London won!!!

After a day of presentation and hard core selling, London emerged as the winner for the 2012 Olympics. Well, UK has raised its stake by getting popular stars such as David Beckham and Victoria to fly all the way from London. Despite the upcoming G8 summit in Scotland, Prime Minister Tony Blair came personally to garner more support. Of course, the royal family play her part by getting Princess Anne here.

The hot favours Paris lost by 4 votes. Before announcing the results, my colleague were very pro-paris. I remained neutral cos to me it does not make a different. The candidate cities were European nations except New York. Does it matter who win? The neck to neck fight between Paris and London was stiff but afterall they are neighbouring countries. So to me, not much difference. To the Europeans, yes... esp UK and France cos they are arch rival from olden days. ha....

Work was busy but compensated with a packet of rice, courtesy from boss. Although there were some hip cups along the way, generally it was ok. However, i dun think my supervisor feel that. Another round of shooting. Haiz... Pple here enjoy doing this due to the complex culture. Well....
