I'll be dancing, along with Amanda Cheang aka Dance Queen, and also Stephrene, Serene, and many other senior dancers who are so damn good! Ticket sales are really HOT so..feel free to contact me for tickets. =)

Slumber Party


It was dinner at Wisma food court before hanging out in town while waiting for Baoxin to join us after her Korean class. Took a long time to decide where to go before taking a bus down to Holland V for drinks. Was supposed to go Eski Bar but the place was too smoky and we ended up at Breko with loads of desserts and drinks. I had yet another sinful chocolate cake with vanilla icecream. No lava chocolate flowing out from the cake again (booo..) but it was quite good, good enough for the price of 5 plus I guess.

Had a wonderful time chilling out till the cafe closes at 12.45pm. We had the comfy sofa all to ourselves and seriously, I think we're a very noisy bunch of girls haha. All the way from the food court to the bus stop (where we had many people looking at us when Baorong was showing us how to bargin with a Thai accent) to my house. The next morning my sister complained that she woke up in the middle of her sleep a few times because we were too noisy. And that's serious, because my sister's a heavy sleeper haha. Anyway that whole night, or rather morning, was spent laughing so hard, gossiping, non-stop talking and maybe a little screaming at Baoxin to get her to stop her ghost stories.


Us, all washed up with no make-up, messy hair, old shirts to sleep in and specs! And that's my baby brother Jonathan, who was enjoying the attention from the girls and has a terrible habit of going to bed very late at night.

I had such an amazing night. Thank you so much girls. I've been looking forward to such a gathering since forever (after the last sleepover at Mich's..don't know how many years ago), finally it materialised, and with all that pouring of souls and drama plus unnecessary horror from our new found storyteller Miss Baoxin..all the way till freaking 6am (!!!?!), it just made me realise how thankful I am to have you 6 darlings with me. We could have talked and laughed all the way till it was time for me to leave for work..

We have to do this again in December, when I am not working definitely. I just survived 2 hours of work because I was fully occupied, somehow I have this feeling I'd be struggling so badly after lunch. Just 1.5 hrs of sleep is insane haha. But it was all worth it. =) I wish my dear Betty and Ness a very safe flight back to Australia on Saturday.

I want my boyfriend...I miss him very much.

Back from dance in school, ate a little dinner before indulging in some Grey's Anatomy again. I'm at Season 2 now! Can only afford to watch 1 episode every night, and I don't even have time to watch on some nights when I come home late. It is totally addictive..and I can't wait to watch the next 20 episodes! Grey's rocks my world, now that Tian's away.

This is a very hectic week for me, every day and night is full. What's up tomorrow? Slumber Party!!!

Feeling studious

My timetable for next semester is finally out. Let's see..

Monday 8am - 6pm with one 3-hr lab and one 4-hr lab, with no break in between. And labs have to be on Monday, I feel like fainting already. Together with the Monday blues, I think I'm going to be damn sian every Monday.

Tuesday 8am - 5pm. 5 lectures back to back, I shall not fall asleep in any of them!

Wednesday 8am - 1pm, followed by dance at 4pm. Maybe I can schedule tuition after dance like last sem. I love Wednesdays..short and sweet.

Thursday 8am - 6pm, with a 4-hr break between 12pm to 4pm. Screwed up timetable..but guess this is where I can fit an arts gem in.

Friday 8am - 4pm. Only 3 lectures with 2-hr breaks in between, quite a relaxing day. As usual, we love Fridays.

I wonder if the year 2s from other faculties have such tight timetables like ours. I must mention that university is out to kill us, by not giving us any lunch breaks in between classes. I'm going to get slimmer (yay!), maybe by surviving on energy bars while walking to the next lecture hall or tutorial room. But seriously! It's like 8am-10am, 10am-12pm, 12pm-2pm, 2pm-4pm schedule! No need to eat lunch eh? Look at Monday, Organic Chem lab is from 11am - 2pm, followed immediately by Biochem lab from 2pm - 6pm. Haiz, I shall faint in the lab.

