Long Time No See

2006-07-30T23:17:00.000+08:00

I don't think anyone will see this post on this day it is published. This blog has gone rusty for so long. The sentences I am typing is no longer containing humour. I guess that is the change whenever your feeling is down.

I decided to repost after feeling bored, don't want to study for my ADVA practical test and rather make it fail, and after seeing my old posts. Some really made me laughed myself. Like one which says something about helping me once will get 1 credit, accumulate 10,000 credits can get a eraser, old soccer posts etc. I guess life was less stressful that time. I don't mean it is very stressful now, but defintely more than last time. By now I typed to this sentence, I hope blogger can ahve spelling checks. Because I definetely had already typed a lot of words wrongly.

To think I am the public relations officer of my FYP team. I sure got some things I would like to blog, but I guess I can't because this is the World wide web, not my own journal. I shouldn't go on and say about how life now doesn't meet my expectations etc. I don't want it to become a girl's blog. I am not sexist here though.

Any first friend or reader who reads this post, you are defintely very bored or you just come across it. tag on the board and you can get a VIP card. Accumulate 200 VIP card and you can get a preview play test of my FYP board game for a discount fee of $19.99. While stocks last.

*Edit I realised the tagboard has failed. However if you can make it work you can get 2 VIP cards

5 minutes ago, I am still playing fifa 2005 and downloading 3d max stuff at the same time. I have not blogged for days and the decision for today's blogging is originally negative. However, after reading Weili's blog, the full force of anger and typoism came back.

I am going to talk into detail about Kee Wei. If you don't know him well, it is a good time for you to understand him and shun him. If you know him well, it is still not too late to shun him.

Let's say about his good points here before we start on the bad ones which would take you about 4 years to finish reading. The good point of him is that he made my workload lesser in this blog post. Why?
Because he has no good points so I have no need to waste time typing about it.

Kee Wei basically has 4 bad points. I have encounter 3 of them in 1 day, today.

First: SMS misuse. From my opinion, he does not use sms wisely. This morning, he called me early in the morning and woke me up, just to say we met at the mrt. I did not contact him yesterday night because I know he like to meet early and it doesn't pair with my policy "Be late than early."
However, since I still have to wake up eventually, I was glad he called me to wake me. However, the bad part came. We were meeting at 7.45. I have already planned the scheldue out. I would reach there on time. Then he start to sms things that slow me down. IN 5 minutes, 2-3 sms came.
They are all of same content moreever. Those "faster la, raining." "come quick leh". However, it is very few sms compared to last time. Perhaps he improved.

Time for the second part. Nagging. When we are on our way, we just got on the train and is just at the 10th min of the 45min trip. He started nagging about we are late already and said the same thing blaming me for about 10-15 times. It is 10-15.
In the end, we reached early in school 5 minutes. The ridiculous part came. He is still blaming me about being late. I flared up a bit and spoke a bit loud" Now we reached 5 mins early lor. What late?"

Third part. Handphone diverting. He called me in the middle of my lesson time and asked a question:" aren't you in class?" Since he knew it, he still called. However, the teacher released early and I continued talking to him.
In the middle, the line got cut off. I called him back and the line diverted to his house. I was like... what to say? Should I say I meant to call kee in the handphone and suddenly got here. Or what? So I just said is kee in?, although I knew the answer.
I am now thinking. If I need to contact him when we are meeting at the mrt stop, it is 7.30am in the morning. If it diverts to his house, wouldn't I be dead meat? Waking up the whole family by 7.30. Not to mention he has caller ID. I am not continuing although there is still a ton to be said.

Fourth part. It did not happen today. But I hate it when it happens. Useless critisism.
We were at the computer lab for WWWP. He said he wanted to see my animation after watching Weili's. I was playing a game and reluctantly opened the file for him to see. Then he start to say," Yucks, your animation sucks.", when he doesn't even know how to do it?.
"it is such a useless piece." I dared him to do 1 better than mine and he just kept quiet.
Otherwise, he knew I supported Man Utd. When they were flying high, he said nothing. This season, due to the overflow of young players, the team performed badly and he started to make comments. "Man Utd die liao la. They sure get relagated.". or "Very lousy leh. Man Utd. I don't want to support them anymore." when he doesn't even support them.

After saying so much, he still has good points not to be overlooked. He is actually a great friend and those things mentioned above is just small small small things. It is because we have so many great friends that we tend to critisise soem of them. Wait till we meet friends that lead you to the path of evil, steal our stuffs when we bring them home etc that we will learn to appreciate a friend like Kee Wei. He just likes to have fun I think, a bit naggy at the most. If he isn't a great friend, we would not be S5 for so long. Let's not say so much, actions matters.* Ran to hug a surprised Kee Wei.

I should do this more often. Perhaps I should make a full feature of S4. PERHAPS.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United's search for a goalkeeper is set to end with the signing of Fulham's Edwin Van der Sar. Old Trafford boss Sir Alex Ferguson has decided to go for the experienced Dutch international, whose contract is running out at Fulham.
A 2m deal for Van der Sar, 34, is close to being agreed. United have considered and been linked with a host of keepers, including Spurs' Paul Robinson and Shay Given of Newcastle. But Van der Sar, who has always performed well against United, has emerged as the best option. At 6ft 6ins, he has the height Ferguson is seeking, in addition to experience and proven ability at the highest level. His arrival will give Tim Howard, in whom United still have great hopes, more time to develop.

Dutch double winners PSV Eindhoven claim United have made an official approach to sign South Korean midfielder Park Ji-Sung.Newspaper speculation continues to link the Reds with a move for the player. Some stories suggest chief executive David Gill will begin negotiations over a transfer when he travels to Holland on Thursday for a G14 meeting.

Daily Man Utd news: Kieran Richardson became the first England player in 30 years to score twice on his international debut and confessed: "It's like a dream." The Manchester United wonderkid grabbed both goals for the Three Lions in a 2-1 win over the USA here in Chicago. And he added: "It's the best day of my career. It is a dream. Scoring for my country is such a great feeling, I'm so honoured and proud. But I'm still in a daze, really. It's hard to put into words how I feel."

Ruud van Nistelrooy wants to sensationally quit Manchester United. The 19million striker is desperate to regain his scoring form so has can lead Holland’s attack in next year’s World Cup finals. Dutch sources claim van Nistelrooy, 28, would move to either Spain or Italy after a season wrecked by injuries and poor form. Barcelona and Real Madrid have bee alerted by van Nistelrooy’s shock decision and he has told pals in Holland that he's on the verge of asking for a transfer.

Alex Ferguson will seal a 3million raid for Lyon's Brazilian play-maker Juninho. The United boss believes he has agreed a deal with the French club for Juninho Pernambucano, 30, who is out of contract next summer. Lyon offered him a new deal and he indicated he would stay – but United’s interest has turned his head.

Back after break

2005-05-28T23:43:00.000+08:00

I know I broke my promise to blog everyday. However, this is just a small break. I was quite lazy to blog these few days and no chance to blog, wasting 10 hours a day mulling about the start of school, 6 hours gaming and 8 hours sleeping. I rarely have time to eat already. Although this is just a small break, I have something to warn all of you. If you frequently visit my blog, you will know I at some point will have a small break, a longer tahn small break, and then it will be 2 to 3 months break liao. I know it will surely not happen with my die-hard mentality.... but it happens about 4-5 times liao. So, treasure it while I still blog everyday.

For the peicai camp things, it will take at least 20 minutes for me to type finish. So, visit www.cuteworm.blogspot.com and www.fart-gas.blogspot.com for information. I shall start with today.

Today there is soccer. As it is school holidays already, my dad brought home a lot of drinks, those that is sold in cups, like milo, lime juice and ribena. There is big bottles of them so my dad asked me to bring to soccer for everyone. They are also very glad to have some "better" drinks than plain water and finished all off.

There is only 2 matches today. 1 is warm-up match, 1 is real match. I scored 1 in warm up, 2 in real match. However, the real match only lasted 10 minutes as there are too many players injured, all from tackles from Fu. Soccer animations coming later.

After that, we had lunch and just parted ways when Ann called. He said he wanted to return vcds here and is about to reach. He asked us to go together and look at more vcds. In the end, I borrowed S.W.A.T., Troy, New Police story and Haunted Mansion. It seems better than last time's choice. Each of us took one and decided to go to Weili's house to play mahjong.

In mahjong, I was super lucky today. Everyone only had 75 chips at first. In the 4th game, I won 10 "tai". The payment was 512, 1024. Fu was the one who threw out the tile, so he had to give 1024. He's dead, everyone only had 75 chips in the beginning, even if he won all, it is impossible to pay. So he owns me 1000 chips as a round off, weili and ann both 500.

However, Mr Ann later won a 256, 512 and written off part of his debt, Fu is the one again paying 500. Hai.... hopeless....

We went off at 7 and I went to my grandma's house then.

Daily Man Utd news: Roy Carroll has been given a free transfer by Manchester United. The goalkeeper's four-year stint at Old Trafford will cease at the end of next month.Media reports had suggested the Northern Ireland goalkeeper would sign a new contract with the Reds this week, but today he is confirmed as one of eight players who are being released by United. Another is fellow shot-stopper Ricardo.

Alex Ferguson is poised to launch a 35million bid for Gianluigi Buffon. The Manchester United boss has made Juventus' No 1 his top target after ditching calamity keeper Roy Carroll.

Manchester United will move for England and Tottenham keeper Paul Robinson after surprisingly releasing Roy Carroll yesterday. But United may have to fork out around 10m - thought to be half the transfer budget allowed by the Malcolm Glazer regime - to tempt the Londoners to sell. Frenchman Sebastien Frey of Parma and Michael Landreau of Nantes are near the top of Fergie's wanted list.

April Fool!

2005-05-24T23:51:00.000+08:00

Today is originally a normal, bird-chirping, starcraft, fifa 2005 day. However, 4 free tickets of Star Wars as promised by Ann Soon changed the day. It was tickets given for free when Ann Soon's sister bought her laptop.

As the tickets can be used only at Cineleisure, S4 met at Somerset at 6pm and went for dinner as we waited for the 7pm show. When the time was up, we went up to the cinema and a shock is brewing up. When we gave the "4" tickets to the person tearing the tickets, she tore the "4" and became 2. That's when we realised that the "4" tickets is only meant for 2 persons. S4 looked at each other and everyone was staring at Ann Soon. He was also having the same shocked feeling and a word just appeared in our head: "SIAN".

However, the unity of S4 decided that we wouldn't choose 2 to go in and watch, leaving the other 2 outside with nothing to do. So, we decided to give the tickets away. However, no 1 accepted S4's kindness as everyone had their own tickets. In the end, we left the 2 tickets at the top of the bin and hoped someone would take it and not waste it.

We went to K pool to play but found it quite expensive. That's when I suggested playing LAN at Dhoby Ghaut. So, after playing pool for one hour, we set off for Dhoby Ghaut. However, that's when Fu poured a big bucket of cold water on us by saying he is not going. He said the transport cost is too high for him to manage when Dhoby Ghaut is ONE, ONE ONE ONE stop away. Just ONE stop and he say that he cannot manage the transport fee. Also, the LAN there is $2 per hour only.

So, the next 30 mins, Weili spent his saliva persuading Fu and only ended up been scolded a devil and been said we 3 were very rich and he was not as rich as us, spenting money at a LAN shop that costs $2 an hour and taking mrt ONE stop away. I wasn't contributing much to the persuading as I had that experience myself.

Last year, when we were just freshman at SP, there is a familiarisation exercise at SP which teaches you some useless computer skills, like how to use the school website etc.. Weili and I had already gone through it and told Fu it was useless. We had soccer on that day he was supposed to go for this training. I spent 45 mins telling him to come to soccer and Weili and I will teach him the useless knowledge. In the end, my efforts gone unnoticed and a sentence, "don't want la. I think I go school." poured cold water on me again.

However, Fu has his own choice and we shouldn't interfere. Perhaps he has something important to do and he couldn't tell us. Perhaps he has a curfew like me. So, we shouldn't blame him just for not coming with us for LAN. ( Fu maybe will visit this website and this is for him. If your name is not Fu, ignore this paragraph.)

The 3 of us then went to play LAN and played CS and Battlefield 1942. It had been a fun day afterall although we missed the movie.

Daily Man Utd news: FA Cup final flop Ruud van Nistelrooy admits he is no longer a goalscoring freak. Manchester United's 19million hitman fears an injury-hit season has robbed him of his striking super-powers. The devastated Dutchman has managed just four goals since returning from a three-month lay-off with an Achilles injury. He confessed: "Before my injury, scoring lots of goals seemed completely normal to me. But since I've come back, I've realised it wasn't normal. Scoring a load of goals is OK, it is routine for some strikers. But scoring goals absolutely all the time — as I did last season — is something super-extreme." Van Nistelrooy hit 30 for United last term — two in their FA Cup final victory over Millwall. But this term he managed just 16 and his misses cost United dear as Arsenal stole the cup in a penalty shootout. The striker, 29, added: "It has not been my season or United's. We just scored too few goals and, of course, I am responsible for that."

Roy Carroll is staying at Manchester United after being reassured by Sir Alex Ferguson he has shelved plans to buy a No1 goalkeeper this summer. Carroll has stalled on signing a three-year deal since Christmas because he did not want to play second fiddle to a new keeper. But with United balking at Tottenham's 8m asking price for Paul Robinson, and Chelsea refusing to allow Carlo Cudicini to move to Old Trafford, Ferguson has told Carroll he will again battle with Tim Howard next season to be No1.

Debt calculation

2005-05-23T23:59:00.000+08:00

Daily Man Utd news: Malcolm Glazer tonight laid bare the extraordinary details of the borrowings required to complete his £790million takeover of Manchester United.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers owner has already stated he intends to use United's assets as security against a £265million loan from bankers JP Morgan.
But, in the details of his formal offer document which was released to shareholders on behalf of Red Football today, Glazer has revealed a succession of steepling interest charges that take the approximate overall cost of the money lent on that loan alone to a massive £570million.
And that figure does not include a bridging loan of £18.9million which has to be paid back in March next year, plus another £90million as a credit and capital expenditure facility, which had never previously been mentioned and could be used to fund the much-heralded stadium expansion.
And there is still another £275million in preferred securities, which it is anticipated he will refinance almost as soon as the deal is done.
If United fans were shaky about the prospect of the 76-year-old American business tycoon running their club prior to Saturday's FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal, those fears will be acutely exacerbated now, with it estimated that the club's debt alone will turn out to be an horrific £650million, over six times the amount which almost sent Leeds to the wall.

Tomorrow? Ok?

Today had soccer against despite us having it just 2 days ago. Again, Indo chinese had their full team present. Last time we played, that's two days ago, Gregory and Stanley were in our team and we scored easily, easier than killing a criminal in Annsoon's custom SWAT game. However, the grouping was a joke this time. The indo chinese were all in 1 team except 1 that joined us. However, he did not bring any boots and was playing bare footed.

In the end, we lost like 30-4 or 40-4. It was just a disastrious ending...

The bright point is, we at least scored 4 goals, considering it is Stanley, a VJC school soccer team representative member and Gregory, someone who's been through Tampines Rovers youth team, guarding the midfield.

I scored 3 of the 4. However, in this technology era, it is too "village" to use words to explain. Let's view the animation provided by Weili Templates and Gary Baluku productions.

Bare footed superman Raymond!

Goalkeeper caught by surprise!

Goalkeeper mistake!

After the soccer, Fu passed me the Fifa that I wished for so long. I originally had the original disk but I returned it. I had been dying to play for so long and Ah Fu burned 1 for me after he bought the pirated copy. I am hooked on it since.

Daily Man Utd news: Real Madrid last night admitted they want to sign Cristiano Ronaldo. Real boss Vanderlei Luxemburgo is even considering converting the Manchester United winger, 20, into a striker. That would push Michael Owen down the Bernabeu pecking order and could pave the way for a swap deal. Luxemburgo said: Cristiano is a very strong kid. He plays on the wing, but could play a bit more as a striker. He's a great player. But signings are something we discuss internally. You always have to be careful."

Roy Keane last night revealed Manchester United's whizkids were left shattered and in tears after being mugged by Arsenal. The United skipper said Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo were absolutely distraught having been the stars of a show that ended in misery. Keane said: "Ronaldo and Rooney were outstanding and they will be back. The young players were very distraught after the game but they will be better for it. We saw from that performance how outstanding they are. It's small consolation to say we were the better team, created all the chances and dominated. I am sure the Arsenal players won't be too bothered about that. They've got the winners' medals and cup. We haven't."

JUST A JOKE ABOVE. WILL ENHANCE IT AT 4AM TONIGHT. DON'T SLEEP AND LOOK OUT FOR MY POST!

Explains the season

2005-05-21T23:53:00.000+08:00

THE GAME WAS THERE FOR THEM TO TAKE. That is what the FA cup final match explaination to Man Utd. They dominated normal 90 minutes, Van Nistelrooy missing quite a few chances and Rooney and Ronaldo creating a dozen of chances. It goes to extra time. Arsenal dominated possesion in this period, HOWEVER, only possession. They caused absolutely no problems for Man Utd back four. Again, Van Nistelrooy missing a sitter. At the end of the period, Reyes got a second yellow and got himself out of the pitch.

It went to penalties. I knew the chances would be only like 30% that they would win the penalties. It is because of the psycological edge. Arsenal kept defending and nearly lost the match a dozen times. Now it went to penalties and they have an EQUAL chance to a team that proved far more superior than them on that fateful night.

Man Utd, on the other hand, had of course lower morale. They just couldn't believe they hadn't won the match through normal play. Let's explain it this way, Arsenal did not even had a shot on target the whole match. Man Utd, got tons of shots. They will mull over their missed chances more and lack of confidence and morale seep into their penalty shootout even so deeply....

From the mood of the above post and my explaination, you should know the outcome. The shootout was 5-4 to the advantage of Arsenal. Who didn't score?
Van Nistelrooy? - who missed such a couple of sitters through the match?

Ronaldo? - who like to show his skills more than playing properly( he played absolutely world class in this final.)

Rooney? - someone who doesn't have a lot of experience yet at 19? (he got man of the match in this match. He at right wing, Ronaldo at right. Their play sucks the breath out of you.)

Keane? - Our ever combative midfielder?

Scholes? - Someone who always chip in goals when we need it most?

It was Scholes. He missed it when he was the second player to take the penalty. Arsenal showned spirit and scored the rest of them giving Man Utd no chance.

If you saw today's New Paper, a Man Utd fan was saying, LOSE, MAN UTD, FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. His meaning is if we win this FA cup, it will only instill complacency in our players and they would be satisfied with this. NO. Fans do not want the FA cup and be happy about it. We want the EPL, Champions League. So, if they lose this, it will tell Ferguson and Glazer, Buy players. It will also show a summary of the season. ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. Dominate, dominate and dominate, lose chances, lose chances and drop points. This definitely is the case tonight.This should knock the senses out of the players. If this loss prompted the Man Utd players to wake up next season, I am willing to give up this FA cup to Arsenal, our bitter rivals.

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd lost the FA Cup final to Arsenal.

On form day

2005-05-20T22:52:00.000+08:00

Today we had soccer although we only have Milo, Weili and Kee turning up. Today I was super on form. I was assigned the left wing position which I turned it into left striker. However, things doesn't go so well everytime. The stupid Topper boot that costs $37, is durable, comfortable but aims like shit!

Several times, 4-5 times, when faced with the opposition goalkeeper, Milo the boots failed me. Milo had already dived in front of me and I still had the ball in control. If it is the Nike boots, it would be a cheeky lob into the goal. With Topper, you get a ground ball straight into Milo's stomach. Although it can be said that my skills are not good, the boots doesn't seem to help me with that.

However, we should cherish the on form part than to mull over the missed chances. I scored a lot of times today. It could be about 7-8 times. However, the opposition also scored a lot. My on form part was when Gregory and Stanley, the two defensive midfielders hadn't arrived. There was the score 8-something. I was involved in 7 of the 8 goals, either scoring or direct assist. However, when they came, it was even better. But they scored many themselves or I was not the direct assist although I was involved.

It was no wonder Roy Keane is so much important to Man Utd. With a defensive midfield, you can get balls more and concede less. So, with the two of them onboard, I scored more and more. The GOOD LUCK part came. As my boots sux at shooting, I would prefer to pass acroos Milo and let them tap in.

Good luck 1: Weili performed a superb trick and Milo is slumped. He was lying in front of me and I tried to lob. However, I lobbed out of target and was already holding my head in despair for missing such a good chance. HOWEVER, Milo recovered and tried to tap the ball away. He tapped into his goal...... I was of course very happy as no one would know I would have missed.

