backtracking to sunday

SORRY, THIS IS NOT HALAL.


Sunday morning till early evening was great but not at night. Woke up at 8am and soon made my way to Waseda High School at west coast road. They had an event called the Seiransai which was opened to the public. However, i got to know it through my sensei. I met ben chan first and we made our way into the school where mari approached us. She greeted us and told us to visit her classroom. Then, we went into their classroom block which is only 3 levels high. We saw Akira on the 2nd level and we immediately went up to his classroom. Every classroom prepared their games or skit to entertain the public. Many jap girls were shouting with their high pitch voices to attract attention. Akira's class was about shinobi and it was pretty interesting. Me and ben were greeted by a pretty, tanned girl called wakana while we went into the room. i was well impressed by the japanese's creativity though we were eliminated fast from the game. Soon, we met Aaron, Chris and Shuwen and decided to go meet our senseis outside the gate. While waiting, me and ben went into the dining hall to watch some j-rock performances put up by a few group of students. The bands were good, in fact better than superbands cause the vocalists' voices were damn powerful. We watched Kazu play his drums as well and i never expect a guy like him to master drums so well. After waiting for some time, we realised that our senseis abandoned us so we proceeded back into the classroom block. We were enjoying every moment of it, some of the jap guys cross-dress which is damn gay but funny. I like this game we played called alice in wonderland where this guy who dressed up as alice really looks like a girl! Kinda couldn't believe it when i heard his manly voice haha. I like the skit put up by class 2B best cause it is damn humorous, though we could only understand abit of their dialogue but their actions made us laugh through out. 5 stars for that skit! We saw something interesting at cookie booth on level 1. there's this self-drawn menu which says : " SORRY, THIS IS NOT HALAL!" and i was like omg..cool shit. my friends should have a rough idea why i like this self-drawn menu. We continued to explore the school and we went into the table tennis room to play. I had a fun time playing with ben while we saw the school team members playing among themselves. They were fantastic to watch, super quick reflexes! Basically , the school is so small that they only have one block of classroom, one dining hall, one basketball court, one soccer field and a block of dormitory. Somehow i find it a nice place to study cause it gives you the cosy feeling and you will meet everyone in school everyday. Lastly, i feel so happy to see Mai again and this time round she's dressed in a kimono with her hair tied, simply gorgeous...lost for words. We went to watch the bands perform again and there's this band who played dance dance by fall out boys and dani california by red hot chilli peppers. They were real good once again. The vocalist even managed to sing the high pitch part which was something tough for guys. We finally left the school at 4.30pm after staying there for 7 hours. It was a meaningful event and really spurred me to study harder for my jap.
I went to hang around till 6pm when i met seba, xiong, yong, chuan at beauty world mac. However, chuan and xiong were late by a little so seba, yong and me went to shop & save to place bets. Yong was firm in his decision to bet with blackburn while seba trying to do a history of United win 2-0 and a D-H and i was still pondering on what to bet. I thought i shouldn't trust blackburn since they let me down against sheffield united in a goaless draw and FRANCIS JEFFERS ,the so called fox in the box ,played instead of jason roberts (due to injury which i wasn't aware then). After some serious thoughts about it, there was benni mcCarthy after all so i decided to follow yong. Bet placed : Blackburn win, odds 1.92, 10 bucks on it. I thought if this time don't win, i'll be left with nothing to spend. Thats how broke i am. After seba and chuan had their Mcdinner, we head straight to yong's house for a sunday night match double excitement! Chelsea vs Liverpool and Manchester United vs Arsenal ! Who could have miss them? i actually sacrificed my work for these. Ben Tay came straight to yong's house at 8 plus while Des Toh joined us at 11pm. On Chelsea vs Liverpool, the blues still had to rely on their warrior didier to get 3 points for them. Brilliant goal from Drogba, well controlled with his chest and did a left footed volley with no second thoughts. I salute him, that gave him his 5th goal in 5 games. Where's the 30million pound Sheva??? i don't see him anywhere. He's hopeless just like ballack. What does ballack know nowadays? Shout at opponents, refs, stamping on them? What a dirty player! Stamped on future Liverpool legend momo sissoko..utterly disgusted. The scousers simply had no idea of how to break blues down till ballack was off. Gerrard couldn't even score from 5 yards which left xiong and seba shocked as they chose him as their fantasy league captain haha.
Verdict: Liverpool have alot of catching up to do!

Warrior Didier sliding across the field after his terrific goal, the fans still love him

" Oh back off Ballack! Stop complaining!" Boo...


AT LAST... this is not for show.. jose meant it

Straight after was Manchester United vs Arsenal. Des and Ben were the only Arsenal fans there while Yong, Nik, Xiong, Chuan, Seba and me were on United's side.Both sides were doing relatively well in the first half where each side had a couple of clear chances but failed to convert it and it ended up as a goaless first half. Adebayor earned an undeserved penalty for the gunners in the early half and the United fans were shocked. With Tomasz Kuszczak (i copied & paste his name) in goal, we were rather worried for him. Goonar's captain Gliberto Silva stepped up.... and MISSED! The whole bunch of United fans cheered like mad. Des and Ben were busy cursing their togolese striker, Emmanuel Adebayor for being so clumsy while i was rather worried with O'shea playing. It made me wonder where's Carrick. I was looking forward to a goaless draw in the second half since both sides really can't finish. Gunners really looked hungry for first 3points as they really threatened us at times. They didn't seem like they miss Thierry. Till 86th min, this is the moment where our heart sunk. Ronaldo tried to dribble for a counter attack but lost the ball while doing so to Cesc Fabregas. Failing to regroup, Cesc spotted a space to slot a pass for Adebayor where the togolese slipped the ball pass our keeper. It was like hot knife through butter. OMG! how can this happen?!? Ben and Des couldn't wait for the whistle to be blown. Meanwhile, United urgently attacked for the last few mins and Solskjaer did a left footed volley which was brilliantly saved by Lemon's fingertips! Awww! We felt the pain. Just moments later, the final whistle was blown and our faces were glum as we lost 3 points at home as ben and des hugged each other for joy. I was really sad even though blackburn won man city 4-2.

Kuszczak goes " MAMA!!!!" after saving gilberto's penalty on his debut while the rest happily slap his head to pacify him.

"Oh no! It's Adebayor?!?"

Adebayor goes emotional with Cesc and William. His face probably looks the same as Des and Ben when they celebrate . Like it or not? It's Emmanuel not Thierry...

We left yong's house for supper at al ameen. Had one cheese, one plaster. We discussed about the match as we ate. Later, we sat there and talked about secondary school memories. Amazingly, we sat there from 1plus till 3plus morning. Those memories really brought us unlimited laughter till we lost the pain we felt when United lost. We shared cab home and by the time i slept , it was 4am. What a Sunday i had! Enjoyable one! Wee...
