drifting,floating,surviving

i have been thinking a lot...this past 1 month was working my way and learning the curve and everything.. and sometimes it's taking the toll on me.. and the more i am actually on sports, the more knowledge i am losing.. i dunno why.. grr.. wat is wrong with me of late?

i have no watsoever motivation to work and getting sick now is not helping at all..
and now, i am wanting to continue back learning french or spanish course becasue i want to be able to converse in many different languages..
Also, seeing the community or social life here, it got me thinking that i seriously want to give back to the society and work with the community more..

but that would have to take a longer vision and mission to be achieve.. right now.. am thinking on the worldvision.org..

but back to sports, world cup is coming in 3 days time.. i shud be excited but i am not..
i dunno why.. and i am surviving in this big, big, cruel place..

mixed feelings

am seriously exhasuted, tired and everything u can name of. exciting week of local sports but working my ass off so hard for this week and finally my day off today and monday.. but i will not get the rest i wanted cause i got to go back to penang for some prayers on monday and back again to kl on that evening itself.
i dun even have time for "me" time already as work is taking my whole time. with the amount of news we are having now, there is no way the schedule could be changed. and next month is even more like a killer month with the World cup and it has been confirmed we are showing 35 matches LIVE.. so there u go.. can u imagine this???
and things happened that i cant even voice out.. plus could u imagine this situation for u to ponder upon. football finishes at 10.45pm. and live news at 11.00pm with only 10 minutes left to edit, putting the graphics and updating hell lots of results. sigh. it's awesome but then.. there shud be a limit to this.
but oh well, i should not complain much.. but haihs.. it could have been a great week had malaysia qualified to the final of thomas cup. but then.. they did their best it is just that their best wasnt BEST enough though.

Congratulations also to the women's team of South Korea for lifting the Uber Cup. u r awesome!!!! beating china is no mean feet but u did it convincingly!!! and see how that arrogant Li Yong Bo said in the newspapers... padan muka.

will china's dominance continue in the thomas cup final vs indonesia? let us all find out 2pm live @ so many channels.. but if u want extra post match interview.. then be sure to tune in to astro arena@801.

=)
oh p/s : did i even mentioned that my favourite football club lost by a single point? blah. we will come back stronger next season. all for now. i need my much needed BREAK!!

the BLUES finally Rules after 3 years

1stly, hats off to Chelsea for being crowned the Barclays Premier League Champion of 2009/2010. U deserve it.. *tat's all, no more than that*

2ndly, Malaysia beat Nigeria 5-0 in Thomas Cup without needing to go on court because the Nigerian team did not arrived for the match. I still thought the nigerians will be coming and play as this will serve as a warm up for malaysia.. but now, the thomas cup team got to work extra hard vs Japan for the next group match.. Hopefully malaysia wins... :)

3rd, malaysia lost to australia in the hockey azlan shah cup. sad. I tot malaysia could win. Now malaysia is out for the semis spot.. we should have done better against pakistan the other day.

4th, hectic month but it is kind of sad to see Hockey is beyond malaysia's reach now.. Hope that the Thomas Cup team can produce some magic and win perhaps? although, many are saying it's a miracle to even qualify to semis.. sigh. but again, i am hoping malaysia will go to the FINAL!!!!

It's May Already!

Time really flies by so fast.. it's May already and my 1st time working on 1st may, labour day and working straight for 5 days after i was recall to work on my off day yesterday because they were changing into a new system and we are broadcasting in HD.. but too bad, viewers is still going to see the channel in SD... but our teach and equipments are all in HD so u will bound to see all those pictures terlampau big in your TV.. haha..

Cheng, sorry that i was not able to meet up with u when i was back the other week.. only 2 days and not enough time as i was quite tight up with family stuff to settle also.. seriously i shud be back more days next time.. perhaps a week, if not sure not enough time want.. haihs. makan all penang food also tak sempat... GRRR..

wanted to post a comment in your new post on the outing with Jian Ming and Selina, but i somehow dunno why i cant post it there.. apasal ar? hehe..

==========================================================

Ok, the reason me writing this post is to express out how my fave team is back in the hunt for the Barclays Premier League title.

