At last.....Earth Hour in M'sia!!!

This is an event, where i have participated since last year....even before Malaysia realized about earth hour.....well, better late then never......

Before this i envy other countries that participate in Earth Hour......They have so much fun and at the same time, conserve energy to help save the environment....

I am very enthusiastic about any events that can even help improve our environment.....and so happens my birthday falls on World Environmental day....

May be it's my destiny or pure coincident that im a environmental junkie....wakakaa...

The Blue's are in town (again)

Chelsea's coming to Malaysia again......im not really excited about it coz im not really a Chelsea fan.....My favorite color is not blue, if you know what i mean......

Since i got nothing to blog and most of my friends are anti-ManUtd, i say, what the heck.....

This will be their 2nd or 3rd time(i don't remember) coming her......i remember the last time was they were fighting for the FA Premier League Asia Cup or something like that......That was about 5 years ago......they were 3 Premier league that time.......Chelsea, Birmingham and Newcastle.....

Who Won???? Chelsea.... i think.......

I still remember Malaysia played with Chelsea but was thrash 4-1.....not bad compared with a 7-0 trashing from Manchester United a year before that.......but have to give a little credit to Malaysia as that solitary goal was from a set-piece......Chelsea was quite good at countering set-pieces at that time.....

This year, Chelsea's visit to Malaysia was not as welcoming as their previous visits as there were a few controversial issue as Malaysia does not have a diplomatic relationship with Israel....

What is it gotta do with Chelsea???

Chelsea that time are allowed in but not Avram Grant and Tal Ben Haim.....After a few discussions, few strings pulled, they were granted permission......Not that it's still relevant as Avram Grant is gone and i don't think Ben Haim is coming.....

Anyway, to all Chelsea supporters, tickets are available now and if you guys want more info, just visit http://www.ticketpro.com.my/en/akce/detail/51/

Tribute to Manchester United!!

European Champion's League 2007/2008 Winners
MANCHESTER UNITED!!!!!!
pictures from Soccernet.com

FINALLY!!!!! After almost 8 years of trial and tribulation.........ManU has finally won the Champion's league title for only the third time!!!! And the best part is......ManU has did a "double" by winning the English Premier League Title and, today, the Euro' Champ's league. On top of that ManU did another double on Chelsea by denying them of both the title......Avram Grant could have win it all but lack the experience of high octane matches like this which on the contrary, Sir Alex Ferguson has numerous nail-bitting experience that led ManU what they are today......

Having won everything in his 20 illustrious career at ManU, this is Sir Alex's first win in a penalty shoot-out in the Champion's league. On the other hand the "Yahudi Mabuk"(not being racist, but that what i heard in the background of the mamak i was in just now....kept me laughing like mad with the creativity of our malay friends) Avram Grant just started managing a team only this season......so, to put it in a nutshell, experience does play it's part.....But, good try anyway, Grant.......

The freaking match has full of up's and down's...... it's was tied in the full 90 minutes, 1-1......where Frank Lampard cancel out Cristiano Ronaldo's goal in the dying minutes of half-time......Chelsea was unlucky to get 2 shots of the woodwork which could spell disaster for ManU

It was a silly mistake by the Chelsea striker for not keeping his cool during injury time and got send off by the referee.....too bad : (

Chelsea was dominant for the full 90 minutes as ManU was forced to guard their half for the second half and also the 30 minutes extra time......They has 24 shots on goal while ManU was not even close to that figure.....ManU were like a toothless tiger that time.....

Then came was everyone feared the most........Penalty Shootout!!

ManU started first......... Carlos Tevez took the shot and send the keeper in the wrong direction and 1-0 to Man U

Next up, Michael Ballack.....Edvin Van Der Sar went the other direction....1-1

ManU's turn, Michael Carrick took the shot and Petr Cech couldn't reach it......2-1 to ManU

Juliano Belletti was next for Chelsea, shoots........got the goal on the right side of the net...2-2

Ronaldo's shot saved by Petr Cech
pictures from Soccernet.com

Cristiano Ronaldo was up for ManU.....did his attics and and Petr Cech guessed correctly and saves!!!! 2-2 (Chelsea fans in Hartamas was already celebrating)

Chelsea's vice-captain took the following shot.....Edvin Van Der Sar couldn't parry the shot and 2-3 to Chelsea (damn loud wei the bargers behind me!!!all Chelsea fan)

The 4th penalty taker, Oven Hargreves took the shot and sends Petr Cech the wrong way and ManU were equal again 3-3

Up next, Ashley Cole, who had a busy night defending Chelsea's backline.....hits it on the right side, Edvin Van Der Sar guessed correctly but the ball was too quick! 3-4 to Chelsea

Luis Nani was the 5th shooter, send the keeper the wrong way and 4-4.....

