So. What am I doing during the weekend? This time around I wanna do something different, by playing tourist again. And taking me into another kind of shopping adventure. Sports. Football, to be precise. Being in London, or UK in general, it's a total shame not to follow any football match. Though my team is always the Red Devil, but I can't help enjoying great match on ITV1 every now and then. That's all I can do anyway - stuck on the tele - coz to get a ticket to the stadium... man, that's so damn hard! I do play sports. I'm not a football player though, coz I'm not that good with the leg thing. I'm more to hand sports. (No dirty thoughts okay, LOL!!). Hockey when I'm 14, basketball during my 15 and handball, a short time when I'm in college (which ended me up with twisted ankle!). My personal fav is deff basketball, coz I love doing all those dunk. My mate here asked me the other day if I wanna play. But man, I just don't have the time nowadays. Still, I think those who don't play sports is a sore loo-hoo-ser!
Which stadium am I this time? The Chelsea FC in Stamford Bridge - home to the Blues. Home to the great players like Drogba, Ballack, Cole (A & J), Lampard and Terry. It's not a match day last weekend, so the stadium is pretty empty. I'm quite surprise to be honest to see the stadium from the outside, coz it's not really as splendid-looking like Emirates near my house, or Man United at Old Trafford. Yet, it has it's own charm - esp a wall which is quite unique called the Shed End.
Anyway, the shopping part is the best too. Going to Chelsea FC Megastore is fun. Anything that you want from the Blues. The home and away kit (hmmm..sound like the TV show, ahaks!), keyrings, mugs, car sticker or even home thingy like pillows and bedsheets. I overheard this little girl talking to her dad 'Can I get those sheets please'... which I'm found quite funny. Oh, since the team is sponsored by Adidas and Samsung, you can definitely find the brand there too - from the Adidas Chelsea shirts bearing the name of Lampard and Drogba, to Samsung mp3 player and N310 netbook!? Some shirts (or shall I say football tee) are on sale at massive reduction. Think I wanna go back for a second time soon to get some of those to my bros and nephews. Ehehe.. :)
you can sit beside Lampard to get your pix taken

I beg to get this drawstring bag for free...
Oh I don't buy this. It's just that Chelsea is sponsored by Samsung & Adidas
- which happened to be the products that I used. :)
