Liverpool 0-1 Manchester United

[this is my 111th post!!! yay!!! LOL]

so anyways, again, at Anfield, in front of the Kop, United got the ball in the back of the net. The game was pretty even, but (as Sir Alex said it's typical of the derby) it was pretty much the battle of the midfield. It's like 80% of the match was played there. The best thing is, Anderson and Hargreaves controlled that field! They were amazing!! True, Liverpool might have more or better chances. Van der Sar made silly mistakes a couple of times and Anderson and Evra had to clear off the line.

A couple of minutes before half time, United got a corner, Giggs stepped up. The box was packed with both red shirts and black shirts. Then he spotted Rooney lurking outside of the box, unmarked. Giggs passed the ball, Rooney went for it and hit it first time. It was a decent, powerful kick, but it was running wide. Tevez stood there, had a simple touch of the ball and it flew to the top of the goal.

moment of the match: Rooney went chasing the ball, Reina had it outside of the box. Rooney went for it and the ref said he fouled him. He was walking down the right flank where Liverpool fans taunted him. Roo, being a true red, had a go at them, and kissed the badge on his shirt in front of thousands of Scousers....

Jimmy Kimmel

I don't think this is a new episode (I kinda think all late nights are on replays) but anyways, Jimmy mentioned Indonesia on one of his monologues... Here is what (I think) he said:

"All ITs in Indonesia are calling in sick today because the video game Halo 3 came out yesterday"

well at least we're seen as smart people, huh? ITs?? lol

AS Roma 1-1 Manchester United

A win would be amazing because that will make us the first English team to win all 6 group games in the UCL. But yeah, with the starting XI average age of 23, that is a GREAT result!!

United's starting line up : Kuszczak, Simpson, Pique, Evans, O'Shea, Eagles, Carrick, Fletcher, Nani, Rooney (captain), Saha

Pique with the header (Nani assist from the corner) on the 34th minute. 2 goals in 2 starts in the UCL for the young lad. (do I sound British enough?) lol

Can't wait for Sunday's match against Liverpool... gonna be huge!!! Then it will cut off my internet so I can study for my finals.

baby boom

Jessica Alba is preggers too!!! Damn... Is it like the trend now in Hollywood?? Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez... I was just shocked when I turned on E! News 5 minutes ago to find out that Alba is pregnant with boyfriend Cash.

blah...

another week without Internet in my room... Just got it back around an hour and a half ago... damn it's time to sleep and i haven't done my conclusion, or think about ideas for my essay tomorrow!!! hoping for the best...

[getting fat... hate it]

end of volume two

They killed Nathan!!! Shit!!! And Niki might be dead too!! They're soooo good at this aren't they??

heroes (nbc)

man! Watching full episodes from NBC.com is killing me!!! It's lagging every few seconds and it makes other windows err... I had to watch Heroes though, cos I missed it last week and tonight's gonna have a new episode. I don't know why but they're making all the characters look really, really stupid!

Manchester United had quite an easy game today. 2-0, both goals from Ronaldo. He should have got a hat trick. It was supposed to be a penalty (easy call!) but the ref decided that it was a dive instead... Reputation beats him this time. I just hope he gets his hattrick soon cos he deserves it.

And once again, I'm gonna have a 1 week ban from wired internet because of watching a game! Note to self: go the library!!! It's not even that far! I got a good time today and I still didn't go! It's just wind, I'll survive!! Next up is Derby County at 10 am this Saturday. Hope I can wake up and go to the library before time...

After today, no internet in my room until Tuesday

Sunday, December 2, 2007

my first snow!!

It's pretty much officially my first snow... lol

I didn't actually see it snow but everything was white when I woke up! =D Wasn't THAT thick but it was white.

It was sooo pretty!!! Loved it! Way better than rain..

Got a couple of pictures, will upload it to my facebook account =D

Hope it snows again soon

bored

Apparently everybody else have a life! They hang out, go to parties, have friends over.. My roommate left with her friend (maybe a date?) and I've been in the room the whole day! Why can't I socialize like they do? Why can't I get friends to hang out with?? This is so sad.. and yet they say college life would be the best..

No United game in the weekend doesn't make it any better. Plus I might not get internet connection for Monday. Maybe I should go to the library and use the wireless and use TVU cos then I won't have the whole week without internet.. should try..

essay

I hate writing essays! But I don't know why, for my 4th essay - the most important one - I can't concentrate on doing it. I'm gonna need to read the readings again, think about the question more, and WRITE!!! dammit...

Gotta eat now and start writing soon...

Monday, November 26, 2007

^.^

Well they just left... they were like 10 or 11 people here! =D

My roomie bought the cake. She actually walked down the road even though she didn't know the area!! lol Love her for that..

It was pretty fun...

THANKS GUYS!!!

well

Maybe some of them forgot but I don't really care. The people from back home called etc and it was fun... And I've got lots of comments on my Friendster, and a couple of wall posts on my Facebook. Gonna check it now. It's been pretty good, today. If only it weren't raining...

Sunday, November 25, 2007

i'm back

Hm... I can't believe I actually felt really sad seeing the Quads. I gotta stay here until December 18th now, fighting all the assignments and exams. I was having so much fun, didn't do anything. (I feel kinda bad not helping T. Philia with anything). Now I'm gonna need to write a paper for tomorrow..

Just got back from Lisa's room. We hang out, which is kinda cool... right?? Watched TV and stuff. I'm kinda hungry but it's almost midnight so I don't know if I should eat or not.

Saw something weird in the bathroom... Gonna try my best to forget about it...

Neways, birthday in pretty much half an hour. Everybody thinks it's an hour faster here than in Surabaya so they got it early. =P

BAD....WEEK...

So... England lost the do or die match. And United lost to a relegation candidate while Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester City all won. Ronaldo didn't even make the bench, he had a slight knock according to manutd.com (phew!) But damn... that wasn't Manchester United at all!!! Terrible performance! Bounce back soon! Cos I'm gonna need them winning to cheer me up.

B'day in 1 day and 30 minutes... =D hope that week will be way better! Got and NDS from the Raposas family. (LOL) Didn't really want it, but grateful that I got it.

No England in EURO 08

They needed a win to secure qualification, but lost in the last crucial match... Stupid McLaren for not starting Becks, sacked by the FA (not surprisingly). Ruined my day yesterday...

And what's worse, there will be only 5 Manchester United players in the whole tournament! I don't think I'll be watching. Just hope Ronnie gets whatever he wanted. (well maybe he'd want a win, dunno bout that).

Ate the turkey for lunch, it was great! Not the turkey, but the whole thing. I was so full then, it was around 1. But now I'm pretty hungry again. Will look for something to eat after this.

Finished my summary for the presentation. Hopefully it's good enough.

Having a bit of problem with my iPhone. Dunno... will see what happens later.

Monday, November 19, 2007

been a while

Obviously, I've been busy for some time now... Plus I exceeded the bandwidth limit because I watched Manchester United again last week. Just got my connection back today. It was hard without internet but I guess I needed it so I could concentrate more on the things I had to do. So... What's been going on so far?

Well Justin won 2 AMAs, and I still can't believe that he lost to Daughtry in Pop/Rock Album. Guess it was the American Idol/voting thing that got in the way. He won Best Soul/R&B Album and Pop/Rock Male Artist. So that's good enough...I think.

United has been doing pretty well, and I just can't wait for their next match!! It's so boring without it...

Dunno what happened to Big Shots but they have a 2 weeks break now, will be back on Nov 29th. Grey's Anatomy isn't as good as it was, and the ratings showed it. Went down to all time low last episode. They need to do something! It's getting pretty boring but I still love to see all of them in that show.

So, I'm gonna have to write my first rough draft for paper 4, due tomorrow at 4.30. Hope I can start writing tonight. I just don't feel like it! I need a break from writing papers!!! (hate the fact that I have to do this for 2 1/2 years...)

I had my Calc quiz today. My TA had a haircut and SERIOUSLY! I didn't know it was him!! (I walked in his office and he was sitting down facing the board so I couldn't see his face.) I had no idea it was him! I was kinda surprised when he turned around... I was gonna say something about his hair but I didn't.. So I couldn't do 1 problem, but after I left I kinda think he didn't do it right either... Dunno... Hopefully he eliminates the question. =D [oh, and I got 91 on my 2nd Calc exam. Pretty good I guess..]

I have to do my Chem presentation on my birthday! Dammit... So I kinda feel like I need to have the summary done by tomorrow so they know that I'm doing it... I kinda feel bad cos if I were them, I'd think that I have not participate enough for the team... Damn... (hope they don't hate me and put in bad reviews)

Wow, this is pretty long for a blog entry right? So I guess that's it for now. Hope I can do this regularly again..

Sunday, November 4, 2007

iPhone

Got this last Thursday, but then I couldn't do anything about it cos I still couldn't unlock it (well even now I still can't but at least it's.. dunno what's it called =P ) well now at least I can use it for something! I'm gonna do the rest tonight so I'm really excited. (GOTTA WRITE ESSAY TOO!!) I'm pretty much addicted to this thing now, kept on turning it on and off cos I just want to do something with it... I love it!!! Damn...

