19 and running...

It was 29 Novemeber, 1987. A young boy was celebrating his 14th birthday with his family, only to learn he has a surprise guest. It prove to be the turning point of his life, when he signed that application form. The guest was non-other than Sir Alex Ferguson.

4 years later, he scored his first goal for Manchester United. The goal, was against Manchester City.

The Premier League was born on 1992, and since that day, the Welsh boy never looked back when it comes to scoring goals. Magnificent goals. A great goalscorer and also a scorer of great goals.

A quote from Manchester United legend, Steve Bruce.

"...When Ryan ran, he ran like the wind. You couldn't hear him he was that light on his feet. He had that natural body swerve, that way with a ball only the great players have got. No disrespect to [David] Beckham and Scholesy, but he's the only one who was always going to be a superstar."

Then the infamous quote from the manager himself, Sir Alex Ferguson.

"I remember the first time I saw him. He was 13 and he floated across the ground like a cocker spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind."

On that famous day of 21st May 2008, he broke Sir Bobby Charlton's record of most appearance in the Red's shirt. To make the most of that historic day, he helped the Red Devils to clinch their 3rd Champions League title, 10 years after the historic 2-1 victory in Barcelona, 1999.

Day after day past, he now has make 840 appearances and scored 156 goals through his career until today. The Welsh Wizard also made a record of scoring in each and every Premier League season since the inclusion on 1992.

19 seasons and running, the name Ryan Giggs is synonym to what Manchester United is today. Legendary...

Inception

Inception. A noun, and referring to Collins English Dictionary, it means the beginning, as of a project or undertaking.

The inception of war, the inception of a story... The inception of a dream.

Dream. Speaking of dream, have you felt that sometimes, your idea came from your dream?

If you have felt it, then you probably understand about Christopher Nolan's latest blockbuster movie, Inception.

Ladies and gentlemen, the idea of inception is creating the beginning of something, like an idea.

The idea is like a seed, planted in one's mind and it'll grew by itself, knowing or unknowingly by the person. It is so complex, so random and you might actually felt that, the idea perhaps came from out of no where.

It does have a source. A very unexpected source. Your dream.

Yes, the dream. The very simplest source of projecting the idea, and it makes you wonder when you woke up from a dream, you might have that 'something' you wished to share or tell people about it. People would be awed by the idea you received, and they might asked you this kind of question;

"Where did you got the idea?"

And your answer probably;

"It's from my dream."

They might laughed, left in questions or maybe scratching their heads trying to believe of what you just said. My advice? Don't mind them.

Little do you know, but while we were in sleep, our mind still working, processing the supposed idea, and generates new idea from it. As I said before, (idea) like a seed, grew by itself and helped by the aid of the memory we might have or simply, 'someone just put that in my head'.

The mind processes the information gain through experience (memories) and that helps the person to gain new idea. Of course, the mind somehow wasn't used full of it's capacity, or perhaps, won't. But, when the idea was planted or created, that's when the brain starts to move.

For an example, I had an assignment to be done. I had to make a lot of research and reads references which are required in order to finish the task. I work for it for 4 hours, and at night, I go to sleep. While I am sleeping, the work I did earlier will be revised back again by my mind, which then, when I wake up, I may have the solution flashes right in front of my eyes.

Unlike the movie, Leonardo and co. acted as the 'thing' who are planting 'ideas' or, back then, 'steal' the idea. It was said, the USA military used this dream training to improve their aiming, hand-to-hand combat and whatsoever on. Well, the practice was modernized and presented in the movie.

All what I have to say is, Inception will likely be my favourite movie of all time, along with Gladiator, Pirates of Carribean, The Dark Knight, and so on. I really enjoyed watching it and can't wait to have the movie in DVD or by downloading it.

Well. I recommend all of you to watch this masterpiece. It is really worthy, and enjoyable experience too. I wanted to look at your face after the show. Two of my friends already went speechless with that movie.

Until then. Have a nice day people, and...

Sweet dreams.

New phone~

Today, I'm gonna buy me a new phone. Not the one that is fancy, but one that is OK for me to use.

I mean, for me, phone are meant to use as a communication tool, whereas it is used for making calls, receiving calls, send text messages and receive messages too. That's the fundamental of a phone.

The other function are just accessories, so I don't bother much. I understand, it's all for convenience, but I'm happy enough to have a simple phone.

That's all folks. Gonna buy me a new phone~ Toodles! :)

My Story

Let me share a story about me being the only daughter, and the last child of my family, I treated like a most valuable gem a person can ever had.

