LOL! And other than that her favorite would be lei...maybe its because she listen to it on yes933 a lot of times le ba? haha.
~.~ she don't allow me to buy another album on Saturday - not even when i use the excuse that "her supervisor loves milubing too so can give him as a present"... sigh...shall be a good girl then~ haha

qing & quizzy,
thanks for the MyPaper article on MLB.
Oh, I love cantonese songs too. My favourite Hongkong singers are Andy Lau, Leslie Chueng, Jacky Chueng, Anita Mui & etc.
Ya, agree with meikian that its time for the management to look for endorsements for MLB. 1st choice should be Milo, then adidas, then ......
Talking about Pink, dun forget that 5th Aug 2006, all MLBians were wearing Pink lor. Actually Pink is a very nice colour, it brighten your days. And I think many guys are wearing Pink nowsaday, dun see there's anything wrong with guy in Pink.
Fyi, I have 3 Pink tees & a hot Pink long sleeve shirt.
Uncle Phil | 27 July, 2007 01:49
Hi Initial D,
Of course I did notice that they are wearing Addidas outfits & shoes, but thought endorsement will have advertisment.
Fyi, sometimes it can only be sponsored & not necessary to have endorsement. I remember Soul also worn many Addidas outfits during the Superband season. And the Warner Music website (http://milubing.warnermusic.com.sg/default.html - then select Accolades under Artiste Profile) also never mention that they have endorsement with addidas except only Super Coffee Mix.
Maybe MLB can enlighten us on this?
thanks for the wobao link. their interviews quite nice. not those cliche type(: weiqi seemed especially serious and zhen4 jing3 in the video. so not like him so cold here leh! oh no weiqi has got split character? lolx jk.
haix i wan the poster but really cannot get down to bkpj auto session. hahax perhaps any friendly mlbian stayin at east side who is goin can help me get the album+poster?(:
nicky nouse. lo. new addition to the DISNEY family? :p
anyway MLBians, i suddenly thought of it. since 淚 is already on the chart, we can vote by calls & smses. why not we save the coupons for a new song on the chart? how about 適應? cos for new songs to be up, can only vote via coupons, then need alot of coupons. so how's that? using coupons to put 適應 up and continue to keep 淚 up there by calls and smses? (:
binz, which part of e east are u staying at? i mite be able to help u..mail me? yuanping87@hotmail.com :)
erm for e yes 933 long hu bang voting rite..pls do not vote other songs up yet..u are onli wasting ur vote cos it wun be enuf to get onto e chart..when we hv accumulated enuf pts for lei den we start voting other songs..voting 2 songs at e same time will onli disrupt our votes n we dun hv tt mani coupons on hand oso..yup..i will keep arnd 20 coupns to vote for shi ying when we feel we hv accumulated enuf pts for lei k.. :)
let me jus post e voting methods again:
1) voting coupons obtained from i- weekly (40%)
cost: 26 cents
2) sms voting (30%)
sms POTP933 LEI to 72346
cost:30 cents
3) hotline voting (20%)
call 19009120933, key in ur phone no followed by #, den press 1 followed by 17# (for lei)
cost: 20 cents
4) visual radio (10%)
Good Morning MLB... MLBains
Howdy frm Maldives!
Wah! Weiqi..badminton..it reminds me of your superband days...Judges said "MLB..pattern 多过 badminton!!
So the more you play badminton means we all will see more patterns..hurray!!!
So many activities huh..I really want to say a BIG thank you to all those that took the trouble to post news on MLB, interviews, videos..it at least help me to keep connected. MLB CD is with me in Maldives and I am playing it everyday!
Posters at MRT Stations..that is good advertisement..if I saw one..I will stand there and stare at the 3 bois.. so HAPPY for them and the fans.You guyz keep up the good work and swarm around MLB..!!!
K.. so much frm me.. I am gg to swim with the fishes and kiss the sharks..they are as long as me..n dun bite!
ciao!
Uncle Phil | 27 July, 2007 12:38
I STRONGLY AGREE with what yuanping has said.
We should concentrate on "Lei" first. Its not even hit the Top 10 yet. We may only consider voting for "Shi Ying" when "Lei" hit the Top or at least Top 3.