Another problem that comes with such a packed timetable is that I would have very limited choices of GEMs or Breadths that actually fit my schedule. Hopefully I'm lucky and some module that I'm interested in would fit my timetable. I'm going to be a very tired girl, no more dressing up for school (guess the hype is gone after Year 1), no more meeting Tian on weekdays I foresee (sighhh..this is miserable) and I guess I really should not commit to any more tuition assignments. I know peers who have 4 tuition assignments and I was so tempted to take in a 4th student (JC..good pay..and it's Physics and Maths, both I just did last year so I think I should be fine teaching these subjects), thinking that if they can cope, so can I. In the end I doubted my ability and also considered my other commitments to dance, squash, boyfriend and family, I let it go.

I really don't know if I hate school or love school now. Timetable's very dreadful but I can't wait to get down to it, faster finish off this sem with a good CAP and see if I am still young and pretty after going through this painful process haha. And I'm getting bored of work so I can't wait for my last day this Friday, after which I can afford to sleep till 1pm everyday again and perhaps head down to Sentosa a few times.

Semester 3 goals:
1. Wake up punctually for school at 8am EVERYDAY and no cab rides are allowed because they're so expensive now and I'm poor. (wah die..)
2. Try to do 6 modules and pull CAP up to 4.2.
3. Save money
4. Get an internship during the December holidays

That should be it for now, and I should really get started on organic chem revision. Rule No. 1 - stop being lazy!

RGS 404 (2002)

A mini reunion at Wheelock Place's Fish & Co. all thanks to our organisers Huifang, Ruth and Wanping!

Our formal class photo..
2nd row from the left: Me, Chinyee, Livia, Siying, Meimei and Huifang
1st from from the left: Michelle Lee, Yixin, Michelle Ang, Ruth and Wanping

Presenting the Mugger Club of 404, and Huifang was the Secretary. We're missing Baorong here who's not back from Turkey to attend this gathering, but Baorong was definitely the President of the Club and I seriously forgot my role. I wonder how come my O level results were so poor when I was a proud member of the Mugger Club. Yixin also reminded me that Baorong and I used to eat apples and sandwiches in class during recess so that we could use the time to mug in class. I bet we had a hard time hiding from the prefects haha. Then I ought to thank Baorong who helped me to lose weight. =p

Me, Chinyee, Meimei and Wanping

RGS 101/201 (1999-2000) and 304/404 (2001-2002)
Basically, we were classmates for 4 years! Hehe I didn't even realise..

Yixin and I. Just the 2 Singaporean 404ians in NUS Engineering, Yixin's doing ISE and me BIE. Lu Bo's the other 404ian in NUS Engin..dean's lister if I'm not wrong.

Well, if you heard some weird singing along Wheelock Place last night, that would be the crazy RGS girls of 404 singing the RGS school song...

Followed (of course) by our famous RGS Spirit cheer (and Huifang did the hand sign "S"..), yes, along Orchard Road. I was laughing so hard ok..can't believe we're actually doing this as a 'closure' to our reunion. Whose crazy idea was it again? Haha as you can tell, we're a very patriotic bunch of RGS girls here..who got high on seafood..somehow =)

Movie Bites

Caught Superman Returns sometime last week with the guys and Mich and I enjoyed it very much! Somehow I think newspaper reviews are not accurate when it comes to these blockbusters. And before I watched the show someone told me it's not nice too, was it Jamie? I can't remember haha, to the point that I was ok giving the movie a miss. But in the end we caught it and I got to know the character Superman more. Before this I don't remember watching any Superman movies, don't read comics so basically, Superman is nothing but a man with super powers to me. No face to the name, I might have seen the previous Superman actors in papers especially the past Christopher Reeve but somehow I don't recollect his face. But then I saw Brandon Routh, first it was his eyes. Then his look in those rimmed specs..think I can't stop telling Tian how cute he was. Damn good looking la..I couldn't stop gushing over him, even after the show. Just everything about his face and body is perfect don't you think? So handsome..

And I don't know why Tian thinks Kate Bosworth is not very pretty, because I think she is! Not the supermodel kind of hot but I think she looks good. And the show might be a little long, but definitely not too draggy..I don't see how they can cut any scene to make the movie shorter, or else the movie might be very disjointed. So now I know that Superman is a man who almost cannot die, and unlike Spiderman, he reveals his face to the world. (I think everytime he shows his face to the people and media when he saves somebody..like he's enjoying all the attention from the world..is not too right somehow. Because superheros are supposed to be courageous and humble right? Like spiderman who hides behind a mask. So why does Superman act so proud of his abilities and stand there looking back at everyone who's busy taking photos of him?)

