A brilliant start
EURO 2008, one week into it, we've seen the evolution of modern soccer move one notch higher. No longer is one man able to terrorise defences and change the course of the game. Football is about 11 men as 1, not a one man show. It is evident that teams with the strongest teamwork do better than teams which have star players and tend to rely on them. So far, Portugal, Spain and Netherlands have been really impressive, the Portugese defeating the Czech and the Turks by decent scorelines, Spain with a 4-1 rout of Russia, and the Dutch, oh my. 3-0 over world champs Italy and just this morning, 4-1 over 2006 WC losing finalists France. Which justified why i stuck to the Dutch for as long as i watched soccer. Hopefully they'll be able to go all the way. In the modern game now, he who hesitates loses. It only takes 15 secs for an attack from one end of the pith to the other. That's like how fast it takes to type 2 sentences. Such is the expectations nowadays.
Weekdays have never been this busy. Normally lunch hours would be time to catch forty winks at the rest area, but now it's continuous working/eating/working/EURO/msn-ing yak yak yak. Time passes super quick, and the IT fair's also under way le. Mid june signifies the time for application of hostel/uni admin matters, and gotta take note of the dates to apply. I realise im still abit playful and boyish at heart. ahha. neither good nor bad, but the responsibilities of an adult will come fast and i must be ready for it.
August beckons. When it comes, a new chapter unfolds..

Singapore 3 Uzbekistan 7 - Simply, we're not that good.
LOL. haven't had time to blog about this episode yet. wah i was treated to one of the more entertaining scoreline matches, yet on 2nd Jun it was not to be our night. We turned up in red, the scoreline reflected red on our report cards, the Singapore defence saw red bulls charging at them like they've just drank Red Bull, outplayed, outmuscled, outgunned, outfought, outwitted, outshoned, outmatched, outpaced, haha i duno wat other words to describe. Goal 2010 might seem closer for us now, but so close, yet so far. Reality check. Ding.
Work has been busy thus far, with new temps joining us coming from various univerisities and we the slightly more senior birds (even though the new fellas are mostly older than us) do show them the ropes abit. They are Phillip, Josephine, Lester, Allen, Forest, Samson, Yuezhu and Li Yuan, all in tertiary education already, some in their first year, some in their second.
As June kicks off, it's time for KT the sleepyhead to wake up from his slumber... it's time for EURO 2008! More sleepless nights, can expect to go to work with half eyes open, more drama. By the end of june it'll mark the end of my 3rd and final month at UOB... and transition into uni life. There is a lot to learn, be it hard or soft skills, but like i said, i'l make it somehow. To move on is inevitable, time does not stop just for you, gotta keep up wif the pace. Anyway, i'm still Dutch for this EURO, even as their squad this year ain't at their best. Loyal fan k. haha...