Saturday, October 27, 2007

aaaargh

I just realized that after today, I won't be able to use the internet for the whole week! Cos today's upload exceeded the 7day bandwidth limit!! What do I do?!?! Should I just download anything today (I have 6 hours left), wait till next week... but... dammit.... when it gets past midnight I know I won't be able to use the internet, but I don't know if it's only for tomorrow or for a week, though now the more I think about it the more convinced I am that it would be for the whole week... shit!

hm...

Besok g isa internet an soale (gara2 nonton MU tadi pagi) aku nglebihi bandwidth e. Tapi berhubung Rutgers ngitung e tiap midnight, jadi skr masih isa... Besok dewean, ga ada kerjaan, g ada internet seharian...

Rutgers football lagi maen lwn WVU, lg kalah 14-3. wew... but because United won I'm just too happy to care. But I'm just worried though, that was the 5th ticket I didn't use... (in 1 semester too!) and I might not be able to go to any game at all!

Dunno, right now I don't really care but who knows that I might get so into it someday??

United's record

With the 4-1 beating of Middlesbrough today, United has equaled a record of scoring 4 goals in 4 successive games, that was previously recorded in 1907! A 100 years old record... Not bad, huh? To actually break the record might be tough, cos next up is Arsenal, the leader for the moment. But it's United, and anything can happen!!! =D United can make it happen...

Nani's goal was just amazing!! What a hit!!!

Rooney's goal was given, but it was a good strike still

Tevez's double after half time was great. Both goals, the build up were amazing!! Rooney-Tevez partnership is doing United really good...

Heroes

heroes is so damn good!! Just finished watching the 4th episode on the web, and it was good!! Didn't see Peter though, that was the drawback =p

Anyways, Molly got sucked out or something... i don't know it was kinda weird... Hiro wasn't there either! Too many people in the series?

Sylar uses his real name again, Gabriel. He met Maja and Alejandro...

Will watch tonight's episode!!!

Wednesday, October 17, 2007

last night...

last night, can't believe what i was hearing....
[yes it's a line from jt's song but...]

it was 3.24 am and i just fell asleep!!! damn... the fire alarm went off and we had to go out. took me a moment to actually wake up. took a sweater, put on my flip flops and took my cell, went out.

i thought it was a drill and i was so annoyed!!!! damn... and there's this girl from our house who was so pissed too.. she was sick, and she was sleeping, and it's cold outside. can't really blame her for being so pissed...

turned out that it was an accident, from another house... at least now i'm not so mad at rutgers...

Saturday, October 13, 2007

Heroes

Peter almost killed someone!!! There was a lil bit of evil in him I guess, dunno from where but it's there...

Sylar can't use any of his powers. Even the one he just got. And he's trapped in this place out of nowhere, and he's by himself now he killed his caretaker...

Flying man (whatever his name is) was abducted by the company when he was younger. Bad news : it was Claire's dad! And he remembered the way he looked at him..

a little regret...

I kinda regret a little that I went straight to Rutgers, and not to college first. And I actually chose Rutgers over Koko's uni cos this one's better! I don't mind the classes or whatever, I just can't do the essays... not for the whole 3 years! It's supposed to be 1 year only... damn... this sucks... i got a C-, the worst possible score, in my first essay. And I'm not getting any better in my second one cos I spend most of my time on YouTube =P

Man Utd 4-0 Wigan

The line up as I remembered it..
Kuszczak
Pique - Vidic - Rio - Evra
Ronaldo - Scholes - O'Shea - Giggs
Tevez - Rooney

Subs : Heaton, Simpson, Nani, Eagles, Anderson

Things weren't looking very good even before the match started. Saha injured himself during warm up (supposed to be on the bench) so Eagles replaced him. Then early on in the game Vidic had a head-clash. He went back to play but later on he got out of pitch, saying he had a problem with vision. He wanted to get back in but the medical team said he shouldn't. Came in Anderson, with O'Shea taking the place of right back, pushing Pique to the middle. But it didn't stay like that for long. O'Shea got a dead leg, and was forced out of the game. Simpson replaced him. By that time I was so nervous, that 2 youngsters are in our defense, barely experienced.

The first half wasn't so good. They hang on pretty well, and we didn't really get through so much. The players (I saw Rooney) were pretty frustrated. He was mad since like the 30th minute! Ronaldo was. denied a penalty. The replay showed that he was pushed down.. As I remember it, there was another penalty appeal turned down. I don't remember how it was though..

I wasn't too happy bout the first half. I just hoped that it got better at the 2nd half. And they sure did! Tevez scored an amazing goal at the 54th minute. Turned around 2 defenders and got away from the goalie.

Ronaldo scored 2 after that. 59th and 76th minutes. The first one was Giggs' shot. Keeper blocked it but it fell right to Ronaldo with an empty goal in front of him. That was an easy one. 2nd goal was from Rooney's cross. Ronaldo seemed to leave the defenders behind so he netted it pretty simply.

Rooney's goal was pretty special. Scholes hit it right to overlapping Simpson. He crossed and it was a great cross. Ronaldo jumped but it was over him. Rooney was behind, unmarked, and head it home. Didn't score too many goals with his had, but that one shouldn't be that hard with that kind of cross..

congrats boys! Hope to see more goals in next match

so far

well.. haven't post here in a long time I guess...

went to T. Phillia's house this weekend, it was pretty good. At least I got some decent food!!

Manchester United won 4-0! =D first big win of the season.. That was a pretty good game. Worth waking up at 7am for.

Kimi Raikkonen won too! And Hamilton didn't finish the race, which makes it better. Haven't been watching F1 here, too bad. There's only 1 race left and I really hope Kimi wins it, with both Hamilton and Alonso out of the race!! You can do it!!

Rutgers football lost again though, bummed me a little cos they were so close to win it.

Essays... I've skipped so many EAD classes, and I know I can't skip anymore! But I just hate to write the essays! I really think I can't do this for the whole 3 years!! Damn... I really want to skip a class but with what I have now, it really is unlikely. I don't know if I can do this for the whole 3 years, that would suck really bad. Why does Rutgers take writing so hard?? Just let us pass, will ya?!

Oh, and I'm kinda addicted to David Beckham (and his family) right now cos they're just so sweet and funny! Esp. Victoria, she's so freaking funny! I just like it when they're together... and I've pretty much done youtube... Will look for the vids somewhere else now

Saturday, September 29, 2007

yeah, well...

Manchester United won!! =D Ronaldo's goal... Pretty good, the goal. The form wasn't good - at all.. But it was a win and I'll take that. Next match is against Roma - ANOTHER MUST WIN!!! [well for me every match is a must win...]
best part of it was that Chelsea drew - at home - plus Drogba got red!!

Rutgers lost though, the football game. First loss of the season... against Maryland!! We're 10th and they're nothing basically... But yeah it's a game, you'll lose some and you'll win most.. =) we'll get back on track..

Thursday = entertainment!!!

Started off with Ugly Betty (that I don't remember anymore =P)

Then it was Grey's Anatomy. George repeats his internship, with Meredith as his resident. Lexie (Mer's sis) is Cristina's. Well I can't say anything here, but it was just so good!! Though I gotta say I miss Addison here... (her show wasn't as good anyways)

It ended with Big Shots... Love Michael Vartan on weekly basis. =D Dylan McDermott is pretty cool too, especially with that character he's playing. (he's splitting up with his wife, announced at the very day his show is on!)

Err... dunno what else to say...

need... to do... homework!!!

Heroes - season 2

Started today!!! =D

So, a little bit of summary...

Claire and her family moved to CA (forgot the name of the city) and changed their last name to B-something.

There's this boy Alejandro with his sister, Maja, being chased by the police I think. They wanted to go to the US to find a 'cure' for her. Later in the story they went with these people, and long story short she killed them all! Except her bro of course, but he was in a different place at the time.

Hiro went to the past to find his hero, Kenzei something (Hiro stole his sword from the museum). Turned out the guy is not even Japanese! Kensei is not exactly his title, but just a name (which he gave himself) He's actually from England (the guy who played Sark played him =P) who went there and started working...

Nathan got drunk and didn't shave etc cos he's missing Peter.

Their mom got her pic with the S-kind of logo on it, as did Hiro's dad. They said that they're gonna die within 24 hours. (Hiro's dad did) They said something about Linderman, Charlie something, and Petrellis' dad who died, so now there's 9. And they think it's one of them... [have no idea what he's talking about!]

Molly is being protected by Parkman, live with him and Suresh. Suresh was approached by a guy who can turn things into gold etc. They (Suresh and Claire's 'dad') kinda have a trap for that guy... Dunno

Molly is having these nightmares, about eyes and the S logo thing, and that he sees her...

Peter was chained inside a container which was supposed to be full of iPods (there were some thieves looking for them) but he looked fine... for now...

dunno what else is there... can't wait till next week!!! [wednesday - private practice]

yeah

well, haven't been here for some time, and of course I've got lots to say! Well I spent the weekend doing pretty much nothing... Haven't been doing the right things here, hope I can make it right soon.

Oh, we played this game called assassination, and I got killed while getting on a bus! I didn't even know he was there suddenly he was right behind me tapping my back with his post-it!! Damn..

Did my laundry on Saturday, did something wrong, pretty embarrassing, but no one cared. My Manchester United jersey (the only thing I was worried about) had a little 'defect' after that. A little corner of the graphing was kinda off... Hope it doesn't get worse before I do something about it.

