yello, theres a lot to write but im kinda lazy these few days. ok lets start with the euro semi finals matches. both matches were exciting in their own right, turkey and germany produced 3 goals in between them in the final 11 min of the game. the turks fairytale journey was finally ended by lahm's late strike. next up was spain, dismantling the russians with their slick, eye-candy passing football. arshavin was a letdown, heavily subdued throughout the match. euro 2008 finals will be germany vs spain. w00t!

first week of school, gotten back almost all our ica results except for pom, results was ok, hope i passed pom. this week got no mood, never do all tutorials. sian la got html and oral comm ica nex week. plus got 2 projects which we haven started at all.

then came friday which was yesterday, lol. wth. played soccer against bl. imo we had shown a fair bit of improvement. im sorry if i talked a little rudely to some of you guys. but thats how i behave on the pitch ;). although we lost 7-6, at least it wasnt a thrashing. i was only disappointed by the soft goals that we let in. maybe because im an advocate of solid defending with minimal errors.

this past week i watched a couple of movies on dvd and on the net. but the movie Into The Wild was a particularly powerful movie. Released in Sept 07, it is rated r-21 due to nudity and coarse language. I strongly recommend u guys to catch the movie.

Here's the synopsis
Based on a true story. After graduating from Emory University in 1992, top student and athlete Christopher McCandless abandoned his possessions, gave his entire $24,000savings account to charity. he decided to live the hippie lifestyle and so he hitchhiked across america, escaping from the rat race and materialistic society. he finally decided to head North, to alaska. Into the wilderness, literally living off the land with the only form of "entertainment" being his books and writing materials. A tragic twist will happen in the ending of the story when he finally came into realisation that

"Happiness is only real when shared." Super touching..

And there are lots of notable quotes from the movie.

Christopher McCandless: I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong... but to feel strong.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christopher McCandless: I'm going to paraphrase Thoreau here... rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christopher McCandless: Mr. Franz I think careers are a 20th century invention and I don't want one.

Directed by Sean Penn, it took him 10 years before he make the movie, as it took the McCandless some time before allowing it to be made into a film.
The book is written by Jon Krakauer.