Do not WASTE your coupons by voting other songs, we may end up not even 1 song on the chart due to insufficient votes. We need to be UNITED and cast votes for the same song.
And as far as I know; after "Lei" (di yi zhu da ge), shall be "Shi Ying" (di er zhu da ge) & follow by "Get Alive" (de san zhu da ge).
Lets cooperate and cast our votes for "Lei" as of now.
Thank you very much to all MLBians for putting so much efforts to push "Lei" to the TOP of the Chart.
MLB Family Power-Lah...
wee~~ it's Friday~~ no mood to do work~~ haha at weekend mood le.
Nvm if u can't scan, shan. Maybe xiu jiejie will do that or I ripped from the E-paper online ba ;).
Yes when we vote for multiple songs, there is a tendency that, say, lei, will not get good results? Choi choi choi la, but if we feel that 'lei' seemed to be (as in, the trend shows...) disappearing from POTP soon, then we can start voting other songs? haha.
so yeah, tomorrow I should be taking 960 or 963 from Woodlands Interchange and try to be there by 1.30pm. Cos will be gymming in school first or jogging at Stadium...
I prefer to jog at stadium leh - provided the weather isn't sucky... O.o!
haha... 1st time i see weiqi here reminding us to tune in. U going to teach us how to pronouce whatever u posted on air isit?... ltr i will try to put in the direct streaming to the blog so that u can also hear it while commenting (refresh on comments page only to enjoy continuous streaming)... will try to do a recording.;P
hi wave eeyore, NPwruss n all cuties..
my 1st glance was -" Love is no where" & 2nd glance was "Love is now here"..
hmmm, childhood lasting memories..
got many..i used to stay around the Farrer Park MRT area.. something like ChinaTown type.. a big house with many rooms inside n diff kinds of tenants.. all sharing one toilet, one bathroom, one sink n one tap..
but my place was more kampong type, i remembered there was a big cockerel n a big goose.. both no idea, hated or loved me.. frequently got painful pecks on my legs.. so got to looked left n right to mke sure the 2 rascals were not around b4 i dared to walk to the backyard..then quickly ran back to the hse, to siam them if they appeared.. life, then was nvr boring... every day was interesting!
Pulau Ubin - went there many years ago, n went there agn last Sunday.. so much had changed..some development done already..
since when i sat in a bum-boat..
yrs ago, i had tis feeling that Time stood still there, but tis time no such feelings..however, the place is still rustic n laidback kampong ambience..with its rubber n coconut trees , minus the poultry.. @ Chek Jawa - still can c plenty of vegetations, mangrove trees, napah palm, which is rare in Spore Island.. n my fav Attap Chee, came from the fruits..
it was a pleasure n v relaxing to c seagulls flying above the sea n also spoted a hornbill high above the tree.. Nature! is beautiful!
hey all, just discovered that I didn't show up for almost one week. Haha...almost lost my way since it is new. :P
Life is still as busy. everyday open my eyes, I start to stare at the computer, till I close my eye before sleep.
Nong nong time ago, when computer didn't exist in my life at all, i didn't even know what is it... at a small kampong in Serangoon, near Hougang. Life was simple and happy. No toys no video or computer game, just simple hide and seek, catching and zero point. :D
hee hee, dolphins are so clever, human like.. read on..
Amazing News from Wellington -( AFP - Wednesday, March 12)
quote:-
"At a New Zealand beach, a two-metre bottlenose dolphin, named Moko by locals, guided two stranded whales to safety after human attempts failed, after apparently communicating with them."
"The whales made contact with the dolphin and she basically escorted them about 200 metres parallel with the beach to the edge of the sandbar."
"Then she did a right-angle turn through quite a narrow channel and escorted them out to sea and we haven't seen those whales since."

oh ya. thanks for the contributions for the childhood thingy! haha i didnt realise that children dont have toys at all back then.. anyw its jus about this thing about us neglecting the childhood innocence and simple happiness due to our current busy lifestyle. hope u guys had a nice time recalling the happy simple times during your childhood and keep that innocence in your hearts!
Yah, I'm very proud of my relatives. :D we are a bunch of clever mammal. Haha...
