Ethan Loves to Dance!

There is a group of aunties gathering at the neighourhood tentage for dancing lessons 3 times a week. Grandma always bring Ethan to watch, and once we discovered that Ethan likes to dance along... you guess it - there is no stopping him! Sometimes, the aunties would watch Ethan dance until they forgot their steps!

Manchester United Romping!!! And a note on Wayne Rooney

Last week was a superb week for United.

I mean, won 3-1 vs City, followed by winning 1-3 vs Arsenal. I mean, WOW!!! WOOHOOO!!!

Super emontional game the vs city game was.... the look of Tevez after the game was, at risk of being cliche, priceless.... WAHAHAHAHAA!! Especially after he scored the aggregate leveller, to have Rooney snatch the winning goal at injury time.. I MEAN, how dramatic can this get? If it were a movie, most adult-thinking adults would dismiss the plot as hollywoodish fairytale nonsense. They say true tales are bigger and more outlandish than any imagination humans can conjure. I have to agree.

1-3 vs Arsenal... well, I can't complain can I? Both club bosses have mellowed over the years. I mean, can you imagine Arsene Wenger saying that he look forward to this match (he did say that, btw). This after an earlier-season accusation of United being "anti-football". I somehow miss the volcanic clashes that preceded this generation of players, whenever the gunners and devils played (think van nistelroy, keane, vs henry, campbell, ashley cole era). And of course the verbal warfare so eagerly broadcasted by the papers between Wenger and Ferguson. Still, it is really really heart-warming to see Wenger coming up to Ferguson and offering a handshake at the end of the latest matchup between both teams.

The man to watch, undeniably, is Wayne "Superman" Rooney. The commentators during the Arsenal-United match couldn't have put it better - "anytime from now till South Africa, whenever Rooney cringes, the whole of England hold their breath.... (not the exact words but you get what I MEAN). This guy is Arthur of Camelot, the foretold saviour of England. Even bigger than my favourite Cate Blanchard, Queen Elizabeth I. Or maybe they could have put it better - i can assure the commentators that more than the whole of England are holding their breath whenever Rooney sneezes. When I pray that he be fit come world cup, i know at least 1 billion other souls are with me.

Ok now, repeat after me: "God saves Wayne Rooney".
