Manchester United lands the club's 1st summer signing

2011-06-13T16:33:00.000-07:00

Manchester United has finally confirmed the signing of ex-Blackburn defender, Phil Jones. Phil Jones is currently away on International duty with England's Under-21s hence, no press conference or unveiling of the player just yet.

I got to admit, that this transfer took me by surprise. I expected Sir Alex and David Gill to sign David de Gea, Ashley Young, Alexis Sanchez and Wesley Sneijder. Phil Jones never cross my mind because United already has 5 central-defenders at the club already (Vidic, Ferdinand, Smalling, Evans, Brown). Honestly speaking, I would have gone for Simon Kjaer, the Danish international, but, I guess Phil Jones would be okay. Him and Smalling at the U-21s game versus Spain looked solid.

Phil Jones will have to be patient like Smalling because Ferdinand and Vidic will be the main central defensive partnership as always.

How nice if Sir Alex signed Pique again... I WOULD BE ON CLOUD 9!

Welcome PHIL JONES...

Next up, Ashley Young, David de Gea and hopefully Alexis Sanchez or Wesley Sneijder.

Assassins Creed Revelations (e3 video included)

2011-06-08T17:12:00.000-07:00

I am one huge Assassins Creed fan. I've got all 3 Assassins Creed games on the PS3 and I just can't wait to have Revelations...

As usual, Ubisoft will release the game sometime in November (I usually get it as a Christmas present for myself! LOL).

Why am I so hyper about the Assassins Creed series? Well, the gameplay of course. Playing Altair ibn La-Ahad was nice, but I found it was a little bit boring with the repetitive tasks. Yet, the graphics and plot of the game just blew me away. Being able to play a character that causes chaos in cities such as Jerusalem, Arca and the others was an amazing feeling. The game was that good (when it was released). Not forgetting Desmond who is the latest guinea pig for Abstergo.

Then, we gamers and Assassins Creed fanatics met Ezio Auditore da Firenze. Assassins Creed 2 was very different from the first one where by whereby it was in another era and there were additional tasks to be solved; mainly Subject 16's codes. Solving certain codes and puzzles was not easy (especially when looking for the right symbols to to match the numbers). Visiting cities such as Florence, Venice, Romagna-Forli gave me a feeling of being in Italy during the renaissance period myself. And of cause not forgetting my favorite sub-character Mr. Leonardo da Vinci. The inventions such as the hidden blade and pistols made we wonder how the hell did the Ubisoft AC developers come up with such brilliant ideas. Searching for the Assassins tombs was also a brilliant addition by the developers. It was nice seeing Ezio in Altair armor after I got the armor.

Last year, it was the release of Assassins Creed Brotherhood; the continuation of Ezio's journey. This time, it was in ROME. Ezio has to defeat Rodrigo Borgia and his cronies. The fighting scenes became more intense and life-like. I was sad that I could not travel to the other regions in Italy, yet, ROME was one HUGE city by itself already! Again there was subject 16's codes to be broken. And of course there were tombs to be raided as well. This time, the tombs key's would allow Ezio to have Romulus's armor.

This year, it's going to be about a very old Ezio who goes to Constantinople in Assassins Creed revelations. In other words, I CAN'T WAIT...

Check out this trailer from youtube on the E3 expo.

I can't wait to get my hands on the collectors edition of Assassins Creed Revelations PS3!!!

Movie review: X-Men: First Class

2011-06-02T04:34:00.000-07:00

Image source: TwoTalkingMonkeys

Fine.. Its been 4 days since I last blogged.. Boo hoo! I know I said every 2-3 days but, what the heck.. I WAS BORED and there was relatively NOTHING to be BLOGGED about.. Anyways, this post is about X-MEN: FIRST CLASS My score for this X-MEN is 5 star (5 OUT OF 5). I wanna say thanks to my dearest uncle for giving me the Star World VIP Access ticket to catch the Special Screening of this AWESOME show on Tuesday, 31st May 2011. First Class is all about the younger versions of Professor X aka Charles Xavier and Magneto aka Erik Lehnsherr.

Charles Xavier lived the good live... A nice big mansion (which in the future would be the X-MEN Headquarters), had the best education, and an adoptive mutant sister, Raven who is Blue in colour. Erik is a Polish who was separated from his family at a Nazi camp (THINK HOLOCAUST). Erik had the ability to control metal (You didn't know? Go and watch X-MEN: Last Stand (HE MOVED AN ENTIRE BRIDGE!!)

Charles meets Erik after 18 years and they become close friends. The US hire's them (mutants) to search for other mutants to help stop a possible 3rd world war with USSR aka Russia and its allies. James McAvoy was a pretty good young adult version of Prof. X, and Michael Fassbender was a scary looking Magneto. Can thank Raven for coming up with the names... So, basically, along the way, Erik and Charles got to search for other mutants.

Meanwhile, Sebastian Shaw aka the Nazi officer that killed Erik's mum in front of Erik has his own mutant followers and they are planning to start the next World War between the US and USSR.

Erik and Charles meets up with Hank a brilliant engineer with hands instead of foot, Darwin the mutant that can adapt to his surrounding, Angel a mutant with wings attached to her back, Havok who can generate Plasma Blasts, and finally Banshee well who has SUPER STRONG LUNGS like a BANSHEE... Hugh Jackman did a small cameo as Wolverine (Erik and Charles tried to recruit him, he told them to f**k themselves and get lost!) LOL.. I miss Wolverine!!!!!!

The X-Men team members had their 1st face-off with Sebastian Shaw at a secured CIA base while Erik, Charles and a few other CIA members including Moira MacTaggert (the person who introduced Charles and his mutant theory to the CIA heads). The CIA cannot believe that mutants exist... bla bla bla.. .

Back to the face-off... Well, the "kids" were left unprotected without Erik and Charles. So, they were ALONE (kinda). During the battle, Darwin dies trying to protect Angel who decided to join Shaw. (Oh ya. Sebastian Shaw has the power to absorb any type of energy and can channel it anywhere he wants to). Darwin died swallowing Havok Plasma Blast which was forced into his mouth by Dr. Shaw. Hence, there was only 4 X-MEN left on the team.

When Charles and Erik returns, they know that the CIA base is not save anymore, hence, the team head to Charles's mansion and start their training there. How BEAST came to be you might ask. Hank injected himself with a serum that can "cure him of his physical appearance (the hands for foot part)". Sadly, instead of making him look normal, he became well a big hairy beast!

I loved the tension scenes amongst the Russian and the Americans. (This is WAR!!! if they cross the border!)... The battle amongst the mutants was good as well. Reminds me a lil bit of The Final Stand but on a small scale. Erik defeats Sebastian Shaw, and he takes Shaw's helmet (the Red helmet Magneto loves to wear on his head!).

The USSR and US navy ships then decide to kill the mutants via missiles no thanks to the head of Governments at US which deemed that the mutants were dangerous. Erik stops the missiles and sends them back to their senders. Charles does not want the humans to be hurt. bla bla bla.. typical Prof. X.

After dropping the missiles in the sea, Erik says that mutants should not hide themselves, they should be proud. So, Raven and 3 of Shaw's crew joins him. (One original crew of Shaw dies during Charles and Erik's mission-watch the movie to find out!) How did Professor X become wheelchair bound? Well, a bullet which is Erik tried to dodge hits Charles in his spine. Ouch! The bottom half of his torso was paralyzed. That's why he is in a wheel-chair all the time.

The story line was less dramatic as X-MEN: The final stand, yet, it was still enjoyable and exciting. James McAvoy did a good job. I'm glad I saw X-MEN: First Class... Have you? If not... WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING... GO AND WATCH IT... (again, sadly Hugh Jackman didn't play a major part! I miss the Wolf-man!)

HAVE FUN!!!

Disappointed Man United fan... And, Congratulations BARCELONA... You guys deserved it....

2011-05-29T03:31:00.000-07:00

It's hard for a die hard Man United fan like myself to admit that Barcelona deserved the win the Champions League trophy instead of my beloved United. Yet, it's the truth and a fact which I'll have to accept...

The United team played brilliant attacking football for the 1st 10 minutes of the game. Then, it all went down when the Barcelona players started to play their attacking and passing way. United's midfield of Park, Giggs, Carrick and Valencia could not deal with the likes of Xavi, Pedro, Iniesta and Busquets.

I mean, Park is the hard-working engine of the United midfield and yesterday he was "chasing shadows" in the middle of the field, moving from one Barca player to another. It was a pointless move. What was Ryan Giggs doing? He had a horrid time on the field and his only contribution was the back pass to Rooney whom scored United's sole goal. And don't get me started on Valencia. He was supposed to be the man that did the runs down the flank! He was to mastermind the counter-attacks and well crosses for Rooney and Hernandez. What did I see yesterday? I saw a totally different side of Valencia. The Valencia I saw kept tackling the Barca players and I thought that on several occasions that he should have been booked! That was how bad Valencia of all people played yesterday! Carrick? Well, he was well the same old Carrick....

I just don't understand why Sir Alex started with Giggs and Carrick. Why didn't he play Anderson and Fletcher! Giggs clearly didn't have his head in the game! Anderson and Fletcher deserved to be in the Starting 11.. And Nani should have started instead of Valencia.

Rooney was running all over the field yesterday and yet United could not dominate the game. Hernandez was left upfront all alone and he had so many offside decisions against him. For the first 10-15 minutes, Hernandez showed potential then he could score against Victor Valdez. Sadly, that moment never came. Hernandez barely had the ball in the 2nd half because United kept giving the ball away and because Barca wouldn't let go of the ball.. Their passing was superb and lightning quick! The likes of Carrick and Giggs were left standing like spectators!

As for the defence... It was a rare day when the Rio-Vidic partnership failed to keep the likes of Messi, Pedro and David Villa at bay. The two of them couldn't communicate properly throughout the match! What went wrong?
Don't get me started on Evra! What was Evra doing in the middle of the field and I really mean in the middle! If he was at the half-way line but at his left-side I would understand. He was freakin in the MIDDLE! His mistake of man-marking cost United an early goal. Pedro was unmarked and he slotted past a dumfounded van der Sar.
Fabio had a relatively OKAY game himself. His main contribution was blocking a goal-bound shot by a Barcelona player. And he took a knock for his effort.

As for van der Sar, he had a good day himself. Sadly, his last day as a United player will be one that he will want to forget. He let in 3 goals. He didn't have a chance with Messi's goal but I felt that he could have been more alert with Pedro's goal.

It was a bitter sweet day for me, because my favourite football team lost. However, I was sort-of-happy as well because my favourite footballer aka Gerard Pique added another Champions League medal to his ever growing trophy cabinet. Well done Pique.
I still feel the pain of seeing Pique play for Barca and not United.
Why oh why did Sir Alex let him go. And for such a cheap deal as well....

Xavi, Iniesta, Messi and co played their heart out for the beloved Barca...
They deserved their victory. Anybody who disagrees should smack their head and watch the replay of the game. Yes there was some acting by Busquest, but, all in all, the entire team bled for Barca.

Lesson of the day: Man United needs to sign an attacking midfielder, I would love to see Wesley Sneijder at the heart of the United midfield. The midfield was so boring yesterday.
2ndly, United needs to sign another winger, say Alexis Sanchez or Ashley Young.
And of cos A BRILLIANT GOALKEEPER to replace the retiring EDWIN VAN DER SAR....

Sir Alex cannot keep telling himself, the fans and the press that his current team is good and winner worthy! He needs to strengthen his team and it is necessary to splash out on QUALITY players and not take a gamble on the likes of Bebe.

Hernandez in my opinion is the buy of the season! He still has time and space to learn and improve his skills. In return, he will end up winning more medals come next season...

Even though Manchester United lost in the Champions League final yesterday,
I am still proud of the players and manager.
They will pick up their feet and come back strong next season!
Come on Sir Alex and David Gill! Bring in the signings that will make United THE BEST TEAM IN THE WORLD!!!

Glory Glory Man United....
Glory Glory Man United....
Glory Glory Man United....
And the REDS go Marchin on on on.....

Championes... Championes... Ole... Ole... Ole...
19 PREMIER LEAGUE TITLES and counting........

The new 2011/2012 Manchester United home kit

2011-05-23T18:24:00.001-07:00

This is the new home kit for the coming season.

Found out about it via an e-mail I received from United Direct.

Looks pretty simple don't you think? And the collar... Well, reminds me of Manchester United's current away kit and the 2010/2011 Spain world cup jersey (except it was blue and red for Spain).

So, if any fans are interested in pre-ordering the kit, kindly pre-order them from the official Manchester United online megastore aka United Direct.

I'll be getting mine soon...

Movie review: Pirates of the Caribbean: At Stranger Tides

2011-05-23T17:59:00.000-07:00

I've got to say this: Johnny Depp is the face of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
I did not miss Orlando Bloom nor Kiera Knightly at all! Penelope Cruz did a brilliant job impersonating our beloved "Captain" Jack Sparrow. And boy can she sword-fight.

The story-line was good as usual. This time, it was all about Jack Sparrow searching for the illusive 'Fountain of Eternal Youth' which he has been searching for a very very long time.
Problem is, the Catholics in Spain, the Protestants in England and old Blackbeard too are after the sought after 'liquid' that can make the drinker you-know-what.

I was not impressed with the way Disney showed how barbaric the mermaids could be. Thanks so much Disney! All this while, I loved mermaids because of Ariel in the Little Mermaid. Now? Because of Pirates of the Caribbean 4 I'm having second thoughts.

The ingredients/items needed to perform the special ritual at the Fountain of Youth was well fascinating and quest like. The items needed were a map, two silver chalices and a mermaid's tear. The first two items were in Ponce de Leon's ship aka Santiago. Loved the scene when Jack tries to remove the map and the skull of the dead captain follows him. Haha... Classic.

One funny moment was when Jack and Barbosa were captured by the Spanish. They cunningly and slyly sneaked in the Spanish King's tent and stole the 2 chalices. Typical Jackie doing easy yet funny stunts.
Yet another hilarious moment was during Gibb's trial at court. Judge "Sparrow" comes in and precedes the trial. So funny the way he asked the Jury whether Gibbs (accused of being Jack Sparrow) was guilty or not.
Want another laughter moment? Hell yeah! The scene when Jack tries desperately to get the bun from the table whilst being strapped to the chair. Only Jack Sparrow can jerk the chair forward, look around, move it forward again, stop and look around, jerk forward again and finally throw the bun up and get it stuck in the chandelier. How does he get the bun back? He jumps up and gets it of cos!
Oh yeah. I also loved the father-son moments Jack Sparrow had with his dad. Jackie boy. LOL. As a whole. I thoroughly enjoyed On Stranger Tides. Just hated the mermaid part (too freaky!) Penelope Cruz and her sister Monica did a good job as Angelica. Not so Angelic if u ask me. And Johnny Depp. What can I say? I love his wacky way of running and they way he says and does stupid things. My favorite quotes from the movie:

"So the Pearl. Any idea on how to get her out?"
"We shall need a crossbow, an hourglass, three goats, one of us must learn to play the trumpet, whilst the other one goes like this. [waves his fingers]"
"I know a man with a goat."
"Good, I can go like this. [waves his fingers]"

"Captain, I wish to report a mutiny! I can name fingers and point names."
"No need, Mr. Sparrow. They are sheep. You, their shepherd."

