Sukalah tu menang...

Singapore may have defended the title but I say, it was Thailand's game. The Thais definitely played a brilliant game than that in the first leg. Singapore's defence continuously being shaken by the Thais' dangerously excecuted attacks. It took the Lions really long to rebound back in game. Amri's goal came as a consolation, for the Lions who were profusely panting and trying to catch their breath. Of course, with that goal, came the very familiar,usual "waste time" tactic. I thought Noh Rahman played a great game and contributed a lot to the Lions' victory. Aide must have hated himself for demonstrating such lousy and clumsy skills.

Congratulations Singapore! I know my dad was disappointed. His support is always for the opponent. You should have seen his face when Amri delivered that winning goal and the whole housing estate was roaring and cheering. My mum couldnt help but laughed. Oh, that Nutnam guy is cute eh and why was that Precious guy did not look drenched in sweat? His face was kinda dry while you see everybody else had sweat trickling down their faces, hair and all over. Ok ok, 1 more thing before I end this. What's with the slipdresses donned by the ladies on stage? Also, I couldnt help but to ask this question "How many of them are genuine?" hehe. But whatever it is, I love Thailand and her people. Ok ok one very last thing to share. I liked Thailand's manager's answer when asked about the coach leaving for a Vietnam football club. "If he goes, then we'll find another one" Very straighforward. I like. LOL!

The week went by much slower than a giant tortoise's pace. It didnt help either when you were feeling all down and shitty. But as soon as the weekend came, things started to shine. Thanks love for making it all better. I am very much grateful for your presence.

This morning, I finally decided to break away from my sleep, which has been an interrupted one anyway. Then I saw it. I stood by the kitchen window and suddenly, everything came rushing to my head. It's the same questions and doubts about the future ahead. I went to my room and started to cry.

I hate myself for having these negative and stupid thoughts. As much as I tried to filter them, they seem to always find their way through my messy head. I do not want to be selfish. It is sacrifice they say but I am not too sure if I am capable of it. I am the sort who goes by "prevention is better than cure". I prefer to work things out now rather than having to deal with it when it comes. But at times, things do not go that way. Sometimes we oughta just go with flow. It really scares the hell out of me sometimes.

I think I've learnt relatively enough life scenarios to make me aware of what are needed and what to be eschewed. I don't want to keep on lamenting. I want to do something about it. I want a win win solution so everybody is happy. I want to come up with the best option but it is never easy when you have others to think about. Like I mentioned earlier, I do not want to come across as the selfish one though at times when you think about your life, your future, there are moments filled with temptations to stop in track and continue the path alone. Bloody obvious, clear cut. It is the easiest way out. But it's not and I hope never will be my option.

Gotta wake the boy up now and demand for my pizza. Hopefully, that will take the shit off my mind. Food never fails to cheer me up and make me forget about my woes.

Seriously, I dunno where to begin. Too many events took place, after one another. I simply couldnt find time to blog. I have stories and pictures to share but knowing me, I'm just too lazy and yes, simply no time. The madness began during the week leading to feeza's wedding. We, the butterfly gals were by her side since Wednesday all the way till Sunday. In the midst of all the preparations, it was quality time for all of us too. I would like to write more about the wedding but I guess I'll leave that to the bride to update once she's back from her honeymoon.

But it was a beautiful wedding indeed, an emotional one and once a lifetime opportunity to see han got all so emotional and teary, haha. He totally casted his ego aside. He cried, feeza cried and we all cried. So touching ah. I had fun, being one of the bridemaids. Totally love our outfits. I think I had fun too (at times annoying too), trying to control the crowd who went crazy coz you see, hady was han's bestman and nadirah was the maid of honour. Nan and nin were there too. There's this makcik who was a total papparazi. I wish I could just dragged her away from the event and bashed her up. ok I'm exaggerating but she was that annoying ok.

Wedding's over and we all met up again at John Legend's concert at esplanade concert hall. It was nice to see friends whom I've not met for ages. John Legend was HOT. He took my breath away.

The madness continued the next day at Muse's gig at Fort Canning. Queue was formed as early as 6am and when I joined the queue, it felt strange coz I was surrounded with young people who probably skipped school for the day. Yes, i felt so old. When the gates were finally opened, the guys insisted that we squeezed thru the crowd to get as close as possible to the stage and stood there, sandwiched, for like 2 hours before the trio finally made their appearance, in between got really annoyed by some inconsiderate morons.

