I'm happy! Yest I gotta watch WORLDCUP LIVE at Chijmes! After so many rounds of worldcup, this is e official one that i finally watched! It was a match of Argentina vs Germany at 10pm. Even though we were slightly late with no place to sit down and we got slightly blocked by a tree in e middle of nowhere, we didn't miss out the 1st goal from Germany.
It's really different to be watching it LIVE than hearing news or updates from pple saying how good or lousy those players were. Germany was so gd in terms of team spirit esp. at the goal area. When Argentina's goalkeeper managed to defend a player, the other Germany player would just smoothly kick in the ball right into the goal from another side.
1st half of the game was a score of 0 vs 1. During the short break, Jean and I thought we should find a gd place to really sit down and watch instead of standing around breathing in 2nd hand smoke, feeling thirsty, perspiring like crazy and legs aching after a long day. But Chijmes was damn crowded! Jean quickly ordered a 100plus to quench her thirst before we we went to the basement to check out for seats. We went to the bar next to Harry's and decided to order some drinks at Bobby's.
Who knows the bar tenders didn't have time to entertain us at all!! After waiting for like 15mins, we decided to go to the front and sit on the floor to watch instead. The tv screen is much smaller now as compared to the big screen (1st pic above) outside but we were more comfortable in the air-conditioned place and e sound is so much clearer. Machiam sitting in a living room at home with many Germany fans around us.
Towards the end of the game, the result was 0 vs 4! This match was really exciting and I got Jean excited too cos she's not really into worldcup and stuffs. Upon the 3rd goal, we knew that Germany would definitely make it to the semi-finals cos of the timings and Argentina wasn't performing!! :( Argentina's fan must be damn sad and guess what... that fella told me he just lose sgd2k over this. -.-'''
