End of TV series

Music: Brandy- Sitting up in my room Mood: relaxed...so far

Ahhh...finally the ever-anticipated action-packed, emotion-filled, comedic tv series that got the male species all over the world craving for more, is finally over~~
sometimes i really think that it's a little ridiculous why people would put in so much effort for a mere ball game (like, y isn't this happening in tennis or bicycle racing or taekwondo~:P), but i do admit that i enjoyed watching 22 giants chasing, fighting and falling over for a little rubber ball in 2, sometimes 3 hours' time.
so much to mention about the month-long competition, few of the amusing things that i have found out was that,
1) Ronaldo actually weighted at a whooping 97kg

2) Beckham finally resigned as England team's captain after holding on for 6 years

3) born in 1 April, 1983, France's Iraq-ish looking Franck Ribery is only as old as Shao Pin


4) the game between Brazil and Ghana looks freaking Brokeback

5)Roberto Carlos is only 167cm

6) expert lip- readers revealed that Materazzi has said, "We all know that your mother is a terrorist bich" to Zidane, while in chinese newspapers, "你是意大利養出來的一隻忘恩負義的狗", which sent Zidane off the field after a headbutt.

7) i'll just put this in anyway...Victoria Beckham brought along 60 pairs of sunglasses from England.

8) Golden Ball 2006: Zinedine Zidane (followed closely by Cannavaro and Pirlo)

Golden Boot 2006: Germany's Miroslav Klose with 5 goals (Bah..Ronaldo scored 8 goals in 2002)

Best Goalkeeper: Italy's Gianluigi Buffon

Most entertaining team: Portugal

Best young player: Germany's Lukas Podolski who scored 3 goals throughout the match. (and he's only 21..damn)

And my conclusion? i would always choose pasta over french fries :D
