So far... I've been ok I guess....?
I learnt quite a few new languages to greet passengers in Polish, Russian, French, Dutch and Portugese. Many passengers are pleasantly happy when i speak to them in their native languages so that makes me happy too i guess.
I've some encounters with fellow TP AMS students at the Airport. Some people I see quite often like Ben Choo, Clive, Sarayutt and Bronson Ng. Some only saw once or twice but still good to see them such as Irsyad, Jason, Daren and Junyi....
Its good to help each other out when we see them too. Such as the case where i had two Portugese passengers who I could not understand through their heavy accent and then they had paper saying they should go where in Portugese which obviously I cant read. Bronson was there to save my day when he stepped in to help. Turns out they two were going to Transfer Counter C. So thanks Bronson! Also we met up after that to explore the Terminal 1 facilities such as the transit hotel blah blah.
Saw Irsyad yesterday.... could only had a short 5 mins chat with him but he need to go off after that.... sighs.
Life also cant be complete without football, of course.
Very much saddened to hear that Sir Alex Ferguson of Manchester United is going to retire yesterday....
Watched Chelsea FC vs Tottenham Hotspur yesterday where former Chelsea manager Andre Villas Boas goes back to Stamford Bridge. Ended with a 2-2 draw with goals from Oscar after a corner when he turned in a header after another header from Gary Cahill. Spurs equalised through an Emmanuel Adebaayor wonder strike.... before Chelsea took the lead again through Ramires after a fantastic through pass from Fernando Torres. +Spurs then hit back late in hte 80th minute through Gylfi Sigurdsson to make it 2-2.
Also watched the last 30 mins of Real Madrid vs Malaga which ended 6-2. Was 5-2 already when I tuned in. 2 red cards have been shown already to Malaga's Martibn Demichelis and Sergio Sanchez and on form goalkeeper Willy Caballero was taken off in the 42nd minute injured so Malaga was never going to win anyways even though Cristiano missed. Still managed to catch a wonderful goal from Angel Di Maria though in the 90th minute to make it 6-2. The other scorers in the match were Albiol, Cristiano, Ozil, Benzema and Modric for Real and Santa Cruz and Antunes for Malaga.
Ok... going to work later. 2nd last day on ground before heading off to management office next week.... wish me luck and i hope i get a KLM flight!

BORUSSIA DORTMUND TO THE FINAL
Okay been a while since I've posted!
I'm a happy man today... although I have to work on Labour Day...
Because....
BORUSSIA DORTMUND IS IN THE FINAL OF THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD COME
It was a nervy 2nd leg match though, with Real Madrid winning 2-0, through Benzema and Sergio Ramos goals in the 82nd minute and 88th minute, to make the final 13 minutes inclusive of the 5 minute injury time very tense for me!! in the first 20 mins, Real knocked on our door and we were not settled. Thankfully, we re-organised to hold them while making some attacks on our own. However, our finishing did let us down, also with some great saves from Diego Lopez.
Still, we won the tie 4-3 on aggregate, thanks to our 4-1 aggregate victory a week ago. Robert Lewandowski made headlines with his 4 goal blitz on Madrid ( 8', 50', 55', 67' (pen)). While Cristiano equalised in the 43 minute, our team really turned on in the 2nd half and outclassed our opponents completely.
Anyway, Bayern lead 4-0 against Barcelona in the other tie. They are playing at the Camp Nou tonight, and Bayern would be the more likely opponent in the final. And lo, we are going to play Bayern this weekend already!
This Borussia Dortmund Champions League campaign has been incredible. Though today the defeat against Madrid meant that we lose our unbeaten record in this season's Champions League, its still brings pleasant memories, especially this match:
Borussia Dortmund 3-2 Malaga CF (Lewandowski 40' Reus 90+1', Felipe Santana 90+3' ; Joaquin 25', Eliseu 82')
I experienced all the emotions a football fan goes through in just a game. Joy, sadness, excitement, anger. Woah....
Anyways..... internship have been okay so far... hate the day day night night break break shift schedule. It sucks though. Now i really miss the days at Police Academy, with Mr Teo Chun Ping and Mr Sarjit, Mr Kumar and Mr Panier. And i do miss some of my classmates at the Academy already..... and not to mention my classmates from school....
I still meet some of my classmates from time to time at the Airport and also when i went back to crash the AMS Camp 2013.
Okay... off to work at Terminal 1, Changi Airport later, fresh from the joy of my team reaching the UEFA Champions League Final!

1st week of internship
So yeap, have been going to the Old Police Academy at Thomson Road for Cisco courses for this week for the start of my internship....
Mr Sarjit Singh was a good trainer, quite strict... but still good.... and Mr Teo Chun Ping... my fellow interns at TP says he talk a lot... super boring.... but.... he actually quite nice leh... i feel....
anyway, stupid internship comes with a stupid logbook. must write weekly summary of tasks and reflection and get supervisor to sign.... what the hell lah sighs.
Too bad i didnt manage to catch the Champions League matches between Paris St Germain vs Barcelona, which ended 2-2, Messi scoring first, then followed by an equaliser by Ibrahimovic, Xavi restored Barca's lead through a penalty before Blaise Matuidi equalised in the dying seconds. Bayern also beat Juventus 2-0 through David Alaba long range strike in 35 seconds and Thomas Muller at 63 mins. Buffon was at fault for both goals, which later Bayern legend Franz Beckenbauer criticised Buffon for looking like a pensioner in the match. Harsh. Anyway, Toni Kroos was injured in the 16th minute, he was doing a good job against Andrea Pirlo, who was anonymous in the match. For PSG vs Barca, David Beckham covered 6km during the match, more than any other player, and hes 37 years old! Respect!
Next day, did catch Champions League Action. It was Malaga vs Borussia Dortmund. Marco Reus, Mario Gotze, Robert Lewandowski all disappointed for us, as the match ended 0-0. Their goalkeeper Willy Caballero made several good saves from us though. In the other match, Real Madrid beat Galatasary 3-0, where Jose squared off against his former players Drogba and Sneijder and Hamit Altintop, through Cristiano 9', Benzema 29' and Higuain 73'.
Well, had a test this week. and i got 96/100... lol... so close to full marks.....
And now, need to practise some scripts for the Oral assessment....
And also... today Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund faced Augsburg. We named a much changed side to rest players for the return leg against Malaga. This was our lineup: Mitchell Langerak, Marcel Schemlzer, Neven Subotic, Felipe Santana, Kiven Grosskreutz (yes, Grosskreutz playing rightback today), Nuri Sahin, Sven Bender, Leonardo Bittencourt, Mortiz Leitner, Jonas Hoffmann, Julian Schieber.
We took the lead through Julian Schieber in the 22' minute. But some defensive mistakes by BVB let Augsburg score 2 goals in 30 seconds to take a 2-1 lead just before the half time, and we booed the team off the pitch. in the 2nd half, Jurgen Klopp sent on Robert Lewandowski and Mario Gotze for Moritz Leitner and Leonardo Bittencourt. This works out pretty well as less than 1 minute later, an assist by Lewandowski saw Julian Schieber getting his brace and equaliser in the 52th minute. We took the lead through neven Subotic in the 64th minute, and with just 19 seconds to go before the match ended, Robert Lewandowski scored to continue his record for scoring in 10 consecutive Bundesliga games.
And no surprises, Bayern wrapped up the title with a 1-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt through Bastian Schweinsteiger backheel in the 52th minute. David Alaba missed a penalty early in the game. Whatever it is,. I congratulate Bayern, they were too strong for us this season. And now, its time for German teams to refocus on our Champions League return legs!!!
Anyways, also saw pictures on troll football of Mirko Vucinic celebrating one of his 2 goals (dunno which) against Pescara by taking his shorts off. haha, smart guy, since referees cant give a yellow card for that, only can give to ppl taking off shirts (stupid rule anyway). well, i bet FIFA gonna take action and write a new rule?
Ok whatever it is.. gotta sleep soon... gotta play football tomorrow.