Speaking of United... We trashed Chelsea 2-0!!! yeah!! Tevez scored his first goal for the team, right before half time. Then Saha received, and converted, a penalty late in the game (oh and Mikel got sent off after 30 minutes only) Great match though! We pretty much controlled the whole game. I'm still a little bit disappointed though, that it wasn't Ronaldo who took the penalty...

Next post would be about Heroes... =D

PREMIER WEEK STARTS NOW!!!

Saturday, September 15, 2007

all alone T_T

It's the weekend! And Rutgers is playing Norfolk, I got the ticket... But I know nobody who's going. There were these people, whites, and they're not really friendly.. Don't think it would be fun if I go with them.

So I woke up at 7am this morning to watch Manchester United play. Luckily they won, even though it's another 1-0 win. (Vidic header, Nani corner). The even better news is that Liverpool and Chelsea both drew their matches! =D Now United and Chelsea has the same points from same matches played!

Wasn't the best performance by Manchester United and I expect much better. Next match is at Sporting Lisbon, first UCL match of the season. This will be a personal trip for both Ronaldo and Nani, hope they can do well against their old club. =D

Hea In went home so I was basically alone here. And most of the people on the floor went home too! Last night I was locked out of my room and I went knocking on the doors, nobody was there. I thought I was alone on the floor!! But I just found out today that Xiao is still here (asked me to dinner) and I was glad! I have nothing to do, not like at home I'd be going out with my friends on Saturdays like this.

I can't do my essay!! I didn't find it that hard to write an essay before, I don't know why I can't this time!! Damn... I'm not doing too well here, I just hope I can be better.

Wednesday, September 12, 2007

OMG!!

Damn! I just signed up for an internship!! It's 10-12 hours a week! 3 credits though. Not the best thing but I thought it would be a good experience. I signed!! What the hell??!?! For Campus Climate Challenge, something to do with global warming. Shit...

I just hope this turns out to be a good thing...

Maybe I should just forget about the interest group thing. Well I'd like my Wednesdays free. So no part time job then, at least until this ends.

JT Rocks!!!

JT won an Emmy for DIAB (best vocal and music I think...)

And he also won 4 VMAs (which I didn't watch cos I don't have a damn TV!!!) But I will, so I'll be watching him. And people said that this year's VMAs is a huge flop! With Britney as an opening act?! It's not that surprising is it? Justin made the whole show going. Him with his collaborations were the best!!!

What he won :
1. Quadruple Threat of the Year
2. Male Artist of the Year
3. Best Director
4. Best Choreography

I just can't believe SexyBack lost the Earth Shattering Collaboration to Beautiful Liar!! That's just so unfair!!

Oh, I skipped my first class today. I couldn't find my books... So I decided to skip a class. =P Not the best way but I'm gonna need to face them tomorrow anyways... Dunno what to do. This is just so bad...

Saturday, September 8, 2007

first weekend

This would be my first weekend here. Well not quite here cos I'm leaving to T. Phillia's house later today. But I was alone last night, Hae In left for home. I don't want to go out alone on weekends! If I go there to the dining hall, sit by myself. Well weekdays, I got a reason, we have different schedules and we can't eat together. But on weekends? I'm starving but I don't care... I'll just eat what I have here...

Friday, September 7, 2007

JT on HBO

I just watched the WHOLE show on internet (thanx for anyone who put it up) It was 2 and a half hour long and I enjoyed every second of it! He's simply amazing!! I really really wanna see him live. Front row! He'd be up there on the stage doing his thing and I'll be watching very closely. =D

<3 Justin Timberlake

first day!

Today is my first day of classes. And really, my heart was pounding since last night, afraid of boarding the wrong buses, going the wrong way, etc. Didn't have time to eat breakfast cos I woke up late. So after my first class (late about 10 minutes) I went straight to the dining hall and ate lunch. I was starving. I didn't know what to do and I got pretty nervous, I didn't know which way to go. I ended up taking a slice of pepperoni pizza and a glass of Cherry Coke, that's it! I was kinda full that time, so I was fine... I was confused when I got to the middle of the quads, which one is house 20??! I went to house 32, quad III, finally to house 20. I was just supposed to walk straight.

Went back to room and did stuff... Then I realized that I'd be late for my next class. Waiting for the bus sucked!! I arrived about 45 minutes after I went on the first bus. And I was like more than half an hour late! It was calculus so I was fine, they only talked about the things I've known (luckily!). And I walked the wrong way too! There was like 3 ways and I read the map wrong... The trip back home was even worse! I arrived to my room 1 hour and 15 minutes after my class ended!!! Sucks!! It was so freaking hot out there and I had to wait for the bus for like 20 minutes... Each!

My last class for today is on 6.40-8 pm. I haven't decided whether to eat before or after the class. I'm really hungry now, but I guess if I eat now I'd be worse tonight.

So now I'm gonna need to memorize my way around, at least until the student center. And then maybe I'm gonna try the buses tomorrow cos I have no class. (yay!)

Monday, September 3, 2007

it's here

first of all, i gotta say that i'm pissed i can't watch justin on hbo right now!! (well i think it's finished now but still...)

so tomorrow is first day of classes, and it would suck cos i don't even know which buses to take!!! (shit) and... dunno... i just don't like it! I never like these stuff, I know... (I don't even know what to bring)

Hope I'll be fine tomorrow... Well, I'll survive!

I was gonna say something else but I forgot!!

Manchester United won again! =D another close win but I'll take it...

I'm nervous, I'm scared, I'm... not feeling so good about it. But I have to do this, right? Shitty...

Wednesday, August 29, 2007

that's it...

I haven't posted here in a couple of days. Not exactly busy, though busier than before cos now I at least have something to do. But I wasn't in the mood. I had so many things to say that I don't know what to post here...

I've been in the orientation for 3 or 4 days now, but I didn't do anything much. I'm not the kind of person who can just blend it like that. Luckily yesterday at an event, there's this girl who approached me. She was from Indonesia. (we all knew each other but some are just too shy to start a conversation)

She introduced me to another girl from Surabaya. She's transfer student too, so no one's my age. But yeah, I'm going back to Tante Phillia's house today so I won't do anything much more... well yeah, I'm not making any sense but who cares??

Friday, August 24, 2007

I'm here - new life

Arrived at the States just last night, and I'm here in New Jersey right now. Will be visiting my school on the 27th for the orientation. Until now, I don't even know how it looks like. I'm scared, but excited too. This is a new start of life. A new chapter in my life. This is a new place - a whole new world - that I can start new things...

untitled 2

well... It's Sunday! But that's not why I'm happy. I'm so freaking happy because I can watch Man Utd play tonight. It's the derby at the City of Manchester Stadium. We've had 2 draws in our opening matches and that's not the best start. But I believe in the team. So yeah, we're gonna make it. We're gonna be Champions again! I just hope we get home on time so I can watch!

Oh, and the last time we got 2 draws at the start of a season was 1998-1999 and we ended up being the only English team who have ever achieved a Treble! Not so bad, huh??

anything & whatever

In Singapore there's canned drinks called Anything and Whatever. Anything is any carbonated drinks, such as Coke, Sprite, Fanta, etc. Whatever is non-carbonated drinks, fruit-flavored tea. So when you buy one you don't really know what to get. I think it's kinda funny. My bro and I bought them yesterday, he got Anything, which turned out to be Coke, and I got whatever, which was a peach tea.

I gotta say it's kinda creative.. in a way.. =P

Singapore

The 'transit' here is for a week - 6 days actually. Then I'd be going to the States (possibly alone). I get really nervous though. That's a place I don't know, without anyone there for me. Well I just hope I can have fun here, and that I'd be fun being there...

Plus point of being here - fast internet and BEING ABLE TO WATCH MANCHESTER UNITED!!!

Horrible start

Manchester United's title defense is on the rocks. Dropping 4 points from 2 matches. The first game, against Reading, we had 73% of possession, 25 attempts on goal, but none score... It wasn't as dominant, but pretty much the same happened to the second match, against Portsmouth. We didn't have trouble scoring goals last season. What happened this season??

Rooney out for 2 months due to a foot injury. Ronaldo was sent off during the Pompey game (head butt an enemy). So he's out for 3 matches. Damn, that's definitely not good!!

I'm just glad that I can watch the next match. It's the derby. Crucial match. Just hope we do good now...

Tuesday, August 14, 2007

RESTRICTED!!

You're just simply not allowed to show up at my house!!! WTH?!?! So you're going tomorrow... so what?! I don't care!! Just go already. AND STOP CALLING!!! I'M NOT PICKING UP ANYWAYS!!!

Monday, August 13, 2007

so annoying!

Yes, I've been trying to avoid you. It is THAT obvious! I thought you were my friend?! Went out just to say good bye, I am leaving soon. But why do you have to make it complicated?! Started saying things like "I like you.." and "I keep on thinking about you.." That sucks, okay?! And when you say you'd stop bothering me, STOP! 8 missed calls in the morning?! That's what you call stop bothering me?!

Man Utd 0-0 Reading

Can't watch the match so I don't really know much. All I know is that we attacked all match long but couldn't find the edge. Rooney was the most threatening player from our side, but subbed by Nani at half time due to a foot injury. O'Shea was plotted a striker after almost an hour, pairing with Ronaldo. We had so many chances but we sure did need a decent striker. It was just so frustrating. Dropped 2 points at the season opener, and facing Portsmouth away next. Hoping for the best...