Good luck 2: I got the ball clear at the left. I would have shot a blaster into the goal if it was the old boots. But I already don't have much confidence as I already shot a couple of slow, rolling ground ball into Milo's arms at the last few chances. So, I saw my teammate at my right. I lured Milo to me and passed to him. The ball wasn't going to the originated place I was aiming. BUT, a defender came and blocked the ball.......yes....into his own net.

Good luck 3: This should be in good luck 1 because it is the first goal. I remembered it until now. I got the ball at the right wing after the corner. It was a tight angle but I still shot. It was a normal straight shot and Milo would have saved it easily. HOWEVER, Kee Wei was in front and deflected the ball.....yes...into his own goal.

As the field is quite small, plus the fact that I got intructions to be at the left wing position, I naturally kept loitering there. However, Daniel came and asked if I would liked to bring a tent.I asked why. He said I was always camping there. The field is so small, I must be on the left, I couldn't possibly be at my own part of the field as I am attack-minded. So, the area that I stand is quite limited. I don't quite accept his comments. Perhaps a lot of goals is scored by there. Who knows?

After soccer, I and my parents went to Canton Wok to eat. We ordered fried brinjas, Yuan Yang Spareribs and Portoguese sauce Pork Chop. This is all ordered by Weili's recommendation, and it is their shop's specialty dishes.

However, I don't think it is anything special. The fried brinjas, I wont know it is brinjas if it is not written. They fried it into such a crispy form that there is no brinjas left anymore, only the crispy outer layer. Special taste though.

The Portoguese sauce Pork Chop, the sauce isn't quite special when I tasted it. It tastes like curry sauce. However, combined with the crispy pork chop, it is still quite a tasty dish.

Yuan Yang Spareribs. Perhaps we were full when this arrived. The spareribs isn't very good. I have already tasted coffee and sweet-and-sour spareribs too many times. So, I feel that it is quite normal. However, since it is going to move, we have to taste it once afterall.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United have targeted Michael Owen as their major summer signing. Boss Alex Ferguson sees the Real Madrid striker as the answer to United's problems up front after their worst goals tally in 15 years. The Reds have been in touch with Owen's agents and the England star is interested in talking to United after failing to establish himself in Spain. New owner Malcolm Glazer has given United the green light to go for Owen after promising Fergie 20m to spend this summer.

Sir Alex Ferguson has told his Manchester United players he intends to stay in charge at Old Trafford for at least the next three years. Malcolm Glazer's controversial takeover had placed a question mark over Fergie's future, but winger Ryan Giggs revealed the United boss has assured the players he is staying. Giggs, who has just signed a new three-year deal, said: "The boss encouraged me to sign and indicated he would be here for at least that length of time. He said he wants to stay for a number of reasons. He wants to get United back to the top and to see the likes of Wayne Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo and Darren Fletcher become world-class players. The manager also wants to win more trophies and make sure that when he does eventually go, he goes on a high."

Kieran Richardson, 20, will have talks next week in a bid to decide whether he goes back to West Brom on loan next season — or stays at United to push for a first-team place.

FA Cup final on this saturday!

2005-05-19T23:49:00.000+08:00

Just finished watching Final Destination 2. I am going to look for Final Destination 1 and pray they come out with a third series.

Daily Man Utd news: Sir Alex Ferguson has conceded Gabriel Heinze is losing his battle to be fit for the FA Cup final with Arsenal later this month.
The Argentine international is struggling to recover from an ankle injury he picked up against Newcastle last month.
Heinze damaged ankle ligaments after falling awkwardly in Manchester United's 2-1 win at Old Trafford.
Ferguson had hoped the left back would be back in time to play in the Cardiff showpiece on May 21, but now admits he is facing a race against time to face Arsenal.

Future dimmer and dimmer....

2005-05-18T11:12:00.000+08:00

Daily Man Utd news: Malcolm Glazer was last night faced with the news Manchester United have slumped to fourth in the table of earnings from TV cash and prize money by Premiership clubs this season. Chelsea (50.8million), Arsenal (48.7m) and Liverpool (47.4m) earned more than United (44.4m) who have paid the price for a poor season in the Champions League and finishing third in the Premiership again.
(All money in pounds)

Kieran Richardson last night promised to cure England's left-sided midfield problem as he and Fulham's Zat Knight were called up to tour the USA. Manchester United kid Richardson and defender Knight were drafted in by manager Sven Goran Eriksson yesterday when Shaun Wright-Phillips and Matt Upson pulled out through injury. For Richardson, international recognition capped off a remarkable four months in which he helped West Brom remain in the Premiership during a successful loan spell.

Richardson, 20, said: "There have been a few people drop out but this just shows how well I have been playing recently for West Brom. Playing regular football you get more time to show people what you can do and I have grown in confidence and have been doing well. It is possible I can play on the left for England. I believe in my ability and I can play on the big stage."

Badminton Day 1

2005-05-17T21:47:00.000+08:00

Today is day 1 of our badminton marathon. There is only S4, kee is not here. So, we just paired up and started our match.

In the first match, I was raring to go but everyone can see Weili, my partner obviously hadn't had enough sleep. He was out of form and the "handball" he invented was not going over the net and that costed points. So, we lost the first match.

Second match I was paired with Fu and we won it, not much memory about the match.

Third match was with Ann Soon and we won it super easily. Weili and Fu was wasting their serves and they weren't getting points at all. In the end it was about 14-1 when Ann and me started to be madman and keep hitting undernet to give them some points.

The second phrase is singles.

First match was I and Weili. Weili hadn't recovered his form and lost 15-0.

Second match was with Ann Soon. I used the left...right...left...right...way and got him losing 15-3.

Third match was with Fu and it was the same scoreline with Ann. However, the match went longer because Fu recover very fast so the left-right tactic isn't working on him. He still lost in the end with a small score as he didn't score with his serves.

Then I got myself into a revenge match with Ann. We played until both going to collapse laio still don't give up and played like 2 madmen. In the end, I won 15-9.

We then went to eat and chat. We also went to rent some vcds. I got myself Alexander. All I have to say about the movie is that the bad reviews were correct.

Daily Man Utd new: Alex Ferguson has told hs Manchester United players to start taking responsibility for their failures. The Old Trafford boss ordered them to rescue a poor season with FA Cup victory over Arsenal in Saturday's final. But that will not disguise an awful Premiership - by the manager's high standards - and another early exit from Europe. The team that used to score for fun has misfired this season - and it is against teams from lower down the league where they have failed most. Ferguson said: "Missing chances has happened through-out the season. That has to stop."

Alex Ferguson has been told to name his price to stay at Manchester United. Malcolm Glazer yesterday seized control of over 75 per cent of United shares, enabling him to make the club his private company. But the US tycoon wants boss Fergie on his side to appease angry fans. He is ready to double Ferguson's current deal to 8million-a-year AND scrap the manager's rolling contract with a four-year deal - that matches anything Roman Abramovich is giving to Jose Mourinho.

Confirmed takeover

2005-05-16T23:07:00.000+08:00

Today is the registration for GEMs in SP. S5 got in the same course but Fu Shun got into a different time slot from the other 4 of us. Ann Soon is the one registering for him instaed of Fu registering himself. I knew they had a feud long ago, must be last time Ann Soon smacked Fu's face in badminton and feel it is not enough. Let him be alone at GEM is the best way to make him suffer. So, he deliberately chose a different time slot for him.

Ok... let's stop talking about Ann Soon. Ann Soon wanted badminton this week and I suggested a 3-day badminton since it is so cheap and we have nothing to do at home. He agreed and I went to book it today starting from tomorrow. The staff there was quite shocked I was booking it for 3 continous days. However, badminton doesn't take up as much energy as soccer so S5 could cope with it quite well.

There is originally soccer today.
I think most of you will ask: " Isn't soccer just pass on this saturday, so fast another session?"
I think is because I got a new pair of boots, so I am quite enthusiatic about it. I was thinking about soccer on monday during sunday. However, we normally take a week's rest after soccer, so it isn't quite posible.
However, Weili suddenly ask out of the blue:" Very bored leh, tml soccer la"
I was shocked to hear it but he got the same level of shock when I answered "ok".
However, it was cancelled as most of them withdrawn at the last minute.

Daily Man Utd news: Malcolm Glazer has gone through the crucial 75 per cent barrier which will allow the American to take Manchester United off the Stock Exchange. The American business tycoon has already pledged to delist United `not less than 20 days' after he reached the 75 per cent mark.

Sir Alex Ferguson will announce in the next 24 hours his decision to stay at Old Trafford and work with new owner Malcolm Glazer. And in a remarkable turnaround, Manchester United's chief executive, David Gill, and his entire management team will follow Ferguson's lead by also pledging their allegiance to the American entrepreneur, who has pulled off his amazing 800million takeover.

West Brom survived!

2005-05-15T23:22:00.000+08:00

Nothing to say and no time to say. Tomorrow post more to compensate. S5 is now deciding which GEMs to tak.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United put out a full strength line up against Southampton in today's relagation survival fight among Southampton, Cystal Palace, West Brom and Norwich. This is compared to a weakened line up against West Brom last week who drew 1-1 with them. They won 2-1 in the end, knocking Southampton to Division 1 next season.
Norwich lost 6-0 at Fulham, down also.
Cystal Palace was originally leading the fight, however fell to a Charlton equalisator, drew 2-2 in the end. It can be said as bad luck so they are down too.
Hero team of the day West Brom won 2-0 at homr and survived in the EPl although they will be taking fruit baskets to Man Utd tomorrow to thank them for fielding a weakened line up when against them, and now killing off their enemy Southampton.

Militant Man Utd fans plan to sabotage the FA Cup final with a mass pitch invasion to vent revenge on new owner Malcolm Glazer. They plan to storm barriers, dodge security and handcuff themselves to goal posts during the club's showpiece clash with Arsenal next Saturday. If successful, it will bring their anti-Glazer campaign a worldwide audience. And in a move that will disgust genuine soccer fans, a network of hardened football hooligans have been primed to cause havoc across Europe during the Champions League campaign - in the hope that UEFA football bosses will kick Man Utd out. The drastic measures come as American tycoon Glazer is on the brink of completing a 790million take-over of the club.

Nearer and nearer

2005-05-14T23:17:00.000+08:00

Malcolm Glazer took his shares at Manchester United to 74.81% yesterday night. If he can get the required 75%, he is the officially the owner of Manchester United. The board can't go anything or oppose to anything he wants to do. He can raise the ticket price to even Bill Gates can't enter. Let's stop on those topics.

Today's soccer is normal. I tried out my new pair of boots. It is about same as the old "total 90" pair. However, it is very loose, the sole is very slippery. It means that my foot keep sliding in and out of the boot. There is a time when I wanna volley and the whole boot flew together with the ball. Lucky never hit anyone....

I mentioned at my previous post that Nike shoes are not durable, I think Weili will agree with me now. I don't have much to blog considering 95% of my time is spent worrying about Glazer and when will he die.

However, one big worry of me is that I am afraid my knee is injured. It is my right knee. I think it is because of a tackle made by Milo. He is the keeper and I am through all the way to his goal. He chiong forward and slide on me. Although I managed to get the ball out of his tackle, he got me instaed. Like This:

I was running throught to goal and Milo slided me from the side.

Now, my right knee would hurt whenever I finish soccer. I guess it is because I worked it hard again in soccer so it would hurt. Normally it is ok. I seriously hope it is no problem. I have no money to go see a physio! This is a picture to make you more clear:

Area of injury

It is time to end the post. Goodnight.

Daily Man Utd news: Malcolm Glazer's son Joel has spoken for the first time about the Glazers' takeover of Manchester United.The Glazer family have now made a formal offer for the club having acquired 74.81 per cent of the club's shares. Joel insists they firmly intend to work with the current management, players and fans.

He said: "We are delighted to make this offer to acquire one of the pre-eminent football clubs in the world."We are long-term sports investors and avid Manchester United fans."Our intention is to work with the current management, players and fans to ensure Manchester United continues to develop and achieve even greater success."

Manchester United’s new owners are determined to include Sir Alex Ferguson in their takeover deal, it emerged yesterday. US tycoon Malcolm Glazer and his team "definitely" want Fergie to stay on at Old Trafford, according to aides. As Glazer snapped up more shares in United, taking him within inches of full control, it emerged he has already met the veteran manager. And he has urged both Fergie and United’s chief executive David Gill to carry on following the £800million-plus takeover which has angered thousands of fans. Advisers also promised that United would be given a transfer kitty of at least 100million over the next five years. And they pledged no dramatic increases in ticket prices.

Malcolm Glazer last night enraged Manchester United fans by claiming he and his family were "avid'" supporters of the Old Trafford club. Glazer's charm offensive to try to win over United fans following his 790million takeover of the club backfired in spectacular fashion as fans called it "an insult to our intelligence". Although Glazer tried to appease furious United fans by assuring them he wants Sir Alex Ferguson to stay in charge, his claim to be a loyal fan was too much for many to stomach.

A dark day of Manchester United

2005-05-13T21:21:00.000+08:00

Today there will be no personal records of what I have done. The biggest thing in the history of Manchester United and the things fans feared most had happened. Malcolm Glazer had bought over the lion's share of Man Utd shares from Cubic Expression, owned by JP McManus and John Magnier. He could be said as officially bought over Manchester United Football Club.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson is heading for the exit at Manchester United after he was knifed in a 790million pounds takeover by Malcolm Glazer. Glazer now owns ABOUT 70% OF THE CLUB. JP McManus and John Magnier yesterday triggered the deal by selling out to the American tycoon. The pair, Fergie's rivals since the Rock of Gibraltar racehorse row, made a 76m profit as Glazer paid 227m for their 28.7 per cent holding in the club.

Glazer, who now has control of the Red Devils, will want to make wholesale changes. That could see boss Fergie pushed out or even make the jump himself after 18½ years at Old Trafford.

Fans feared for the future of Manchester United last night after American tycoon Malcolm Glazer grabbed control. They threatened a series of banner-waving PROTESTS, a mass BOYCOTT of games and money-spinning merchandise - and even held out the prospect of setting up a NEW club. They believe ruthless Glazer, 76, will have to squeeze more cash from them to pay for his 790.3million takeover bid. And they warned the club would be left so debt-ridden it might never again afford to buy stars like 30million striker Wayne Rooney — and could even risk losing its Old Trafford stadium.

Alex Ferguson's day of disaster hit rock-bottom as he faced up to losing Nigerian wonderkid John Obi Mikel to Chelsea. Nigerian star Mikel, 18, wants to rip up his deal with the Red Devils to join Chelsea from Lyn Oslo. He said on Norwegian TV last night: "I don't think I want that contract anymore. I was pressured to sign it by two representatives of United and Lyn's sporting director Morgan Andersen."

New Blog Picture

2005-05-12T18:43:00.000+08:00

If you are observant, you should notice a change of picture at the top right hand corner of my blog. That is the picture showing Man Utd players applauding to the new Premiership champion, Chelsea. This picture can show what we have been doing all season. Trying to catch them but only the chance to applaud them at the end.

Yesterday went to Sengkang Community Library at Compasspoint to borrow some books and 95% of course is The Hardys series. I have been going there once or twice since I found a new source of Hardy Boys books. However, the bad news is I had borrowed from there the last of the series I have not read. That means there is no more use for the library to be there anymore.

Tomorrow I will be going to Queensway Shopping Centre to collect my jersey that costs $30 and buy a new pair of soccer boots that will cost at least $50. Money, money and money.... From my personal experience, I will not recommend Nike soccer boots that are made in Asia. However, that is my personal point. Weili had been wearing it too but he had no problem with it.

I guess I will get myself a pair of Umbro boots. Although it doesn't look as fancy as Nike ones, but I think it will be more durable.

Daily Man Utd news: Gary Neville described Tuesday night's lap of 'honour' around an empty Old Trafford as one of the lowe points of his Manchester United career. The ground was almost deserted before the whistle blew on their 3-1 defeat by Chelsea.

Neville said: "That was the biggest kick up the backside we could have wished for. From the last 20 minutes of the game to the walk round at the end, it felt as low as it could possibly get in your own stadium - but I totally understand why the fans weren't there. They come every week and give so much but we haven't done the business for them. It was a very empty and lonely feeling. You don't forget moments like that." Even boss Alex Ferguson was left speechless by the empty seats as he decided not to deliver his traditional end-of-season address.

Back!!!!!! for the 109th time

2005-05-11T17:10:00.000+08:00

Mr Li had been nagging for us to blog or else we will be struck off his blog's link. WE must fight to survive in his list! So many people are visiting his blog everyday. He may become the next "XiaXue". So, we must try and stay in his blog so when his turn to be famous comes, we are a part of it! I even thought of a alias for him if he ever becomes famous (this took me 24 sleepless nights to think of it!). The name is............. XiaLam. I know it sounds like XiaLan, however, that is the objective.

Daily Man Utd news: Horrible horrible day for the once glorious Manchester United. Their era had gone and has been replaced by a new BLUE force.

Champions Chelsea pulled off one of the season's classiest comeback wins - to beat Manchester United by 3-1 at Old Trafford.The Blues dictated the last half-hour to reach 94 points - beating United's Premiership record by two - as well as wrecking the unbeaten home term of Alex Ferguson's full-strength side.

Humiliated Manchester United performed a lap of honour to an almost empty Old Trafford as newly-crowned champions Chelsea piled on the misery with a record-breaking display. Sir Alex Ferguson and his dejected players performed their end-of-season routine, but thousands of furious United fans had left well before the final whistle. It was an embarrassing end to the season for Fergie and United, who saw Chelsea stretch their lead over them to 20 points.

However, as fans, we can still send out the message that we support United, we're Red till we die, and we are not backing down. Anyone who can't get over the fact that it's possible for us to lose games and don't believe in the team enough to think we're capable of making a comeback next season should go support Chelsea. They'd be doing the rest of us a favour.

Nothing to blog about

2005-04-08T19:09:00.000+08:00

I actually wanted to blog today. However, I simply have no enthusiasm to do so. So, don't bother checking my blog if it is updated. I will post on msn when it is. So, continue to update YOUR blog for me to see. Ok?

Daily Man Utd news: Sir Alex Ferguson has been forced to accept that he must strengthen his Manchester United side this summer with virtually no money to spend. The United boss has been told he must sell before he can buy after blowing all of this summer's transfer budget on the 30million pounds capture of Wayne Rooney.

Old Trafford chief executive David Gill revealed that Fergie has reluctantly conceded he must generate his own transfer kitty through the sale of existing United players. "As manager, Alex will want more and more," said Gill. "And at some point you have to say no. Alex will respect that and he doesn't sulk. We are very pleased with the compsition of the squad, so any funds for new acquisitions will be paid for by disposals."

7-a-side Competition!

2005-03-27T22:42:00.001+08:00

Before I start, let me tell those who don't understand this competition. This competition is organised by Serangoon RC and there are 7 teams participating. We are going to play a league system. For those who don't understand football, I type a quick brief.

All the 7 teams are in a group. Each team must fight the other 6 teams. If you win, it is 3 points, draw is 1 point, lose is 0. In the end, the top 4 team in the group go into semi final and fight again. 10 minutes per half. No half time break.

Let's have a commentary on the 7 teams.

SMU - Our friend, Jamadil's team. They are playing in a league outside so they have regular training session and even a coach.

SC Milan - They are a team together with SMU. They just divide into 2 teams to play this competition and to have a better chance of winning.

Tamil Tigers - A group of tamil people. Age vary from 12-20.

SK 147 - A group of teenagers. Tall and strong.

RUST - A group of uncles. All weigh at least 80kg. Most weight 100kg and above. Size is very big but speed is slow.

Winning 7 - A group of extremely young secondary school aged players. No proper kit, training or players at all.

Winning 8 - That is my team. Formed by a malay named Maxx and indo chineses. All had proper technical training and most are in school teams, all play with aggressiveness. Milo and me are in because they don't have enough players agreeing to play.

I reached at 9 as agreed but no one except milo is there. Slowly, they come 1 by 1. I was surprised to see the full indo chinese team, most not registered. They are going to play ignoring the rules that only 8 players are allowed, 7 on field, 1 substitute.

I was so bored there. They just speak in their language and keep talking about tactics. A friend of Maxx was here also and they let him join immediately. I was thinking, I am surely a substitute for all the games. I don't even have a jersey same as them and they all wear a standard jersey.

Very fast, the first match started. I wasn't in the starting line up of course and they didn't even talk to me. I just sat and watch them.

First match - against SC milan. SC milan seems a different class at all and Maxx missed a chance when facing empty goal. They subbed 1 player but it wasn't me. I only had the chance to watch. Maxx friend, someone none of us had seen before, was in starting line up. However, he did nothing at all. Milo, our keeper made some mistakes and at least 1 led to a goal. They lost 3-0.

While waiting for next match, they were discussing about Maxx's missed chance when they suddenly called me. They said I am in for the next match. Striker position. It is against SMU, the strongest team and I wonder why they called me, a player they think weakest in their line up.