Beyond 20 years old....
Alright... lots of things have happened over this past week where I have not returned for blogging....
Starting from 21 March 2013, my 20th birthday.
I only went to sleep like 2am in the morning, but couldnt get any sleep. I woke up at 8am.... and played a bit on my computer... before going out to Mountbatten Road opposite SOTA to meet with a long lost tuition friend Mr Teo Yi Teng. He picked me up there in his BMW (WOAH!) and we went to Central, where he brought me to Santouka Ramen for lunch where I mentioned to him the day before I was craving ramen. He treated me to the meal and after that had a long chat at Clarke Quay to catch up since the last time I saw him was 3 years ago, to watch Avatar! Really thanks, Yi Teng, I will forever remember and appreciate this!! Dont run away... because it will be my turn to celebrate your 21st birthday on 21 January! Hey you are exactly 2 months older than me! hahaha.
And then, Yi Teng had to go to the West to pick up his girlfriend... so I went to Katong I12, where my classmate Sarayutt Koh also treated me to coffee at this cafe called Baci. I asked him for stronger coffee since I was really tired, and he did so. He also gave me some key chains as presents. Thanks for the thought Sara!
After that, went home for a while, before going to Simpang for dinner with Wen Pin, Jin Yong, Ibrahimovic, Darwin and Erwin, whom's birthday we were also celebrating. The dinner was horrible though I did not mention to any of my friends that I disliked the food. There, they gave me a present, which was a jacket and a pair of track pants. Thanks guys. After that, ibrahimovic had to leave bcos he was packing up for some cruise trip to dont know where. So the rest of us went to Vie Bar to have some beer, where we were joined by the little boy aka Javier Goh. So thanks too, little boy, for actually bothering to come down after your whatever late meeting at school. haha.
So after that 3 outings in 1 day, the most I ever had, and the first ever time to go out on my birthday, I went home to watch Khazakstan vs Germany for World Cup Qualifiers. Germany took control of the game quickly, with 2 goals in 2 minutes. The first of them came in the 20 minute, from Bastian Schweinsteiger (although others might say it was Thomas Muller who deflected the ball in) and our very own Borussia's Gotze who doubled our advantage in the 22 minute. After that, it was quite a boring game and even saw Khazakstan threatening until the 74th minute where Thomas Muller popped up to seal the 3 points for Germany.
Nothing significant for the next few days though, me playing Football Manager 2011 at home, going work on Saturdays.... and then the return leg for Germany vs Khazakstan, at the Stadion Nuremberg.
I was extremely delighted with Marco Reus, Mario Gotze and Ilkay Gundogan, our very own BVB players, who weighed in goals in the 23 minute, 27th minute and the 32nd minute respectively as Germany controlled the game for the first half, with it ending 3-0 to us. However, Khazakstan seemed rejuvenated for the second half, and the stupid Manuel Neuer decided to dribble the ball past 2 defenders after also a rather poor backpass from Per Mertesacker resulted in Schmidtgal, who plays for Greuther Furth, to make it 3-1. Throughout the game, Germany kept hitting the woodwork, like maybe 800 times in the match, with the Khazakstan goalkeeper A. Sidlenikov displaying great heroics for Khazakstan by keeping Germany to the 3 goals.... until Marco Reus popped up with a 90th minute goal to make it 4-1.
That sums up the international break for us.
And then the next morning, went to school at 12pm for a briefing regarding our internship, where we had a face to face meeting with our supervisor Mr Priveen. I was very disappointed, though, during the meeting, where we only then found out we had to go for this up your service course, when no one ever mentioned to us before we had to go! Now, more on that next time.
Nothing else for the next day, which was Thursday. Then it was Good Friday. While the Christians mourn the death of Jesus Christ, we non-Christians played football at St Wilfred Sports Complex with my fellow Marists. I was contented with my performance that day.
Then Saturday comes, where Borussia Dortmund played VFB Stuttgart at the Mercedes Benz Arena. Hope Marcel Schmelzer can recover soon, after a high boot by Martin Harnik took out his nose, where he had to be taken off and he was replaced by Lukasz Piszczek, where he was originally rested. A free kick by Marco Reus soon after in the 23rd minute saw Piszczek though coming in to head the ball home. 1-0! Stuttgart tried to kick our players off the pitch throughout till the end of the first half. At the 2nd half, they came back battling and found a goal back through Alexandru Maxim in the 63th minute. However, a red card to GeorgNiedermeier in the 69th minute gave us a chance to win the game, where Robert Lewandowski fired in his 20th goal of the season in the 82nd minute, thus extending his club record too of scoring in consecutive Bundesliga games, and we delayed the Bayern title party by a week.
Woke up today though, to get ready for our company auction, and later I found out from my cousin that Bayern had thrashed Hamburg SV 9-2.... Claudio Pizarro scored 4 goals, with Robben having 2 and Shaqiri, Schweinsteiger and Ribery being the other scorers. Jeffrey Bruma and Heiko Westermann scoring for Hamburg....
So after auction, went home to rest for a while, before meeting up with Wen Pin for a catch up at I12 Katong.
And now, internship will start soon, for me, tomorrow. And I havent found out how to get to my reporting place tomorrow yet... die....

Yes, so have to go to the Airport around 3pm, reached there about 2.45pm...... went into the office, where i was welcomed by Mr Vincent, who will be our supervisor for our internship for the next 6 months.... and also Mr Abbas will be our lecturer supervisor also....
Mr Vincent seemed quite nice, on first impression, so good so far. And Ms Mandy also.... Mr Vincent conducted a briefing for our internship and then Ms Mandy checked our Airport pass application form and our application form for the internship..... We all have some homework to do... pay some administrative cash and so on.... which i dont feel like doing now....
Ok... so internship will start exactly April Fools Day where we will have to start a course at the Police Academy... seems very far from my house.... and have to get there at 830am...... woah.... that sounds like my waking up time for secondary school..... yays....
Well.... i guess this sums up my first post as an adult...

