Orange

This season, my fav colour is ORANGE.
World Cup fever is on, already paid for World-Cup par-per view on SCV, now, jus waiting for June 9, the day that it kicks off !
Why is my fav colour orange ? All because of this man. Marco Van Basten. He was my hero since i was in Sec 1. He was so young, so talented. But sadly, his career was short-lived due to injuries. Holland didn't make it to World Cup in 2002, but never mind. This yr, they're back ! And what makes me so eager and excited is that Van Basten is now the coach of the Dutch national team!
It took me quite a while to finally get a recent picture of him on the net. Yes, he has indeed aged. Those lines at the corner of his eyes, those wrinkles....but, never the less, he is still my hero. Still as charming as ever.
Nothing changes. He is still Van Basten. And i can't wait to see the new Holland team under his coaching.
This World Cup. my heart will be with Holland. Yes, i still love Italy, but this time round, Holland comes first, then Italy, then England.
Which reminds me, i have another hero. Roberto Baggio-the famous ponytail. Van Basten was my 1st love, Baggio was 2nd. There is no 3rd. And never will there be.