Oh why does Superman wear his underwear out? Tian doesn't know too. So strange, who designed the costume?! Anyway Jamie! If you're reading this, get a Superman 'Save Me' Junk Food Tee from States can? Must be Size S, blue colour and below S$50. If above 50 bucks then nvm la..I shall wait for it to arrive in local stores, if it does come. Anyway woman, you better take care in States, do not walk out of your house alone, at night especially, I don't think it's safe. My colleagues and bosses told me New York is very dangerous, try not to go out at night, and never go to the Bronx area, people there carry guns (?!!!). I got a shock when I heard that, so be careful, don't cross over to the wrong lane - that's what my boss said too, one lane may be safe but the other lane right across it may be danger zone. So scary..Ricky's sister is so brave.

Then tonight we caught Pirates of the Carribean - Dead's Man Chest at Suntec after a little shopping with Tian. (Yes I finally got to shop after a whole week of work and everywhere's having sale but that's another story) I liked the movie too, not crazy about it but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I did laugh at some parts and I like Johnny Depp a lot, I think I enjoyed every movie he acted in, cos he's good. And I liked the special effects, all the gory faces, yucky tentacles on the weird creature's face - they look so damn ugly man. Didn't think this movie is very much about the story plot, thought it was more about the visual effects and the fighting and teasing, until the 'impactful' ending which made Tian grab my arm harder. Eh, the problem with me is that I have short term memory I think. I don't remember movies that I've watched very well, and I have to admit that I don't remember what The Curse of the Black Pearl was about. I even forgot that the monkey was an undead until Sparrow said it in the movie and used it for shooting. So ehh, I didn't know that the man who appeared at the end of the movie was the previous captain of the Black Pearl, who was supposed to be dead then now how come he's alive I have no idea. But the ending got Tian very excited.

And I think Keira Knightley looked very good in the first few scenes when she was in the dress and locked up in prison. However when her face has brown dirty makeup on, she doesn't look pretty anymore. So maybe it's the make-up, not her features. But anyhow, she still looks stunning on the red carpet and in pictures on magazines and newspapers. Oh I must mention the scene of her throwing temper at the guys who were busy fighting among one another is so uncalled for. She's supposed to be a courageous character and be able to fight well, then why was she acting cute and throwing sand?? And where's Keira Knightley from? Her accent is so different from the others, can be sexy at times yes, and maybe that's what the directors dig about her, but still, sound a little funny sometimes.

Anyway I cannot wait for The Lake House! Sandra Bullock, Keanu Reeves..what more can I ask for..I love them both!! Sandra Bullock rocks ok..I love her look, her whole style. And it's going to be such a romantic show..27 July!

I want to get a little brown..it's just healthier-looking

And a fellow dancer told me today that I look darker!! We have not met since end May and she made the comment based on the colour of my face, and said before this I was really fair. Did I become more tan??! Just the other day, a colleague told me I went to Redang for nothing because I didn't get a tan at all! I'm confused..but I know my upper arms and thighs are definitely darker, just that no one can see the tan because I'm wearing long pants and sleeved tops all the time these days.

Anyway I shall continue this tanning thing, I've become more comfortable with walking around in a bikini since the Redang trip and now that the colour of my arms and thighs are different from the colour of my body and lower legs, I see the need to get a uniform colour. Also, I like the sun a little more now though sometimes it is still too glaring for the eyes when lying in the sun. Problem now is that I don't live in a condo with a pool and I don't own membership to clubs with pools. I have not stepped into a public swimming pool in a zillion years and Sentosa just seems so far. How? Tsk. I need my own beach.

Eurotrip 2006

Day 4 - Paris, France

Bonjour! We arrived in Paris at about 9am at Gare du Nord. I felt so intimidated and lost upon arrival because it finally hit me that there is a major language barrier here. Gare du Nord was rather empty in the morning, and we had to figure out how the Metro works so that we can get to our hotel. Enduring the weight of our backpacks, we were walking to and fro the underground for so long till we finally found the ticket booth. Took some time to decide what type of Paris Visite Pass to get and after making some mental calculations (we were so cost-conscious), we ended up getting the 2-day pass for zone 1-3 which costs 27.40 euros. We armed ourselves with the very important rail map of Paris before heading to Garden Hotel, located near the metro station called Voltaire. Oh yes, the Metro map is much more complicated than the Tube map, but after some time everything becomes so easy once you have figured out how the Metro works. I love these trains in Europe, they make sightseeing so easy and convenient, and the Paris Tourisme map that we got was just the right size, with the different lines so nicely colour-coded and tourist attractions in Paris are highlighted for us - Maps rule!

