BK chalet
BK class chalet was a fun filled 3days 2nights, its too fun filled that im too lazy too list down the things that we did. im sure u guys had fun too. sounds like a modified version of cheok hong's fav phrase, 'you have fun man!'. dutty yeah. BK is dope, that pretty much sums up the whole chalet.
Kallang Roar
Wall of text ahead. proceed with caution or just hit the close button.
we watched Kallang Roar the movie on Tuesday, was a very good movie apart from some very fake scenes but with a budget of less than $1mil you cant be expecting a hollywood like standard in remaking the games of the matches. they tried their best to emulate the goals, even the late Supermokh celebration jig.
4/5 movie.
however i really hope that there would be a sequel. probably potraying the 'Dream Team' that did the historic double in 1994, ironically that was the year when Singapore left the malaysia cup. it will make an interesting movie, a week before the 93/94 m league started, singapore's coach, ken warden, left the team. douglas moore who was then the technical director had to take over the team. he eventually led the lions to the double.
cant seem to find my abbas saad jersey.. although it would be too small to wear, i should have kept it for memories of the good old days when the die hard fans are really die hard fans of the lions. i also couldnt find the die hard fan tee with fandi's signature. abbas saad was my fav player back then. :(
those were the days when theres no live telecast of epl. back then there were only highlights of epl games on weekends, hosted by daryl david if i remember correctly. back then of 5 pages in the sports column on the new paper, 3 would be on local soccer and just a small portion on epl and the likes. no such thing as betting columns/tips what have you.
back then singapore was just a malaysia premier league and malaysia cup champions but the atmosphere was euphoric, now singapore is the king of asean football but the feeling isnt the same. sleague can never manage to scale to the heights of the good old malaysia cup days. sad case.
here's some video's from the glory days of singapore football.
Part 1 / 15 of the 1994 cup finals. Includes cool retro advertisements. Abbas scoring the hat-trick and fandi scored a goal beating Pahang 4-0. w00t! you can find the other parts of the match at you tube.
part 13 / 15. includes a very young aide iskandar making his debut in the malaysia cup as a late substitute and the final whistle.
THAT v. sundramoorthy goal! '93 against brunei.
the 1 hour Review of 94 double. part 1 / 5

the semestral exams finally over, hope that i dont have to take any supp papers and also hope that i don't have to repeat any modules cause i dint really studied for the exams.
so after not kicking a ball for quite some time we played soccer on saturday, was a fun kickabout session and we only stopped playing when it started raining. the thought of travelling to school on a saturday morning was rather dreadful, luckily zy called in time to go together.
going to collect nike+ race pack at the cannery tomorow morning, another dreadful trip all the way to clark quay... din train for the run, just hope i can finish it before the organisers remove the barricades. will be looking forward to the after event concert at padang.
class chalet next week. most probably i'll just stay for one night. i'll be homesick if stay any longer. gonna watch kallang roar the movie during the chalet, it had good reviews from the kind butties at hwz forum. so will be looking forward to the movie. dutty yeah!
results from week 2 of the epl had been a mixed bag, teams like spurs and arsenal dropped points against the likes of sunderland and fulham. and stoke city managed a win against aston villa when everyone expected aston villa to pummel stoke city after their convincing victory last weekend.
liverpool remembered istanbul with 2 goals in the last 10 min of the game against boro. with local born and bred scousers carragher and gerrard providing the equaliser and winner respectively. they are currently sitting at the top of the table for the time being. with chelsea being the only team capable of taking the spot if they win their game on sunday.
liverpool old boy, cisse scored sunderland's winner on his debut, wish him all the best and that he stay out of the injury list.

An Honest Mistake
Sing along people..
People They don't mean a thing to you They move right through you Just like your breath But sometimes I still think of you And I just wanted to Just wanted you to know My old friend... I swear I never meant for this I never meant...
Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake An honest mistake
Sometimes I forget I'm still awake I fuck up and say these things out loud
My old friend... I swear I never meant for this I never meant...
Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake An honest mistake
Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake Don't look at me that way It was an honest mistake An honest mistake [ An Honest Mistake Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com/ ]

played soccer with elks on national day, won 3-1. thought we should have kept a clean sheet. and against my predictions it rained during our match and well through the NDP parade. that was only my 2nd time playing at regent sec, the pitch going to be closed for upgrade to artificial turf soon.
also first time in years that i watched NDP live on tv at home. the olympics opening ceremony was way better than the NDP.
anyways Jose Sazalao has thrown in a challenge towards BK aka SFU, which i declined. but if you guys really wanna have a match against the elks, i can arrange it for you guys.
tonight will be the community shield clash between Manure and Pompey. ok match starting soon, pompey's attack of defoe and crouchie looks quite promising. epl starting next week. woot.