You r welcome eeyore, we really dun have much toy in our era... soumd like we are very old. Haha... Well, we do have toys, but with all the big compound to run and explore, we can just throw our barbie dolls or transformer aside and play hide and seek instead. its more fun!
hey! hey! years ago, toys were limited, the roads were not so congested.. plenty of compound, plenty of bushes/trees.. so girls usually play hide n seek, police & thief, five stones, skipping, whereas, boys like to fly self made kites of various designs, marbles & spiders..
the next few days will be gg up north to hv some fun with one-arm bandits.. c u all when i'm bck..
enjoy yrself in dreamland all..
a little joke b4 i retire to dreamland..
There are three major races in Malaysia - Malay, Chinese and
Indian .
The Malays have the political power and so they set up
the party UMNO, which Literally means 'U Must Not Object'.
The Chinese, on the other hand, controls most of the economy
and they called their party MCA which means 'Money Conquers All'.
Then there are the Indians who have no say in politics or
economics. They set up their party called MIC. Hence, every
parliamentary meeting the Indians would ask: 'Must I Come?'
just a joke told to me... hope it doesnt offend anyone here!
gd nite!
Happy Easter day... finally a break, even though it's just a day only cos have full day class on Sat and Sun, it's still a nice break from the hectic schedule.

A cute Chihuahua dog, called Conan, learnt to pray for treats @ a Japanese temple after learning to imitate the worshippers around him.
"Conan started to pose in prayer like us whenever he wanted treats," said Joei Yoshikuni, a priest at Jigenin temple on the southern island of Okinawa.
When the priest starts chanting and raises his clasped hands, Conan also raises his paws,...and looks right up at the statue of a Buddhist deity.

Hi all, how ya doing? Long time never tag here... still in bz period, and it will go on for quite for time. Now life is only @ 3 places, home, office and school. Project going live soon, exam around the corner. Guess I really need to have more than 1 life to survive this period. Some time really wanna tell my boss that I wanna quit because it really not worth for me to hang on like this. Haiz...
Anyway, I'll be in deep ocean for this period, but I might pop up for a breather once in a while. Take care while I'm not around! And thanks for birdie for keeping this place warm. We need it really! Keep the AK spirit alive!

here is a little joke, just for fun..
Mr.Delegate went for the recent United Nations' Meeting.
He represented the Malaysian Prime Minister.
All nations were discussing about space exploration by the year 2003.
Here are some of the
conversations:
China Delegate : 'By 2003, China will start their moon exploration project.'
Russian Delegate : 'We too, we are going to explore the moon. This time we will see to it that our cosmonauts will step on the moon.'
George Bush : 'We the United States will also explore the moon for the second time.'
Malaysian Delegate: 'By 2003, Malaysia will explore the sun.'
There was a long silence.
Bush stood up and asked the Malaysian Delegate: 'Isn't it too hot to explore the sun?'
Mr Delegate:- (after a long silence): 'We will do it in the evening'.
Hi folks, havent visited for a while. Back here for some relaxation. I did my duty for chingming back on good Friday, which got me thinking. Is chingming a chinese tradition or a religious one? I always tot it was a tradition to do with being chinese but wn I checked the online dictionary for the english translation, the answer was contrary to wat I tot. hmm…all of a sudden, it just struck me that sometimes, it seems we do things out of obligation w/o tinking of it’s implication (if there is any) or if & how it affects our own beliefs in any way. If we dun pay respects to the people who hv gone away in the manner which they understand or believe, will they ever get our well wishes? Do u all know that the taiwanese call this the tomb sweeping day in English? I had a good laugh when I heard it cos I tot that they would hv come up with a more creative name for this day instead of a direct translation. And it’s even a public hol for them!
hi garfield, welcome home.
I did my duty for chingming too on Sat.
i choose to believe is a Chinese traditional festival to honor the dead, ppl we love & lost.. a day to remember our love ones n to clean their graves..to offer them food/floowers..
to the farmers it is also a festival to celebrate the coming of Spring, where everything is suppose to be green, fresh and clean..
i believe, most asian countries do set aside a day to remember the dead.. n to honor them for all the goodies that they had laid out for us..
maybe, somewhere down the lines, some ppl might add some religious prayers n rites according to their religions, in the hope that is might help the dead..
well, so long as whatever, they do can help to ease n comfort the living..