"You're either with us or against us!"
"I'm not with you neither am I against you."
"Can he do that?"
"He's religious. I believe it's required."

"What were you doing in a Spanish convent anyway?!"
"Mistook it for a brothel. Honest mistake."

"Did everyone see that? Because I will not be doing it again."

"I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. The original. The only!"

And my personal favourite: You know that feeling you get when you're standing in a high place… sudden urge to jump? …I don't have it

Manchester United lifts the Premier League trophy for a record 19th time

2011-05-22T10:38:00.000-07:00

It was a magnificent day for me as a Man United fan as I saw my favorite football club win the Barclays Premier League title for a record 19th time (In your face Liverpool fans! I guess your "Come back when you've won 18 titles taunt" have finally come to haunt you eh?)

It was so nice to see young players such as Chris Smalling, Fabio and Rafael da Silva as well as Javier Hernandez aka "Chicharito" win their 1st premier league medals. Well done lads... Job well done especially Hernandez! What a season he has had! Brilliant goal-poacher and scorer... He kept the clubs top scorer aka Dimitar Berbatov on the bench because HE WAS THAT GOOD!!!

And it was just sublime to see Michael Owen get his 1st ever premier league winner's medal and lift the trophy which he could not do while at Anfield. Poor Liverpool supporters. It was bad enough when Owen signed for United. Now, he helped Manchester United win the 19th Premier League title which is 1 more than Liverpool. (OUCH! Talk about rubbing salt to a very very deep wound!)

I would also like to wish Sir Alex Ferguson "CONGRATULATIONS!", the master tactician behind Manchester United's victory! I had my doubts when Sir Alex bought only the likes of Smalling, Bebe and Hernandez instead of World Cup players such as Sneidjer, Ozil or even van der Vaart! United had a superb home record but their away form was horrible. United either drew or lost on their away games and it was a sore sight watching how badly United played in their away games. Yet, the Man United played through it all and WON THE TITLE for an unprecedented 19th time... WAY TO GO LADS!!!!

One thing that irritates me is what others have said about the current Manchester United squad. Yes they were brilliant at home and horrible away. Yet! One cannot simply say that this is the worst United team ever! If the worst United team in history won the premier league title, what does it say about the clubs? *Something to ponder eh?*

Anyways, MANCHESTER UNITED are the CHAMPIONS of England and I am proud of the team and club! Who says United cannot survive without Ronaldo and Tevez!? We've got Rooney, Chicharito, Valencia and so many other talented footballers.

Glory Glory Man United...
Glory Glory Man United...
Glory Glory Man United...
And the Reds go marchin on on on....

Championes... Championes... Ole... Ole... Ole...
Championes... Championes... Ole... Ole... Ole...
We've kicked Liverpool of their perch! YEAH!!!

Oh how I wish I was at Old Trafford right now...

Super RELEGATION BATTLE Sunday...

2011-05-22T07:50:00.000-07:00

1 team already relegated [West Ham]
2 more to go...

5 teams will bleed sweat to make sure that they avoid the drop zone... Who will survive?
Wigan? Blackpool? Birmingham? Blackburn? Wolves?

Also, looks like Sir Alex has put forward a pretty strong team albeit without Rooney and Hernandez upfront.

I still don't get it why many were against the idea of Sir Alex fielding a "weakened team"... I mean HELLO!! Each club is required to register 25 players right? I'm sure every player in the 25 man team is eligible to play in any premier league game no matter how the team sheet comes up.. So whats up with all the negativity about fining Man United if they field a reserve team? Its all bullocks if you ask me.. Total crap! And its the Champions League final next weekend... CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL AGAINST BARCELONA!! Surely Sir Alex has the right to rest KEY MEMBERS OF HIS SQUAD so they will stay fresh for the Barca game right?
What a biased game football is... Fair Play konon....

Oh yeah, before I forget... GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED.... CHAMPIONES... CHAMPIONES.. OLE OLE OLE OLE.... CHAMPIONES... CHAMPIONES.. OLE.. OLE.. OLE........ We've retained the premier league, we've knocked Liverpool off their perch... SWEET SEASON ALL RIGHT!!!!!

Chuck back for yet another season!!!

2011-05-21T22:28:00.000-07:00

YES!!! You read this alright...

My favourite TV series "CHUCK" is back for season 5!
I was afraid that NBC would end the brilliant spy series because of its low-ratings (average 4.7million viewes for season 4). But, it looks like the new management at NBC wanted CHUCK to have a good send-off after all...

I didn't quite like the season finale because MORGAN IS THE NEW INTERSECT!
I mean come on! Morgan??? Chuck is all about Chuck, Sarah and Casey. Morgan is just a side character! I want the good old intersect/spy CHUCK back...

According NBC, there'll be 13 episodes for Season 5... NOT ENOUGH FOR ME... I want CHUCK to go on forever and ever... I'm going to miss the on-screen chemistry between Chuck (Zach Levi) and Sarah (Yvoone Strahovski)... They're the spy Ross and Rachel (FRIENDS)... Best TV couple for me!

Oh yeah.. Did I mention that CHUCK will now air on Fridays instead of Mondays? I've got to wait 4 days EACH WEEK before I can watch CHUCK! Gosh! The torture of waiting... ahh!!!!!!

Spoilers: CHUCK owns the BUY MORE.. Finally he achieved something after his untimely exit from Stanford... Way to go Alexie Volkoff! I don't mind getting a wedding present like that in real life... *hint hint*...

I can't wait for SEASON 5... Bring on CHUCK season 5! Independent SPY AGENTS!!!

Inheritance (Book 4 in the Inheritance Cycle)

2011-05-21T21:05:00.000-07:00

6 more months till I get my hands on Poalini's awesome book!

Yeah I know that this might be late news but Christopher Paolini is finally releasing his final book of the Inheritance Cycle... What's the books name you ask? Well. "INHERITANCE" will be the title of the final book according to Paolini.

So, the release date is the 8th of November. (I so can't wait!!!)

So many questions needs answering in the final book!

1. Where is the vault of souls?
The place where the eldunari's of the older dragon's are kept safe... Where? hmm...

2. Whom will the green dragon hatch for?
My guess would be Arya. I mean imagine Arya and Eragon as shadeslayers and dragon riders together!! I would love that!

3. Will Arya and Eragon finally admit that they love each other and be together.
I think so... Come on... Don't deny it that Arya doesn't have feelings for Eragon? Bah! Go and read book 3!

4. What will happen to Galbatorix?
He could be dead or Eragon could jail him for eternity...

5. Will the people of Palancar Valley go back to their destroyed homeland?

6. Is the Rock of Kuthian the the place where the eldunari's are kept?
I think so. Huge possibility!
7. Will we get to know more about Angela's past? I mean come on! How old is she (her real exact age!!!).

8. Will the battle between Eragon and 1/2 brother Murtagh be a bloody bloodshed?
Or will Eragon and Murtagh fight side-by-side?

9. What will happen to Elva.

I hope all this questions and more will be answered come 8th November 2011....

If you've not read the previous book "Brisingr" you can read a brief summary in my earlier post! Here's the link...

Now is the time SAF wishes he had Gerard Pique... I hope the red devils win their match in Spain against Valencia today! Or else, Champs league dreams will be on a knife's edge!

GLAD TO BE BACK BLOGGING!!! hahahaha

My Harry Potter Movie Location Pilgrimage (2010)

2010-06-04T19:53:00.000-07:00

Yup! This is the jealous-ing post... hahahaha

I'm very lucky to have gone to England for a second time in my lifetime. This time, I made sure I went to most of the HARRY POTTER movie locations because, well, I'M A HARRY POTTER FREAK! Literally! My three favourite books are HARRY POTTER, THE LORD OF THE RINGS AND THE INHERITENCE SAGA (eragon, eldest, brisingr, part4-unknown).
So, I started at the easier and nearest location. THE MILLENNIUM BRIDGE. In the book it is refered to as the Brockdale bridge (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Price).

Movie scene:

The muggles on the Brockdale Bridge

The Brockdale bride twisting and soon colapses

Pics of me there (Brockdale bridge aka Millennium Bridge):

Me at the Millennium Bridge... hehe... (Got a better shot but its currently stuck in a computer in England)

The art centre... in the movie that building was the office where the muggles saw the death eater destroying the bridge....

Next, part of Hogwarts castle filmed at Alnwick Castle, in Alnwick (quite near Scotland). Alnwick (pronounced Ann-ick) is a REAL castle with REAL inhabitants... The 14th Duke of Alnwick (if not mistaken)... Family name.. PERCY. Remember the Socceror's stone Quiddicth scene? Their 1st flying lesson and the first time Harry and Oliver wood trained for Quidditch? It was filmed here... Lucky me... Also, part of the interior was used in the movie... Example: The GREAT DOOR, and the benches...

Pics of me (Quidditch location)-not the stadium kay! That was filmed elsewhere:

Looks familiar? Oliver Wood and Harry Potter's 1st Quidditch lesson. 1st time he saw the Golden Snitch!

Awww... See the wall? It was in the movie... Don't believe me.. See the movie for yourself!

The famous HARRY POTTER's 1st flying lesson wall... Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) was here... Harry Potter (Dan Radcliffe) was here. MARIANNE TAN(unknown to them) was here!!! hahaha

Hehehe... I love this castle... so majestic! oh ya. The tower was where Neville Longbottom had his fall! OUCH!

I'll upload the rest later... Internet connection getting suckier.... I have more on Alnwick plus, THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS!!!!

I'M BACK!!!!

2010-06-04T19:41:00.000-07:00

Hahaha... After an absence of 6 months, I've decided to BLOG again... woo hoo..
Get ready for some trashing, jealous-ing and etc..

Well, let's start with college LEVEL 2 semester 1...

I've got to say that I've pretty much enjoyed myself so far...
IBM is the best class at the moment... The lecturer makes the class fun and educational at the same time... I LOVE IT... bad part: I am the class monitor... grr.. And here I am thinking of skipping some of that particular subject's class (hey! not for fun kay! cos st.anne's feast coming!)

E-commerce and E-marketing... all the E's... E-marketing kind of okay... E-Commerce lecturer is so FUNNY... And he also elected me as MONITOR... haihz... aduh... And he knows what slides can bore students so he will skip them... THANKS SIR... U saved our BRAINS!!!!

The other classes are quite okay as well....

Match analysis for this week concerning the big 4 plus Man Citeh!!!!

2009-11-22T05:20:00.000-08:00

Loserpoo drawing Man Citeh

- Awesome match!!! LOSERPOO ARE LITERALLY DEAD without TORRES... lucky donkeys had Gerrard...
-Didn't want either team to win as I DESPISE both teams...
-Tevez's standards has dropped drastically since joining Citeh! BAH! Serves him right
-Was a lil bit happy when Citeh were leading 2-1, became happier when Benayoun scored... DRAW! BAH!!!

Arse-senal losing to Sunderland

- I actually supported Sunderland... My British uncle supports them, so, well, because I HATE ARSENAL, i supported Sunderland as well..
- Andy Reid is one AWESOME PLAYER... He has helped me alot in fantasay football...
- Poor Kieran Richardson, not the same since leaving United.. Come on kid'! U can do it
- No van Persie, no win!!!
- Fabregas was a good captain, sadly playing in a lousy team
- There was a HORRIBLE TACKLE by sagna(if not mistaken) and yet, nothing happened!!!
(My game is Fair Play?? hahaha!!!!!)
- WHAT A GOAL BY DARREN BENT.. Heads in, then, poof KICKS IT INTO THE NET!!!

Chelski winning against Wolves...

- HATED IT... Why did they win? And without DROGBA at that!!!!
- Joe Cole back to his scoring ways? NO!!!!!
- Essian... Why did you snub Man United?? He could have had a HAT-TRICK!!!
- Wolves were USELESS basically.. It was babies against Men, not Boys against Men!!!
- Carlo and his team are 5 points clear at the top!!! Grrr

MANCHESTER UNITED WINNING against EVERTON!!!!

- FLETCHER SCORED!!! CARRICK SCORED!!! VALENCIA IS A SCORING MACHINE AT THE MOMENT!!
- Valencia is a new man! At Wigan, he rarely scored, now, poof, sometimes scores important goals as well!!!
- The evergreen GIGGS was brilliant as usual!
- OWEN!!! Come on, take your chances and score!!! No Berbatov to stop u now, show Sir Alex your true potential!!!
- GREAT TO HAVE VAN DER SAR back in goal!!! Can't wait to have Manuel Neuer!!!
- Wes Brown.. Excellent!! Vidic, AMAZING...
- RAFAEL... Welcome back!!
- Obertan, what a BRIGHT FUTURE THAT KID HAS!!!

All in all, although Chelsea won, I'm glad Arse-senal and Loserpoo didn't!!!!

COME ON UNITED... THERE'S ONLY ONE UNITED!!! THE TITLE IS OURS FOR THE TAKING!!!!!

New Moon is COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009-11-14T05:21:00.000-08:00

HELL YEAH!!!

Sadly, it only premiers in Malaysia on the 27th of November. 1 week later than other countries... Fair huh???

I got to say this... I am not a huge fan of the Twilight series. I am more of a Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and The Inheritance Trilogy (Eragon, Eldest and Brisingr) fan.

Having said that, it doesn't mean I am not a FAN at all... I mean, Stephenie Meyer can really write a vampire, human, werewolf love triangle, and brilliantly done at that!

What's so funny, is that many organizations are trying to make money from the TWILIGHT franchise. Below are a few examples to help HYPE THE FANS (fans like me)..

