andriy shevchenko

not sure how many people who read my blog knows him but he's the main reason why i suppport ac milan. last nite, or rather this morning at 2.40am was the champions league final between ac milan n liverpool. although i was so dead tired, i still dragged my arse off my comfortable bed. watched the match n was ecstatic when paolo maldini (2nd reason y i like ac milan) scored after 1 minute of playing. by half time, they were leading 3-0. god can be so cruel at times. shevchenko scored before half time, but it was offside hence not counted. i was sad but thought to myself, as long as milan wins n he's happy, it doesn't matter. never ever did i expect liverpool to come back from behind n score 3 goals in a matter of 6 minutes!! it was disappointing but by the time liverpool scored the 2nd goal, i knew it was over for milan. everyone expected shevchenko to score at least a goal, but after the shot that was offside, jamie carragher did a great job of defending against shevchenko. ...

zoo

due to vesak day yesterday, we had a public holiday today. didn't have any plans for the day actually, but my beloved surprised me by suggesting that we go to the zoo! i've always wanted to visit the zoo with him and today, my dream was fulfilled. :) weather was pretty hot though there were dark clouds while we were driving there. arrived at the zoo at 4pm just to find out that we only had 2 hours to walk the whole area coz they were closing at 6pm to prepare for night safari. we took pictures of the animals n walked around the area, chatting, looking at animals n just relaxing n having fun. memories of going to the zoo with the sim gang 2 years ago came back to me. :p while we were halfway through, it started to rain but luckily it was more of a drizzle. we ignored the raindrops n carried on our way. think the whole drizzle lasted only less than 5 minutes. as it was getting humid n we were perspiring like mad, we decided to buy a drink. drinks there are SO expensive. $2.80 for...

platonic friendships

sometimes i simply don't understand. at the kind of era we're in right now, why is it that people still don't believe that a guy n a gal being doesn't necessarily have to be a couple n that they can be good friends? at my work place, i've become quite close to a guy who's last day of work is next friday. we get along well coz we have a lot in common. tom stays across the street from him so sometimes he gives me a lift to tom's place. we both do not have much to do at work coz he's resigning n i'm still new so we chat with each other often. he's also into wrestling n doesn't like durians - just like me. n he also has more gal friends than guy friends, just like i have more guy friends than gal friends (coz i've got such a boyish character). he n tom are even in the same club! that's how coincidental things are. so, a friendship was developed and we talk about anything and everything. his 'hot' dates, tom(my bf), our families, e...

making friends~

i must admit that it's good experience where i'm working at. i'm ok with the job though it's kinda admin n not that related to accounting, which is what i studied. overall, things are still alright n i'm still learning from my mentor - anne marie!!! haha. ya.. it's nice to work side by side with someone u know. i'm making friends with the people there. a few are quite friendly so atmosphere is pretty good. got a few other SIM people there whom i know, which makes it even better. so, i'm doing rather fine there. :) i've got 10 days leave to clear from aug to dec. still planning what to do n when to take leave. i've actually thought of a few days to take but it clashes with another colleague's leave so.. sighz.. mus slowly plan now. i wanna take a holiday, probably go overseas for holiday but have no idea where to go yet. probably check with my family n some friends to see if anyone will be going for hols. hehe. my colleagues will be going for ...

2nd day of work..

at work now.. today's my 2nd day of work. overall, things are still quite ok but i'm getting a little bored. guess it's coz my rush period is in the morning til 12 noon n i've got the whole afternoon with nothing much to do. can be boring.. haven't done anything much the whole day except some small things. other than that, i've been stoning half the afternoon. anne's going on course tomorrow and on thursday. will be even more bored coz she won't be around to teach me stuff. sighz.. people here are too busy to chat with me anyway. so it's really quite boring. nothing much to talk to them about anyway. dunno what to start chatting about. sighz.. feeling pretty tired coz muz wake up much earlier than last time to come work. reach office at about 8.25am which is half an hour before i start work. think i need to head to the library to borrow books again so that i can read when i'm having my breakfast before i start work n on my way home. haha. hope i ...

accident & football

had my 1st car accident yesterday morning on my way to work. well, not that i was the driver but i was in the car that met with the accident. my cousin, ann, was driving us to work as per normal. we were to turn out from a small road so had to look out for traffic. she stopped n was looking out for traffic when suddenly we jerked forward. thank god for the safety belt or i might have whacked my head against the front. got out of the car and the idiotic cab driver accused us of jamming on the brakes. "hello!!! we stopped the car for so freaking long before u whacked us from the back manz!!! dumb idiot!" - obviously i didn't say that but was thinking of it. haha. this cab driver.. how do i describe him? it was as if he's in some major business or he's always in some accidents. he's got 2 handphones n a digicam.. all in his pouch!!! my goodness! so professional ya? the rear of his cab has got a dent as well. shows how 'fantastic' this driver is! haha. thi...

4 more days..

4 more days n it's over for me here. i'll be heading a new direction, doing something else n hopefully like what i do more than what i'm doing here now. jus wish that i can find the path for myself.. the path that i wanna go.. n 4 more days, i won't be able to lunch with my boy anymore. sighz.. always makes me sad at the thought. yes, like jean said, i'm poisoned.. poisoned by love. never have i ever felt like that. i love to make my boy happy, buy him nice things, think of him everytime something happens to me (good or bad). n i'm very upset everytime he gets injured. he sprained his ankle during football on sunday n i'm unhappy about it coz i'm worried for him. seeing him limp makes my heart ache.. so i try not to make him walk too much nor make him carry too much stuff. this weekend n the extra day of rest due to labour day has been good. spent my saturday with my boy as usual. went to do our own stuff n had dinner with dad coz it was his bday. after ...