Second match - SMU. Again, entirely different class. As a striker, I only got the ball once and it was gone in a split second. Milo again made mistakes and led to goals. 3-0 losing the game.

We were all in downcast mood after losing the second game on the roll. Although we know they are the best in the competition, we still couldn't accept it, especially the indo chineses, as they really thought they had a good chance before the competition, with so many of them in school teams.

Weili then came to watch the competition and to at least accompany me. There is no one to talk to there and Milo is always in a downcast mood. However, the reward came for him. Winning 7, a team also settling at the bottom table, suddenly suffered a lack of players and their match had started. They just wanted any one who can play soccer to help them in this match. Weili is an automatic choice! However, he didn't score in that match and he was a defender for the match.

Third match - Tamil Tigers. I am not in the line up again. I should have knew it when I didn't score against SMU, especially not getting the ball at all, but the fault should be on the midfielders. The match was an equal one. One of the best chances came when Stanley crossed the abll in Maxx's direction. There was no one marking Maxx and if he got the ball, there is 90% that he can score. He looked to get the ball under control when he raised his leg up to receive the ball. However, it went beyond his leg and went out. Everyone was holding their head with their arms and can't believe Maxx missed such a good chance, considering they are our best player.
Just as the match is approaching a deadlock, The tigers kicked a shot at the side but Milo didn't block it well and it went under his body into the net. Lost 1-0.

The indo chineses were very angry after losing the match and one of the agressive midfielders, Gregory, was shouting at Maxx missing that golden chance. After this loss, chances were low that we will make the top 4.

We must win all our remaining matches and score about 20 goals without conceding any to have a small chance of qualifying for top 4 on goal difference, providing Tamil Tigers lose all 3 matches remaining.

Fourth match - SK 147. I am in the starting line up and I am not so pressured to score because everyone was sure they would be out and Maxx will still be scolded more even if I missed chances in this match. The first half ended 0-0. The defenders are having an argument defending me and I so wanted to laugh.
I was at right, keeper shouted right defender to mark me. He ran very clsoe and marked me tightly.
I ran left. The right defender don't care liao, because got left defender. However, he didn't see me. I deliberately waved to Milo to pass to me to let the left defender see me. However, the right one just shouted at him to mark me. He very unhappy and say ," Know la".
When he came, I ran right again and they just keep shouting at each other to mark me.

I stood at the centre of the two and they both didn't stand close to mark me. There is a breakthrough at the midfied and Gregory passed the ball to me. I turned and fend off the two defenders who were sandwiching me. I shot the ball into the low right hand corner. GOAL!!!!
I was very happy to score but I didn't celebrate as we were almost already out. However, the normal quiet and agressive Stanley ran over and jumped and hugged me, shocking me. They were all so happy and I guessed it is becaue at least we scored. Later, Stanley also scored one at half area as the keeper slipped the ball. The stanley is different from the footie lads' stanley. This one is an indo chinese.

Fifth match - RUST. We knew we had to win this game. I am the automatic first choice because I scored at the last game. However, the physical strength of that team won over us. Their lack of speed also didn't trouble them as the field is very small. We lost 2-0 and I didn't get the ball much. Our chance of making the top 4 officially ended.

Last match - Winning 7. They were the worst team of all but in the end we drew 0-0. It is perhaps everyone was tired physically and mentally. I almost got a yellow card though. The defender elbowed my face and my spectacles fell off. I took it up and showed to the referee and he almost gave me a yellow card thinking I was scolding him for Kayu as I was holding the spectacles and showing it to him, like " Can you see a not? Do you need a pair of spectacles?"

In the end SMU, SC Milan, RUST and Tamil Tigers went throught to semis. SMU got the champion and SC Milan the runner ups.

I went home by 5 and had to prepare to go to my cousin's wedding immediately, no time to rest.
Not even to say about the uncompleted OOPM assignment that is to be handed up tomorrow. I will at least reach home by 11 and it is surely too late to complete the assignment.

Daily Man Utd news: Iker Casillas last night confirmed he would be interested in a move to Manchester United. The 24-year-old Real Madrid keeper has confirmed United have made an offer to him. And he insists that if he can't sort out a new contract with Madrid, then Old Trafford would be a likely destination. He said: "For a long time Manchester United have been interested in me. An offer has been put to my agent but, for me, money is not everything in life. I like the Premiership and United is one of the few clubs that I would go to if I were to leave Spain. I've spoken with Sir Alex Ferguson several times after matches and I know that he likes me."

Cough's up!

2005-03-20T23:49:00.000+08:00

The flu is gone but a cough is up. My body is falling apart.... There's nothing to blog about anyway. Even Asian best blogger Xia Xue didn't blog everyday, missing several days in a row sometimes, or should I say now. She posted some riddles on the blog and asked people to guess it. She said she would post the answers on the following day. The result: Multiple day without blogging. I guess some people already died waiting for the answers.

I felt weird today. I did nothing the whole weekend despite this being the assignment month. This is the month when assignments are all due. During this period last semester, I was reaching home late almost everyday. This semester was extremely extremely slack. I did nothing everyday.

DVID - I am director. I am only busy on that day of filming. The remaining parts is only to confirm the editor present the feeling the whole group wants in the video.

DAUD - This one only do during DAUD lessons. No one brought it home to do.

OOPM - Everyone was doing it like hell. Everyone took it home and improved their codes, did everything. I just left it in M drive and do it during OOPM practicals. I don't know if I will score well in this. I do not understand OOPM much so it wouldn't make much of a difference if I took the codes home.

SYPC - Who cares about that boring module. The teacher slack, making us slack too.

STSC - Whenever it is assignment due date, the night before it will be the time I start.

Before I end the post, I would like to comment on DVID. I don't know what the teacher is basing her marks on. I got a "B". I wouldn't say my video is good enough for a "A". However, it is definitely better than some others who have got the same grade. I will not continue, it will be faster scolding out of the window than typing here.

I went to cut my hair today, after finishing filming Assignment 2 DVID video. I heard a familiar voice when I was seating down and found out it was Weili's brother. However, after I finished, he was still cutting his hair. That's why I found out why. He was keeping his old hairstyle, a quite of bowl style, not opting for the various hip hairstyles provided there. I guess the hair stylist take a longer time on such requests.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United beat Fulham 1-0 in yesterday night's EPL clash. However, angry Alex Ferguson went on the warpath last night and promised to axe some of his star players unless they pull their socks up.

Manchester United chief Fergie was furious after watching his side almost throw away victory. Only the woodwork and several stunning saves from keeper Tim Howard preserved the slender lead handed to them by Cristiano Ronaldo's first-half goal. And Fergie issued a warning that he is now willing to break hearts when he names his FA Cup semi-final team to face Newcastle next month.
He fumed: "We have players like John O'Shea and Alan Smith who are fresh and maybe they will come in for that game. That is the challenge I am throwing down to the players. If the level of performance does not improve by the semi-final, there will be changes. It's down to them because performances matter at this club. Fulham had two fantastic chances towards the end and we should have won the game a lot earlier than we did. It was disappointing."

A series of unfortunate events

2005-03-19T16:05:00.000+08:00

I am back again... I guess this sentence is used about 1926 times. I always stop blogging for a long time and come back blogging furiously. I guess the passion is not so high as the first time the blog started.

As you can see from the title, I am going to talk about it. It's not about the movie though, although Weili had been saying he wanted to go and watch it, from one thursday when we skipped DAUD and went to watch Kung Fu Hustle. He saw the ad and said he wanted to watch it. That was before DAUD assignment 1, and we are already working on assignment 3 now. So, you can see how long ago it is.

Let's start talking about the events. It started from thursday. I woke up with my head spinning and a flu. It seems to subside during school but it came back to full force during the journey back home.

Friday - I felt a bit better and had to go to school to do our DVID assignment. That's when Weili said the brief required the assignment to be 7 min long, including credits. Our video was 9 plus minutes long, so you know how much effort we put in to cut it.

I thought the flu was recovering but it came back again at dinner time! I went to bed by 9 for that reason.

Today was soccer day. My headache had recovered. It truly recovered this time. The flu was still haunting me though.

However, due to the flu, I couldn't play soccer normally. I was out of breath very fast and my legs had no power. The whole body was so tired. So, I had a hard time scoring goals freely as I usually did. Another thing that added on to it was the indo chinese team was weakened compared to the one I scored 5 against last week. I stuggled to score even 1. I couldn't outrun the small kid that was marking me.

Thinking about the last few weeks when I was on top form, scoring at least a hat trick, I ran on hoping to score the first.

However, through the 1 hour first half, I can't score even 1. After the half, the indo chineses seem possessed. Their whole team was up attacking. I called Kee Wei to stop going up front and go be a defender. I will be the lone striker upwards. However, I tried to lob the keeper whenever I get the ball, 3 times lobbed, 3 times failed. It is a far cry from my usual pinpoint lobbing.

At last, I got a goal. Stanley passed a high ball to me. I dribbled past the keeper but he followed me and blocked my angle. I made a quick turn and shot the ball, letting him no time to tackle my ball. The ball went in, but I sprained my ankle doing that.

I couldn't continue and they ended pretty soon after that. The indo chineses wanted to join the 7-a-side soccer competition held next sunday and they included me. I looked at my poor form today and the sprained ankle, not to mention the struggling right side boot, the tearing left side boot, I am not sure if I would go there to help or harm them....

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson warned Chelsea they will NEVER be as big as Manchester United after revealing he is ready to stay on as manager. Jose Mourinho’s Blues are on the verge of a Premiership and Carling Cup double and in the Champions League quarter-finals.

But Fergie said: "Chelsea played Barcelona last week but all the attention was on our game with AC Milan. We are global with millions of fans all over the world, in Europe America and Asia. Manchester United is more than football." Ferguson has vowed to stay at the helm and recapture the Premiership title and the European Cup.
His rolling contract kicks in at the end of this season. He insisted:"I am willing to stay on. "We are building a new great team, we have some of the best talent in the world and some youngsters who will be sure bets in this game and also this business. Why would I retire?”"

One of the best soccer sessions!

2005-02-19T23:15:00.000+08:00

Today is still a normal soccer mania day. Only 4 indo chineses turned up and we had 8 in our team. So, we mixed with them and formed two new teams with 6 in each team.

Jamadil was with Weili's team and Wee Kiat is in my team. I was so demoralised as Jamadil is in the other team. It is not very easy to defeat Jamadil. Especially when he start to get heated up after he is a goal down. He will become mad and dribble past everyone and score a goal in ease.

However, the match still must start. After about 5 minutes, the defender was holding the ball up and I tackled him. He fumbled the ball and I ran some distance before shooting into the goal.
1-0.

Although I scored, I knew Jamadil will become mad and start to score a draw. However, he was very different today. Perhaps he doesn't like being with strangers, the indo chinese. He didn't do anything to try and score a draw but he keep passing the ball to Weili, who was super off form, running without pace, passing without accuracy and crossing the ball to defenders.

Since they are so off form, I will be the one on form. Someone passed the ball to me and I again charged towards goal. However, I pushed the ball too far and the keeper ran forward to get the ball. I just accelerated towards the goal but the keeper was blocking the whole angle. It seems impossible to score but I still try and knock the ball forward. I think it got through the keeper's legs. Because the ball rolled into the goal! 2-0.

THOSE WHO HATE THE POST TALKING ABOUT FOOTBALL CAN LEAVE NOW. BECAUSE THERE IS STILL A LONG WAY TO GO.

Wee Kiat then scored another to make it 3-0 at half time. The second half sees no much action and changes. We won in the end. Wee Kiat and Jamadil leaved after this game although it was still early.

By then, the indo chinese got 2 more players and we got 6. It was just nice and we suggested 6 on 6. We against them.

I was feeling that it was impossible to win because we lack a passing midfield to get the ball to our strikers. We only had defenders and strikers. They had a very short guy, I think even a primary six is taller than him. I don't know his age though. However, he was commanding the 18-19 years old indo chineses positions and tactics. He was shouting here and there. He thought he was a pro. I just couldn't bear him but we were 2-0 down very fast. I was burning with anger over him. I did something very bad. Whenever he got the ball, I ran forward to tackle him, wanting to give him some vicious tackles. However, he always passed the ball whenever I ran forward. So there is no chance.

We had our own team talk during half time. We didn't have a midfielder who was snatching for balls so we moved Weili to the centre midfield as he wasn't getting balls in the wing. As he was in centre midfield, we started off very well during the second half. They weren't getting much balls to their forwards and we were.

In the attack, Fu charged forward from his right defender position and keep on running. He evaded all the tackles and crossed the ball to me. I took a heavy first touch and the ball flew up high. There was no time to stop and shoot so I just volleyed the ball. Goal! 2-1.

The next goal again came from me. Milo kicked a high ball up and I chased it. However, the keeper ran forward to try and get it before me. I just performed a standing scissors kick that lobbed the ball into the goal in a tight agle. We drawn! 2-2

The remaining half ended in a 3-3 draw. The last goal from us is a replay of the first goal.

I then went to my grandma's house at night. Oh my gosh! My cousin was seriously injured! His hands and legs were all bandaged up. It seems like he was knocked down by a car. He said he fell from his bicycle! So serious! He was travelling on the road at high speed when the bicycle chain fell off. His legs was pedalling fast so when the chain fell off, he lost control and flew off onto the road.

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd cruised to a 2-0 win over Everton at Goodision Park to make the quarter fianl of the FA cup. Ronaldo crossed the ball for a Fortune goal in the first half. He then turned scorer when Everton keeper could not hold Scholes free kick and he stabbed it in.

Maths test

2005-02-13T23:13:00.000+08:00

Today is another boring sunday. I was studying maths the whole day but without much progress.
I originally wanted to cut my hair but the damn saloon is closed for the new year. They are so lazy. Weili wanted to have soccer again today as 8 indo chineses are coming but I wanted to cut my hair and study maths so I rejected. In the end, they also didn't go because no one is willing to go.

Tomorrow is maths test. I am not so worried about it but I am more worried about the OOPM practical test. It is so difficult!

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United had beated Manchester City 2-0 to keep up the pace with Chelsea within 9 points. It was a lacklustre performance in the first half and Man City was unlucky not to score. In the second half, it was still the same stalemate until Giggs was introduced. A moment of genius by Keane and Gary Neville provided Rooney with a low cross that took a deflection of Man City defender Dunne to go into the goal.

Rooney turned 'provider' this time as he crossed a ball which Dunne was trying to use his left leg to clear. However, he lobbed it past his own keeper to make it 2-0 for United.

Although they are rivals, Man City seems to have given United a big gift. They beaten and drawn Chelsea this seasons home and away but drawn and lost to United home and away. This narrowed the gap and United had to say thanks.

Finished Audio!

2005-02-12T23:40:00.000+08:00

Today had soccer in the morning and was very tired before it even began because I just slept about 6 hours and it is not enough to me.

Today got only 3 indo chineses who came because the others are overseas. Jamadil came too.
First match- Donny and Joseph with they 3 vs Jamadil and us.

I was already missing numerous chances before the time reaches 10 minutes. I could have scored 4-5 but I didn't even score 1. In the end, Jamadil got fed up and he scored 1. 1-0.

Then, I scored 1 too. I was missing chances again. Then, he scored. 3-0 I scored too. We scored like 4 in the end. I must wait for him to score before I score. However, by that time, I can't catch my breath at all and breathing doesn't seems to help a bit.

In the second match, I volunteered to be goalkeeper. In that match, with Jamadil again, I think I scored 4-5 goals alone. The indo chineses also can't deal with Jamadil.

I went home then and was so tired and slept on the floor after eating. I slept about half an hour and saw the time was 1pm. I quickly bathed and prepare for Weili to come.

He came and we looked at his Football manager saved game first before starting on our audio. We finished it at around 5 and did some java revising. Although it doesn't do much help, he is still patient to help me. Then he helped me finish off a Medal of Honour stage that I can't break. He made it seem so easy.

I then went to my grandma's house and came back at 10.

I remember seeing a show saying asthma cannot be cured. I remember I had asthma when I was very young. It doesn't seem to bother me or even appear now. I was feeling very breathless at the first match and sometimes during soccer. Is that counted asthma? I still can't figure out.

Credit System!

Weili - 1/2+1= 1.5
Ann Soon - 2
Shu Hui - 1
Kee - 0
Fu- 0

So sian... The credit system is going so slowly. I guess the expiry date is around march. If you still can't get the 10000 points to redeem the eraser, all scores will be reseted. It will be a brand new season.
Daily Man Utd news: Ruud van Nistelrooy has revved up his team-mates ahead of tomorrow's Manchester derby by announcing: I'm back next week. The Old Trafford striker returns to training on Tuesday after a three-month lay-off with an Achilles injury.

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson plans to pitch him straight back into action for next Saturday's FA Cup fifth-round tie at Everton. That will allow Van Nistelrooy, 28, to blow off some of the cobwebs before United host AC Milan in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final four days later.

New Year Day!

2005-02-10T23:15:00.000+08:00

I forgotten to update the blog for yesterday. Since there isn't much for today, I will talk more about yesterday. Happy New Year to everyone first!

Yesterday was New Year's Day! However, I slept till 11.30 before waking up. We set off at around 1. We went to my grandma's house first. It was very normal since I go there every saturday.

Then, we went to my father's side. I only go there 1 time a year. However, we reached there quite late, at 5pm. Most of the other relatives had already left, including my uncle working in SP. It was not so lively as last year and everyone was just chatting. They keep saying I grown big sized. However, I don't think so of course. I am one of the smallest guy in my class. They also keep saying I grown quite black. I just told them I played soccer often. It was not like new year's mood at all and we left at 8.

We gathered only 1 time per year and it lasted only 3 hours. It is so weird. I just came home and used the computer.

Today is just a typical holiday day. However, I was looking for the exam timetable when I saw that OOPM is worth 8 credits. It is twice more than the second highest one. It added more stress to me. I took out the OOPM book to read and it was not very reader-friendly. I just hope I don't fail this module.

I saw on Weili blog that he is so angry. Don't know he is angry over who. He don't say also. It makes me so curious. I guess he wont get angry with me making a few benefits over it. So, today garybetting.com has got some odds available for punters to bet. You just tag on my tagboard to bet who is Weili angry with. You bet with credits. Those with no credits go home eat shit.That's the advantage of credits.

Odds-
Ann Soon - 1-5000
Fu - 1-3000
Me - 1-2500
Kee Wei - 1-0.002
Spicer - 1-50000
Councillors - 1-3
Others - 1-1.5

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United fans laid siege to Old Trafford last night as Malcolm Glazer’s latest takeover bid approached D-day. More than 500 supporters turned up at the ground to protest against the American’s controversial 800million pounds move. Demonstrations took a sick twist when furious fans hung a Guy Fawkes-style effigy of Glazer from a lamp-post opposite the statue of Sir Matt Busby. Fans then unfurled a banner with the message: "Warning! Using MUFC may result in serious damage to your health!"

New Blog song!

2005-02-08T23:33:00.000+08:00

You should have seen that I have put a blog song on my blog. If you don't like the song, simply stop it. If you like it, listen to it. This is the theory invented by me. This is the toliet bowl song by Andy Lau, depicting the friendship of toilet bowl and the heroics of it. You must listen to it 1 time at least since you use it everyday.

Yesterday Weili and I went back to school to return our audio eqiupment. We then went to Ang Mo Kio with Ann and Kee to play pool. After pool, it was 3pm. We originally wanted to go Weili's house to play Mahjong. It was called off after Ann refused. I then came home to play Fm2005.

Today is more boring. I woke up at 12.10 due to Weili's phone call. We are meeting to buy new year's clothes together since he had not got his yet. However, none of S5 wanted to go and Weili was lazy. It was again cancelled. I bought it in the afternoon with my parents then. Happy New Year!

Daily Man Utd news: Wayne Rooney lives in fear of one man at Old Trafford — and it is not boss Alex Ferguson. The Manchester United and England striker knows skipper Roy Keane will be on his case the moment he puts a foot wrong. He said: "It’s hard to appreciate just how good the Manchester United players are unless you train with them. But Roy Keane is just brilliant, always pushing the players on. I found out straight away if you make a mistake, Keaney will be on you, telling you to concentrate and not mess things up. Training is hard work, no messing about. I discovered that right from the first session. You have to put tackles in because everyone wants to win."

Audio Completed!

2005-02-06T23:10:00.000+08:00

Today is an extremely tiring one. We had soccer in the morning although we also had in yesterday. We were all addicted. However, due to the exhaustion of yesterday, our form today was a bit low.

Kum Sin didn't come today due to a virus. We had absolutely no defenders at all. The normal attacking me had to be a defender for the whole first half. I was not outstanding and was just running here and there touching the ball a few times. The opposition scored a goal with only 5 minutes gone. Both didn't score afterwards.