A Great weekend... hope for a great week ahead...
Lol... I know when I am writing this, its already in the wee hours of Tuesday Morning.....
But then..... i really do hope for a great week ahead.... as its my birthday week.... as this day inches closer.... only 2 days away.....
I really hope I can have a lot of birthday presents, just like other people normally do... but then.... nobody really cares about my birthday, do they? Last year had my first celebration for my birthday though.... although i didnt really like the present my friends shared for me, but still, i appreciated that and just went on to complete the present, which is to fix up a Messerschmitt Bf-109 F model kit....
I really hope I do not get model kits this time, as I really have a lot more model kits at home waiting for me to start work... so another 1 from my friends would really hinder what I want to do....
Anyway, whatever it is.... it was a great weekend of football because almost all the results were mostly what I wanted.... except Barcelona winning Rayo Vallecano of course..... and Bayern Munchen winning Bayer Neverkusen 2-1 at the BayArena....
But then, first up on Saturday, Man Shitty lost to Everton 2-0 at Goodison Park. Man Shitty lined up in an unfamiliar 3-4-3 formation..... and when Everton took the lead through Leon Osman, and my, its a wonderful goal!!! Then Steven Pienaar our former Borussia Dortmund player got red carded. (What? Seriously? Stupid Javi Garcia was play-acting!!). Whatever it is, Man Shitty pressed forward, didnt get anything, cresit to Jan Mucha the Everton goalkeeper for keeping the score at 1-0. And in the dying minutes of the game.... a counter attack was pearheaded by Marouanne Fellaini, who squared the ball to Nikica Jelavic to finish off the game at 2-0! AWESOME!!!
If that was not good enough, Borussia Dortmund later romped to aa 5-1 victory over Freiburg at the Wesfalenstadion!!! We did not get off to a good start though, where Jonathan Schmid drew first blood for Freiburg in the 28th minute to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. However, Borussia Dortmund controlled the game after that, and 4 minutes before, the break, we had 3 goals in that 4 minutes, first from Lewandowski at 41', then Nuri Sahin at 44', and Lewandowski again at 45' to send BVB 3-1 up at the break! After the break, we continued our assault by Lewandowski and Gotze and Reus did waste some good chances, before Nuri Sahin sends a great left volley to get his brace and send BVB 4-1 up! Leonardo Bittencourt who came on as a substitute in the 77th minute rounded off the win when he scored just 1 minute after he came on!
And after the BVB game finished, I was absolutely pleasant to see that Loserpool were down to Southampton 2-1!!!!! Morgan Schneiderlin and Rickie Lambert scoring in the 6 and 33 minute of the game. Philippe Countinho scored just before the break to make it 2-1. Loserpool werent playing well, oh well they are losers anyways.... and that frustration also translate into their performance especially when stupid racist and cheat Luis Suarez tries to block Artur Boruc from taking a kick, and promptly got yellow carded. Jay Rodriguez rounded off the score at 3-1 in the 80th minute, CONGRATZ SOUTHAMPTON!!!!!
Other results going my way also included Real Madrid coming back to win 5-2 against Mallorca when they recovered twice from being a goal down, where Luka Modric scores a sspectacular long range effort. And also Manchester United opening up a 15 point gap between the 2 Manchester clubs in the title race with a 1-0 win against Reading through Rooney's 21st minute goal.
Yeap, great weekend of football results anyway! Hahaha, great birthday present from BVB yeah! Hope Germany can do well against Khazakstan in the World Cup qualifiers this week too!
So, on Sunday, played football with friends again. And was more happy with my performance this time round compared to last week disastrous performance.
Nothing much really happened for this week so far, just playing my steam games and also preparing some important documents which I need to bring along for my Certis Cisco briefing scheduled on Wednesday. Hope it goes well...!
But then..... i really do hope for a great week ahead.... as its my birthday week.... as this day inches closer.... only 2 days away.....
I really hope I can have a lot of birthday presents, just like other people normally do... but then.... nobody really cares about my birthday, do they? Last year had my first celebration for my birthday though.... although i didnt really like the present my friends shared for me, but still, i appreciated that and just went on to complete the present, which is to fix up a Messerschmitt Bf-109 F model kit....
I really hope I do not get model kits this time, as I really have a lot more model kits at home waiting for me to start work... so another 1 from my friends would really hinder what I want to do....
Anyway, whatever it is.... it was a great weekend of football because almost all the results were mostly what I wanted.... except Barcelona winning Rayo Vallecano of course..... and Bayern Munchen winning Bayer Neverkusen 2-1 at the BayArena....
But then, first up on Saturday, Man Shitty lost to Everton 2-0 at Goodison Park. Man Shitty lined up in an unfamiliar 3-4-3 formation..... and when Everton took the lead through Leon Osman, and my, its a wonderful goal!!! Then Steven Pienaar our former Borussia Dortmund player got red carded. (What? Seriously? Stupid Javi Garcia was play-acting!!). Whatever it is, Man Shitty pressed forward, didnt get anything, cresit to Jan Mucha the Everton goalkeeper for keeping the score at 1-0. And in the dying minutes of the game.... a counter attack was pearheaded by Marouanne Fellaini, who squared the ball to Nikica Jelavic to finish off the game at 2-0! AWESOME!!!
If that was not good enough, Borussia Dortmund later romped to aa 5-1 victory over Freiburg at the Wesfalenstadion!!! We did not get off to a good start though, where Jonathan Schmid drew first blood for Freiburg in the 28th minute to give the visitors a 1-0 lead. However, Borussia Dortmund controlled the game after that, and 4 minutes before, the break, we had 3 goals in that 4 minutes, first from Lewandowski at 41', then Nuri Sahin at 44', and Lewandowski again at 45' to send BVB 3-1 up at the break! After the break, we continued our assault by Lewandowski and Gotze and Reus did waste some good chances, before Nuri Sahin sends a great left volley to get his brace and send BVB 4-1 up! Leonardo Bittencourt who came on as a substitute in the 77th minute rounded off the win when he scored just 1 minute after he came on!
And after the BVB game finished, I was absolutely pleasant to see that Loserpool were down to Southampton 2-1!!!!! Morgan Schneiderlin and Rickie Lambert scoring in the 6 and 33 minute of the game. Philippe Countinho scored just before the break to make it 2-1. Loserpool werent playing well, oh well they are losers anyways.... and that frustration also translate into their performance especially when stupid racist and cheat Luis Suarez tries to block Artur Boruc from taking a kick, and promptly got yellow carded. Jay Rodriguez rounded off the score at 3-1 in the 80th minute, CONGRATZ SOUTHAMPTON!!!!!
Other results going my way also included Real Madrid coming back to win 5-2 against Mallorca when they recovered twice from being a goal down, where Luka Modric scores a sspectacular long range effort. And also Manchester United opening up a 15 point gap between the 2 Manchester clubs in the title race with a 1-0 win against Reading through Rooney's 21st minute goal.
Yeap, great weekend of football results anyway! Hahaha, great birthday present from BVB yeah! Hope Germany can do well against Khazakstan in the World Cup qualifiers this week too!