We found the Garden Hotel on Hostelworld.com, it was a budget hotel which cost us 27.50 euros/night without breakfast for a 2 bed private room. We were not willing to pay 3 euros more for breakfast. The directions given to us by Hostelworld were very clear and we found Garden Hotel effortlessly, together with some help from the friendly locals. Thank God for clear road names in Paris too. The room was not ready when we arrived so we deposited our bags at the reception, made payment for the rooms, freshened up a little before setting off to Musee du Louvre. I must mention that the aroma from bakeries in France smells so good (not theh Breadtalk smell, this one is authentic man), it is really hard to resist the urge to buy some delicious quiche or buns. And the location of our hotel is so ideal, there's a patisserie located a few steps away from our hotel! I was so excited, because I could survive on bread all day! So we had a quiche for breakfast (2 euros), note it's one quiche shared between the 2 of us. So pitiful right, actually Tian's very poor thing, if not for me who's the one on a tight budget, he can actually live very well in Europe, having perhaps 3 quiches to himself for breakfast. Sorry dear...

Musee de Louvre is Huge, and I can't believe that I'm actually seeing the glass pyramids, not in the movies, not on pictures, but right in front of me. This whole experience was so surreal. I finally woke up from dreamland and realize that yes, I am standing in Paris, right in front of the Louvre, right where Tom Hanks was standing when he was trying to crack the Da Vinci Code, and I am with nobody else but the love of my life. I could never have experienced this dream come true without Tian. If we make it, my dream is to come back to France for our honeymoon, together with many other countries - yea I'm quite greedy haha.


I must mention how suaku Tian and I were at this point of time. The land that the musee covered is huge, and somehow we thought that the entrance is under one of the buildings so we walked quite a bit, checking out the place and looking out for a long queue, before I finally asked another tourist and found out that the entrance was located at the biggest pyramid in the middle.

Finally! We found the entrance!

So silly, we should have remembered that Tom Hanks entered the Louvre from the foot of the glass pyramid in the movie, somehow maybe Tian and I was still lagging from the long coach ride hence the blurness haha. The queue into the Louvre was not long at all, snapped a few pictures before entering the pyramid. Ticket booths were located below the escalator and this was tourist haven. Tickets cost 8.50 euros/person.

And we're finally in..

Tian and I took about 3-4 hours in the Louvre and we didn't manage to cover every single room in the gigantic musee. I think it's impossible really, unless you are a real musee buff and you are willing to spend a whole day at the Louvre. We were exhausted after walking for so long, hence we gave up covering the whole of Louvre. Perhaps we did not have a good lunch, and our sleep on the coach the night before was bad too, or else we might be strong enough to last up to 5 hours in the Lourve, slow and steadily haha.

The paintings in the Louvre lived up to their reputations. They were all so unique and beautiful, some were so massive, I really wonder how it was possible to create such masterpieces like them, and can't imagine how talented the artists must be. Yes the Mona Lisa is a small painting, but intriguing nonetheless. It is protected by a glass panel and another a barrier such that visitors have to admire it from a distance away. No photography is allowed in some of the galleries of the Louvre, like the one the Mona Lisa is displayed in, and in addition, there are 2 security guards stationed at both ends of the glass panel. It can be quite meaningless walking around the Louvre without an audio guide. Especially for people like myself, who are not very familiar with stories from the Bible, histories of different nations and civilizations, and the art of paintings, it was hard to fully appreciate everything that I saw in the Louvre. For example, it was not sufficient to just look at a painting and say that it is beautiful. There is a need to recognize how the painting is painted such that it shows how brilliant the artist is and hence making him and his works famous. Also, there is a need to know what is illustrated in the painting, for example, who is Mona Lisa, a scene from Les Miserables depicting the French Revolution etc.