Muse just had to play Knights of Cydonia as the opening song and everyone went totally crazy. The fear of falling down and die in a stampede got the better of me. I couldnt breathe and simply did not have the energy to go with the crazy flow. Just when I tried to calm down, I felt a hard impact on my tummy. I was ready to throw that punch back but couldnt figure out who did it. I started to tear and became all claustrophobic. seeing me like that,mohd pulled me out away from the crowd, into the open air. It was an embarassing moment coz I was crying like a baby. I must had looked horrible, making my way out through the crowd, bumping into some people I know along the way. Mohd's face clearly showed that he was rather irritated. I felt so bad that I cried even more. I couldnt stop apologising coz I've ruined his nite. But soon enough he was thankful that he was away from the crowd, getting to enjoy the gig in a much more comfortable environment. I guess we are indeed too old for such things. Despite that shitty incident, we totally enjoyed ourselves though we felt that the gig was too short. Amirul was in a state of destruction when we met him after the gig. All drenched in sweat, wobbly legs and out of breath. Apparently, he managed to place himself right under Matt's nose. That boy is crazy.

The madness began to subside a little now. I'm looking forward to Jens Lekman's little gig next week and of course, Good Vibrations Festival. I simply cant believe Mad Mats is going to be here. I enjoyed his sets back in Stockholm. I remembered talking to Haris and Ron that Mats should come here and that seems to be coming true. Oh yes, this year's Mosaic Festival is featuring a number of great acts. I wanna see Rachael Yamagata, Take 6, Yo La Tengo and many more and that means more moolahs to be spent. arrggghh!!!

For now, let's relax a bit shall we *turning on Isqueez*

Fixalicious!!!
Monday, January 8, 2007, 12:37 p.m.

Over the weekend, a certain suite in M Hotel was transformed into a 80s Malay wedding. Guests clad in their most outrageous 80s outfit, waited anxiously for the bride's arrival (the Village People would have been very proud!). The 2 pengapits fetched the bride to be from home. She was blindfolded all the way to the destination, all the while thinking that we all were going across the causeway for the gathering (thanks to our excellent acting. haha)

So,after all the guessings, the questionings and being kept in the dark for so long, everything was finally revealed when we carried and placed her in the jacuzzi in the suite. Blindfold removed and her surprised face was priceless. She was then given a tour around to check out the great food by "Sri Anggerik Catering", the bedroom decor and the gifts. I think we were all so intrigued by the cake that we took us awhile to devour it but of course not before we made Fiza had her "first lick". Special performances were then presented for the bride. Just when she thought it was over, we kept presenting her more and more. There were the "fixalicious dance", the apache dance, the silat, the berinai session, the jacuzzi and pool session, the bonding and girl talk session and the dvds marathon.

We had so much fun that we didnt care that our feet and body ached the next morning. It's been while since we all got together and do the crazy stuff. The butterfly gals' very first hen nite and it was success!! Woohoo! Thank you gals!!! Most importantly, the bride to be had so much fun herself and enjoyed every minute of it. Till the next one in 5 months time. Gonna be a stressful one coz it's for our "Chief". haha. Like any other hen nites, the pictures are too explicit to be put up here. Will put up the decent and "pose and smile" ones lah.

Fabulous!
Thursday, January 4, 2007, 05:44 p.m.

So it's a brand new year. Happy New Year to all of you! Like past years, I do not list down any new year's resolutions. I rather regard it as room for improvement. So yea, this year, there are several areas I would like to improve on, some are new ones and some are those I've been working on over the years. I chose to leave 2006 with the good memories and experiences. The bad ones are not for keeps but as references for lessons in life. We all hope for a great year ahead. But hoping is merely not enough. While some things we have no control of, we do play a part in making the year ahead a great one or otherwise. They say live life to the fullest, seize the day. Try achieving that for the next 361 days. Trust me, it's not an easy thing to do. Be realistic and enjoy the year ahead, within your capabilities.

Moving on, it's a busy start to the new year. Project F is just around the corner (in 2 days time!). Things are falling into places and all is set. We are all very excited and simply cant wait to execute it. I know, it is more excruciating and torturous wait for the bride to be who was kept in dark (of course) and had to endure our irritating secret conversations and whisperings, throwing clues here and there. Even her mum and sis played along. Soooo fun!!! *Evil laughter* Fifi, it will be over very soon so stop questioning lah eh. It's just 2 days away. It will be worth the wait I tell ya. *evil laughter*

Right after Project F, it's time to get busy with preparations for the 1st wedding of the butterfly gals. Oh, that reminds me that we need to call Melissa and check whether our bridemaids outfits are ready!!! I'm praying hard that they will turn out good coz I have doubts and certain reservations since the outfits are individually designed by us and for most of us, it is our first time having our outfits made there. If everything turns out well, I just have one word to describe the combo "Fabulous!" Simply can't wait to see them.
