'A simple through ball towards Torres, only Lahm stands in the way...but Torres uses his body to put hold the challenge against Lahm..he gets the ball, Lehmann comes out and Torres plays a cheeky chip and the ball bounces in the empty net for a Spain GOAL!!!'
60 mins of pure entertainment and wonderful football later...
'With less than 30 seconds remaining, we have a throw for the Spaniards...the ball is cleared away by Ramos and the whistle goes! SPAIN are the European Champion!!!'
Well, u now can guess my mood for the rest of the week....without England in Euro 2008, it sure was much better watching....Holland, Portugal, Italy, France were all knocked out before the semis and only Germany stands in the way for a 44 year wait for a trophy...Spain was the team i was supporting without England and Gerrard....with Torres, Casillas, Villa, Sergio Ramos and Fabregas all playing in the same team...it's hard to bet against them winning....at least, they didn't let me down as England would always do...getting into the final was a tough route, facing Italy and Russia...had we faced the Netherlands, it could be a total different story....but it was a much better Euro than the previous one....Greece were long gone, Turkey and Croatia were the surprise package, France was crap, Holland was just unlucky but Spain have proven they were the underachievers no more....
Gracias Torres!! VIVA ESPANOL!!!!

You are hereby required under Section 10 of the Enlistment Act (Cap 93), to report for enlistment on 11 Jul 2008 (Fri) at 9.00am to 4th Battalion Singapore Infantry Regiment (4 SIR)
well, tat's the letter i got regarding my enlistment for Full-time National Service...wasn't really expecting to get into infantry, the frontline of national defence...but i can't really choose where i want to go....just hoping finish serving these 2yrs.that all guys have to undergo, somehow....it's 2 long yrs tat we have to give the government and to protect the safety of all u ppl living in s'pore...so i guess it's kinda a glory to serve the nation....so with tat coming, i am quitting work from suki at the end of the mth, and instead of shouting 'irashaimasen', i will be shouting 'Yes Sir', 'No, Sir' for the next 2 yrs....i dun know how i am gonna survive in the army....slping late, waking early, bathing once every 2-3 days....thinking bout it makes me feel bored....for the next few weeks till enlistment, i shall enjoy life first but not forgetting to go train a little....stamina is my weakest link....if there's alot of running, i guess i be doomed.....for the time being, i shall juz do wat i can to enjoy before it begins....
I guess the next 2 years will serve as a wake up call for me to freshen up my mind and decide on what i should do.