It was the second half. Our team was lacking a centre midfielder and the uncles, which was on our team, asked for 1 defender with attacking instincts to go up. I was originally unwilling to go, because either I be a striker, or a defender. I hate to be in the middle running here and there fighting for the ball. However, Joseph and Fu Shun wanted me to go up. So I agreed in the end.

However, after 10 minutes, I became a attacking midfielder, and after 5 more minutes, I became the striker. I just couldn't resist the temptation to go up. Moreover, another uncle joined us and he was the centre midfielder. No one was calling me to go back so I was quite happy to stay as the striker. However, things didn't go smoothly as Weili was originally injured yesterday so he was like a ghost roaming around the pitch doing not much. I also couldn't get any ball as the midfield of the opposition was so strong.

Both didn't score in the end and there was a third half. This half was more slack as most of them had lost their energy. That's when Weili and me soared. I scored a goal early like 3 minutes. I also took a throw in which Weili flicked on for another striker to score. I forgotten the scoreline but it was another grueling match.

My thumb was injured as I cracked it when I was trying to fend off a defender. However, the defender said I stepped on his feet when I felt nothing. His whole toenail dropped off. My shins were all injured due to the shin guards I wore. I don't know how they got injured.

After we finished and had lunch, it was already 1pm. Weili came to my house to do audio at 3. However, both of us played Fm2005 till 4 before we started.

We finished indoor sounds by 6 and went to Ang Mo Kio at 7. We walked a long way to a place where Milo said existed bowling. We didn't find any and he said it must have closed down. We had no choices but to do pool sounds. We played for a while before continuing. Weili lost all 5 matches against me because he is been in damn bad luck. In all 5 matches, I only won 1 match through hitting in the lalck ball at the end. The other matches was because he hitted in the black ball illegally. Even when he was hitting the black ball at the last, he poked the white ball in too. That's counted loss.

After we finished, we went to look for ping pong balls before leaving home. He came back to my house again and we continued to record some sounds we thought of through the journey., AT 11.30, we went down to the void deck and basketball court to record sounds, making such noise pollution.

We finished digitising everything by 1 and that's the time Weili left.

Daily Man Utd news: It took Manchester United a little time to get into their stride at Old Trafford but in the end they ran out comfortable 2-0 winners against Birmingham City.
Roy Keane scored the Reds’ first goal in the 56th minute and Wayne Rooney followed that with the second eleven minutes from the end.
This game was always going to be something of an anti-climax after the blood and thunder of Tuesday's Highbury clash with Arsenal. But, after a rather sluggish opening half, United picked up the threads and were ultimately very good value for the three points.

STSC comic handed in!

2005-02-04T22:36:00.000+08:00

The STSC comic is finally handed in. We only took 1 day to complete it. So, the effect isn't quite there even though we did our best. There doesn't seem to be anyone laughing when they read the comic. It is so disheartening when we have did our best to make them laugh. Weili deliberately drew the characters madly funny, especially mian. It was his own creation. Let's not talk about it.

There is actually nothing to talk about. The whole holiday is such a boring one with 3 tests coming up and audio assignment to complete.

Ann Soon accompanied us to 'Securing your PC' GEM as he has to wait 4 hours for collection of AV equipment. Poor thing. He was just listening to mp3 the whole lesson and Weili and I looked like a couple of zombies. We tricked him saying Fu Shun's friend, Phyllis, has also joined the class and he can see her later. I say they always kiss in class. He was so excited and was waiting impatiently for Fu to come. In the end, when he saw that it was a male classmate, his face 'pek chek'. I still continue saying that is Phyllis, except she was a bit male-looking.

Came back and played FM the whole day. What a boring lifestyle. There is soccer tomorrow and lost of the players are coming. Let's hope it doesn't rain tomorrow.

Daily Man Utd news: Chelsea's secret summit with Arsenal ace Ashley Cole DID take place, The Sun can sensationally reveal today. We obtained concrete proof that Blues boss Jose Mourinho and chief executive Peter Kenyon tapped up the England defender at a plush hotel.

A hotel employee, who has given us a sworn affadavit, revealed: 'They were definitely talking about a transfer. I clearly remember the words, 'This is what we're prepared to do if you come to Chelsea.' If Arsenal lodge a formal complaint the Blues could be docked points.

STSC assignment 2 completed!

2005-02-03T23:38:00.000+08:00

My group finally completed STSC assignment 2. We are supposed to do a comic. So, it is as much imagination as possible. We originally wanted to do Spikeclub troopers. However, as there is no characters involved and no storyline, we had to abandon the idea. However, when I went to my grandma's house this saturday, my aunt gave me back my script that I used for the award winning story-telling competition. I forgotten about the script and was surprised to get it back.

I prepared to keep it for memory but since my group couldn't get an idea, I took this script out and developed it into a comic. As I am counted the writer, Weili had to draw it as he is the artist. However, I accompanied him all the way as he draw since I was the writer and has to confirm that he drew the right stuffs.

I went to his house at 6 and he only started drawing at 8. I was at his computer surfing the net and playing games while he was there drawing furiously. I just told him what to draw for the next 2 frames and I went playing. We finally finished at 10 and I went home then.

Daily Man Utd news: Uefa has announced clubs competing in the Champions League and Uefa Cup will have to include four homegrown players in their 25-man squad from 2006. Europe's governing body also wants to implement the plan in domestic leagues but that will have to be agreed by each national association.

Uefa then wants six homegrown players by 2007 and eight in 2008. Of the eight, at least four must be trained by the club's own academy and the rest from the home country. Uefa defines a club-trained player as one who has been registered for a minimum of three seasons with the club between the age of 15 and 21. Of the 32 sides in last season's Champions League, five clubs would have not had enough homegrown players. They are: Arsenal, Chelsea, Celtic, Rangers and Ajax.

Glory Glory Manchester United!

2005-02-02T21:28:00.000+08:00

Man Utd beat Arsenal 4-2 in today's battle of the managers. They agreed that whoever lost this game will have no chance of chasing the running away Chelsea. Although Silvestre was sent off at the 70th minute for assault, Man Utd held on and even scored a goal with only ten men. Let's not talk too much about this.

One of the reasons why I supported Man Utd is also showed today. ESPN showed a brawl at the tunnel before the start of the game regarding Arsenal captain Vieira and Man Utd captain Roy Keane.

Vieira is 1.92m tall and he was intimidating Gary Neville, a Man Utd defender not even 1.8m.

Roy Keane saw it and started a brawl with him. ESPN showed most part of the brawl.

Keane was saying: "Come on, pick on one of us." "Have a go at me." He said after the match that if he wants to intimidate our players and thinks that Gary Neville is an easy target, I'm not having it.'

There is just this team spirit and a great captain leading the team on. If you look at Chelsea, they are just a bunch of strangers who have individual talent. They don't even know if they will play again next season. They bought 2 strikers last season and now both of them are gone.

I am now going to think of the STSC idea tonight and we will have to draw tomorrow. However, tomorrow's lesson is until 5 and it looks as if there isn't much time left.I also hope Tim Teo had not come back yet.

AT THE END BEFORE I STOP, READ THE ARTICLE I CONTRIBUTED TO NEW PAPER!
http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/sports/story/0,4136,82242,00.html

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson insisted Manchester United have ended Arsenal's interest in the Premiership race. Fergie was beaming after watching his 10 men put in a superb second half comeback in this six-goal thriller.

Ferguson said: 'Both managers said before whoever lost was out of the title race. Having gone behind twice it shows the measure of our character tonight. We had the mental strength and on the night we were fantastic in terms of character and will to win and we played some fantastic football.'

United twice trailed in the first half after Ryan Giggs netted between strikes from Patrick Vieira and Dennis Bergkamp. But after the break Cristiano Ronaldo's double put United clear before Reds defender Mikael Silvestre was sent off for headbutting Freddie Ljungberg. United stood strong and substitute John O'Shea made sure with a cheeky chip over Manuel Almunia. United leapfrogged Arsenal into his second place and now trail Chelsea by eight points.

FM2005 is hooking me up!

2005-02-01T23:19:00.000+08:00

STSC is going to be due this friday and my group has not even thought of the idea yet. It is to be a group comic and we still must draw it. We all don't know how to draw. Looks like we are only going to do it this thursday.

I have been hooked on FM2005 this few days. It's been taking up my mind. Today's post is very short because I am preparing for the game at 4am. Arsenal vs Manchester United. I guess I will not get enough sleep.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United confirms the sale of Eric Djemba-Djemba to Aston Villa Football Club. The fee would be 1.35 million pounds. Future fees would be paid considering league appearances.

CD game

2005-01-31T22:30:00.000+08:00

Today is again a typically exciting and interesting day of school with Maths and OOPM on the timetable.

When it comes to CD, Dr Tan played the egg game. It is to protect the egg from impact using available materials. In the end, my group won because I brought them luck. Let me tell you why. After we finished the 'structure' to protect the egg, Sam, Roy and Seng Chong went to take their audio equipment. I then took the chance to write my name all over the structure, then write their names very small at a corner, cannot be seen at all. It must be me bringing luck to them.

After that, I went home with S3. This is the first or second time only we go home together. Fu Shun studies so far away at CLS block and it is so hard to go home with him. However, the whole trip to Outram, they just keep talking about Jamadil's foul words in malay to Fu Shun's friend, Fu Shun. Same name, but better than him. He understands 3 languages, malay,chinese and english.

However, when it got to Outram, they started talking about soccer then about Kee Wei's new 'xiang hao', a girl they say he likes. He also didn't object and just keep laughing. He is such a funny person, lol. You can see from his gestures and expressions what he really feel.

Tomorrow will be the DVID presentation of assignment 2. We are going to use my assignment 1 and expand it.

Today's blog seems boring. I add something funny in for you.

Roy was asking why I put my full name in my msn nick. I told him it is for DVID discussion.

Roy - discuss finish liao?
Me- Almost.
Roy - What about me? You never include me!!!!!!!!
Me - Who are you?
Roy - wah lao, neh neh....
Me - but my group is weili and YG leh. You are with Sam they all.
Roy - Oooo, sorry ah.

I think he under too much stress liao. He can't even remember his group.

Daily Man Utd news: Djemba Djemba is reported to be on a move to Aston Villa despite he says he wanted to stay at Man Utd to fight for his place. Since his 3.5 million pounds move from Nantes, he has never impressed Sir Alex. However, since he is only 23 years old, it make me so sad to see him move. He still has a lot to learn. I wish they would give him 1 more chance than to sell him after not even 2 seasons.

Didn't turn up for soccer

2005-01-30T23:39:00.000+08:00

Today they got soccer and I didn't turn up which is very rare. It is because there was FA cup matches last night. Amongst all the time, Man Utd match are shown the latest, at 1.30am. That will mean that I am going to sleep at 3.30. Soccer is at 9. It is impossible for me to just sleep 5 and a half hours and then go for a grueling soccer match. So, they went on themselves.

I just played Fm 2005 the whole day and wasted my time away. I tried to catch up with OOPM but I just couldn't understand. So bored, getting fed up with programming. I don't know if I chosen the right choice in WWWP. I sent Kee Wei my video and he said it was very good and he was so excited. However, I shown him all my assignments and he said very good everytime, although some sucked, like DAUD assignment 1. He seems to be getting into real trouble with his modules and I guess we will be helping him with it in the holidays. He must help me too, in OOPM.

I should have commented OOPM in Student Dialogue. In practical lessons, it was just a scene of disaster. Less than 10% of the class is catching up, don't talk about doing. Even though it is the longest module in terms of hours, the time seems to be wasted. Let me tell you the situation in my group whenever there is OOPM practicals.

YG- Weili, how you do question 1?
Weili- Like that, Like that.....
YG- Thanks.
Khian- Weili, my question 1 got problem.
Weili- Like that, Like that.

By then, Weili advanced to question 2.

Weili- Samuel, how you do question 2?
Samuel- Like that, Like that.

YG- Weili, how you do question 2?
The cycle goes on and on without stopping. Samuel is the only one catching up because he learnt it before. It was a piece of cake for him. The above cycle still has me and Fenghe to be added in. There is simply no meaning in this.

Daily Man Utd news: Wayne Rooney scored two stunning second-half goals to fire Manchester United into the FA Cup fifth round and leave Middlesbrough gasping in disbelief.
John O'Shea puts Manchester United one nil up. At 1-0 down Boro were still clinging on to an outside hope of a replay midway through the second period - until Rooney clinched the 3-0 win with a brilliant brace two goals which will be talked about for years to come.

Rooney said those 2 goals were two of the best he has ever scored.

Ann Soon is formatting again!

2005-01-29T23:39:00.000+08:00

Ann Soon is formatting his computer again, poor Weili is going to his house for another half day to help him format. He think it is very fun, every 1 month format 1 time. What a mad man. Today we had soccer and he came. It is because Weili threatened not to help him if he didn't come. It is just another normal but short session.

After the soccer, I remembered Ann's promise for treating us to a meal after we helped him with his motherboard problem. I also helped in threatening and he agreed to treat half a meal. Ate a super big meal, Ann even took a picture of it. I guess Weili is going today to format.

After I came home I just kept on playing FM2005. Weili has also joined in and we keep exchanging ideas. He went to take charge of Singapore for a try. That's so boring to face so lan players. I took charge of Man Utd of course and played about 4-5 seasons with them until now. Kee Wei is again asking us to help him with his modules. I told him we would help him at the holidays. The 'we' is because Weili will be the one teaching the bulk since he got director's role in that semester. However, he keeps saying he forgotten a lot. I think he got ' lao ren chi tai'.

Daily Man Utd news: Sir Alex Ferguson last night insisted his Manchester United players will not be intimidated by their trip to Highbury for the grudge showdown with arch-rivals Arsenal. United travel to Highbury on Tuesday for a potentially explosive clash between the two warring sides, but Fergie said his players will be able to handle the frenzied atmosphere. "We'll handle Highbury in the right way,""said Fergie. "I have no fears on that score. And I know the players will be queuing at my door to play. I've no doubt a great deal will be made about October's game at Old Trafford, but I've no thoughts other than positive ones directed towards winning."

DVID Completed!

2005-01-28T23:27:00.000+08:00

Hai.... after several days of hard work, I am so tired now. I finally finished my masterpiece! My DVID assignment 1. I achieved the effect I wanted through hard work from Ann Soon and Fu Shun who is willing to act according to my demands. Although they keep saying I am very demanding, there is still special thanks to them. Especially Ann Soon. Everyone who watched my video said the patient is so pitiful, torture until like that. In case you don't know, my story is about a patient who went to an uncertified doctor to save money and the doctor did treatments his own way. If you didn't see my video, it is an extreme loss to you.

This video is created in another module, Storyboarding, which I like because I just like to create storys. However, the most important thing is it must be FUNNY. If it is not, I would rather not create one. You can see it from my secondary school story telling competition story. The teacher, after listening to my story at the prelims, said I had gone into the finals. However, the story must be changed, or else the finals would not include me. I refused to change it, that lead to a special visit to the chinese HOD office to tell the story again to the HOD herself. In the end, she accepted my story and I won champion in the competition hands down.

Said I was tired but still wrote so much. Time for credit system again! Our beloved credit system is back!

WEILI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - minus credit because he got director's roll and I didn't.
ANN SOON!!!! - Thank him for the patient's role which is really a big sacriface. If not, the video would not be so successful.

Ann Soon - 2
Shu Hui - 1
Weili - 1/2 (hee hee....)
Kee - 0
Fu- 0( going to negative becauee he keep pestering about a Mac treat just because he helped us to film.)

2005-01-22T22:10:00.000+08:00

Wah, so mad. The saturday post was also typed today. Now, after 4 hours, I am here going to type another long post about our DVID assignments. However, for the sake of 19.26 million+ visitors of my blog, I am going to tell you even the slightest detail of our DVID assignment to let you feel you are in it.

We filmed mine first. Ann Soon was the worst victim of the video. He was laughing at Fu Shun who is the other main actor of my video at the start. Fu Shun had to dig his own legs and make stupid expressions. However, at the middle and end, Ann Soon had to be masked by masking tape that he said was very salty when he went to lick it. He ate the masking tape for dinner after we finish our video. He also had to be dunked into a bucket of water over 10 times as I told them that is the closing scene and I need the scene to be the background when I put the credits. Poor Ann Soon was then dunked over 20 times with NGs.

Weili's one started at 5 at the afternoon after I used 2 and a half in mine. His was done without much problem as he had a professional actor for his crew. That's me. I was taking his digital camera and taking photos of them throughout. 50% of Weili's blog pictures was taken by me when they were busy filming. I did some scenes that uglised myself for the sake of his video. That seriously tarnished my image. However, as a good friend that is always willing to help his friends, promote caring and sharing, I agreed to do it with no disagreements.

As for Ann Soon's video. I had to comment on something. He booked the court from 9-1. He called us to meet at Weili's house to film some indoor video at 8.15 am. I reached at 8.45am. I was already thinking of what to explain to him when I reach there as I was late for so long and his court time start at 9. I thought he would be so angry and start to scold me as he is always the earliest. Even when the day when Weili and I filmed, he was the earliest to reach.

However, when I got there, he just say ' Come in la, I have no ideas leh.'. My mouth was so wide open that I can swallow a airport control tower. However, I made up for that by helping him film with 100% enthusiasm again. I guess that's all. Type so long already.

Football mania!

2005-01-21T18:02:00.000+08:00

Today is Hari Raya! We got soccer as most of our players would be free. We met Zizou's gang again! We didn't even have to ask and they already started preparing to challenge us.

They put 2 luminous plastic marks for their goalpost and we put our bags. Their goalpost was very hard to see so to score is even harder.

Phee.....The first half started. Very fast, Wee Kiat scored 1 goal for us. The score was 1-0. The score does not display the dominance. We were attacking much but just couldn't get a goal. The culprit was me. I was getting a lot of balls through midfield and defence raining long balls. However, I couldn't really see the goalpost and when I saw it, I already wasted 2 seconds. Our team plays fast counter attack so I was wasting some time. I also keep slipping at their penalty area as the ground is too dry for my boots. I didn't score at all and the score became 2-1 very fast without any warning with them scoring two past us. I was already very embarrassed and losing confidence fast. I started to tell them not to pass any balls to me. I am just going to help defend. In the next part of the half, I was just like a ghost roaming the pitch and doing nothing.

Phee.....The second half started. We got our bags as their goalpost. However, we still couldn't score. They scored another goal with great ease. It was 3-1. Kee was as usual trying to scold everyone for the goal and was scolding Milo the goalie. Milo was very angry and scolded him back.

I see that we are going to lose because the mates was already into internal conflict. However, at this time, Weili was organising the defence and midfield , scolding them for faults and snatching for balls aggressively. He got 1 ball from Zizou and passed it into the clear to me. I used my pace to beat the defenders and scored. It was 3-2. We developed a hand signal to signal to Milo to kick the ball far into their penalty area to let me run as their defenders can't catch me with their inferior pace. I scored another with great ease. It was a draw now. 3-3.

They changed goalie and it made it hard for me. Their goalie stood very far out of the penalty area to stop clear balls and Milo's long kicks. He got all the balls. However, we quickly developed another tactic. I got a low ball from midfield and I immediately lobbed it over the goalie. He was standing too far out so he couldn't get to his goalpost fast enough. We were leading 4-3.

We changed side again and I didn't score anymore. However, With Joesph and my hat trick combined with Fu Shun's goal, we won the game 7-6. The game lasted about 2 and a half hour and we were all exhausted by the time we finish. I will elaborate Weili, Ann and my DVID assignment in my next post. Stay tuned.

Daily Man Utd news: Training with United's stars at Carrington can be a hazardous job, as Sir Alex Ferguson revealed in an interview with a Sunday newspaper last weekend.

"They batter balls all over the place and one of them will hit me one day and kill me. That Scholes sends them inches by my head. Then all they hear is me bellowing 'Scholes!' 'What?' he says, looking up like an angel."It's always the ones you least suspect that make the trouble.

Cant get a camera!

2005-01-18T22:34:00.000+08:00

Today got off to a bad start. I was late for DVID by 15 mins. Luckily Weili hung on to the attendance list regardless of his life and I marked myself present when I got there. However, it was just the start. My computer cant be switched on. The stupid technician don't know go where lazy, cannot find him. I have to change computer and copy all the files from sitfs540 again.

Then, Weili and I went to hand in our equipment form. However, all cams had been loaned out to class 01 and 02. We cant get a camera then to do our DVID assignment. When we got back to class, everyone also said they cant get one. It is due to stupid and senseless planning by the lecturers. When we asked them for a solution, they just said something extreme senseless ,' I told you all to borrow early right?'