the past week... and the last week.... to.... an adult
Yeah, soon I will be an adult..., well this past week what i've done nothing much new really.... just sitting around olazily around the house, leading a carefree life, after all its my last week as a 19 year old... next week... i am gonna be an adult..... *weeps*
The 142nd Revierderby over the weekend was a disappointment ..... my beloved Borussia Dortmund fell 2-1 to Schalke at the Veltins Arena.... Julian Draxler opened the scoring in the 12th minute, and then Klass Jan Huntelaar doubled their advantage in the 35th minute. Robert Lewandowski 60th minute strike just proved no more than a consolation....
So, that was on Saturday, March 9.... a loss to Schalke... then Sunday i played a shit game for football.... and i am so mad at myself..... wtf. i wasnt even playing properly.... with Ibrahimovic and the team.... i felt like i let them down.... seriously.....
So after that, monday, tuesday flew past..... but on wednesday, my classmates Bronson, irsyad, Chongyang and Jason who happened to be jogging at East Coast Park (BOJIO) called me to ask if they could come to Thaipan.... i got the timing wrong for Thaipan closing hours.... thanks to the stupid voucher making me think it closes at 11pm when it closes at 10pm..... so its 940pm they reach the underpass near my house.... then have to break the bad news to them.... so i brought them to Siglap Food Centre which is beside NTUC.... and had dinner.
And then, it was football, where Bayern Munchen took on Arsenal for the 2nd leg of the UEFA Champions League. Arsenal surprisingly defeated Bayern. Olivier Giroud gave Arsenal the lead in the 3rd minute.... and then it was Arsenal all along... Arsene Wenger had dropped Thomas Vermaelen and Wojciech Szczesny from the lineup and was missing Jack Wilshere and Lukas Podolski through injury. However, for the first time this year Arsenal defence really looked solid with Kieran Gibbs, Laurent Koscielny, Per Mertesacker and Carl Jenkison doing well to keep Bayern at bay. Bayern are without Ribery but had still had Robben, who was marshalled well throughout by Arsenal defence. Even the goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski had a commanding game. Gervinho could have made the score 1-0 in the 82nd minute but wasted his chance. Then Arsenal's 2nd goal came through Laurent Koscielny who powered a header from Santi Carzola's corner. A scuffle broke out (lol) as Manuel Neuer didnt want to give the ball to Arsenal.... Bayern had a nervy game... and Theo Walcott threatened and made Bayern defence look nervy until he was substituted in the 72th minute by Alex Oxlaide Chamberlain. Nevertheless, Bayern still held out for a 2-0 loss for a 3-3 aggregate draw, going through to the quarter finals on away goals.
In the other UEFA Champions League games for the week, Barcelona romped AC Milan 4-0 at Camp Nou..... to comeback from a 2-0 defeat at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza and win 4-2 on aggregate. Galatasary won 3-2 at the Veltins Arena to win 4-3 on aggregate, and Malaga win Porto 2-0 to win 2-1 on aggregate....
So the Champions League quarter finals draw: results are
Malaga vs Borussia Dortmund
Paris St Germain vs FC Barcelona
Real Madrid CF vs Galatasary
FC Bayern Munchen vs Juventus
Oh well.... and then I bought some steam games, Battlestations Midway, Battlefield 2 and Call of Duty: World At War.... and just playing my heart out.....
Sighs... tomorrow will be work.... and my last day at work as a teenager....

what am i doing...?
yeah what the fuck am doing...? am just slacking around... doing nothing as usual....
didnt catch the UEFA Europa League last night.... but got to know Tottenham beat Inter at white hart lane 3-0 with Gareth Bale scoring a header and Sigurdsson pounced on Handanovic's earlier save from Defoe to give Spurs a 2-0 lead and then Vertonghen added a header to make it 3-0.
Andre Villas Boas was happy that Gareth Bale got a yellow card for simulation.... because he would get his dsiciplinary record wiped clean for the quarter finals. Wonder if that would get him into trouble lol. Reminds me of how in 2010 Real Madrid defeated Ajax 4-0 at the Amsterdam Arena and Jose Mourinho asked Jerzy Dudek to relay instructions to Xabi Alonso and Sergio Ramos to get themselves red carded so that they can miss the next match and have their records wiped clean. lol.
So anyways, Chelsea fans will call for Rafa Benitez's head again... after losing to Steaua Bucharest 1-0 in Bucharest thanks to a questionable penalty given against Ryan Bertrand which Rusescu converted.
Well... Europa League is not that important anyways, didnt catch the UEFA Champions League clashes between Juventus vs Celtic (2-0 FT; Matri 24', Quagliarella 65') and Paris St Germain vs Valencia CF (1-1 FT; Lavezzi 65'; Jonas 55').
Pity Celtic are out....read from match reports they played ironically some of their best footballs against Juventus over the 2 legs and the 5-0 aggregate win for Juve flattered them... Well... I will still love Celtic anyways, for their group stage heroics against Barcelona, winning 2-1 at home.
And then theres No Zlatan Ibrahimovic for Paris St Germain to whoever they will meet next as there was additional game ban for him for his red card in the first leg...
But most importantly, BORUSSIA DORTMUND ARE THROUGH TO THE QUARTER FINALS. We defeated Shakhtar Donetsk 3-0 at Wesfalenstadion!!! WOOO!!! Felipe Santana with an unstoppable header in the 31st minute, Mario Gotze finishing well from a low Lewandowski's cross to make it 2-0 in the 38th minute. Then a goalkeeping howler from Ukraine's first choice goalkeeper at Euro 2012 Andriy Pyatov as he fumbled Ilkay Gundogan's shot gave Jakub Blaszczykovski the chance to make it 3-0 and a resounding 5-2 aggregate victory for us!
In the other match, Real Madrid defeated Manchester United at Old Trafford 2-1. Manchester United dominated at first (heard from my friend Wen Pin, who was whatsapping me) but didnt finish their chances well ( or rather I think Diego Lopez was very good). Still, Man Utd took the lead when a low cross from Nani hits Danny Welbeck and then hit Sergio Ramos for an own goal in the 48th minute. But then, disaster for Man Utd when in the 56th minute, a questionable red card was shown to Nani for kicking Alvaro Arbeloa in the chest (to me, he was looking at the ball, seeking to control it, so a yellow card would have done). Rio Ferdinand sarcastically claps at the referee's decision and no punishment for him, says UEFA, lol. So, with the red card, Jose Mourinho brought on Luka Modric on for the person who got kicked, Mr Arbeloa, and Modric hits a wondeful long range shot which cannons off the post into goal to equalise for Real Madrid in the 66th minute. Then, inevitably, the man, Cristiano Ronaldo, so loved by Man Utd fans who came back to Old Trafford, scored in the 69th minute, who drives it in from a cross by Gonzalo Higuain. Diego Lopez, the goalkeeper who had been brought back by Real Madrid since Iker Casillas fractured his hand, was outstanding, repelling Man Utd attacks one after another.... and so... ended 2-1 to Real Madrid and Real thus advance with a 3-2 aggregate victory over Man Utd. Jose Mourinho said that the best team lost... and i guess he was right...
Anyways... lol... just realised my blog posts mostly match reports.... but oh well... football is life....
Have been playing football manager 2011 for this holiday so far (yes, 2011.... didnt upgrade to 2012 or 2013). Now I have just been offered to take over Sir Alex Ferguson from Man Utd in the game after he retired.... I was Sunderland manager in the game... so i gladly took up the job offer... hehe.
But well... just now have also been reading MSHS confessions and TPJC confessions on facebook. Perhaps its time to confess some stuff. So I wrote one to MSHS confessions. But TPJC confessions is really rubbish. its like 90% of confessions are about having a crush on some guy/girl.... zzz...
Ok... so sian... Saturday comes so fast.... and got to work later.... so time to sleep now...

