Oh whoa
"Werner...Werner...?" No response. I thought my brother would be back home by then when I return back from a self-all-day town trip but unfortunately, there was no reply back on the other end. I left the rice cooker on for the couple of hours to keep the rice warm but it was all futile. The note on the fridge I left as well was left there to be read by nobody. Okay, stupid. That was yesterday. If that wasn't bad enough, it rained for almost the whole day today as well. It rained cats and dogs, cars and trucks, forests and jungles until there was a low level of flood in Singapore for the hundredth and sixth time. I believe the population of ants have deeply decreased, so have those other irritating insects who can't fly and go more than 2cm above. Haha, DIE like you deserve to and I couldn't agree more with Lam Fung, that we can just take a dip at the pond near E1's canteen when it rains cats and dogs, except that we wouldn't die like those deservedly-so-can't-fly-high insects. Tomorrow's the day where we all appreciate and thank our ever so thoughtful teachers and I won't be going back to see any teachers. Not that 8/9 of them remember me anyway. Oh well, I pray for better weather tomorrow. Keeping the faith, Marj

A great ending to a close
 All the right reasons to be happy on my lay-off. A great 4-0 win over the supposedly-strong Finnish team in the Send-off Series and Skipper Lily got her 126th career goal, awesome awesome. Lindsay Tarpley, Boxxy and O'Reilly got on the score sheet as well for the other 3 goals. Great game. What's better than a 38-2 shots on goal? Could have been more exciting had ESPN2 not died on me but reading through chunks of little para texts on how the game went every minute was good enough since ESPN2 was not working (for all the wrong reasons!). In less than 24 hours, the USWNT (US's Women National team) will be flying to China for the Women's World Cup. The win over Finland is definitely a great start to the World Cup and everything seems to be going well for the team, except for Abby who is out with a jammed toe from the match. I can hardly wait to watch in anticipation for the Women's World Cup. Till then, Marj Labels: Send-off Series, Women's Football

Finally settled
Real Madrid agree deal for Heinze
A statement on the Real Madrid website, confirmed by Man Utd, said the clubs had agreed a fee and Heinze will sign a four-year contract. The Argentine had his heart set on a move to Liverpool and took his case to a Premier League tribunal after United refused to sell him to their rivals. But after a League panel ruled against Heinze, the 29-year-old agreed to join Real for a reported £8m fee. The move brings to an end Heinze's three-season stay at Old Trafford. The defender proved a big hit with United fans when he arrived but after recovering from a serious knee injury at the start of the 2005/6 season, he found his first-team place occupied by Patrice Evra. Liverpool tabled a bid of more than £6.8m in the belief United would be forced to sell after quoting that figure in a letter to Heinze's agent. However, United refused to let the defender join their bitter rivals and though he considered an appeal against the Premier League's ruling, Heinze instead opted for a move to Spain. Heinze will undergo a medical in Madrid before completing the move which will see him replace veteran Brazilian Roberto Carlos, who left Barnabeu in the summer. Chelsea lost their winger to Real Madrid too, time to celebrate!! Labels: EPL transfers, real madrid new signings

It's a fact.
It's been quite a while since I last stepped into LYnC... my attendance have been inconsistent because I have been really busy and hectic. Cell was led by Pastor Joyce today as Denise is busy and away with having to structure exam papers for her school. We talked about what is having fun and then clubbing was the first thing that came to the mind of everyone in the cell. Pastor Joyce then asked each of us if we ever did go clubbing and all of us shook our heads. From there it led to what is a Christian's life like and we all talked about a christian's life being square because there are many things that we are "forbidden" to do and then Daphne and Hannah shared about their friends perceiving them as boring people because when asked to go clubbing, they reject and stand firm on their choice. Also because they are people who will not go partying (really partying, not any general party) and that when it comes to exams, they even have the time to go to church when they are suppose to put in more time to study for their Prelims and 'A' levels. I am glad that I do not have any friends who tell me that I shouldn't be a Christian because of this, because I cannot go clubbing, I cannot smoke and drink, etc. I am really thankful to God that instead I have friends who are understanding to my religion and know what are my dos and donts. I really really thank God for today's sharing in cell, especially from Lynette and I was really really "enlightened" from what she has shared in cell. It's true, that it is indeed in a way, okay for Christians to club however, one must know their individual limits as to what is right and what is wrong. It is okay if we do club for the sake of experiencing. Clubbing is indeed more to than just drinking and dancing and it's an exposure to "porn" for us all when we enter that culture. This, we must not make a habit out of it to go as often as possible or make it a routine weekly or daily or monthly or yearly.. and the list goes on. "What makes you go to church?" was the question that was poured towards us next and that question did strike me for awhile. Some said because it's something they enjoy doing, some said it's because it's all in the family and for me, I said that because I was brought up in this religion since the day I entered the world. My parents did try to change church (relocation because it's nearer to home to avoid being late for sunday school classes, back then) and my sister and I insisted that we stick to St. Andrews Cathedral, the church that we have been attending all the while since were kids. I could see that my mother was hoping that we did nod our heads to the change but no, she also knew that there was no chance we will nod our heads anyway. What makes me go to church is the weekly routine that I have been having since being a kid as well. From attending sunday school kids to sunday school 8am classes and then to LYnC now, it's all a habit already and yes, it is also something that I enjoy doing weekly. Singing songs and praises to God above, getting together with my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, enjoying time together though I can hardly attend LYnC now, knowing God's word and reading his word... For all these, I am thankful till this day, for everything, for being brought up into the right family and in this religion because I know, that He has everything planned for me and He, is the one that I can find peace in in my time of stress and needs. Amen! It's time I get some sleep for tomorrow.

