Otto - The Greek God of Football.
I am writing this after witnessing arguably one of the more amazing (for the greeks at least) games of
EURO 2004.
Amazing because it goes to show that in life, anything goes.
I remember the EURO fever in college towards the end of last semester. Thanks to the fully air-conditioned TV room that we have, students had the opportunity to stay awake until the early hours of the morning to catch their favourite team play and subsequently miss the morning classes.
Even if they were able to wake up, staying awake would've been another great struggle. The seniors didn't have a problem since they were practically just bumming around biding their time. Occasionaly coming out of their rooms
for meals, sports and the odd club farewell party.
For the juniors, well, having just finished their AS exams, they weren't in any particular mood to study. Who studies during the final week of the semester anyway?
Apparently, the teachers think we should, evident when Mr J (probably under strict orders from you-know-who) raided the boys' TV room and demanded that everyone go back to their chalets and get some sleep. His concern is really touching. Really.
Heh.
He said that we actually have a curfew in college. That's news to me.
In any case, at least there aren't any curfews during the hols.
One week to go till the New Semester.
