That minute Vietnam took
to score the goal against Singapore
was probably the worst minute of my life in years.
The agony of it all...
What a heartbreak.
In front of a full capacity crowd,
our national team fell prey to the Vietnamese.

However, as huge as the loss was,
i dun think hooliganism was necessary.
There was a big crowd and commotion at
the East Entrance when we were leaving.
Didnt really bother what it was about.
Then, at the overhead bridge,
i saw what looked like a person on the ground,
with ppl attending to his supposed injuries.

Then only just now i read at RedSports,
what happened a the East Entrance was that
Vietnamese supporters were being beaten up
by Singaporean sore losers;
their flags taken away from them,
burnt as if it was a heroic display.

At the bridge was probably a bloodied
Vietnamese already beaten up.

Its really not a good thing for this to happen.
Its really got nothing to do with
passion for football nor nation.
(Shout vulgarities can alr rite?)
No need to go injuring others.

Sorry to all the Vietnamese ppl who got involved k?
:D:D:D

computers, hard rock

Computers are such troublesome stuff.
I have lotsa games i wanna play rite now.
Initially, i didnt have enough space on my desktop,
now i have a shit load of space.
160 GB to be exact.
Yet i realise my graphics card is faulty
so now my com cant support most games.

Configuring my CPU by myself was a cool thing
especially with me communicating with Seroyen
on the webcam and mic over MSN,
him giving me instructions on what to do.
Felt like some complicated mission or sth.
Maybe i should have worked these holidays.
Then i'd have enough money to buy me
Total 90/Mercurial Vapor/Predator
and a new Graphics Card.

In other news, ive been dreaming of ridiculous stuff
for the past few days,
in contrast to the realistic ones i've been having.
Good thing. I dun wanna be growing up too fast.
Ridiculous dreams are always fun.
Except for the parts you start randomly falling down.

Been listening to music from the 70's and 80's.
An era where Hard Rock and Heavy Metal ruled.
Watching School of Rock introduced me to some
very catchy tunes and guitar riffs;
those that you've heard b4 but nvr really acknowledged.



In order of appearance (or wadever):-
Iron Man - Black Sabbath
Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple
Highway to Hell - AC/DC

the piano/keyboard onwards i dunno alr.

And here's their finale song.



Totally makes me wanna be a part of a band.
Sadly playing music instruments isn't really my forte.
Give me a ball, i'll juggle it for you.

Expect a music-based post coming soon.



(not so soon)

Would have loved to see Singapore win
the game just now but we'll all
have to make do with a goalless draw.
Hopefully things will be much better on Sunday
over here in Singapore.

Redsports had live reports while the game was on,
and the guest pundit was Aleksandar Duric who
is currently injured and nt able to play for SG.
Had a rather interesting time chatting with him
and other Singapore supporters.

He claimed that he switched his channel from ESPN
to Channel 5, and then Singapore had a goal (which
was eventually disallowed due to offside).
So he went on to switch back from 5 to ESPN
to see whether Singapore would get another goal.
He added a "lol" behind.

Seems like a cool guy to me.
For a 38 year old guy like him.
Thn again, who am i to decide who gets to be savvy..

A day ago i read Singapore has slight chance
of being hit by tsunami.
Apparently, chances are really very low.
Alarmed me abit since i live at the extreme south.
Thinking again, i guess im protected by the huge
chunk of land protecting my house,
that is Mt Faber.

In other news,
a tree on Mt Faber fell today
and it now blocks my view of the beautiful,
gigantic lighted Xmas tree Mt Faber has on it.
It is reportedly the durian tree,
so that yellow cab driver uncle has no
durian to go hunting for anymore.

What a long week..
With common tests over,
i'm finally able to spend time with my
one and only love,
Football..
And besides that i can also go back to GESS
to see see look look NCC training :D

"Section 1 ready?! Section 1 charge!!!!"

"ENEMY CONTACTED! EVERYONE GET TO
YOUR POSITIONS!!!"

"Help!!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!"