My father loved me. He is a great man. He taught me the basis of this sorcery. Even how strict he was, he always has a soft spot for me. I realized, that he scolded me for a reason. It is because he loves me so much. Back in my homeland, he is the town's leader and everyone respected him. His wizardry was also magnificent. I once saw his performance and it is truly mesmerizing. Someday, I want to be like him. No, I want to be better than him.

My mother was not a sorcerer. She is a mere mortal but did have some practices under father's guidance on sorcery. Even so, it did not cross my mind how my mother even gets to married with my father. Unfortunately, she did not live with us after she gave a birth of me. She moved out and lived with the other mortals, in a place where today I have to live in. Until now, I have no known her whereabouts but I did keep an address, which would lead me to her. However, the note stated that I might only meet her, 'when the time comes'.

Before there was me, there is Joshua. My only brother and the first person I care most other than my father. I do not know how to explain the feelings I share with him. He would be more than just a brother to me, perhaps. I do not know. If my father was not around, he took over father's role to teach me. Father first taught him the basis and eventually let him learn the secret of this sorcery. It was father's own wish to let Joshua to take over him in every single aspect. Father entrusted him with all of his heart and always backed Joshua to perfecting his skills.

In addition, Joshua finally relinquished father's dream and he was very proud. However, Joshua was not happy, because he realized, he will not be able to spend some time with me. I was seven back then, but I then realized what did he meant.

Joshua became the 45th village leader and his rank surpasses every each of the town's previous leaders. Just at the tender age of 23, he mastered all the spells in the book and completed his pilgrimage thus, he became highly ranked wizard.

Somehow, I was criticized by the town folks soon after. Despite having a brother that is truly skilful and have all the ingredients to be a leader, I am nowhere near to his level. Even I was eleven; I have yet to master a spell. To be honest, I sucked. The only thing I capable to perform is manipulating the element of fire, because that is what my father only taught me.

Joshua became upset and disappointed to let me be criticised by the folks and warned the people not to say a word to me. Moreover, on that moment, his credibility to lead the group started to crumble down. He refused to marry any of town's maiden because his thoughts they are unequal to him. He ought to teach the youngsters and wanted to build a witchcraft school within the town by the elders somewhat denied his wish, for an excuse of being selfish and obsolete. The idea that stated thought obsolete by the elders' sparked rage towards Joshua and soon, he lost it.

If I could remember it correctly, it was my thirteenth birthday when Joshua began to enslave those who turn their backs to him. He has fed up for being nice and tolerate to the people. The elders feared his action and they tried to dispel him, but no avail. Joshua proven to be hundreds of times stronger and the elders were defeated and left to meet their demise.

Joshua began to have the hunger for power, as he set his sight to start building his own empire. The town was then for me to control, but it's me who feel his wrath first hand. I tried to convince him to stop ruling with iron fist, but did not listen to me. He began to take over towns after towns, city and then the rest of the kingdom. He ruled the country, and gains all the powers he needs, the wealth he wants and all the wisdom he can obtain.

It was sad. My thirteenth year of living was the moment where Joshua completely ignored me. After all the feelings I share with him, it all gone.

Our father, who survived Joshua's initial assault on our town, made an unholy pack with the demon clan, who would only be the one who can stop Joshua. The demon agreed to help us, but the stipulation was, not what my father had in mind. My father totally disgusted to learn about the stipulation but he had no choice. When I asked him about the stipulation, it was;

"It'll be he's bloodline to stop him..." To make it specify, father explained that he had to kill him. I was furious, disbelieved and confused. I locked myself for days; hoping father will not have to kill Joshua.

In the end, my father confronted Joshua for the first and perhaps, for the last time.

Work + Study = Fun

Hi guys.

Some say, one who's working and studying at the same time, will have less time for fun. Technically, it's which kind of fun, do you meant by? As for me, both are fun.

I'm working under a company called APPCO Group, and in the mean time, studying for the 4th semester in OUM (Open University Malaysia). Both are tiring, but I'm enjoying it, no matter what.

For RM 50 per sales I can make, I'd get like RM 200 at least, per week. Seriously, scoring 4 sales aren't that hard...

As for the studies, I need to use the empty slots available in my very own schedule, making good use of all of my time.

It's difficult, but it's possible. :)

May 12, 2010

All's well end's well?


2009/2010 season of Barclay's Premier League has finally over, and what a season we just experienced, eh?

