Adios world cup!!

so the world cup is over. none is more glad then me, to finally have my bf back. for a month i had to share him with so many countries and people. ive missed a number of movies i wanted to catch coz 14 men wanted to run after one ball and he HAD to watch it. he's bummed WC's over n im on top of the world.


but despited my bitching about it, i did catch one game with him. at laundry nonetheless. anyone who knows me know that i hate loud places whr conversations are impossible. that is why i dont club. and dont even get me started on the smokey air! gosh! you could drop dead in 2 seconds from all that 2nd hand smoke! i mean really!! ventilate much??


it was his frens bday n they were gathering there, plus they were gonna catch the germany- argentina game.. and papa had bought me a germany shirt from his recent trip (semangat sbb got baju!) so i thot, wat the heck! he accompanied me shopping, how bad could this be!? turns out.... not too bad! i surprised myself! by the end of the game i was still standing. not the least bit grumpy (as i tend to be when surrounded by loud noises n smoke)! i even enjoyed the game! eventho i didnt understand one bit of it! at all!!


i sat down at my spot n people watched at one point, dizzy from the smoke. it was a hodgepotch of races and supporters. all very vocal ones mind u. next to our group there was a bachelor party going on, a guy was wearing what looked like a disposable rain poncho with words scribbled on it, no doubt the lucky man. they were making so so so much noise! as the nite progressed the groom was asked to produce a bra as a dare. he wasnt really given a choice really. poor guy was almost on the verge of tears begging every single girl. i was just waiting for him to get the living daylights punched out of him. sadly- this never came. he did eventually get his brassier. good on u mate!


it was a riot of sounds. screams shouts n curses would ring out at every dramatic turn of the game. punctuated by drunken shouts from the groom party. i came out with only half my hearing intact. at one point we were left with about a 3 inches of view of the big screen, thanx to giant a**ess blocking it. it bothered even me who wasnt really watching it! coz sumone had to get up every 2 minutes n go xcuse me!! coz shouting it from afar would have as much reaction from them as it would if u said it in ur head. so noisy, sure kenot here wan.


anyway! germany won that nite!! woohooo!!! it was an experience for me. i didnt say it was great, but it wasnt bad. would i go again? probably not, but im glad i did. and as for the world cup? would i stay up in the wee hours to watch it again? maybe... if the crowd is good.. and if i have a shirt of which even team is winning- or at least sorta ok-ish.. or if robin van persie is playing.. n not at 230am thank u...




excuse me.. i love u!
