football fervour

Ive been delaying this entry because Im still hurt by their loss...Its such a déja vu feeling from J2's nationals against RJC....

Ok out of point...

I just thought that Spain would be one of the underdogs who's gonna make it far... Their performance so far in the other games had been sooo good and promising I guess that's what made them complacent in a way...

The first half was being played welll by them... Penalty goal by Villa was such a superb one....

THEN came the equaliser and everything changed.... Spain wanted to win yes they did but they gabra-ed and shut down...

Or rather was shut down by France... Somehow their short passes were cut off by France every single damned time... To change their strategy at the eleventh hour was I guess too late and some of their non short passes were all over the place....

France really played well and improved unfortunately and they strategised against Spain's short and precise passes which earned them goals in the previous matches....


Looking at the players comments I would say that Spain were too confident and that resulted in the complacency.... Looking at the way France played for that match they deserved the win...

But whatever it is I still feel that Spain is a good team... They're young and most of their players are World Cup first timers... They have a lot more to learn... Lets just wait for the European Championships in 2008....

As for the match between Brazil and Ghana all I can say is that Brazil had loads of luck and Ghana just had none.....

Kelawar Ketawa Kentang

First night we kicked off with the barbeque to get everyone comfy with themselves arnd each other...

Thanks to Hanom I perfected the way to 'burn' marshmellows so they wont burn on the outside but is melted on the inside.... Yumss.... Thanks to Suzy for doing most of the BBQ-ing....

The girls present for the first night... Almost....

Late comers....

Those who got high on the spread and sauces....

Like 99% played some murderer game and seven level pig till the wee hours of the morning ... T'was damnnnnnnnnn kecoh !!!!!!! I couldnt join in as I had to prepare the masks for the next night....

Day 2's morning or shall I say afternoon since all woke up at bout 11ish... Games were very well received despite the eye bags on everyone and the guys who didnt even sleep cos they played soccer.... Still can climb trees and sing the ultimate jiwang songs ... Haha...

Then finally!! The climax of the whole camp... Masquerade Night! Everyone really took my look your best advice seriously and so the mood was strengthened by y masks! Painstakingly done ok! I so didnt know what colour combi to like match the masks and feathers but I didnt hafta think long before I used the countries'national colours in conjunction with you-all-know-what...
Cantik right! Food was sedap thanks to Atikk's recommendation!

Friendship dance... At ferst all was complaining when I announced that this was to be the next activity tapi bila start tak nak stop!! Haha... It looked so fun and hilarious!! We started with walkin then hoppin then jumpin then swaying then boogie-in then all the club dance moves started to come in including get this BEYONCE-ing! Hahaha I wish I didnt have to be the one taking pictures! But its so funny Im glad they enjoyed it in the end...



Those who were there for that night..... Enthu right! Haha...


The third morning me and Kamie decided to check out the boardwalk soo recommended by Md Noor and Fairuz.... Panas!!! But nice.... Should've had an activity there lah...


Girl talk session complete with ice cream and root beer and float and Atikk-on-the-guitar-singing-completely-nonsensical-songs-about-ourselves... Haha...

The star individuals of the camp...


Those who stayed with me till the end and whom the camp wouldnt be successful without.... MERCI BEAUCOUP!!...

Of course it wasnt a smooth journey! But despite all special thanks to my committee members who relentlessly worked their butts off with me to materialise this whole camp...Sorry if I couldnt help each and everyone of you like full force especially for food (sorry irah!)...

Kamilah,Irah,Dayah,Zahdan,Suzy,Atikk,Nisa...

Thanks=)

Thanks beribu! We still got to meet up for post mortem ah..


Participants and Com Members alike I hope you guys had the fun you all came for...Sorry for the glitches... I bet this was the slackest camp you all came for and went home gaining the most weight from...Hahaha....

Thanks again!!!!!!!!!! Heeee.....

sucrerie d'oeil

Garfield mengelamun-ing on my bed...