Happy 43rd Birthday
National Day songs.
anyone watched yesterday's olympic games opening ceremony, our flag bearer is a FT and she was dragging the national flag on the floor. i have nothing to say.
ever wondered why it never rains on national day? its because it is blessed by all the religions in singapore. or is it because we have weather-manipulating mutant on our side (reads: Storm). ok BS. but read on if you're interested. its kinda lame and random.
Cloud Seeding. It rained on thursday remember. In layman's term, lets say before an exam you will go to the toilet to relief yourself so you dont need to excuse yourself during the exam itself. ok bad analogy.

A special date that will occur once in a thousand years. nothing special for me as usual though. no school today, w00t!
went for prayers then headed to Singapore Expo, its been years since i've been to that ulu place. the last time i been there was like more than 5 years ago when nike organised a Scorpion K.O soccer competition. the one where eric cantona stands on top of the cage and throws in the ball advertisement.
ok, so i went there cause borders having a sale there. so the place was filled with books and dvds. browsed through and bought 3 books. didnt buy any dvds though, they were going cheap at $15 and the titles are quite recent.
the sale ends on sunday, so theres still time to check it out. luckily i went today cause it will be jam packed during weekends. was hoping they will be albums sold but nope. :(
next went to bugis topman, after 2 weeks of procrastinating finally went to topman. going to the bugis outlet was a wrong choice though, so many bengs and mats there. should have gone to the marina outlet. nvm, saw the short shorts sold there the price was outrageous 63bucks for so little cloth, i'd rather get their jeans. bought some stuffs and headed home.
end of my another loner shopping trip, now need to start studying for POM.
review of money not enough 2
was rated 1.5/5 by the local papers. i smell propa$%*$#. the movie wasnt powerful enough to evoke tears off me nor was it on par with The Dark Knight(duh..), but it isn't as bad as a 1.5/5 show. it is still watchable and i give it 2.6/5. the movie potrays a real situation faced by normal singaporeans and with the aging population of the nation increasing, the poor state of 'mother' is very real and is happening even now. the film also tries to raise awareness of MLM or multi level marketing. which often ends up with you getting cheated off your money. follow the rule of thumb that something is too good to be true, it probably is. these are the serious parts of the show that is peppered with jokes throughout the show. i though jack neo should focus on just one thing, this movie should be made as a tear jerker rather than trying a mish mash of comedy and sad story.
like his other movie, Homerun, which was inspired by the Iranian movie Children of Heaven. ok i admit i teared to these 2 movies but not money not enough 2. nuff said. so me using 2.5 packs of tissue was utter nonsense. lol.
Movie that i missed and recommend it to be watched, 10 Promises to My Dog.
blog song
changed my blog song to goodil, by the Stoned Revivals. One of the pioneers in local indie music scene. this song is the soundtrack to the local movie 12 storeys.
lets start with finally finishing all the projects, the last one being sharepoint which took me the whole of saturday morning to finish, ok except for the publishing part which i couldnt figure out. w00tw00t.
played soccer on friday although wasn't really in the mood to play with the stewpig flu bug pestering me. see la vin told u liao we can beat bj if we play street soccer. ok then met up with the lads to just chill out, ate dinner with fir at newton. the stingray chilli was so salty that me having my tastebuds malfunctioning due to flu could still taste its f-ing saltishness. dissapointing la. then we went off to orchard to meet up with the rest.
was supposed to play soccer with them on sat morning but was too lazy, so just slept and slept and slept. but the stupid flu still there. then finished the sharepoint and slept for an hour and get ready for elks match against the unpuntuals. was rather psyched up for the match as its been a while since i met up with the elks and played a game on the pitch with them.
so i got ready everything and made my way to the mrt and then zali called. the match been postponed to next sunday. well done la. went to eat breakfast and then went home. the rot is coming (you reading this zali) just like how KBFC rot into the abyss. deja vu, better do something man. serious. the rot is coming, or it already had began.
as expected watched x-files the movie last week, was rather mediocre show to me. it was as if i was watching a 2 hour tv show. if shud have been named the paedo psychic part 1 and the paedo psychic part 2. nothing powerful, just like a normal x-files tv show to me. dissapointing 2.75/5.
the verve will be coming back with a new album. will be looking forward to its release. these are the guys that came up with one the best songs ever written, bittersweet symphony although its originality had always been questioned, which is rather true though but heck, its a very nice song to me.
movies to watch, hmm maybe money no enough 2. its not exactly a comedy like its predecessor reviews seems to label it as a sad story with light jabs to the govt, it made through MDA cencorship though. reviews for mummy 3 had been crap, luckily i skipped that movie last friday. just trivial info the first money no enough was not directed by jack neo but was written by him though, but money no enough 2 is directed by him. shall catch it this week.
training for human race and ippt had been disrupted by stupid flu. im bugged.
chillout at mccafe lido before a change of view to spinelli heeren
short shorts?
and yeah congrats to uncle alvin with his newborn nephew evan. w00tw00t.
