And A Happy New Year.

Its the end of the year. Everything needs closing closing closing. And that means hectic hectic hectic. Ok I shall stop with echo echo echo. Pek chek-ness sets in a swarm. Really they just don't come solo or in pairs. In swarm. And then you don't really realize it when it hit. Its the aftermath that triggers the pain nerves.

Ah yes coming back to end of the year. I am trying very hard to resist switching off my phone (company policy not to) during the festive seasons. Heck. I had missed two dates because of that. Then they have to downgrade my computer. Yes downgrade you see it right. Then again, the amateur geek inside me still makes my computer looks super high tech compare to others (lansiness sets in). But that will be for another post.

So 2009 gonna be over. Hooray. I guess. Its been exciting and challenging year. Looking forward to 2010. No new year resolution too for this year. Just hoping for a smooth sail ahead.

Happy New Year. In advance.

Please Spare Us The Misery

I said it once. I said it twice. I had now said it a gazillion times. Please sack Benitez now. He has lost the plot. Now he is complaining about referee being bribed. Omgforgodsake. Admit that Liverpool play like shit lar. Who the hell put two idiotic uncreative midfielders and keep playing the ball back to the defender. TMD where can score?!! And Aquilani....wtf.....20 million to put him on the bench. Then somemore lost to a bottom club.












Sack! Sack! Sack!

Please faster find new manager. Find new owner also. And also please reassemble the team. And also please give more money. Bullocks.! Might as well disband the whole club and recreate a new one. Spare us the misery.

Update: At least Manu also loosing 3-0. Lightens me mood a lil bit.

White Collar

This should be up two centuries ago, but I was so hooked up with the series that I did not realize I haven't introduce it. Not until it was half-way through and currently on hiatus.

Ok so the overview. Con-man escapes prison with three months sentence left. Love sick puppy go find girlfriend. Got caught again. Make a deal with FBI dude. Helps him solve white collar crime. Ta-da.

So the what-I-like-part. The chemistry between the two protagonist. Neil Caffrey (Bomer) with his charm, street-smarts and skill versus the genius by-the-book crime fighter SA Peter Burke. Its amusing because it keeps me guessing the trust level of both thief and cop in their relationship. Added with some very quirky and awkward moments from each character, it added personality to a traditionally serious and dark theme of cops and thieves. Oh and I totally love the FBI's wife (Thiessen). Sounded wrong but.

As mentioned, series is on hiatus and the twist on the last scene of the 7th episode had me grabbed the screen screaming Oi don't give me such a suspend faster screen next episode puh-lease.

Conversation of the Day

In Hokkien...

Me: The Nepalese behind us speaks real smooth ang moh.
J: Kanasai....then I need to bring him to factory with me van....for 30 minutes.
Me: Can handle it?
J: (pondered for a few moment) I think I shall just put on English music and tell him to sing along.

Its hard to capture the moment and its almost lost in translation. But the above conversation really make my day.

Forbidden Fruit

It seems like it, when taking everything into account. The amount of discreetness needed could have been compared to Top Secret of CIA files, prior to me spilling out, albeit abstractly, in this blog of course.

It ain't hard for two souls to come together and share the endearment. What makes it hard is the antecedents and the consequences and the given circumstances. It happened way too fast for my dim-witted sense of logic and reasoning to process it. Probably they were gagged by the swift rapid slash of id-like ecstasy of a feeling.
















I felt the joy and delirium of it for the first time of me life. But sadly, it had to come under almost dangerous waters of a circumstance. The circumstance that the metaphoric title had just describe.

Because Of The Ankle

Its always sad to see good footballers go in such a cruel way. It seems to be the case for Dean Ashton. The ankle injury must have hurt a lot that it takes the hope out of a footballer to recover from it. I am still pretty shocked when he announced his retirement today, aged just 26.

























Certainly the way Ashton feels of his forced retirement.

My thoughts are with him and hope he can manage well with life after football.