Holidays so far...
Ok... so for this holidays... I've really just laze around. There's pretty much nothing much which I wanna do.... other than playing Football Manager....... being the manager for Sunderland A.F.C and Singapore National Football team.
Its my last few days before turning into an adult, no longer being a teenager, so i guess lazing around leading a carefree life eases the painful thought. Lol.
Anyways, Borussia Dortmund playing Shakhtar Donetsk tonight in the UEFA Champions League, with a 2-2 draw at Dombass Arena having the away goal advantage, I hope we can secure progression to the Quarter Finals. COME ON BVB!!!
The last weekend football matches saw BVB vs Hannover at the El Clasico taking place at the same time.... almost. BVB vs Hannover at 10.30pm in Singapore while Classico at 11pm. So I watched the BVB game for half an hour, where Lewandowski scored twice to give us a 2-0 lead, before switching over to watch the Clasico.
So, BVB won in the end, 3-1. With Julian Schieber and Abdellaoue adding on to the scores. In the Clasico, Real pretty much starting a changed team from the side that defeated them in the Copa Del Rey Semi-Final earlier in the week. But Barcelona made only 3 changes. Heres how the line up looks for the 2 games.
Copa Del Rey Semi-Final:
Real Madrid: Diego Lopez, Raphael Varane, Sergio Ramos, Fabio Coentrao, Sami Khedira, Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil, Xabi Alonso, Alvaro Arbeloa, Gonzalo Higuain, Angel Di Maria.
Barcelona: Jose Pinto, Dani Alves, Gerard Pique, Carlos Puyol, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Xavi, Francesc Fabregas, Pedro Rodriguez, Andres Iniesta, Lionel Messi.
And in the La Liga game:
Real Madrid, Diego Lopez, Raphael Varane, Sergio Ramos, Fabio Coentrao, Kaka, Karim Benzima, Michael Essien, Luka Modric, Jose Maria Callejon, Alvaro Morata.
Barcelona: Victor Valdes, Dani Alves, Gerard Pique, Javier Mascherano, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Thiago Alcantra, David Villa, Pedro Rodriguez, Andres Iniesta, Lionel Messi.
And Real Madrid still won !!!! 2-1. So they beat Barca twice in a week!!!!! The game got off to a good start for Real, where Benzema scored in the 6 minute. But then, Messi scored his 50th goal of the season at the 18th minute to equalise.... But then, Barcelona never looked like they were in control of the game despite having more possession. Cristiano came on in the 57th minute and terrorised Barcelona. He registered 6 shots on goal in that short time, compared to Barcelona's 5 for the whole game. The game was eventually won in the 82th minute by Sergio Ramos who powered a header past Valdes. There was controversy (or is there?) late on in the game when Adriano was felled in the box in injury time by Sergio Ramos, Real's stand-in captain (but looked more like a dive by Adriano to me, Barca are cheaters after all). So no penalty, Real went on to win 2-1, and Victor Valdes got himself red carded by the referee for shouting in his face. He was shown a yellow card but he continued shouting so he got a 2nd yellow card 2 seconds later HA.
Ok, football action later. Very exciting. Manchester United vs Real Madrid at Old Trafford, Manchester where Cristiano returns. Epic match up but I'm watching Dortmund.

Exams over... and a mini class gathering
Oh well... Security and Surveillance... some thing happened during the paper... invigilator suspected I was cheating.... oh well... heard from my classmate that when I dropped the paper i immediately got his attention. What an overreactive freak.
Whatever it is... its all over... Finally.
Was very surprised with my classmate that he actually made up his mind to drop out of school. It wasnt nice to see him go... just like that.... Although i dont really like working with him for projects... but still... theres a good side to everyone... so yeah..... its still sad....
Anyways later on, my classmates Irsyad, Kean Sing, Wei Qiang, Clara and Chelsea came over to my house. We ate at Thaipan, using the vouchers they mail to the residents monthly.... and unfortunately, the food we had there yesterday was not as good as last month.
Irsyad apparently sustained an abrasion on his right shoulder whilst trying to do a backflip.... Lol.... and also unfortuantely, my house no medical supplies, so I ran to Siglap Centre to purchase some antiseptic stuff and the various items.
So Wei Qiang, being Tiger Airways certified medic, helped him with the wound, and he was kinda in pain... and the girls took a video. hahaha. but oh well, seldom go out with my classmates, so must really thank them for coming over and being my guests.
Anyways, I did watch the Bayern Munchen vs Borussia Dortmund before the paper.... and Borussia Dortmund was absolutely lawnmowed over by Bayern Munchen. Bayern only won 1-0 through Arjen Robben's goal from distance, but could have been more.
Anyways, just time to do whatever I want... for now.... and time flies.... its now March 2013.... sighs.... just 20 more days and I would no longer be a teenager....

