Im Watching You ROAR AgainI didnt even think that the match against the Thais are going to be even hotter than the one in Malaysia and what miracle that the Grandstand tix(15 bucks mind you) are fully sold out..and the child tix are sold out just in one day and a night.
There's nothing to be happy if you cant get the tickets..but really,Football Fever is running wild and high all over again in Singapore. amazing! and i never expected it to run wild again! Its totally different from 2 years back when we Proudly thrash the Indonesian inside out in their Senayan homeground and in the return leg in Kallang, we won them again.but the crowd was still unsatisfying and we were sunk from the loud chants by the everly patriotic indonesian fans..tho losing! It may be the result of the change of names on the competition as in from Tiger Cup to Asean Football Championship coz tiger sounds more a-Singapore-competition and Friendly Cup whereas Asean sounds more simply Asean and rather sounding a more serious competition. And nothing beats the passion of Football when the opponent come in floods when they know they're getting verbal screwed up again in our ground.And a thai fan came to me infront of the Stadium just now to take a photo of him with the word
Singapore Sports Council.Which i dont see anything interesting about it really.Let them be thais,myanmars,viets,malaysians. None of them managed to escape free from the verbal abuse and luckily so far no riots happen.
and riots are so common in the balkans just because of Football and its only clubs.just like the rivalry between Dinamo Moscow and Dinamo Kiev. Nations apart,but the rivalry is just as bitter.
and please remind yourself.its FOOTBALL! not SOCCER!..the word 'soccer' only exist in the american world.
And i think i have a bloody pussy skin again right now.and im going to change it real soon!

Nicholas,Joel,Joash -Im getting tired of this names having volunteered myself out of the luxury and liberty of not having to wake up at 6 on weekdays have really gave me a harsh counter-setback of what seems like 5 days a week of living hell. I have to push ego aside right now and straight to the fact,no secrets that im beginning to get tired of this job.I could nver wish for a perfect day whereby all students would be have soo soo well as long as primary 1 kids still remain in the list. and im having trouble controlling the words i say right now as my words are getting more and more harsh towards the kids than usual.and im just afraid that i would let go some words that would'nt be pleasing to the ear towards students,authorities or even myself. im just suprised that there havnt been cases of tears shed by the kids from the
brutal mouth of mine. and hopefully that would never happen. and names,names,names..
i can almost spot right now which kid behaves well and which one does not just by the name.Yeah yeah dont judge a book by its cover what crap..but its really true that i can spot on which or who to watch out for.
and expectations from the office is really getting high..and i cant stand any longer..really get this 4 weeks gone and done with..get the o level results..enjoy the pay and proceed with the everly normal life of going to school just like any student..and stop being soo cheeky and itchy to behave like adult..ive got to realise now.Im still early in the process of education and im nt supposed to think about jobs any sooner.
on a brighter note,im going to catch Singapore Vs Malaysia at the Stadium!

Muse In Fort Canning,SingaporeNeedless to say that i was extremely astonished when they came popping in without any warning from the curtains and blasted to Knights of Cydonia.Its unbelievable when finally I get to see my favourite band of
all time and having to dream everytime that they would at least one day come to singapore.
I was so excited that day that i was giggling all the way from woodlands station to dhoby ghaut like a loon. I was not disappointed a single bit at all..and i really think 95 dollars spend on the concert was 200% percent worth it.much value for money rather than going for prom..for me at least.heh. They completely blew me away like Katrina and my mouth went agape when they suddenly came popping out..coz they were like half an hour late and i didnt expect them to come out any sooner.and by the end of the concert..i completely lost 40pcnt of the voice and 70pcnt of the hearing(luckily) the sweat covered 95pcnt of the whole shirt(partly due to the shirt being long sleeve).i admit that i was a little bit
shiok sendiri at that time..but i know the best way to make all the value for money works is to enjoy urself to the fullest..ignoring what others might think..and i jsut realise one thing i have to always do in a concert..
To be safe,go with the flow,when they jump,you jump. and im glad it really works.
and all that almost make me crazy(like the handwaving profusely kind of way).
but i really dont mind what others think about me coz i really think they were fantastic! the confetti filled balloons was creative,outstanding light system that turns me to daze, and Matt Bellamy's powerful,stinging (admittedly im biased though) vocals.Dom's throbbing drumming and even Chris's brilliant basslines..
ok i know i must stop but the truth is out and they are the greatest live band ever.i dont care about your different taste but it still is to me.
Come back to Singapore!





