no updates for about 2 weeks.. oo.. shocker! ==

anyways, i was suppose to post sth last weekend.
that post involves photos.

photos i've taken with my camera.

so, my excuse is,

camera battery went dead, saw no point of charging it for 5hours o so just to be able to plug in d usb port to load the photos. and then not touch the camera for a long time..( yesh, a very good reason indeed. pats self on back)

wht else has been going on, well, besides a holiday mission or 2 that is confidential, i have read a few storybooks, watch a few movies, watch the latest batman movie - The Dark Night, which is quite nice i hv to say, @@ and, been going bck and forth frm kch n damai/cultural village for the most times in a month.

in short, yea, i'm enjoying my break, being carefree most of the time, relieved to be rid of a worry that still haunts me, not thinking too much of anything particularly, not completing half of my holiday to-do-list, not panicking about how my results will come out in a few hours but fretting about the lagginess of streamyx that has Killed More than 12 times! sth tat breaks my nerves. owh the frustration..

well, new semester is looming closer at an amazing speed. I hv vowed to prepare myself for another anguishing and painful? new semester by the middle of next week. Hopefully it'll be really enjoyable... @@

this wraps it up for now.
the post is totally random.. and, ..owh nvm...==
toodles for now~

What i like about it is the atmosphere, the action, the ecstasy of scoring, the teamwork, the strategy, the battle plan, the spat, the love... It's crowded, the fans are together, chanting and singing. It's a beauty if u step in a player's shoes and look around the stadium.
So with Euro 2008 coming to an end, i watched a semi-final and the final. Not live of course, i'm not a hooked footie fan. =D Just Repeats. Semis of Russia against Spain which ESP triumphs. But Torres tried too hard in the semis, being the lone striker, always taking the opportunities but never got the goal he deserved. Pity really, and he had to be substituted. But Fabregas was great~ the rest of d team too, of course.
The final, i watched this morning. It was played in Vienna, the Ernst Happel Stadium.
From the performance(balloon ppl releasing balloon and the theme song "Can You Hear Me" by Enrique Iglesias) before the clash of *gladiators to the "we are the Champions" song played at the end. The game started well enough, with both teams taking their turns of the ball possession. It was said that the Germans didn't play well enough. Well i cant tell as i didn't catch a single match of theirs besides the finals, of couse. First half was fine, nothing explosive. But Torres scored the only goal then with a runnning chip shot~ Bravo to him!~ and also, the Captains of both teams, Ballack(GER) and Casillas(ESP) got a yellow card at the same time, for what i think is for talking kindly for a little to long to the irate and irascible referee. (Caisalles didnt even get booked! not even once!) @@ And i think it was the first half also that Ballack got injured on his eye to add to the one at his calf... It was bleeding from an accident with Senna..
early 2nd half, tension arose as Germans started some serious attacking play, finally getting rhythm but they couldn't keep that pace for long and Spain started fighting back and had a pretty solid defence while German's defence was off-balanced.
Overall, I think Spain deserves the win~ It's just not Germany's night. And pity Ballack, who has been in a Lot of finals but always ending as the runner-up. Fabregas of Spain started in the lineup instead of the substitution bench. Villa's not playing due to a thigh injury picked up in the Semifinals, Silva was good~, so is Alonso, Xavi, Senna, Casillas of course~! German side, Klose didnt got the opportunity to score. Neither did Podolski, Ballack, Schweinsteiger, and the others managed to hit the net. Lehman did his job alright though. They all digged in but it wasn't enough, and it was not their match to win this time around.
And credits to Spain, who has a winning streak of 22games since end of 2006! This is also the most high-spirited, determined and a true unit spanish team that has not surfaced for 24years o so.. and Casillas is also the first goalkeeper captain to lift the Euro cup~ After they won, they celebrate by going to their fans for thanks of support and getting their country's flags. Then they tossed their 69 year old coach, going 70 in July, into the air a couple of times~ at the back of my mind, i was like, .. Be careful! =D Then they made a line of honor for the Germans to receive their medals before going up themselves to get their gold~ When the Cup was passed to Casillas, the captain(on the stage), the theme song of Pirates of the Carribean played in the background.. @@ incidently one of my favs, before "We are the Champions" rolled in when they walked to the field for photoshots~
Football, rather fantastic, don't you think? (*imagining most readers I Know shaking their heads)