With Chelsea won the title for the forth time in their history, and their last was on 2005/2006 season. Jose Mourinho was still the 'Special One' back then, but now The Blues have a new hero.

Carlo Ancelloti, and congrats to them.

Okay people, I'm not gonna talk about Chelsea after this, until the next season starts. Today, I'd like to give out what I think about Manchester United this season.

First of all, I'd love to admit that whether there's Cristiano (Ronaldo) or not, Manchester United can still play at their very best (and worse) in every matches they had, this season. My best Manchester United game for this season was when we beat AC Milan, home and away! (And Scholes scored what is... I describe, a WEIRD goal!) Highlights for the games: Away/ Home (Sorry for the audio.. But I found the non-english exciting! xD)

However, there is the lowest part for the Red Devils this season and the award goes to... Our defeat to Burnley! No comments about it and NO HIGHLIGHTS! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Okay nao~ Let's see my best player of the season!

There are three candidates, and they are...

1) Wayne Rooney
2) Nani
3) Patrice Evra

Okay, I know I seldom fancy a defender to win my heart, but Pat somewhat is nearby there. His mobility, running up and down in the left flank of the attack or defense this season was terrific. If he was born playing with both of his feet, I bet he'd scored goals this season, seriously.

Then there's Nani, who, at the start of the campaign, was put under such pressure in order to fill that 'long-gone' Portuguese superstar's boot and boy, doesn't he started rather awful? However, I learn that his down-in-form was caused by the injury he had thorough the 1st half of the season. After some treatment done on him, the Nani showed his true color. Goals after goals, assists after assists, Nani too opted me to pick him as my best player of the season.

However, what Pat and Nani don't have, is that scoring mentality which usually and occasionally grew within a player who play in a striker role. Therefore, the player who send the ball into the net as many as he/she likes, are what they call, a striker. Wayne Rooney, PFA Player of the Year, Football's Writer Player of the Year, Fan Player of the Year, and of course.. My Best Player of The Year too. Congratulation Roon!

When there's up, there's down. Candidates for my Worse Player of The Season are...

1) Rafael Da Silva
2) Anderson
3) Dimitar Berbatov (winning by default)

Seriously, I am bit upset for Berbatov, who I looked promising ever since Manchester United bought him for 30m Pounds sterling... Like, wtfh is Berba doing this season? And how he could miss a sitter in that game against Sunderland. I am not talking about one, but three tries he had, and none he scored. It may be a bad season for the Bulgarian, and I am hoping he'd do something for next season. It'd make me even more upset to see him leave as well. Sigh...

Then there's Anderson, who.. I was like, "where the fuck is he?" in the whole season? Knee injury? Really? Last time I heard he got into trouble by awol-ing to Brazil, and not coming for training. Really?

Rafael... Okay. He's still young, and of course he's immature, but red cards have been with him like, ever since he started to play in the Red's shirt. I try not to blame him for our lose against Bayern Munich in the Quarter-Finals, but I really have no choice. Referring bias? Rafael should be more mature and maintain his composure. I hope Gary could teach him one or two about it, playing in the big stage while maintaining your composure, focus and, reasonable tenacity. Ha ha... "reasonable tenacity?" Great job there Khal... So, Rafael won me the "Worse Player of The Season!"

Goal of the season has to be Darren Fletcher against Everton in a home game. Here's the clip.

Okay, so the overall perfromance wasn't that bad. There's no Carlos Tevez and Cristiano Ronaldo so it's like, lacking or missing a hard-working and talented footballers in a same time, but we managed.

High hopes for:

Antonio Valencia
Darren Gibson
Johnny Evans
Federico Macheda
Danny Welbeck
Gabriel Obertan, and lastly;
Michael Owen

Come on you Reds! Glory glory Man Utd!

April 25, 2010

Nani is not your (Average) Ronaldo.


If you think he just your average guy, think again. The 'new-born' Nani gave us what we needed most. Victory.

The Portuguese winger's career in 2010 wasn't a bright start, and his last goal for the club in the Premiership was the free-kick scored against Wigan, at the beginning of the season.

Thorough then, he was plagued with injuries and off-form performance, but since his return form the latest injury, his form was simply magnificent.

He was only now 23 years of age, but Ryan Giggs quoted, "With ten minutes to go and to be one-on-one with the goalkeeper, to chip it over him like that shows great confidence. But he’s the talent he has throughout the season. We were all pleased to see it go in, and he deserved it."

Notes taken, he's not Ronaldo. He's Nani.

Remember the name, ladies and gentlemen. There's more to come from this exciting and emerging star of Old Trafford.

