updates

it's almost 2.5 months since i last blog..

what happened since then ??

My favourite team won the Barclay's Premier League, lost out in the final of the champions league to Barcelona and was a semifinalist of the FA CUP losing to neighbours, Manchester City..

Then in Tennis French Open , my favourite, Roger Federer lost to Rafael Nadal in the final and just only, Federer lost to Tsonga in Wimbledon Quarter Final, even though he was leading 2 sets to none.. So now am looking forward to the last grand slam of the year, US OPEN this coming September...

Personal Front : My grandmother passed away at the age of 95.. so it's been a journey back and forth to Penang 3 times in a space of 2 months, the most i have done since coming down to KL for 1 year plus...

Working Wise : gone through ups and down of life so there is nothing much to say...

and i am excited of going back to study, not study as in STUDY.. but learning new language real soon.. it's hoping it's going to be FUN, FUN , FUN! :) :) :)

and i want to go for a vacation so badly!!!!! OCTOBER I CANT WAIT FOR YOU TO COME!

Another Epic Wimbledon Final

I watched last year Wimbledon men singles final where roger federer lost to rafael nadal. And this year, he was playing second best to Andy Roddick.. but unfortunately for Andy Roddick.. one mistake.. and roger federer won.. in another epic 5 sets thriller.. 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 6-3 and 16-14. 

it was really really an incredible game of tennis.. I was rooting for Roger Federer all this while and i felt sad for roddick for he played a magnificient game. he was really unlucky. He should have won the tiebreak on the 2nd set.. but he blew his chances away. I think the 2nd set was the turning point and federer gain momentum from there.. and won it.. of course.. roddick didnt give up though.. he came back in the fourth set and managed to break federer to win 6-3 on the fourth set.. then on the final set. you can see that both were very strong.. physically and mentally. no one wanted to give in.. federer could not even break on roddick's serve and it looks more likely that roddick will win they game. Unfortunately.. towards the 3oth game.. after 4 hr..15mins on court.. Federer finally managed to break roddick. and championship point to roger federer. 

Federer was again delighted.. and now crowned wimbledon champion for the 6th time and become the GREATEST Player EVER in tennis history.. surpassing Pete Sampras record of 14th major... 15th Major for Roger Federer... and hopefully counting =).. when he lost out on last year wimbledon.. more doubt whether he could come back stronger to win another major again.. and then came the US Open... he won against andy murray.. it was his 13th major.. then australian open.. he lost in the final to nadal.. but still he came back to win the French Open, finally won the only grandslam he have not won before.. so there was it.. his 14th Grandslam.. and now, of course.. winning the Wimbledon 2009 to take his tally to 15th Grandslam and thus becoming THE greatest tennis player of all time. What a magnificent athlete he is.. Congratulations, Roger Federer..

and to Andy Roddick. i really do feel sorry for him.. He was really the better player today.. but luck was not on his side... he lost it.. but i think he would come back stronger and hopefully try to win another grandslam again. All the Best.

so there you go.. my 2 weeks of glu-ing myself in front of the TV watching Wimbledon..and of course.. due to the time different.. i have to stay up till wee morning watching it.. but it was good nonetheless... =)

on another note, i actually did attend a job interview.. i went for the 2nd intw with the MD.. but sadly i did not go well prepared.. it was my fault.. (i went with the mentality.. if i didnt get the job.. never mind.. i just am going for fun and experience).. and of course.. it back-fired on me.. i was low on confidence, nervous and everything negative.. i should have done better. i am at fault cause i think i would have gotten the job had i did research on the theory side.. sigh.. sigh.. but i shall learnt from this and improved myself.. i really regretted it.. and wat the MD said.. is still very very fresh in my mind.. sigh.. 

again now.. i really really dunno what i want in life.. all this while.. i though i knew what i want.. but now.. i am in dilemma again.. and not knowing where i would go from here.. sigh..  i have to come back stronger and job hunt again. =)

i am excited to know that my fave team has progress to the final of the champions league for the second consecutive year. funnily enough i had a dream last night that they were 2 goals down in Emirates and finally they scored the last minute(away goal) that put them through to the finals. But my dream was the opposite of the reality. Haha..

And i wish i would be able to purchase the ticket to watch them in Malaysia in July. Anyone wanna come along??? 

since i am talking on sports.. might as well write something about sports..

ferrari is not doing good in F1 at the moment. i did not expect Brawn GP to be this GOOD! congratulations to them. maybe F1 needed something new so that people could continue watching it... 

