Millenium Square
I watched the England-France match in Millenium Square yesterday. It was packed with people and the air around had the very English smell of beer, cigarettes and weed. It's a smell that will always remind me of England. Was pretty disappointed that England lost, but will try to catch the England-Switzerland one on next if I'm suffering from jet lag in Singapore. I'm not very into watching football but I have a slight sense of patiotism for England so I'll try to catch the matches! We yelled alot during the match, but the guy behind us was slightly tipsy and was dancing with another guy, shouting "Come on England!" "Neh.......ville!" and "You ****ing bastards!" at appropriate moments, which made Jean and I laugh.
I saw Wotshisnameasianfetish in Millenium Square that day, clutching his girfriend, and tried to get into Millenium Square by another route, but there was only one way in. Was with Jean and another guy at that time, who very kindly asked, "Do you want me to pretend to be your boyfriend?" I wonder what he would've done if I'd said yes! Ahahahhaha. It was very kind of him though!
Went down to the library today to return some overdue books. Contemplated puting on a funny accent and saying, "I ah ama a poore studenta ah. I no speaka Inglisah." to avoid my fines, but didn't have the guts to do that in the end. So I ended up £5.40 poorer. Aiyah....
Katie baked a cake for my birthday and gave me a little book entitled "How to be British". My housemates took me out for a very nice dinner and my cell group gave me a surprise picnic at Roundhay park. Everyone has been very nice, and I have to try hard to stop myself from getting mushy.
Am blogging rubbish so shall stop now. Next blog will be from Singapore. Stay tuned, folks.
