what a waster..

just got home from the semi-final match..we lost 4-3 on penalties..after drawing 3-3 at fulltime..but considering that the team's initial goal was to just reach the quater-finals, i think we have already outdid ourselves! now let us just enjoy next week's 3rd/4th placing match..sure it is disappointing to lose but this tournament has really build up a nice team spirit among the team..and for that i think we have achieved an incredible victory already! cheers!

the last of the working saturdays!!

if everything goes as planned and as they say..today is my last saturday at work! until i ord that is! cool!

tomorrow's the semi-finals of the church football competition..feeling a little nervous..wish us luck!

grown up up and away..

sure signs that you're a grown up based on the prime minister's speech..

1. you listen out for the planned economic reforms..
2. you groan at the cabinet lineup..
3. you cheer at the promised 5 day week..
4. your imagination goes wild at all the new baby bonuses..
5. you decide to start saving money the next day..inspired..

this proves that i'm still just growing up!!

we are through to the semi-finals! enough said! =)

it's that time of month again..

the church team's quater-final match on sunday got abandoned with 5 minutes left to play..all because 2 gangsters from the opposition team (from new creation church!!) preferred to pick a fight with their fists! we were 2-0 up at that time when the referee - whom i thought lost control of the situation - chose to abandon the match! whether the result will be valid remains to be decided by the competition committee..it'll be a real pity if we were to be kicked out of the competition together with ncc because of this incident! another thing i found totally distasteful and disgraceful about those 2 idiots was that they were representing a church, no less! besides hurling their fists and a whole catalogue of vulgarities, one of them even went as far as to throw his jersey on the floor! i hope IF they ARE from ncc, that the church publicly take them to task! anyway, i hope the committee let the result stand which will see us through to the semis..

today was another torrid day at work..everyday i question myself why why why? why me? why this place? why! i mean, every day since the 1st of july has been bad even when on the outside i seem to smile a lot..but today seem to be one of the worst! i just don't know what hit me..there's just this sinking feeling inside me which i cannot seem to get rid of..even though i've spent the better part of today reading marian keyes' "sushi for beginners" - which is quite funny i must say..it utterly depresses me that it is about 3 women who are searching for happiness! what about me i say! what about me!

my mum's left for her "round the world" trip today and she won't be back for 3 weeks! gosh..3 weeks of take-aways! will miss her..less the nagging though..alright maybe a little of the nagging!

tomorrow will be better! mainly because i took half day..so at least it'll definitely be half better than today -shrugz-

cheers!

cool cats!

jessica adams's "cool for cats" is nice..to rock and roll music lovers that is..this must be the second book that mentioned that 1979 is the year rock music underwent an evolution..the first i think is nick hornby's "high fidelity"..maybe that's why i am so obsessed with music..in a way, i can relate to the female heroine in the story..everything we do seem to be set to a certain piece of music..it's these songs that make up the soundtrack of our lives..for this few months, my track listing seems to be stuck with lots of angry and sad songs..hai..

no matter how hard i try..work still sucks..i really really really really really got to find a better reason to live my life than like this..

assignment due in less than a week's time and i have yet to select my product..still deciding between doing sunglasses or cereals or employment agencies. gosh..there goes all my good work last semester flushed down the drain..

ok ok happy thoughts. maybe tomorrow i'll try playing something different like..urm..oasis' "stop crying your heart out"? bah..this isn't working too well is it?

shining through!

on the football front, the team which i said were tough to beat..well we beat them 4-2! i assisted two and scored one..i'm really thankful that the team still stood by me despite my lousy showing the previous week..but it was not about me only, the whole team played really well together..looking forward to the next round now..

my results are finally cleared! thank goodness! scored "D"s (for Distinction) for both subjects i took last semester..a great improvement from previous semesters..hopefully i'm peaking at the right time cuz i hope to graduate by next year! -fingers crossed- 15 down, 6 more to go!!

things are looking up..but feet on ground, these are times to not get too carried away..there will always be problems around us but likewise solutions are always around..sometimes it's up to us to accept the solutions and act upon them (she knows what i'm talking about!)..for all the blue mondays i've gone through, i've finally found a good one and that's today..today when i have been adored..

cycling and dim sum dollies still to come this saturday..i cannot wait!

cheers!