Rooney is out for 2 months. But I do hope he can return quicker than that. We can't rely on Ole at his age. Saha - if he's fit - might be good enough. I'm just glad we signed Tevez, and I'm looking forward to seeing him against Portsmouth on Thursday...

F*** Astro!

The sh*t beli2 hak siar e EPL sakarepe dw. Klo emang kalah bagus sama yg laen y wes trima ae!! Skr ESPN/Star Sports g isa nyiarin EPL!!! Sh*t!!!!!!

Jadi sumpek pol!! It's the new season after winning the league, with these amazing new signings, the great pairing of Roo and Ron, and I can't watch?! I haven't watched Owen Hargreaves played yet!! What the hell?!?!

Thursday, August 9, 2007

WTH!!!

So I went out on a date. SO WHAT?!?! I mean... it is just A date. It's not like we're dating! I know I should have done something but I just let it. But still... I thought he was my friend?!?! Now he started saying things like 'I miss you' and others. (He said that 5 minutes after dropping me back at my house!)

Sh*t!!! I'm here for just a week, and I was planning to enjoy my last days here. But... WHAT THE HELL?!?!

Monday, August 6, 2007

back home

Well I've been in Jakarta for a couple of days now and I finally got home today. Man, I've missed my bed!!! Loved it there. Met some relatives, that I'm not gonna meet for some time after this. Didn't do as much shopping as I wanted but yeah, that wasn't exactly why I was there.

Manchester United won the Charity Shield!! 1-1 full time, 3-0 penalties, with van der Sar - Man of the Match - blocked all 3 Chelsea's penalties!
First trophy of the season, with a lot more to come! =D

Thursday, August 2, 2007

I'm going!!

Finally, my parents allow me to go to Jakarta. Mom asked yesterday, if I still wanna go. I said yes so Dad bought me the ticket. I'm going later today. It was all such a sudden that I'm not feeling like I'm going anywhere. Well it's just for a few days, will be back on Monday.

Kim would be at school for a few hours but hopefully she's there to pick me up later. She'd have to go to school tomorrow, so I don't know what I'll be doing. Ochip and Ivana are too far away from Kim's place. Dunno if I can meet them.

I might not be able to come online for a couple of days now. And I might actually miss the Community Shield on Sunday (T___T) but I'll be able to watch the replay...

I can't believe they're not showing the EPL next season!!! Hopefully the streaming thing works well...

Tuesday, July 31, 2007

too much

There are just too many things to do. I know I'm not doing it right, I wait for the deadline to actually do the thing. But seriously! My parents are making me confused!! I know I'm not supposed to blame them.. but... they were supposed to make this easier right???

Wednesday, July 25, 2007

huh

I don't find it comfortable, having to come online from my parents' room. I just hope my MacBook find its way to connect soon!

I got 2 shots yesterday. The first one was okay. The second one hurts so bad and it leaves a mark on my left arm. Where I got my temporary 'Anonymouz' tattoo before. Just hope it will be gone soon.

Watching Prison Break again (continued from before) but I wasn't that interested in it this time. Kinda boring, but I have nothing better to do. I'm back to the mood of being at home. Though I don't really have anything to do at home, I don't really want to go out either.

Though it's boring sometimes, I kinda like having nothing to do, especially since Manchester United is back on TV.

Can't stop thinking of Justin Timberlake, don't know why..

FC Shenzhen 0-6 Manchester United

The goal galore happened. I thought a huge goal difference is 'not allowed' in preseason tours - wouldn't be good for the fans. Their fans, that is. But it did happen. Man Utd the whole game, both halves, not like the previous matches where United could only play well in the first half.

Giggs opened up the scoring, great assist from Rooney, at the 11'. Then it was the other way around where Rooney got the pass from Giggs, and chipped it to the corner above the goalie. Awesome goal! Then our new signing scores!! Nani with a right footed strike to the bottom corner of the goal. 3-0 at half time.

Then we can see how Ronaldo has matured, cos he was in a good position to score except he has 2 players marking him, so he passed the ball to O'Shea who was unmarked at the edge of the box. 4-0. Ronaldo himself scored not long after. Great ball from Rooney and he just had to tap the ball perfectly to the empty net.

The best goal is yet to come. Eagles with a thunderous strike from afar. The curls of the ball made the goalie unable to move. What a goal!!!

Sunday, July 22, 2007

well

It's happening again, my MacBook not being able to connect to the internet. The connection is there, I just can't connect. 2 days in a row now, I'm using my home's computer.

Watching F1 right now. Kimi is out (mechanical failure, and Schumi was there again. Maybe he does bring unluckiness for Kimi?!)

Tomorrow, another ManUtd match. Great entertainment after a not really good week-end. When will Nani start to play?? Just can't wait for the new season to start.

FC Seoul vs Manchester United

This time I get to watch Man Utd from the beginning. First I was kinda confused with the line-up. Then I realized Fergie was playing the team this way:

van der Sar
Bardsley - Rio - Vida - Silvestre
Eagles - Carrick - O'Shea - Evra
Ronaldo - Rooney

The Roo-Ron pairing up front is the one I'm most interested in. And they sure worked well together. Created so many chances and practically they were the game. Ronaldo opened the scoring 6', provided for Eagles on 19', and then for Rooney on 21'. Ron was named MoM, playing for 45' only! [subbed for Giggs at half-time]

Fergie said he might play those 2 up front for some of next season's fixtures.

whiz kid!


There's this 9 year-old Aussie whiz kid who was invited to join Manchester United's Development Academy. His grandpa sent a DVD to United's talent search and the scouts were impressed. Even though Rhain Davis (the kid) and his family are Aussies, they hold British passport too. They decided to move to England so the kid could pursue his 'career'.

He's a cute boy. Only as old as my brother but he's with Manchester United already!

visa

Woke up early (at least for me) today. Around 6.30 a.m. to go to the United States consulate to get my visa. After the long, long holiday, it was soooo hard to wake up at that time. Maybe because I couldn't sleep before 2 a.m. but I used to be okay on school days.

Rutgers want my high school transcript on native language. Only sent them the English translation. Applying to a university sure is expensive.

NikeID

First found out about it from manutd.com then I checked it out. It was interesting. Well Nike is my favorite shoes brand, and being able to have an original, as I want it, is pretty cool. NikeID allows us to 'create' our own style. It's not just shoes, some accessories too. But I'm most interested in shoes. Choose the type you want and you can choose your own colors. And sometimes personalize it with some writings or logos. I think I'm gonna get one, someday...

again

I'm skipping tennis practice again today. Didn't go last time (Tuesday) either. But that one had a decent reason, I was dropping Ochip at the airport. But this time? The driver is not here and I'm just too lazy to find a way to get there. I wasn't that excited about it either. Not enjoying it as much as I thought. I'll just go again next week, hopefully full week. Haven't told mom yet, dunno what to say to her.

Indonesia vs Korea Republic

That's it... T__________T A draw would put Indonesia through to the knock out round, but the goal conceded on the 33th minute ruined that all. The dream of going through... They fought hard. I'm kinda proud, actually. Won 1, lost 2, very close too. Maybe next time. (^^,)

Indonesia vs Korea Republic

Damn! Just checked LiveScore and we're 1-0 down. We can't lose now! We've done enough to go through!!!

Come on Indonesia! GO GO!!

Indonesia vs Korea Republic

Indonesia is facing Korea Republic for their final group game in the AFC Asian Cup right now. It's still 0-0 according to LiveScore. Though at first I didn't really hope much, right now I'm hoping that Indonesia would be able to pull through and make it to the knock out round. As a host, it certainly come our way with the home support. Actually I didn't even know the match is right now, but my cousin was there. [Theo] was one of the kids who went out with the players. [dunno what that's called]

Good luck Indonesia!!

Tuesday, July 17, 2007

another one gone

Ochip left for Jakarta today. (that was why I was late for United's game) Went out with her from the morning then dropped her off at the airport at 5. I'm feeling kinda sad, being left by another friend. Before, Swiqz and Mami already left for Malaysia. And I'd be the one going next. I'm gonna miss them for sure! I'll only be able to meet them next summer. Dunno about after that cos I might not be going home. T___T

Urawa Reds vs Manchester United

after that long, long time waiting, the match is finally here! The first United match after a long time. But I'm disappointed to see that we were leading 2-1 and it was 54th minute already. Nani and Hargreaves, according to ManUtd.com, weren't fit so they're not playing.

Well it ended 2-2, not very convincing for Manchester United. Ronaldo scored with his trademark shot. From the left, making problems for the opposition's defenders, and blasted the ball to the back of the net.

Can't wait for their next match!!

Monday, July 16, 2007

blackle

Read about Blackle on today's news and I don't know why I was kinda moved. Decided to 'blackened' my blog and website, and making suggestions for the forum. I'm doing my bit for the environment right? I come online every single day so I just hope that helps. Though this particular window is pretty bright...

Asia tour

Manchester United's in Asia already. Tomorrow's their first match, in Japan, against Urawa Red Diamonds. Finally!!! I get to watch the boys play again. Though some players that I want to see are left behind, dunno why. But the fact that I can watch them again...