Today was a really off day for me... Had barely 6hrs of sleep after the Argentina-Holland match (of which aidil wore the holland's jersey padahal he was rooting for holland) before going to meet grandma aunty uncle and cousins at HjMainunah Geylang.... Tiring was an understatement...

Then supposed to meet Atikk and Amy at four at The Bird Raffles Place but I decided to take a detour home and take a short nap... Short nap my foot.... Woke up an hour late lah.... My whole body was already aching from yesterday's run and then the tiredness....I was practically dragging myself to Raffles Place.... Penat...

Anyhoos meeting ended an hour later....I was itching for it to end ... But we managed to cover more and only have the movement plan to cover.... Picture above are of the girls who came... Anyway I finally know where the underground mosque is... Can I be anymore dumb...

Met Aidil on my way home... Funny.... I bet he's asleep now and then later he'll wake up and scold me for not messaging him... Pans....





Samsiah howwwwwwwww......... Hhahahaha..................


Shit....

How can!


Ok toodles!!

Let hope Brazil puts up a better front later ons....

Nombre Une

I miss him.... Sometimes I still cant believe how far we've come together and what we went through.... We fight a lot more now but its nothing... Its amazing how close we are now... We're like inseparable even if we're just friends.... He wants to become a steward ( I know...) My firsts thoughts on it were hey giler! If its a matter of trust ( hey its aidil we're talking bout here) I may not have a lot stocked up but what I do know is that Im still numero uno in his eyes and will always be vice versa....

Aku cakap macam he's gone for a long trip padahal meeting in like 1hr .....

Dots...

Anticlimax ....

KKO next week!!!!!! Heart thumping.... I havent been the best of PDs so far but Im having fun and so are the rest I hope! Its a relaxing camp... Why get worked up unnecessarily right.... Minus the search for the perfect venue that is.... Heee...

Nwaes loves Aidil...=) Heee.....


Diam....

España Toda La Manera

Met the girls for dinner at Ramen Ten of which we made a fool out of ourselves just trying to decipher what the waiters were saying... In the end we settled for terima kasih... Really! You all listen properly! Hahaha.... Ok anyhoos we took neoprints!! Contrary to what people say bout them being really outdated like donkey years ago I ( and Im sure the rest) beg to differ.... It reminded us of our JC times together and its such a fun activity... Very impromptu and we made SOOO much noise especially Fana... But who cares really.. Thats the thing bout us when together and separately... But I think Ive changed... I think pressure has lead me to not be who I was... That for another day though... Anyways! Slacked at Mc Cafe after that... Saw some of the Anugerah Skrin participants ( like I care really) So ya... Had some good talkin' done after so long... Wish had a longer time to spend with them.... 18th July ah!

I look pregnant or sth seh in this picture... What the hell!!!!!!! But anyways wanted to say how semangat we were the day before Spain's second match while out... Notice the colours on my top and his new jersey....

I must say the match was pretty nerve wrecking for the first half..... Ok it wasnt pretty nervewrecking.... Thats an oxymoron..... We were practically covering our eyes everytime Tunisia was attacking not that they're that good but their defence was commendable eh.... So oh my gosh it was like watching a scary movie lah.. But anyway when the first goal by Raul was scored.... I tell you I feel like Ive never been more involved in soccer ever! Torres had a few chances but the second goal he scored was like oh mon dieu then the penalty... He's a super focused player I must say.... Really goes all out and dont give up easily.... Spain's spirit is just impressive.... And I really like their style of play... Systematic ( cant think of a better word)...

I cant believe Im writing soccer... I started watching the world cup not supporting any teams and telling myself to do my research first and watch the firsts matches then decide maybe if the need arises.... Im impressed by Spain really.... And biasness aside this isnt stemmed from the fact that Aidil digs Spain like mad.....

Ah still have much more to learn bout soccer.... The jargons.... The economics of soccer.... The players.... I must say some players are pretty good looking... Now I know what they mean by girls only watch soccer for the hunks.... Haha.... Ah.... Whats a girl to do....

Later meeting Aidil again for Argentina against Holland... MUST WATCH GAME!