Hey hey, I'm back for relaxation too...a little update of me, just had a one week MC last week. I kena Shingles, on my forehead. Originally, I thought I was bitten by some bug, but when my doctor saw it, she immediately referred me to Mt E specialist... then i realise it can be very serious. Lucky my shingles not so bad, it just a small patch, didn't expand its area. So i'm back to work, and continue to work like a slave.
FYI... Shingles grows with the line of nerves and caused by low immunity system and stress.
thanks birdie, dat's another way to look at it.
Arghhhh....back to rant! frustrating days at work these days. clearing up people's mess. sigh i know it is part of my job but when i wade thru the murky muddy waters, i wonder why is it me? times like these, i wish i call the shots, then can "delegate" the blxxdy mess to someone else to clean up. so tired now, the only good thing is dat i m so tired dat i get to sleep like a baby at nite. so nitey, gotta get rest for another day at the muddy waters. PCK, lend me ure yellow boots pleaaaasssseee!
Shingles(Chinese called Snake) is caused by the same virus that causes chicken-pox. The chickenpox virus remains in a dormant state in certain nerve cells of the body for many months to many years, and then reactivates, causing shingles. This can only happen to ppl who had chicken-pox b4 & when the body resistant temporary became low & stressed.
Some years bck, Shingles almost complete the circle around my waist. B4 the rashes appear, the area around my waist became v sensitive, when the clothing touches the flesh. I thot there are thorns inside my flesh. Then the blisters appeared thick, red n hot. Caused alot of discomfort. I was on MCs for 28days + 2days AL. It took a long time to heal.
dolphin - u are able to wk in such a short period? better take care of yr health.. take a breather, when u feel stressed.
Shingles on the forehead can be serious, if it spread to the eyes area. The eyes can be affected.
happy Sunday~ rest well all~
One Billionaire was at the beach one day. He owns many ships. He saw a fisherman, relaxing letting time passed. He felt that the fisherman was wasting his time and did not have plan to own a ship and develop a career so that he can be rich and retire like him, to relax at the beach & enjoy life.
The Fisherman said, 'that's what I am doing now. I don't have to be rich to enjoy life'.
Waves~ no need to be rich to enjoy yr Sunday~
my ahma once said that if the snake goes one round over your body, sure will go somewhere exotic to report. so birdie you hv just proven it's an old wive's tale in a way. but if the disease progresses to that stage, it must be pretty advanced and harder to treat. Actually shingles is easily treated with medication if it is detected early so i guess that's why dolphin recovered so much faster than you.
Another related viral strain causes cold sores. never share food with anyone with the sores as the virus is active at that time. once you get cold sores, you hv to live with it as it never goes away and re-surfaces whenever you are stressed or hv low immunity too. so many transmissible diseases nowadays, i dun like to share food or at least use serving spoons pls. some girls have such petite appetites, they like to share food for fear of putting on weight. i am usually the odd one out who will eat the entire portion. yummy what, live to eat, not eat to live. the worse is they ask if you wanna try out an exotic drink in a social function, and all 4 persons have oredi tried it before me, from the same cup! i hope they dun see my eyes grow from -_- to O_O erm thanks, but i will give this new beverage a miss or i'll order my own :p
hi how's every1.. miss all the cuties..
enjoy yr holiday - Happy Labour Day!
hi garfield - our ahmas cld be rite.. cos the snake did not mke a full circle.. still got abt 2 inches space, i thot i was really gg to that exotic resort to report.. but the angels say, i hv to be scrubbed plenty more b4 i can go to there..
sori errors above...the angels said, i hv to be scrubbed plenty more b4 i can go there.. so hv to bear with all the scrubbings if i wish to fly to that pure land...
a friend emailed me tis story.. v touching..
The Special Occasion
Quote:-
"A friend of mine opened his wife's underwear drawer and picked up a silk paper wrapped package."
"This," he said, "Isn't any ordinary package."
He unwrapped the box and stared at both the silk paper and the box.
"She got this the first time we went to New York, 8 or 9 years ago.
She never put it on; was saving it for a special occasion.
Well, I guess this is it.
" He got near the bed and placed the gift box next to the other clothing he was taking to the funeral house. His wife had just died. He turned to me and said,
"Never save something for a special occasion.
Every day in your life is a special occasion.
