Ducks

been living on roast duck with rice these past two days ..lol

Anyway, this week, world cup starts!!
Today was very very quiet in cinema! everyone must've been watching football..esp since england played today. Then also got so many customers came wearing england football jerseys.
Sometimes it makes me wonder, how come just a football game (a.k.a : 11 guys, no 22 guys, running around & fighting for one small ball for 90 minutes)..can unite so many ppl, as in, not unite "uniting"..but, makes..say ppl frm england, all gather together..ppl from all kinds of background, social status, education, etc..can all gather together and support one team. If that team lost, all will be sad..If it won, then all will be happy.

Why?
I mean..frankly speaking, if politics can work like football..then each nation in the world will b able to live peacefully. Say, for country A, which is a democratic country. All the team players are the politicians/president & all the supporters are the ppl who lives in country A. The referee will be the MPR (hmm..wht's d english word for tht..the winning party i guess?).
Anyhow,tht country A can be indonesia.
It will b so good then.

I mean, indo government is improving nowadays, BUT ..nepotism/corruption have been rooted in the country for too long. It's impossible to completely eradicate it in a short time.
Hmm..maybe in the next 20-30 yrs.
Seriously, at home, if u know the right ppl..you can get away with anything. Anything. any single damn thing u want, u'll get it. Belive me.
Then another thing, indo government seems to always been working on things which are NOT important. Say, few months ago, there's this row abt shall they launch this new rule, which basically will forbid women wear shorts/tank tops etc in public places. Lucky in d end, they failed since got too many ppl protesting.
Maybe the earthquake/bali bombing/marriot bombing/tsunami...were good after all. Bcos it makes indo ppl n government actually united.
How come did I end up talking abt indo politics?
i feel a bit blur
from all the packing/mugging/lack of sleep nowadays.