1 more paper to FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok... so just hibernated from 2pm - 8.30pm.... body clock pretty much screwed up for examinations.
Business Continuity Management Paper was ok... i guess? The 10 questions hint were of great help. Now ... theres just Security and Surveillance Paper tomorrow at 2.30pm.
Anyways, today BCM paper didnt go well with an incident... my classmate got caught having a handphone during the paper itself.... and being caught cheating in TP is no joke man.... your exam paper not just zero, but the weightage for all subjects all zero, contributing to a big fat zero for ur GPA that sem.... So... ir eally do feel for him.... just like how i felt for my other 2 classmates who got caught last semester....
Anyways.... football result yesterday
FC Barcelona 1-3 Real Madrid C.F. (WOOOOOOHOOOO)
Jordi Alba 89' - Cristiano 13' (Pen) 57' , Varane 68'
Real Madrid proceed to the final of the Copa Del Rey with a 4-2 aggregate victory over FC Barcelona!!!!!! And most importantly... Cristiano > Messi !!!!!!!!!!1
Sadly... couldnt watch the game... and I only watched the highlights...i thought the penalty appeals by FC Barcelona were ridiculous... glad that this referee wasnt biased. And besides, fuck Jordi Alba for some nonsensical playacting. Pepe and Busquets fight... WOAH NICE... and Diego Lopez... many people said hes no Casillas.... but i thought he put in very good displays for Real in the 2 legs against Barcelona! I've never doubted the ability of Diego Lopez when I watched him play for Villarreal. Real Madrid will now face Barcelona again in the weekend for Liga BBVA at the Santiago Bernebau and Manchester United at Old Trafford next week. WOAH and thats great because EXAMS ARE OVER BY THEN!
But now.... Borussia Dortmund is playing FC Bayern Munchen later for the DFB Pokal Cup. Of course, I wish i can watch the match.... but in a dilemma on whether to watch... or on television while doing work...? or what??? sighs.....
And now... as always for the last paper... it feels like a holiday mood..... FUCK YOU PT CONCENTRATE ON STUDYING FOR LAST PAPER THEN ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM AFTER THAT LAH!!!!!!!!
Okay.... better revise Security and Surveillance. NOW.

I've never doubted the ability of Diego Lopez when I watched him play for Villarreal. Real Madrid will now face Barcelona again in the weekend for Liga BBVA at the Santiago Bernebau and Manchester United at Old Trafford next week. WOAH and thats great because EXAMS ARE OVER BY THEN!
But now.... Borussia Dortmund is playing FC Bayern Munchen later for the DFB Pokal Cup. Of course, I wish i can watch the match.... but in a dilemma on whether to watch... or on television while doing work...? or what??? sighs.....
And now... as always for the last paper... it feels like a holiday mood..... FUCK YOU PT CONCENTRATE ON STUDYING FOR LAST PAPER THEN ENJOY YOUR FREEDOM AFTER THAT LAH!!!!!!!!
Okay.... better revise Security and Surveillance. NOW.

Main Exams Semester 2.2
So, down to last 2 papers, Business Continuity Management later today at 9.30am and tomorrow's Security and Surveillance at 2.30pm!
Come on, Puay Tong, focus you can do it!!!
Studying for main exams always feel damn sian, but then the freedom after that, is like.... woah!! So good, so great....! So yeah, just 2 more days of shit and we are done!!! CHIONG AHH!!!!
Anyways for this time round main exams, there were some routine changes from my other main exams period in polytechnic. The subjects I taking this semester were mainly very anal, so much fucking memorising.... and my usual study buddy my classmate Sara wanted to focus his studies at home, so I only had a day of studying with him at Changi Airport T2 Coffeebean.
I also studied with my classmate Clara who happened to be at the airport too. Thats all on the first day of studyweek on monday. So study with Sara from 1pm - 4pm... then study alone and had a little nap, then Clara asked on the class whatsapp group whos going to the airport to study. Back then, i ran out of pencil lead for my mechnaical pencil, and airport dont sell lead, and buying a new mechanical pencil would be such as waste of $$....
So that day, went to find her at T1 Starbucks at the Arrival Hall level. So, yeah first time having another classmate and of another gender studying with me lol.
After that day of studying with 2 classmates, i studied alone throughout the week at T3 Coffeebean at Changi Airport....
That was until on Sunday, I met with a fellow Marist 1 year my junior Bryan Choong to study Ground Handling Operations and Management and Project Management. First time studying with a Marist and was quite productive actually, he teach me how draw AON Diagram for PM while I teach him back how to do Decision Tree Analysis! Yeah. Guess stidying with a buddy do help sometimes.
Whilst studying with Bryan, he asked me some Secondary school stuff in Maris Stella like how my whole class pon school! HAHAHA!!! I nearly forgot about it until he reminded me about it again! HAHAHA! Fond Secondary School memories man!!

Ok.... so now... have to get back to studying.... Thinking about the papers i done so far.... i think i screwed up 2 papers already.... sighs... now i cant afford to screw up anymore papers....
But, come on! 2more days to Freedom!!! CHEONG AHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
But, come on! 2more days to Freedom!!! CHEONG AHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
And no.... I wont be able to watch FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid for Copa Del Rey semi-final 1st leg tonight (BOOOHOOOS!!!!!!) But then COME ON REAL MADRID COME ON JOSE AND CRISTIANO!!!!!!!!!
And football results over the weekend: Borussia Monchengladbach 1-1 Borussia Dortmund. Mario Gotze's penalty got cancelled out by Amin Younes....
There were other exciting football over the weekend too... with Paris St Germain defeating Olympique Marseille at the Parc Des Princes with the whole world media focusing on David Beckham's PSG debut. Before the match started, Ibrahimovic handed a PSG jersey to Brazil's legend Ronaldo, who happens to be Ibrahimovic's role model.
After that, Beckham was like being followed by a camera all day long, and his wife Victoria Beckham too in the VIP seats. Beckham came on in the 76 minute for Javier Pastore, with PSG leading 1-0 through an own goal from N'Koulou and goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu making several fine saves then. David Beckham then created a goal from Ibrahimovic, giving Menez a nice chipped pass who played for Ibrahimovic to score.
And then there was Internazionale Milano vs AC Milan. The Milan derby started with Stephane El Saraawy scoring in the 21st minute, with Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic making many fine saves. Christian Abbiati also had a good save to make, but could not stop young Ezequiel Matias Schelotto from rescuing a point for Milan.
So yeah, didnt watch any of those 2 great games.... only watch highlights... fuck exams... but remember Puay Tong... 2 MORE days ONLY!