Oh and thank you imran for being a supportive and great companion at the concert..oh and you too ain.
Happy Muslim New Year (1 Muharram 1428H)

Week 1: Picture Really Worksperhaps if the mood goes with the flow.this is gonna be a lengthy post. be prepared.
so basically its been 6 schools in 5 days and hell,i just realize that photo taking isnt as simple as i used to think or maybe u are thinking right now.
u need dozens of practise, and dozens of routined ritual of setting up,getting the backflash right,getting the scanning right.. and everything that involves the practise of having to practise.and 5 days seems like 50 days of work.
Tired? that is an understatement.
so the 80% percent of the 6 schools have been good to me..but im nt quite happy with the other 20 percent.
firstly Ai Tong school was good.the students are obedient..very quiet..not much of noise pollution.and they have a fantastic view of a buddhist monastery nearby.im impressed. i work at peace..only that they have so many students there..oh ya the pictures..this is Ai Tong School.its at bishan aniway.




overall: i'll rate it 3/5
and yah another interesting thing about having this photo taking job is that u got to know different kind of kids from different races..no not the usual ethnic ones..so far,ive met some greek twins from bedok green with their names having Nifakis at the end,a czech republican girl from CHIJ toa payoh with a Mucek at the beginning.a dutch from catholic high with a name of Van Cantlaar or sumting like that.its really interesting yeah..alright for the next day
it was ACS barker..
ok that school's extraordinarily big..and i thought i was in some kind of resort.it's the mirror of a dictator schools.its surrounded by many many walls..too big to explore..filled with filthy rich kids..but quite well behaved suprisingly..and im quite impressed..ohh yah they have a big big canteen. big bookstore wic was POPULAR..and haiya i just show the pics lar hor!


its more like a hotel receptionist than a general office.

Teachers who have been a great help by screaming their lungs out to the kids.good job

the church at acs

You got it right.thats popular.
ACS barker..ill give it 4/5..
oh ya i was needed to back up for bedok green at that time.but that schools ultra boring lar..and yah becoz of that school i bleed my finger..and it felt numb up till now. ive been massaging it for a loong time but nothing works..
ok bukit timah is another boring school..but quite well behaved kids.but one thing about tis school.i just tink the DM was a bit too harsh towards the EM3 kids..
well the boy was asking whats the photo taking for and the DM said.." for what you ask? for criminal record ah? u all 6H wat..6 hopeless!" i wasnt the only shocked one.ashraf was too. ok here it is..its damn ulu lar..we're just lucky 173 happen to stop at the bus stop..and we were the lone ranger there.no assistant nuting..you know like the song " just the two of us"..but kk noo..not gay.



kk next was catholic high..i have no pictures for that school.but really thats a school i wouldnt want to remember..ITS CHAOTIC..like rambutans!..only much worst!.
ermm yah the one and final school..the best of all currently..kk im not a pervert..but they are just so well behaved...really well behaved..and everything goes well and smooth. thats CHIJ toa payoh for you.


well the school was a little bit too comfortable..and we literally fell asleep when we sat on the sofa while waiting for the next classes..oh we made it like our own lodge..there's even a rocking chair.how great..and ideal place for work.i love it.make it 5/5,

and this was practically what we did while waiting,look at the sofa..that was the place to rest..and the place for work..was 2 seconds walk away.how great.and im not lying. he was really reading the papers out loud to the bear..expressing his thoughts about how hot Felicia Chin is..and the bear nods in agreement. look at his eyes.
and this i was really getting curious on what Wei Li have been reading..the book was entitled
Tuesdays With Morrie-
an old man, a young man and life's greatest lesson
the book was too hard to believe and make me reacted that way.So much for being 23 now Wei Li..oh ya he's my Assistant aniway..AKA helper? so yeah! thats all for the 5 days.

