My impromptu holiday is on.

The Cuz called me to say she purchased the tickets for KL on Christmas Day. Funny, how a casual 'OK' managed to materialize.

This time a long trip, 4 days in KL... imagine the things I'm gonna stuff myself with!!!

Poxy Cunts unite to irritate me today.

Firstly,

At the final whistle, Ronaldo ran off the pitch without shaking hands with any
of his opponents, although he was later persuaded to swap shirts with Robert
Pires, the former Arsenal winger.

-> Why did he even bother to swap shirts?? Why lah why?? Come on Bobby, please reserve some dignity for yourself!

Secondly,

Ferguson also strayed from managerial convention by apologising on behalf of
Rooney for the forward’s attempts to deceive the referee by diving, although he
could not resist the opportunity to have a dig at Pires.
“It was
uncharacteristic of Wayne,” Ferguson said. “He apologised to me afterwards and
said he didn’t mean to do that. He said that he thought the defender was going
to challenge him and was expecting the challenge. It was unfortunate really. I
think he has been watching Robert Pires too much. At least he apologised to the
Villarreal players. You would never see Pires do that.”

-> Yaaaaah right, you poxy bastard cunt! A bit rich coming from you, hypocritical twat! Obviously gone senile, kenapa lah team coach tak meletop smlm. Aman dunia.

Another fluff entry.

Still on the fingernails issue...

Omg! Juju has the prettiest fingernails/fingers ever lah...like a lady.

Warning: Fluff Entry.

Was browsing when I came across a picure of Cesc's fingers. I have to say, I am disappointed to see Le Capitan has oogly fingernails. Short and oblong-ish. Oh well, as they say, God is fair. He makes Cesc a kick-ass soccer player, intelligent, dork-ishly cute and wealthy at such young age but yet bestowed upon him oogly nails. Heh.

Water vapour formed in my tumbler.

It's hard to be truly truly happy for our new captain. As much as I am loving/glad/estactic over the new captain, I can't help feeling sorry for him. Being thrown in into the deep and expected to steer a shambling ship out of troubled waters. And he's only 21. Not that I think he can't do it, in fact I think he will rise for the challenge. We all know he's a capable and intelligent boy and he loves Arsenal (a proper gooner) but I can't help thinking that he's new role will stretch him like an overused handiplast. And we know what happened to handiplast that lost their adhesives, alas! all know how tough he is! So I wish him all the best, I can't wait to cheer them on to ride out this turbulent times.

And to YOU too. I know how things are kinda taking it's toll on you. Hang in there, babe! I go by the cliched "what can't kill us, can only make us stronger!". You are a gem, even if not everyone realise it as yet!

Quote of the day (even though it's sad): Off-form is infectious at Arsenal :(

Our idea of Holiday...

is full-time lazing around.

My parents are back! weeee!

When Arsenal is very much part of your family...

I was having a late lunch with a colleague when I received a call from my brother,

Bro: Hey, you had lunch?
Me: Yeap, I'm actually eating now. Catch you in 15 mins. Is there anything important?..
Bro: *chuckles* I've got something funny to tell you.

15 mins later

Me: Hello, what is it you want to tell me?
Bro: I was sweeping the floor while singing the Adebayor song (He is clearly in a state of euphoria over the win but Ade does not even feature over the weekend) than Nyaii (my grandma) says " Sudah lah Ahmad, asyik nyanyi lagu Adebayor aje. Dah lah hitam kilat, rambot panjang tocang-tocang..."....Aku terperanjat sey Nyaii kenal Adebayor... hahahah aku ckp "Rambot dia mana tocang2..??"...Nyaii jawab "Ah, sekarang dia dah potong rambot dulu rambot dia tocang2 lepas tu dia ikat"..... tak leh angkat sey, Nyaii pon kenal Adebayor rupernyer!
Me: Lol!

It must have been the ritual weekend nights when she join us for a dose of football, I think grandma prefers footie to any english movies we always watch as it is much easier for her to comprehend.

I think my grandma rocks. heh.

Will there be sunshine when we reach the end?

I think the talk of "Arsenal is back!" is a tad premature, we will see how this gunners do in the next coupla games.