Everywhere we went, Tian and I decided to save money on audio guides. What I did was to try to follow (and eavesdrops on) different groups of tourists who have their own guides to tell them more about certain famous paintings in the Louvre. Of course the guides cannot talk in detail about every single artwork in the musee as tours have schedules to follow so they move around the musee quite quickly and the tourists in the group would not be able to look at every single painting in each room. So most of the time, Tian and I walked around the Louvre without a guide and more or less clueless of what we were looking at. Quite sad. Nonetheless, my Louvre experience was an eye opener and I saw many paintings and sculptures which are so beautiful, they left me in awe. Everyone should visit the Louvre though you may not understand art like myself. This architecture of the old palace is magnificent and all the treasures of art kept in this musee will blow you away. I came out from the glass pyramid tired but felt accomplished and happy.

Familiar scene from The Da Vinci Code? Is this the location where Mary Magdalene was buried?


More photo-taking outside the Louvre before taking a rest at the fountain. I love resting and basically sitting down and admiring the scenery in Europe. I love taking things slow, breathing in the air which actually smells different from that in Singapore, and watching people around me lazing under the sun.

I continued munching on my cornflakes, apple cinnamon flakes with yogurt-coated flakes from Marks and Spencer, my all-time favourite. Oh I bought this when we came across Marks and Spencer in London at St Paul's, I was so excited to do some supermarket shopping! Alas, we were on a budget trip hence no splurging of wealth on food. Tian was so kind to let me spend so money on yogurt instead of chips which he wanted. I love you so much dear. He's always giving in to me =) And we had a romantic time resting in the backyard garden of St Paul's Cathedral with my favourite Marks and Spencer apple cinnamon cornflakes with blueberry yogurt!

Ok back to Paris. We examined our map of Paris and realized that the path from Musee du Louvre leads to Arc de Triomphe. It's in a straight line! So we started on a slow stroll where we came to the Tuileries. Jardin des Tuileries is a garden in front of the Louvre.

One major difference which my cousin also pointed out to me earlier, is that French gardens are perfectly manicured, whereas gardens in London are more natural, with the bushes and trees looking like how they should be in a natural environment. The bushes in Jardin des Tuileries are all of the same shape and height, and instead of a huge lake, there is a huge man-made fountain, with few small ducks swimming in it. Not as beautiful as St James Park. But I saw something new.


Kids were playing with miniature sail boats in the fountain! Interesting =) And also, we noticed a lot of people around us having ice cream and found the ice cream cart near the fountain. We're supposed to be on a very tight budget but somehow we succumbed to our temptations and bought a double scoop ice cream, white chocolate and chocolate flavours for 3.50 euros.

(Imagine buying ice cream from one of the Orchard Road ice cream man for S$7. Never have ice cream in Paris.) The white chocolate was very nice. We watched the kids steer their boats for a while and soaked in the atmosphere and fresh air in the jardin before we continue our stroll towards Arc de Triomphe.

We then came to Avenue des Champs-Elysees. We all know this is a very famous shopping belt in Paris. But I didn't know the first half of the 'avenue' is lined with trees but no shops!

Tian and I thought we were walking the wrong way but the map showed clearly that we were on the right path which was Avenue des Champs-Elysees. So of course we played safe and I approached a local to ask where the shopping malls were. And indeed, it was straight ahead, problem is, the whole road was damn long, and Tian and I were so tired and hungry from all the walking (and lack of food).

And finally we reach the malls.

Eh, I don't know why it is so famous. Nothing much I thought, somehow I felt that the malls in Italy which carry the big international brand names are more grand. Well I did walk into Gap and some nice sweaters were on sale but those that I fancied were out of sizes. But there were not many shops that I know of, so Champs-Elysees is perhaps shopping haven for the rich tai-tais but not a poor backpacker. Well I did see this huge store, and a few Asian tourists carrying LV bags.

I didn't know the prices of LV and Gucci bags are significantly lower in Europe or else I might have splurged on this little handbag that I like very much.

By now, Tian and I were starving after all that exercise. We surveyed quite a few stalls before settling for a take-away sandwich meal each. Thing is there are so many cafes selling sandwiches such that you really won't know which one to choose, and we could only judge by the size and filling of the sandwiches, and also the prices. So we had our humble dinner by the road side, as we watched the Parisians chill out at cafes, some were seated along the road watching people go past and there was this cranky group of young punks walking down the streets in weird costumes.

You can easily see the Arc from Avenue des Champs-Elysees.


It is a majestic and huge triumphal arch decorated by sculptures and inscriptions, which must be related to periods in French history such as the Revolution.