Salamon Kalou was Chelsea next penalty take and didn't dissapoint.....4-5 to Chelsea

Next up, ManU's young Brazillian, Andersen took the penalty and....5-5 to scoreline now


John Terry hurts his foot after taking the penalty.....where is Steven Spielberg??
pictures from Soccernet.com

Chelsea's captain came next, using his right foot, shoots, Edvin Van Der Sar went the wrong way....and......miss!!!!! John Terry missed kick and sends to ball flying to the fans......still 5-5(ManU's fan turn to roar Sri Hartamas.....)

ManU veteran was up next, with his ice-cold nerve, calmly takes the shot and GOAL!!!!! 6-5 to ManU!!!!!


Hero of the Hour, Edvin Van Der Sar
pictures from Soccernet.com

Chelsea's summer acquisition from Fernebache was up.....Nicolas Anelka kick to the left side of the goal but.........Edvin Van Der Sar took a lucky guess and pushed his shot out.......6-5!!!!! ManU wins!!!!!!!

Van The Man!!!!!! Our ManU heroes of the match!!!! Congratzz!!!

Hartamas was Roaring!!!! with the Red Devils chanting and singing their theme song....and then, the jam started.....with a bunch of ManU fans block the road to "see" us off and screaming their lungs out......

A glorious day for ManU and me because off the bragging right's from Brian!!!!!and also to silent's all Anti-ManU fans........

We've got both titles and you guys are firing blanks!!!!!!

Cheers!!!

Freeze for World Earth Day 2008


April 22 is know around the world as "Earth Day" since 1970. The history was a bit(actually very!!!) lengthy, that i didn't bother to read it......if you guys want more info, you can check wikipedia for it.

As you know, if there's any special day, there bound to be some special events and Earth Day has no exceptions as well. In conjunction with Earth Day, People decided to just "freeze" for 4 minutes. Sounds kinda lame huh???

Actually it's more hilarious then you think. Imagine, you, just walking in a shopping complex or the train station, then at the stroke of the hour, you freeze!!!......

People would be wandering, "what the heck????". As you freeze, you'll see other people's reaction towards your action and thinking, "what is going on???"....You'll actually try not to laugh before the 4 minutes and wanna look at their reactions more.....haha

It's no fun doing it alone. People might think you have just escape from Tanjung Rambutan or something. Do it with a group of people or a crowd. This is more fun and you'll remember to the day you die.......or something exciting happens to you.

There is a reason why people just participate in this event. The reason is that the average person globally uses 2255 Watts of power, or a little less than 23 x100 Watt light bulbs. (www.wattzon.org)

Now that’s a lot of power to be wasting. Imagine if we could Freeze the daily activities of as many people as we can for 5 minutes. That’s a looooottt of power we’re saving for the future generations.


If you guys wanna know more or inquire about future events, just click at the links below:-

To some who are still blur about this event, i'll put a video here of the same event but in another country....

Earth Hour 08'



from wikipedia.org
Origin

Earth Hour, under the working title 'the big flick', was conceived by members of WWF-Australia's communication team in December 2005 as a possible campaign to engage all parts of the Australian community on the need to address climate change.

A partnership was formed in August 2006 between WWF-Australia's Andy Ridley, Leo Burnett's Nigel Marsh and Fairfax Media's Phil McLean with a planned campaign date of early 2007. Earth Hour was launched publicly as a Sydney-only event on December 16 2006 by Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore and took place at 7.30pm on March 31 2007.

Following significant interest from both inside Australia and around the world, Earth Hour was formed into a non-profit entity owned by WWF-Australia, Leo Burnett and Fairfax Media. The decision was taken to make Earth Hour an open source model, allowing any genuinely interested individual, company, media or government anywhere in the world to adopt the campaign for 2008.