Meanwhile, here's hoping more goals from Nasri in times to come.

Hey bro, thanks for convincing me to stay put and make sure I still sane admist the anxiety.

Keep Faith.

Me, the alleged fashion victim

I don't like to get touchy over trivial things but some things like being called "Fashion Victim" annoys the hell out of me. Call me that when the word 'trend' cease its existent. OK?. Can?...tsK.

Crestfallen

Enduring 2 hours of witnessing your own team self-destructing twice in a week is a bit much to take. I have before fell asleep or conveniently get distracted when we were crap out there, but isn't it too soon to step on banana peel? I'm used to the gut in my throat feeling that it's numb right now.

I am sad at the current state of the team.

At this point, I have ran out of reasons to stay optimistic. Coming back are the days where matches are followed with emotions switched off.

Please no more of those post/pre match interviews of we are united, we are young team and learning... blah blah blah. No one is going to buy it.

It's getting a bit old and repetitive.

p/s: Shoes are LOVE!

Tales of Shoes and me

I think shoes are LOVE.

I can't stop thinking of that white canvas keds that wld have been perfect to wear with my polka dottie skirt.

Never have I imagined to be the next Imelda Marcos cos I am more of a watchaphile than a shoephile but eversince I am on a roll.

:)

Fluff entry...

LMAO

Several things that tickles me.

• My brother: What my family and I still can't quite comprehend is how my quiet brother has grown up to be quite a joker. We don't know where he get his funny bones from but the queer bit abt it he only lets out this joker persona in immediate family company or some of our closer cousins.
• Arseblogger: No doubt, I read his blog almost everyday, no neccesarily agreeing to everything BUT I like the way he delivers sad news in a crazy funny way.
• Sheldon Mopes: I can watch this 3865825 times and still thinks it's funny.
• Bujang Lapoks Classic: I think everyone else will agree with me, you can never go wrong with this one.
• Sugar: When high on sugar, I do a giggle-a-minute. According to my friends
• Pipi's mum: Her mom has got to be one of the humorous ladies I known.

On various front.

Hari Raya: I am done and over with it. I had fun while it lasted. Nothing to reflect upon, cos seriously it's a bit monotonous for me, every year is same ol' same ol'. Accumulate mistakes through out the year and seek forgiveness for the entire month. Bleargh! Here's to the next Ramadhan.

Arsenal: *wakes up from deep slumber* Welcome back, you wounded soldiers! Internationals games are similar to seeing your family members going for war (Not that I have experienced that, but I think I can simulate the feelings after the number of war movies I watched thus far)...let's count the number of war casualities we have suffered.

Food: Mango Sago from Dessert Hut is the works!

Global Recession: Pay Cuts seems imminent.

Shopping: There's loads of SALES lately and it's not even GSS.

Enviroment: I've imposed a rule of 3 days a week sleeping without air-con.

Money: As per my point above, a 20% percent increase on the utilities bill is quite a bit.

Transport: NinaBuay, increase like nobody's business! Cut down on cabs and buses. Walk! if have to. Best is to hibernate at home.

Work: I have tons of researching and things to do but I rather compose a blog entry. Eeeps! A meeting on monday morning...

Tough lessons in life.

I lost my wallet last friday.

Apart from the neccesary cards, I had $200+ of cash in it.

As you can tell, I am quite affected because Syawal is around the corner and the money was meant for someone and the rest of it is not mine but to be paid for something. I think of all the hassle of having to re-do all the cards.

The wallet was only over a month old, a birthday gift from my best friend.

After the iftar meet up. I took long time to get home. I took an hour to walk home when usually I need a quarter of that to reach home.

I know it is my fault for being careless. I really start to wonder if 'CARELESS' is my middle name. I emotionally kicked myself for being so foolish and grew sadder as I contemplate why such fate befall on me as I hold in high esteem of not taking what is not mine but my sensible thoughts (yah right!) starts to set in and i figured the world doesn't work that way.

There some things that I meant to do, which I never got around to do, due to reasons I myself can't explain! I deserved this wake up call as I did not carry out my intentions when I should have done and no matter how upsetting it was. I felt I throughly deserved it. And if there was nothing uncovered. Things are never meant to be.