" Those words changed my life. Now I read more and clean less. I sit without worrying about anything. I spend more time with my family, and less at work. I understood that life should be a source of experience to be lived up to, not survived through. I no longer keep anything. I use crystal glasses every day, I'll wear new clothes to go to the supermarket if I feel like it. If it's worth seeing, listening or doing, I want to see, listen or do it now." unquote..
Hi! i'm back for another visit.
Came across this song by Lee Ann Womack while listening to the radio on the road. nice lyrics, i copy n paste them here.
I Hope You Dance
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
May you never take one single breath for granted,
GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along,
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone.)
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
Dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance.
I hope you dance....I hope you dance..
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone)

Myanmar -
'The situation in Myanmar is one of horror almost beyond imagining -- with starving survivors picking for food in waterways littered with the bodies of the dead -- and aid groups agree time is running out, yet the govt is placing so many unacceptable" restrictions.
Refused to allow foreign relief workers to help desperate cyclone survivors. Many of the survivors are injured. The situation is chaotic & v sad, is like living in hell.'
The flooding is so magnitube that even can be Seen From Space.
This week is also Friendship week.. let us pray for all the ppl who are suffering in one way or another..

wow parrot drop back for a visit.*wave* too.
i hate Q-jumpers. nearly got into a fight with a Q-jumper recently, got me so riled up. i still feel upset over the incident.
nowadays i keep seeing lefties playing guit on tv. 1st was joanna wang, then came david cook from AI(he rocks!), then i saw the guitarist fr air supply also a lefty on guit. v weird to see them holding the guit the "wrong" way & yet so comfortable with it. hee....totally random, jump fr one topic to another....my train of thought is jumbled up...yawn...so sleepy now, go nap nap.
hi waves~ welcome home, parrot.
I am bck fm Cambodia, glad to hv visited de magnificient Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, one of the famous wonders of the world.
The buildings are all so magnificient..including the
Angkor Thom - the magnificent inner royal city built by the end of the 12th century and is renowned for its temple grounds and towering southern gate. The Royal Palace is also so hugh.
But sad to see the ppl here are v poor , mostly living in atap huts with muddy grounds, no proper sanitations, electricity or clean water.. the rivers are so muddy.. ppl & animals are so lean.. difficult to find a fat person or a fat cow.. Ppl here eat all kinds of 4-legged animals - rats/cats/ dogs & creepy things like snakes/spiders, yuk! Along the mekong river, the ppl live in the river boats, bathe, & cook in the same water. Ppl in dirty clothings n naked little youngsters.. young children wandering abt, selling souvenirs or beggings.. they shd be in school?.. so many beggers around, many minus limbs injured by the land mines
Visiting the tortured chambers, of Pol Pot, the khmer Rouge Regime, with its many displays of torturing instruments n pictures of harmless, stripped naked farmers/children/babies, b4 being tortured to death is horific, v sad indeed. The skulls of the tortured dead being displayed & the mass graves created an eerie feelings in me.We were told these places used to hv restless souls crying in the night. Monks n nuns n religious ppl were called to chant prayers for the lost souls. RIP..
hi flamingo,
Angkor Wat is a magnificent temple located in Northern Cambodia in the province of Siem Reap, and slightly North of the town of the same name.

hey all! I'm back....yo yo yo..
Had a very hard time this yr in exam, think I will fail another paper or 2... die until nothing left. Found that I can't really concentrate at all, too many things to worry and ponder. Anyway, hope it will change for the better and next yr will be my last yr of exam.
Exam over and now back into the ocean with sharks. oh well...
Angkok wat is nice, hope i can have a palace of that size. hee...
I want go HOLIDAY!!! argh!
haha MM, I don't eat shark fin... too bad... Some new changes in work recently, many surprises and shock. a shark swims away, another came along. oh well....
Yah, missed so many events because of the exam. I don't really fare good for exam this year, might have to stretch my study for another yr... haiz... and in another 4 weeks time, will be starting new semester, part time not much of holiday. And an even worst bad new, will have sat classes for the new 1 yr!! Just pray events starts in the late afternoon now. :(
oh, so dolphin doesnt eat shark fins. after all that debate on shark fins, dare i say i eat it? maybe dat's why no sharks ard me, but i am sending a sotong on its way. its black ink is driving me nuts. tot i'd better get away before i lose sight of the exit. hope i made a scramble in the right direction.
duckling, good for you, can run along while dolphin swims. Sometimes, maybe you two can get to swim together too.