April 17, 2010

Bring it on!


That would be what this fella in the pic might be yelling at the London's Blues.
Heading to the match, I could see Man Utd slipped out from the title chase, as Man City was running riot, unlike Man Utd who suffered a torrid month of April so far.

Until today...
A last gasp header by Man Utd's own Paul Scholes, lit up the hope for Man Utd's title chasing ambition as the victory pulled them close to only a point behind Chelsea, who will found themselves facing a much delighted Tottenham Hotspurs, fresh from their nail biting win against another (famous) London club, and also the title contender, Arsenal.

Yesh, my friend. There's still hope for Man Utd, but they asking for Chelsea to slip up a little bit. I know Man Utd's not that kind of team who they wished for help form other rival clubs, but... I'm pretty sure Sir Alex Ferguson himself wished the team to get as much luck and help from others. (Prayers anyone...?)
But, tonight's win was utter.. Dramatic. Paul Scholes headed home at the very last moments of the game was pure beautiful for me, and to make things better, it's another Manchester derby victory.
Imposing figure such as Tevez and Adebayor could not make their break even though Man Utd simply did gave them several of chances, but they didn't converted every chances they could get. The best might probably fall for Tevez, who, his wonderful free-kick just outside form the box was well saved and well held by Edwin van Der Sar. If it's in, Man utd had to crawl for at least the equalizer...

All's well end's well for us tonight. I wish Man Utd a best of luck and, may the best team wins. :) Till then~
p/s: Facts: That was Paul Scholes' 149 goals in Man Utd's shirt. His first goal was back in 1994.

So Near yet So Far


So near yet so far, that's how Man Utd season so far.

The exit from Champion's League was a great dismissal, and I felt that this lose truly wrapped this season's mission.

But, I don't want to complain. The best team won and sadly it wasn't Man Utd.

Although, I'm proud to see them last night. The things how the team shaking off this season was something inspiring and I see lot's of team work more than last season.

Wayne Rooney, Nani, Park Ji-Sung, and the whole team mesmerized me. The signing of Michael Owen was a bit surprising but to be fair, he's been something that Man Utd missing lately.

Last night's game was pretty much of what I'd love to say; "That's football".

Good luck Man Utd. At least, win this season's Premiership.

May God bless you.

p/s: Tough away games coming....

So, I might not gonna be online frequently.

I'm so sorry for this unfortunate news.

A Bridge to Far?

If you were mentioning about Tiger Wood's womanizing the women story kind of well expected (Thank you George Carlin) you would've never guessed the rift between the now and the former Chelsea players were due to a scandal.

The catch phrase would be; "I slept with your ex".

Some of us may not care anymore what are they (our ex) might do, but not Wayne Bridge. The Manchester City's fullback who is now living with the ex's children, and he loves them so much.

However, what did John Terry (his "best friend", his former "team mates", his "family", his "colleague", his "international teammate", his "to name but a few…") did? He slept with Wayne's ex.

To be honest, it sucks when you have this affair, especially when you are an established sportsman and a (not England) courageous leader (cough).

He has been the England and Chelsea heat ever since he first kicked the ball under the Blue's shirt. He won numerous of applaud and tons of appreciation through the years, but when this happened, it is like the end for John Terry and his lustrous career (his penalty missed during the Champion's League final against Man Utd will always be remembered).

First, his dad accused of dealing drugs. Then it is his mother, stealing in a supermarket. Today, the parents' beloved son went sleeping with someone's (ex) girlfriend. What's next in store for the Terry's? Paul sent to jail for swearing?

Alright. That's just the interface. Maybe too much detail would make John Terry turned from 'British Best Daddy' to 'Manchester Hated Scumbag'.

I watched the match, and yes my attention was on Wayne and the Chelsea captain, especially when it's a set piece or anything that would made them came into a contact.

Speaking of contact, if I'm not mistaken Mr. Bridge didn't made any eye contact to his "friend" thorough the match. Surprise? I don't think so.

Since the start of the match, I've noticed something sparking. The Captains of both teams had to lead their team to the field and then they shake hands. Since John Terry's the first man who the Man City's players would shook hands, guess where did Wayne Bridge was in the line?

He's the last person (if it's not for Carlos Tevez).

So the players shake hands, and all were pumped up for the match.

Oh, do you remember Patrick Vieira vs Roy Keane dated back in 2005? When Vieira was shaking hands with the Man utd players, the early victim that caused the bust up, Gary Neville did this "glare" and shook his hand hard, which really pumped the emotions up. Here's the vid. Click here.

