Friday

Okay, let's admit it, Malaysia's not in. xD

But. what the hell? Malaysia football rocks! *in a way* XDDD

Nah, you won't be able to find Malaysia's flag in there. But I'm particularly more interested in...uh, wait! Where's SPAIN?!?!?!?!

Hell yeah! I support Spain man! Maybe it was for the fact that Fernando Torres and David Villa were in the Spanish team but not anymore now. I love Spain! Fine, I love Torres too! XD

Not as if you can see it. Never mind. XD Just tryna figure out the flags will do alright? Okay, lemme spot Spain's flag. 

Oh! Spot it! Group H, with um, I dunno which countries those flags belong to. *shame on me* XP

Anyone remember the last World Cup? That was in Germany right? *if i'm not mistaken xD*

Gee, I still remember the final match between Italy and France. I rooted for Italy because of a really childish and unreasonable reason. That is, France defeated Spain. HAHA. I forgot it was Spain or Portugal. Well yeah, I supported Portugal too because I USED to like Christiano Ronaldo. I adored him. *ew!* XD Not anymore okay people? So yeah, for that particular reason, I was like, anti-France and hoped so hard for France to lose. XPPP

Okay, I think it was Spain. I don't wanna think that it was Portugal cause, gosh! I just can't believe I liked CR! XD

Oh, that match was EPIC!

And LEGENDARY!

XDDD

Remember this incident? HAHA. That was EPIC man!

Since then, I've come to know of ZINEDINE ZIDANE. XD Well, he is a good player. Considered a senior player? *NOT veteran!* XD

I like K'Naan. XD I mean, I like him singing the song Waving Flag.

Yes, I am now obsessed with this song. I dunno whether it's the theme song or what, but it is definitely one of this year's FIFA World Cup anthem. Nice huh? I love it to the max!

This is the Coca-Cola celebration mix version. I love it as much. Um, maybe more. XD

I wanna learn that dance!!! XD And I wanna dance it in the midst of crazy football fanatics out there like myself! XD Jom mamak!

This is just the perfect music video for the phrase 'unify us' in the song lyrics. Just listen to the lyrics. They are just so meaningful. =)

And this is by far the MOST AWESOMEST and CUTEST animal video ever!

My favourite one. XD

I'm hoping to see the clashes between Kaka, Messi, Christiano Ronaldo, Rooney, Gerrard, Torres and Henry! XD *are all of them in? XP*

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

Born to a throne, stronger than Rome

But Violent prone, poor people zone

But it’s my home, all I have known

Where I got grown, streets we would roam

But out of the darkness, I came the farthest

Among the hardest survival

Learn from these streets, it can be bleak

Except no defeat, surrender retreat

So we struggling, fighting to eat and

We wondering when we’ll be free

So we patiently wait, for that fateful day

It’s not far away, so for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

So many wars, settling scores

Bringing us promises, leaving us poor

I heard them say, love is the way

Love is the answer, that’s what they say,

But look how they treat us, make us believers

We fight their battles, then they deceive us

Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us

Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers

But we struggling, fighting to eat

And we wondering, when we’ll be free

So we patiently wait, for that faithful day

It’s not far away, but for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And everybody will be singing it

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And you and I will be singing it

(Ohhhh Ohhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhh)

And we all will be singing it

(Ohhh Ohh Ohh Ohh)

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back

When I get older, when I get older

I will be stronger, just like a Waving Flag

Just like a Waving Flag, just like a Waving flag

Flag, flag, Just like a Waving Flag.

I can be so fanatical with this world cup season that you might find that excessively annoying at times. *though i hope you won't feel so XD*

Oh FIFA World Cup, you're finally here! I've been missing you for the last 4 years. =)

Damn, I don't have a Spain jersey! Aw man! XDDD

Mum promised to buy me an original jersey, and maybe I should blame it on disillusion that I can't seem to see any jersey in my wardrobe. XP

I, Claira Chan, solemnly declare that I will honour every single match throughout the whole 2010 FIFA World Cup by following all matches even if it spans to the wee hours in the morning.

XDDD

I am nuts, ain't I?

Then I guess football supporters from all over the world are as crazy as me. XD

Siapa pergi mamak tengok bola ajak aku tau? XDDD

PS. Michelle Tan Li Ping! Football is way better than tennis. XPPP