1. Malaysia's very own GALAXIE MAGAZINE....
Normally, Galaxie has only 1 cover. But, hello.. hello.... TWILIGHT time, so, let's come up with 2 covers!!!
Luckily I am a Galaxie subscriber. Because I'm sure many avid fans will rush to the stands or bookstore to get hold of the Magazine...
Here's why...

http://galaxieblog.com.my/blog/permalink.asp?id=2742#comments

2. MATTEL aka BARBIE is getting on with the flow as well...

http://www.barbiecollector.com/news/news.aspx?news_id=227

I have to admit, the dolls do not look like the TWILIGHT stars yet, IT'S A COLLECTIBLE! HELLO!!!
I am not shy to admit that although I am 20 years old, I still collect BARBIE DOLLS together with my dad and younger sis... Not play them, just collect them... Weird? Yeah?? But not for us!!!

3. BORDERS BOOKSTORE

http://www.borders.com/online/store/MediaView_twilightshop?sc_eid2=bannertwilightshop-111009

yup... A bookstore has caught up as well...

There are so many more... Doubt there will be place to post!

So, there you go...

Twilight fan or not, you got to admit, the TWILIGHT frenzie can make one go MAD...

November 27th, HERE I COME... NEW MOON!!!!!!!!

A very disappointing result for a match where Chelsea did not deserve to win!

2009-11-09T02:28:00.000-08:00

GOAL?????????????????????
Hello, firstly, it was NOT a free-kick... Bloody ref needs to get glasses!

Fletcher clearly won the ball! Didn't even touch Ashley Cole..
That arse dived! Won't be the first time he dived since he dives for prostitutes as well..

Secondly, DROGBA clearly obstructed Brown... And Drogba was EFFING offside...

What the hell is wrong with referees nowadays???

Too many decisions have gone against United's way... There is no such thing as MY GAME IS FAIR PLAY and all the other Football Bullshits!!!!

I strongly agree that TECHNOLOGY should come into play! Like tennis!!! When the player has a decision gone against him/her, he/she asks for replay... and BAM... The player was right!!

So, FIFA, FA, whatever u call yourselves, FOOTBALL IS AT A STAGE WHEREBY REFEREES NEED THE ASSISTANCE OF TECHNOLOGY!!! A REPLAY OF THE INCIDENT WOULD BE GOOD TO START WITH!!!!

Like I said, CHELSEA DID NOT DESERVE THE WIN... As a matter of fact, should have had a Chelsea player sent off aka Ricardo Carvalho... His second tackle on Rooney was BOGUS!!!

Next issue... Stop play when 2 or more players clash!!!

HELLO U STUPID REF!
2 chelsea players clashed into themselves! That's their fault. Let play continue!!! Why stop play?
When a chelsea player clashes into a United player, NO NEED TO STOP PLAY???
Remember the 1st match of the season? The community shield match?
Man United had Berbatov and another player down thanks to 2 seperate fouls... Did the ref stop play???
No.... what happened? CHELSEA SCORED A GOAL!!!

How long till the Football Governing Body realizes that REFEREE'S ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM TO BE!
TECHNOLOGY IS A NEED!!! NOT A WANT!!! AN IMPORTANT NEED IN FOOTBALL!!!

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED!!! Justice will serve!!!

Sweet Lucky ESCAPE!!!

2009-11-06T00:15:00.000-08:00

Its been a loooooooong time since I used a parking ticket which I had to actually scratch on the day I was parking at the CRAZY CAR PARK. Why? Because the TPM security don't usually check the Crazy Car Park for those who park their cars there "illegally".
I saved RM3 every effing day! That's a whole lot of money saved!!!

Today however, the TPM people decided to have a surprise check! Nasib baik Chan Fai's friend warned us... If not? RM50 fine weih!!!

So, after Service Management class, me, Chii Min and Chan Fai ran for our cars.. And let me tell you this... running with STOMACH ACHE AIN'T A PRETTY SIGHT!!! IT HURT BAD... REAL BAD!!!!

My car was so close to being clammed! hahaha... Lucky I had a parking coupon.. I just scratch the month and year off.. Not the date...

So, starting next week, got to start parking my car at THE END OF THE WORLD CAR PARK... Coz it ain't worth it parking at Crazy Car Park, especially when u have other double and triple park you!!!

SWEET LUCKY ESCAPE??? HELL YEAH!!!!

Accounts? My new possible best friend? It better be!!!!

2009-11-04T05:19:00.000-08:00

I have to take accounts this semester.. And the best part is that I have to pass it with flying colours if I want my GPA to maintain its almost perfect score (current) of 3.83 out of 4!

Best part is, I HAVEN'T THE FOGGIEST WHAT ACCOUNTS WANTS FROM ME! Its so effing confusing!!! Balance Sheet, Equity, Capital?
Gosh, I'll hire an accountant to do my tax!!!!
Still, it would be good to know some basic accounting so others won't try to scam me!!!

So, here's to my new friendship with Accounts... Please let me understand you because I HAVEN'T THE FOGGIEST WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO TELL ME!!!!!
SO HELP ME, AND LET ME PASS MY PAPER!!!

An open msg to APIIT/UCTI drivers... "BRAINLESS BODOH BUNCH OF BABOONS!!!!!!!" (Professor McGonnagal, nd)

2009-11-03T04:56:00.000-08:00

I understand that you want to triple park my car after I double park a friends car.
I'm cool with it.
But what Im pissed about is that YOU WENT OFF FOR LUNCH WHILE UR EFFING CAR WAS STILL BLOCKING MY CAR!!!!
AND YOU HAD THE GUT AND KNACK TO SAY "sorry ah, I'm out for lunch... Will be back in an hour!"
DUDE! What if I WAS IN A HURRY!!! say... AN EMERGENCY??? A Dying RELATIVE????
Mana LU PUNYA OTAK!!!!!! Geezzz......

So, I couldn't just wait for the PIG to come back in an hours time.. I had to reverse, forward, reverse, forward my car for an approx 70 times till I got out of the sardine tight parking lot!

Pls lah... Wanna block peoples car, DO SO WITH UR BRAIN INTACT!!!
Dont block then head off for LUNCH!!!
That person is so lucky that I am a considerate person and did not decide to BANG HIS CAR OR SCRATCH HIS CAR!!!

Moral of the story!!! CRAZY CAR PARK GIVES U HELL.... END OF THE WORLD BETTER!!!!

Marianne Tan's reiew on Michael Jackson's THIS IS IT

2009-11-02T03:20:00.000-08:00

This is what I got to say.... UH-MAY-ZING!!! aka AMAZING!!!! Brilliant! Excellent!!!

I only knew MJ in the 1990's thanks to my parents... Fav MJ songs: Black or White, Man in the Mirror(BEST SONG EVER), Thriller, Heal the World, Smooth Criminal, I'll be there, We are the world, They don't really care about us, History, Beat it, Billie Jean and You rock my world...

Yesterday, November 1st 2009, I officially saw the MJ THIS IS IT "documentary" at the CINEMA...

I have been to concerts, LIVE concerts, and none of them can match the Michael Jackson THIS IS IT rehearsal!!!

Avril Lavigne's THE BEST DAMN THING saw her singing, dancing, playing instruments such as the piano, drum and the guitar... SHE IS ONE GIFTED CANADIAN!!! Loved the concert!!!

The Jonas Brothers 3D Concert Experience was superb... With the props and fire... I loved it...

I can go on... and on...

The MJ one was WAY DIFFERENT...

Imagine, a 50 year old man, dancing as though he was 30!!! That's what makes MJ special...
The moves, the steps... GOSH... One could melt just watching him dance...
And not to mention his amazing voice and songs...

THIS IS IT had its 3d graphics and animation...
THRILLER was SUPERB... The zombies were scary and funny at the same time... The re-enacment of the song/video that made MJ so famous mesmerized me!!!

BILLIE JEAN was another one... WHAT DANCE STEPS... gosh! the moves....

Then, Black or White, THE GUITARIST was EXCELLENT!!! Loved the rehearsal!

THEY DON'T REALLY CARE ABOUT US was my brothers favourite, as it is his favourite song... The robots... WOW... Pure Genius!!

Another ingenious work was SMOOTH CRIMINAL!!! Boy I loved it... Guns, matrix, running... AND OF COURSE... THE DANCE!!!

Kenny Ortega was right... The world would finally be able to see MJ for who he really was/is... A kind hearted, caring, talented and gifted dancer/singer/song composer/PERSON!!!

So, for those of you whom haven't seen THIS IS IT yet... WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!!! GET OUT! GO AND WATCH IT IN THE CINEMA/THEATER!!!!!!!

Homework on my second day of a new semester!!! wth!!!!

2009-10-28T05:38:00.000-07:00

Gosh.....
It's the second day and the torture has begun!

For Accounting class, we've got to research on "Famous Fraud Cases".
Includes Enron, Worldcom, Satyam and the famous Mr Benedict Madoff...

Who knew the people involved could be so MONEY MINDED... I mean, come on... Greed has its limits!!!

So, now, I've got to GOOGLE these fraud cases...
I've got to say that MADOFF is a brilliant guy!
I mean, the famous people and organizations he conned is a marvel!!! How did he do it?

Oh ya... Do fraud, and you get caught? Ain't a pretty sight to behold...
Jail term could reach 120 years!!! IMAGINE THAT!!!

To all the frauders and potential frauders, REPENT!!!!!!

End of 1 month Semester Break...

2009-10-26T01:48:00.000-07:00

It's official...
My one month semester break is over.. (NO!!!!!)

I wish it were longer... 2 months perhaps??? 1 effing month is not enough!!!

So, what did I do eh?

Marianne : The usual, boring stuff lah....
*The above reply is what I gave all my friends that asked that particular question....

I had so much free time, I actually took the liberty of re-reading my all time favourite fiction novels...

They are:
1.The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Also watched the Extended Version movie) and played LOTR:Conquest on the PS3!

2. HARRY POTTER... (Yeah, includes Tales of Beedle the Bard, as well as Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them)... I even watched the HARRY POTTER MOVIES AGAIN!!!

3. Michelle was bugging me to read the TWILIGHT SAGA.. So I gave in... Can't wait for New Moon to come out (And yes, I watched Twilight yet again)

4. Read Brisingr... Didn't have time to read Eragon and Eldest because they were with Michelle....

That was on Reading... I also watched COUNTLESS MOVIES.... Over and over again... Such as Made of Honour, 27 Dresses, Sister Act 1, Miracle of Marcelino and so on..
Oh ya, I like watching ROYAL PAINS... Hank is one cute doctor....

Then, there's of cos the Playstation... It will not be a holiday without my faithful PS3...

So, there u go... BORING...... (wait... forgot to include SHOPPING and STUFFING MY MOUTH WITH PENANG DELIGHTS!!!!!!!!)

THE END......

No idea what to post

2009-09-02T07:20:00.000-07:00

So, looks like I'm gonna have a week's study break (doubt I'll study when I'm back home).
Then, 5 days of exam agony! 5 days straight! Wonder how that will be!
Then... Its 1 whole month of HOLIDAY-ing!!

So, what shall I do?
30 days can be a bore!

Done with assignments and presentations, now... test... then? EXAMS!!!!

2009-08-27T04:50:00.000-07:00

Gosh... Part A and B of my 1st semester in Degree Level 1 is DONE!!!
5 assignments, 3 presentations!!!
Thankfully I aced 2 assignments!!! I want to thank all those that helped me!!!

Next up? QSS test!
And maths ain't easy!!! Too many crappy formulas to use!!!
Why can't those smart people just keep the formula's to themselves!!!

EXAMS!!!!
Lucky the exam duration is 1 week! I don't want the college/university to drag it to 2 weeks! It would have been pointless!!!!

So, yah! That's my latest post... Will post more when I'm back in PENANG!!!!!

and........................... MANCHESTER UNITED ARE BACK!!!!!

2009-08-22T22:49:00.000-07:00

Yes.. I know... I have been critical on Man United because of the lack of goals...
You know what??? After that post, some how, Manchester United just woke up! and ... BOOOM!!
5 nil to kill off WIGAN!!!

2 goals from Rooney, 1 each from Berbatov, Owen, and a spectacular free-kick from NANI!!!

I got to say... The 1st half was scary... United could have been 3 up by half-time... BUT! Rooney missed many chances...
The best 1st half chance has to be SCHOLES.... During his hay day, he would have placed the ball at the back of the net! But, yesterday, he seemed to have lost that final touch!

I am happy with the current squad... The players can get the goals, BUT, the goals will only come after one player starts scoring... United needs the spark!!!

I just hope Sir Alex will go shopping before the transfer window closes next week!!!
Come on... Get Douglas Costa and a striker!!!!

I tried not to blog bout him... But, I just can't!!!!

2009-08-20T23:29:00.000-07:00

Poor guy...
He passed away on the 25th of June, and yet, he still has not been laid to rest yet..
What the hell is wrong with the people surrounding him???

He was a POP ICON, a ROLE MODEL for some, and for me, well, an AWESOME singer whose songs used to make my hyper when my dad blasted them!!!!

Come on lah... Just bury him! 1st it was the 29th of August (Which would have been his 51st bday).
Now, supposedly the 31st of August (The day Princess Diana died and not forgetting MALAYSIA'S INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!!)

How long can one keep a corpse?
In Asia, the longest is 2 weeks!!! And that is for someone who is SUPER IMPORTANT!!!

Then, we have the tabloids kutuk-ing him non-stop!!!
HELLO!!! He is gone! Just leave him in peace!
So what if he has a LOVE child who is 25 yrs old??? If it were someone not important would the tabloids give a damn????

Then, its the story bout his drug abuse!
YES! Michael is at fault... Just like his ex-dad-in-law (Elvis)...
You do drugs, you die!
Still, the doctor should not have given him the drugs!
You are a professional... You know your limits and boundaries when treating a patient, no matter how famous that person is!
You simply cannot prescribe drugs for them! Let alone PROPOFOL which is only used in the hospitals!!!!

Next, LEAVE his kids alone!!!
He tried to protect his kids when he was alive...
Mum used to say he was treating his kids like how his dad treated him (The no friends and no going into the open part). BUT! He had to do it! Come on lah! Its Michael Jackson's kids! Any TOM, DICK and HARRY can just suddenly decided to kidnap them!!!!
So, just let them lead a normal life! The court did the correct thing by giving Katherine Jackson full custody! Debbie should not have the kids! No matter if she is the biological mother, she never acted as though she cared!!!

So, there you go.. I've let everything out...
Just let the poor guy rest in peace FINALLY!!!
While he was alive he was hurt by the media, DEAD also mocked by the MEDIA!
A man can only tahan to a certain limit!

So, to all you Michael Jackson haters, HATE him if you want.. Don't mock him and discriminate the guy whom made MUSIC INDUSTRY what it is today!!!