I was thinking, if we borrow early. Yeh, we all got it. Then it is class 01 and 02 to complain about them can't getting a camera. They should have anticipated the holiday on friday and do something about it. That is just my thoughts.

However, Ann Soon agreed to lend us his camera on Friday to film while he use it on saturday. We were lucky to have such a friend helping us. I am thinking about the others. What can they do?

I guess I will take WWWP and VIDP for my electives. I just can't stand MMMI.

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd are facing Exeter again at Exeter's home in the FA cup replay after the 0-0 draw at Old Trafford. Man Utd are wheeling in their big stars to deal against Exeter after the embarassing draw. Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville are likely to return. Exeter will have to prepare themselves against the big boys of the Premiership. The mighty Manchester United.

CD class is fun today!

2005-01-17T22:22:00.000+08:00

Today is basically another normal day. Except I was physically and mentally tired after yesterday's grueling soccer matches and Tiger cup visit to National Stadium. Only 1 class interests me today. That is Character Development. Normally it is just a extra boring class with Dr Tan dawning on SP CORE values. Who cares anyway... haha... I am such a model student with great mental attributes. I could even be the lecturer.

We played the ' zhong ji mi ma'(Ultimate code). The '1-100', '20-75' etc game. I was thinking it could be quite boring as the class had 10+ people and it would take ages to come to my turn. In about 15 mins, I immediately regretted the thought. I was just the third person and the code started at 1-200. I GOT IT. Imagine! I was the third person in the 1-200 game and I got it. Dr Tan called me to buy Toto.

I was more concerned about my fate with my classmates looking at me with evil eyes and grinning. At first, they told me to dance after Shane did the same thing. That would take my life. I volunteered to sing. I sang,' lala lalala lalalalalala lalalalala' ( Happy Tree Friends theme). They didn't seem too pleased and didn't let me off easily. They wanted a real song. I was pondering at what to do,' Jump off the building or hold Dr Tan hostage' when SENG CHONG APPEARED.

He asked,' Perform a skit la. You drama one.'
I replied, ' Are you mad?'
He said, ' Good Skit!'

I was so shocked to hear him say that and I only took 5 seconds to understand what he was meaning. I thanked him much for that. However, when it was his turn for forfeit, I still initiated the class to bash him up with chairs after he told another sequel to the infamous big red ball story.

Ann Soon is someone that could be the first to be sacrifaced in the credit system for I was thinking whether to minus his credit. He put in his nick ' Whoever wants Premiere Pro...ask from mi'. When my friend wanted me to help him get a book, I asked him to borrow me and he refused. However, it is still a small blip in his credit for lending me his book. I am not minusing his credit and he owns me a meal for that.

Daily Man Utd news: Arsenal lost away to Bolton Wanderers 0-1 in last weekend's EPL meeting. *Champagne pops* They should have lost more as they are simple a team disliked by many. Lets pray that Henry join Cisse in his injury.

Tiger Cup Victory!

2005-01-16T23:35:00.000+08:00

Today got soccer in the morning. Played a while and Zizou's gang came. We then played with them. I scored a goal after just about 5 minutes. Their team had been trained before so it is not easy to score against them. I was therefore quite delighted. However, they replied us with 2 goals. The score was 2-1.

Another team then came and asked if they could play. We then decided to play knockout. we reset the score with Zizou's gang and the team that scores the first goal wins. Joesph was bringing the ball forward and I was lurking on the right. The defender went to tackle Joseph and fell down with him. The ball was rolling towards my direction. I then ran with full pace towards the goal and whizzed past the defender. I then scored into the right corner of the goal. We were all so ecstatic as it is not very easy to score . Zizou's team was then kicked out and we played with the other team.

Enough of those soccer stuffs. I went home then and slept to regain my energy. Went to Weili's house to meet and Fu, me Weili went to take a taxi to National stadium to watch Tiger Cup final! It was lucky we went there early so we got quite a seat of our preference. Singapore won easily as Indonesia rarely threatened the Singapore goal. Also, the amount of red-shirted fans there was absolutely amazing. We outnumber the Indonesia fans by 50000+. The Indonesia fans did not even total 1000. Got a fun time scolding the referee, normal scoldings would be 'Kayu', ' Biased'. However, we got our own scoldings.
Kee - Ku niang! ( Woman)
Me - Forget to bring red card ah! Don't let me catch you going home!
Weili would like to concentrate more on the match and he would shout the players name.
Very fun day but the transport there is still very bad as we took 1 hour to get home after waiting for space for us on buses.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United captain Roy Keane insists the club will never concede defeat in their quest to overhaul Chelsea.
The Red Devils trail the current Premiership table-toppers by 11 points and are desperately hoping for Chelsea to suffer a blip.

A 1-0 win at Liverpool on Saturday ensured United briefly closed the advantage on The Blues, who responded with a 2-0 success at Tottenham.
Despite the yawning gap between the two teams, United skipper Keane is in no mood to gift-wrap the Premiership title to the big-spending London club.
"We will keep fighting to the end," Keane told MUTV. "We are Manchester United, that is what we do. "

Camp!

2005-01-15T23:21:00.000+08:00

Wow... the ever helpful S4 went to another camp of Peicai to help out. No wonder we are voted in the HANDSOME magazine for most helpful councillors of 2005. It was quite some fun la, although there is nothing to do.

We played street soccer when we got there. Weili is the most excited of all. However, he still haven't adapt to the street soccer so his ball all flew high. I scored 2 goals. Got 1 goal so embarrassing, I got the ball and was in the clear on the left. I then used my full strength to smash the ball and it hit the keeper before going in. A bit higher then no father day for the keeper. Towards the end, Ann Soon was injured as the ball hit his face. His glasses have no nose padding and it scratched his face. I went around telling everyone he fought with the defender after losing.

When we got there, we just crap around then eat dinner. Still must answer maths question correctly then can eat. I then use my intelligence to help the retard Ann Soon get his dinner because he cannot answer them without my help.

After we ate, it is again crapping around. Ann Soon and I went out of school to escort Ling Fang out and Ann Soon wanted to go Central. It was so far and I thought he was kidding. He was serious. Weili was lazy and didn't wanted to go. In the end, we went to nearby to buy each of us an ice cream. ( Ann! The ice cream money!) ( Still own Weili money for coffee also)

We went back then and helped Maria do her website. Crap around until 2am and Kee, Weili and I went around scouting for places to sleep. Slept at the fitness sit-up wooden 'bed'. It was a bit uncomfortable but I managed to sleep. I woke up around 4am and found the 2 missing. It was very cold and I cant sleep. Found them in the hall and joined them.

Woke up again at 5.30 when the whole hall's students woke up. Went to barbeque table at the foyer to sleep. After 45 mins, an ah gua secondary one came and woke us up. Anyway, it is a good thing. We walked to the councillor room and slept on safari beds. After so long, we managed to get lodging.

Woke up at 10.30 when Ann Soon's sister called to tell me she's coming. Ann Soon's handphone is spoilt and used mine as his communication tool. Everyone in the councillor room woke up after the call. Perhaps I talked too loudly. After breakfast, we went to play street soccer again. I scored a couple of goals and can't stand the weather. It was 12+. Got a bit sunburn and stopped.

We went home then after resting for a while.

It is time again for our beloved credit system. Whenever it appears, someone is sure to get a credit. WHO IS IT TODAY??

The credit goes to .................................................................................................. Weili!

After OOPM on friday, I was going to photocopy my stsc when the photocopy room was bursting with people. He then helped and suggested me and YG to go to 2033 to scan our papers out and print them there. I even used his cashcard as my cashcard is out of money. He also helped me print the template for me to draw.

Credits
Weili - 1
Ann Soon - 1
Shu Hui - 1
Kee - 0 (To answer his question on my tagboard, accumulate -1 credit you have to treat me to 10 Mac meals.)
Fu - 0

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd won away at Liverpool 1-0 today. A Dudek howler let in Rooney's shot to squirm under his arm. At around 65-70 min, Man Utd defender Wes Brown was sent off for two yellow cards. However, Man Utd held on with 10 men to grind out a victory.

My story

2005-01-11T23:12:00.000+08:00

Hai... after hearing Ann Soon's disastrous story for two days, it is time to listen to something different. What about listening to my story? This is my blog and I should tell my own story, instead of Ann Soon's.

I was a bit different from Ann Soon who was always punished because he was such a bad boy. I was a model student in classes and looked neat and handsome. Unlike someone who looked like a big charcoal walking everywhere and got masked ( ok...I knew he gonna say I looked like a big polar bear, help him say here).

Actually I also got the results from careful planning and flawless execution. I give one incident that happened during secondary 2.

Today got CME, Civil and Morals Education. I forgot to bring the book. However, I borrowed it from someone from other class. But, I was thinking,' What if the teacher want us to write and do exercises in the book, I can't write in it because it is not mine.'

Then, I did something that none of you would have thought of. During the lesson, I ownself go up to the teacher and said I forgotten to bring the book. But, I borrowed the book from 1 of my friends.

The teacher said,' Very good. I want all of you to learn from Gary. Even though he didn't bring the book and borrowed from someone else, he didn't try to cheat me and use that book for the lesson. For his honesty, I will not punish him.' Those who didn't bring the book or was trying to cheat their way through were all punished. I was not. Haha....

Ah ya... I was planning to add a way to not get punished by teachers in class when you are talking. But today's post seems a bit long, so tomorrow it shall be.Ok?

Credits: Wah, here must thank Fatty Ann for lending me the book for DVID today, otherwise I will be in hot water. So heavy, and he still bring. *Shu Hui also, help me take from him and return him also. Also, he agreed to get his mouth masked again for my DVID project. And he agreed it at once, without my persuation. wow, such a good friend, so must add credit.
So, Ann Soon - credit 1
Shu Hui - credit 1
Weili - credit 0
Kee - credit 0
Fu - credit 0
Accumulate 10000 credits can exchange a country eraser.
( Hope he don't get angry over the black charcoal thing after writing so many good things about him.....)

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United or Exeter City will face Middlesbrough in the FA Cup Fourth round.The tie will take place at either Old Trafford or St. James' Park over the weekend of 29 and 30 January.United have played Boro eleven times in the FA Cup, with the most recent meeting at The Riverside in January 2002 when Boro ran out 2-0 winners thanks to late goals from Noel Whelan and Andy Campbell.
Before that United defeated Boro by three goals to one in March 1999 at Old Trafford on their way to securing their historic Treble.
The Reds travel to Exeter's St. James' Park stadium a week on Wednesday to replay their third round tie after a disappointing 0-0 draw at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Koek Cheng's nerves was damaged

2005-01-10T20:40:00.000+08:00

I mentioned in my previous post that Koek Cheng's hand was injured by my volley. He kept telling me on MSN that his hand was very painful etc. He went to see a doctor today and the result is damaged nerves. It is nothing serious except just painful, said Koek Cheng. This type of injury is very common in soccer, normally it is nothing serious. However, I can't believe that I kicked someone's nerves damaged. What is the power of the volley then?

Found out recently that I am getting Weili's bad habit and starting to get late. Everytime more late than Weili himself. Very bad...Very bad... It must be him. He kept grumbling everyday that I am late and should give him coconuts. Mad man...

Ann Soon was targeted by Timothy Teo today during his audio lecture. Timothy Teo got everyone to tick their name in the register for attendance and found out who is the notorious Ann Soon who sent him an email. He told him,' So you are Ann Soon. You ask me the question properly now and I will answer it to the class.' Hai... so suay.... The other details all of you should ask him.

Today basically did nothing exciting. Just went to buy the premium pro 1.5 book but the bookstore say out of stock. They say must wait for the import from America. I was trying to get the book but to no avail. When I met Weili at the MRT, he said he already borrowed it from Ann Soon, leaving me with no way out. I was thinking to borrow from Kee when Ann Soon call me.

Ann Soon- ' hey, why weili sms me?'
Me- ' Siao gao, he sms you you call him back la.'
Ann Soon- ' he never pick up.'
Me-' Did he borrow the book from you?'
Ann Soon-' No, he only ask me go home already a not'
Me- ' OOoooooo, can you lend me then?'
Ann Soon-' Ok.'

Then I called to tell Weili and he said I stole his book away from Ann Soon. I then helped him call Kee and Ann Soon to get from his friends but in the end, he said he got it from Shu Hui. Asshole, make me so busy for nothing.

Daily Man Utd news: Cristiano Ronaldo has denied that his showboating style has made him an Old Trafford outcast. Ronaldo said: "I have never had any problem with any of my team-mates, and I want people to understand that. Nothing happened at Fulham. I admit I was angry at the end because we allowed them to level the game when we had been in control, but so was every player because we lost two points. I have good relations with everybody at the club. That is the truth. My English is improving quickly because I have a teacher and maybe when I can speak the language well it will be better for me. But there are no problems for me in Manchester."

Timothy Teo is starting to get mad!

2005-01-09T23:24:00.000+08:00

Ann Soon was just now grumbling to me about timothy teo was mad. Ann Soon wanted to know if he could combine the class's audio assignments into 1 CD instead of 2, girls 1 and boys 1 assigned by timothy teo. He then hand itchy go be curious. Ask why must separate boys and girls. Timothy teo scold him sarcastic. Perhaps he knew Ann Soon was on good terms with the girls and wanted to join everything they are in. Who knows? Bad luck for him then, he doesn't seem to get into teacher's good books everytime. I am going to tell everything out in this post since I have nothing to post for today.

Sec 1- Mr Koo, D&T teacher. He was warning the class not to talk or he will mask the student with masking tape. I continued to talk with Ann Soon. Mr Koo saw it and called Ann Soon out and masked him and not me. He masked him very horribly. It is not the normal just cover the mouth. He kept taping round and round the mouth until he looked like a mummy. Till today, he still blames me for that incident.

Sec 3- Mr Nath, PE teacher. We were learning shot-put, the one that requires you to throw the big metal ball as far as possible. Mr Nath then set requirement line. He wanted us to throw beyond the requirement line. One line for girls, which is easier, and one for boys, which is further and harder. It was Ann Soon's turn. I think he got the wrong technique and threw it very badly. It didn't even cross the girl's line. Mr Nath was scolding him when he asked' Can I try again?'. I guessed Mr Nath heard wrongly and he scolded him,' What attitude is this? Go over there and stand. He was then punished to stand.

Sec 4- Miss Yap, Chemistry teacher. We both were talking behind the class despite Miss Yap being a very fierce teacher. Bad luck got us, she got us. She said so loudly,' Those 2 buffalos behind, stand up. She was meaning us. She asked why were we talking. Ann Soon the fat ass, said' He was talking to me', try to get me into hot water. Miss Yap then said,' So, you were talking to him also la.' Then, he got scolded. I think I got away scot-free.

I can't remember much and this 3 are those I can remember. If I remember more, I will post them.

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd second string were held to a astonishing 0-0 draw at Old Trafford. Although Man Utd fielded second string and youth players, most predicted them to crush the non-league side Exeter. Now, they must travel to Exeter's home for the replay. Alex Ferguson said sorry to the fans and said this was the worst performance in the FA cup in 10 years. He promised to field stronger players in the replay.

Back!

2005-01-08T22:13:00.000+08:00

I am back!! Everybody! The uncle wearing the white singlet sitting at the corner, do you hear me? Although most of you will surely think, ' He will be gone again for 1 month after blogging for a week'. I don't think so..... that's the wrong opinion of me....ok..I think so.

After wasting 5 secs of your life reading the first paragraph, let's start with my recent life. It is still the same old boring lifestyle. That's why there isn't much things to blog. I guess I have to talk about my lessons if this goes on. Let's not care about what happens during the blog's absence, let's start with today.

There is soccer today at 8.30am and Weili said there is Zizou's gang and Wyman's gang coming. In the end, none came. There was only 7 of us. We have to play 3vs3.

Was in top form today and scored more than 10 goals in 3 matches. In the middle, a indian said he wanna join and we let him join milo's team that was struggling with Stanley's madness. He was my lucky star and I scored 4-5 goals alone. He went after a while and we regrouped. Stanley and Weili was in opposition now. We have to deal with Stanley who doesn't seem to be tired at all.

Very fast, they kept attacking. Weili was goalkeeper so Stanley was the only 1 who was threatening the our goal. However, we organised ourselves and 3 of us tackled him together. He still doesn't seem to get a way through after 10 mins. That's when we scored 1 goal through Wee Kiat with our first attack. They got koek cheng to be the keeper and Weili joined in the attack. With Weili in, we got 2 speedy strikers threatening our goal, while I, Wee kiat and Fu Shun were lazy defenders who don't run much except when we were attacking. They got the weak point and immediately peg us back with 3 goals. We were 3-1 down in an instant.

However, with Weili out, koek cheng wasn't a very good keeper and he didn't block much of the goal. I got that and told them to just shoot whenever we got the chance. Through that, I got a hat trick. I forgot the score but an unfortunane thing happened. I got the ball bouncing and could say was in the clear. However, wanting my goals to be emphatic, I volleyed the ball instaed of just running and slotting it past Koek cheng. Koek cheng blocked the shot and it was his first shot. However, as it is a volley, it was my body's full strength. He sprained his hand AGAIN. I said again because I also sprained his hand like 1 year ago when he was also the keeper.

He was injured then and we stopped very soon. I went home and ate lunch. I then played Fm2005 for some time before sleeping to make up for the lost sleeptime when I woke up at 8. Went to my grandma's house and then my cousin's house. Watched the FA cup and Tiger cup. Both was a bit boring but scoreline was unbelievable. See the tiger cup scoreline at Weili's blog. He's sure to publish the scoreline.

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd meet non-league outfits Exeter in today's FA cup third round at Old Trafford. Although Alex Ferguson is sure to field a second team side, it is sure that the non league outfirs would not be able to deal with the class of Man Utd's second string side consisting of Phil Neville, O'Shea, Bellion and Tim Howard. However, with giant-killing the best part of FA cup, no big teams can underestimate the small teams. The first giant killer went to Coca Cola division side Sheffield United who beat Aston Villa 3-1 three hours ago.

KTV trip with parents

2004-12-08T20:22:00.000+08:00

Yesterday my mum keep asking me and my dad where we wanna go to as it is her off day today. I see that she is very enthu about singing and suggested karaoke. Not K-box as the time is a bit early if we go for K-lunch.

Went there a bit late and was quite worried if they will cancel my reservation. However, they must be glad that I never cancel my reservation instead of topsy-turvy as there is no people at all! They got 20 plus rooms and only 3 are occupied. It is my first time hearing my dad sing and only a small portion of songs he and my mum sang interests me. I also got my fair share of songs. We took our turns to go down and eat lunch as the time is quite long. We booked a package deal of 2pm-7pm.

Had fun and seemed that my parents enjoyed themselves too. Went to buy dinner and went home. SCV is not showing Man Utd matches live again but they made ground by telecasting a delayed telecast.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson has ordered Cristiano Ronaldo to cut out the play-acting. Opponents have grown frustrated with the Portuguese star, claiming he dives. And Manchester United boss Fergie yesterday admitted that Ronaldo's antics were also having a detrimental effect on his own team. He said: "The part of Cristiano's game I really wanted to add to was not over-playing things when he is fouled. He has more than enough courage not to do that. He has improved a lot in that department now and that comes from being around these players and learning the way we are."

Hair got white

2004-12-07T23:30:00.000+08:00

After several days of boredom, I managed to get myself hooked to RTW again. I also got over the anger of FM2005 not being able to install and play. I installed it over 20 times and it still wouldn't work. I was downloading things at kazaa when a miracle happened.

FM 2005 completed its installation! However, it proved to be a trap to make me die. I stepped into it.

I opened the game and found out the game is in netherlands language. I didn't know at all that netherlands had its own language. So, I tried to find the options and changed it to English. After several attempts, I finally found the options! I was very happy and found the option which seemed to be language. I changed it to English.

I was very happy but it proved the ultimate trap. AND I MEAN UNTIMATE TRAP! Where is the 'confirm' button!!! I tried most buttons but they just went somewhere weird. I searched the net with anguish for 1 hour and all I could find was change the language in the options.

I was very down and remembered something I saw at a FAQ when I was searching for the installation problem. Its says something about changing the database. I went to the database editor at once. Luckily, the editor is in English and it only teaches you how to change the game's data, nothing about language.

HOWEVER, the clever and intelligent and wise me found a way through. Ad there are screens provided at the editors, I looked for the 'confirm button' location. It was somewhere at the bottom left and the color hidden it. I went back and learned a new word. 'Beverin' in English is 'confirm'.
After about 1 and a half hour, I solved the problem. The lesson learned is don't buy from neighbourhood shops. Don't buy pirated.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United beat Southampton 3-0 in last saturday's EPL match. However, players are still not satisfied. Gary Neville stated, ' We have to be more ruthless in our scoreline. Like 4-0, 5-0,6-0. '
In the match against Southampton, Cristiano Ronaldo missed a sitter from 10 yards. Gary Neville deliberately ran 50 yards during the match to him and gave him a talking-to. In the lasting minutes, Ronaldo scored from a Gary Neville assist.