However, what did Wayne Bridge does?

Yeah. He's either; "Oh? I don't know John was there..." or "..." over JT. As far as you would concern, snubbing a handshake is very rude. However, in this case, would this be justice for Bridge?

Who knows, but a drubbing defeat of Chelsea says it all.

What kind of dramas will be unfolded upon this very exciting season of the Premier League...?


No one knows.




Regards,

Khal


p/s: The whole scandal truly disturb the image of John Terry. I really like to see Chelsea go down, but not like this.

Sleeping...


Sleeping.

I know it's essential, but sometimes, people like me tend to do something else than sleep.

My excuse was; "Sleeping are for wimps." That is what I said, and what I've been listening to from people around me (colleagues).

But, as I do such, I lose the excitement of sleeping.

So I asked myself, when was the last time I had a very good sleep?

None thorough the month, but there's one, in January. It was a 6 hours (or more) sleep, and when I woke up, I felt pretty fresh and raring to go for the day.

Since then, all of my sleep was less than 2 hours.

From lack of sleep I started to have this kind of fatigue and a terribly sense of rational. It once occurred to me during this month where I almost pay the penalty for lack in sleep.

I end up sleeping during a lecture and I was in the front row.

I never thought about going to sleep during the course. Honestly. I was reading the module of my subject and I started to slouching and rested my head on the module. My eyes kept on moving and my hands also were still moving and took down the notes told by the lecture in front of me.

However, after a while, the words I see began to blur and when I opened my eyes later, the class was over.

My lecture was the first to point out that I was sleeping during the last 30 minutes of the class. Gladly I didn't got scolded by it but to be honest, I kind off upset my lecturer.

He also noticed how tired I was since I entered the class, therefor he may anticipated of my intention of going to sleep. I really didn't meant to sleep, but I guess the fatigue was way off me and my whole body responded. It shuts down by itself.

So, from that moment, I tried to get more sleeping hours than usual. 4 hours are the minimum I could reach for the past few weeks and I began to get some freshness every morning I woke up from the sleep.

Yeah. Sleep is important. It's not only relax your body but also conserve your mind. Like a 'sleep mode' of a personal computer, the whole mind still revolving around and if lucky, created a nice dream for you, based on your imagination and experiences you faced the whole day.

The mind was resting yet continuing it's task as well as our whole system in the body. Blood flows accordingly to the mood and the nerves, muscles, aches will be put into rest while we are sleeping.

Well, I wish that all of you my friends, won't repeat the same mistake as I am. I know the night life is nice and fun, but sometimes we have to pass the fun for our self's benefit. Try be considerable and honest to yourself first than others. Maybe I'd still stay awake for a whole night someday but I'd love to have some extra hours of sleep due to it. So it's like making a deal of your own self (which I found it kind off fun).

I guess that's all I have to say. Pretty sure I'd try to sleep early tonight, and trying to wake up fresh as well. I hope my friends here will enjoy their sleep too tonight. Until then.

Assalamualaikum and have a nice day.

Love,
Khal

February 21, 2010

Cheer Up :)

Assalamualaikum, and good day people.


Cheer up Man Utd fans, it's not like the whole world crumble yet.

Last night's match against Everton predicted to be a competition. David Moyes' side are in good form and I'm not surprised to see Man Utd been defeated like such. (Well... The score line did surprised me!!!)

Let's recap the whole.

Everton who lost both of their influential players, Tim Cahill (Injury) and Marouine Fellaini (Out for the whole season) starts the high-profile match in a 4-5-1 formation, and let alone the French striker Louis Saha in front (LOVE YOU SAHA!!! REDS FOREVER!). Leon Osman, Stephen Piennar and Mikel Arteta was put in the midfield while the Russian hit man Bilyaletdinov and American Landon Donovan operates the flanks. Ex-Reds, Phil Neville captained the side and operates along with Johnny Heitinga, Sylvian Distin and Leighton Baines at the back. Another former Reds Tim Howard is in between the sticks.

Man Utd who just won a great match in San Siro on Tuesday, had Nemanja Vidic in the squad, but only put in the bench. They started with a 4-4-2 formation. Wayne Rooney and Dimitar Berbatov collaborated up while Michael Carrick and Darren Fletcher are in the midfield. Since Nani was suspended for a three match ban (Serving his first match ban) Ecuadorian Antonio Valencia deputized the right flank while ever-loving Korean player Ji-Sung Park in the left. Captain Gary Neville again called up along with Johnny Evans, Wes Brown and Patrice Evra. Edwin Van Der Sar is in goal.

