// World cup changes lives.

After today's Ecuador vs. Costa Rica match, I swear I am NEVER going to watch the World Cup with my mother ever again.

Same goes for my brother as well.

She placed a $50 bet on Ecuador to win by 1-0, giving half ball to Costa Rica, so she was very uptight while watching the match. She practically wailed (YES, WAILED) every time a Costa Rica player touched the ball and my brother immediately followed suit. So you can imagine the trauma I had to go through.

My maid also another champion. Halfway mopping floor can abandon everything and stare at the TV in full concentration. I haven't seen such an intense look on her face ever since she first learned how to iron clothes.

Anyway it was 3-0 to Ecuador. Quite an exciting match I must say, even though I was hiding behind My Best Friend's Girl by Dorothy Koomson most of the time. The atmosphere at home, needless to say, was stupendous, with loud shrieks from my mother and brother every five seconds.

Oh ma god. My champion maid is now roomless because her bedroom door locked itself and now she can't get in. She had to get this really long pole used for taking clothes which are hanging from a high place, opened her bedroom window and used one end of the pole to try to unlock the door. And nothing worked, not even when she used a screw driver to practically dismantle the lock infront. Damn damn funny I tell you.

I think I'm going to get a fair share of the money my mother just won. She finally listened to my wise advice as she learnt her lesson after ignoring me initially to bet on Spain instead of Ukraine for yesterday's match and she lost a hundred bucks due to that unnecessary mistake. My dad bet 2-0 to Eucador so since the score's much higher than his expectations he gets cash too. Wheee.

OMG I almost forgot to talk about the Germany vs. Poland match. Bloody hell I actually deprived myself of sleep and woke up on the dot (Thanks ZY for the wake-up call!) at 2.45am to watch Germany struggle and blunder their way through for a good 90 minutes, excluding stoppage time. Under performance to the max. Though their defense was waaay better than their match against Costa Rica.

Anyways the last bit was really painful to watch when Miroslav Klose's header hit the Poland crossbar and STUPID MICHAEL BALLACK (zomg he's a freaking retard lah the whole game keep lingering in midfield, rendering himself almost completely useless) tried doing a rebound which was really supposed to have gotten in but it hit the crossbar AGAIN. I couldn't make any loud noises because it was freaking 4.30am and doing anything but sleeping at that time is considered illegal by my parents so I could only curse silently. Bahh.

Yeah and as y'all already know, Oliver Neuville saved the day. At the 91st minute omg what a relief. He looks really cute together with David Odonkor, by the way. Both short and loveable and heroes of that match. (x


Hi Ollie you finally got past the annoying Artur Boruc and made my staying up at some ungodly hour worthwhile. Well done.


David Odonkor!! Loved your cross for Ollie, although you can't beat...


PHILIPP LAHM!!!

Zomg he's really my hero okay. ANOTHER SHORT PERSON GOD I LOVE SMALL PEOPLE. :D He's far by the most all-rounded player in the team so far, playing well in defense as well as attack. His crosses own lah! Always ready at the wing, he's earned the Budweiser Man of the Match honours. Teehee.

Alright I'm off to catch the England vs. Trinidad & Tobago match now. Screw the Common Tests, I've caught the World Cup fever and there ain't gonna be a cure lest Germany, Czeh Republic or Spain get kicked out of the top 16.