Final Rudimental Im really glad that i just went through the first day of training which was not bad at all.and i just realise that the job is kind of heavily populated with malays but luckily none of them are mats/minahs.but its good to make new friends really and we have a
saiful apek in part of our team and his friend was supposedly used to be in Riverside. There's nothing to be amaze about on right now.cause really,our country is only 647km2..no matter how densely populated the country is.It's still small aniway!
We were assigned a list of schools which we can request..and they give name of schools for the first day...
Admiralty Primary
Ai Tong Primary
Anderson Primary
Ahmad Ibrahim Primary
and some others which i dont bother to remember.
Initially we wanted to request for Admiralty Primary,but to think about it again, we still need to go back to our headquarters in AMK..and for a conservative choice, Anderson should be the wisest.and the only thing that burdens us would be the early wake and morning rush to a massive mix of smells in the MRT train.you can really smell beautiful fragrant on one side and marvellous long kept body odor which hopefully NOT lead me to a fatal suffocation right on the MRT train. now thats going to be the first challenge!and for 15 minutes i have to wait before a liberal relief.

AlfredLike it or not,politics are meant to be part of the life that we go through.
Ive always said,its a world your living in,its shameful if you know nothing.
imagine theres martians or plutoians living in the universe.they'll call u stupid earthlings!crap.politics aside!heh
aniwes, i have a really big obsession.and the obsession have been adopted only weeks back before the o's started. this is what i do, when i get tired of studying,i take out a diary and draw up my travel plans.and for every destination,i put it specifically where and when im going.Its a so called aim,only some sought of overboard.almost unachievable
well, and yeah all the places i wrote down are somewhat gives you a huh? and im expecting a thousand huh if write them down here. its not some fanatical places,not dreamland.never.mayb not you but it'll sure make me go awe. i dont look for winter necessarily.grasslands..hell yeah.historical sites..wonderful.ports..even better.
its something unique.its what i seek for outside.and never look back.and never miss home. something for an ideal honeymoon.and honestly,ive never dreamt of New York but maybe Montreal.ive never dreamt of London maybe Edinburgh.ive never dreamt of Paris maybe Amsterdam.or even ive never dreamt of Milan maybe Genoa.its not called low profile.But its all about how i could lie down comfortably.anywhere i want.
unwary of health
unwary of disasters
unwary of safety
unwary of noise
and i believe im having a massive PHD for quiet and peace. Hopefully,i could cancel out every single one of the plans in 20 years time.amin.

Sympathy For The Devil
Kurdish suspicionsGood luck selling the idea of cautious, responsible American counsel to Mahmud Othman, a Kurdish politician, who, in Tuesday’s Al Hayat accused the
U.S. of not only encouraging, but rather engineering a swift conclusion to Saddam's life story. Othman argued that the U.S. pushed to hasten the Iraqi leader's execution in an
effort to avoid more details of past American collaboration with the dictator being revealed in subsequent investigations. Othman, a powerful Kurdish member of the Iraqi National Assembly, told the pan-Arab daily that "hastening the execution of Saddam before ... investigating the source of the chemical weapons he used to suppress the Kurdish and Shiite uprising was an American plot ... [due to] the fear that their role would be revealed."
Timing criticizedEgypt's pro-government daily Al Ahram also noted those suspicions, though they took a backseat to criticism that Saddam's execution had
taken place on the opening day of the Eid holiday marking the feast of sacrifice.
In Tuesday’s edition of the paper, columnist Ahmad Bahjat summarized the Egyptian Foreign Ministry's position by writing that the execution had taken place
"without any regard for the feelings of Muslims or the sacredness of the day," which Bahjat noted is an occasion for forgiveness.
"You can say whatever you want about Saddam Hussein," the columnist wrote. "
You can say he was a tyrant ... and that no one was spared from his atrocities. ... Despite all that, his trial was a farce and his execution on the first day of the Eid a major mistake."
Biggest critique reserved for Iraqi governmentHowever, after referencing the gruesome and humiliating video of Saddam's execution that quickly found its way to the Web, Alhomayed saved his sharpest rebuke for the Iraqi government:
"Unfortunately, the democratic government of Iraq became equal to al-Qaida by showing the scenes of the one being executed. It ruined the conviction against Saddam Hussein and spoiled their democracy. It even managed to give the former president an ending that portrayed him as a strong and staunch man."
MSNBC TV's Seth Colter Walls worked at Beirut's Daily Star newspaper during 2004. Prior to joining MSNBC, he was editor of Mideastwire.com , a Web-based service that translates key Arabic- and Persian-language stories from print, radio and television media in the Middle East. I Wasn't Alone.

