Me, World Cup and the Singapore Pools

Life has been pretty taxing these two weeks. Besides juggling with work and the daily mundane stuffs, there is now the World Cup. Watching the World Cup requires a lot of stamina, especially so if there is a time difference. You forgo your precious beauty sleep so that you can catch a glimpse of the actions. Many times, your anticipation and your enthusiasm for a particular match is often being let down by a “boring, time wasting” game, which leaves you with an afterthought, “What the %#%& did I waste my sleep over this!” Of course, as true Singapore footballers fan, I also try to visit the Government Pension Fund Department to do some investments. So far, I have been pretty luckless, given that whichever matches that I have bother to watch and laid a flutter turns out to be a dub and burnt a whole in my pocket! With the soccer fever still hot, I decided at present time to place another irrational bet on Ivory Coast beating the living daylights of Holland (which by a way, I’m quite a fan ) Bet with your sense and not your heart? Hmm, more likely due to the attractive odds. So in true spirit of the Singaporean Vast Pensioners, let the match begin and shout“ Ho Say Liao!”