Finally a new game away from RTW

2004-12-04T19:40:00.000+08:00

Weili said today afternoon that my blog has some problems but it look ok when I looked at it. He even took screenshot to show me the problem. I went to the template but still couldn't find the problem. He got Shu Hui to see and he said Shu Hui also saw the problems. I got Ann Soon to see but Ann Soon sees the same with me. So, the ultimate result is, my blog is specially designed for 3.0ghz computers with HT technology.

I felt so bored the whole day as I grew tired of RTW. I tried Starcraft but it doesn't interest me. I tried Worms but it couldn't run. I still don't know the reason. So, I went to the neighbourhood shop to buy football manager 2005 but heaven does not help. There is a problem in the installation. I am still feeling bored now with no games to play.

I am watching the 41th golden horse awards which is held in Taiwan and found it so boring. All the superstars didn't come except for a few like Andy Lau. I guess he is the only superstar. The taiwanese films sucks too.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson is targeting Middlesbrough winger Stewart Downing as the long-term replacement for Ryan Giggs. Manchester United boss Fergie sees Downing, one of the few left-sided Englishmen in the top flight, as having a great future. SunSport yesterday revealed Giggs has become unsettled at Old Trafford and that the Welsh wideman, 31, is a 4 million pounds target for Newcastle.

Sir Alex Ferguson last night claimed he has the five most exciting players in the Premiership and that the best is yet to come from his latest United dynasty. Fergie insisted his fab five of Wayne Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ryan Giggs, Cristiano Ronaldo and Alan Smith can prove the inspiration to land a ninth Premiership title this season. "Those five are as good as anything in the Premiership," said Fergie. "They can all provide us with great combinations and give us many different options."

Karaoke problem

2004-12-03T12:57:00.000+08:00

Yesterday went to K Box with my cousins but didn't update my blog because Weili called me to play GB quite late and there is no time to update when I finished.

Today went for soccer first thing in the morning. I was quite reluctant to go actually as I was very tired and there isn't much people. However, soccer never disappoints. Even if the game isn't very fun, jokes were very fun. Also, I found out school starts on Dec 13 instead of 6th. I was already planning to go to school on monday. Today's soccer is quite funny too. The first match with Kee in the opposition team, the score was 14-3 and the match was cancelled due to the sure victory. I scored like 10-11 goals in that match. Madness.

Went for lunch with Weili and Kee Wei then and they wanted to go karaoke. However, Weili couldn't make it the whole next week as he is going to chalet. The price is quite high on weekends.

We encountered several problems while booking too. First, Fu Shun does not want to pay much. Looks like $5 is the maximum he would pay. Even on the cheapest K box rates wouldn't get him that kind of price. I heard my mum said the CC here also have karaoke. I went down specially to find out the price but it is more expensive. We originally decided on a Bishan place which I recommended but the price they are giving is a bit weird. We originally thought I and Kee could pay more since this time range is our birthdays and we could pay more. However, it doesn't solve the problem at all.

That's when the ultimate problem came. Ann Soon is the criminal. I asked him to call the Bishan place to find out something very important. Everyone then waited for his reply in MSN. 5 min...10min....15min.... till everyone went away and he did not reply at all. Everyone thought he is asking. Then, Weili called me and told me he is watching VCDs. He didn't even reply us.

I asked my mum to do a favour and asked and found out the price isn't very good and their operating systems have some problems. So, I went to sleep knowing it is impossible to have a session.

Jamadil messaged me on 11.30 and said why we didn't ask him to soccer. I was a bit shocked and asked for his contact number so we could call him. I was not sure if he's serious. If he is, there's a new addition to my footie lads. We could do with more people.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United beat Arsenal again in the lastest Carling Cup victory. Although both clubs don't give a damn about this cup, Manchester United's reserves obviously have more depth than Arsenal's. Manchester United team sheet have 8 full internationals while Arsenal have none. David Bellion scored on 18 seconds due to Arsenal keeper Almunia's mistake to win the match 1-0.

Room clean-up!

2004-12-01T12:40:00.000+08:00

Yesterday overlooked a major detail in my post. I cleared my room of rubbish after constant reminders from my mum. So, on afternoon, I opened all my cabinets and cleared away all my rubbish, secondary 1-4 textbooks, children storybooks, tons of worksheets and art materials I used when I was young.

In the end, the result was 1 big box measuring up to the waist and 5 big plastic bags of rubbish. It is now still in my living room as my mum haven't gone through it and I think she doesn't plan to as the amount is simply tremendous.

Today isn't as exciting as yesterday. It's the same old things all over again. However, Kee nowadays like to ask my about his blog's problem instead of asking Weili. Like the calender in his blog, he told me he wanted to get rid of it and Weili said there is a lot of tags all over his template. So, he still came and looked for me. How would I know where the tags are?

Today played GB with S4 and Fu's friend. Watched Singapore Idol and found out it like to drag its program. Just get those 2 to sing their songs and announce the winner. They got the previous participants to perform endless performance and dragged the program to double the time. I think they just wanted more advertising time thus more money.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson has wound up Arsene Wenger by claiming out-of-form Arsenal no longer worry him. Manchester United's boss insists Chelsea are his new big problem. Fergie, speaking on the eve of Battle of the Buffet II, said: "I think everyone is concerned about Chelsea now. They are five points clear of Arsenal in the Premiership and nine points clear of ourselves. It is going to take a mammoth task to catch them."

GEMS registration

2004-11-30T23:42:00.000+08:00

Today is the day for GEMs ( General Elective Module ) registration day. S4's appointment is at 3pm. Fu Shun's is at 9am and he went to school to do the registration.

The time was soon 2.30pm and I started to prepare. At 2.55, the website suddenly updated the appointment time to 3.30. We had to wait another 30 minutes then. At 3.25, Weili suddenly messaged and said we will be logged out after 20 minutes after signing in. So, we have to re-sign in.

Just at that moment, the registration starts. As it is a first-come-first-serve system, we 3 all can't get the DIY PC module we want. I immediately messaged them to choose Securing PC, our second choice. I got in, however, the unexpected happened. Fastest finger Weili couldn't get in. Ann Soon also messaged to say he can't get into DIY PC and Securing PC. Although it is just a minute gone, most of the courses had been snapped up. They then took their own time to coordinate the course that they want and they chose 'Creating your own dvd'. I got 'Securing your PC'.

I was of course very angry over not been able to get to the same course and I was cursing the system. Although I got 1 of the popular courses, I was not at all very pleased. I went to play CZ a while to quench my anger that was brewing.

However, Fu Shun messaged me later and said he got into Securing PC too and the time is same. The class is still not known. It managed to soothe my anger by half knowing that I am in the same course as Fu Shun.

Kee Wei got into 'Sun Zi's art of war in the modern world'. He said he had to go somewhere further than the life science block. Poor thing.

The remaining day is as normal. I will be going to K-Box this thursday with my cousins after they heard my wonderful voice. Lol...

Daily Man Utd news: Freddy Shepherd claims Manchester United lost their "stardust" when David Beckham was sold to Real Madrid last year. And the Newcastle chairman insists they have been rudderless since Martin Edwards quit Old Trafford. Shepherd said: "Over the last two years, Manchester United have lost a bit of stardust. They lost the captain of the ship in Martin Edwards and they suffered from that. And they suffered from losing Beckham as well — they lost two characters there. They miss Martin Edwards hugely because it is like a ship without a sail at the moment."

Ann Soon's new computer

2004-11-29T23:36:00.000+08:00

Today is accompanying Ann Soon to Sim Lim Square to buy his new computer. Woke up at 1.30 and watched my show. At 12.15, when I was about to bathe and prepare, he came suddenly to my house without any notice. I can only change my clothes and go with him to MRT to wait for the rest.

After waiting there with Fu Shun for 15 minutes, Weili messaged and said the burning can't be finished and wanted us to go his house first. So, we played PS2 there till 3 before we set off.

After we got there, the computer is bought faster than mine as there is no need for new comparisations of prices with the up-to-date copy Weili got. There is also no crowd so Ann Soon got the computer in about 1 hr. ( It is considered fast....)

Went to his house then and helped him fix his computer up and watched some vcds of student council. At 7, I left with Fu as it was running late. Weili stayed behind as he still had a lot of installation to do. Till publish, he is not home yet.

Went to the bus stop then but Fu said it is not his bus stop. He went north and after 10 mins, he came back. He said it was wrong too and went south. I don't know if he did find the bus stop then.

Daily Man Utd news: John O'Shea has insisted he is going nowhere despite speculation linking him with a move away from Manchester United.
The stylish Irishman has seen his first-team opportunities drastically reduced following the arrival of Gabriel Heinze and has not started a Premiership game since the 1-1 home draw with Middlesbrough at the beginning of October.
At one stage, the 23-year-old was shunted into central midfield as Sir Alex Ferguson looked for a solution to his early-season injury crisis, but that experiment appears to have been abandoned.
O'Shea was an unused substitute for Saturday's 3-0 win at West Brom but he is expected to turn out in central defence on Wednesday as United look to book a Carling Cup semi-final spot at the expense of Arsenal.

Fucked up

2004-11-27T23:24:00.000+08:00

I am sorry that this post has to be 1 day late. The reason is I was very fucked up yesterday night. It is not worth mentioning, no one will understand my feelings.

Today is my mum's birthday. The first thing I woke up she said jokingly,' Why is there nothing from you? Today is my birthday leh. Even your cousin gave her mother a present she made herself.' (My mum and my auntie are twins) I thought of what I have been doing these few days despite knowing my mum's birthday is around the corner, RTW, RTW and RTW. Hai....unfilial.

Went for badminton then with qiujin, kim and S3. Fu didn't come because he has to go SIR building to collect documents. Weird reason though. Today's game was a bit boring. Like the team Annsoon and Weili lost 15-0 and Qiu Jin who is at the opposition said she had not even hit 5 times.

Went for lunch with Annsoon and Kee then and talked about Prom Night and our secondary school teachers.

Went home then and my mum said she booked a karaoke room till 7pm and said I can go later if I want. After some rest and RTW, went to Bishan where the place is. Hear my mum's singing and think she need some practice.

Went to my grandma's house then and celebrated their birthday. Went to watch EPL at my cousin's house then. The fucked up part came. SCV is not showing the Man Utd match today! They chose to show a stupid bolton match. Although I know there is a new channel specially showing Man Utd matches, I didn't know if they are showing this match. The internet program guide sucks. In the end, I didn't get to watch that match.

Daily Man Utd news: Paul Scholes grabbed two goals as United won 3-0 against West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns this afternoon to continue their ascent up the Premiership table. Ruud van Nistelrooy scored the other goal as United chalked up their third consecutive Premiership victory. It was also their fifth successive win in all competitions.

John O'Shea fears he will be sold by Manchester United in the January transfer window. The Irish international, 23, has told close friends the writing was on the wall once boss Alex Ferguson brought in Argentine international left-back Gabriel Heinze in the summer.

Steamboat day again

2004-11-26T23:50:00.000+08:00

Today woke up at 10.30 again to catch the same show. Then it's breakfast and RTW again. Then Weili told me to help him find some songs and I found them through kazaa. We both then spent some time playing Earth.Soon, it's lunchtime. It's steamboat again....( refer to previous posts). Could be due to eating too much times, it tasted quite tasteless today.

After eating, I went to sleep and woke up at 10.30. The lunch finished at 6 though. So I didn't sleep very long as you think. Came here to update my blog then. Didn't have dinner and feeling weird at my stomach now....

having badminton tomorrow

Daily Man Utd news: Roy Carrol insists he will not allow his Champions League blunder to affect his condidence as he battles with Tim Howard to be Manchester United's first-choice goalkeeper. Carroll's reputation for consistency took a knock following his mistake on Tuesday when he helped Mahamadou Diarra's speculative 30-yard shot into the net. Carroll said: "It was an error but I just had to forget about it and get on with the game. It came straight at me and I tried to get down on it, but I know I should have done better. Goalkeepers make mistakes but you can't be worrying about your place in the team at a time like that when there are 50 minutes to go."

Post not updated

2004-11-25T20:23:00.000+08:00

Yes...yes... I know I didn't update my blog for yesterday and didn't even make an effort to reupdate it today. My mum yesterday nagged me to sleep before I even had a chance to open blogger. Also, I figured you all won't be interested to see something 1 day late. So, let's live with today

Today is again a boring day. I guess everyday posts are about 99% same except the daily Man Utd news. Although the structure for today's happening is almost the same as the timetable I shown in previous post, I still have to explain.

Woke up by 10.30 and caught a show of last night. My cousin then called and asked me about a restaurant's telephone number and I didn't have it. I went on the net for about 15 minutes but still couldn't find the number. Went to buy breakfast-cum-lunch then.

Played RTW till my dad came home. I was feeling hungry and he said he had some leftover fried noodles that he was selling this morning. I asked him to put some chili in and he did put. Except that the amount need revising. The noodles was like those spicy noodles they eat during competition. Nonetheless, it tasted good.

Watched some comics online and played CZ a while. Then dinner and television came in....Boring lifestyle...

Daily Man Utd news: Man Utd beat Lyon 2-1 to go top of the group of Champions League. It was the perfect celebration of Ferguson's 1000th game in charge. Lyon is currently unbeaten in the French League. There is still 1 game left in the group so Man Utd must win it to confirm their position. However, as English teams can't draw themselves in the knockout phrase, they may meet Real Madrid, Valencia or Bayern Munich if they finish top.

Boring Holiday

2004-11-23T23:51:00.000+08:00

This 1 month holiday is starting to get boring. The things done is almost same everyday.
From wake up till 1- Watch television and eat
1-7- play computer games and watch television
7- sleep - watch television and play computer.
This is getting so boring....

Basically, I explained my whole day above. This routine can be seen in 90% of my holiday posts. Tomorrow Ann Soon planned a trip to AMK and play pool. Go till AMK and play pool for 1-2 hours? Weird planning.... the most weird is he asked Shu Hui and asked Fu Shun and Kee Wei who aren't very familiar with her. Won't it make her and they 2 feel weird? Never mind, it is good to know another friend anyway.

Fu Shun isn't going as said by Weili. He said he had no money.... how much would pool cost man.....I remembered we had a chalet and he didn't stay because he can't sleep on a foreign bed as said by him... maybe 99% due to the cost needed to be paid. However, this reason is again used when we were planning to stay over at Weili's house when his family went overseas. In the end, the 1 week stay became only 1 day because all of them gave weird reasons.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson wants to swap Phil Neville for 2million pounds Everton ace Thomas Gravesen. Fergie, who tonight celebrates his 1,000th game as Manchester United boss against Lyon, is desperate to add more steel to his midfield. Contact has been made between United and Everton to register Ferguson’s interest in the Danish midfielder, 28, who has refused to sign a new deal at Goodison Park.

Early waking up

2004-11-22T21:32:00.000+08:00

Woke up at 5 today and couldn't get back to sleep. So, I watched television till 6. Remembered my handphone and went to take a look. I was shocked to see 9 missed calls, all by Weili. He was trying to tell me that there was soccer today at 8.30. He needed to inform me because I told him don't want soccer last night because everyone was tired.

Went to play CZ and got hungry at 7.15. Went to change my shirt and my mum woke up. She went with me to breakfast and I went directly to soccer. The first game was a total disaster. My team had someone we don't know and we can't cooperate with him. Lost 7-2 I think. that's the highest scoreline I lost I think. The second game was a turnaround. Teamed with a goalkeeper milo and a cheetah stanley. The score was 0-1, 1-1, 1-2, 2-2, 2-3, 3-3. I scored all three to keep us in the game. In the end, Weili and I scored another 2 goals to win it.

Got home and was still full. Played RTW a while and got hungry. Heard my mum said she had some chops marinated and I could eat if I want. So, I got all food eatable from the fridge, eggs, crabmeat, chops, hotdogs, veggies, horfun, instant noodles. I fried some and boiled some. Took about half an hour to finish off the cooking.

Ate and continued with my RTW... what a boring day. Then it's dinnertime and ate again. Was going to sleep but came here to blog first.

If you are very very observant, you should have noticed that my blog background is back to normal. It is due to 99% of my intelligence, observance, experience, alertness and 1% to Weili for finding that extra 'div' tag that caused the problem.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson has hailed Ruud van Nistelrooy as the best striker he has worked with at Manchester United. Boss Fergie clocks up 1,000 games in charge against Lyon tomorrow. And he said: "Ruud has been the best finisher we have ever had at this club. We have had some brilliant centre-forwards at United like Eric Cantona. But Ruud has been the best for me."

Early Sleep

2004-11-21T23:37:00.000+08:00

This post is written at 5am in the morning as I slept too early last night. Responsible right?

Today slept till 11 and watched Football Extra to see how Chelsea and Arsenal drawn with teams they shouldn't have drawn, especially Arsenal. Then played computer games till about 3 when Weili called and said Ann Soon is going to his house and asked me if I want to go. I agreed and reached his house by 3.30.

Got there and Ann Soon was playing RAW vs Smackdown already. We played a while and Ann Soon said he want to use Weili's laptop to surf the net. Weili and I continued with our game and left him alone. Don't know what's so important that he has to come here to surf internet.

Played a while more and Ann Soon went home at 6. I went home too at 7. Due to a heavy dinner, I dropped into sleep at 8.30.

Daily Man Utd news: United clawed back two crucial points on Chelsea and Arsenal as the Premiership's top two both surrendered leads at home against Bolton and West Brom respectively. Chelsea 2-2 with Bolton, Arsenal 1-1 with West Brom.

Mandarian Hotel Chicken Rice

2004-11-20T23:23:00.000+08:00

Overseas superstars always go to Mandarian Hotel of Singapore to eat their chicken rice. Heard that it is $18 a plate. Never tried it before but it is realised today.

Went with my grandparents and father to my aunt's company don't know what talk or what at Mandarian hotel. They provide a free meal of chicken rice so we went as we wanted to try it. Got there and found out we have to earn the chicken rice. The work is 2 hours of speech. My grandparents and us went to take a walk and my aunt will call us when it is time for chciken rice. Hahaha. Went to the top floor and watched the scenery. Before long, it is chicken rice time!!

Turned out sucking.... Their supposed $18 chicken rice is just a plate of 3/4 bowl of rice and a pile of tough chciken breast meat. Guess it is not their normal standard as there is a lot of people eating.

Weili messaged me that there is soccer in afternoon so I rushed back from Orchard to attend soccer. Only 3vs3 today and I felt quite disappointed but it turned out good. It is so fun although there is less people. When it is 4vs4, everyone is so concerned about winning and the losing team just feel rotten inside and it turned out so competitive instead of fun. Wee Kiat went home after 2 games and we just keep training after that. I said the goals must be emphatic so I was trying volleying and all stupid tactics the whole day.

Went to my grandma's house then and came home at 11.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United beat Charlton 2-0 in today's EPL match. A goal from Ryan Giggs and a superb volley from Scholes ensured the victory. This is only the second time in this season that Manchester United recorded back-to-back victories.

Last minute cancellation

2004-11-19T23:59:00.000+08:00

Today is another normal damn boring RTW day.

Woke up at 10 and ate breakfast. Played RTW and completed the german campaign. Played till like 4 and watched television. Took a short nap till 7.30. Watched a bit of the 'Happy Fish' and found out that Singapore shows just can't do well in long n-pee-soaks( pai say.. don't know how to spell). They don't have the proper crew to do this type of shows, like scriptwriters that can make the show interesting despite that it is dragging long. Damn it, stop following Taiwan shows.

Found out that recently temper is running quite short. Saw the ad on television of the new singer ' Zhang Dong Liang'. Damn it, not to offend any of his fans, he is so sissy and take other people's songs. I saw on the ad,' Huang Hun, Dang ni gu dan ni hui xiang qi shui'. Wu liao, who would pay to listen to the same songs. Still say what most anticipated new singer.

My mother called me this afternoon saying that my father and I are going to Mandarian Hotel tommorrow with my grandparents to eat free chicken rice. It is a bonus given to my aunt from her company. So, I messaged Weili to tell him that I couldn't go. Felt that wasted his whole day's work of contacting everyone, those who don't reply although they have a handphone. One example is Kee Wei, sometimes only though, like 90% of the time. It is quite irritating at times, so Weili is experiencing it every soccer week. ( This last sentence is used to soothe Weili's anger about me cancelling the soccer. hee hee...)

Came here to blog although I am going to sleep. However, when I turned on the somputer the first thing I did was play Fifa. Found out Ann Soon had went to his aunt's house to stay so he is not online, not that he blocked us.

