triumphant and moving on

hey you lazy readers... yeah, another post for this ever cool blog. xP
First of all, I've removed the youtube song on the side for your convenience. So do stop complaining to me about it yeah?
Anyway, about the last post. I triumphed in the malacca tourney that took place last week. How cool is that man! I bagged home rm500, that's my second tourney victory. I'm elated, more so the fact that I did it with two games to spare. So, I'm fairly pleased with the results and congrats to rama for finishing runner-up, he played well. I'm going into the WYSC on the 9-11 with a bang! watch out, i'm gonna come back with money this time. LoL
Put that aside.. I visited my cousin's house yesterday to have a look at her newborn son. We were also told to help in pitching in a number of names for the baby boy. It was rather hilarious though. You see, her husband is quite chinese educated so he doesn't speak much english, therefore his english accent isn't very good. So as we were discussing with my cousin about the name, the few names that made all of us laugh were Matthew. Why? Because her husband might not be able to pronounce it properly and say "thew" instead which in chinese means ( fu*k). So imagine calling your son, " fu*k, fu*k come here for a moment please". LOL !!
Another one was Ryan. That's because he might say "lion" instead. haha. There were a few more but I can't quite recall, so have fun with the two above. xP
Oh and for all you girls... 'Twilight' the movie was just released a few days ago. Like all the girls I know, I'm sure you've booked your tickets for it like two weeks ahead huh? anyway, I hope you guys enjoy it. Oopps, I mean girls.
For you guys instead, today's football fixtures are superb and mouth-watering. All Manchester United fans like me, prepare to celebrate a victory over Man City tonight. As for the Arsenal v Chelsea match, I wouldn't mind a draw of a win for Arsenal - just not a win for Chelsea.
Phew, this is tiring... I think I better go now. I'll post the next one asap yeah?

warming up

hey guys, I just realized that most of you with your standardized computer size can't see my post, or at least the latest one. I couldn't see the problem cos my or rather the family's computer is rather large, so I didnt really have that problem. I'll remove the youtube video and replace it with something smaller then. :)
Today's the day before I'm off to melaka for the scrabble tourney there. I hoping to do well there not only for the prize but also as a small morale boosting confidence ahead of this year's WYSC to be held in penang during the 9-11 december. Wish me luck yeah?
Oh and I'm having this CG party at my house this sunday, so pray that it all goes well yea?
Oh and by the way, if you watch the TV series "Reaper" and "90210" then you certainly would've met Jessica Stroup. She's Silver in 90210 and Cady in Reaper. I just wanna say...
MY GOD, SHE'S HOT !! and beautiful !!
She's broken into my top 10 most beautiful girls in the world list. Not that it's hard to be in this nonsensical list, all you need is a pretty face and nice body. " Did I just say body?".... anyway, if you haven't caught a glimpse of this diva, go catch the series 90210 or Reaper and you'll understand what I'm talking about.
Anyway getting very very late. Have to get up early tomorrow. night guys

done and dusted

nov 7, 10.45am finally exams are over !! but sad part is, that also spells the end of another year.. *snap* just like that. Really gotta start focusing on SPM next year now, no joke ! xP
Anyway, news from around the world...
Most significantly Obama being the new President of U.S. first black dude to hold the post. Yeah it's a historic moment but then again, it's happening in the U.S. Why are people here all so excited about it. Sure, it'll cause a drastic change in the world but hey ! there's enough commotion within the country, so look inwards first before you look outwards.
Urghhh, never did like talking 'bout politics. Moving on the football! Arsenal are gonna clash with Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium. Best catch the action live or you're gonna rue it. Not much happening with the other matches so I guess I'd wrap it up at that.
Celebrity world... 90210 was just released on ASTRO and phew! the whole cast are hot! girls I mean. dunno bout the guys, you rate them yourselves. Will look forward to tuning on to it next week. Oh and The Apperentice, you know the one with Donald Trump in it. For all you fans, looks like the boys team are just gonna keep on winning. haha x)
Okay, abit closer to reality now. Having a slight fever now *sucks*. Just wanna thank and appreciate all my classmates this year for everything and if I get relegated to the next class then oh well, I loved all the special moments we had together.
Gosh, the fever is taking over me. I think I'd better go sleep it off so that I'm afresh tommorrow. Good night then,
You're tuning into the 'Real World'

the end is near

it's november 4th today. Phew !! how fast was that. I've done everything that I have this year, scrabble tourneys, traveling, movie marathon, book muggings, football training, EPL action, exams and practically everything. I'll look back at this year on december 31 and I hope I won't regret anything. Do you ever get the feeling of regret when you look back at the things you've done? I mean not looking back on lifetime regrets, just during a period of time. Surely you have, no? sigh, it's about what you do about it after that. I have this saying and it really hit me, it says "What we are today is a result of our own past actions; Whatever we wish to be in the future depends on our present actions; Decide on how you have to act now.
"we are responsible for what we are, whatever we wish ourselves to be. We have the power to make ourselves."
What a quotation huh?.. anyway it's saved on my desktop so I see it every time I go on the computer and it reminds me of what I do every now and then. ahh, I hope it has an impact on you too.
Oh well, speaking of exams.. my finals is finishing this friday on november 7th and right after that I have a scrabble tourney on sunday. so gotta get choppin' already. Have got lots of events planned out during the school holidays so I'm really looking forward to it. So guys, if you're reading this take a breather and just reminisce on what you've done lately. haha I sound like some guru with no qualifications. xP
till next time
