Cześć! Jak się masz?

The boys are counting hours to the 1st game of EURO 2012. Frankly speaking, I am not a big fan of football game but the ambiance & atmosphere during the tournament are tremendously colorful & cheerful even in Malaysia. It is a tradition for Malaysian to watch football with family & friends at Mamak (Indian Muslim) stall which is the most popular outdoor spot to hang out, eat, drink & laugh at top of our lungs without worrying about other people sit next to us. Furthermore these stalls operate round the clock, offer cheap food & drinks & big screen for football games.

Mamak stalls in KL are the hottest nite spot to hang out

Well, do you remember Paul the clairvoyant octopus that predicted the last European Championship & the World Cup in South Africa? His overall record from the 2 championships was 12 correct from the 14 attempts. Although now Paul is a history, he has a worthy heir, a Polish-based Indian elephant named Citta. I saw her in the news yesterday. She predicted the 1st game of Group A - Poland vs Greece. Human beings are such a craze. They tabled down 3 melons with flags on each melon. Polisg flag, Greek flag & banner proclaiming a draw. Citta confidently chosen the Polish flag as the winner. Let see tonight if Citta is as good as Paul :)

With friends watching Malaysia vs Singapore at National Stadium in July 2011

Since the time zone is a big gap between Europe & Malaysia, the fanatic fans definitely have to give up their sleeping time just to watch the games.  Most will come late to work, take emergency leave or even medical leave. Don't worry boss, this will only last for 3 weeks. Give them a break. It will spark them up after the tournament ends hehehehe So friends, plan your sleeping time watching the games :)
