finally had time to update my dusty blog.. (wall of text ahead) too many things happened within the space of a week. ok lets start last week was Dan's and Sir's birthday, went to the Naked Fish Shoppe at Ang Mo Kio Grassroot for dan's birthday, the food was ok and service was prompt. Food was served quite fast, finally had western food for lunch, breaking away from the increasingly boring food in school. wanted to go to Dallas Chicken and Ribs buffet for chong's birthday but he had something on so called it off.

then on saturday we (ray, vin, angtao) went to bishan stadium to watch sleague match, HUFC vs SGu23. atmosphere was rather boring unlike the SAF fans.. i tink the events aren't in the correct order. lol. before that we spent the whole day in the library, it was a saturday btw to complete our sharepoint presentation. hong wei korkor was damn power la, BD girls asked for his email address. w00ts!

then it was projects week, POM + Micro presentations = late nights + shagness. relieved that the 2 presentations are over. good job to my group mates. then finally last burst of fire on Oral Comm presentation. yet another saturday spent in school, played soccer in the morning followed by oral comm till evening. soccer was great, dan was on form and hardly put a foot wrong throughout. towards the end of the game, cheok hong showed his true colours by charging at full speed and crashing into me like a full grown wild**** with a sinister look on his face. ;). leaving me twisting and turning in pain :( .

then on monday, got back our spss and ica2 results for stats, and as expected failed my ica2. chong went to teach melvin to play poker and the lecture theatre became a gambling den for a while. before that zy had one of his happiest moment in his life i guess. ;). was procrastinating whether or not to go to the kallang stadium for the singapore brazil match, finally decided not to as there WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A LIVE TELECAST ON CHANNEL 5. bruff little chewren. reached home and my edmw butties said there was only delayed telecast at 1030 on tuesday. what a shame, the match was played in singapore but we had to rely on overseas sources to watch the live telecast (reads: online tv) . :(. and then there's the news of a pervert taking upskirt photos of girls at the south canteen. so those wearing skirt pls take note.

then came today presented our oral comm at 3, came to skool earlier for last minute touchups, followed by muay thai training till 9. w00t! 32 more days.

Long time Liverpool Fan, Robbie Keane, is the latest addition to Liverpool's strikeforce, filling the void left by Crouchie. coming at a cost of €20.8m for a tried and tested striker in the premership who is at his prime age for a striker is a rather safe buy by benitez. im glad alonso is staying at anfield.

'stumbled upon' a leaked trailer for X-men the origins. coolness la, Gambit, Deadpool Emma Frost. w00ts! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-Men_Origins:_Wolverine lazy to create link, go and copy paste. lol.

gonna try catch x-files this week. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE. ahh.. old school sia.

EPL starting soon, lets all play fantasy football. I created a league go and join. Don't say i never jio hor.

This week had been a rush. Gonna burn out soon. 39 more days. woot!

Kallang Roar the Movie official trailers

Was in school for almost the entire Saturday. No life sia saturday also go school. lol. Reached school at 1030 at met alvin korkor and hongwei at the library before ch, san and ray joined us. Did not really start doing till 1pm and just idled.

Finally finished my sharepoint webpage at 3pm and crapped in the library as we killed time before meeting up with Ang Tao. hw damn pro la, 4 girls from BD asked for his help to do sharepoint, then even asked for his msn. wootwoot.

Had dinner at junction8, they wanted dinner at cafe cartel but i wasn't a big fan of pork ribs so we settled for kfc. The new shrimp/prawn nuggets not bad. After that went to the arcade which seemed to be part of our routine when we meet up. Very the beng-ish, Ang Tao is Bishi Bashi pro.

Then walked to bishan stadium for sleague match. Home united vs young lions, their fans quite boring, unlike SAFFC fans. Boring match ended in 1-0 win for home united. National Team coach, Raddy was in the stands to watch the match. And Ang Tao spotted a pack of cigarettes in his hand, lol.

I think the registration for the Nike+ Human Race is closed, cant seem to get into the link. I think they have reached their quota of 10,000 participants. Thats a lot of people, i think the running route will be packed.

WHY SO SERIOUS?! LET ME PUT A SMILE ON THAT FACE.

It might be a Batman movie, but unlike Batman Begins where the story revolves mainly around Bruce Wayne or Batman, TDK got other characters involved heavily into the storyline. Namely Lt. Gordon(Gary Oldman), Harvey Dent(Aaron Eckhart) and Joker(Heath Ledger). Great performance by the heavyweight cast. I won't post any spoiler, definite must watch. Reviews for the movie had been encouraging at rottentomatoes and imdb, scoring 9+ ratings. Definitely not your typical superhero movie with just all the actions stuff, this is an intelligently written movie, great storyline to accompany the actions.

Heath Ledger's potrayal of the Joker is probably the best ever villain on screen. He definitely deserved a post-humous oscars for his work. RIP.

9.4/10 - Do yourself a favour and watch the movie, but take note that the movie is 152mins long.