Saturday, July 14, 2007

my website

I was bored. And I just wanted to know how people make websites. So I tried to make one. It's definitely not the best type of websites, but I'll learn, and I'll do better next time.

my website link

heartbroken

That was simply heartbreaking! Damn it. All the hard work the whole match. It was like they were dying for it. Almost all of the squad couldn't even run anymore. The whole 90 minutes were played and the fought hard. 1-1 was enough, good enough. Will keep them at the top spot until the third game. But just 1 more minute to go in injury time. They couldn't concentrate because they were so tired. Most of them couldn't even jump to block the cross. That was just heartbreaking. I didn't have high hopes, but seeing them play like that of course I cheered for them. They made all of us proud. And they almost did, if that 1 minute wasn't there.

Beckham to L.A.

David Beckham is supposed to arrive in LA today, Friday the 13th. Both at London's Heathrow Airport, and at Los Angeles International Airport, there were thousands of people. Waving him goodbye at the first, welcoming him at the 2nd. Some reports also say that in Los Angeles International Airport they had to set up barricades so Becks and his family can go through. It was like a red carpet premiere.

report

I just hope I'll be able to watch him sometimes...

Him coming to the States is huge. Even ESPN there has his own ad!

Wednesday, July 11, 2007

huh

When Nani and Hargreaves were introduced to the media, Nani had the number 17 on his jersey. But Hargreaves' was left blank. What happened to the number 8 that's supposed to be his?

Newspaper said David Beckham is having regrets of leaving Real Madrid too early. Is this true?

Can't wait for the new season to begin. What I don't understand is, why is it Chelsea who tours the United States, not Manchester United. Then if I want to watch David Beckham play for L.A. Galaxy for the first time, I would be watching Chelsea as their opponent.

Tuesday, July 10, 2007

soon??

Most of the times, my mind often changes. My favorite things, my 'addictions', etc. They always change.

So how long will this one gonna last? I'm pretty sure this one has been longer than anything else. And it's worse than whatever I've had before.

Though I don't really want it to change, cos I kinda want stability. XP But if it doesn't change it'll get worse in time and I don't want it to be... to much for me to take. Getting kinda confusing right now.

Welcome to Old Trafford!!

New signings Owen Hargreaves and Nani were unveiled to the world's media at Carrington yesterday.

Full report is on www.manutd.com

Just want to say welcome to the best football club in the whole world EVER! =D Hoping for the best future for both of them, and also the club. The other signing, Anderson, is still in Copa America for his country, Brazil.

Sunday, July 8, 2007

today is sunday!

dunno what the title is about, I just don't know what to use as a title... Well today is Sunday but I didn't go to church. =P Don't know why, my mom didn't wake me up as usual. Maybe she didn't wake up.

Read the news this morning, about Wimbledon. Federer is playing Nadal, and it's already the final. When were the other matches? Didn't know anything about them, then suddenly it's the final?? And the woman's champions is Venus Williams if I'm not mistaken. The last time I read about it was the Semi-Final to be played.

And when did Roddick lose??? He's just... Suddenly out of the scene.

Saturday, July 7, 2007

wat d heck?!?!

the video download is not working!! Internet connection is fine, YouTube is doing well, but I can't download the videos!! T___T

Thursday, July 5, 2007

finally!!!

Lately my connection has been down and I had trouble signing in here... Finally get the chance to post again.

Err... What's been happening... Man Utd's players should be at Old Trafford today, doing pre-season training etc.

My addiction of JT is getting worse now. That I think about him EVERY SINGLE DAY. And regretting that I couldn't be in the States right now, watching his show. Don't care if I get the worst seat possible, if I still can watch him live on stage...

I haven't gone out lately, been at home most of the time. Dunno, I'm just not in the mood to go out, even if my friends ask me to...

Did United really sign Tevez??

Sunday, July 1, 2007

why do I have to give a title?

Armand and Theo went home last night. Flight was 6 pm and we got to the airport at 6 pm. =P They like ran in there cos the plane might've left...

I watched like a bunch of vids from YouTube, so I slept at 3 am last night. They're just too good... And I just love the videos of Justin on talk shows. Especially the funny ones...

Oh, and Rooney got the no 10 jersey (congratulations!). Well deserved, since he is a great player. Hope he does even better after getting that legendary number. And Hargreaves is at Old Trafford today, signing, etc. Heard he gets the Rooney's no. 8, while Nani gets 17, and Anderson is choosing between 12 or 19. The Hargreaves and Nani numbers, as I predicted. lol

Manchester United's new kit design was released not long ago. [have that as my desktop wallpaper] Looks kinda good, plain and just... simple. But dunno, other people seem to not like it. And the goalie get a blue kit, way better than last season's green! Hope I can buy one (though it is very expensive)

Thursday, June 28, 2007

untitled

The holiday continues, and it's still as boring as before. Well not exactly cos now I'm a little bit entertained after watching the replay of last season's Liverpool vs Manchester United match at Anfield. The first half was pretty even, but the 2nd half was dominated by Liverpool. We had some pretty good chances, the build-ups were quite convincing, but it couldn't get to the end of it.
The highlights of the match... Silvestre played replacing Evra. He was terrible! Lots of blunders, luckily didn't cost us anything much. Rooney was subbed off to be replaced by O'Shea because he had a cut on his right leg. He couldn't even walk after it happened, before being subbed. Then, Scholes was sent off, dunno why cos he definitely not punching Gerrard... Then, Crouch was left unmarked in front of the goal. But he hit it without enough power and accuracy that van der Sar could be a hero by punching the shot away. And it came to injury time. At the time Manchester United looked as dying to get only a draw. 1 man down, and the opponent played better. Giggs who is playing is 700th appearance for Manchester United was running down left with 2 or 3 Liverpool players around him. His right arm was obviously being held and pulled back so he wanted the free kick, and got it.
Ronaldo and Giggs were there, either could take the free kick as well as the other. Almost every United player lined up in front of the goal. It was Ronaldo who took the kick. It was decent, but the goalkeeper blocked it. Could have saved it, but only blocked it. Saha was right in front of the goalie that time, could've put the ball in if the goalie didn't put it away. But it fell to O'Shea, unmarked, right in front of the empty goal. Hit it with delight, and Manchester United won. 91st minute!

I just started reading Interview with the Vampire. Yeah, it's like the movie. And the whole time I was reading it I thought about Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt in the movie. Kinda creepy at times but remembering those guys definitely make the fear go away.

Armand and Theo are here from Jakarta (with their parents of course) - or maybe they're from Bali and stopping here before going back home...

Sunday, June 24, 2007

so

Em... Last night I watched Ocean's Eleven again. [as the director said everywhere the camera turns there's either a beautiful person on screen or something really important is happening] What a great movie it was. Loved watching it again. I'd watch the 12 tonight...

And I also got to watch Justin Timberlake's new video, LoveStoned, from his fansite. Great video. Like nothing I've ever seen before! Pure originality. He's just awesome!!!

I'm going to get some snack then I'm watching Ocean's Twelve... [hope it's not making me fat]

Friday, June 22, 2007

then...

Well I haven't posted in a few days, that's because I don't really have anything to post... Nothing's really happening at the moment. Boring days as usual. Haven't been in contact with my friends so I've been either at home or out with my mom. We've been shopping most of the times, and when we're at home we each watch our shows.

Moti was on a Bible Camp from the 20th, and got home today. So I don't go out with my friends during those days, accompanying my mother at home. [yeah, I am a good kid. =D]

Well I don't know, sometimes I just wish the days come fast so I'll be in the States soon, but some other times I'm just so scared about going there at all. Clearly I have nothing to do at home, so my MacBook is on almost 24/7, hope I don't break it down too soon... =P

Monday, June 18, 2007

LoveStoned

Justin released his latest video a few days (?) ago... And until now I still can't watch it!! But I'm getting closer and closer now, finding new fan-club of his, and also a forum...

TimberlakeFan
JT forum

^ I only post these here so I can open them again later... I've been thinking that when I'm in the States I'd have that really fast internet connection that'll help me with YouTube-ing Justin. =D

People say the LoveStoned video is really good, and hot too... I wanna watch it!!! Now!!!

what i've done

No, not LP's song. But it's pretty much what I've been doing lately. Well, I've been at the movies a lot these days.

Started with Ocean's Thirteen, then it was Fantastic 4 the next day, and then Shrek the Third. Watched them all in the space of three days and I had a whole lot of fun.

Fantastic 4 was pretty cool even though the story wasn't exactly the best. Well you know, it's good for children.

Shrek was funnier, and it might have been the better movie. Though the whole time I was watching I only thought about Justin Timberlake doing the voice of Artie, the king to be. I thought about how he'd look like while doing these things... etc. Dunno...

Thursday, June 14, 2007

Ocean's Thirteen

I finally get to watch it!! I just got home from the mall to watch the movie. Danny Ocean and the gang is back on action. As the previous movies, Danny and Rusty were the brain. They were the ones who take care of the people and associates. The trusted each other, took care of the things together. Well they were the leaders IMO. And the fact that they STILL don't trust Linus is pretty funny, especially that part with the girl...

I missed the first few minutes, I started watching when Danny and Rusty were going off the plane and Linus picked them up. Don't know what I missed there, even though it wasn't important I'd buy the DVD cos Brad was there... =P well even if I watched the whole movie I'd still buy the DVD. For the 11 and 12 too...

Loved the movie!!! Well Brad was there, looking good, classy style, and rich. That itself makes the movie wonderful to watch. I sat next to my mom and she told me that I smiled the whole movie... Why? Because Brad was there, and the movie was pretty funny sometimes. I liked the part where the boys cried watching Oprah. And that Terry Benedict was on Oprah's show, 'giving donation'.