*p/s: NO ONE!!! I REPEAT!!! NO ON CAN DANCE EXACTLY LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON! He created the moves! He moonwalked! And his moves will follow him to the grave (when he is buried).... You can pirate him, replicate him! BUT, never duplicate him!!!!

Sir Alex FERGUSON has to do some SERIOUS LAST MINUTE SHOPPING!!!!

2009-08-20T06:21:00.000-07:00

I have always believed in Sir Alex... And I still do... BUT! He has to do something about the lack of goals at Man United!!!

Firstly... Berbatov is and will always be a LAZY ASS... I still dont know why Sir Alex paid 30million for him!!!
Tevez would have been way worth it!!!

ROONEY... Perfectionist! Nothing can be said bout him.. Just score more goals!!!

Owen??? Hmm.. Rusty! He has an eye for goal, but, his legs tells him otherwise.. COME ON!! Score!!!

Macheda... He is young! He will score soon!

Welbeck... Not really a proven scorer.. come on Welbeck...

So, u see, with no RONALDO and TEVEZ, United really needs a proven goalscorer.. Say.. another Ruud van Nistelrooy???

So, pls Sir Alex... Do something!!

MAN UNITED LOST TO BURNLEY for CRYING OUT LOUD!!!!!!!!

A story on back-stabbing

2009-08-15T23:31:00.000-07:00

I decided to write a short story.. What do ya think bout it!

Alicia was a new girl in school. You know, new kid on the block, got to make new friends and so on...
Alicia was enrolled in Jasper Scardernville High.

She was enrolled in the Pure Science class. There, she found out that her old classmate, Vera from primary school was also a student there. So, 1 friend made, 78 more to go.

Within 5 months, Alicia and Vera became close friends. Alicia also became close with her other classmates such as Tommy, Dickens, Albert, Josh, Annie, Leticia, Joe, and Gerard.

Then, one day, her ART teacher came in and said that they were to open stalls or booths for the upcoming charity event.
Alicia was teamed up with Tommy, Josh, Leticia and Gerard.
Vera teamed up with Dickens, Joe, and 2 student in the class that Alicia never liked!
Albert, Annie and the other classmates made up the balance 13 teams

Alicia's group was to sell handmade crafts and Vera's group was to sell beads and related stuff.

Whenever Alicia's group discussed about their charity plans, Vera would butt in.
Soon, Alicia and Vera made a pact and said that "Let's make this the best Charity Bazaar ever".
We will be the best 2 teams out of the 13 teams!

Vera was to help promote Alicia's stuff and Alicia vice versa.

Everything was set!

Then, on the eve of the Charity Bazaar, Vera's group decided to sabotage Alicia's group!
Alicia wasn't aware of this because she thought of Vera as her close friend. I mean come on, what kind of a friend would wanna hurt another???

Vera asked people to send hate mails to Alicia and her group mates, called them names and so on.
Little did Alicia and her group members know that Vera and her cronies were behind it!!!

Then, somehow, Alicia found out that Vera started it all.
Vera was threatened by Alicia's kindness and creativity!

The best part was, Vera acted as if nothing happened during the whole course of the bazaar.
Alicia knew about it but, just ignored the fact that her close friend BACK-STABBED her!
I mean, for goodness sake... Its a charity bazaar! Not some competition!!!!!! There is no prize because everyone is a winner!!! Its for charity FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!!

During the course of the Charity Event, Alicia and co became closer to their classmates. Justin, Gary, Homer, Jackie, Samatha, Kelvin and Courtney kept them company and they all acted as if they have all been good friends since forever!

Alicia then learned that one can never ever trust their close friends! Because, sooner or later, they will do something bad to you. And it hurts real bad!

Alicia is now close friends Justin, Gary and co because they never ever felt threatened by Alicia and co during the bazaar. Though both groups never talked in class before, the bazaar made them closer to each other...

And to everyone, that is what friendship is all about!
There is no use in sabotaging a friend just because u feel threatened by him/her.
Just do what you do best and try to beat him/her the clean way!
Because, whatever bad tactics you use, it leaves a scar! A deep painful scar that is hard to mend!

* So, what do you think?*

My say on the Community Shield

2009-08-11T04:24:00.000-07:00

Well, congrats to Chelsea... You do not deserve the victory! You guys won because of the BLIND and DOUBLE-STANDARD referee...

When Ballack was "fouled" by EVRA, the ref blew the whistle... United could have scored then, but, PWEEET... foul!!!

Then? Ballack clearly ELBOW'S EVRA... and???? PLAY CONTINUES..... soon, it was GOALLLL to LAMPARD...

What the HELL is wrong with ref's nowadays?????

Then, the ROONEY's goal stood even though it was clearly offside.... (thanks ref)

Where is the consistency! What happened to fair play???? UTTER RUBBISH!!!

Oh ya... Nani's goal was a BLAST... Similar to old Ronaldo... Get well soon Nani... And I can't wait for TOSIC to play...

Come on United.. Let's trash Birmingham City!!!

Man United 0 - 0 Bayern Munich... Where are the goals going to come from??

2009-07-31T09:11:00.000-07:00

Owen could have scored his 5th goal in 6 games... But, he missed...
Rooney as well....
BUT!
As usual... The Man United strikers take their chances for granted!

Gosh, the match against Bayern showed how much United needs a player like Ronaldo/Tevez.

Sir Alex says he is done in the market...
I say " YOU HAVE 60million! Spend it on a proven striker/winger!!!!"
Whom you may ask...
Sergio Aguero? Klaas Jan-Huntelaar (Real Mad-greed reject = That's what u get for joining em"), Douglas Costa? David Villa or Silva???
Ribery would be nice too.. But! 50million?? Will Fergie pay??

Sir Alex cannot the deny the fact that goals are hard to come by now a certain ex-number 7 has left to join the 2nd team in Spain (Barca will always be number 1! go PIQUE!!!).
Hence, GO SHOPPING!!!!

The Bayern match in the Audi Cup has to be the WAKE UP CALL!!!

Review on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

2009-07-30T05:16:00.000-07:00

I am a DIE HARD Harry Potter fan and I am not shy to admit it...
I grew up reading the series, alongside BRILLIANT WORKS by J.R.R.Tolkien...

Movie by movie, I have been disappointed by the the people called "directors" whom have made the Harry Potter series (movie) look like SHIT compared to the books....

As usual, IMPORTANT parts are omitted from the book. The reason?
Director: We can't show everything that's in the thick book! We'll need to make 2 part (movies) out of that freakin' book!

Till date, the best will be Harry Potter and the philosophers stone! BRILLIANTLY done by Chris COLUMBUS!
Number 2 was quite brilliant as well...
3,4 AND ESPECIALLY 5 were a HUGE LET DOWN!!!!
I mean COME ON!!! IT WAS MARIETTA THAT GOT THE DA INTO TROUBLE!
RITA SKEETER IS AN ANIMAGUS.... bla bla bla..
SO MUCH was missing!!!

Back to topic....
Half-Blood Prince was a let down, yet, the humor made it a good movie...
Snape didn't kill Dumbledore and caused him to fall of the balcony! He was lifted up and poof... DEAD!

WHERE IS THE HUGE BATTLE BETWEEN THE ORDER AND DEATH EATERS???

WHAT ABOUT SHOWING HOW JEALOUS HARRY WAS, WHEN HE SAW DEAN WITH GINNY!!! (she is ron's sister... no!) NOTHING!!!

DUMBLEDORE'S FUNERAL???

HIS WAND WAS IN HIS COFFIN!!! NOT IN HIS ROOM, ON THE TABLE!!!!

THE BURROW HAS TOO MANY STRONG ENCHANTMENTS!!! U CAN'T JUST BURN THE BURROW LIKE THAT!!!!

So much was missing... yet, it was the humor and teenage love that made up for the misses...
I just wish (and pray) yates will follow the last book!!!

DONT DISAPPOINT US FANS!!!!

*i will write a less bombarding review when I am up to it... hehe*

Manchester United's Asia Tour 2009 (Malaysia)

2009-07-20T08:47:00.000-07:00

GO GET THE BALL!!!

Anderson, Ferdinand and O'Shea

Finally, I can blog about the two matches Man United played against a selected 11 Malaysian side.

The first match was on the 18th of July, and guess which die hard fan went for the match.... Hehehe..
Yup! I did... I did.. I did see Man United play live for the 2nd time in my life (tweety bird).

Well, the 1st game was a lil bit of a shocker for me..
Because Man United almost drew a very LOW ranking Malaysian side...
I mean, this Malaysian side can't even qualify for any major soccer competitions and they were about to hold the Champions of England, FIFA Club World Cup and Carling Cup to a draw??
I didn't see that coming!

The Bukit Jalil Stadium was packed with an estimated 90,000 fans...
(mind you, there were some uninvited fans such as loserpoo and arse-senal fans)

I had the RM98 tickets which was the 2nd tier (right above the VIP's)
Those who were watching the match with me were Priya, Cassie, Cassie's Mum and Dad.

The match was AWESOME...
1st goal was by ROONEY, then NANI scored a sublime goal that Ronaldo would score by running into the box and smashing a brilliant ball from Rooney!!!

Then, Malaysia shocked the crowd and players when Amir Yahyah scored a spectular shot which went over unexpected Van Der Sar and landed right in the net...
What a GOAL!!!

Till then, it was Malaysia 1 - 2 Man United United had many chances to make the scoreline bigger.
But, as usual, the players didn't take their chances and soon, AMIR YAHYAH scored another goal..
This time via a goalkeeper blunder by Future England NO.1 Ben Foster
. Yahyah silenced the crowd...
I was like "WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED!!!????"

Ferguson being Ferguson then decided it was time to bring on some "goal-poachers" thus on came Macheda, Owen, Tosic and so on...
Owen had many chances to open his Man United account!
Berba was being berbatov, lazy as usual!

2 minutes before the final whistle....
Zooms in Zoran Tosic, the highly rated Serbian and Farizal, the Malaysian keeper trips him... Who reacts fast?
OWEN!!!
GOAL....
The CROWD goes WILD....
OWEN....
OWEN....
OWEN....

Soon, it was over...
I practically lost my voice because I was shouting non-stop!

Still, nothing beats the experience I had at Old Trafford.
Watching Man United play at home (OT) was the best footballing experience ever!!!

The United players applauded the fans...

They went around the field twice, clapping their hands and acknowledging their fans!!! What a sight it was!

*After the match, there was the usual KL traffic jam... I usually take 15 minutes to reach home, but, due to the overload of Man United fans, I actually reached home 1 and a half hours later!!! Gosh! It was HELL*

The second match (or re-match) was held on Monday aka today...
I didn't watch it at the stadium because the kick-off was at 8.45pm!
I would have arrived home at say.. 1am???
And that's not a risk I wanna take in KL!!!

So, Owen and Macheda started up front.
Tosic and Giggs stated as well..
Ben Foster didn't make any blunders.
As a matter in fact, he made many brilliant saves.

Macheda opened the scoring and what an easy goal that was!
2 minutes later, OWEN banked his second Man United goal!
Zoran Tosic gave a long ball into the box, and tall Macheda missed it!
But, wait! Short OWEN was there to put the ball where it belongs...
BEHIND THE GOALKEEPER, AND INTO THE NET!!!!

Malaysia 0 - 2 Man United!!
Similar scoreline with the 1st match?
ya.. kinda

So, the game went on and it ended Malaysia 0 - 2 Man United!!
Anderson, Berbatov and Rooney missed so many chances.
Especially Anderson!
Such a superb ball from O'Shea and he misses it...

So, Man United won both matches played against a selected Malaysian 11...
I have to admit that I am impressed with the Malaysian side...
The potential is there!
They just need to put more effort and make MALAYSIAN FOOTBALL GLORIOUS AGAIN!!! RAJAGOPAL has done a good job...
BUT...
Bear in mind, NO ONE CAN DEFEAT THE TREBLE WINNERS!!!

Below are pics of the match and training session!

The Malaysian team training

Manchester United players training

A loserpoo fan amongst Man United supporters..
That a bold move don't ya think??

*and of cos Singaporean fans*

Sorry bout the scattered pics... hehe...

Man United's ASIA TOUR begins....

2009-07-17T07:28:00.000-07:00

THE FANS GO WILD.....
WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOO...!!!

OH.... It's the Malaysian team....
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

haha... That was the scene at Stadium Bukit Jalil when the training session started...
Fan's including me thought it would be Man United players that would emerge from the dug-out, but, it was the Malaysian selected 11...

As a Malaysian, I have to say, MALAYSIA NEEDS A NEW MOKTHAR BAHARI, SHEEBY SINGH and the other GOLDEN OLDIES that played AWESOME football.. The current crop of players are an embarressment to Malaysians!

The so called selected 11 can't even kick the ball properly!
It was an eye sore watching them train...
I wonder what the MUTV presenter has to say bout it!!
* no offence to the players but I was not impressed at all!*

Still... 30,000 fans turned up for the training session..
And the session was interrupted by uninvited LOSERPOO (Chicken LIVER-POOL) fans suddenly shouting boo.. and holding up a huge LIVERPOOL banner... IDIOTS!

When the Malaysian selected 11 finished their "so called training"...
OUT CAME THE UNITED TEAM...

What a sight it was...
There I was watching Man United train LIVE for the 2ND time in my life!!!
Still, NOTHING beats the experience I had at Old Trafford on 17th february 2006!

OH MY... THAT'S GARY NEVILLE!!!
CARRICK..
FLETCHER...
BERBATOV...
ROONEY....!!!!!!!
MACHEDA....!!!!!!
TOSIC....!!!!!
NANI...
GIBSON...
EVANS...
BEN FOSTER....
KUSZCHAZK...
SCHOLES....
GIGGS...
ANDERSON!!!
EVRA!!!
VAN DER SAR!!!
FER--DI--NAND!!!
and so on..

THE CROWD WENT WILD...
The Man United supporters even did the MEXICAN WAVE..
What a sight it was...
ooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooooooOOOOOOOOO....

All in all, the training session was AWESOME...
United did their usual runs, exercises and so on...
Just like I remember em' at Old Trafford...

The only sad part was that there was no Autograph session!!
come on!!
I went all the way to the UK, to watch them play at HOME (OLD TRAFFORD) and I didn't get an autograph!
They come to my country AND STILL NO AUTOGRAPH????

