Avril Lavigine - Complicated

Hmmm, do I have a thing for rocker chicks? Well, she's very special, & this is my favourite song by Avril Lavigne. Enjoy it folks!!!



Uh-huh,
Life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That's the way it is
'Cause life's like this
Uh-huh, uh-huh
That's the way it is

Chill out,
What you yellin' for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

I like you the way you are
When we're, driving in my car
And you're talking to me
One on one
But you become

Somebody else
'Round everyone else
Watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool
You look like a fool
To me

Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it

No, no, no

You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are and
Where you sat, you see
You're making me
Laugh out
When you strike a pose
Take off all your preppy clothes
You know
You're not fooling anyone
When you become

Somebody else
'Round everyone else
Watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
Tryin' to be cool
You look like a fool
To me

Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me
I'm never gonna find you fake it

No, no, no...

Chill out,
What you yellin' for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could let it be
You will see

Somebody else
'Round everyone else
You're watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool
You look like a fool
To me, to me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it

No, no

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this, you
And you fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty Promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it

Be true to yourself, don't fake it, cheers!!!

The cursed match

Friends told me that England has not won a game in the past 15 years, or was it 50 years? Hmmm. My ears need a checkup. Anyway it was a really long time, & England could only draw or lose to Sweden, so the logical wager would be to "eat balls" or get an positive asian handicap right? No, my backside was itchy, the England supporter in me was strong & rampant, so I "give / put balls" or got a negative asian handicap. In the end, my joy turned into pain when they equalized at the 90th minute!!! The curse is true!!! Chou Ji Dan!!!

Another low point of the match came as early as the 4th minute when Owen was injured (I do not know how) & had to be subsituted by Peter Crouch. Sigh. How come strikers get injured all the time? First it was Rooney, then Owen. I guess even if they do not get to play competitive soccer in future, all the money they are making now & the insurance payout is more than enough to last 3 generations. Maybe it would last just half a generation for them because they are not as thrifty & investment orientated as Asians are in general. Heez.

Please be careful on the pitch & get any more injuries hor!!! Wait no more strikers for England liao. Sigh.

Ja neh!!!

Kimchi is better than Escargots

I do not like kimchi & I definitely do not have the courage to try escargots. Wonder how come people like eating snails, even though they are bred in farms like chicken. Hmmm. Anyway South Korea has done Asia proud by holding the mighty French to a draw, especially with all the talent & superstars in the French team like Henry, Zidane, etc.

When will Singapore be represented on the world stage?

Sigh.

Ja neh!!!

No goal avalanche from Samba Masters

Not quite the trashing some of us were expecting from the great Brazilians, winners of 5 out of 17 World Cups. Australia, on the other hand, were making their debuts in soccer's most prestigeous competition. Must credit should be given to the Aussie coach. I heard that every team he has coached made it into the World Cup Finals. QUite a track. I have also heard that he was appraoched by Singapore & he turned down the offer to coach our Lions. Oh dear. Are we really that hopeless?




















A lot of focus was on Mr Cheeseburger aka Ronaldo. Sigh. He has lost his explosive runs, his fearsome shots on goal & quite a lot of other physical aspects of the game. He looks tired, almost nonchalant. However, I do believe he is trying up make up his lack of speed & enegry with intelligent play. I guess it's time to use the brain more than those muscles, Mr Cheeseburger.

He did make a few great moves & I do believe he reads the game as well as he did previously. Cheeseburger still has almost all of his ball control skills & if he sheds the extra kilos, he should be able to do do more justice to the 4-2-4 formation. Which team have you heard of that plays with 4 strikers & only 2 midfielders!!! Maddness!!!

Zzzzzz monster coming liao.

Oyasumi Nasai!!!

The day 10 Italians cannot beat 9 Americans in soccer

Nothing much to say because I am really pissed off with those Italians. Make me lose money nevermind, play like shit somemore. Sigh. The referee even more power. I think FIFA told him got card bonus & free kick bonus. 1 yellow card got 10000 Euros as bonus , 1 red card is 25000 Euros. Free kicks are not really free but 500 Euros a piece. Italy, I look down on you!!! Pui chao nuah.

Chou Ji Dan!!!

Girls in bikini!!!

Bikini Shodo (I think it means some form of calligraphy)

For all the pervets & hot-blooded males out there.



Ufooo!!!

Safe sex on planes

For my sexually-active friends in general , or those planning to joing the Mile High Club, please do practice safe sex & wear a condom for 1 of the simplest & most effective family planning methods.



Ja neh!!!

Largest defeat in World Cup 2006 so far

Serbia & Montenegro was eaten alive by Argentina in the 2nd match of yesterday. Not literally eaten alive, but somehow I feel that the pain would not have been as great as if it was literal. Well, 3-0 is considered a thrashing by the opposition at national level, but at international level? Hmmm. All the "face" gone already. So if you had a choice between losing 6-0 & being eaten alive, which you you choose? As a soccer diehard fan, they probably would choose to become a meal for another person. Ouch!!!

Soccer legend & junkie Maradona was seen cheering his head off. He was so estastic, he could burst a vessel somewhere in his body. Must be a really great feeling if you have been there, done that & get to see the next generation repeat the same success you have tasted once before. He's rather controversial but I guess we will have to let his skills on the pitch decide whether he is a great player & not by how he lives his life outside of the soccer stadium.

Next match to match I guess is Brazil vs Australia. Will there be a goal avalanche?

Ja neh!!!

Singaporean referee sends off Angolan

The last match of the day, Mexico vs Angola produced quite an upset in wee hours of the morning (Singapore time). I took a small interest in the match because it was officiated by a referee from our very own backyard!!! Wow!!! Even though Singapore probably will never qualify for the finals of the FIFA World Cup, despite some minister coming up with some Singapore 2010 plan, our tiny nation was represented in another area. Maybe this might spur some of us to be excellent, world class referees instead of trying so hard to be samba masters or shrew tacticians. I guess it is easier to find 1 world class referee instead of 23 world class soccer players.

Anyway, I had no urge to bet on this match, mostly because I do not know much about the players that are playing for their respective countries & also because they are not the traditional powerhouses of soccer, like England, Brazil, Argentina, etc. I wonder if they have a professional league in their own countries, or if they do, whether it is as competitive as those in the English Premier League, Seria A, German Bundesliga, etc.

The highlight for me was the deliberate handball by this African brother of ours. It was totally blatant & personally I think he deserves a straight red card, instead of the second yellow card which translates into a sending off. He should also be banned from all matches for 3 months. This really is my personal view, but if I had things done my way, Mexico should also be given a direct free kick with no goalkeeper because if he choses not to play by the rules, then Angola should be punished in the way that hurts them the most. A lost would have sent them out of the tornament but yet they can't go home because they still have to play their 3rd match of the First Round. Imagine the agony for the whole team, not just the bad African brother.

Ja neh!!!

Jean, I will always love you

Don't ask me how, don't ask me why, or when. I just do. Hmmm... Honestly, between you & me, I was overjoyed when I heard that she broke up wif Daniel Ong. Maybe I think too much liao. Okie okie, got to get out of my own world & come back to the real world, where she's a DJ, I'm a struggling student & we do not know each other personally. She doesn't know of my existence, I don't know what's her favourite or phone number. Sigh.

The real world sucks!!!