Heading to the match, Man Utd had never lost in Goodison since 2005, and for the record, the Merseyside Blue has only beaten Man Utd two times. So the prospect of winning here is predictable. However, after Everton pulling the strings of fine performance and even Man City and Chelsea were defeated here, the Blues would likely to make a great victory against Man Utd.

Refereeing for the match is the 2010 World Cup official, Mr. Howard Webb.

The match started brightly for Man Utd who scored for the Reds within 16 minutes of play. Rooney picked up Antonio Valencia at right and he crossed a low pass into the box. The ball was ricochet against a defender, and the ball end up at Berbatov's fright foot. The Bulgarian hit man quickly balanced himself to hit the ball instantly for the opener.

However, 3 minutes later, A mistake by United's defense lead up an equalizer for Everton. A long ball from the back was for Louis Saha. Young Johnny Evans anticipated the ball but the challenge by the French striker was fair. Bilyaletdinov picked up the ball from his side and ran into the box before shoots a screamer, which Edwin Van Der Sar had not budged. Replays show how the challenge on Johnny Evans was fair and Bilyaletdinov used Brown's body as a shield from Edwin's view.

The half time ended too soon. The pundits began to put their money in for the Blues, which shows their true nature. They are the team who beats Manchester City and Chelsea in this very turf and they are will likely to repeat the achievement against Manchester United.

As the second half on the way and sadly it turned up to be a goalless as the clock reached an hour.

However, substitute Dan Gosling finally put his team ahead after a fine work from the Everton's African player Stephen Piennar. Gary Neville left out by the African's pace and he immediately centred the ball for his teammates to scrap the pieces. Louis Saha missed the chance to hit it but luckily Gosling's there.

The Blues were not finished there yet! They then introduced Jack Rodwell. Ok, here's the stuff.


Jack Rodwell has been in the eyes of Man Utd which is to be, their next signing. The young Blues player puts an exclamation point for Everton's third goal during the dying time of the match.

Picking up the pieces, Jack rain through the defense and even Evans (He terribly poor for the whole game) looked like a dunce back there. Fast and Furious, Jack hits with his right and the ball slides through Edwin and thus the celebration explodes the whole Goodison Park. Of course, he got booked for taking of his shirt....

Alright, so in conclusion, Everton won by three goals to one, and another great win for Everton; and also, another high-profile lose for Man Utd.

Both managers' shakes hand and Sir Alex Ferguson congratulated his S

cottish counterpart, and truly adimits the match was for Everton, since they hit the equaliser.

Here's some from SAF (Taken from manutd.com.)

"We were well beaten; it's as simple as that. Maybe we left something in Milan, there certainly looked to be a lot of tiredness in the team. But we're going for a championship and we expect Manchester United to respond to the importance of the game. The players had all been bouncing in the week, but there's a small possibility that we left something in Milan. Certainly, we looked really tired. The real effect came in the second half, we were second best to everything. We started the game well enough, but you don't want to lose a goal so quickly after taking the lead, and Everton's goal galvanised them and gave them som

e incentive. In the second half they were the better team, it's as simple as that".

However, a positive comments about the prospect of Man Utd retain the title was again been said by the manager.

"I'm disappointed, and of course the players are disappointed. They play for Manchester United and don't like losing. We've been doing that [responding] for a long time, so I don't expect a problem that way. It's a bad result for us at this time of the year. You can't afford results like that. We hope others drop points, and that's the way the league has been this season. Hopefully it turns out right again, but I don't think we'll panic."

As for Everton's Manager, his interview was a mix of fun yet positiv

e or positive yet fun, or... Whatever... (LOL and quotes taken from eurosports.yahoo.com)

"We can start looking upwards a bit more than downwards. This was always going to be a tricky month and we have started it pretty well. It was a great result and you don't beat the big teams that often so we are delighted. I have said for a while on our day we can be a match for the teams above.

"I told (Landon Donovan) most of the players in England play with flu four or five times a year. If you are from Los Angeles you probably don't know what flu is! I think Landon would like to stay but at the moment it probably looks as if not. I wouldn't want to have any disrespect to his club or the contract he has over there."

So that's it.

Next match for Man Utd is West ham, fresh from their win against Hull (3-0), home. The match is telecasted and it's on Wednesday 4 am (Local time). SO bets of luck there Reds!

Any feedbacks are welcome. So have a nice day and Assalamualaikum.

Busy-ness March!