Fergie says ENOUGH in the transfer market

2009-07-14T04:08:00.000-07:00

I sure hope Sir Alex knows what he is doing...
Sir Alex says that his summer spending spree has come to an end.
Who have Man United signed so far?
Antonio Valencia (Future Ronaldo?),
Michael Owen (SCORE GOALS and STOP GETTING INJURED)
and
Gabriel Obertan (Looks strikingly like Obama)

Fergie has no more targets in the transfer market so United fans will have to settle with the 3 new signings...
As a United fan, I want to see at least another signing...
A STRIKER!!!

Currently Man United only has ROONEY, BERBATOV (lazy ass), OWEN (injury-prone), MACHEDA (future BOY WONDER) and WELBECK...
Owen has to stop getting injured. If he does, he will be a sensational signing!
Macheda is young... But, he sure knows ow to score AMAZING GOALS!
Wellbeck.. Well... Not a fan...

Fergie should try signing someone like Sergio Aguero!

No Ronaldo? No problem!
United has Tosic, Nani, Park and Valencia...
Still, if it were possible, I would love to see Douglas Costa in a United shirt!

Man United's current squad is GREAT! But, come on... We just lost RONALDO...
It's going to be hard without Ronaldo...

Fergie, just try and sign Costa or Aguero...
P.L.E.A.S.E!!!

AND...

CAN'T WAIT TO CATCH YOU GUYS THIS SATURDAY AT STADIUM BUKIT JALIL!!

1 week semester break... And it was 85% on MJ!!! I need to get life!

2009-07-13T00:53:00.000-07:00

Who knew the passing of Michael Jackson would affect me greatly?
I mean, 3 of my fav songs (top 10) are "Heal the World", "Black or White" and "Man in the Mirror".
I only knew MJ because of my dad who is 60's - 80's crazy music fan!
*Dad loves Kenny Rogers, ABBA, Bee Gees, Beatles, Carpenters, and the dude who sang "BONANZA" and "ROLLING.. ROLLING... ROLLING, ROW HIGH", and etc*

The 1st song my dad introduced to me was Thriller... Loved it but didn't make my top 10 list of fav songs! hehe...

The memorial like I've mentioned earlier touched me. For once everyone said 100% positive things about Michael and not the usual crap of "Molester", "Pervert", "Gay" and so on.

Throughout my 1 week semester break I thought I could get a head start at my piling assignment...
But, NO!
I was glued to the tele, radio, and internet to gather every bit of info on MJ.
Was kind of a underground paparazi really...
*Even dad wasn't that fanatic like me*

If I was watching the TV, it would have been CNN, E!, MTV or [V].
Can you believe it that I skipped WIMBLEDON TO WATCH NEWS AND VIDEO CLIPS OF MJ???
I SKIPPED TENNIS!!! DAMN!!!!

If I were online, i would go to AC360.COM, EONLINE, THESUN.CO.UK, NEWS OF THE WORLD and so on...
Really no life wei!!!

Still, it wasn't all bout MJ...
Manage to go shopping twice... hehe..
Bought 2 new VOIR t-shirts, 1 ti:zed t-shirt, 1 Cheetah Ladies tee, B.U.M Equipment watch, and so on...

I also went to Adrian's 21st b'day party!
Wah... Drank VODKA nicely ah?
1 whole bottle of VODKA!!!

Then, I sat down and watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on HBO, Princess Diaries, Wimbledon highlights... etc..

That was my week..
Boring old week filled with nothing but MJ, MJ and more MJ!!!

I want to be obssessed with Jonas Bro's, Avril and MCR again!!!!

Oh ya..
MAN UNITED will TRASH Malaysia's selected 11 THIS SATURDAY!!!
Who cares if there's no RONALDO and TEVEZ!
United will always be MAN UNITED!!!

Tribute to KING OF POP and BEST ENTERTAINER THERE EVER WAS!!!! The late MICHAEL JACKSON........

2009-07-08T00:19:00.001-07:00

I was not even born when Michael Jackson did the moonwalk!
I was born in 1989, way after the moonwalk and THRILLER!
YET!
I became a Michael Jackson fan along the way... How? My dad! The greatest dad I will ever have!

When I was young, dad used to play songs by Michael Jackson, Elvis, The Carpenters, ABBA, The Beatles, Bee Gees, Cat Stevens, Kenny Rogers and so much more!

I was attracted to one particular artist! Michael Jackson!
The man could dance! He sang songs that made me want to dance!
That was Michael Jackson!

Through the years, I grew up and left the "old' songs behind. I grew interested in bands like Westlife, Backstreet Boys, Boyzone and the other 90's bands..
Michael Jackson and co. were a thing of the past for me.
YET! I still listened to MJ's songs!, only when my parents played his albums.

The title 'KING OF POP" truly suits him!
He changed the music industry!
Soon, I got attached back to MJ's songs! (and some by Elvis like return to sender, blue suade shoes,and I did it my way and so on) because my dad kept playing MJ, ELVIS and BEATLES songs all the time!!! Once you hear em again, you fall in love with the songs again!

Then, I went through the same phase again when I felt MJ's songs were just songs of the past. Most likely I got sick of my parents playing his records non-stop! Mum and dad always said (and still do) Our generation was the best! There is only one band we like in your generation -WESTLIFE- because they sing old and slow songs...

Still, there were times when I just had to hear Michael Jackson's songs!
I just can't get enough of him! No matter how many times the songs played over and over again, I would say bye bye and come back running again!!!

MJ has been a phenomenon while he was alive!
Sure there we ups and downs... Sometimes I believe the tabloids when they said "MJ was a molester". But, I soon came to my senses! This is a Humanitarian that "these people" are accusing!
He loved kids! I doubt he would have done anything to them! *This is my opinion*

Then there was the case where he carried "blanket" aka Prince Michael Jackson II out of on the balcony! If it were a normal person, the press would do nothing!
Anything Michael did was wrong in the eyes of the press! And a naive girl like me believe them and cast doubt over Michael!

I learned my lesson that do not believe the tabloids 100% because most of it is trash talk!

The Memorial was truly the best way anyone can think off in terms of sending off the KING OF POP! The stage was his! It was his final "curtain call"!
He deserved it! We owed it to him!

Off all the performances that were done as a tribute, I was touched and moved and eventually ended up in buckets of tears because of :
1. Usher's "Gone Too Soon"
2. Jermaine's "Smile"
3. Shaheen's performance
4. When those concerned sang "We are the world" and "Heal the World". My fav MJ song is and will forever be "Heal the World".

Why 1?
Usher was the only one who actually came down and touched Michael's coffin! And he truly idolized Michael! What a moment it must have been for him!

Why 2?
Jermaine is after all MJ's big brother! He sang his lil bro's fav song! Imagine you singing at your younger relative especially siblings funeral (or in MJ's case- Memorial).
I can never do that! I would have been too heart-broken to even say a single word!

Why 3?
This 12 year old from UK (Wales) sang his heart out... It was as though watching the lil Michael in the Jackson 5 or the Michael that sang BEN! It was the perfect way to pay tribute to MJ, by having a youngster sing for him!

Why 4?
Come one... Michael's best works! "We are the world and Heal the world". And everyone sang it... Especially the Jacksons! They all sang along! It was a beautiful sight.

Lastly, I was moved by PARIS, MJ's only daughter! What she said moved me to tears instantly! I was surprised I had tears left! Aunt Janet hugged her and comforted her. It was the 1st time many heard her voice!
And all this talk about MJ not being their dad... HELLO! Look at her! She has her fathers looks! Even "Blanket" who was always hiding behind big bro Prince the 1st and aunt La Toya looks like Michael! Don't see the resemblance in Prince the 1st yet, but no doubt his dad is MJ!

The speeches were also touching and funny! Queen Latifah reading a poem and saying how she and her bro would try to imitate the Jackson 5; Basketball LEGEND Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant (soon to be a legend) giving speeches-I loved Magic's "You eat Kentucky Fried Chicken?"; Brooke Shields who was A LOOOOONG TIME BUDDY of MJ's and so many more!!

All in all, IT WAS THE PERFECT MEMORIAL FOR THE KING OF POP... The KING so loved by all, no matter BLACK, WHITE, ASIAN or LATINO!
Like the pastor said " The King of POP has gone to bow to the KING OF KINGS"

I would put it this way----
GOD the ALMIGHTY already have THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL (Elvis Presley aka former father-in-law of Michael Jackson via ex wife Lisa Marie Presley). He wanted the KING OF POP to join him in Heaven. Thus, GOD took him!

Like MJ's favourite song says " SMILE"

Don't be sad and cry! Be happy and rejoice for MJ is now in a better place.. We will miss him YES! But, we still have his songs and videos and memories! Treasure them!

Rest In Peace Michael!!!

Michael Owen to replace Carlos Tevez? I sure hope Fergie knows what he is doing..

2009-07-04T20:41:00.000-07:00

Manchester United have officially sign Michael Owen, the former Loserpool, REALLY MAD and GREEDY (REAL madrid) and Newcastle player.

Is he an ideal signing? Not to me... But, he can be if he stops getting injured!!!
United needs another class striker! Either Sergio Aguero or Luis Fabiano! We need one!

There's also news that United are to sign an ITALIAN wonderkid.
Did I mention that United have sign a 16 year old from Charlton!

THE FUTURE LOOKS DARN BRIGHT FOR UNITED!

DAVID GILL... sign Douglas Costa, David Silva and Sergio Aguero!!!

OWEN, you can be a united GREAT... just dont get injured and play like the striker we know you are- just like your LIVERPOOL days!

United lost RONALDO "their best player", and 3 potential targets who could have replaced him! DAVID GILL! DO SOMETHING!!!!!!

2009-07-02T03:20:00.000-07:00

ARGH!!!

I AM ONE UNHAPPY UNITED FAN!!!

UNITED SOLD RONALDO FOR 80million pounds! and lost CARLOS TEVEZ thanks to Berbatov.

And whom have United signed so far? ANTONIO VALENCIA!
THAT'S ALL!!

Bloody REAL have snapped up 3 potential Ronaldo replacements : KAKA, BENZEMA and RIBERY.

GALACTICO's PART 2?? haha... DREAM ON!

Sure hope DAVID GILL will do something.. GILL!!! WAKE UP!!! DO SOME TRANSFER ACTIVITY!!!

Sign Sergio Aguero from Ath. Madrid and David Silva from Valencia!

WE NEED THESE TWO WORLD CLASS PLAYERS BADLY!!!!!

Valencia in... Who else?

2009-07-01T08:41:00.000-07:00

So, the deal has been confirmed..
Antonio Valencia from Ecuador is finally a MANCHESTER UNITED player...

It must have been a huge relief for Fergie that he penned for United instead of greeding, money spending, talent destroying REAL!

Valencia can never replace RONALDO.. Ronaldo was Ronaldo....
Valencia can however be the new winger that United needs badly since ungrateful RON left to ruin his career in MAD-RID!
He might not score goals but hey, he is one fighter on the field!

Hope to see ya in Malaysia!

Who else is going to walk through the gates of Old Trafford or Carrington Ground to sign for United?

Well, looks like DAVID VILLA is a no-go. He won't leave Valencia.
How bout David Silva? He's pretty good. Will United try for Silva?
Next,
BENZEMA!
Rumours said he was bound for UNITED, then suddenly, it was REAL!

Real Madrid wants to sign a whole new 1st 11 ? Isn't their current squad enough?
They bought Huntelaar, Saviola, Robben, Higuan and so on... And now, they're going to be sold? BAH!
That's what you get for being money minded!
JOIN REAL and you not only get sold or swaped for another player but, your standard drops!
Looks at Saviola! He is not the Saviola I knew in Barcelona!
REAL destroyed him!!!

So, GOOD LUCK RONALDO and ALBIOL.. u're gonna need it..
Soon, everyone will say "Where's Ronaldo now.. You will be like the Brazilian RONALDO!!!"

So, if no Benzema... WHO?

The next best player will be Sergio Aguero..
Yeah! He will cost alot.. say... $52million!
But, he will be worth it..

Again.. It all depends on Fergie..

Oh ya...

SIGN DOUGLAS COSTA!
AND
GUISEPPE ROSSI (i heard his contract talks at Villareal has stalled)
& if possible (I highly doubt)
GERARD PIQUE!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY OUT IN KLCC.... includes a 30minute black-out while watching TRANSFORMERS 2!

2009-06-27T07:22:00.001-07:00

Woke up at 9am...
HAD Berapit aka PENANG authentic CURRY MEE for breakfast..
Left house at 10.45am.
NO PETROL!!! had to stop at PETRONAS to pump fuel...
Reached the LRT Station... coincidently, met Krishna on the train.. We were to meet up at Masjid Jamek.. what luck!
Then, we headed to KLCC...

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen only had a few seats left..
We bought the second row from the front.
Met up with Haz, shopped at MNG, News.com, and RotiBoy.
Had lunch at BURGER KING!
*Haz made a fool of herself as usual*

Then, it was movie time...
We snucked in Burger King refill drinks! hehe.. saved money!!!
Movie stated....

Suddenly!!!!!!!! AFTER 1 hour and 50 minutes!!!

BLACK-OUT!!!
"OI!! REFUND LAH"
"WAT DA F**K LAH"
"WE BETTER GET DISCOUNT ON OUT NEXT FILM AH"
"U CALL THIS QUALITY ENTERTAINMENT AH?"

You wonder what the cinema personal told us audience right?
This were his exact words!
"Please remind sit"

HELLO!!!!
YOUR ENGLISH SUCKS WEI!!
ITS "PLEASE REMAIN SEATED"

I took this oppotunity to head to the loo..
1/2 the audience went to the loo..

Then only did we all find out that there was a massive black-out!
had to use my NOKIA5800 light to light up the toilet cubicle...
Their back-up light was more of a romantic dinner light!!!

So, I went back to the teather and shouted "STUPID BLACK-OUT LAH! CANNOT TELL ZIT"
Us audience thought the film had been cut or stopped due to technical problems or something!!

The movie was AWESOME.. It has to be the best movie of 2009!
Just waiting for Harry Potter to out-do Transformers..
*I will blog about Transformers in a seperate blog*

After the whole chaotic day, the 3 of us headed to VITACARE...
Then, had tea and dinner (at 7pm) in Secret Recepi...
Next stop, ISETAN..

After leaving KLCC at approx 8PM, me and krish jumped the PUTRA LINE.
We detoured at Plaza Rakyat..
I BOUGHT MY TICKET TO RETURN TO PENANG THIS WEEK!!! WOO HOO!!!

So, that was my day!
I'm sleepy so thats why I haven't elaborated much!
Do forgive me!!
NITEZ!!!!

From a football fan to REAL MADRID

2009-06-25T03:49:00.000-07:00

STOP TAKING ALL THE BEST AND UPCOMING PLAYERS IN THE WORLD...