Barcelona defeated!!!!!
Ok... i woke up at 3.30pm.... havent done any revision as of yet. Will be doing that (of course) later....
And lol, just realised I have typed match reports than blogging hahaha....
Anyways.... watched the UEFA Champions League last night, and the results are:
Galatasary 1-1 FC Schalke 04
Galatasary 1-1 FC Schalke 04
AC Milan 2-0 FC Barcelona (WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)
BARCA LOST!!!!!!! WOOO!!!! Hate those cheats and divers and referee buyers, and last night, the Scottish referee Craig Thompson did a good game. And even though AC Milan had only 34% of ball possession, they totally outplayed Barcelona, and Barcelona didnt even create a single chance at all!!!!!!!!! Kudos to AC Milan, team play was simply fantastic, proves they are more than a team than Stephan El Sharaawy and Mario Balotelli.
Hahaha at Mario Balotelli at the stands with so many girls surrounding him. Playboy siol. He couldnt play the match since he was cuptied due to representing for Manchester Shitty earlier in the competition so Giampaolo Pazzini stood in his place.
Suprisingly, this is the first match I've watched involving Barcelona since their semi-final defeat to Chelsea on aggregate 3-2 last season Champions League semi-final where Drogba and Roberto Di Matteo the manager were the heroes. I couldnt be bothered abt Barca and their bunch of cheats winning anyways. But then kudos to Celtic for beating them at home and also nearly away too, too bad i didnt watch that, but still downloaded the highlights and Fraser Forster, Lustig and co. were simply amazing.

I couldnt be bothered abt Barca and their bunch of cheats winning anyways. But then kudos to Celtic for beating them at home and also nearly away too, too bad i didnt watch that, but still downloaded the highlights and Fraser Forster, Lustig and co. were simply amazing.
But well, back to the topic, ever since the match kicked off between AC Milan and Barcelona, i felt no sense that Barcelona was controlling the game at all despite their superior possession. Milan were super in defending with El Sharaawy and the rest of the attack coming back to help the defence. Half time and the scores were tied at 0-0.
And there was 1 qn on this game. Wheres Lionel Messi? seemed to have disappeared ever since emerging from the tunnel at the Giuseppe Meazza. Haha, so Cristiano outshoned him this time! Cristiano header against his former team Man Utd was class.
Then AC Milan's goal came through Kevin Prince Boateng. Dani Alves late tackle on El Sharaawy earned AC Milan a free kick. Montolivo's free kick hit Jordi Alba's arm, then ball hit Christian Zapata's arm too and the loose ball found Boateng, who shoots low and hard into goal!
Francesc Fabregas was then replaced by Alexis Sanchez, with the game still tied, a Milan breakaway saw a clash of heads between Barca captain Carlos Puyol and Giampaolo Pazzini (OUCH!!!). Both men's head were bleeding, and taken off the field for treatment. With that clash, Pazzini was replaced soon after by Mbaye Niang, but Puyol stayed on longer on the pitch.
And the second goal for Milan came, and it was a superb combination of teamplays and three volleys. The substitute Niang gave a good volleyed cross to El Sharaawy, who in turns, makes a good volleyed pass to Sulley Ali Muntari, who rifled in the ball with another great volley.
With Mario Balotelli enjoying on the stands, and Barcelona trying to grab an away goal. A corner from Barcelona saw Carlos Puyol heading the ball with his bleeding head wide of goal and the plaster was loose after that. (OUCH!!). That was Puyol's last contribution, with him departing and replaced by Javier Mascherano. AC Milan also made a change with the hardworking El Sharaawy replaced by Bakaye Traore. With Barcelona still surging forward, there was 5 minutes of stoppage time added, but Barcelona found no way through and the Milan goalkeeper didnt even have any notable saves to make at all!!
And so, AC Milan 2-0 Barcelona was the final score, and AC Milan celebrated like mad.
In the other game, big spending Galatasary started big signings Didier Drogba and Wesley Sneijder from Shanghai Shenghua and Internazionale Milano respectively. Took the lead through a superb individual effort by Burak Yilmaz. Schalke equalised though with Jefferson Farfan providing the assist for Jermaine Jones, who placed a neat finish past former Lazio goalkeeper Fernando Muslera. Hamit Altintop had a shot hit the crossbar later in the game with Timo Hildebrand not recovered fully from his initial save from Drogba. So there it goes, Galatasary 1-1 FC Schalke 04.
And lol, just realised I have typed match reports than blogging hahaha....
Oh well.... time to study, ATSYS2 paper tomorrow at 2.30pm. All the best to.... myself... and the others taking exams too!
AC Milan vs Barcelona... and 1 more day to exams...
Oh... exams... exams....
Its on Friday. My tutor for Airport systems 2 Mr Andrew sent me our cumulative grade which accounts of 60% of the subject. The other 40% of the paper will be based on our main exams. I found out I got 80.2 / 100 for that, so now just 66/100 for main exams and I get A for ATSYS2 WOO. But come on... dont get overconfident Puay Tong, you still need to DO the exam paper....
Today went to Changi Airport Terminal 3 Coffee Bean to study a little of Security and Surveillance and Project Management. Went at 5pm, came back home at 11pm. So now... 3 hours to go to AC Milan vs Barcelona... I better study for ATSYS2 later ahh
Anyways, yesterday UEFA Champions League scores:
Porto 1-0 Malaga (what a useless match)
Arsenal FC 1-3 FC Bayern Munchen
Poor Arsenal. Despite the hype of Jack Wilshere being Bayern;s main threat, he only turned on his game for the 2nd half and Santi Carzola was Arsenal's best player of the first half. Actually Arsenal started well, but then Toni Kroos struck first for the visitors in the 7th minute. Thomas Muller doubled Bayern's advantage in the 21st when a poor defending at a corner by Arsenal saw Van Buyten getting a head to the ball, which was kept out by Wojciech Szczesny and Muller pounced on the rebound.
A mini revival for Arsenal from the 40th minute to the 70th minute saw Arsenal getting a goal back from Lukas Podolski the former Bayern man. The goal by Podolski suddenly regenerated Podolski and it was spoilt when he had to make way for our former Borussia Dortmund midfielder Tomas Rosicky (WHAT?!). Santi Carzola had drifted away in the 2nd half, though, and Jack Wilshere had become Arsenal's one man show on the pitch, taking on the imposing Javi Martinez and Bastian Schweinsteige at Bayern's midfield. Arsenal fell apart after the 70th minute, and that allowed Mario Mandzukic to get a 3rd for Bayern albeit a rather strange goal hahaha. So Arsenal, so called kindergarden kids, got child abused by rampant Bayern, with fans calling for Arsene Wenger's head and question why Theo Walcott started ahead of Olivier Giroud.
Oh well, in the other match, I couldnt care less what happened. But heard from news that Joao Moutinho scored a controversial goal and had Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini furious. So time to check out what happened later.
And it will be AC Milan vs Barcelona later. Come on MILAN!