This morning, i checked my car's water volume and oil with my pa. We were yawning all the way because we were very bored, i guess. After that, i went to peel fruits and
Secara Spontan
He asked me, Wanna go to the movies?
at first i thought he was joking and couldn't suppress a smile but he was Serious!~
so I asked what movie and he said "Wanted" (which i didn't know was airing until a friend told me the night before. & I've also been meaning to catch up with the movies on air and wanted to watch Made of Honor, Hancock and such....) Then he said there should be one at 11am and went immediately upstairs to get dressed. I was..@@>?
So i checked the time schedule and found that it was airing at 10.45am and went instantly to get ready. It was 10.20am then.
And so we left, me and my dad, to the Movies. That's not something that happens frequently.
We got there just in time, bought the tickets and went in.
I gotta say, the cineplex's chair is not fit for pa... It literally sank and flop down with an unpleasant noise when my dad sat on it.. and he clearly looked oversized in it.. and i couldn't afford to keep a giggle in.. ehehe..
the movie, well, both of us know not what it's about. I only know that it's a spy gig and my dad, an action movie.
Spoiler Warning

well the movie was pretty good in terms of action and the cast members. The style in which it was told was nice too. But the story on the other hand didn't appeal so much, Especially the ending.. with everyone dying (those innocent assassins) and him, Wesley played by James McAVOY, the only one living. And how does he make a decoy of Himself, in his office, to fool Sloan and shoot from miles and miles away!? I mean, i could get it when his dad did it, cause those decoys were not His Dad.
anyway, the ending part's the only bummer. The rest were pretty okay. Pa commented it was like a fairytale and it's like Wesley's dreaming all the way. Lol.. Cant help but agree a bit on that but I've heard that it was created based on a comic book miniseries, so i guess anything's possible there...

Anyways, I like Freeman, Jolie, who always excel in these kinda movies (i like her jacket~), the gunsmith, the butcher as well as the healer dude and his rats~ James did an overall good job acting as Wesley.

<----(Picture) Wesley's the main character but he's in the background. Jolie's too hot? =D

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What else was new today?
i slammed my elbow into my door. Hope i didnt do any serious damage to my bone now because It still hurts BigTime!
With so many plans changing, it's hard to handle.
And i'm still a bit pissed at *them.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gona rain hard soon. Have to stop here else i'll fail to post this. Connection getting weaker by the minute.

i'm lamenting. U have been warned not to read..

it's a bored tiresome night.
i r having a hard time loading the compose page.
streamyx has irked me to a point of no redemption.
been a few days already...
what can i say, at least it wasn't as screwed when i Really do Need it. I mean, at times i did my assignments, studies, researches n such.
but i r loading games now... and they get disconnected frequent enough to have petty me on the edge of breaking my goody two shoe heart? of not swearing.
at times i couldn't even Load a Google homepage, let alone any other web pages.!
well, heard kim's having poor connection too ..
i know i'm not alone but does it really hurt to rant?! D

so what's the purpose to this post?
well, refer to my 1st sentence wont u? - I r bored.

anyway, short recap of what had gone on during this day.
i slept in d afternoon! for the 1st time! since i enrolled into U.
and party in the evening.
that's about it really.. besides reading n tv-watching...
pretty much a laid back Saturday, something i haven't had for months~

as for the back/body/shoulder/neck ache, much of them have miraculously gone after my hour and a half long afternoon nap.
conclusion, afternoon naps are good..>?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
y do i even try when they don't give a damn. That's why there are no arrangements.