Look at Javier Saviola... Where is he now?? Such a talent wasted! Why sign him when u already had Ruud, Raul, and the rest???
Next, Klaas Huntelaar... He is suffering in MAD-GREED!

Stop signing every player in the world that could be a potential threat to u if they signed for another club u greedy PIGS!!!

Man United never signed MESSI, or KAKA...
They sign players that will be given the chance to actually play football and not warm the bench 24/7!

United wanted Ribery.. REAL now want Ribery
United want Villa... REAL want VILLA..
United want BENZEMA... Now, REAL want BENZEMA
United want to sign Marianne Tan, REAL wanna sign Marianne Tan too??

CAN U GUYS STOP SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY ON PLAYER, JUST SO THEY CAN GO TO REAL TO WARM THE BENCH AND SOONER OR LATER FORGET HOW TO EVEN KICK THE BALL??????
THIS IS SICK!

PLATINI AND BLATTER!
STOP THIS NUISANCE... IT'S DISTURBING!
NO MATTER HOW MANY WORLD CLASS PLAYER REAL MAD-GREED SIGN, BARCA WILL BE 110% BETTER THAN THEM!

Taylor Lautner finally recognised!

2009-06-24T08:51:00.000-07:00

I thought Taylor Lautner was cute in CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN 2 whereby he played Eliot Murtaugh. He and Alyson Stoner (Sarah Baker) liked each other... It was so cute!
I love that movie! Especially with Steve Martin being the wacky dad, Tom Welling the eldest son and so on..

Now? Taylor Lautner has grown up and he is a PHENOMENON!! All because he got the part of Jacob Black in TWILIGHT... It's so nice to see him playing a bigger role.. and best of all.. He has a shirtless scene! LOLxx...

*Taylor Lautner looks hotter when he has short hair.....

It's coming!!! PRE-ORDER NOW!!!

2009-06-23T04:23:00.000-07:00

Yup! The new Manchester United HOME KIT has been unveiled.. sort of... The image is a bit dark, so you can't really see how it looks like...

The new kit will be available from 1st JULY... And.... They players will wear it during their ASIA TOUR which starts in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia... Guess who is going... ME!!!
So, I might get my hands on the jersey! If my dad says I can... "You've got 3! And one of it is from the OLD TRAFFORD MEGASTORE!!! Isn't it enough????"

Click the link below to have a look at the new strip!
http://www.manutd.com/newsletters/220609_UK_Kittease.html

Oh ya.. Tevez is officially a MAN CITY player (what an idiot)... And United are closing in on Douglas Costa (the new C.Ronaldo and Ronaldinho), Dodo, and Antonio Valencia...
Looks like there will be no BENZEMA this season!!! HAIHZ... WE NEED A CLASS SIGNING!!

Think!

2009-06-22T10:06:00.000-07:00

Do you spend more money when there is a sale or not?
I personally think and belief that I tend to spend more money on shopping when there's sale.. U name it.. JUSCO sale, Parkson Grand Sale, etc...
WHY?

Its like when u fast...
Perday you spend say an average of RM10 on lunch plus dinner per-person.
When you fast the whole day, when its time to break fast, u spend more that what you spend everyday which is MORE THAN RM10... why?

THINK!

and.................................. KATHERINE HEIGL returns to GREYS ANATOMY!!!

2009-06-21T08:16:00.000-07:00

yes!!! Dr IZZIE STEVENS is BACK!!! Katherine Heigl is rumoured to play a huge part in Grey's Anatomy's Season 6! Yes... Don't leave Alex (played by Justin Chambers)!!! Another good news is that Callie's love interest (lesbian partner) Dr. Arizona will be a permenant character in Greys! Welcome to the club!!!!

Sadly, there will be no more George O'Malley as T.R.Knight has confirmed he will play no more part in the Grey's series...

Well, I for one can't wait to watch the new season! I wonder if Izzie will live or not... And, will Meredith and Derek officially get married? Also, Mark Sloan and lil Grey to tie the knot as well??

Pathetic Ronaldo... REGRET MUCH???

2009-06-21T07:36:00.000-07:00

Last week he said this " I want to be hated" and bla bla bla.. Pratically everything he said about the club that made him "WHO HE IS TODAY aka WORLD PLAYER OF THE YEAR" was negative.

NOW?? He says the opposite!
"Sir Alex was a father to me"... "Everything I am today I owe to him"... "When he brought me in he gave me the number 7 shirt, I said I can't accept it, He said I have faith in you boy"... Now playing nice eh RON??? U BLOODY HYPOCRYTE!!!

GET LOST! no need to sweet talk FERGIE.. U have our blessing (including fans) to go to REAL and destroy your career there... You will regret it... I know it's been a boyhood dream to play for REAL, but, leaving now?? BIG MISTAKE!

And stop sweet talking!

Fathers Day POEM for My DAD!

2009-06-20T03:02:00.000-07:00

This is a poem dedicated to all fathers, especially my daddy!

A girl no matter big or little needs her Daddy,
For many, many things no matter big or small:
Like carrying her to her bedroom, when she falls asleep on his arms,
Like being her body guard, that protects her from danger and harm,
Like being there for her when she awakens frantic and scared in the terrors of the night due to a nightmare,
Like being her personal doctor and nurse, when she falls sick or hurt herself,
Like being her role model, when she needs someone to look up to,
And even being her crying shoulder when she is down and blue.

This will be the 1st year I am not celebrating Fathers Day with my DAD... Because I'm stuck in PATHETIC KL!!!

Happy Fathers day too all FATHERS....

2 more weeks till my 1 week semester break!!!

2009-06-19T02:50:00.000-07:00

I CAN'T WAIT..... 1 WEEK OF PURE RELAXING, ASTRO-ING, and hopefully PS3-ing!!

sadly, I can't.. GOT QSS ASSIGNMENT DUE THE WEEK AFTER...
ITS A SEMESTER BREAK!!! LET US RELAX!!!

Should United accept Tevez's "greedy terms"? and who are the possible arrivials at the Teather of Dreams?

2009-06-19T00:32:00.000-07:00

According to TheSun.co.uk (I love reading this paper, sadly when I was in England, I had to read the Daily Telegraph), TEVEZ is asking Man United to make him the highest paid player in the club! thats 120,000pounds per week!!!

Will United accept the demands??? That's the same they pay Rio Ferdinand and Dimitar Berbatov.
My opinion? YES!!! He does not score much goals, but, heck, he scores important goals and he is a terrier on the field.. We need someone like him to fire up the squad because there's no more RONALDO!!!!

WHO WILL ARRIVE thanks to the 80 million from RONALDO'S sale and 20million from the GLAZERS?

Well, I'm going for Antonio Valencia, Karim Benzema, and if possible, David Villa...

Karim Benzema is a must buy! FERGIE has been admiring and following him for the past 2 years... It's about time we signed the lad.. He is 20++, young, skillful and above all... SCORES GOALS!!!!

David Villa is another (if can A MUST BUY). This lad (all though he is 27) can replace Ronaldo on the flanks. HE IS QUICK and who says a spaniard can play the Premier League pace?? HELLO! Look at TORRES, CESC, ALONSO and previously PIQUE! Villa would be a regular starter. Thesun and a few others claim that VILLA has already made up him mind on where he will play next season... I HOPE IT IS UNITED... Don't join the REAL REVELUTION!

*also, looks like RONALDO is getting way greedy too.. 80million transfer signing making him the most expensive player in the world, and a huge pay-check perweek is not enough for the (back-stabber). He wants to add to that 55% image rights as well!! WELL DONE MADRID, U HAVE A WINKER, DIVER, PLAYBOY, AND A GREEDY ARSE!

*I think Tevez is being greedy os SAF will play him more next season! SIGN HIM FERGIE... IF BERBETOV is valued 30million and 120,ooo pounds per week, TEVEZ is worth it too!!!

This week

2009-06-14T05:20:00.000-07:00

Well.. It's been one helluva week all right...
There was the Ronaldo transfer-saga (RONALDO JUST GO!!! WE WANT THE 80 million NOW!!!)
Then, there was the Ronaldo-Paris *beep*...
And... of course... The weekend with my cousins...

The was a big gathering (Steam Boat) at my uncle's place on Friday. Families present: Joe alone, Vic and co, Vince and co, Sebastian and co.
Had fun.... The cousins (all younger than me) bullied me to the max... Throw stuff at me... Kick me... Used their light-saber on me.. So much la... I was like a PINATA to them... poor me

Still, I had fun bullying them.. We watched Stuart Little 2 (I wanted Star Wars majority voted for lil mice story)...

Today we all went to the National Science Center... I've been there 3 times already!!! once with family twice courtesy of a school trip. 90% of the exhibition there were just like I remember them in 2006! The new addition was a robotics exhibition! Thats all!!!
Still.. It was dun watching the kids (and some kiddish adults) go MAD when they saw the exhibits...

Well, that was my weekend... Wanna watch Angels and Demons.. I can't seem to get over Ewan McGregor!!!!

WHERE IS PLATINI NOW????

2009-06-11T05:41:00.000-07:00

I recall a certain UEFA PRESIDENT aka Michel Platini saying that FOOTBALL clubs that spend obsured amount of money on players will not be allowed to play in the Champions League... He said it last year.. And my memory never fails me..

He said it and targeted the English clubs aka Chelsea, Man United, Man City and Loserpool...

Now?? 62 MILLION on KAKA... and 80 MILLION ON CRY BABY RONALDO??? thats 142million pounds on 2 human beings!!!

What have you got to say bout this Platini... You can nicely target and KUTUK the English teams... BUT? Nothing said to the Spanish teams??? HYPOCRYTE much!!!!

I WANT TO SEE JUSTICE.... EXECUTE WHAT YOU HAVE SAID...!! DONT JUST TALK... WALK THE DARN TALK!!!

*80 MILLION IS A LOT OF MONEY... REAL ARE SERIOUSLY WASTING THEIR MONEY ON RONALDO.. they only want him for advertising purposes... Just like Becks..

MSG TO ronaldo.. Once you leave United, you are not the same player again... Need to refresh your memory??
LOOK AT BECKHAM, HEINZE AND VAN NISTELROOY..

Manchester United does not need a money minded selfish arse like you!

2009-06-11T03:49:00.000-07:00

Yeah! you heard me right!
RONALDO... Go and ROT in FAKE MAD-GREED!!!!
Follow the likes of Beckham, Ruud and Heinze... you can forget everything you ever learned from Fergie and Queroz.

I can't stand money minded football players...
You do not control a football club.. you are just a freakin' player.. get it??

and United will survive without you.. There's Rooney, Tosic, Nani, Anderson, Gibson, Possebon, Macheda and so on!

GO TO REALLL... GET LOST...

You were a hero.. thanks for everything you did... BUT, you will never be a LEGEND...
you will always be a diver, winker and sore loser.... *add cry baby too*

Looking for Eric

2009-06-04T05:22:00.000-07:00

Looking for Eric???
What am I talking about???

Well... THE GREAT ERIC CANTONA'S NEW MOVIE... that's what I'm talking about!!!

This movie is about a postman whose life is not going down so well, ERIC, who meets his Idol, ERIC CANTONA (played by Eric Cantona himself). He learns many things from Cantona...

There was Beckham with Goal, now Cantona with Looking for Eric...

It looks like a good movie... It will hit the cinema's in JUNE 2009 (doubt it will be showed in Malaysia... DOWNLOAD!!!)

Here's a link to read more about the upcoming movie..

Or you can just google it...

Day out with friends (MAD friends)... really.. I mean it!!!

2009-06-03T05:33:00.000-07:00

It was a normal day, whereby a normal boring life was taking place for me.
Typical college student waking up at 6.30am (haha... ya right... alarm will try so hard to wake me up but, somehow, I'll end up waking up at 7am) so she can be ready by 7.30pm, then, leave home by 7.40am so she won't get caught in the morning MRR2 jam (sadly, no matter how early I leave, I'll end up getting caught in the stupid jam!!!!)

Her college day starts with a BORING AND HEADACHE-FULL lecture with a lecturer who just loves to pump Mathematics and Statistics into the students brain without realizing that the students brain capacity is about to EXPLODE!!!!!

Teacher (T): Class, we are going to continue where we left off. Times Series.
Class (C): Owh no!!! Die lah..
T: Ok... Do this.... Then this... Owh... Now this... Then, minus this... bla bla bla..

HELLO.... We really don't understand what you are trying to say...
The more you try to make us understand, the more confused we get..
Sorry, but, your teaching methods don't work on us Generation late-X, and early-Y.

So, we did the exercise and I was so lost... Luckily I had my notes as reference... If not??
Well, that will be another story...

As class was about to finish, I sms-ed Munir to ask him if the gang wanna have lunch somewhere. He replied. The venue was set (LUNCH BOX).

BUT.....

I didn't go...

hehee...

Instead, I went with Nara, Chii Min, Soo Teng, Zhee Leng and Vivian to Vivian's place....
We all cramped in her Honda City...

We soon reached Vivi's place and we setteled down...
Vivi's Internet connection was superb so I decided to check my facebook, imperiaonline, and hotmail for about 15 minutes.

Next, we went to Overseas Restaurant to have Dim Sum for brunch.
Ordered quite alot!!
We talked and talked.
We were also talking about a possible trip to Penang Island (mua hometown).
The bill came up to RM96. We each paid RM16.20. (Zhee Leng had her own homepacked lunch).

Soon, we were heading back to college for Jojo sir's class (Business and Communicating Skills).

On the way, there were 2 police checks.
The 1st one was nothing as the police personal was just hanging out in his car. More like skipping work!!!!
The next police check was really funny.
There was four of us at the back (Zhee Leng, Soo Teng, Me and Nara).
So, malas wanna wear seatbelt.
Then, ROAD-BLOCK....
We were all rushing to wear the seatbelt...

Nara: Marianne, your having mine!!!
Marianne (me): Hahahha... Sorry... Rushing lah..
Soo Teng: Just hurry up lah!!!

We all ended up laughing cos Soo Teng instead of putting on a seatbelt, dived to the bottom of the car!!! She was literally lying down on our feet!!!
We were laughing like CRAZY!!! I even cried...
People will normally rush to have the belts on, but, Soo Teng? She goes down... haha...
Funny fellow..
And... Marketing lecturer said class on Monday was canceled.. YAY!!! Balik Penang!!!