So I've watched Pirates of the Caribbean, Ocean's Thirteen, and what else??

I'm looking forward to Fantastic Four : the Rise of the Silver Surfer, Harry Potter, and Shrek the Third...

just another entry

Yesterday I went out with my friends. We went to Pasar Atum to eat but I didn't, cos I've eaten at home. Then we went to Woof-Woof at PTC to karaoke. I like to sing, but to myself. So I wasn't really joining the others singing to the songs they chose. But as time goes on I started humming, and the words started coming out of my mouth. Well... You can't resist the good songs, right? After that we just bought some snacks, sat down at the food court, and played cards. Until like 9 p.m., then we decided to leave. The others were going to continue somewhere else but my father was already home waiting for me to take care of the things for college. So I asked them to drop me home.

I got home at around 10 p.m. and started working with my father right away. There wasn't really that much to do but it took some time anyway. Finished at midnight. Watched Freedom Writers till like 2.30 a.m. then I slept. Good film, though I wanted to see more McDreamy there...

Watched ManUtd vs Liverpool at Old Trafford today. It was last season's match. We won 2-0, I remember. I watched the 2nd half only and we were already 1-0 up. Scholes was the scorer, on his 500th appearance I believe. Then there was that amazing goal by Rio Ferdinand on the 66th minute. Even a striker would be proud of that goal, let alone a defender! United definitely outplayed Liverpool that night. Hearing the crowd cheer at Old Trafford makes me wish I was there. But, one question, where the heck was Ronaldo? [how come I can't remember him missing the Liverpool match?]

Heroes - Season 1

Done it! Just a few minutes ago I finished watching the first season of Heroes. Well... As I said before, great, great film. Kinda scares me a little, so I fast forwarded some parts of them. Just 2x though, so I would catch the subtitles and still understand what they're doing.

Sylar being able to do almost whatever he wants scares me. But he's pretty good looking. =P

And Peter too. He can do a whole bunch of things. Getting invisible, flying, telekinesis, etc. Awesome... [though there's something wrong with his lower lip...]

What will happen in season 2?!?! Can't wait... Season 1 was awesome so I shouldn't expect much for season 2 right? Movies that has sequels, the first ones were always better. Alias' first season was better, and so was The O.C., and... what else?? [well Grey's Anatomy's first season couldn't be the best, it was just getting to know the people there...]

Hm... Back to topic, Heroes. The ending was... just how endings are supposed to be, not really telling anything much. That's what makes you watch the next. So in this film, we see a person who can teleport through time and space, a person who can learn things really quickly, a man who can fly, a teenage girl who can regenerate her body very quickly, a mother/wife with super powers, a boy who can 'talk' to machines and make them do what he says, a girl who can locate other people, a guy who can hear other people's thoughts, a guy who can paint the future, a man who can go through stuff, a boy who can enter other people's dreams, a man who can heal, err... what else?? A woman who can make fire, a man who can melt all metal things, a woman who have super hearing, and oh! how could I forget?? The man with radioactive in his body, a woman who can make other people see what see wants, a woman who can persuade you to do anything she wants you to, and a Haitian man who can erase your memories. A whole lot more, I can't possibly say them all. And there's this special man, unfairly, who can absorb any power anyone has just by meeting that person. Lastly, I find that you can obtain other people's ability by eating their brains... muahahahha

my life

Tadi dibanguni mama pagi2. Ga pagi sih, dah jam 10 lebih gitu... Mau diajak nonton Pirates. Tapi maunya yang jam pertama, setengah 12. Padahal kita blom mandi2 dll. Pokoknya klo dipikir2 ga bakal sempat. Berhubung aku dah nonton sih, menurutku, telat2 dikit gapapa. Terserah mama deh pokoknya.

Ya tadi akhirnya pergi juga. Brangkat aja 5 menit sebelumnya, ya dah pasti telat. Trus sampe PTC, beli tiket, dll. Telat 20 menit an gitu lah. Pokoknya qta masuk waktu orang2nya dah di Singapore. Will nya hampir dibunuh itu...

Though I've watched it before I was still excited about it. I just loooove the Pirates trilogy. (really hope it continues) We talked about the movie after, when we had lunch. We came to a discussion of Pirates continuing with only Jack Sparrow. Well at least Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightly) wouldn't return. There's not much can be told about them now, is there? They'll meet for one day after 10 years and they have a boy. Dunno...

Oh, and I also bought Maroon 5's album, It Won't Be Soon Before Long. It's on my iTunes now, transferring the songs into my iPod.

Continued watching Heroes. This is getting pretty confusing. But Peter Petrelli is really cool! He can do all the powers, while the other can only have 1 power. (well except for Sylar) Though it's kinda unfair somehow. He can do everything now...

It's an awesome film and I really don't know what I'd do if I finish season 1 so soon... I'll be watching season 2 weekly in the United States maybe... Dunno... [will have to find a way to watch them all!!!]

Heroes

Don't know anything better to do so I started watching Heroes. Had the DVD with me a few days now but I wasn't really on the mood for some TV series. But as always, it sucked me in. Can't really stop watching. Though this is definitely not my favorite type of films, the serious ones, I prefer relaxing films. But still, it's a great film. It's kinda funny at times, but scares me too... Don't really find it as great as when I was watching Alias or Grey's Anatomy but this is really good.

Finished like 8 episodes already today I think. Told myself to stop so I don't finish it too soon. Then I'd have nothing to do anymore.

no great timing

So my friends and I planned to watch Ocean's Thirteen in the movies today. I was so damn excited, and I've been waiting to be able to watch that movie for a long, long time. Well it's Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Matt Damon, all in the same movie. And it's a fun movie too. Plus, the heroes steal things, from high security buildings. Well, my point is that I'm dying to watch that movie!

Why we cancel? The AIDS thing going on in the cinemas just spread again. A friend of my friend's sister got it. So we're just being more cautious. Dunno... It definitely didn't stop me for wanting to watch it though. I just hope that someone would accompany me.

My mom was going to ask me to watch Pirates of the Caribbean with her. I love that movie, and though I've watched it once but I'd watch it again... She was a bit worried about the thing too but not too much. Me neither so I guess we're going. She asked me because my father didn't want to go. Not his type of movies. But he's definitely going to watch Ocean's Thirteen so I just hope that they're going to ask me to go...

This suck! the time when I was supposed to be watching Rusty Ryan getting richer from stealing from a high tech casino. Well now I'm just here, alone, don't know anything better to do.

England 1-1 Brazil

Watched this when I was in Bali. Didn't sleep till 5 in the morning and woke up at 11. I usually sleep much longer. =P

Beckham is back in the England squad and it's been in the headlines for the past few weeks. And there's no way I'm going to miss that!! Especially when it's Brazil they're facing!

I didn't exactly expect a win. England with the new manager dying for a win opposite Brazil the so many times world champions, and 1st in the nations standings. I just wanted to see David Beckham play. He's been exceptional lately. And I know he's even more motivated being called back. [plus he is very good looking! =P]

It wasn't exactly the most entertaining match. The battle was in the midfield area except that there wasn't really any battle... It was pretty boring through out the game except those times when they put Beckham on close up. =D

Beckham's free kick that turned into the goal was just amazing. Actually he put more of those brilliant crosses it's just that no one was there to receive it. Just couldn't believe it ended up in a draw with just a little more than 1 minute away from winning!

Doesn't matter though cos there's another match tonight! =D Becks should play again!!! Can't wait to see him...

Bali

So we finally went. It was from May 30th until June 5th. I was going to post this yesterday but I was too tired unpacking and cleaning...

We stayed at Ochip's villa. Well it wasn't actually hers but her family member's. There were 5 people there already, and I went with other 4. I was with Rena, Jing2, Mami, and Manda. The first 4, excluding Ochip went home 2 days after we arrived so we didn't really spent much time together. Left us 6 people, and Gaby joined us the day after.

It was fun, I suppose. We didn't exactly do anything much. Just did the usual. IMO, we went out to eat. We tried different food, Balinese food mostly. And we did play water sports in Benoa. I played Parasailing, Rolling Donut, and Fly-Fish. That was the fun part maybe. Since we're not the type of people who wake up early and do things in the morning we didn't really have time to do a lot of things. We're more active when it's late in the day. We pretty much spend our time just sitting around, talking, eating, and playing cards.

I had 2 temporary tattoos. One on my left arm, An0nymouz writing. And the other around my right ankle.

Had a great fun spending so much time with my friends, but no matter what, home is the best place on earth. Loved it when I got back home. Felt more comfortable here... But I won't say no if I can go with my friends again somewhere... =)

Pirates of the Caribbean : At World's End

Finally, I get to watch the last of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy today. I've been waiting for this movie since I finished watching the 2nd movie. At World's End is telling about how they try to get Jack Sparrow back from the death.

And there's also the 9 pieces of 8 or something. Doesn't make sense, but nothing is. So there are these 9 lead captains if I can call it that. And there was Calypso, like a very powerful goddess maybe. She's the lover of Davy Jones.

The East India Company has Davy Jones' heart so The Flying Dutchman and the crew was on their side.

