Germany 0 – 1 Spain

I stayed up all the way till 5, just to watch Germany being cut down by Spain. During the exams, all i had were newspapers to keep me updated the team that was my favourtite to win the title Best in Europe. I had this very colorful image of Germany players, though down by a goal, come back unexpectedly to strike 3 goals in the injury time.

I had this image, that Germany, finally had gotten their act together as a team unlike in the World Cup, where new players like Lukas Podolski and Bastian Schweinsteiger injected new blood and enthusiasm, as well as an undying hunger for silverware.

Alas, as i watched my first and final live match during the Euro 2008, i was treated to a very sludgy, porous defending, careless, and rowdy Team Germany. Passes being given away, letting Torres through a very spongy defence, crosses that end up at the press box and headers given to the much shorter team members of Spain.

They lost 1-0, but it was enough to pry the hearts of all German football fans. As i drove to school today, i heard on the radio that Joachim Loew is proud of his team’s achievement in that they actually made it to the finals.

Screw that.

You (team Germany) disappointed the whole of Germany by not making through, by not lifting the prized chrome reflective trophy that is the apple in every european footballer’s eye. You did not perform your best, did not give it everything you’ve got in your tanks, that ultiamtely lead to the failure of your whole project.

I can only hope, in the coming World Cup, i do not see a repeat of this kind of performance. They played like highschool children against a very mature, talented and athletic Spain.

The Shame…

What have you done today?

Wanted

If your life is running low on cathecholamines, beautiful cars, a dream of one day to become somebody, and of course, the beautiful Angelina Jolie, then this movie is for you. Adrenaline was pumping through  my whole body throughout the entire show and left me quite exhuasted after the show ended. A must watch for any movie connoisseurs. This time, i watched together with a big group, namely Wen Chung, Ramzi, Khine Khine, Sook Fen, Sharon, Sandy, Yen Bee, Alicia Si, and not forgetting, Ahmad Ridah Rooney (fualao i love his name man!).

The desert eagle damn chun lo… Oh yea!! Jolie is damn chun also!!

Went out to Asia Cafe tonight to hang out with my music band buddies (kelvin, Anthony, Ming Hui, and Sanjeet). There is a certain someone that i am seriously pissed (ok lah… more like unhappy) about. However, one day, if he does it again, i would like to diss it in front of his face and tell him off. But till then, my lips are sealed tight. Anyway… I still managed to have fun tonight! Playing pool and getting my head shot at a few times was for the most part very entertaining. I particularly liked the sound and actions of the 9mm Glock pistol that was on Counter Strike Source! It has a nicer ring to it than in Condition Zero.

Ohoh!!! Germany will be going against Spain for the Euro 2008 Finals! I really do hope Germany will take the crown!!! Will be watching it with my dad over beer and peanuts!!

Am seriously bummed out tonight, will sleep, and probably not wake up till the sun hits my buttocks.

Strawberry flavoured

Pineapple Flavoured

Orange Flavoured

Durian (freaking weird) Flavour

Chocolate Flavoured… and~

Blueberry Flavoured!

Haha~~damn cheesy lo the insides~~but it’s really really satisfying! Thanks Margeret

Went out to The Curve for the opening ceremony of Sanctuary’s new Smirnoff Ice Bar~ Apparently they have free food and free flow of Tiger Beer, whiskey, vodka, rum, and gin. Anthony was nice enough to call me, Seng Chye, Kelvin, Ming Hui and Ming Wai to the event!

Haven’t partied with this gang for a long time. Gotta say it was a hell load of fun! I know it’s exam month and all, but… what the hell~~ Guy’s gotta let steam out sometimes right?