Are just some phrases im gonna be hearing
over and over again.
Gotta love Mock Attack..

Oh but before i resume playing soccer
i needa get my secret love affair with Ventolin
over and done with..

Oh Ventolin, i need you so much,
but i have to move on now..

On a completely unrelated note,
I do NOT think Singapore will win the cup this year.
Thailand's WAYY too strong.
So Lions, prove me wrong baby..

Lotsa things to do in this 3 week break actually..
ROP remains main priority.



duty calls;
time to return to the alma mater.

K, i totally regret not watching
Everton vs Aston Villa yesterday,
which ended up to be a 5 goal thriller.
Sidwell opened the accounts for Villa in the 34th second -.-
with a scorcher of a goal,
thn when it was 2 - 1 in injury time, Lescott seemed to
save a point for Everton with a bicycle kick equaliser.
And then AGAIN, in injury time,
Ashley Young won the game for Villa.

omgomgomgomgomg

Like the perfect match jigehzz...
On the bright side, Singapore are through
to semi finals of Suzuki (ASEAN) Cup! ^^

Anyway, we're back to the day when lamb's
get slaughtered again;
that's right, Hari Raya Haji.
I'm not badmouthing the event, really,
cuz the slaughtering holds much religious significance.
Something that i myself dun quite understand,
but thats just because im dumb and ignorant..

EDIT: it seems like my attempt to calefare
yesterday at my mosque failed.
Ppl from the Malay news at 8 were there
taking shots and it seems like they didnt show
the one with a particular boy in purple walking
past and sneezing.

It seems as though every Hari Raya i feel like shit
cuz i start to reflect on what ive done in my life
as a Muslim so far.
Well, almost nothing.
Certainly hope i'll get there one day.

Cant really enjoy Hari Raya today
since Common Tests start tmr.
Man, they've really been a hindrance
for the festive season.
Thn again, its just Common Test.
(but why do i feel so worried?)
Papers til Thursday, cant possibly look forward
to that can I?

Alright, i'll be wasting my day away now thn..

Last night i had a nocturnal emission leg cramp.
Which was needless to say, f***ing painful.
I didnt even tire myself out for the past few days,
been drinking lots of water since i have a sore throat,
plus i eat bananas everyday.
And yet i still get leg cramps.
TWICE.

Cramped, woke up, slept, cramped.
Each lasted 30 seconds?

Im just glad it was a cramp
instead of those weird phenomena
whereby u wake up and cant move,
and u see some black figures in front of ur face,
looking at you.

Been reading up on different types of ghosts
and watching scary vids.
Hope this doesnt get to me anytime during my sleep.



YouTube101:-

- Always check the ratings of the video
1 or 2 stars probably mean its a screamer, or just plain stupid.

- If ratings are disabled, read the comments.
If u start seeing insults to the uploaders grandparents,
it means its a screamer, or just plain stupid.

- If u still wanna see it, make damn sure
you turn down ur volume.

Just making sure none of you end up like
the poor kid over here.
Although it probably already has happened to you.

So this morning i decided i was too sick
to go to school.
Going to chalet means that i would be eating
oily bbq food and drinking truckloads of gassy drinks.
And that was what i exactly did in the weekend
Apparently, whenever i do so, i fall sick.

Yes, i have become that weak.
;_;

Laying in bed all day, i had a long reminiscence
on secondary school life,
especially the 2D moments,
since an additional 2 ppl from 2D
have departed for overseas studies,
making it a total of 5.

I was random enuff to realise that 2D has the letter "D",
which stands for "Departure",
explaining the set of events that took place
over the past year.
Thn again, i was just being random.

Back to recalling the past,
some questions sort of occurred to me.
Why did those school days seem so free,
When actually Poly has a more flexible timetable..
Damn it, why?

Got Common Tests next week.
I dun think i'll be able to squeeze through this time round.
But in order to get a slight dose of optimism,
i quote Mun Wah's PM and a rather widely used quote
in secondary school,

"Common Test only.."

Good news is, Man Utd won, and Chelsea lost..