My wallpaper

I like this group picture.... Thats the spirit...

Anyway holidays are drawing to a close... Urrgh! Haha.... I think some thngs which have happened through the course of the hols so far made me reshuffle my priorities and expectations.... Not sure if it'll stick through to the end of Yr2...

Suransi how things there?!!?!?!?!

I went jogging today!!! Ok running actually I think I went too fast...Or rather faster that I should after not running for so long... Barely half an hour and Im pronounced gone....Penat!!!!!!!! My brother laughed at my outfit lah... Haha Idiot...

Tmrw my grandma treating us lunch!!

Ok I better go take 40 winks now...........

Toodles people.......Muah muah....

Please baby dont.....

SARAH CAN DO SLEEPOVERS! Hahaha or maybe it was in the name of her son...'Messi'... Hahaha...

Ok sorry later will get back to that...Anyways went to watch the Argentina vs Serb&Monte's match at 3 Monkeys Cafe with the guys namely Dil Fidzuan Hich Asrie Khairul and Mat and the girls *look above*... It was unintentional that we were all in Argentine's national colours... Even more so that they won 6-0! 2 of which Aidil sadly missed due to his trips to the toilet outside only to find that there were toilets in the restaurant itself after the whole match... Haha (digress again)

As usual Fidzuan made the most noise not counting asking us for the 10bucks... Haha... We nearly did not get to watch the match but due to our pathetic faces (mine and Sarah's), the cafe's manager quickly arranged seats for us and we got like the best spot so far minus the guy sitting in front of me covering my view of the goal post!!!!!

And so anyways after the 5th goal Sarah decided that she wont watch Holland vs Ivory Coast's match alone so we got this giler idea that she and Su come over to the mosque to watch it with me! But not wanting to miss any goals like Aidil she decided to wait till the match is over.... Once said Messi (her son..dont ask) scored! What are the odds mans! So she went out and she came back in screaming that her mum actually let her... And this wasnt even like planned 6 mths in advance... Haha...

So gitu lah... We talked till 5am so now Im super tired to the max but I drank Caramel Macchiato to wake myself up for the meeting at 12nn so tired as I am I cant seem to doze off... Damns...

Printed like 3u89247328647823 pictures half of which to be sent to Aceh and the other half for a scrapbook...

Im so ngantuk!!!!!!!!

I absolutely LOVE the Sergio Mendes Timeless CD.... Me and Sarah totally ripped from Asi's lah... Asi-Lah geddit? Hahahaha... *ketawa sendiri*

Oh met Aidil awhile just now and he's just as gone as I was ... He was more like swaying than walking... Haha SOO much for setting up water point....

Im so tired... OK toodles people!=)))

"My Oh My!"

Yesterday was LAME DAY OUT WITH MINAHS.....

Here goes some of our conversations...(excerps from SU)
"lets eat NYDC for dessert!"
"but su's going L.A, there's be many cheesecakes there!"
"oh okay LA! (lah!)"

"sarah, why is there a hole in your chicken"
"because its boneless chicken, they need to poke a hole to remove the bones"
"oh, but the hole so small, like use puncher to punch holes"

su : when was the last time you shit.
diana : shat.
sarah : there's no such word as shat
su : okay. when was the last time you shitted.
diana : shat lah
diyanah : so shit shat then wad?
su : shitten
sarah : okay maybe shat comes before shit, since its shA then shI. A before I.
su: okay. i am shatting now.

"you want to know how to say goodbye in persian?"
"wad?"
"khodafes"
"ko wad fest?!"
"khodafes"
"sounds damn rough ah, like you say bye to the person and wished he never returned"
"how do you say bye in arab?"
"woosh!"
"boom!"

"when a singh on his motor bikes engine, it goes 'turbanturbanturbanturban' "


diana: eh (to su and sarah) you all support spain too?
sarah: yeah cant you see our faces...we look like spaniards...
sarah: su looks like the bull...

Go Figure!

Haha needless to say we had fun =)

Worth every cancel of plans right?

