What can I say?? I always felt there could be some kinda jinx if I watched their recent games, so this time throughout the World Cup I didn't really try to catch them live at all... of course, the 2000 experience was so really hurtful that I could never forget what a huge letdown it was.

We all enjoyed the movie, and now I'm thinking whether I should go see it the 2nd time ( Read more... )

Last night I worked overtime at office to past 1am, exhausted. Monica stayed around too, watching Wimbledon live... I managed to get the main part of the task covered, and then I got home at a quarter to 2am to get ready for the 2:45am kickoff of Portugal-Holland ( Read more... )

Life at work has been taking over, and I feel quite exhausted now. But one thing to be happy about it that my scheme/dream came true when it comes to Euro 2004 semi-finals. All of them!! Out!! Heading home!! England, France, Sweden + Denmark, arrivederci yo!!!! *hurray hurray hurray*