Then, we reached UCTI and headed for Jojo's class..
On the way, we were teasing Soo Teng who is very afraid of Ghosts...
I am too, but not as bad as her!
We were in the lift... Quite a ramshakeled looking lift if you ask me..
Suddenly vivian said Z...Z....Z (pronounced zee) and... Soo Teng screams. Like she saw a ghost!
We laughed like mad... My stomach was aching!!!
The two workers in the lift must have thought that we were drunk or something (rest assured, we were not drunk!! Just laughing maniacally!!!

Had to do Business letter.... haihz...
Good news letter, Bad news letter and Persuasion letter..

After that, I headed straight for Pudu Station... Need to get the tickets to go back home to Penang this weekend!!!
Luckily, not many people were heading to the direction I was heading to. I got the tickets!!

At 3.15pm, I was back in UCTI/APIIT.
Met Nara... She was watching RACE!
I sms-ed Prem.
We exchaged movies and series...

Then, headed to Dhason (baby)'s class...
Learned on HCI...

FINALLY...
My Wednesday college day ended with me getting caught in the 6pm MRR2 traffic jam.. DAMN... Why lah!!!

THE END...

Angels and Demons

2009-06-02T03:45:00.000-07:00

Hahaha..
Finally i'm blogging on the movie I was anticipating so much since JANUARY...

So, after much begging and insisting, me and a couple of friends finally decided to go and watch Angels and Demons...

I have to say, the movie was AWESOME... Ewan McGregor was the perfect CAMERLENGO PATRICK MCKENNA.... He nailed the part.... (Still, I think he looked better as Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars 1-3)... Such a handsome priest in the Catholic Church.. haihz.. LOLxx

The killings were well described.... No disappointment for fans like me..

BUT! there is always a but!!!

The director didn't explain why the Camerlengo killed the Pope (aka Holy Father)..
He killed the POPE because the POPE was his REAL LIFE BIOLOGICAL father....
YES!!! But, through in-vitro and not sex!
The ex-pope kept his vow... He was so in love with a nun, that they both had a child, but, not through a biological means because they had to keep their virginity (the catholic church says so).
That was why the Camerlengo killed him, and brought up the whole ILLUMINATI thingy!!!

Still, I enjoyed the movie... Tom Hanks did quite well too, but, the man was Ewan McGregor...

I'll give the movie 4 1/2 star... They lost 1/2 because they didn't explain why the pope was killed.... It seemed like the Camerlengo killed the Pope and did the whole safe the Vatican thingy so he could be pope... RUBBISH!!!!!

Next on my movie list is.... Transformers 2 and the much anticipated HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE!!!!

Why Pique... WHY??

2009-06-02T03:37:00.000-07:00

Well, it's almost a week since United lost to Barcelona in the Champions League final in ROME..
United played like SHIT!!! I admit it... We were playing like SMALL KIDS~~~
What happened?? WRONG TACTICS BY SIR ALEX......

Still, congrats to BARCA..

AND...

I can't believe it.... One of the reasons why we lost was because of MY SAYANG GERARD PIQUE..
He was DARN good in defence... When wanna score, he was there to block, head the ball away and so on... HE WAS A SOLID DEFENDER... I hope now SIR ALEX regrets selling my beloved PIQUE to Barcelona...

PIQUE and EVANS was to be the FUTURE VIDIC and FERDINAND......

why did SAF sell him???? WHY????

Haihz... Im still sore bout us losing, but, my head is still up...
United did the treble, an amazing feat I doubt any other club in the world can do (that includes Ancelotti's Chelsea)...

United till I die, eventhough we lost cos of my PIQUE...

read a fellow blogger's short story

2009-05-25T07:23:00.001-07:00

http://meeshell-tonne.blogspot.com/

read it!!!!

LOL... football again... My team selection was almost spot on!

2009-05-24T19:37:00.000-07:00

hehe... Guess I'm good at choosing the starting 11 for Manchester United.

And... Thanks Darren Gibson for that 30-yard goal... Brilliant...

So, I'm guessing poor Newcastle, West Brom and Middlesborough are GOING DOWN TO PLAY IN THE COCO-COLA CHAMPIONSHIP! lolz... Carbonated Drink League... haha

Lets see Alan Shearer and Gareth Southgate bring their clubs back up next season...

It's quite saddening to see Newcastle go down... They were always on the top half of the table... and now? relegated!

Middlesborough?? Well, what can I say? Steward Downing just remain with Middlesborough, then get back to the Premier League... Don't move to Man City, Loserpool or even Tottenham... Just stay!!!

The Season finale of Gossip Girl

2009-05-24T19:08:00.000-07:00

Well, Greys is over, and so is Gossip Girl...

Season 2 was very interesting indeed...

DAN
Dan sleeps with a teacher (not his, Blair's and Serena's).
He got into YALE but ends up in NYU cos he was considered not 'needy enough' for college funds.
Serena ends up in jail because of him, and he bails her out.

SERENA
She finds out that Dan is seeing Miss Car (Her teacher)
Tells Blair...
She goes to Paris with Poppy and ends up "getting married" to Gabriel...
Gabriel only wanted her for her mothers money, then says, he actually fell in love with her.
Found out she got into Yale because she was famous with the tabloids.
Went traveling to find out about her dad(real dad-van der Woodsen).
Finds out that Chuck really loves Blair, and Blair loves him too...
Ends up in Brown (her dream uni)

BLAIR
Well, she always has revenge on her mind.... Typical Queen Bee.
She's still in love with Chuck all though she's with Nate...
Could have been at YALE, but, screwed it up with Miss Carr...
Always trying to help Serena (example with Gabriel and Poppy case) but, well, Serena ends up in jail...

NATE
Breaks up with Vanessa... I mean, wow, he's dated all the 4 top women in Gossip Girl.. No wonder gossip girl calls him a wh**e...
He slept with an older woman so he could get money!
He was broke no thanks to his dad "The Captain"
Reunited ties with his Granddad
Took the job at the Mayor's office then decides to go traveling with Vanessa

CHUCK
well, well, Bad boy Chuck Bass
His dad died, He became a BILLIONAIRE. Spent money on girls (for sex), and so on.
Loves Blair, but to macho to admit it... In the last episode he does say that he loves her (4 TIMES)
He is adopted by Lily (step mum)
Fought with his uncle on whom shall get his dad's company

Those are on the main characters...

Now, I'll say talk on the overall of the season finale..

Basically, it was a nice episode.
Graduation day, and Gossip Girl does her best to screw that perfect day for the seniors...

Serena gets so upset that Gossip Girl gets all the scoop and tells everyone about it.
She tries to find out who is gossip girl..
Ends up in a fight with Blair

In the end, Guess who is 'Gossip Girl'..............................

ITS EVERYONE WHO KEEPS SENDING Messages to Gossip Girl.

LOL... i kind of expected that!!

it was a nice season...

Next blog will be on How I met Your Mother, 17 again, Hannah Montana the Movie, and..... ANGELS and DEMONS!!!!

The season finale of Greys Anatomy

2009-05-24T18:53:00.000-07:00

Well, I have to say this, and I ain't really proud of it.... ^I CRIED WATCHING THE SEASON FINALE OF GREYS!!^

I mean, I know that Katherine Heigl(Izzie) wants to leave the cast, and that if she leave George will leave too... Okay... FINE..

BUT!!

To kill off both characters in such a way??? Dang!!! The writers have no heart for the fans!!!

I though George was saying bye bye to Greys by signing up as a military doctor is Iraq(episode 24/25).
Then... He becomes the patient who saved a woman's life and was hit by a bus... Later known as "John Doe".... He was gruesome.... Blood everywhere... Euuww...
Next thingy you know, he writes "007" on Meredith's palm and it's... tada.. GEORGE O'MALLEY!

I knew Izzie was going to die coz of the cancer... I mean, its pretty late to safe her..
I thought the memory loss was torture enough for us fans, but, what happends?
She regains her memory, and DIES.....

Sweat man!!!

Why kill off 2 characters like that??? And George.. poor george..

Meredith and Derek got married the day two friends went to the 'other side'...

Well, the last scene shows Izzie taking the elevator... I though she was going to see Danny. But, who knew, George was waiting for her, all dressed up in his army uniform... *he looked good*
And, she had a few doubts or some sort in the ending and "THE END"... season 5 has ended...

Well, it was an amazing Season of Greys Anatomy... Izzie got married to Alex, Hunt almost strangled Yang to death, Callie found a new lesbian partner in Arizona, Bailey choosing between General Surgeon and Pead!

I can't wait for season 6 to start....

Alamak... OH MY GAWD

2009-05-24T04:53:00.001-07:00

lol... I just realised that my blog is 90% on football... LOLxx..

I need to crap other stuff on my blog... DANG..

Who will Sir Alex field against 'relegation battling' HULL CITY ??

2009-05-24T04:04:00.000-07:00

So, if you have been reading the news... SPORTS news..., 3 particular managers are just waiting to blame Sir Alex because they are about to be relegated...

1. Newcastle (Alan Shearer- What a hero he has been... NOT!!!)
2. Middlesborough (Gareth Southgate.. What happened???)
3. Sunderland (Ricky Sbaragia)

*West Brom has already been relegated*

What are the 3 of them saying??

If HULL win because Sir Alex fields a "WEAK SIDE" he ain't keeping the integrity of the English Premier League for every team "must" field their strongest side...

I AGREE... BUT..

HELLO.....

WE HAVE A CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL MATCH IN 3 DAYS TIME...
use your brains will ya???? we need to rest our players to bring back the trophy to England!!!

If I were Sir Alex, I would not listen to them... I will field my second string players (which in my opinion are definitely stronger than HULL no matter what!!!)

MARIANNE TANS TEAM

KUZCHZAK
(would rather have Foster, but is injured)

Gary Neville Rio Ferdinand Richard Eckersley Fabio da Silva

(he needs his fitness)

Zoran Tosic Darren Fletcher Darren Gibson Nani

Federico Macheda Danny Welbeck

Super sub:
Rodrigo Possebon (Midfielder)

YUP.. thats my team... IT STRONG!!!!

Loserpool had their chance.. and they took it for granted..

Why is RAFA BENITEZ being such a sore loser....

"I would like to congratulate United, and no one else..."

United was not doing well in the beginning of the season.. No ROONEY, Ronaldo suspended, bla bla bla... we were practically in the BOTTOM half of the table...
Arse-senal was leading the pack....
United was losing or drawing...

THEN... BAM.... we were 3rd... then NUMBER 1....
Seriously.. It was one heck of a season all right...

Full of suspense and so on...
We did lose to Loserpool twice but, hey, WE WON THE PREMIER LEAGUE.. haha...

So, to all those United haters out there... Go drown in your sorrows... we did the treble again.. something no other club has done before... AND... we went on a 13 clean sheet game run...
Who cares bout the invincibles... Where are the invincibles now?

This team for me is by far the BEST TEAM EVER built by SIR ALEX FERGUSON.. job well done...

Next up, Barca and the Champions league final...

I would also like to say this : RAFAEL, FABIO, EVANS, TOSIC (u will get ur chance), MACHEDA, GIBSON, FOSTER, WELBECK and all the youngsters and the first team players.. WELL DONE...

THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT FOR UNITED..

*** No offence to the REAL GERARD PIQUE... hehe... ***

BLONDES... hahaha.....

2009-05-07T22:16:00.000-07:00

Okay... Everytime someone says BLONDE it will automatically pop in our mind that they are dumb... Really.. DON'T try to deny this fact.. yes.. u who are reading this..

Funny, cos I came across this small hilarious 'story' on blondes... haha.. I was literally laughing my head off..
This is why!!!

*** NO OFFENCE TO THE BLONDES OUT THERE***

BLONDES ARE NOT STUPID CONVENTION

100,000 blondes gathered for a "Blondes Are Not Stupid" convention.

The leader says, "We are all here today to prove to the world that blondes are not stupid. Can I have a volunteer?"

A blonde gingerly works her way through the crowd and steps up to the stage.

The leader asks her, "What is 15 plus 15?" After 20 to 30 seconds she says, "18!"

Obviously, everyone is a little disappointed.
Then, 100,000 blondes start cheering, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"

The leader says, "Well, since we've gone to the trouble of getting 100,000 of you in one place and we have the world-wide press and global broadcast media here, I guess we can give her another chance for the sake of all the blondes out there"

So he asks, "What is 5 plus 5?" After nearly 30 seconds she eventually says, "80?"

The leader is quite perplexed, looks down and just lets out a dejected sigh. Everyone is disheartened.

The blonde starts crying and the 100,000 girls begin to yell and wave their hands shouting, "Give her another chance! Give her another chance!"

The leader, unsure whether or not he is doing more harm than good, eventually says, "OK! OK! Just one more chance. What is 2 plus 2?"

The girl closes her eyes, and after a whole minute eventually says, "4?".

Throughout the stadium, pandemonium breaks out as all 80,000 girls jump to their feet, wave their arms, stomp their feet and scream ... Give her another chance! Give her another chance!

LOLxx... They'll say Give her another chance! Give her another chance! for ever I guess...
HAHAHAHAHAHA

Till then... TA-TA-FOR-NOW

Out of the FA CUP! But, I'm still proud of the team!!!

2009-04-20T00:14:00.000-07:00

So, last night, Manchester United were kicked out of the FA Cup by Everton in penalties... So???

When I first heard the 1st team line up for United... I was shell shocked... The reserve team playing in the FA Cup against a strong 11 men Everton??? I have to say I had my doubts!!!

But, the youngsters prevailed.. They were excellent!!! The da Silva twins, Darren Gibson, Kiko Macheda, Anderson and Danny Welbeck were amazing... I have to say, Ben Foster was not himself yesterday.. He was day-dreaming a lot!!!

90 minutes of normal time and a reserve united team held a 1st team Everton 0-0... It lasted till extra time, but by that time almost half were made up of 1st team (Ferdinand, Vidic, Scholes, Park, Anderson, Evra, Tevez and Berbatov)...

When Macheda was substitued I was FURIOUS!!! Macheda and Welbeck played very well together.. Why the HELL did Berbatov come on!!! I would rather have Nani in for Tevez or Anderson!!! And PARK??? Why was one of the best players on the field substituted???

Then... It was penalties.. I was over cloud nine when Cahill missed his! Then, came Berbatov and Ferdinand... If it were Nani, Macheda or Welbeck that had taken the 1st two spot kicks, we would have been through to the finals... What a waste...

Still... The young guns did me proud... My friends said that we would lose 4-0 cos of the inexperienced players we had.. Still... we went on till penalties decided it...

It might not have been a classic Wembley semi-final.. but, it was still a classic United game whereby the young ones were given the honour to play in one of the Oldest Competitions in the World... THE FA CUP!!!