[Somebody pass Batman some Strepsils]





Skipped school today, went for prayers and then watched The Dark Knight. Saw the trailer for Kallang Roar the Movie, kinda good, based on true story. Its about local football scene back in the Malaysia Cup days. Smells retro.

For more details

AFA ica was not as bad as expected taking into consideration the previous disastrous Stats ica. Hopefully able to scrape through. Failed HTML ica by .5 marks, first failed test, hope it doesnt set a trend. signed up for the run already, will be joined by alvin and ikhsan and probably malcolm and ray. Great Spy Experiment will be playing for the event at padang. w00t! they are great live, last caught them at zoukout 07. local music ftw! american band, boys like girls will be performing for the run too.
Movie to catch will be The Dark Knight, much hyped "anticipated superhero movie", shall see if it will supercede the previous movie Batman Begins. Shall watch with minimal expectation to avoid disappointment.

Random poor quality photos from my phone.

Last week's class outing. Went to watch Hancock. Before that, Sir Power Pork and his sidekick Kucing "Makan Ayam Pisang" Mel, played a game where they have to shoot bunny hopping fugitives.




Went to Martin Road near MS Road to HongWei's workplace for POM project. After that the guys went to queue for MOS party later that night.




Realised that it was a stupid idea to wait in the queue for another 6 hours the guys decided to walk around. Walked to Fort Canning Park and found Ikhsan queueing up for Singfest.




ok la. one last pic. ignore my crap.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

after pom project when to kk hospital to visit my nephew. then went to watch super reds vs saffc at yishun stadium with ang tao and alvin. my theory that yishun people are crazy stands.
my first experience with the crazy bunch was a few years back. it was after a soccer match and we went to mac at NP for lunch. while eating, all of a sudden a bunch of kids went to my table and ate my fries.! WTF right. seriously weird place.
then at yishun stadium, although the match was quite boring but we were entertained by colorful characters that were super funny. lmao. noticed that there are two groups of people who watches soccer live in SG. one is the die hard soccer fans (reads: ki siao) the other is the die hard punters who will hurl vulgarities at the players at the end of the match or nearing the end of the match if he lost his bets. lmao.

last weekend was rather uneventful.. did nothing.. watched tv and dvd all day + dota.. din even join krados for soccer.. did last minute revision for stats ica on sunday night, catch some shuteye and reached class an hour earlier and did some more revision.. stats ica was wtfomgbbqgg.. the questions were f up tricky..

Let x be the score for stats ica 2.

P(x > 1) = 0



and as always there will be liverpool news in my post. barry saga is getting boring, come on la 18m for barry? zzz.

galatasaray is interested in charles itandje, perfect! sell him for all i care and get some money in the transfer kitty. they are getting a brazilian gk in 25 yr old Palmeiras goalkeeper Diego Cavalieri as reina's understudy. reina won the golden glove three times, and he did it last season with agger injured most of the season.
john arne riise sold to juve, gonna miss his rocket powered left legged shots. and also his untimely own goal that cost us our 3rd consecutive champs league final . Degen and Dossena were gotten to bolster the defense, with finnan probably being sold off to aston villa as part of the deal to get barry. kewell went off on free transfer, wish him all the best, really wasted talent.
crouchie leaves for portsmouth for 11m, anfield gonna miss his awkward style and robot dance celebrations. if rumours are true, long time liverpool fan robbie keane might be heading to anfield as crouchies replacement.. woohoo!

indie - In popular music, independent music, often abbreviated as indie, is a term used to describe independence from major commercial record labels and an autonomous, do-it-yourself approach to recording and publishing.


ok ang tao and alvin can make fun if you want.

wth la.. death cab for cutie tickets like sold out alredi sia.. :( .. so fast sia.. didn't know they have a huge fanbase here.. dammit.. i missed Muse and Oasis concerts when they came here last year. i was up in the mountains in a foreign land when my fav bands came here. lol. now im gonna miss death cab for cutie. haiz.

watched Hancock yesterday with the class. not a bad movie but nothing to shout about too. i almost dozed off at some parts of the movie, dunnoe whether its because i was tired or the movie was just too boring. Its a superhero movie btw. i guess that sum it all up.

din't join the class for Ray's farewell dinner. Sorry Alvin and Angtao and Ray and the rest too.

:(

August sucks la, there's Singfest at Fort Canning and Death Cab for Cutie is coming to perform at the Esplanade Theatre on the 28th and August is when the exams are. Travis and Alicia Keys are among the artists coming down for Singfest but i think i shall skip Singfest though. And yeah still haven done the projects... GG. Oh ya another good news is that Diablo III is officially announced by Blizzard. Bad news is, it may take more than a year to be fully developed, look at starcraft II as an example. Whats wrong with the servers tonight, HWZ forums keep saying server busy and Imeem webbie also not loading. sian..




the answer for the earlier question is none other than Liverpool. lol. Reina, Arbeloa, Alonso and Torres. w00t. 40 more days before EPL resumes...