So the only way to kill Davy Jones was to stab his heart. And by doing this, the heart will have to be replaced by the one who stabbed it. Because the ship has to have a captain. The captain of course will be immortal. But he can only come ashore a day every 10 years.

It's a very good movie IMO. Hoping for a fourth comes someday. There's still possibility cos the producers and some of the casts still want to go on with this movie. It's a huge hit, why should it stop on 3???

Currently waiting to watch Shrek the Third, Ocean's Thirteen, and Fantastic Four.

24

I know today is a Saturday and I shouldn't be at home. But I didn't feel like going out. My parents asked me twice but I said no. Now they're going to Moti's graduation of his course...

I have no idea why I don't want to go out because clearly there's nothing to do actually at home. Especially when I'm left alone, I only have my MacBook with me...

I'm so damn bored so I started watching 24. [well I started a couple of weeks ago so I'm actually continuing to watch it] Started watching disc 3, and I was just trying to remember what I watched before. I couldn't remember much but I can go on with the story quite well. So this is a film that's so freaking slow! Like everything could happen in 10 minutes!!!

I fast forward most of it though, so it's like I finish the whole disc (4 episodes) in less than 2 hours. Don't want to fall asleep... But still I want to know how the story goes.

And do you know how many people are killed because of one incident in a day?! In Los Angeles!! Well what I've watched now is like 12 hours only and there are so many people killed, by gunshots most of the times. I know this is just a fake but I'm pretty scared of going to my dream place at the moment. And it's only half a day!

I just couldn't continue watching at the moment so I stopped to post this. Dunno maybe I'll just get out of my room for a while, staying in here all day long wouldn't be so good for my health right? =P

The New American Idol

She's 17!!! She's my age and look at what she has done. She's talented with a great voice and used it well....

Yes, Jordin Sparks is the winner of the 6th American Idol! [congratulations! ^^, ]

The result show was as usual amazing. Huge crowd, huge stars, and of course previous idols. The top 12 singing together, joined by previous Idols, Ruben, Kelly, Carrie, and Taylor.

But yeah, the result was kinda predicted before... Dunno, it just seems like she has the more fans. Blake wasn't bad, but 2nd place is definitely enough for him!

Can't wait for their next moves.

So the 6th season of American Idol has ended. Perhaps another birth of stars.

American Idol Finale

Today was the performance finale. Blake vs Jordin. I have the mixed feelings, excited and sad, at the same time. Excited about the show, and sad that it's ending. [it's actually playing again right now]

Each contestant got to perform 3 times. One song they have performed in the show, one choice of song they haven't perform, and the last was the winner of the songwriting competition.

Blake went first, singing "You Give Love A Bad Name". I know why he chose that song. When he performed it a few weeks ago, it was simply a blast! Greatest performance in the show's history IMO. Loved it!!! But this time, maybe because I've seen it before, wasn't as entertaining as it was. But still it was a good performance. The judges loved it I guess...

Jordin replied with Christina Aguilera's "Fighter". I thought she was taking too much risk, since Aguilera has this powerful voice. But she did it her own way and she has an amazing voice. She did a really good job there... Vocally, she was better than Blake, but Blake's performance was the more entertainment.

Round one goes to Blake IMO...

Second round started with Blake singing Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved". Maybe he picked that song because he did really well the previous week with the band's other song, "This Love". He did look comfortable on that genre. But I still think his performance the previous week was better. Vocally he was pretty good, but I even like his first performance better. Simon put it as the song he shouldn't choose for the final!

Jordin went with "Broken Wings". She was really good performing that song before, but it wasn't my favorite. Maybe she was good vocally but not much as the entertainment. Dunno...

Round two is a tie IMO...

The third song is the songwriting competition winner. It's a great song, but definitely not Blake's type! He went first and he was, on his standard, horrible! I think he wanted to jump up and down in the middle of the song but he just wasn't allowed to do that. It was more like a mellow kind of song.

Jordin took the stage. And it was simply brilliant!!! The song suited her well, way better than it did Blake. She was amazing, with that awesome voice!!! By this third and final performance of the night I think she swept it away. Vocally, Blake was no competition there.

Round three goes to Jordin, clearly!

Tomorrow's result show will be huge and I just can't wait to see who show up!!! Gonna be great!!!

todae

As usual I had nothing to do today. Except that I have a plan to cook with my mother. XP

We did the shopping for the ingredients yesterday. Though we didn't really understand the step-by-step things, we did it anyway...

Woke up around 10 today. Put in my contact lenses, washed my face, and brushed my teeth. Then I went downstairs to eat some bread and read the newspaper... After an hour or so I went back upstairs to take a shower. I went out of the bathroom and found my mom watching TV, while eating a hotdog!!! She said I can make one myself...

I was pretty hungry so I went downstairs right away. Cut the bread in the middle, put it in the oven, and waited. Well in short I made the hotdog and ate it right away.

When I finished I went back to my mom's room, and helped her a little, and went back downstairs to start the cooking. We prepared the things on the table. Boiled some water and put the pasta in...

I have no idea what I'm writing anymore so I'd jump to conclusion right away : I made Spaghetti something creamy lemon something. It tasted pretty good, but a little weird. When I read the name I thought it was gonna taste like lemon, but in fact it tasted like the smell of lemon! (does it make any sense?)

After that I left to pick up my father in the airport. He brought me this thing for my MacBook's keyboard so it won't get dirty. Dunno what it's called... [it's weird though using it for the first time...] And he also bought me the novel Eragon.. :D

Dulu waktu mendekati liburan, bener2 g sabar pingin cepet libur. Abis skolah waktu bulan2 trakir tuh g enak pol! Dah banyak tugas, ulangan2, EBTA Praktek palagi!!! UNAS sih gampang2 ae. (bukan gampang sih, tapi masih bisa dikerjakan tanpa menyusahkan) tapi abis gitu, dah krasa g skolah! Dah kepikiran mo libur. Padahal itu mau nya ujian skolah plus EBTA praktek sisae..

Pada masa2 itulah Daphne dan teman2 mulai membicarakan tentang Bali. Klo lagi pingin ngomong, smua diomongin. Dari tanggal brangkat n pulang, naik apa, tidur di mana, sampe mo ngapain aja di sana diomongin smua. Tapi yah, biasa gitu... smakin banyak yg diomongin, smakin sdikit kesimpulan yang bisa ditarik....

Rencana awal, tanggal 7-11 Juni. Ada yang mau naik pesawat, ada yang naik mobil. Tidur di hotel yang lagi dicari... Trus setelah beberapa waktu, ganti lagi... Diputuskan tidur di rumahe Ochip untuk memotong pengeluaran.

Sampe liburan masih blom ada keputusan trakir e. Tanggal diganti2, tgl 27 Mei, 2 Juni, 30 Juni, disebut smua... Akirnya keputusan trakir tanggal 31 Mei brangkat, tapi naik pesawat smua karena ternyata bisa dapet tiket murah ke Bali. Trus... Dapet tawaran villa slama seminggu. Sempat dipertimbangkan, tapi rasae sih rumah lebih gampang. Jadi... Blom ada keterangan lebih lanjut sih jadine mo gimana... Pokoknya ya gitu dulu lah!!! >_____<

Becks and Ruudtje

So I watched Real Madrid play last night. Waiting till 00.00 was really boring and I was pretty sleepy which of course didn't help. And I went down 5 minutes before the time, cos I don't know on which channel is the match. I surfed through the channels, all 60++ of them! And at the end, I couldn't find it. I thought that I had to change it to local TV but I was too lazy to find the cable. I was hungry so I decided to look for something to eat. And then I thought... Well I was waiting for this match since like more than 2 hours ago! Now I just forget about it? No way! And since this would be the last few matches (maybe) that I would see the 2 former Manchester United stars playing together, I searched for the cable. It wasn't hard to find, actually. But installing it and the channels were the harder things to do.

I tried to figure out which buttons to push on the remote control and it took some time cos the writings and symbols were erased already. Then when the TV is searching for the available channels I grabbed some food and drink. When I actually found the channel it was already in the 16th minute. And Real Madrid was 1-0 up. They were controlling the match, creating lots and lots of chances, but couldn't find the goal. Glad to see that David Beckham was an important role in the team. His long balls were great as I used to watch him. He was the main player in Real Madrid's attack, IMO.

First half ended 1-0 though they were dominating the whole match and should have gotten more goals.

The 2nd half, Recreativo (their opponent) stepped up and tried their best to break Real Madrid's defense. Only the first few minutes were they able to do that cos after that Real Madrid dominated the match again, like the first half. Robinho was fouled by the goalkeeper, that was a clear foul, in the penalty area. Real Madrid got the penalty and the goalkeeper was booked. Ruud van Nistelrooy stepped up to take the spot kick. His placement decision wasn't that hard IMO, cos the goalkeeper was a little bit to his right, where Ruud usually place his penalty kick. And by the goalkeeper's movement we can determine that he was going to dive to his right. Ruud chose the safe way, pushing it to the left of the goalkeeper. Ruud does it better to the other part of the goal but he's doing it safe... 2-0 up now Real Madrid. They were still attacking, but not as much as before. Maybe they feel secure now. (at some point of the match possession was 40% Recreativo and 60% Real Madrid!)

Only about 15 or 17 minutes before the match ended, Recreativo got a break. A player went down inside the box and the referee pointed to the spot. Casillas did so well trying to save the spot kick. He dived to the right direction, and actually got a touch of the ball. But it wasn't enough to keep it from his goal.

