Charlton wins 5 - 4 on penalties.

Charlton did what no other team, up till now, could this season: Beat Chelsea in a football match; abeit not over 90 mins, but through penalties. Great news for everyone. No more talk of a quadruple! This is GREAT! HAHAHAHA

Sunday, October 16, 2005Rooney Rox
Sunderland 1 - 3 Man Utd
Source: ESPN Soccernet
Rooney single-handledly won the game for Utd. His goal may be abit lucky but how he took the ball past the goalkeeper was simply amazing. His throughpass for Ruud, who also scored, was perfect. And again he provided the killer pass to another talented youngster in Rossi, who shot the ball like a true pro. Also, Bardsley was excellent in defence. But Man of the Match had to be Van der Sar, no him, Utd would have been blown off even before Rooney started his show. Sunderland performed very well, Utd didnt. But overall, good debuts for 2 youngster Bardsley and Rossi.

Friday, October 14, 2005会有那么一天
Just felt like posting the lyrics of the song playing in the background. Nice Lyrics eh? Haha
一九四三 世界大战
阿嬷年轻的时候
爷爷爱他那么多
他们感情很深
但是爷爷身负重任
就在离乡的那夜
给了阿嬷一个吻
轻声说到
我要离去 别再哭泣
不要伤心请你相信我
要等待 我的爱
陪你永不离开
因为会有那么一天
我们牵着手在草原听
鸟儿歌唱的声音
听我说声 我爱你
夕阳西下 鸟儿回家
阿嬷躺 在病床上
呼吸有一点散漫
眼神却很温柔
看着爷爷湿透的眼
握着他粗糙的手
阿嬷的泪水开始流
轻声说道
我要离去 别再哭泣
不要伤心请你相信我
要等待 我的爱
陪你永不离开
因为会有那么一天
我们牵着手在草原听
鸟儿歌唱的声音
听我说声 我爱你
我要离去 别再哭泣
不要伤心请你相信我
要等待 我的爱
陪你永不离开
因为会有那么一天
我们牵着手在草原听
鸟儿歌唱的声音
听我说声 我爱你

Thursday, October 13, 2005The Greatest Insanity
Went out on wednesday, to play a game called cashflow 101, haha, not the first time playing, so it was pretty easy for me to achieve the objective haha.
So-called lessons to be learned from the game -
Grab opportunity when u see one.
Learn to leverage on each other.
All those things la haha, always hear these whenever i get the chance to play the game. It is a good game, but it isnt that realistic a game as it claims to be anyway imo, once u played once b4, you will generally know wat to look out for and it gets easy. Besides, the game was made in the american context, haha in singapore, the stock market is so stable, if wan to see such big variations that is pictured in the game, wait long long then maybe la, maybe will have one or two such examples. But then, its still a fun game tho haha.
On the mrt, i saw someone reading the latest streetdirectory of singapore. Yes, he was actually reading it, he was at the index page where the listing of the roadnames, building names, places of interest etc are and he was like going through them page by page lol... pretty wierd eh?
Oh yea, now to my title... saw this phrase somewhere, dunnoe who said it, but it sounds funny in one sense, but pretty true imo...
The greatest insanity, is to do the same thing everyday and expect different results.

Tuesday, October 11, 2005To Change or To Persist? Food For Thought...
Change
There was once a crow,
who had decided to leave his home.
He met a pigeon,
and the pigeon asked him,
"Why are you leaving?"
The crow sadly replied,
"Because the people here don't like my voice..."
So the pigeon looked at the crow and asked,
"Where do you plan to go?"
The crow gave a somewhat puzzled look at the pigeon,
and after some time finally replied,
"A place where people will like my voice."
"Where is that?",
the pigeon continued.
There was a long pause,
and finally the crow replied,
"Anywhere."
"If you don't change, anywhere you go, people will still not like your voice."
Persistence
In the confrontation between the stream and the rock,
the stream always wins.
Not through strength,
but through persistence.

Confused... Life Without Regrets... Possible?
Very confused about many things now, i really dunnoe what i should do. Went to a talk todae and got reminded of many things, though actually, they are all not related to the talk i went. Sometimes i really think that events in my life keep repeating themselves, sometimes for good, but most times, its not really good. Same things keep happening over and over again, the only difference is that the people involved are usually different. Its been happening with such consistency that now i'm almost afraid of whats the next not-so-good thing thats gonna repeat itself.
Living life without regret, is that really possible? There's many things that i have regretted doing or not doing or being late in the past, but they are all over and in the past, and i just hope that i will be able to live everyday from now on, without any new regrets.
Just seen the timetable for the new sem, pretty much like the first sem but friday seems to be a free day for us haha!, but then abit funny leh... it never include our IS modules. Haha... Hope its not on friday!
One of my New Semester Resolutions: Try not to be late. (Dun wanna be "Forever late". Haha!~)

Thursday, October 06, 2005For The Past Few Days...
... i was at our Class Chalet @ Aloha Changi. Haha! It was pretty fun with all the things we did. GYM did a very good description on her blog haha so im lazy to do another one haha. Sort of messed up abit on the second night with the "minor" cut that i accidentally got. Sorry if i had caused u all to worry, but im alright le. =) THanKs all for the concern shown, even though im alittle paiseh haha.
Reached home at 2pm on wednesday and was pretty tired. Went to nap at 4pm for 2 hours or so before i had to go to eugene's sister wedding buffet all the way back in pasir ris haha. Luckily weeleong was driving la, else i would really hate to take the mrt all the way to pasir ris having returned from somewhere near there only 4 hours or so ago. "Ni Bu Shi Shuo Ni Qu Zhu Chalet, Wei Shen Mei Hao Xiang Qu Da Zhang Hui Lai Yi Yang" was what he said (or sumthing along those liness) when he saw me, refering to my wounds, lol, oh well, the chalet was Fun, and i enjoyed it alot, and its not like those wounds are life-threatening or what, so i dun really mind haha. And i know he was joking anyway haha.
CONGRATULATIONS to Wonqi & Wanjun
Best Wishes for your union, Zhu Ni Meng Yi Bei Zhi Xing Fu Kuai Le.
And finally thanks 1F07 for making the chalet a fun and memorable one. Also, thanks mrs tang for taking the time to come all the way down to our chalet.

Wednesday, October 05, 2005The Difference 4 Days Makes
UEFA Champion's League
Liverpool 0 - 0 Chelsea
Liverpool unlucky not to win, and the referee was once again so kelong. Blatant penalty appeals turned down once again against Chelsea.
4 days later. EPL
Liverpool 1 - 4 Chelsea
Liverpool fans must be feeling so embarrased that the "champions of europe" can actually lose to the "champions of england" by such a large margin. This time though, Chelsea actually wins on merit.
Who's gonna be able to stop Chelsea? Haiz, i learned from Kelvin that Chelsea's gonna break the gooner's (Haha) 49 games unbeaten record soon, yep, very soon in 6 weeks time. And... guess what, the team that is charged with stopping Chelsea from breaking the record is the same team that stopped the gooner's record. Yes, playing against Chelsea for the 50th match (in 6 weeks time, assuming that Chelsea dun fall before that) is Man Utd (i think).
What irony. It'll be fun to see which side the gunner's fans side with when that day arrives. lol
P.S. Waha, which side will u be on Kelvin?
