SURREALITY

What I have experienced in HongKong can be describe in a word. SURREALITY. SURREAL because I still can't believe it that I saw these guys in person. REALITY because a dream came true.

OH TO BE A GOONER! 

Lucky Charm

Photo taken by Stuart McFarlane.

Who would have thought that the last thing I added inside my backpack could be my trip’s lucky charm?

1. When we went to the fans party, Kyle Bartley asked us to raised the Philippine NT bar scarf and took a photo of it.

2. As we entered the stadium, we saw and called out Stuart McFarlane, the club’s official photographer. We had a brief chat, and he asked us to pose in front of his camera. Lo and behold, the photo above.

3. We waited for the club coach outside the stadium. But we made sure to stay away from where the crowd was. The coach stopped as the ushers try to widen the barricade, I flashed the flag part of the scarf while the others roll out our banner. We waved our hands and screamed, “Arsene! Arsene!”. The great man saw us, he smiled and he waved back. That was the best moment ever! Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also waved at us too.