Arsenal has to top up my misery by putting up a lackadaisacal display. Needless lost and 3 points lost.

Update: I found my wallet. The librarian found it actually. Alhamdullilah.

Heroic Rendevous.

Gosh! The weekend went by so fast. I still haven't get down to completing my checklist.

My room is a pig sty complete with cobwebs and 1cm thick of dust. I really have no idea when is a good time to get down and scrub the entire room when I'm still stuck with neverending wardrobe sorting.

What a pleasant football week! The earlier game was kinda exciting and Pool won, this has to be the long awaited win over United by Rafa. We won 4-0, impressive I must say by looking at the scoreline but Blackburn is clearly a pale shadow of their thugsy selves. I thought we did well, an early goal help to settle the nerves. I still think Ade is fucking lazy but he scores 3 goals. So I am not going to complain but I just hate the fact that we started singing his song the moment he scores. pfft.

Why does it always rain on me?

Xabi Alonso did not come to the Grove.

AW is sticking to this current team.

It would be nice to have someone who strikes fear in the hearts of opponents in the middle of the field.

Arsene, you will need a full metal alchemist to partner Cesc lah.

We all know how horrifiying can be without Cesc.

I wonder...

The short time span or is it me? but I can't help feeling the time between this Ramadhan and the last seems like a very short time. I was very ill prepared for this Ramadhan... ermm, I normally embraced it with much gusto (ie. mad housekeeping rampage, overzealous planning of iftar dates throughout the Ramadhan). As I lay on my bed pondering (when I really should be terawikh-ing) what should I do to make this Ramadhan a better Ramadhan than the previous one. I know I have been slacking in terms of ibadah and last year's was particularly the worst of the last few Ramadhans I had.

Anyway, it's still not too late to make it a good Ramadhan. I hope to complete what I set for myself. And may Allah grant me the strength and resolute I need to fulfill my target. Insya Allah. Amiin.

To all,
Selamat Maju Jaya sambil menunaikan ibadah puasa. :p

*zap*
On Arsenal front.
I think we need a cover. Some sort of cover.

Swiss Beaver on loan.

I think we just rid ourselves of a top player + pleasant individual.
:(

20-08-2008

Heh, nice number eh?

Had cake for breakfast yesterday, no thanks to that someone who shouted "It's Ismiati's Birthday today!"... tsk tsk tsk... i was trying to stay incognito ya'll.

Anyway, I had a pleasant birthday lunch with my colleagues. The sweetest bunch of folks I've met. I stuffed myself silly and to top it all up, I even had 2 ice cream sundaes to finish!

My birthday dinner was with Kakak Yanni, she make me choose my present (which I heart very much!*sniffs it* THANKS!*hugs*) and gave me a treat at ayam Ojolali. Hah simple affair kan... we wanted to have black pepper stingray at Fish & Co. but it's sold out and I don't want anything else on the menu.

I decided to skip the dessert/cake part of the dinner cos I had too much of them during lunch and I rather we wait for Azmi as well and go crazy with the goodies. HAKHAKHAKHA

I dragged Kakak Yanni to Mustafa to meet up with my parents and we all head home. Yeay! Will be having birthday treat with my family on friday instead, to celebrate the Dad's.

To all the birthday wishes : Thank you so much! I appreciate it. My birthday may be over but presents receiving is still not over yet, so keep them coming in... hahaha.. shameless, I know!

No time to day dream...

As I was rushing through my work. I took a long look at my Calendar and then at my Arsenal wallpaper. Clearly, zoning out.

I recapped Clichy and Nasri hugging each other after the weekend's game and I daydreamed of them overlapping runs together with Martin's strong voice saying "Arsenal left side has the lethal quality to break down any defence".

And I smiled wide. WIDER...before I realised I still haven't finished with my website! Arrgh!

I've got an offline msg today from a friend with a msg "Arsenal not that fantastic leh"

Refusing to go on a full rebuttal, I replied "Some of you will never understand..."

I feel more at ease now, just enjoying as it goes cos it's still early in the season.