After the champions league exit at the hand of Bayern Munich, it was so hard to swallow but life has to go on, you win some, you lose some.. you aint going to win all the time..

and then we drew at blackburn last weekend. it was an agony and i was certain enough that we are out of the title race with Chelsea winning and widening up the points.. and then this week was exceptional.. manchester derby is something you do not want to miss out.. and so, my colleague and I decided to stay back at office after our news at 8pm to watch the match..
and again, we were frustrated that it is going to be a second consecutive stalemate for United.. and with 30 seconds to go, i was muttering to my colleague 30 seconds left on the stoppage time, do u think we can produce something to win it??.. and the rest like they say is history... Paul Scholes pop-up to head in a beautiful cross by Evra.. it was that fantastic. and we were shouting and jumping mad at office. there were only 2 of us in the newsroom, the rest of ppl was upstairs as they have a live show going on with Rugby Asian 5 Nations.. but we were estatic.. we could not believe it.. we finally got that luck and we are now a point behind chelsea after surprisingly they lost to Spurs last nite.. and with 3 games to go, it's GAME ON.
and TODAY at work could not be much better scripted.. it's again, my colleague and I on shift on sunday.. and both of us are MAN U fans.. and she was getting ready Glory Glory Man United Song to be played at her desktop when those Liverpool's and Chelsea's fan walk in to office.. and we couldnt have chosen a better moment.. our big boss who is also a liverpool fan was also in office.. and we played it out LOUD.. and liverpool's fan were closing their ears and pretending that they did not hear anything at all... and the fact tat they perli us Man U fans when we lost to Bayern.. , it was a sweet revenga and definitely a payback time.. Big Boss was laughing/smiling when the song were being played.. haha.. we were satisfied... but again, we are hoping, Liverpool to do us a favour when they meet Chelsea on the 1st of May..

in short, chelsea still has the upper hand now with 1 point advantage and if they do win the League Title, i will be happy for them but Man United will be fighting all the way till d last second and not giving up. even if we did not win, i had an awesome time around with a bunch of ppl who are FUN! today certainly was a good day working!

oh, btw, we should also be proud that OUR mixed Doubles pair won at the Asian Badminton Championship in New Delhi, India.. a great TONIC and a BOOST to our BADMINTON SQUAD! they fought all the way and i am so proud of THEM! congratulations Liu Ying and Peng Soon! =)
and also to the runner up for the WOMEN DOUBLES team of Vivian and Khe Wei...

Nicol David also won in the finals of the Cayman Island Open beating 2nd seed, jenny duncalf in straight sets.

Congratulations to our national heroes and many more wins for them with the upcoming Commonwealth Games and Asian Games this year!

Cheers to our Malaysian Sporting Heroes!

I cant think of wat title to put for this entry.
*sports update*
Malaysia lost to China in Thomas Cup Semifinal, I thought we should have won it but damm it.. we lost. I am disappointed.
Nicol David won the British Open, congratulations.
Ferrari winning races, Yay!
Man United crowned British Premier League Champion, YAY YAY YAY!
anything else? i cant think of any already. I am missing out on everything except working.

I will also shut myself for 2 months. i do not want to know about any politics and news about malaysia.call me naive but really, i do not have access to internet all the time and i cant depend on mainstream media to provide me the 'oh-so-one-sided' news. So to be fair to the alternative news, i will shut myself. hahahaha.
I saw glimpse of news that Raja Petra was caught. I saw the parliament debate where the talk about the Pig issue where PKR was labelled as Projek Khinzir Nasional and the opposition hit back with BN as Babi Negara. I feel that they are so stupid, why want to debate on things like that. There are so many things to talk about.. wat about the inflation rate??? what has the government done??? I remember i saw the ruling gov promised tat if they won they will try to fight the inflation rate from rising? but really what do we have so far? i cannot see anything except that we are importing more rice from thailand to keep the stock of rice at a higher rate????? blerghh.. enough said, i dun want to know anything on politics in malaysia for this 2 months until i am back in Penang. and yeah, talking about penang, bloggers are uniting to support the Penang FOR Trams project.. I wanna support it!!!! Go Penang, Go Penang Tram!!!! wuhuuuu.. this is so much cooler..
there is more to work than wat i wrote on my previous entry. Certainly language barrier is difficult for me apart from my zero skills in editing. You see, i am an idiotic in mandarin and cantonese and i rarely could speak english to others cause they might not understand me and I might not understand them in mandarin. I am trying utterly hard to grasp this dialect and language. It will take time, but i am trying real hard. More drama but i am just lazy to elaborate on that. Maybe later or never.

Now I shall try to enjoy working, and eating nice and cheap food in Petaling Jaya.

More food on my next entry!
