For people who had watched or read about the big match on Sat, you will know what I am going to talk about. To me, Spurs did the right thing. In football, you play to the whistle. Michael Carrick released the ball because he saw the ref waving play on. Mr Wanker can moan all he wants but the truth was Spurs was robbed of a victory. Yes. We were robbed by the brilliance of Henry whom I believe will not be wearing that Sickening red shirt next season. The lead up to the goal was also a disputable one as Salteri was clearly being pulled back. I had no argument with the goal as it was pure class. That was the difference between Defoe and Henry. At least we can console ourselves that Defoe is still young and definitely will be staying at The Lane for years to come. No one will say that about Henry.
It is strange that Mr Wanker only have eyes for the opposition. I can't recall how many times he had said this: “I didn't see it". Ranging from wild tackles to blatant dive, he would just be able to miss it. I respect this man for what he had done. Such as unearthing gems like Henry (I do rate him though I hate him), Fabregas (I can't believe that he is only 18 and it hurt me deeply that he will be wearing that sickening red for years to come) and Anelka but he got to learn how to lose. Spurs had shown that they are definitely the better team for this season. The table doesn’t lie. Two more wins and we will qualify for The Champions League. Irrespective of what those scums do in the EPL. My only worry is that they might end up winning The Champions League. This will be the definite kick in the teeth for Spurs. I am hoping that Villareal will kill them off. If not, I am sure that my beloved Barcelona will do the job. Keeping my fingers crossed that they will not be knock out by Milan. Though I do like them too, but their defence is getting too old for teams with pace like Barcelona. If they somehow manage to kick Barcelona out of it, Arsenal may just lift The Champions League in May. God. Let it be an all Spanish Final.
All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers.

I should be still in bed at this hour but here I am blogging away at my office. It is a nice Sunday afternoon and there are many better things such as sleeping, reading or simply lazing at my home that I would have chosen instead of this. I had been assigned as a foreman by my boss today. Yes. I had people under me now. Around 6 or is it 7 indians? Well, one good thing about being a foreman is that you don't need to do anything except just ensure that they are doing what is expected. The bad thing is when things go wrong (hopefully it won't), you will be the first in line to take the volley of criticism and fire from your boss. Can't believe that I am a foreman at the age of 26. I am really becoming more and more uncley. (Is there a word like this anyway?)
Well, update updates. Been close to a month since I updated my blog. Well, time seems to be moving at a very fast pace in my life now.I am getting busier and busier with less time to spend on myself. My time is being taken up by work, sleep (a major part of my free time), friends (Sorry that I am spending less and less time with u guys. Esp to Kenn. I would go down to LGM as soon as possible) and Championship Manager 6. Haha. Yes, I do have some spare time to play it. Wanted to take a breather this week to catch up on my life to see where I can improve in. Thought that this long weekend would be a good time. The truth can't be any further than that. I spent Fri sleeping as I was having gastric and flu. Sat was spent working(what else can I do?) and now Sun working again.
The good thing is that I am really learning a lot from this company now. Skills that will enrich my life. This I am very sure of. Well, glory don't come without blood and sweats. I am setting myself a personal goal of being able to stand on my own two feet in my company before end of the year. I am now still reliant on my colleagues as there are really too many things that I don't know. Try as I may but those with the most knowledge are simply too busy to teach me. People like Stanley and Kolo. I really wish to be at a level similar to them so that I can lessen their workload and most importantly, increase my paycheck.
Election is coming! I am very excited about this as this might be the first time that I can vote. Watched the Dialogue with MM Lee. He is simply amazing. I believed that S'poreans really owe a huge debt to him. I was quite appalled with the way some of the reporters were speaking to him. They are all well educated beings and yet they can come across as being disrespectful and arrogant. Some of their tone were like questioning a suspect who is being accused of doing something wrong. I might disagree with some of the ruling party policies but I know when to give respect when it is due. Seeing that most of our neighbours are problems like political turmoil(Thailand and Philipines), poverty problems(Laos, Vietnam etc) or terrorism(Indonesia) I am really glad to be born in S'pore. S'poreans should also be glad that we had MM Lee to lead us through troubled times.
I am not sure who I will be voting for as I believed that we should always listen with an open mind to see what the opposition can do for us. I do believe that we need to have checks for the goverment but if this means voting for some idiots (people like Dr Chee of SDP come to mind), I would rather place my faith with someone more capable like my current MP. For those who think that I don't know who my current MP is, he is Mr Raymond Lim, Second Minister for Finance and Minister in PM Office. Voting is scared so make sure you guys vote and think carefully over it. I quote MM Lee " Politics is the science or art of governing a country. Making sure that there are jobs and home for the people. Voting is a decision of live and death."