The unpeace.
Because everyone in this house can't live happily together, not even for two days and I hate it. I am starting to get very tired of you quarrelling with your son everyday. Not only quarrelling but also disturbing him here and there and I don't understand why the 2 of you are always so childish. There isn't a day where I do not see the 2 of you not arguing. One of you is matured enough and the other one of you is well, a grown up and moreover, are men not suppose to be more matured than women? Why? Why!? I am tired of you, being so annoying and nosey at times. Just leave me alone and so what if I use dad's phone at times to make a call? Because I have used so much of my outgoing, get it? Why do you have to bother? I know you are "teaching" me and that I will make it into a bad habit but you can just don't care right? I know what I'm doing. Because you are already working and so you have a good income that can make you spend all you want but what about me? I'm still schooling and my allowances doesn't match highly with yours. Can you please think? I've been hoping that you will be a neat person but coming back seeing your sleeping clothes strewn on your bed or any where killed my hopes. I am also tired of you putting on a black face each time you reach home. I don't understand why are you like that. Every time you do that and then the old man come to me and say, "Well she is always like that. Can you ask her why?" Well yes can you tell me why are you always like that when you are at home? I know that there are certain house works that we didn't do at times but other than that can you please please put on a smile and also talk with Dad at least? I hardly see the 2 of you having a happy conversation and it' pretty sad. I don't even know why I am still in the house despite all these happenings that is already happening... well I think I'm here because this is my home, where I live and eat and sleep. I want the other reason to be because I have a happy family who can live happily every single day or at least for most of the days in the week every week. Is it so difficult to get along with each other? and yea Hi Brad. Labels: family matters

Is it fair?
Forget it. People don't seem to really think hard afterall.
1:53 PM
What now?
It's really upsetting when people don't seem to give a hoot after you have put in so much effort to do so much. Ya ya so it's all my fault or what when people don't care? Am I being too harsh or am I not saying the right thing? Am I being too lenient still? Am I not saying the right things? Am I saying the right things at the wrong time? Am I not doing the right things? Am I not doing a proper job as a captain? I always ask myself these questions because I feel that it's left unquestioned and unsettled. I hate it when people get so fed up when I start talking to the team about what the team has done wrong or whatever that is that I have mentioned earlier after training. What is there to get fed up about? Am I not right in saying those? Aren't those not true at all or you think I'm fabricating all of it just for no reason or just to poke it at all of you? I'm so tired of it all and I hate to scold the team like that but if I don't then people will start climbing over my head. I'm so sick of it all and I had enough of all those nonsense week after week. I have nothing else to say but have anger and be crushed.

Just be if you need to.
I was seriously stuck and I just didn't know what was the best solution. I know I shouldn't have left I know I shouldn't have talked in that tone I know I shouldn't have been that way I know everyone's in the same situation as I do I, holding such a position shouldn't be setting this kind of example and I have been a bad captain in one way or another today. I will not mind if anyone is angry with me because you have the right to be, the every right to be. I didn't do a good job at all, my bad and it's all my fault. I'm sorry team for the way I acted today, Marj. Labels: self-reflection

I can't believe this.
First it was one side of my black adidas soccer socks that went missing and now, my black colored pair of kelme socks went missing like that. I did bring it home and I did throw it into the basket for washing and for 2 weeks it didn't come back dry. Ok fine, I will have to go buy another 2 pairs of black socks. For the third time I am re-buying the black pair of adidas soccer socks and I'll be buying either the diadora or again the kelme black socks I guess. This is serious unnecessary spending >:( and this makes me very angry. Off to find the kelme socks, Marj Labels: anger