This is an event that participating countries is said to switch of their power for one hour in order to help the earth due the the alarming rate of global warming around the world....

Sort of a "protest" against global warming.....An awareness campaign so-to-speak

It is said to save at least 10% decrease of consumption of energy......Last year's Earth Hour, 68,506 individuals and 2,270 businesses registered their intention to participate on the Earth Hour website. It was also part of a wider awareness campaign that aimed to reduce Sydney's carbon emissions by 5%......

This year, All over the continent, more and more countries has join in the Earth Hour 08'.....Countries like, Australia, Philipines, Thailand, Canada to name a few has made their strong stand against golbal warming.....

How about for the individual of you and me with all the ah beng and ah lian you say??

Well, it's simple....

On 29th March 2008, at 8.00pm (Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong time), All you have to do is just switch off every electrical appliances for one hour (No playing facebook that time.....) then leaving them on stand-by....

Think off it, By conserving energy for one hour, this how much you save on your electric bills....

So, everyone, do your part for our earth as you future generations also need to leave in it....So, don't be so selfish and only think about youself....

Cheers!!!!!

Another Valentine's day poem......

Every year, for the past year or so, i've been writing a few poems or copy it from the net, so, i would like to continue the tradition in having one love poem in my blog.......
Valentine's day it's overrated like mother's day, father's day etc......Like what Kenny Sia said in his recent blog,

"I reckon February the 14th is one big freaking conspiracy theory set up by little girls to force their boyfriends into being extra sweet and nice to them, just so them girls could make their friends jealous"

It's like you only celebrate your love with girlfriend/mistress/wife once a year.......same as mother's day......you only love your mom once a year......same concept......

Or worst......

Valentine's day is the only day the wife can have some love from her husband as the other 364 (365 in leap year), the husband is with his mistress.......or The girlfriend
gets the boyfriend to pay for a dinner as she's always benn paying for the rest of the year......

In other places like in the US of A or Shanghai, V'day is highly rated among love birds....If 1 person does not celebrate Valentine's day, they'll be mock or critizes by their peers.......It's like peer pressure to do something on V'day.......Some desperate people will go to great length to get something from V'day.......i heard of some cases where they'll send flowers or chocolates to their office to themselves and claim it to be anonymous......kinda sad they have to stoop so low........

For me, im kinda have a double standard on V'day......

Let me explain in economic terms......

I don't really celebrate it as you need a lot of capital to be spend our all incurred cost as you'll not see much revenue from it......it's a win-lose situation......the guys is the loser as the girls rakes up your whole monthly wages.......if you think getting laid from your girlfriends is your returns, then i have nothing to say......

Anyway, if you love your girlfriend/mistress/wife/cousin only once a year, then, go ahead.....i have no right to stop you from splashing your money s it's only once a year.....

Well, if it's was me, i'll do the same as any other guy........to treat her extra special on that day.......not like i don't treat her special any other day......

Cheers!!!!! Enjoy the poem below........


Beautiful Eyes, Beautiful Face
Beautiful eyes, beautiful face,

I'm shy to talk to you.

You're the eagle I must watch

No matter what I do.

You're the beauty, wild and free,

The mistress of my eyes,

Rolling through exultant air,

Alone in pristine skies.

I would take you for my own

Could I but have your wings,

Could I but go where night begins

And frozen sunlight sings.

Could I but have you for my love,

How might we fly together!

But I must watch you from below

And long for you forever.

But I must be the one below

And long for you forever.

Russell Peters not coming.......damn!!!!!

Last year, I read Russell Peters website and saw his programme for a world tour........I was delighted when i saw KL there........I rubbed my eyes in disbelief that the controversial stand up comedian was planning to come to Malaysia.....YAY!!!!!

Those who do not know who is Russell Peters, let me give you a brief intro of his profile.....

Russell is a stand up comedian from Canada. This mid-30's, single guy with an indian heritage from his parents who migrated from India, (don't know where exactly).....performs in famous comedy stages like Just For Laugh, etc.....i read, too, that he has a sitcom.......Anyway, he is famous (or infamous) for his racial remarks and jokes which many culture finds it offensive and some, just plain laughter.......

