My BFF

Lynnette was asking me for jacket. then she made some confession about herself.

Why am i "emo-ing"

the only reason, i can think of, why i'm "emo-ing" is because i treat your words very seriously.
("you" is not the same person from the "superman tee" post)

sorry.

Smart advertising

i think this is advertisement done is rather smart.

the words "Can your 3 run on all-fours?" is actually making fun of the new Mazda 3. of course, Subaru would deny such claims.

previously, there was another such advertisement, also by Subaru, mocking the VW Golf. on the weekend the new Golf was launched, the words, similarly placed, said "Forget Golf this weekend, come see our WRX", or something like that.

she in a Superman tee

i don't think you remember.
i don't think you'll even be here.
but i told you before that i love seeing you in your superman tee.
i saw it again today. and i still stick to what i said before.




i love seeing you in your superman tee.

FA Cup Semi-finals: Everton vs Manchester United

in case you guys didn't know, Manchester United was knocked out of the FA Cup by Everton on Monday morning.

Sir Alex Ferguson took a gamble by putting most of his youngsters into the starting 11 for the Semi-finals clash. players like Welback, Gibson, twins Rafael and Fabio, and overnight superstar "Kiko" Macheda started for Manchester United. David Moyes, however, took no chances for his Everton side, and played his usual line-up.

Sir Alex's gamble was a price to pay as they were beaten 2-4 on penalties by Everton, with Tim Howard saving 2 shots from his former team.

after 120minutes of official play time and extra time, a goal-less draw took the clubs into penalties. Sir Alex chose experience, than position, as his penalty kickers starrs Berbatov, Ferdinand, Vidic and Anderson as the first 4. that decision, understandable because the veterans would be more calm and focused in situations like these rather than the youngsters, was also one of the deciding factors for the winners. Berbatov and Ferdinand both had their shot saved by former team mate, Howard.

after the match, Berbatov was heavily criticised by spectators around the world for his "tamed" kick. many said the shot was too "gentle", and expected a striker of that standards to be much better. his boss has however backed him up. reports here.

personal:
i feel that Sir Alex's move to put his youngsters in such an important match was controversial but important move. by doing so, they have gained much experience by playing a Premier League club of high standards. this is a boost for the club, as they may need to look for players to replace older players such as Scholes, Giggs and Neville. it's a short term, though "expensive" sacrifice but a long term investment.

i don't agree, though, to the selection of penalty kickers. Sir Alex should have continued using his youngsters for the penalties. i felt that the strikers and midfielders should have been the first 5, despite being inexperienced.

overall, the starting 11 of United proved to be able to withstand Everton's first team, which is a good sight for the the future of the current World Champions.

RPDB trip to Genting

alright, 20 of RPDB paddlers, of which 3 have graduated, went to Genting the week after MR500 - TO HAVE FUN!

we had a 22 or 23-seater bus to Genting, from Singapore, and a 21-seater back. the 21-seater bus, that is the SEX. it was just SPACIOUS! and we had our own mini screen TV. yes, each and every one of us.

anyway, it was great fun there. activities we did include: theme parks, SAFARI "DISCO", temple, arcade, 1RM per song Kbox, and many many more.

me, Sufi, Christo, Adrian and Qiplek went on the Space Shot like 4 times. it was GREAT!
*confession - the pimple on my ass burst after my first ride. (THAT'S ALL I'M GOING TO SAY)

Sufi, WenHui and WenJie got tricked into the Crazy Space Lab. it was a total waste of time, in which over 10 of us rushed for, from one end to the other of the theme park. the 3 of them came late, and we told them it was the greatest ride. three of them went in, six middle fingers came out. was it as good as we mentioned? you be the judge.

we made a whole lot of noise in many of the rides the the theme parks. we had the whole Euro Xpress to ourselves, and totally rocked First World Hotel!

alright, enough said. check out the pictures at Facebook! there's videos too!

My latest asset/ entertainment

i got my 80GB PS3(finally) a few weeks back. Aiman and Mai were there with me.

we went to Kallang Leisure Park, initially just to park my car. but i remembered that there was a game shop there. so checked out the price of the PS3. it had the cheapest price, well at least the cheapest i've seen, SGD590. but i didn't get it immediately. we went to Funan to check for other prices.

looked around and realised that Funan shops were selling it at quite high prices, compared to the one at Kallang Leisure Park. but we did find a shop that sold games at a lower price. so i got 3 games there - NBA2K9, Winning Eleven 2009, GTA IV.

we then went back to Kallang to get my PS3, then set off to my place to play it!

grapics are GREAT, and i'm having one heck of a time with the games.

P.S. get a PS3 instead of XBOX 360. =p