Also sighted the penguin in CS, not sure since it has lost its colour.
okay... i am seriously surprised about the coincidence... Erm, am I the penguin you guys are talking about?
PS. The penguin in CS isn't me. I wouldn't report to CS first...Haha~
ITS BEEN A LONG TIME! SORRY I WASN'T AROUND!
I guess uni sorta of take much of a toll on you then you would think. uni has been so hectic that there has been times where I just isolated myself from the world... but luckily, I always have the strength to pick myself up and plunge back in.
And I am back. I am going to take some time to read through to catch up...
Wow... Its already AK 7...
Hello! wave~ what a surprise to c pp after such a long time. Welcome home!.. so nice to c parrot & pp around agn.
Ya, i saw a pengiun @ CS. Initially, i was also wondering - 'is she our pp that we miss?' but as garfield said the color was missing - the geniune pp will not forgot AK..
JIAYOU! hippos/cuties, in whatever u are doing! Life can be tough!
The jungle had been v quiet.
Hope more missings can find their way bck, pop in occasionally to share, so life in tis jungle can be more interesting.
Hee flamingo, i spent 2-1/2 days in Siem Reap & 2-1/2 days in Pnomh Penh. We had plenty of time to look around.
Even visited the Royal Palace & went for massages, cruise down the Mekong River, went shopping & even took a walk around the red-light district.
flamingo, u been there, Cambodia got no scenery to boast off, food is lousy, not much things to shop, lots of beggers, but the ppl are friendly & i do enjoy viewing the majestic ancient places i went to, maybe bcos we got a gd young/handsome guide. haha!
Came across tis article in AsiaOne ..
"WOMEN are happier than men in Singapore.
Guys, you know what this means? You can go out and buy that boat or racehorse and she'll laugh her head off (rather than hit you on the head with the oar).
Market research has the figures to show that Singapore girls are optimistic. Little things make them cheerful, while the boys are more focused.
According to a survey of 750people, women had a 'happiness index' of 6.8 while men scored only 6.6.." cheers!
So pp solved the penguin mystery for us w her appearance.
Haven’t been to Russia before. Haha, birdie, it’s good to know dat the fairer sex is more optimistic than the unfairer ones in S’pore but.... 0.2 is not a big difference. guess i m one of the outlier pessimistic ones ard.
talking abt russia, had such a frustrating nite, last nite. it was a PAIN to watch the orange flavour tic tacs struggle to find a goal agst the vanilla ice cream. So disappointing. the orange tic tacs raised my hopes up when i saw their lethal n swift counterattack in one of their earlier matches. i tot this yr, they hv a chance finally. then....this happened. they were beaten by vanilla flavoured fledglings who looked like they were fresh out of school:( Took a look at their coach, den u start to say....no wonder. if i m not wrong, their coach is the wonderful one who turned the Koreans into a super force to be reckoned with. and this upset came aft the 1st one where another of my fave team is kicked out. the guys in maroon. supported them all along but they always disappoint in the critical matches. dunno wat happens, they give stirling perf, then the critical match they jus falter. Argh!!! even when given a precious free kick, cristiano hits wide open! every time this happens to the maroon guys, i tink kelong. wondering y m i still supporting dem, aft all my hero Figo has oredi retired. Den the whole match, camera keep showing the supermodel coach lounging at the bar. i tot this supermodel coach mus be damn bochap, haha den i later read dat he was kicked out of stands by referee fr an earlier match (i missed dat match cos i set my alarm for dat match but jus cldn't wake up!). all the drama i missed. now i dunno who to support, the next one on my list is the team w the supermodel coach. Wat happened to all the traditional super powers in the game? i tink like those in the political game, there is no such thing as super power anymore....its power to the underdogs.
Ha ha MM, you watching Euro cup? I can't watch, too late for me to stay up and watch. The once in 4 yrs world cup is good enough for me. :P
Russia!! Wanna go, but not by flight, by train. From Beijin to Russia, by train. It is listed one of the trip must take before we die. Maybe not now, but its in my plan.
duckling, I'll be taking mon, wed & sat class from Jul to Sept. Meet up for dinner if you/I can. Hope I can leave work on time for this last yr.