Saddam Hussein The execution of Saddam Hussein has been celebrated with all kinds of emotions lately..and sure im truly against the delight side and more to the distraught one.
True,he's responsible for the death of thousands of kurds,shiites and many more minority races across Iraq with experimentation of Genocide killing..dumping every single one of them in massive graves.And he,was the one who started Kuwait war..going war with the kuwaitians,and again kill thousands of them.Theres no denial,he was the iron nail,dictatorship,cruel,brutal and all kinds of characteristics u used to describe a predator.But if you still insist that Iraq suffered 100 percent under him and there was truly no room to breath than i suggest you can leave this page and type
www.cartoonnetwork.com..("i believe you'll know more about politics there")
Sorry but you should know that at this moment of your life,generalisations are bad and once and for all white or at least some black..but no gray in within. Im really not prepared if anyone starts knocking the door in a moment..but i make tis clear.im against terrorism but at the same time..im against the disrespect on a sovereignity of a nation.I am not racist for sure. Not that I hate whites..oh, its rather immature if i mentions "white sucks" and all and theres no reason for being stereotype as long as racial concerns.
Speak about humanity concerns,i bet if your human enough..you would let him see through the Eidiladha or even the New year.about the rush,that was truly inhumane and totally unacceptable..your treating a once high reputation/status leader like an animal.The trial was carried out nonchalantly and no room for any responds of what actually happens.No respect of his status and sure nobody likes to be treating that way if he is the leader.your treating a once beloved leader and televised himself with no respect of his supporters and leave them into tears.and really,your creating even more chaos and hostile among each other on the country once he ruled.
Your adding salt to the wound.There was no fight among the races when he was the man in charge.nothing even.i cant put harmony as the word.but i believe so..look at the iraq's state now.ur Men too are one by one falling,dying in the ground they never lived in..and they never wanted to be.You used them with a reason of "Keeping the security and peace of the country"..but no they cant argue..coz
"im the president of the ...." and i have the veto power of the world.
When their man falls,the one-in-charge look and said "damn i lost a man and i need to send more reinforcement"..but to those who are there..when they see their man down..they say "i can be next..God,when am i going to return"..We dont want to see the iraqi people suffers, but we dont want to see Soldiers going down also.Iraq war was never meant for the security of a country.It's meant to be taking over an economy and increasing wealth to an already rich country and also as far as jealousy may concern.
If a country were to attack them,they say it is an attack against mankind.a cruel act against other humankind.Heartless.and many more synonyms to it..but when you do the same thing to them.you said it was security reasons and also to preserve the peace of our country and make a better living for the people of Iraq.and there was never a better living for them.So many things happen in guantanamo.the world knows but they refuse to acknowledge it.so many things happen in abu ghraib.the world knows but they refuse to admit it. If the same thing can happen towards Lincoln Burrows in prison break by caroline reynolds.i believe the same thing can always happen in real life situation.Conspiracies are everywhere and they can give thousand of reason for different kinds of Modus Operandi.for everyone of them at least.
Inshaallah,hopefully 2007 would be a better year.and im really hoping so.
I wouldnt want to hear anymore series of chaos,i wouldnt want to be stuck on the sofa everytime watching the same stories all over again.no.let 2007 be a new chapter.
God,Please.
