post-exams

oh i figured one should like, say, have plans to party or go out straight after the last paper, but i had none of that. simply went home after leaving at 6pm, packing a ton of KFC and satay on the way home for my family peeps. 

sometimes i think it's maybe because i have no friends. but more likely it's cos i had alr been gg out and doing my own stuff since my last paper 6 days ago. haha. so today was like an anticlimax of sorts.

"wah exams finish alr right" my grandpa jokingly commented when he saw my bags of food. 

read my graphic novels, played on my Xbox and met up with the pri sch bestie to get my tennis balls back. then watched the UCL semi-final btw chelsea and barca, the winner of which would go on to face my beloved man utd in the finals. 

figured chelsea would have had the match in the bag but for the fact that the referee VERY weirdly refused to award not one, not two, but THREE penalties. blatant case of bribery, i commented to the cousin. as the game went on and barca got a few of their main players suspended for the finals due to bookings, we both ardently prayed tt barca would overcome the 1 goal deficit and book their way to the final in a weakened state. 

alas, it was not to be, as chelsea led 1-0 even after full-time. we grew resigned to the fate tt it'll be an all-english final once again. 

then in injury time (93rd min!), iniesta popped in a 'from nowhere' goal to send the barca contingent into rapture. i threw my bolster up in celebration and ran circles and cheered like there was no tomorrow (at 4am). ok now i sound like a himbo. just take it tt i was overjoyed k. forget i mentioned the cheering part. 

no way barca's gg to match up to man utd with a second string defence; afterall as agreed with the cousin, they're currently like an arsenal side who can really attack but with an even weaker defence. and man utd just whupped arsenal 3-0 in the other semi-final ytd. woohoo. looking 4ward to the finals.