Daily Man Utd news: Injury-plagued striker Louis Saha is facing three to four weeks on the sidelines after picking up a knee injury in France's 0-0 draw with Poland on Wednesday.
Saha, who was nursed through the end of last season after developing an Achilles complaint and has only just recovered from a knee problem which has restricted his appearances this term, has had a scan to find out the extent of the latest problem and is unlikely to play again until mid December.

Shoe Day!

2004-11-18T23:57:00.000+08:00

Woke up today alone and have to buy breakfast for myself...so lazy.

Went to meet Fu Shun and Weili at bus interchange and Weili is again late. Took 147 to Queensway Shopping Centre to buy shoes and the bus took forever to come and reach. When we got there, Weili say he is considering a possibility of buying both shoes and boots. We scouted around as usual to find the best price.

Went for lunch in the process at Mac. We tried the 'exothermic' reaction on Fu Shun. For the benefit of those that do not understand, I will explain. We told him to mix many sauce together and said it will produce heat. After making a messy lump of sauce in front of us, we told Fu Shun to feel the heat above the sauce. As his hand is above the sauce, I pushed it down and Fu Shun's hands is full of messy sauce! Weili is supposed to help me but he keep laughing from the time I suggested the trick. He can't even say a proper word out but Fu Shun didn't suspect. Too bad, great trick though.

After that, we decided on 2 shops to buy our shoes. I bought a pair of gold-colored 'total 90' street soccer shoes. Weili bought a pair of grey 'total 90 III' soccer boots. After that, went to Anchorpoint for a while to visit Weili's workplace when he was at Yeos.

Went to Weili's house to play RAW vs Smackdown then and kept laughing at 1 of the characters he created. There is 'niu mo quan' (Cow demon fist) and it was damn funny. This is a sequel to his 'banana man' in Smackdown 4, a big yellow character with his face at his stomach.

Went home by 8 and watched television until 11 when Kee Wei sms me for Gunbound. Played with them till now. Found out Weili's today blog post is simply crap and more crap. That's not the forum, man.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy hopes to be fit for Saturday's home match with Charlton Athletic despite suffering a hip injury in the Netherlands' 3-0 World Cup qualifying win in Andorra on Wednesday.
Van Nistelrooy was substituted in the first half and Dutch coach Marco van Basten said the striker had been in a lot of pain.
However, van Nistelrooy played down the injury.
'It is just a knock. It is nothing serious,' he said.
The United striker had only just returned to league action after serving a three-match suspension for a poor challenge on Arsenal's Ashley Cole last month.

China out of World Cup finals

2004-11-17T23:52:00.000+08:00

I saw from Weili's blog that Singapore lost to Japan 1-0. I think they are utterly mad and a bit stupid from my point. The time is 93 min+ and they have a corner. It is simple the last kick of the game. Yet, they only put like half the team in the penalty area. Even the keeper is not out. And when the keeper fumbled the ball, there is no one outside the penalty area to pick it up and cross again. So, they didn't take their chance.

The big news of the day is China is out of World Cup! They had same points with Kuwait before today's last match. But due to goal difference, they need to beat Hongkong by 2 more goals than the amount Kuwait beat Malaysia by. So, it must be +2 more. China won 7-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and Kuwait won 6-1...... So, bad luck. They score 1 more and it will be a rematch between Kuwait and China. This is the reason why FIFA only give Asia 3 world cup finals spots out of 36. The quality is so bad. Teams can win by 7-0 and 9-0 with ease, while we look at Euro 2004 and find that almost all teams are of the same standard.

Who cares about China.... let's talk about me. I woke up today at 11 at went to my grandma's house to eat as she is praying to the deities today and there is lots of food. Got there and had nothing to do due to my cousins not appearing. I had only my 2 baby cousins to play with. They are simply a big headache. Quarelling over this and that, shouting down the whole neighbourhood. The brother don't give way to the sister and the sister does the vice versa. I really admire my grandparents who take care of them everyday.

Went home by 4 and played RTW till dinner. Watched television then and hack care about that Japan-Singapore match. Waiting to see the England-Spain match that satrts at 4.45am. Although it is just a friendly match, it still beats watching those Asia teams trying to fight their way into the World Cup finals when they usually are out by the group stage.

Daily Man Utd news: Ruud van Nistelrooy has urged his Manchester United team-mates to build on an impressive 3-1 victory over Newcastle to keep their title hopes alive. Sunday brought a much-improved performance, and the Dutch striker is keen to build on the victory. "The result at Newcastle was great," said van Nistelrooy. "I hope it gives us the lift we need and we can build up a head of steam. It was disappointing after the win against Arsenal to then lose at Portsmouth and draw with Manchester City."

Can't find Weili!!

Today woke up at 11 when my auntie called and asked me of 1 book of Geography elective that my cousin would wish to have. They can't find it in Popular and asked me if I had it. In the end, I can't even find my secondary 4 Geography textbook and it isn't what they want.

Went for western breakfast that I had last saturday with Kee and Weili. It wasn't so good now.

Then came home tried Kazaa. Oh my god, they must have just updated their database. They had all the latest songs and songs that I couldn't find a week ago on the same program. I quickl;y informed Weili and couldn't find him on Msn. When I see the list, it reminded me that Fartgas is also not seen for a couple of days. Guess he blocked us, so as Weili say, don't care. Downloaded about 40+ songs and got dizzy.

Finally found Weili at 10 and saw his blog and found out what he is doing. In case you don't know what the address is, it is Serangoon Central. Going with him to Queenstown for shoes on thursday.

Daily Man Utd news: Gary Neville last night claimed Manchester United are the last team Chelsea and Arsenal want breathing down their necks in the race for the Premiership title. Although United trail leaders Chelsea by 11 points and are nine behind second-placed Arsenal, Neville is convinced Sir Alex Ferguson's men can close the gap.
"The one team Chelsea and Arsenal won't want coming up behind them is us," said Neville. "You can be sure of that. The win over Newcastle was vital and hopefully it can be the start of a winning run. If we can get on a run of victories then we can close the gap."
The last sentence was also said after Man Utd's win over Arsenal. But they losed immediately in the next match to Portsmouth.

Jaded day

2004-11-15T23:36:00.000+08:00

Today woke up at 7.30 feeling really tired as the match yesterday between Man Utd - Newcastle ended at 2. I got a little stomachache and reached there by 8.20 when soccer is at 8. I was shocked to see no one there, at least there should be one that is not late. Feeling really puzzled and messaged Weili. He told me that soccer is at 8.30! Lol...I guess I am in fault for not reading his sms as I thought it is the same old thing.

Today's soccer objective is to try out Stanley's new Euro2004 ball. It turned out to be quite good. However, everyone is so sian sian as everyone is so jaded after Saturday's soccer. If not for Stanley's ball, I guess no one will be there. The whole soccer session went by so boring. When someone scores, there is no celebration at all. So boring....

Went home by 11.30 and ate breakfast. Sleeped a little then till 4 as there is a heavy downpour. The thunder woke me up. Ate lunch and played RTW a little till dinner. Watched television and came back to play fifa2005.

That's basically all. Weili want to go to buy shoes at thursday. I suggested Wednesday. Can we change back to Thursday?

Daily Man Utd news: Glory Glory Manchester United! Three wonderfully vital points came United's way with an impressive 3-1 win over Newcastle United 3-1 at St James' Park.
Strikers Wayne Rooney (2) and Ruud van Nistelrooy (penalty) were the goalscorers as United kept their Premiership hopes alive.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was optimistic about the rest of the season after beating Newcastle 3-1 - despite saying United's title hopes were all but over just one week ago.
Cristiano Ronaldo had one of his worst games in this match. Constant diving and dreadful shooting highlighted the problem.

Responsible Blogger

2004-11-14T23:03:00.000+08:00

I actually have no time to post today as I am watching a match now and it lasts till 12. at 12, it is the big battle between Man Utd and Newcastle. However, being a responsible, kind, helpful, intelligent blogger, I must post on my blog regularly. ( Ann Soon is not posting regularly so the above traits does not apply to him)

Today is simply another typical boring day. Woke up at 10 and ate breakfast. Played RTW and time went by fast. Before I knew it, it was 4 already. Watched more television and played computer till dinner.

Was watching a match when I remembered my blog so I came here to post. There is soccer again tommorrow as Stanley is coming back. However, my father's leave ends tommorrow and my mum wants me to eat breakfast together tommorrow. Hai..... first time felt so sad going to soccer. Choi!!! Choi!!! Why I say until like something going to happen? Lots of breakfast chances what, soccer can't be missed. That's basically all. Hope to see Stanley's new Euro2004 ball tommorrow.

Daily Man Utd news: Ryan Giggs has cast doubt over his future at Manchester United by admitting he has yet to agree terms on a new contract.
The 30-year-old Welsh winger has been a feature of United's amazing run of success since making his debut in 1990, appearing in over 500 games for the Red Devils.
However, he told the News of the World: 'I have been offered a one-year extension to my current deal but I turned it down.
'I was hoping for a longer deal. I want to end my career at Manchester United and asked them to reconsider.
'The club have gone away to consider it and we're now waiting to arrange a second meeting.

Soccer haven!

2004-11-13T23:40:00.000+08:00

Yesterday I said I felt something wrong with today's soccer. In the end, it proved a great day with only Wee Kiat failing to turn up due to a fever.

We played 3 matches today. It was the second match that had all the excitement. My team was proving too much for milo's team. We were leading 1-0 in half time. In the second half, Joseph scored with only like 10 seconds after it started. Then he scored again to make us lead 3-0. Then we were full of confidence and blasted their goal with lots of shots. But all were blocked off by milo. Then Weili took us by surprise and scored 2 goals from counter attacking.We started panicking and tried more and more shots. Me alone had almost 6-7 shots on target blocked off by milo. A chance then came. Milo went off his line and I was about to launch a long shot at his empty goal. JUST THEN, an old lady was walking behind the goal and I can't possibly shoot as it will hit her. However, in the end, milo couldn't possibly play god the whole half. I scored 2 more goals and finished them off including a superb volley.

After soccer, Weili, Kee and me went for breakfast before going home. Played RTW for somt time before having lunch. Then, I went to sleep at 4.30.

Slept till 9.30 and it was my father who woke me up. Otherwise, I could have slept till tommorrow.Watched some soccer and was not quite interested as they are all so boring.

Daily Man Utd news: Roy Keane is ready to walk out on Manchester United at the end of this season because he no longer believes he can perform to his own high standards. Keane, now 33, has become disillusioned with his form this season as United have stuttered through their Premiership campaign.

Boring day....

2004-11-12T23:21:00.000+08:00

Weili say he is not going to Jay's concert because no one is accompanying him. The fact is he has never asked anyone of us. I guess he is just saving money for Jolin's concert. Hee hee....

Today is a typical marathon day. Felt so bored the whole day and nothing to do. So it is just games the whole day. Tried to download albums from Lameristic but it changed a format and had to use a program. The instructions given is clear but the program still didn't help me download.

I heard that Arafat was dead last night. I mourned the day for him by playing Fifa 2005 and RTW. That's basically all for today. Got a weird feeling about tommorow's soccer, perhaps it will rain.

Daily Man Utd news: Rio Ferdinand does not want to look at the Premiership table until Manchester United are back in the top two.
'I don't like looking at the league table when we are not in the top two,' the England defender told BBC GMR.
'We want to be sitting at the top, looking down on everybody else but at the moment the championship race is not looking pretty because we are not where we want to be.

Orchard trip

2004-11-11T23:05:00.000+08:00

Today everyone was cheated by Weili to go to Orchard to help buy gifts for Prom Night.
1. He told me S5 is going, and he told that to everyone.
2. He said we are buying the top gifts, so I thought it is just 3 gifts with a big budget and we will get over it in a short time. In the end, it is 25 gifts of $16! 25!!!

Let's start with today.
Woke up at 10.30am and felt very sleepy. However, as I have to meet Fu Shun by 11.45, I have to wake up. Ate a big breakfast and set off with Fu Shun.

When we got to Orchard, saw Bong and was surprised as we thought we are buying prom gifts. Till now, I still don't know why is he there. We went to Far East Plaza first and spent some time there. Then everyone felt hungry and went for lunch at 1.30 when I just ate breakfast at 11.30. Sucks, I sat there and see them eat. I felt so bored and hoped for something to do.

After 5 mins, I regretted that bored feeling. Maria got something for me to do that is to help her choose gifts. She told me she is at Royal Sporting House at level 1. But when I got there, found out the name is Sports Interlink and thought I got it wrong. However, I saw her inside. BLUR.....
After buying some gifts there, went to Body Shop and bought more.

Met Kim then and walked back to meet them. Then ,we walked back to Orchard MRT to go to Wisma or taka. When S5 saw the MRT station, all 5 of us got this burning desire to go home instead of walking the whole day looking for gifts that are not for us. So, we departed and went to Weili's house to play RAW vs Smackdown.

When we are on the MRT, my stomach was extremely hungry. I also feel so weird going to somewhere to eat at this moment and make them wait, although they 100% wouldn't wait. Kee said the sentence of the day. 'Cup noodles at weili's house'

So, ate at Weili's house. Ate away his last cup of noodles. Hai... Weili, because of that cup noodles, I feel indebted to you, so touched, it is simply sending coal in a snowstorm. ( Although I also feel so when he helped me bought the com, lent the digital cam to me, fix bugs on my computer, fix my blog etc. )

Played till 7.30 and went home. Watched Singapore Idol the first time after the auditions as I saw the highlights of previous weeks on last saturday and found it not bad. I guess Weili would support Sylvester till the finals.

PS: We gave kee his 'Mutu' shirt and he still didn't notice anything wrong with it. He also didn't feel thankful for that gift. Too bad for him... he should take note of recent news and our blogs. He didn't, and that's the result.

Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United's second string beat Cystal Palace 2-0 in the League Cup with goals from Louis Saha and Kieran Richardson. Although Manchester United and other top teams don't give a damn about this cup, they meet Arsenal FC in the next round. It could still be a watchful match.

Shopping for Prom Night gifts

2004-11-10T23:28:00.000+08:00

Yesterday night sent weili a message saying I will accompany him go buy gifts as I think it will be so boring going alone to see everywhere for gifts.

However, found out Ann Soon don't want to go and Fu Shun can't spare the time as he is looking for jobs. In the end, only I am accompaning Weili. We met at 2.30 at the mrt.

Went to Heartland mall and the first thing is to explore the new extension of the building. Then went to Popular and chose some gifts. Weili say want to shit....so we went out without buying anything and I stood outside a video shop waiting for him. Watched a bit of Gongfu Soccer and it is 95% similiar to Shaolin Soccer, also very exaggerating speed of the ball when it is kicked.

After he came back, we watched together then went back to Popular. Bought a Parker fountain pen costing 19.90, a voucher of $10 (combined with a $10 watch bought last time) and 2 $5 vouchers.

As our objective is 4 gifts of $20 and 2 gifts of $5, we are only left with 2 $20 gifts. Went to eat Old Chang Kee and continued on our journey to Compasspoint.

Got there and continued the eating spree. Went to buy sushi to eat. Then, with a full stomach, went to Metro to shop for gifts. Bought a Pierre Cardin wallet costing $26. It is over budget but the salesgirl say Metro is having 10% descount. When we went to pay, it is still $26...... i guess they deducted it liao.

Then the next 2 hours is simply a waste of time. We went through the whole Compasspoint and just can't find the last gift. In between it we continued our eating spree. Weili went to buy a Yakitori or what la.

Went home then and went to Neighbourhood shop. Weili bought his RAW vs Smackdown while I saw my football manager 2005. Went to look around Central but still can't find the last gift...hai...

Went home and ate dinner. Went to sleep at 8 because of the heavy dinner. Until.........................................WEILI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
woke me up at 10.30 with his sms about going to Orchard tomorrow. He and some excos going to buy the top gifts of Prom Night. It doesn't concern me and I was plannign not to go. But I see they all going..then ok la....

Daily Man Utd news: Tim Howard and Phil Neville have slammed Alex Ferguson for leaving them out of Manchester United’s stuttering side. Boss Fergie dropped keeper Howard in September after a string of boobs. And the American, 25, said: “A goalkeeper is a very convenient scapegoat. I understand that. “I am always going to own up to my mistakes. Did I lose us games? No. Did I contribute to it? Yes. But it takes 11 of us to win and 11 of us to lose. But I know it's going to be OK. There are a lot worse things going on in the world than me sitting on the bench and being one match away from being a starter again."

England ace Neville, 27, only signed a new five-year contract in the summer but he is fed up with a bit-part role. He said: "I have started three games in six months, which isn't good enough really. I played against Arsenal and Portsmouth and thought I did OK, but then I found myself out of the team again. It is frustrating and I don't know why it has been like that."

Games day

2004-11-09T23:29:00.000+08:00

Although blogging should be about today, I have to make an exception of a super amazing discovery by Great Gary that is worth being shown on Discovery Channel.

I finished blogging last night and went to my parents' room. We started talking about what job would be best. I then got a extremely super idea. The best way of life is to strike Toto. I am sure you are now thinking' Who don't know, siao.'. But what if it is only like a million? THE BEST WAY is to put it in the bank to gain interest or invest in their capital-safe investment. Goodness me, I don't have to work anymore in my whole life and the bank will give money to me every year!!!

Ah ya, I knew you all won't be interested in the stupid dream of mine. Let's get to the point. I got up at 11 today and ate breakfast. Hai... then you all know, it is the marathon again. It is still not stopping. It is gaining speed instead. Ann Soon also know what I doing when I not replying him in Msn liao.

Played RTW, watch television until dinner and again watched television. Soccer cancelled tommorrow because not enough people. Swimming also cancelled because Fu Shun can't find his swimming trunks. I found out today that Kee Wei went camping and don't know went where. It is his mother who told me. Looks like have to wait till weekends before sports start.

Daily Man Utd news: Just when he thought things could not get any worse for Manchester United, Alex Ferguson has been hit over the head with the most damning statistic of all. His £68.8million strike force of Ruud van Nistelrooy, Wayne Rooney, Alan Smith and Louis Saha is currently Old Trafford’s most impotent for 31 years.

Van Nistelrooy, bought from PSV for £19m, Rooney, a £30m import from Everton, Smith, who cost £7m from Leeds and Saha, a £12.8m buy from Fulham, have mustered a pitiful SIX of the paltry 11 goals United have scored in their opening 12 Premiership games this season. And the last time a United side fired as many blanks as that, they ended up being relegated back in the 1973-74 season.

Blog Song

2004-11-08T23:21:00.000+08:00

Today is basically another boring typical computer games day.

Woke up at 10 and started playing rome total war with a new faction till about 3. In the middle , eat breakfast and watch a bit television. (gosh...I played so long....)

Lunchtime! After lunch, went to do up the blog's song. However, it encountered countless problems and even creating a new account at Angelfire to store my song file didn't work out. Planning to ask Ann Soon but too lazy to do so. I am simply hooked on fifa 2005 and RTW.

Played till dinner and watched television. then the marathon continued and I took some time off to blog here. Annsoon's being asking me to go school tomorrow to visit. 1 word can describe the trip to me. 'SIAN'. weili's going to Heartland to buy gifts. I can't believe I didn't volunteer to go with him. Help!!!! Games are taking up my life.......

Daily Man Utd news: Sunday proved another sad day for Manchester United fans. Manchester United have drawn 0-0 with Manchester City in this Manchester derby despite dominating the game.
Frustrated Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has left his misfiring strikeforce in no doubt there are no excuses for their current pitiful form.
'The form we are showing is not good enough to win the championship. Nine parts of our game are right but it is the 10th, which is so important, that is not being done. The goalscoring part of our game is not giving us any encouragement.

Kee Wei's present

2004-11-07T22:24:00.000+08:00

Today woke up at 11 and started watching television, football extra at ESPN. Got pissed of that Chelsea scored a late goal and won the game. And it is the as*hole *sshole a*shole ( got put asterix... u all sure don't know what the word is) Robben who scored. The player who joined Chelsea just because Man Utd have not settled a deal with PSV, his old club.

After watching, had steamboat again for lunch because my grandma gave a lot of leftovers from her steamboat. So, combined with our leftovers, the ingredients are still a lot.

After eating, I went to meet Fu Shun and Weili at the bus interchange to buy a present for Kee Wei. However, after waiting for 30 minutes, I found out that they are at the mrt station waiting for me! This is due to a lack of communication.

We took the mrt to Little India and walked a long way to Bugis instead of taking the train straight to Bugis because the trip is too long. After we finally got to the jersey shop that we planned to buy a present for kee wei there, we found out that his stock is quite limited compared to last time. I was planning to buy a Rooney or Smith shirt but the entire shop's Man Utd stock is missing. Hai..... Just as we were planning to leave with a depressed heart, we found the PERFECT present for him. Weili was going through all the shirts for the last time and he was saying ' Nth much leh.... wah cost $2 more with names on.... mmm... Crespo..Henry...Mutu... Owen..Rooney....MUTU!!!!!!!!!!' All of us were immediately shocked that they were selling mutu's chelsea shirt there. We bought it immediately.