A perfect example of dengan muka-muka...

On the 14th we decided to whip up our own lunch which made up of Roasted Potatoes with Herbs, Tricolour Pasta with Seafood Shittake Cream and Cheese Pasta..... Then watch some DVDs after which we proceeded to catch the match between España and Ukraine ... Superb match! Awesome even for a soccer goon like me.... Haha.... I guess Im beginning to understand soccer more and more... For me the World Cup isnt just soccer.... Which is why everyone must make an exception to watch the matches....


Meeting some girls again and some mats to watch a match at Free Bananas laters....


Toodles!

C'est impossible!

I wanted to touch on something but when I started to type it down it seemed sooo none-of-my-business-y so I like deleted them all...

Sometimes I wonder how other people think about me...Not to say that Im a narcissist or that Im not but I constantly worry if I offend others with my random gestures or comments or just passing remarks... Sometimes you may say things which you think are just jokes but they actually hurt that person a lot because you dont know what that person may have gone through such that that supposed joke cuts cleanly through him/her right through.... I get those sometimes which is why I dont want others to especially not cos of whatever I say...

I dont like it when people start to judge me....Then again who does right... I care do much about what others think and feel that I neglect my own self sometimes... God tells us to be patient... Rationally we say we have to fight for our rights and not be a coward and just sit down and take it all in... But whoever said that being patient and taking it all in is a cowardly act...

But to err is human and we forget that sometimes.... My patience does have its limits and needless to say I do get out of control sometimes but no one other than family has seen that side of me yet not that Im super proud of it....

I dont know about you but I wake up almost everyday thinkin that its the last and fearing what holds for me after that if you know what Im refering to...

Im certainly not anticipating that DAY.... Im trying hard to change given these surroundings... Trying to stop totally the inhibitions, the vices... My kinda vices...

Ok enough of back-to-reality words-of-wisdom...

I saw this pair of red heels with a butterfly motif thingy at Tang&Co going for 60bucks (what a deal I know!) and the grave mistake I made was to try one on in my size... ( This isnt in my list of vices ok!)

Went shopping with Aes and Liyana for Liyana's ball...( Tu sebab!) I think the whole colour palette of the outfit... Can never go wrong with golds-cremes-beiges.... Wish I have a ball to go to! Hahaha... Im sure lah konon CinderDiana...

Talking bout that..Teringat that time Aidil surprised me with a candlelight dinner at Clementi Woods! HAhahahaah! With help from 'butlers' HADRI and PRAVIN! Hahahahaha.... Imagine lah my surprise.... Doesnt matter how amateurish it was but its just damn sweet lah coming from Aidil... They went all the way to Ikea to get the utensils and West Coast Food Centre(ok this one not really all the way) for food... Hahaha....

Oh for the BBQ I forgot to thank Afiah (another organiser) Hadri ( for the house and for cooking for us without eating himself) Had's maid ( for helping us clean and set up the pseudoBBQ pit) =)

These MATS are really one helluva great bunch of people to hang out with.... "And I saw your face...GONE CASE..." sang Jan to Im not sure who... This is just one of the random things that they do...No wonder Aidil has withdrawal symptoms if he doesnt meet them at least once a week... Just being with them instantly lifts your sorrow and pain ( but really!) They are DAMN lame and crappy and noisy but its all in the name of fun... They play hard AND work hard... There's no pressure when with them... They dont shape each other but that doesnt mean they dont care.... When the need arises they act... They're just FUN...

Anyway my new room fan is super strong even when its only at level one, its spinning like its gonna explode... Haha... I didnt try level three though... Maybe it works the other way round... Hahaha that'll be damn bodoh...

I went solo shopping at Bugis and Ive set my eye on this one top...Because its over the buy-on-the-spot budget Im giving myself a week to see if Im still thinking bout it by then... Haha tactic bagus eh? Oh and me and Aidil actually were talking bout making the Espana tee and since its useless if I wear it since the word Espana will be vaguely visible we decided to make a tudung one..Hahaha ingenius! Red tudung much like the one I just bought with Espana in egg-yolk yellow velvet on one of the triangle sides... Totally UN-tacky!