Today, i just found out that he won't be coming to KL......crap!!!! i was kinda looking foward to seeing 1 of his stand up......."somebody gonna get hurt real bad!!!!" **with an indian accent

This is what i pickesd up from his website.......

KUALA LUMPUR
Sorry to say, but the show in KL will not proceed. Today - Sat.Jan.20.07. - we received confirmation that we did not get approval from the 'authorities'. Sorry KL but we tried.
Despite our best efforts to put on a show here, we were rebuffed.
We will be back in Singapore at some point this year, so we hope that the thousands of Malaysian fans will make their way down for that show.
Jumpa lagi, Inshallah.

Apperently, our country does not approve of his jokes......Arghhh!!! Looks like i'll have to wait for the singapore one.....haihzz......Don't know if my parents let me go.....if any of my friends are going, then may be i'll hitch a ride with them if i get the permission from my parents.......

It's one in a life time chance that he'll be here.......MUST SEE RUSSELL PETERS!!!!!

Hopefully, the Singaporean authority is more open minded to let Mr. Peters to go there and perform......

**the "would you like to eat in India" gesture to the authorities of malaysia**

Rain's coming.....





I got a few sms from Hotlink regarding Rain's tour around the world........i don't know the guy nor ever heard any of his song.....This post is not about me promoting his tour to KL......This korean heartrob have teenage girls going ga-ga around him....His concert tour is just around the corner.......i couldn't be bothered by finding out about it.....Im not really enthusiastic about it......


It's more of an irony of his arrival...... Rain's coming to our country when we're having flash flood around




When advertisement of his tour flood around our country, heavy rain started to pour down like nobody's business...... it's as if Rain coming to our country is causing floods all around Malaysia....

Sound's like im blaming that guy....hmmm.....im just kidding about blaming him.....i got this inspiration from one of the comic strips in the papers....

Haihzz......Everyday rain...cause flood in certain parts in our country.....Thank God Selangor or KL was affected.....Certain places had double floods and some area which never been affected by the flood also 'kena'.....

Singapore also was not spared by the flood as they also 'kena' but not as bad as Johor.....I think it was somewhere near Media Corp...... i dunno where is it.....

Anyway, i don't think this flood will last very long as it'll just wash away in due time.....

If anyone want's to help or volunteer in helping the flood victims can go here...... a small help goes a long way.....give what you can......

Well, got to go now....i wanna go to sleep now....need to go out later.....

Cheers!!!!

Well, other's will be going to other people's house, singing christmas carol, going to church......etc...

This morning, woke up with a slight fever....couldn't get up and was aching everywhere.....thx God it didnt last long as im now recovering after sweating it out.....my back still aches a bit....

Let's go back a few days earlier......didnt get much sleep during the weekend as i had to decorate for the children christmas party of friday night, had the party the following day on high......(not on any pills or overdose of cough syrup) high with joy and get to spend time with friends....

D-Day on Saturday!!!

There is 4 more days till the futsal tournement....Where David meets Goliath, old wounds will be open up, renewed rivalry, nail-biting encounter.......

Aie....Sounds like some wrestling match on TV....lolzz

I'll cut to the chase....My team (still dunno what's the name of it) will take it out on the (futsal) field that day with the rest of the participant......

KKJ, Danl's team, are just a few of the teams that will join in this torney along with other new and old teams.....

I still don't know where my team stands as we still have a lot (i mean a lot!!!) to improve on our games....we have unlimited talent on our team but still haven't realized our potential of mixing and matching for the best combination....

All though (i don't mean to brag....) we have a title under our belts, but there's still unhill task to try and repeat that feat again.....

I'll not talk much about my team as i don't want to give out any information of our tactics and strategies.....The walls have ears....lolzz

Still the top contender is DanL's team as they have lot's of experience under them as they're the older team with players age average of 25 years old....

Can the "uncles" win this torney again??? or the underdogs snatch the title from them??? or the dark horses of the tournement takes the glory this time around???or can the team of La Galaticos of KKJ prove that they have the biggest "size" in the torney ???

Well, This will all be answered and laid to rest on that day....

Cheers!!!!
