last night's football match ended in a disappointing draw, with both saf fc and geylang united putting up really dismal performances.
it was quite fun though, sitting up in the vip area with some uncles who're my dad's ex-colleagues, and with people who kept calling daddy "sir", and laughing at the players' silly mistakes (meanie, yes, i know...but they couldn't even pass the ball to each other properly). i would have so fallen asleep if i'd caught the game on telly, but being in the stadium with the saf fc cheerleaders (complete with er...sexy uniforms and rousing drumbeats) gave atmosphere to the whole thing, so i did rather enjoy it.
fawn and i got ourselves spray-painted with very amusing saf logo-thingies just before we returned to our seats after the half-time break where we had icky noods, otah, salty fried chicken and sponsored anderson ice cream at the vip lounge.
i was surprised to see that there was actually quite an okay turn-out *gasp* people actually paid to go watch! it was funny, how they shouted at the players, and looked all hair-tearingly frustrated when the opposite team scored or when their players did something dumb.heh but we by-default-warrior-supporters didn't bet, so we laughed our way through the entire 94-minute match, while making the appropriate "GO, FASTER!!!", "GOAL!!!", "OH COME ONNNNNN!!!" etc... towards the end, the lousy referee looked like he was about to collapse and was barely able to keep up with the match, resulting in saf fc not being awarded a penalty they were supposed to get, so i happily shouted, "BOOOOO!!!" (but in a lady-like fashion of course) haha.
since we caught the match on saf fc's home ground in far-flung choa chu kang, we decided that it's only fair that we go to geylang for some dou jiang.
tried out the new rochor beancurd house branch at lorong 40 and it was heaps better than the usual doujiang youtiao place we go to. it's a small branch, and the service was pretty good especially since the guy/owner's young and bilingual. he even chuckled along with us when we laughed at how his "assistant wanted" sign had been vandalized.
translated: "female assassin wanted". heh