I love fashion... I think Singaporeans should make more effort in looking good and complete when going out to roam the streets... Taking pride in one's looks doesnt necessarily equate to being bimbotic or vain... In fact it doesnt equate to that!Unless of course you're dressed for the wrong occasion... Be it going to the pasar or for a date effort should be pumped in accordingly... As the saying goes, 'How can you look good when you dont feel good...' I also believe in the otherwise...'How can you feel good if you dont look good...'Seriously dont you think so?

Wearing the tudung also isnt an excuse to not be up to date fashion wise and whoever says that its expensive to be fashionable...


Im just killing time before the next match lah... Its freaking rainin... How to go down....

happy 42nd months-ry !

Ok Ill go away now.....Toodles yous!

Qu'est-ce que c'est?

Attempting to set the pit on fire...

12 yrs of friendship and counting!

Act cool la...

Waiting for food lah what else...

Girlfriends

Love this picture! Note the 'serious' espressions...

"Keunggulan cinta dari sinar mata...."

Afiah and Hadri

Soccer duh...

Almost everyone ...

Double A agents...

Today is what I call AC-BOYS-AND-GIRLFRIENDS-GET-TOGETHER day....

Firstly thanks to the organisers Nisa,Fidzuan and Hadri....

The only letdown so far was that the BBQ pit couldnt be used cos the arangs simply didnt burn after like 3928748367368 tries by Mat since 4pm till bout pm...Im serious!!

But anyhoos nasib baik Hadri has the Korean BBQ thingy so we used that.... And thats when the war for BBQ space started.... Its sooo funny just observing the guys' antics..... And I dont know what thrill they get from screaming GOAL! when there in fact isnt any situation anywhere near a score then they'll just scream their lungs out creating a domino effect and like ya scaring the whole neighbourhood I think...

At first the message says there'll be me, Aidil,Fik,Had,Nisa,Wan,Fidz,Hich,Asrie, then Afiah and Rahmat was there then Jan,Iza,Aestee came and Kak Fizah and Lia came home...

The 'BBQ pit' was how small so everyone had to 'queue' to cook their share.... So you can imagine those trying to cheat lah....

T'was a slack time... I loved it... They should now consider bringin us on more of their group outings..... Haha.....

Oh ya I hope I'd convinced Hich to come for the FOC and one more..Asrie! Hahaha.... Shall keep pestering them..... Haha

Oh ya so before that watched Safsa's semi's match against like SRC....Hahahahhahaah The score was atrocious I shant even disclose it here.... Hahah....

And before that went to meet Asi at Tampines to pass her a specially made RED-WHITE-BLUE Photojournal for the France team she's liasing with.... I like! But forgot to take picture...Bods me....

Ended today with a walk with Aidil and a taxi ride.... Loves him...Haha...Loves his cute tikus face his new hairstyle is giving him....Haha...

Talkin bout hair... I seriously need to cut my hair...Its too long... Plus its curly so its like tentacles... And I got them all tangled up after cable skiing..... But its so leceh lah to go out just to cut hair... Cutting hair should be done with all the other complement services soo I need somewhere secluded in which after that I can walk around anonymous without tudung and hitch a ride in a taxi.... Any recommendations?

I need to get Coldplay's tics ASAP before I lose all my money to even-I-dont-know-what........


OH OH OH my god just now Jan sang ah! Well ok not sang sang a whole song but its a few lines from a Malay song and boy can he sing... Hahaha.... Shit I hope he doesnt read my blog.... I forgot the title of that song but its a damn old mat jiwang song...Wow! Sedap! Now I know he's de one who azan-ed at KL that time... Idiot...

And Aestee you better faster call me or sth and tell me why you were gigglin sendiri tadi though I think I may know...Hahah UPDATES on what happened after I left!

Ok thats all folks! Hope you guys had a bon weeekend aussi! Toodles!

And I miss Aceh....