For your infomation, Mutu is the chelsea player sacked a couple of weeks ago for taking cocaine.

Then, we went to 7-11 to get ourselves a cold drink. I got a slurpee and went to pay. Fu and Weili were filling theirs. After i was back, I stand beside Weili and waited for him. He was filling..filling... then stopped. It was stuck. He turned back and turned on again. Still nth. He puched it to full blast.
BOMB!!!!!!!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!! The red apple slurpee flew everywhere, on fu's shirt, pants, floor, fu's feet. And it is only Fu Shun! Bad luck to him. Even the one standing in the middle had nothing on himself. Fu Shun was standing at the left and hoo hoo hoo.....

We went all the way back to Sim Lim's Square and used their toilet because they said it was higher class. After cleaning, we looked for gifts that Weili is supposed to buy for Prom Night.
We can't find anything and went to OG, Seiyu and bugis market , parco bugis junction and only bought a watch.Hai.... wasted so many time and energy. After that, we went to Weili's house to play PS2.

Came back home after that and had steamboat for dinner. Ya, you did not see wrong. It is steamboat again. It just can't be finished. Then I came here to update my blog. It took 30 minutes to write this post. Please give some comments. Is it too detailed and 'low so' and boring or it is detailed, informative and interesting? Then, next time I will know write how long.

Daily Man Utd news: FIFA president Sepp Blatter has backed Manchester United supporters' groups in their opposition to Malcolm Glazer's attempts to buy the club - though insists he cannot use his position of power to intervene directly. Shareholders United of Manchester United have also been boosted by news that US-based law firm Weil Gotshal and Manges have offered to advise them for free in their fight against Glazer, who has redefined the terms of an offer for the 29% stake held by Cubic Expression pair John Magnier and JP McManus.

Blog still no music...

2004-11-06T23:40:00.000+08:00

My blog still have not added in any music... basically it is due to my laziness. I bet a few of them are thinking that I am not updating the blog for today. BUT, this is the reform of me!!! I am going to update everyday (normally after a week then never update liao.)

Today woke up at 7.45 and went for soccer. It is quite fun as we managed to get more people than usual. However, I still did not have much fun before everyone was tired and wanted to go. Came back,ate lunch and sleeped.

Woke up at 4 and played COMPUTER ( error restored) until dinner. Had steamboat till 6 and went to my grandma's house. Got there and found out they having steamboat too. I didn't eat any because I was too full. Stayed there till 11 watching tv. came back and got bored by Chelsea's and Liverpool's scoreless match. Didn't watch finish and came here to update.

Daily Man Utd news: Alex Ferguson will take up the one-year rolling option on his contract and continue as Manchester United boss next season. Ferguson celebrates 18 years in charge at Old Trafford in the Manchester derby tomorrow. With the club struggling in the League, rumours had begun to spread Fergie may decide to step down in the summer. But yesterday the Scot, who this year underwent a heart operation, said he will carry on as long as he still feels healthy. Ferguson, 62, said: "It is difficult to say how much longer I'll be here. When you get to my age, it all depends on your health. But I feel fit and fresh and, as long as I keep enjoying the job, I'll carry on."

I am back!!!!

Ferguson said after the game: "He's certainly the best, most clinical finisher we've ever seen here."His record is unbelievable. It's amazing. He's cool with his finishing. He doesn't panic and he has a quickness of feet as well. You hope all the chances fall to him.

Daily Man Utd news:Sir Alex Ferguson believes Wayne Rooney can make the same kind of impression as Eric Cantona following his multi-million pound move to Old Trafford.The United boss is relishing the chance of working with the "best youngster in 30 years," and feels Rooney has the ability to inspire the club to a new era of dominance."I can see Wayne having the same impact as Eric had on the team when I signed him,"
Fergie told the Sunday papers."Eric came at a time when we hadn't won the title for 26 years and he was the man of a very important moment. Since then we have won a few titles but now we're trying to step up a few notches to a better level of play."In 30 years as a manager he is the best youngster I have seen," added the Reds boss. "It is a hell of a lot of money to pay for an 18-year-old - more than twice what we paid for Cristiano Ronaldo. "But the fee is a reflection of his progress over the past year and the signs in the European Championship were quite clear, and although he is only 18, he can play at that level against the best.

Ronaldo opened the scoring in the 58th minute as he tucked the ball away from close range with the home defence in disarray after a barrage of shots and deflections.

Mad game

2004-08-28T21:49:00.000+08:00

2day woke up at 7.50 n went 4 soccer. We started the first game n i made myself a 20-goal target which means my total goal 2day mus reach 20 goals.
First game: My team were basically santa claus, giving away goal lik water,especially donny. I scored 4 though.
The remaining 2games i was basically wif stanley who is oso attack style. He took most of the goals leaving me wif a total goal tally of only 11 at the end of the day. Mus b the new boots, last time i can score lik mad...now very cham.
Let's not bore every1.... I came back n played medal of honour borrowed from kee. Kee say got teammates help 1 in the game, however, when i played it it is a 1-man show.
Ann and weili later came 2gether n played a little of the game 2. They left very fast.
I continued playing nother game n the new tv came!!!! My dad ordered a new 29 inch flat screen tv and it came wif a free dvd player wif only $700! i tink it is quite cheap.
After tt, ate at 6, dunno is lunch or dinner. WEnt 2 slp...
Didn't go 2 my grandma's hse s epl starts very early 2day n when i get there i will b only spending time at my cousin's hse who has scv instead of my grandma's. So, i decided not 2 go n stayed at home.
7.45- Blackburn vs Man Utd
Although i didn't 1 2 bore u all wif these stuffs, tis is a classic game 2day.....
Blackburn scoed at the 17th min wif a super tight angle goal. First haf-1-0
Second haf- tt where the fun came. Man Utd struck back wif super attacking, OVER 20+ SHOTS!!!! However, the blackburn goalkeeper were simply unstoppable, stopping over 10 sure-goal-shot. Man Utd were very fed up wif the unluckiness... Jus then, Blackburn got a red card but Man Utd jus cant go through the keeper.Ferguson saw tt the situation was not right. He got every attacking players he got on the bench and substituted the maximum 3 substitutes. However, they jus cant get through the KEEPER!!!!
90 min is up and there is 4 added mins. All blackburn fans were protesting s there isn't much time wasted in the second haf, y is there so much xtra time? I was beginning 2 feel Man Utd's luck change.
Very fast, 3mins is gone and offside is given 2 Blackburn. They lifted the ball far and high into the Blackburn penalty box. Saha headed the ball back 2 Smith and Smith hitted the ball wif his left foot. GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fantastic!!!!! the time is 3min30secs.....Blackburn was so close 2 victory.....and they jus relaxed 4 tt 10 secs and ..........
However, the controvestral point is the video showed tt Saha actually BOXED the ball back 2 Smith instead of the 'head' tt every1 saw. Tt means he handballed n the referee didn't see!!!!!
All fans at the stadium was booing the refs s they really seem 2 favour the Man Utd team, red card, 4min xtra time, handball......
Daily Man Utd news: Former David Beckham has told Wayne Rooney: You can rely on Alex Ferguson to set you on the right road at Manchester United. England skipper Becks’ advice came on the day Rooney, 18, hit Everton with a transfer request. Rooney said: “I want to join a club that is playing in Europe every year.” He will opt for a dream £25m move to United ahead of Newcastle. And Becks admitted: “I’ve always been grateful for guidance Sir Alex Ferguson gave me and never criticised it. When players go through tough times, he is a very strong person. He believes players in his team and at United should be looked after.”

Cremation of Mr Maxx

2004-08-12T23:02:00.000+08:00

2day jus went 2 sch n did the usual stuffs. I wont continue on tt. Only say tt my ptn wont approve my leave of absence n i juus shrugged off n still didn't attend lessons after WEBP practical.
Met annsoon, kee n amanda n went 4 lunch b4 going 2 AMK. Joked n laughed all the way n eveery1 i tink sort of isn't so heavy wif sadness over mr maxx's death already which is a gd thing. I can say mr maxx is a real frenly person n nice 2 b wif. I hav 2 say i really wasn't very close 2 him. The best i can remember him was 3 events.
1. S4 suddely lik 2 play soccer during sec 3 but all of us didn't hav a ball. Weili knew Mr Maxx had 1 n we always borrowed from him. Sumtimes we plaed till 6+ n he is still there waiting 4 us 2 return the ball. He could hav gone home first but he is such a responsible person.
2. 'O' lvls. We sumtimes hav time over 2 papers n we everytime went 2 his server rm 2 use his aircon, eat his noodles, watch his comics, hug his pillows, sit his sofa n mak such noise n he didn't get angry or wat. Sumtimes spill things he oso didn't even get a bit mad. He would jus tell us 2 wipe it off n he didn't mind.....
3. Councillor Camp: Tis is when we graduated. Every1 had 2 slp in the hall. Weili say Mr Maxx would let us slp in library 1. We were so sure tt he would,dunno y. He even let us watch the tv in imac rm despite having 2 sav electricity in the library. Thw whole lib's aircon was hot, almost didn't on n he himself suffering the temperature n we were using it 2 watch tv n not 2 mention switching on the aircon in the imac rm 2 mak ourselves cool.
From the ppl tt came 2 pay their last respects, i can see tt wat a gd man he is.....
Reached AMK n chatte wif others 4 a while b4 goingon a chartered bus 2 'Yang ming shan' 2 cremate his body. Tears didn't drop from me but i did get a sort of sour feeling when i saw the fire burning the coffin. We then went back 2 AMK n took a bus home. Weili n I were so deep in thought mayb n didn't speak much....
Daily Man Utd news: Champions League Qualifying round:It may not have been a classic European performance, but with injuries, international commitments, inclement weather and even bomb scares conspiring to disrupt United's plan, Sir Alex will be pleased with his side's 2-1 first leg win.United came back from going a goal down in the ninth minute against Dinamo Bucharest in the third round qualifier in Romania to claim a crucial first-leg advantage.Forced into an unfamiliar-looking first eleven, which included Roy Keane in defence and John O'Shea in midfield, Ferguson was pleased, and most certainly relieved, to return to Old Trafford with a victory

Daily Man Utd news:Alex Ferguson will ask the Manchester United board for money to save the club's season. United's campaign is in danger of collapsing before it has even begun as their injury and availability nightmare worsens by the day. The Old Trafford boss has revealed that Ruud van Nistelrooy's hernia problem will keep the Dutchman out for six weeks - rather than a month as was first thought. And there are fears Louis Saha could be out with his knee ligament injury for much longer than the three weeks Fergie was told originally by medical staff. With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer out for the season, Ferguson is left with just Alan Smith and Diego Forlan as main strikers for up to eight games
Sir Alex Ferguson is set to leap into the transfer market to solve Manchester United's striker crisis. The United boss arrived in Bucharest for tonight's Champions League qualifier refusing to rule out a new signing before the transfer deadline at the end of the month.

The Manchester United striker is already out for the season and surgeons have warned his damaged right knee is unlikely to ever be strong enough. Solskjaer said: "I am aware I might never play again." And the Norwegian’s surgeon Lars Petersson, who conducted an exploratory operation on Sunday, admitted he could not offer much hope. Petersson said: "The convalescence period will be very long. He is 31 and there’s a chance he might play again, but I cannot give him any guarantees."

National Day!!!!

2004-08-09T17:00:00.000+08:00

Last nite already apply a lot of 'YOKO YOKO' on my injured leg s 2day there is soccer again.
Woke up at 7.50 same s weili n both of us quickly rush s we r meeting at 8. In the end, i reached at 8.10 buy weili reached at 8.40. Dunno y he so long.....
Played s normal n came 2 a special game.
Team 1- Donny,stanley, fu shun
Team 2- Injured weili, Defender Kum Sin, Me
Every1 tink we sure lose s there is 2 handicaps in my team.
First haf: 5-0 2 stanley's team. We cant defend at all wif they 3 kept passing around. Weili is not 2 mobile due 2 his leg.
Second haf: I told Kum Sin not 2 back off when defending them. We 2 kept tackling despite their dribbling. We dun stop at all 2 giv them time 2 breathe. In the end, the strategy worked n the final score is 8-7. Although we lost, it is a strategy proven sucessful.
When i got home, played com n watched tv n try not 2 slp cos when i slp, i would wake up at least after 4 hrs.
However, i cant bear it in the end n slp at 5. Later woke up n watched national day parade Singapore idol. Found out Singapore dun hav much talents....hee hee....
Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United lost 2 Arsenal 3-1 in the Community shield cos of dreadful defending. However,Ryan Giggs is hoping that history repeats itself yet again following United's Community Shield defeat against Arsenal.
Traditionally, the winners of the Shield have failed to win the league the following season, and Giggs is more than happy to accept yesterday's loss if he is clutching another Premiership medal next May.
Giggs said: "Every time I have lost in the Charity [Community] Shield we have gone on to win something big, so hopefully that can continue and repeat itself."
"It was disappointing to lose but it meant we got another game in before the Champions League qualifier on Wednesday, we have to take the plus points out of that and it meant a lot of the lads getting another game getting some fitness under their belt.
"The bigger picture is Wednesday's game then Sunday's trip to Chelsea. We have a hectic start to the season."
United find themselves desperately short of players ahead of Wednesday's Champions League trip to Bucharest, but Giggs would rather soldier through the crisis rather than bleat about it.

Community shield day

2004-08-08T16:53:00.000+08:00

2woke up at 11 n watched tv, play com the whole day... rest days r lik tt...... looking forward 2 the community shield 2nite although i noe both teams will put reserves into the match....cos long time nv watch epl teams liao..........sry it is so short...my life quite boring ma....
Daily Man Utd news: Manchester United will not put their first team into match wif Arsenal 2nite cos of injuries n suspensions...... No 1 would lik 2 get the shield bcause it is a jinx s said by experts. Only 1 team hav got on 2 get the EPL champ after getting the shield( man utd in 96). So, it is unlikely tt Arsenal will put its full team down 2.

Muscle tear!!!

2004-08-07T23:27:00.000+08:00

2day met soccer gang 4 soccer n wanted 2 try out my new boots. I was the first 1 there n waited 4 10 mins b4 stanley came.
Every1 soon came n we started our game. However, a unlucky thing happened s weili is injured wif only 5 mins of the game going. He sat there n found out his toe was bleeding. He said he kik on a stone. He had 2 rest n we continued.
Donny went home after jus 2 hrs s he say mus do project. I was feeling so puzzled s there is 3 days 2 do n he is so anxious 2 do it now??
We stopped very early s weili really couldn't continue n we dun hav enuff ppl. We started training then. I n kum sin was bombarding shots at stanley when the sedond unfortunate thing happened.
I was trying 2 vollry tis ball after i controlled it a while. However, the angle was wrong but i still 'ying ying lai'. After i kicked the ball, the small calf of my right leg suddely contracted n it resulted in a cramp.....i was in such pain tt i shouted n lied on the ground shouting in pain. Kee was the first 1 recognizing it n quickly came 2 my aid. Fu nweili sat there tinking mayb i was joking or wat.
Couldn't continue also n went home later limping.
I thought it is jus a cramp n it would go away......however, i tink the worst happened. I could hav tore a muscle or strain it s the pain didn't go away.....
I slp through the afternoon n woke up at 7 2 go 2 my grandma's hse.
came back n the pain is not reducing at all. guess it is quite serious......mus see how tml....
Daily Man Utd news:Paul Scholes and Darren Fletcher will be in the starting line-up to face Arsenal but, following the abandonment of Thursday's encounter with Urawa Red Diamonds, are likely to be some way short of match fitness in Bucharest as the newly-retired England man has managed only 60 minutes' action in pre-season so far, while Fletcher has not played at all.
With Ferguson keen to protect the players who are fit and will be required in Bucharest on Wednesday, the likes of Jonathan Spector, Phil Bardsley and Chris Eagles could be handed an unexpected opportunity to build on their impressive performances during last month's United States tour.
'We have been a bit unlucky so far,' admitted Silvestre.
'It's difficult for the manager to put a team together for a friendly every three days, so we are lucky to have a number of good, young players that means we are always able to play a decent team.
'You never know what is going to happen but with the Champions League game now so close, we have to try to stay clear of injuries tomorrow.'

New boots!!!

2004-08-06T23:10:00.000+08:00

i will mak tis entry short.....cos it is sat liao...he ehee....
Went 2 sch.
Went home.
Went wif fu, weili n kee 2 queensway shopping centre. Kee kept giving wrong directions n mak us go the wrong way. In the end, we reached there after asking ppl 4 directions.
We went n look around n choose 4 a long time b4 agreeing on a price n boot. It is the second generation 'Total 90' boots by Nike. Quite cheap considering the quality n brand...$50. A normal boots would cost $30-$40.....
after buying, they suggested going 2 mac n kept making me treat them. After the $50, i was almost broke n they r so greedy. 1 me 2 treat them 2 a xtra value meal each. i didn't n kee will start grumbling n so...
Went 2 tak bus home s the mrt station is very far away. There is bus 153 n 147 there. weili can confirm the 147 is rite n kee say the 153 is also rite. After waiting 4 20 mins, The bus 153 came n we all went up. I quickly confirmed wif kee if the bus is rite direction. I asked at least 3 times. He said it is rite. In the end, we ended up in Bukit Merah interchange n hav 2 tak 1 hr bus trip home.......( without mentioning the 15min wait).
Daily Man Utd news: Ryan Giggs is eager to add another Community Shield winners' medal to his collection on Sunday - but knows it is meaningless compared to qualifying for Europe's top competition.
The Welshman believes what happens in Cardiff pales into insignificance compared to the Champions League qualifier against Dinamo Bucharest on Wednesday.
Giggs is expected to be part of a weakened Manchester United line-up facing Arsenal at the Millennium Stadium as Sir Alex Ferguson tries to ensure he has a fully match-fit squad available for the midweek trip to Romania.
In addition to the seven first-teamers Ferguson has already ruled out of Wednesday's game, Louis Saha and Wes Brown are struggling with minor injuries, Darren Fletcher has yet to make a pre-season appearance and Paul Scholes has just 60 minutes of action behind him.
It leaves the United boss with the tricky problem of naming a side to face the Gunners that gives some of his team much-needed match practice, while protecting others from injuries.

The United forward spent seven years playing for England, during which he earned 66 caps and scored 14 goals.
Paul said: "This is a decision I have not taken lightly, I have been considering retiring from International football for a while now.
"I started my England career in 1997 and have enjoyed seven years of great football, playing in the best competitions, with some of the best players, under the best managers.
"Euro 2004 was fantastic but afterwards I felt the time was right for myself and my family to make it my last England appearance.
"I would like to thank everyone at England for the wonderful years I had playing for the team and all the experience I gained. I wish them all the best and good luck for the future."

Sir Alex Ferguson has denied reports in the Spanish press that Diego Forlan is poised to make a loan move to newly-promoted La Liga side Levante.Forlan's future at Old Trafford has come under the microscope this summer after Ferguson signed Louis Saha in January and Alan Smith early in the close-season.Levante have indicated Forlan is La Liga bound. But the Uruguayan striker, who played in United's friendly win over PSV on Tuesday night, is going nowhere according to Ferguson.

Daily Man Utd news:Roy Keane insists that United's winless tour of America cannot yet be classed as a failure.
The Reds skipper prefers to look at the positives to emerge from the ten day trip.
He said: "Only time will tell how good the preparation was on tour. Last year we came away with four good performances and four good results. You thought we would go on to conquer the world but it wasn't to be.
"You have to look at the bonuses. Some of the younger lads have done well and Alan Smith has settled in, not just in games but also in the dressing room and in training."
The Premiership begins again for United on August 15, but before they head down to Stamford Bridge there are two Vodafone Cup games as well as the Community Shield and a Champions League qualifier to worry about.

Daily Man Utd news:Forgotten goalkeeper Ricardo defiantly insists that he intends to become United's first choice between the sticks.The Spaniard spent last season on loan at Racing Santander, and is perceived as lagging behind Tim Howard and Roy Carroll in the race to be Sir Alex Ferguson's starting keeper.
But with a potential start against PSV Eindhoven in Tuesday night's Vodafone Cup clash looming, Ricardo insists that his future lies at Old Trafford.
He said: "I always believe that I am capable of being the number one. I believe in myself. I have worked hard all my life to get to this position at a club like Manchester United and I am not going to drop my hands and give up. I am going to fight for my place. I won't give in.
"I have come back with more power and more confidence. I always wanted to come back to Manchester. I didn't go back to Spain last year to try and get a permanent move back to the Spanish League."
