It's 3am on friday 20th June (singapore time). The alarm clock rang, but I was too lazy to get up. I would just catch the second half, I thought. I slept, and made a dream about betting... weird dream, but it made me remember about the quarter-final match between germany and portugal.
I was rather irritated when I learnt that I would have to watch the euro 2008 online as only cable tv broadcasted the match :(
cable tv... i missed US at this time... it would be afternoon so I would not have to cut my sleep short and I wouldn't have to settle for online tv...
anyway, the match was entertaining with 5 goals. 3 of them were through headers!!!
My bet was on Portugal... Thankfully, I kept my money where it belonged and did not bet.
Germany3-2 Portugal FT
Germany was right on target!
Off the field...
I just read from a blog that a teacher from zhss, mr kelvin tan passed away... I'm not sure how old he was, but he was YOUNG! And from the days in zhss, he came across as someone who's healthy and fit (likes working-out type of guy). As it turned out, he had a liver infection and delayed his treatment so as to be there for his students for Mid-year.
I was shocked by his sudden death, but deeply moved by his commitment as a teacher.
I guess it's just another reminder of how fragile life can be.

I'm back at Spore!!! =P
The day after I reached, Bangkok trip was awaiting. Even before I managed to shrug off the jet-lag, I had to board another plane to another city.
Overall, Bangkok was alright. It was hot and humid... duh! What was I expecting???
Anyway, we visited temples, floating market, and some shopping areas. The things were not as cheaply priced as I thought. Nonetheless, we still bought some clothes and souvenirs.
Back to Singapore and fatigue was bugging me down. It held me back from going out. I was soooo tired that I stayed at home for 2 days.
Then, it time to check out the great singapore sale (GSS).
Last night, meet up with some of 4e1 people. The guys or shall I say the NS guys had nothing to say except NS stuffs -.- Nonetheless, it was nice to meet them again after a year! We at Fish&Co. I had seafood platter and shared it with Jac and Yaowen. Then we went to Giraffe, restaurant and bar. Initially, I thought they wanted to go to a pub, and I would definitely not go there (Zhi forbid me to go there too. hehe...) But the "pub" turned out to be a restaurant cum bar. So jac and I decided to join them for a little while. We ordered juices, a very expensive juice, and we chit chat for a while. Just 20 min past nine, we bid our goodbye to our NS guys and headed for PS. However, almost all the shops were closing for the day, so we walked for abour 15 mins and headed home. I was tired, but felt happy to meet up with my ex-classmates!!! But I didn't bring my camera -.-
while I'm happy to meet my family and friends, i still miss zhi >.< I wish he was here!!!
