. please comment

16. Re1+ Be7 17. Qd4
I thought this was a good move, but now I see that I could have forced his queen with Bg5

17... Kd7 18. Qe5 Re8 19. Qf4 Bd6
I thought this was my chance, well, i just didn't see what was going to happen.

 
20. Qxf7+ Qe7 21. Rxe7+ Rxe7
Here, I got my answer for why he pushed queen, not the rook. If I don't take the rook e5, He would checkmate me.

 
22. Qxe7+ Kxe7
I believe it would have been better to take with a bishop, for then I couldn't have gotten the extra turn by checking him.

 
23. Bg5+ Kd7 24. c4 Re8
He couldn't have been dumb enough to go for a checkmate, but I still decided by moving Bishop to e3, I would be able to push the pawn to c5.

 
25. Be3 h5
Thank god for his sense of wasting turns.

 
26. c5 Be5
futile attempt for the rook.

 
27. Rd1 h4 28. a4 a5 29. Kf1
A move that came in handy after a while.

 
29... Rg8
why?, comment please.

30. c3
I forgot that I could push the pawn two places( how dumb!)

 
30... g5 31. d6 cxd6
He was dumb enough to take it, which led to his doom.

 
32. cxd6 Bf4 33. Bxf4
Did I mention that I love exchanges?

 
33... gxf4 34. Rd4 Rf8 35. Ke2
Thanks to previous move, I was able to move here.