Assalamualaikum and good day people.

Oh man.. My schedule's totally crammed up. I'd have a full day classes for 3 weeks max (dunno if it's a straight one) starting March.

Talking about March, I'll have to seat for tons of exams there. The Mid-Terms, which have all four of my subjects, all in mutliple choice.

Sucks...

Prior to that, I'd have my motorbike driving test on 4th of March and car driving test on 12 March, unconfirmed. Talk about busy-ness, the test were dated on weekdays if I'm not mistaken.

So my only rest period would be the weekends, but there's a catch, not ALL of weekends in March. I repeat, I have LESS weekends in MARCH!!!

So yeah.... But, I hope I can see it through and performed. I'm not that kind of guy who lie down and die no...

Anxiety began to filling me and staying in positive, I can't wait to taste them.

Bring it on!!!

Countdown to 14 Feb

February to do list...

Assalamualaikum and good day guys.

It's already the end of 2nd week of February and tomorrow will be the day of... Chinese New Year and V'day! Weeee~~~!

Ok ok. Sadly I don't and won't celebrate V'day like "you" but I have more important agenda on that day. That is, a friend's birthday.

Yeah. Well, I'd let you know some about her. Some.. Yeah. Some. =P

I met her for the first time waaaaaaay back in the kinder garden years so I was like 4 years old then. Since then, we became friend.

I then realised she lived in the apartment next to mine, and I may not often went to her house, nor she went to mine but we used to meet or bumped each other nearby the shop-houses which separate our apartments.

After kinder garden, we both went to the same primary school and spent a good time there for 6 years. However, I started in different class from her, but we used to walk back home together. Even so, I seldom had lunch with her, since I was with my boys. Well, boys always be boys before then. xP

Speaking of together... I used to walk back home with her. My mother would accompany us, and she's happy with her presence. Thus the bonding starts there.

Thorough the six years, I started to have some 'gushy2' feeling towards her. Day by day she became more beautiful and yes, puppy love struck.

But, it's more to one sided since she haven't got a clue of what's happening. I won't say she ignored me, but we both had some spell of time of togetherness.

It's a fact that she's smarter than me, and she excelled thorough the course and scored every finals with flying color. Even the teacher listed her as an 'A' grade student. Well, I'm not that far from her though. (Don't count me out!)

After the primary school, I went to Victoria Institution (V.I) and I have no whereabouts of her going to what school then until I met her wearing Convent Bukit Nenas emblem. So I was like "CBN? Wowzers..." since CBN could consider as 'hotness / fancy / girlish school evah'. Yeah.. Most of my seniors could went gaga over the girls there, and even students from our rival school, the St. John.

Okay. back tot he topic.

Though we went separated but we still keep in touch. After the long 5 years of spell in V.I, it's college time. Again, I don't know here whereabouts.... Until I called her upon her... 18th birthday? I think it was in text, but meh, never mind...

Things went okay. She's doing fine with her course and same goes to me.

Time moving on so fast and it's her 19th birthday yet again and like always, I text-ed her, getting to know what both of us were up to. Of course I've finished my diploma then and she's finished with her matrix, and going for degree, I think? She'd began her degree by now...

Oh well. We meet each other in one occasion, that is my primary school reunion (So much for a reunion... End up only 4 of us attend... XP) and it's o Christmas. Yeah. I got photos of her and the guys in my Facebook. Log in!

And until now, we're much keep in touch with each other via Facebook. Yeah, I guess that's all...?

I know what you might thinking and sadly no. She's not my girlfriend. I can only describe her, as my friend. That's all. (Crush! Crush! Crush!)

That's 14th of February for me, and to all my Chinese friends, I wishing you all Happy Chinese New Year. May the year of the Tiger bring blessing to all of you and may God bless all of you as well. Live long in prosper. :)

Thanks for the time and I hope you guys will enjoy the holiday.

Assalamualaikum and may God be with you. :)

2nd Week of 2010

Assalamualaikum and good day to all of you, friends.

It's already just the second week of 2010, but lately the news weren't something to be amused much. Why? From here to there, conflicts and suffering headlines every news in Malaysia.

From religious conflicts, to death by inhuman murderers, this country seemed 'troubled'.

Is everyone today going loco?

I wish, and urge my friends to not do anything stupid. Please be careful and please don't create any trouble that only justify of what you think you were right. Please think before doing anything, and I mean anything.

Okay, tomorrow's gonna be a pretty tight day for me, and yes, the Convocation will be on this coming Thursday, and I can't wait to be there.