Its exams.... soon.
Yes. 1st paper would be Airport Systems 2 at 2.30pm.
Studied yesterday with my classmate Sarayutt at the Airport, then after that study overnight with female classmate till 6am in the morning.
Was David Sng's birthday yesterday, but only threw him a mini celebration today. Just went to his house, with Cavin and Ibrahimovic.
Gave him an Arsenal jacket since he said he wanted it. lol. We had dinner takeaway at Bedok market... no hill street Char Kway Teow... so settle for the fried hokkien prawn mee instead. was good. ibrahimovic had chicken rice, ok lah the chicken rice i feel.
We watched Johor Darul Takzim vs Lions XII. I was interested in the match, but not sure whether the other 3 were as keen though. haha. For me, oh well, i was interested since Johor Darul Takzim is big spending club and had brought former Mallorca, Getafe and Fenerbahce and Euro 2008 Spanish striker Daniel Guiza and former Lazio midfielder Simone Del Nero, and signed a host of Malaysian stars such as Safiq Rahim and Safee Sali (joker who was 1 of the 2 double bicycle kick against Singapore), and had Singapore legend Fandi Ahmad as their coach.
Anyway, Lions XII took the lead through Hariss Harun in the 4th minute, haha. Then Simone Del Nero equalised for Johor Darul Takzim in the 15th minute. He took off his shirt to celebrate like as if he scored a goal in the world cup final (lol), and got yellow carded (stupid). Then, a Lions XII free kick was met by a good diving header by Baihakki Khaizan where Lions XII again took the lead in the 37th minute. Bored us after that.
So David's mum came back, so finally the birthday celebration for David can begin. Glad Cavin bought a Mango cake, as David hates chocolate. No lighter, so we didnt light up any candles, nor sing a happy birthday song (sad). just cut up the cake and makan.
So as for the game, we only came back for the game at 65th minute, where the score was still 2-1 in Lions XII's favour.
Then on the 80th minute, Idlan Tahala skip challenge of 2 Lions XII players and had a neat finish past the Lions XII goalkeeper. However, it was just a neat finish, not some spectacular goal like what the commentator was describing. It wasnt goal of the season lah, please.
Commentator used lots of superlatives unnecessarily in the game, which got me and ibrahimovic laughing.
Anyway, the game finished full time: Johor Darul Takzim 2-2 Lions XII.
And sighs, talking about birthdays, mine is 1 month away only. I will no longer be a teenager after that =(
i just wonder if my birthday was ever significant anyway. still no individual birthday present yet from anyone in my entire life..... if i had one, i would be so happy.....
Theres some exciting football action later with Arsenal FC taking on FC Bayern Munchen in the UEFA Champions League. Porto vs Malaga is useless in the other game. Lol.
Interesting to see who will dominate the midfield. Schweinsteiger or Jack Wilshere. And whether the slow Daniel Van Buyten will be played against the speedy Theo Walcott, and how Philipp Lahm and David Alaba can do damage. Bayern has been in deadly form, having no goals conceded as of yet in 2013. Its such total domination till Manuel Neuer had to keep himself awake in the match against Schalke in their 4-0 thrashing by doing warm up training with substitute Thomas Muller in heading balls. So lets see if Olivier Giroud, Lukas Podolski, Santi Carzola and co. can do some damage.
Ok, thats all for now.. will study a bit on Security and Surveillance and if possible, a little of Business Continuity Management.

life after valentines day
No valentines day plans... so... woke up late... as usual... went to school.....
Met with ibrahimovic (siok xue yuan), little boy (javier goh) for lunch at design school then ran into Darwin, Erwin and Wen Pin too so we ate together...
Ask little boy watch Liverpool vs Zenit st petersburg with me... dont want as usual... lol....
so went on to Mary's lesson for ground handling... was kinda boring... and then the last lecture for security and surveillance. hope i got down all the important points for exams.
anyways, ibrahimovic invited me to go plan football at 7pm with his pri sch friends, unfortunately i couldnt as some family friends were coming over visiting for Chinese New Year.
So yeah... they came over... ask them install funshion on my computer... then dont know why... suddenly my internet browsers all went crazy.... all cant load... so i uninstall funshion.... then like that lor....
now that google chrome went back to normal, hence i am updating this blog right now...
Anyways, going on to football, last night Champions League results
Real Madrid C.F. 1-1 Manchester United F.C.
Shakhtar Donetsk 2-2 Borussia Dortmund.
Although our team made defensive mistakes, was anyway happy we got the two vital away goals... through Robert Lewandowski capitalising on a Shakhtar defensive mistake (2 defenders ran into each other LOL) and Mats Hummels header, who made up for his defensive error leading to Shakhtar 2nd goal and he also hit the post through a header earlier in the match too.
For the Real vs MU game, watched the highlights only... found that De Gea made a great save with his leg... but i thought Manuel Neuer save with his leg against Porto was much better save. Anyways, my friends MU fans WP and ibra were ranting against German referee Felix Brych for ending the game 10 seconds early when MU was about to take a corner. AHAHAH.
Ok... so yeap. I am still single for now... no valentines day for me. Wish little boy can get Gladys as his partner though. haha. And life after valentines day, later going to great 2rd aunt house for visiting for CNY.
And it will be exams soon.... next friday... Puay tong u gotta start hitting the books with the serious determination man....
yeah good luck to my fellow AMS mates as well having main exams also. all the best

Valentine's day 2013 ... no valentines actually
I know today is Valentine's day.... but i am single... *yays!*... whatever...
Feel like i am a coward sometimes... like dont dare confess to the girl i like that i do like her....
oh well.... i dont have the looks either...
Anyways, theres UEFA Champions League football tonight! And I am so happy that Borussia Dortmund topped a tough Champions League group containing Real Madrid, Man Shitty and Ajax after a disastrous Champions League campaign last year and make it to face Shakhtar Donetsk in the 1st knockout round! COME ON BVB!
We Borussia Dortmund did not feature in Champions League football for 7 years, betwen 2004 to 2011, so i am happy we finally returned to where we belong!!
However, Shakhtar Donetsk arent pushovers and are a mighty force in their home the Dombass Arena, so lets hope BVB is up to the task!
I am not sure whether Neven Subotic is ready for the game after coming back from injury. Felipe Santana played last weekend defeat to Hamburg though. Only know Ilkay Gundogan is out with a foot injury... eeewww... his facebook photo shows his foot look damn swollen.
Hope BVB do bounce back for this game, as we played disastrously against Hamburg where we lost 4-1. Although must say the referee was fucking biased anyhow go red card Robert Lewandowski.
So my predicted starting line up: Weidenfeller - Schmelzer, Hummels, Santana, Piszczek - Sven Bender, Kehl - Reus, Gotze, Blaszczykowski - Lewandowski.
The other Champions League result later would be Real Madrid vs Manchester United at the Santiago Bernebau. sad that i cant watch this game as i have to watch my team play.
Anyways, last night Champions League matches result:
Celtic 0-3 Juventus
Celtic 0-3 Juventus
Valencia 1-2 Paris St Germain.
HAHAHAHA at Zlatan Ibrahimovic's red card. Went on a rampage, push Dani parejo then stamp on Andres Guardado.
Ok, no valentines day for me, only football, tomorrow got school, hope still got energy for Ms Mary's lesson. yay.