The Qunituplet is a NO GO... BUT, fear not... We now aim the QUADRUPLET!!!

Glory Glory Man United!!!

p/s: Welbeck should have had that Penalty.. Phil Jagielka got lucky... And Mike Riley gave many decisions against us thanks to the STUPID COMMENTS BY DAVID MOYES suggesting that Mike Riley was a UNITED fan...
MR. MOYES... there's ur proof that REF's DO NOT SUPPORT MANCHESTER UNITED!!! NEXR TIME... KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT WILL YA!!!!!!!!

Opps... Hamilton axed!!!

2009-04-02T16:31:00.000-07:00

Looks like Lewis Hamilton could be axed from racing this season...
Lewis was found guilty of misleading FIA race stewards at last weekend's Australian Grand Prix.

He has been disqualified from that race and lost all the points he received for coming third. What a waste of time and energy!!!

Lewis lied and said that Trulli's car was out of the track when it wasn't...

Moral of the story, if you wanna lie, do lie properly!

This season belongs to Felipe Massa or Robert Kubica!!!!

Loserpool won't win the Champs League or the Premier League

2009-04-01T00:49:00.000-07:00

So what! Manchester United lost to Loserpool 4-1 at Old Trafford.. BIG DEAL!!!
United lost to FULHAM 2-0... so?? We had Scholes sent off.. If he was on, it would have been a different scoreline!!!

When United lost to Chicken-Liver Pool, all the kop fans were like.. Hahaha... we won.. 4-1 wei.. what happened!
I'll tell ya what happened... United were tired from Playing Champs league.. we had to win the Carling Cup and so on... And, loserpool won because of Vidic's downfall...

United can still nick the Premier League.. We have a game in hand and 1 point more than loserpool... ALEX will choose his squad properly... UNITED FOR THE WIN!!!

Finishing Foundation in APIIT/UCTI

2009-04-01T00:36:00.000-07:00

I didn't realize I was about to finish my foundation on the 27th of March.. I mean, I feel as though I just started it 4 months ago! But, it's been a year already!! How time flies!!!

I did learn a lot in Foundation.. I made new frens! lost some... lolz.. thank GOD i did..

All in all, I had so much fun, and I'm so gonna miss my frens!!!

2009-04-01T00:34:00.000-07:00

So sorry I haven't blog since February! hehe.. was kind of busy.. Anyways, IM BACK!!!

And.... Chelsea has a new manager...

2009-02-11T05:29:00.001-08:00

All I can say is "Chelsea Football Club's Board and owner are bunch of DING DONG's!!
Scolari was doing really well, till this month! They sacked Ranieri, Mourinho, Grant and now the great Scolari?
You want to be a successful club? Here are some tips!

No1. Keep the man! No matter how badly he is doing, he will pick up sooner or later.

Exhibit A - Sir Alex Ferguson. You think he was brilliant since day 1? No! He wasn't. We did horribly the 1st couple of seasons under Alex. BUT! The board kept him. We were promoted, demoted, promoted again, and have since remained in the premier league and not in the coco-cola championship (aka league below premier league).
He has been in Old Trafford for 20 over years! Because of him UNITED won various trophies.

Exhibit B- Arsene Wenger. He hasn't done well in the last couple of seasons. Still, the Arsenal board kept him. He

So, why sack a man when he just got the job a few months ago? He needs time to settle in, get to know the game-play and so on.
Chelsea are really silly to let Scolari and Mourinho go.
Now, there Guus Hiddick. He is smart. He knows one slip up and he will be jobless. So, what does he do? Take a part time job in Chelsea while managing Russia. *Smart guy*

To Roman Abrahimovic, you can't everything. You can't control football. Look at Man City and Real Madrid. They have the best players. Yet! They are struggling! Money can't buy you trophies!!!(unless you bribe the relevant authorities).

No2. Like I said, money is useless in Football. Big flops such as Shevshenko! He was a great player. Came to Chelsea and got destroyed. Same goes for Adrian Mutu. There is no need to spend silly money on players. They are not worth it. Like the 100million plus that Real MADrid want to pay for Ronaldo. Its bogus!

No3. Before blaming a manager, take a look at your players. Ballack is rubbish. And so is Kalou.
Sell them, and buy quality players. Don't say "It's all your fault Scolari".

No4. I have nothing else to say.

Chelsea fans should be disappointed with whats going on with the club. The clubs expectations are WAY TOO HIGH! Come back to earth Roman!!!

Chris Brown goes "MONSTER" and hits Girlfriend Rihanna in the face! OUCH!

2009-02-10T18:40:00.000-08:00

It has been reported that Chris Brown was the suspect that punched Rihanna in the face.
OUCH! What went wrong for the lovey dovey couple?
Well, Rihanna got jealous coz' Chris was flirting with some other woman.
Then, Chris punched Rihanna in the face. It caused her a broken nose, split lip, bruises and some bite marks (he bit her? Animal much!).

So, Chris ran away and after 13 hours or so, surrender to the cops.
MARCH 5 will be the day he knows his fate. It could mean 9 years in jail!
Currently he is on a $50,000 bail.
Looks like theres 2 more lonely people in the world on Valentines day!

WOW!!! And this was the guy that said he would never hurt a woman after what happened to his mother! MAN..

So, as many of you know, the Rihanna concert in Kuala Lumpur has been postponed. Give the organizers 2 weeks to come up with a new date.

Personally, I think it was not jealousy that sparked the punching. It could have been because Chris didn't want Rihanna to come to Malaysia cos she will get so humiliated worldwide JUST like my Idol AVRIL LAVIGNE!!!! -lol.. its my opinion.. what say you?

My say on the 51st Grammy Award Winners

2009-02-08T23:25:00.000-08:00

First of all, Congrats to Adele for new comer artist. Seriously, I thought Duffy or Jonas Brothers (I would have voted them) to win the category. Brit Adele won it in the end.

As usual, there were performances. Good performances by Jonas Brothers (Joe should have worn something better), Katy Perry (I kissed a girl- love the song), Estelle and Kanye West and so much more...

Coldplay another Brit band won 3 grammys if I am not mistaken. Viva La Vida did it for them.

Ne-yo won one for Miss Independant.

Jennifer Hudson who lost part of her family members won one-i think album.

My fav composer John Williams won for composing the soundtrack in Indianna Jones -Crystal Skull

Another composer (in my list he is second to John Williams) Hanz Zimmer won because of The Dark Knight theme.. Hanz Zimmer also did nice soundtracks for Pirates of the Caribbean.

Then, Kid Rock didn't get an award for All Summer Long? Come on! I love that song!

And.... August Rush didn't win for best motion picture/soundtrack album thingy? I love the background music in August Rush!!!

Hmm.. I guess that's all I want to comment.

Jonas Brothers should have won!!
Chris Brown and Jordin Sparks -No Air- should have won too..

My own review on Lord of the Rings Conquest

2009-02-01T09:37:00.000-08:00

The game. Loved the graphics and audio

Matt and I playing the multi-player game. War of the Ring

This is part of the battle in Minis Tirith if I am not mistaken. We had to get the oliphaunts down before they reached the border line. Use the catapult and hero LEGOLAS!!!

I have played the Lord of the Rings: Conquest and I loved it.

I don't get all the bad reviews saying it was all bout button smashing and so on.
Hello! there are limited buttons. Of course it is button smashing!
Still, the game was fun. It was nice smashing away. Using all the attacks and combos.

I loved playing warrior, mage and best of all archer. I just kept on pressing the R2 button! haha..
Other than that, I got to play Faramir, Legolas (awesome archer), Aragorn, Sauron, Saruman, Gandalf and many more.
The setting was similar to what I have read in the books and watched in the movies.
I finished the game in 2 days.
So, I started to play multiplayer with my brother. Haven't played online yet!

All in all, I would give LOTR: Conquest an 8.2!!!
Well done Pandemic Studios!

DAP CNY Open House in Butterworth

2009-01-30T18:25:00.000-08:00

Michelle, Karmen and I

Guess which lucky fool managed to get awesome seats during DAP's CNY open house? Me lah!
Hehehe... Aunt Regina aka Regina William who is a reporter got me, Michelle, Karmen and herself a table with the label "PRESS". Not to press anything but for journalists.
Hehehe.. So, being a Pakatan Rakyat fan and a huge fan of taking photographs, i took some nice shots of Lim Guan Eng (Cheif Minister of Penang) and Lim Kit Siang( CM's dad and DAP strong man).

Lim Kit Siang

Lim Guan Eng - Penang's Cheif Minister

Me and Karmen at the "PRESS" table
Regina William
What are you looking at Chitty Regi?

There were speeches(the usual) and wow! I was so glad I was there! Guan Eng really showed BN who he was! " I dare Najib to change the constitution". Lol..
According to aunt Regina: There's my story!
And you know what! She was right. The story came out in the EDGE!

Also, I took pics with Lim Guan Eng! hehehe... Happy me!

Us with Guan Eng

The World According to Marianne;: Synopsis on Brisingr

THE LORD OF THE RINGS: CONQUEST!!! -Finally I own it!-

2009-01-21T04:23:00.000-08:00

Finally, I have the Lord of the Rings: Conquest PS3 version.
Got it from Low Yat today.
Price: RM269! no kiddin!

Gonna play it tomorrow a.k.a 22nd january! Can't wait!!!
Legolas and Aragorn here I come.
Then again, I'm so tempted to KILL Frodo Baggins! Hahaha...
Witch-King of ANGMAR and Sauron here I come!!

Wembley!!! Here we come...

2009-01-21T00:15:00.000-08:00

Manchester United have made it through to the Carling Cup final!!!
Who's gonna lose to the mighty red devils in Wembley? Tottenham or Burnley! I'm praying it'll be the later...

The match was an exhilarating match. Nani is finally scoring again! As well as Tevez. Good job boys!
I was hoping to get a glimpse of new signing Zoran Tosic but, alas, it was not meant to be. He was stuck on the bench. Chester, United's reserves captain came on the 2nd half and was promising!
Johnny Evans was great as well. If Pique remained in Old Trafford, he would have been playing instead of Evans..

Again, there were injuries to the red devils. Anderson had to be stretched off the field. The magnificent Rafael da Silva had a hamstring injury. I have no idea why United players are getting bloody injured right now! Its like a trend! Every season, when we are doing real good, we will end up with most of the starting 11 injured! However, we will win the cup in the end!!!

ALSO: CONRATS TO PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!!! BELIEVE IN CHANGE! YES WE CAN!

And the 44th President of the United States of America is... President Barack H. Obama!!!

2009-01-20T09:13:00.000-08:00

Yea! Its finally a reality! Not virtual reality, but in-the-flesh reality! OBAMA is the 44th President of the US!!! I would like to say thanks to CNN.com LIVE and facebook for giving me the chance to watch this historical event! Never thought my fav social networking site and news network would team up! I had fun reading the many different status of people all over the world! This one status was kinda of funny for me.
Read it! It was a Malaysian citizen's status!
So, I watched the inauguration since 10.30pm online via streaming. The streaming sucked at times, but, what the heck I saw an amazing eye opening historical event! Next, I just want to say that President Barack Obama's inauguration song was THE BOMB! I mean come on, it consisted of JOHN WILLIAMS (The great John Williams who wrote the scores for Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones and many more!), Ithzak Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, Gabriela Montera and Anthony McGill. The name of the score? "Air and Simple Gifts". I must so download this by this week (after gossip girl season2 episod16 and 90210). Aretha did a good job too! Loved her voice! Only one comment! What was up with that big bow on the hat? Again... The American Dream is finally a reality! I ain't no American but, hey, America makes most of the decisions in the world! And, it's OBAMA!!! Still surprised no one in the 2million crowd at Capitol threw shoes or tomatos at BUSH! Hasta La Vista BUSH! It truly is an end to an "error"! I mean "era".

A very happy Barack Obama fan!!! WAIT! I mean President Barack Obama!

I'm watching the Inauguration live from CNN.COM LIVE!!!

2009-01-20T06:46:00.000-08:00

Yup! No ASTRO! So, no CNN on the tube! What do I do? A girl who loves world politics? Simple.
Catch it on CNN.com LIVE!!!

Here's the link! -- http://edition.cnn.com/ -- click videos!

Its kinda of a collaboration between Facebook and CNN.. hehe..

GOD BLESS AMERICA. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY.. THE 44TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!!
LIVE THE DREAM!
HELL YES WE CAN!

Inauguration Day!

2009-01-20T03:41:00.000-08:00

Yup! Its the day! 20th january has since been the day the new president is officially the president of the United States of America.

GO BARACK OBAMA!
Be happy in the white house. Are you still opting for the labradodle?

Funny Day in College...

2009-01-19T02:38:00.000-08:00

It was like any usual day. You know, alarm wakes you up at 6.30am, then, I hit the snooze button. Finally decide to wake up at 7am. Had a nice bath.

Then headed to college.
The first class was so boring I was falling asleep! hehe.. No surprises there!
It was another 30 minutes till the next class, so me, Nana and Nara decided to head to IShoppe to get us some light breakfast. I got myself twiggies and Milo(can).
We decide to take the life to the 2nd floor, but no lift came! *lazy asses! Can't use the stairs*
We finally got the lift. Two guys were already in it.
So, I was minding my own business when Nara just snapped push 2 lah! I was shocked! I didn't know she meant me or Nana! The guys were stunned! 2 LAH? 2 LAH? Okay lah. They kept on saying LAH non-stop! it was kinda funny!

After the 2nd class was over, we headed to APIIT main building. It was orientation day!
So, IT WAS PACKED WITH INNOCENT LOOKING STUDENTS!!! wakaka.. they have no idea what's gonna happen to them!! *evil laugh and grin*
Back to the story.
So, we went to the cafetaria! Thank GOD we found a place to eat. We had to share the table with some Indonesia dudes. Kinda sexy lah their indon slang. hehe
Then, we wanna go upstair to the Discussion rooms.
Nana: Lift!
Marianne: Ler. Take stairs lah!
So, we both rushed to the lift!
Doors ain't closing! Why ah!
Some unknown woman who works in APIIT: Lift rosak lah!
Lol! Malu giler!!!!
So, we walked upstairs!
There, met Mihika. Chatted for a while.
Facebooked. Mousehunted and so on.

4PM! Time for PT lecture. No more Ms. Thana! Gonna miss her!!!
New lecturer comes in 30 minutes late. He got confused with the venue. poor soul!
Class was okay. He knew the module was useless, so, he skipped the unimportant parts! thanks!

Now, Im back in Vista!
3 more days and BYE BYE VISTA! HASTA LA VISTA!