Thanks yo guys for supporting me, but really, I would hardly be like I am right now if it wren't you all to be by my back.

May God blesses all of you, my friends.

Take care.

Assalamualaikum and have a nice day.

2010 started with a yay!

Assalamualaikum and good day people. :)

What a New year I'm having at the moment. My first month of 2010 started with me gettin' the L licence. That's an achievement for me personally.

Albeit I almost flunked in the first part of the test, i barely passed it and my eye sight still not turn me down. Thank God, I've been blessed so much.

And on going to next part, part 2 and part 3 where I'll have two series of riding test. The practices for it were 8 hours approximately and minimally I think, and in one month time (next week ) I can seat for the final tests of part 2 and part 3.

Wish me luck!

Alright, another great moments I'll have is my Convocation Day! Yes. On 14th of January I'll be in a convo for my LCCI Diploma. Man I'm so looking forward to that day. I'm so excited that I wanted to go for a bungee jumping! Weeee~~~!!!

Well, that's all. Keep in touch you guys, alright? May God bless all of you.

Assalamualaikum and Happy New Year!

Bye 2 2009 Hello 2010

... ah yes. I just realised that tonight will be the last night of 2009. The day has passed and we'll soon embarked another new journey of our life.

Eh?

Speaking of which, my "Best of 2009" is done! And the results are....

My Best Song of 2009

  • Winner: New Divide by Linkin Park

Notes: The only fight for this were only between New Divide and Beautiful 'cause Eminem's Beautiful truly blown me away but sadly it came late than New Divide who blown me to the roof. LP's change of direction (a bit?) amazed me and New Divide truly my song of the year!

My Best Movie of 2009

  • Winner: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen starring Shia Le Bouf and Megan Fox

Notes: Did said Le Bouf and Fox? They're the stars? No.. Peter Cullen, voice of Optimus Prime is my star! The movie was well, slightly overrated by some but for me it was awesome! The fight scene was realistic and well CGI-ed and truly made me enjoy the whole movie a lot more. Excuse for Michael Bay for make some differences int he storyline but hey, don't blame him. At least it didn't turned out like Dragon Ball: Evolution or that shitty Street Fighter: Legend of Chun Li. Transfomers will forever be my best!

My Best Footballer of 2009

  • Winner: Lionel Messi

Notes: Whoever scores against Manchester United are totally and intriguingly the star. The skillful little Argentinean stole my heart when he headed home the decisive moment of his career and won his team in the final of Champion's League at Rome in May 2009. Yes. And months later, he was awarded the Ballon d'Or or European Footballer of the Year award and late of this year, he picked up the Footballer of the Year award. Although he's not what I wish to see lifting the trophies (Champion's League, Club World Cup, Ballon d'Or, Footballer of the Year) but he deserved it and these are why he's my best footballer of the year of 2009.

My Best Sportsman of 2009

Winner: Jenson Button

Notes: Yes. It's Jenson Button the F1 driver for the winning team Brawn GP. For years he drove along the road of professional racing, this may be his turning point and he has sounded his intention to be world's no.1 F1 driver. With the help of the whole crew of Brawn GP, his dream of lifting the accolade from his national mate Lewis Hamilton was absolutely, priceless. Well done Mr. Button. Well done.

My Best Anime of 2009

  • Winner: Hellsing Ultimate

Notes: Yes it's bias based vote. Haha. Helsing Ultimate, the ova series and directly based form it's critically acclaimed manga, the whole thing about Hellsing pawn me to the deepest depth of Hell! I was kidding. Surely I wish not to go to Hell. Haha. Hellsing's voices are superbly done and whether it's Japanese or English dubbed, I don't mind. Crispin Freeman voice for Alucard was utterly pure evil and yes, Alucard is the real vampire. Take that Edward Cullen.

So yeah. I hope we'd see again in the next year and may God bless you all, my friends.

Happy New Year and have a nice 2010 ahead.

Thank you and assalamualaikum.

O.K = Obsessioned Khal

Assalamualaikum and holla my friend~

It's funny you know how obsession elude us too. Sometimes we caught in the midst of between reality and fantasy.

Would I find it funny, until that became a problem.

Ladies and gentlemen, being obsessive is good, and is bad also. It all depends on how you cope with it and what kind of obsession we dealing with.

So be-care-full. We never know that one's obsession could make another one in peril. Unintentionally or intentionally.

We do are grown ups aren't we? So please think about it.

Love,
Khal

p/s: I'm obsess of SFO3. Hahaha...
