Meet Dave


"David Beckham will be in Singapore this weekend!" The news struck the island last Friday, he was reportedly scheduled to make an appearance at a closed-door event in Marina Bay Sands on Sunday 9am to 12pm, no further info for the thrilled civilians.

I'm never really a fan of Sir David Beckham, but if you ask me if I want to meet him YES, I'D LIKE TO MEET A FOOTBALL LIVING LEGEND. But it's Sunday morning and I'd to be in Church and none of us was actually sure where and how exactly to find that guy (well - some lucky people spotted him in Adidas store in MBS on Saturday), and I don't belong to the groupie age anymore. 

So, I decided not to go. "It's just David Beckham," I comforted myself, even though I couldn't stop tracking #MBS #beckham #singapore twitter updates. Some people even woke up early in the morning and headed to MBS, hoping to see him. And everyone seemed to give up after around 2 hours, there seemed to be no sign of Beckham. It seemed like I made a right decision. 

But - close to noon, some people started to tweet ecstatically. I panicked. There was this war in my mind, like if I decide to go, it might be too late. And MBS is huge. Then somebody tweeted that he was having lunch in Mozza! So I took a cab and along the journey I prayed that David Beckham would have to wait for his food.

And thank God :) You just turned a gloomy Sunday to a momentous one - and once again reminded me why I call myself the luckiest girl in the world. David Beckham and a bunch of bodyguards walked right in front of me. Although due to the hysterical crowd I didn't manage to take a clear picture of him, it's okay deep inside I know I've seen such, hotness.

The clearest pic I took. Hahah.
Okay gotta make a confession. I actually was, kind of a fan, back in 1998. He was a young, shy, raising star in MU who together with del Piero first made me realize that football isn't so boring. Hahas. Then he met Posh. Then he went bald. That's it. I was no longer a fan.

But when del Piero went bald he's still my uncle. So it's proven that I love my uncle through thick and thin. Beckham is retiring soon. My uncle is from the same era, he's only a year older. I NEED TO FLY TO SYDNEY A.S.A.P.