Entrance fee was 5 euros/person, and we made our way up to the museum, then the platform roof, climbing 284 steps.

Everyone should go up to the platform roof. The view up here and the view from the Eiffel Tower is different because of the location. "The Arc de Triomphe stands on Paris's main east-west axis which links the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel - near the Palais du Louvre -, the Tuileries gardens, the obelisk on Place de la Concorde, the Avenue des Champs-Elysees...", that's why I said above that Tian and I walked in a straight line all the way from the Louvre to the Arc. Another thing very cool about the position of the Arc is that "It stands in the centre of the Place de I'Etoile, a vast circular square...which owes its name to the layout of twelve avenues that radiate out from it." And the picture below shows one avenue, the famous Avenue des Champs-Elysees.
View of the Eiffel Tower from the Arc.

I did not want to waste the evening and thought of visiting the Eiffel Tower but Tian was against it because he thought it was too late and the Eiffel Tower was not nearby. So I made the tired boy wait for about 2 hours at the Arc for the sun to set, because I wanted to see the Arc at night and also the Paris night lights. We waited for so so long, not knowing that it would only start to get dark in Paris at about 9pm. And as night fell, it got chilly up on the platform roof. The streets lighted up, followed by the Eiffel Tower and the tourists up on the Arc got excited. The view of Paris from Arc de Triomphe was awesome.

The Eiffel Tower lighted up as the sun set and the wind blew stronger.

And it finally turned dark..

Eiffel Tower & Me, at night.

This picture was taken by some fellow Singaporeans whom we met at the Arc. Speaking of Uniquely Singapore, it was so easy to identify one of us in a foreign land, and nope, it wasn't the Singlish. We were not even speaking 'lahs' and 'lohs'. We could identify ourselves with a uniquely Singaporean accent! They were a mixed group, guys from NUS engineering and some NTU girls. What a small world =) For a moment, I felt at home in this foreign city. We chatted a little with them and got some tips on Nice before bidding goodbye.

By the time we returned to our hotel, it was about 11pm. The streets near our hotel were empty and quiet, except for a restaurant right across our hotel which was packed with people. Retrieved our bags from the reception and walked up to our room. I was so excited to see how the rooms are like, and I was so happy when I saw the state of the room! I was prepared for a worse situation, because some budget hotels might be very dilapidated but look at the room! What a nice and simple blue room!

It was definitely decent enough for me, I was on a budget trip anyway, so I wasn't expecting any luxury. As long as the sheets and the toilet are clean, I'm happy.

Towels and soap were provided too, and there's a television in our room. Guess what I liked the most was the mini balcony from where I can look down at the restaurant.

It's like the typical Romeo and Juliet balcony and I told Tian that he could go down and sing to me while I stand at the balcony. (Of course he didn't =p) My complaints for this budget hotel would be the shower. Bathing at night was no problem and hot water was available. However, hot water was not available in the morning for shower and the hotel guy explained that there were too many people showering at one time and hence the unreliable source of hot water. Anyway it was quite a painful experience trying to shower my hair in ice-cold water because my hands were numb and it felt like a brain freeze. Another minor issue was 2 out of 3 power sockets did not work hence I had to unpluck the television from the socket to charge my camera battery. I give Garden Hotel 3 out of 5 stars! I loved the room and I definitely had a good night sleep.

Our weekend getaway

Tian, Roy, Mich, Yanli and I are off to Pulau Redang tonight! Major sun-tanning session awaits..

Roy's 22nd with the World Cup gang

After meeting the girls on Tuesday, I went to Tian's place for our usual World Cup gathering with the guys. It was the day Germany lost, but it was also the day Roy turned 22.


Happy 22nd Birthday!
Roy and Mich. That was the first day Mich put on her braces. A very nice blue colour!

From top left: Tian, Yanli, William, Chester and Joel. From bottom left: Me, Roy and Michelle.

The funny-face shot that Mich asked for. The guys obviously don't have funny faces.

The birthday boy who finally got into NUS Med. He made his birthday wish and blew out the candles on the Awfully Chocolate cake.

We entertained ourselves with some funny videos from Mr Brown which William recommended. Tian laughed so hard till he teared. Then we indulged in our usual pre-match Star Wars battle while waiting for Germany vs Italy at 3am.
