Euro Cup

Was watching EuroCup semifinal between Portugal and Pays-Bas(Netherlands) in our
TV room last night with a bunch of other people. So, portugal was winning and
everyone (majorly french and swiss) seemed very happy with that. all the major
european powers dont like each other, and are happy if they lose it seems. :-)
esp the french - they hate the british and germans, I came to know. anyway, portugal
won the match 2-1 much to everyones delight, and I came back home to do some work
and write this. But, there seemed to be a huge traffic snarl or something like that -
the cars outside were honking almost incessantly. After 15 minutes of enduring, I went
out. Found no traffic snarls. But, cars were driving around with flags of Portugal
waving, and shouting. Honks were to express their joy. Nice... rememebed 2 summers back
in Paris, when Senegal had defeated franch in the world cup, and the senegalese were
doing the same on the streets of paris jeering at the crest-fallen French.

Met my other roommate, Cyrille. She is a swiss from some place near Basle. She studies
social sciences after shifting from Music last year. Wants a lot
to go and do a year of study in america, but can't go. It's too far, and she can't
leave her boyfriend behind. hmmm...makes me wonder. :-)