It’s great to have friends chilling out and having fun~ Talking cock and just smilling the whole way through. Life should lean towards this area more often…

Went to have an x ray of my foot just tonight. This would not have been possible if good ol’ Kwan did not so good heartedly steped up to my cry of help to drive me to the clinic! I was quite afraid that the pain radiating from my right ankle would be a fracture, not counting the many words of advice coming from anthony (No lah…it’s not a fracture la! You can walk what!! No need to worry la!!!) and Jian Min (My brother last time also sprained like you! Hairline fracture le!! Was put on a cast and cannot play sports for 1, 2 months le!!). So i am quite happy and thankful that my leg isn’t fractured~ But the doc did advice me to bandage it when i walk and to get a walking cane (go to the antique shop and buy one of those smart looking british type of tongkat! Make sure it’s bamboo! Canes are made out of bamboo right? Then only strong ma!!). Anyway~

Thanks so much Kwan for driving me here and there~ Just wasted 45 minuites of your precious time le!! Will buy you lunch someday!! Thank Thank!!

going out for mamak~ Margaret’s hungry!

Dr. Ling

Today was the last day together with Dr. Ling Shih Gang. A very different fascilitator who starts every PBL with short, fun games while we wait for late comers, who amaze us with his knowledge and experience, his words of wisdom on life and how to be a better doctor and person, his really cheena look which i find really really funny and how a child could actually like him just by looking at him.

Yeah, we’ll miss you Dr. Ling! Hope we would have the pleasure of meeting you again in the future!

Daddy’s Day

Went to Seremban to celebrate Father’s Day. An anual event where the entire family gathers to talk crap, eat good, oil immersed food, and of course, to force that nice big smile my grandfather hides so well. This year was the same as last year, and the year before that. But the true meaning of these days (father’s, mother’s teacher’s, children’s) have been more commercial than ever. I see commercials of massage chairs, restaurants, and other stuff, taking advantage of these days to make money. I’d like to think father’s day as a day to celebrate, note, CELEBRATE, the work, effort, sweat, tears, and love our dads (mums, children, teachers) have given us. How much they tolerate our mis-doings, how they would accept us openly no matter what the situation calls.

Celebration. We don’t need fancy dinners, expensive gifts, formal attires, or an uptown place to celebrate. Hell bring me a 6 pack and we can yum seng till our throats go soar. How bout we try that for next year’s celebration? The company of your children surrounding you on your day, now that’s something to celebrate. The biggest gift a person can give to someone, is time. Because once you’ve given it, you can never earn it back. (cliche-nya…)

I don’t know bout my dad or granddad, but this is what i think. Won’t you get bored? Eating all those foods that make you die faster (ok la… damn long time din eat nice cheena food dy… delish oso la…).

One thing i love about these events though, is that it gives me a chance to  see, written in block capitals on my grandfather’s face, my dad’s face, each of my uncle’s faces, that they actually feel loved by us for that particular moment, someone that cares for their existence, acknowledging their efforts! Happiness.

Ok la… i also don’t know wat i am crapping. I have a lot of crap in my head, and since i IBS-ed all of it here~

Sunrise

It’s going to be 6, and i’m still awake…

bed doesn’t seem so comfortable afterall…

or perhaps there’s too many things jumbled up in my mind right now…

i’ve been thinking of writting down a few to-do’s, and sticking them up on my clipboard in my room.

To remind myself how imperfect i am,

To remind myself to work out,

To remind myself to be truthful to others and myself,

To remind myself that sex = danger,

To remind myself that confidence is an essential,

To remind myself to achieve confidence, i need to be knowledgeble, skillful, and quick-witted,

To remind myself i suck in drinking, and to induce liver enzymes to work more efficiently,

To remind myself i have only one family, and that family is worth protecting,

To remind myself i am lucky to have so many friends,

Yea…i guess that’s about it…

so many to-do’s… I wonder how many i can achieve in a single day.

Sucks having insomnia… My whole schedual’s gonna be screwed tomorro.

Oh~ and my ankle’s healing well!! Can walk, can drive, can pseudo jump dy~~

My eyes are burning, and i’m typing in the dark, and all the letters are coming up all wrong~~

screw all this la…

going to try and get sleep again…

or i might as well sit by the window, waiting for the sun to rise…

update: manage to sleep off at 6.45 am, and it’s 11.45 now… i’m damn sleepy…