Tennis- hmmm.. again my fave player isnt doing good.. and i sure bet Nadal is winning French Open again this year but then again i hope others like Murray n Djokovic will give him a good run or mayb Federer could come out with something Magnificent? hehe...

Guess that is all about it.. 

actually i am wondering what have i done for the past 3 uni Years? I seem so blur and uni life didnt really got into me and i dont really made that many friends and gotten involved in the activities in the Uni.. maybe i should write one post on my 3 uni years next to inspire my comeback to blogging. =)

September 30, 2008

it's the end of the month already. another 1 month then i will have my finals. time flies so fast. and it has been raining for two days already. sigh.sigh.sigh.

I dont think i have blog any on football+tennis+F1 in a while.
My fave football team is on the way climbing back to the top of premier league. thats a good sign.
Federer won his 1st grand slam of the year at the US open at the beginning of september. YAY.. since that many people doubt he cant and that Nadal is on the making to be the greatest player. blergh. Roger Federer is the BEST! Then last weekend first F1 night race was a disapointment for Ferrari. The race was great but it wasnt to be for both ferrari drivers.. sigh.sigh. hoping Felipe massa could catch up the 7 points gap between him and Hamilton.

I have 2 essay to write but i do not know what or how to write. so i will think about it later.

went to the freedom film fest last weekend. Wawasan Open Uni was awesome. the film was awesome. the debate was awesome. I'm glad i went.
oh before i forgot, Mamma Mia was great!

my Fave TVB Drama, Moonlight Resonance have ended and the new drama was not that nice at all. So now, i dun have any series to entertain myself with.

since i have nothing better to write.. I'm wishing my muslim friends..

Bonne Fete de l'Eid-Ue-Fitr (Selamat Hari Raya).

i cant wait for all the lemang, ketupat, nasi beryani, tomato and cookies!. =)

2nd last semester

Yesterday or rather the wee morning hours just now, i watched the Wimbledon men singles final between federer and nadal. Federer were really on the brink of defeat when he lost the 1st 2 sets and he bounce back on the 3rd and 4th set and on the decider set, Nadal won in a match that lasted for almost 5 hours. with around 1.5 hours of play suspended due to rain. I watch till 4.30am. and federer did not win. sigh. but seriously, he wasnt playing tat well, Nadal look more energetic and have the desire and hunger to win then Federer. so congrats to him.

So having only 3 hours sleep, i woke up and get ready to Uni. the 1st day of sem when you are expected to reg the courses online.(p/s- already there is edaftar but i dunno for wat reason we have to reg language courses manualy) so, i did reg my language course and head to my sch to wait an hour for the slip to be printed out and I am done.

Its weird, time really fly fast. you see those 1st year coming looking so blur and was asking where the classes were located. and then it relfect on myself when i 1st enter. and you meet all your coursemates, all who are back from the internship, talking on their experience and all. some really really enjoyed it. I dunno whether i did enjoy or not but mine was only okay. please dun grade us cause i rather have pass/fail only.

then few i met actually said i put on weight. maybe its due to my over indulgence of food while i did my internship. hehe. but it's okay.

since i still free, i am uploading pictures i took while i am in Kl.

OvER

Exam is finally over. *yay* turn, turn and dance around. but did badly lar. sigh. what to do. cant change anything d. even if i were to turn back the time, i dun think i ever want that to happen le.. ahaha. whatever is over is OVER d.

tomoro is the D-day for Mclaren and Ferrari.. Hopefully Kimi is going to retain his title and not to be snatched by LH just like tat. LH because i hate this guy so much. so arrogant. only 1st year in motorracing nia act like shit/.. saying he cant live in his country anymore.. , too much pressure this and that. stupid la.. you think you are so smart is it? hope you don even have any chance of winning any title. and yeah because of him fernando no longer with mclaren, though i dun like alonso.. but now i think he is much better than LH. darnyou!

on tennis, would you ever predict that Roger Federer is the man tat is being beaten lately. 2 times in a row by david nalbandian.. and now, fernando gonzalez. this is going to be the best master cup in many years,... past few years has been only dominated by federer.. am looking forward to it.

oh.. and this weekend football match between ISRAEL AND RUSSIA IS GOING TO DETERMINE WHETHER ENGLANG QUALIFIED FOR THE WORLD CUP OR NOT!!!!! I got a strong feeling the would qualify but another part of me think they would not qualify.

Have a wonderful holiday.. i'm sure i am having a good one..