By that time I was more interested in the novel I was holding (Pride and Prejudice) so I stopped watching the match. Less than 10 minutes to go and they were still 2-1 up. It was 1.30 a.m. so I went back to my room and read for a while before going to sleep. Was really surprised to see on livescore that the match ended up with the scoreline of 3-2 to Real Madrid! The last 2 goals were in the last 5 minutes of the match, with Recreativo pulling level in the 86th minute, but Roberto Carlos put his team ahead again in the final minute of the match.

Real Madrid stayed 1st in the La Liga standings, only by head to head of Barcelona and 2 points ahead of Sevilla. A few more matches to go to complete their amazing come back of the season!

[first and last trophy for David Beckham =D, Ruud van Nistelrooy with 22 or 23 goals already to become the top scorer in his first year there. Even the players who got the ax from Manchester United are still good...]

FA Cup Final

Heart breaking, that's for sure! Well to be honest the first 90 minutes was pretty even. Both teams had their fair chances. But the fact that when it got to Extra Time, Manchester United was the team controlling the game, and couldn't find a break, Chelsea was the luckier team to actually find a goal. Totally unfair!!! Even just typing about this gives me pain. [dunno how but reading Pride & Prejudice actually helped me feel better]

And about Giggs' incident. So he was fouled, and made him drag the goalkeeper cross the line with the ball. So it was either a penalty, or the goal allowed. COS IT CROSSED THE FREAKING LINE!!! But the ref was mesmerized by Jose's handshake in the tunnel maybe... He waved Giggs away and look what it cost us! Sh*t!!!

It's the new Wembley!! It'd be in the history books!!! Will be remembered forever!!! With the season like what Manchester United had, it's so unfair that we got only one trophy, though it is very precious, the Premier League. And I believe the players are very glad to receive the winner's medal. But we should have gotten the FA Cup too!!! Unfair!!!

And the season comes to a close. The closing of this season hasn't been the best IMO, losing against West Ham before our title celebration, and the incident last night. [Hurts me even more that THAT GUY was the one who scored!!!]

Can't wait for next season... Hopefully another wonderful season like this one, but with even more trophies to celebrate with. =D

Sumpek!!!

Clearly I don't know what to do! So I'm gonna ask anyone. How do you stop someone from calling you?! So there's this guy. He was a classmate like 2 years ago. And we weren't exactly that close. Then he became friends with one of my best friends. The whole gang started hanging out and he was hitting on me. I was just being nice to a friend and I guess he understood that. He started to back off for a while.

Like a year or maybe more later, he's back. And now he doesn't stop!!! He calls like every half an hour, even after I told him I'm busy. I tried to avoid him. Not returning his messages, rarely answering his calls, etc. I also refused to go out with him. Dunno, he seems to not get it. I don't know what else to do and I can't be very frank to someone and... well I just don't know!!!

Nothing to do

well... haven't been here for some time. Just as I thought, I won't be able to do these things regularly. Like a diary I used to keep when I was in 5th grade or so, only there for 2 weeks. Luckily I have nothing to do at the moment and I remembered I have this, which nobody would actually read. =p

High school's over and I clearly have nothing to do. I thought the 3 months ++ break would be fun and all but now I know that it sucks! School wasn't so bad after all. Well I liked school, just that I didn't know not going to school would be this bad. It's just the first week of the long, long holiday and I'm bored.

[just found out something I could do with my MacBook I didn't know I could, how stupid!!!]

Err... I'm supposed to be going out with my mother and brother but she's still stuck on the chair in front of the TV and he's with a friend downstairs. Leaving me alone with my MacBook, so I have the time to learn more about this thing... This should be fun! >___________<

I hated the farewell camp from my school and I don't think the (buku kenangan) would be any good. I've been having fun in all 3 years of school and I might not have anything to remember it by, except my friends of course.

Valentine's Day

Hari ini emang Val Day, tapi bener2 krasa seperti hari skolah biasa. Nothing special except the chocolates and other presents I got. But there's no special occasion or something. Not even a thing with my friends. I had dinner with my fam, which we do every year, but that was pretty much it. Malah, plajaran Mat 4 jam!!! (Harusnya Kimia 2 jam tapi Bu Ar g ngajar, dibuat kerja latian Mat). Sampe bener2 capek abiz sama Mat, n bosen banget liat angka2 itu... Kerjanya pun berakhir gara2 dah g bisa mikir lagi.

Tapi, pulang pun masih les Mat lagee!!! Dari jam 5an gitu sampe jam 7 kurang, nglanjutin latian yang tadi. Untung kali ini disertai crita2 dari sang cece yang ngajar jadi g berat. At least I have something for Friday's try out. Pokoknya Daphne bener2 g mau dapet nilai jelek lagi!! Try out dari skolah slalu jelek.

ILPC

Hari ini Daphne ikut lomba ILPC di Ubaya. Gila banget! Masa lomba dari jam 7 pagi sampe jam 7 malem?!?! Padahal hari ini cuma semifinal loh!! Cuma 2 sesi lagi, sesi pertama logic, sesi kedua programming. Aku juga g ngerti napa bisa sampe selama ini... Rasanya g penting baget gitu!!!

Emang sih soal2nya lumayan menarik... [yang bagian logic sih] Yang programming, seperti biasa, Daphne g bisa. Dah gitu, yang lumayan bisa, salah nya kecil2... T.T menyedihkan banget...

Waktu pengumuman, deg2an juga sih... Soalnya masih ada harapan2 dikit bisa masuk final. Dari 27 kelompok diambil 10, n dibacainnya mulai atas (seperti biasa, yg lolos2 dah sering kliatan di lomba2 lain). N... mendekati akhir2, Daphne dah mulai kehilangan harapan gitu. Tapi yang g trimanya, peringkat 8-10 nilainya sama, 90. Dari full 200, aku berharap paling ngga dapet 100++ tadi itu, soalnya waktu logic dah lumayan yakin gitu... Masa skr 90 aja g nyampe?!?! Dibacain no 8... 9... 10... '..dengan nomer kelompok dua...' waktu itu Daphne lagi nali spatu, n rada2 g yakin tuh itu nomer klompokku... Ternyata, bener! Disebutin nama kita...

Diambil 10 kelompok, klompok Daphne peringkat 10. Jadi keinget waktu OSN dulu...

We did our best and we landed at 1-th spot... Hoping for a better day tomorrow...

G enaknya, harus bangun pagi lagi besok. Sabtu gitu!!! Disuruh bangun pagi?!?! Malezzz abizzz.. Dah gitu lombanya mpe sore lagi!!! Sabtu2 menghabiskan waktu seharian di Ubaya mikirin Pascal. >______<

Tapi berhubung hari ini juga capek banget abis lomba seharian, jadi sekarang dah mulai ngantuk n pingin banget tidur... Moga2 dengan tidur cepat hari ini, besok bisa bangun sesuai rencana... Ngga kaya tadi, telat banget. hehehe...

Dah deh, bis slesai buka2 forum mo bobox ajah....

first day

So today was my first day back to school, after missing it for 3 weeks. I know it'd be hard catching up, but I really didn't know it'd be THAT hard!! I had a whole bunch of papers that I should learn about. And I have tests and tasks and a whole lot more!! It was 3 weeks!! I'm not supposed to do all those works in 3 weeks!!!

Let's just forget about school for a while, cos it sucks big time. Screen Actors Guild award was today, and I watched the entire red carpet and the show.

Highlight of the show: the cast of Grey's Anatomy won best ensemble!!! =D

Though we didn't get enough of McDreamy today...

Manchester United vs Portsmouth

January 27th, 2007
FA Cup 4th round

The match ended up with Manchester United 2-1 Porstmouth. The score line was nothing like the match. United was dominating the whole match and Portsmouth was just lucky to get a break. All the goals were in the last 15 minutes of the game. Though United has 2 goals denied by the referee before...

Early in the game, Pompey captain dived. Accused Kusczak of tripping him though the keeper had his arm off the way. He totally dived and shouted for a penalty. Should've been booked! And he was lucky that Ronaldo wasn't there to show him how to really dive. XP Wasn't even a good dive!!

Then, United had a corner, Giggs took it. It was perfectly placed in front of Vidic who headed it really well. It was hard and controlled. James tried to block it but failed, the ball went in then Mendes cleared it. It was in!!! The referee said no, though. Vidic was already celebrating when he knew. Goal 1 denied by the referee. It was clearly in as more than half of Mendes' body was inside the goal.

2nd denied goal was from Larsson. Brilliant set up, and brilliant finish too. The pass was from Neville, and Larsson hit the ball well and it ended up at the back of the net. But the flag was raised, though he was clearly not offside when the pass was made. 2 goals denied by the referee...

Rooney came in as a sub, replacing baby faced assassin. Made an impact right away, on the 77th minute scored a goal with Giggs crossing from the left. Rooney was unmarked right in front of the goal and tapped the ball in easily.

Rooney's 2nd goal was the highlight of the match. Chipped the ball over James who couldn't do anything. Went in right at the corner. Perfectly placed and the keeper had nothing to do but watch. That was purely amazing!!

Pompey replied to Rooney's amazing goal by making one their own. Mendes strikes the ball hard and took a deflection off Kanu. 2-1 final score... ManUtd through to the next round.
