I've been staying up till 6am for the past 2 or 3 days and it feels kinda nice. It's peaceful and quiet, no rowdy fights/screams/crying whatsoever. Younger sibs can get really annoying sometimes. I should just be a nocturnal animal. I work better at night anyway.
It's almost confirmed that Henrik Larsson's gonna leave Barca after the world cup and I've been kinda depressed ever since I saw the news. I mean, I always knew it was going to happen, but after actually seeing the article on Aftonbladet, the Swedish newspaper (I can read Swedish! Haha I wish.), the news is really starting to sink in. It just seems more real now, now that it's in black and white. I've only watched him play probably 6 or 7 times, which is really, really pathetic, if you think about it. And now 6 months is all I have left. God knows when I'll get cable. If ever. I wish Channel i hadn't closed down. I know the tv programmes on that channel were really sucky and all, but they used to show Barca matches almost every Sunday morning. And they showed Wuthering Heights.
I don't know if you guys realise it, but we have like only ONE free-to-air channel that shows English dramas/movies whatever?? Channel News Asia doesn't count, and Central doesn't count as well, coz it shows cartoons and indian stuff during the day. So essentially, all those pitiful people out there who don't have cable survive on ONE English channel. Hah. That's really great for the Speak Good English Movement.
I still can't believe there are 2 Chinese channels (channel 8 and U), and only ONE pathetic English one. Maybe I should try brushing up on my Chinese. Hah. I don't think I'll ever be THAT desperate. Plus even when I DO watch Ch dramas, I always read the Eng subs anyway. I don't even bother trying to listen out for the Chinese. No wonder my Chinese never improves.
