Derby Day

After getting myself battered for the past few days for particating in a futsal competition. Now is the time to focus on some more interesting matches. Tonight is the derby night in two of the most interesting leagues in the world, for there will be two derby matches playing in the BPL and one in the La Liga.

First up will be the Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park.


Both teams has not been in the best form lately. With Everton losing their last two consecutive matches, and Liverpool being kicked out of the prestigious Champions League. These two will only require no less than a win to ease the pressure of their managers, especially Rafa Benitez in particular.


Everton will look on to Saha to continue his goalscoring record, he has bagged eight goals so far in the league. While Liverpool will always depends on their influential captain Stevie G to get them the result they needed so badly.

Next up is a derby in another part of the country. Its the capital derby, the London derby between Arsenal and Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium.


Arsenal, slightly weakened by the lost of their striker Van Persie through injury, will try to dominate the midfield area. Spearheaded by their young captain Fransesc Fabregas, they will hope to stop the physically stronger Chelsea led by Frank Lampard with their one touch football.


Chelsea in the other hand, having saw their lead at the top of the table cut to only two points after an impressive performance by Manchester United last night. Will want to restore their five points deficit at the summit.

Last but not least, derby of all derbies, the El Clasico in the Spanish La Liga. A delicious matchup between two arch rivals, Barcelona and Real Madrid at the Nou Camp. Dubbed as the most expensive match in the history of modern football, mostly due to the price tag of all the footballers that both teams possessed.


Kaka, Xavi, Benzema and Ibrahimovic are only some of the few big names that will feature in this match. The two names that most people talk about though, are two of the most crucial characters in this match. their battle is as delicious as the match itself. The winner might even possibly crown Mr. Footballer of the Year. Its Lionel "Messiah" Messi and of course....the most expensive footballer in the world right now, Cristiano Ronaldo.


Perhaps the most exciting among the three. Expect a very highly entertaining and explosive match when these two teams meet. Better get some rest before the late kick off.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon


Everyone is talking about the sequel to the Twilight "New Moon" lately. Especially those ladies and vampire lovers. I myself is not a fan of Twilight, but I can't help but notice about this movie after all the hype surrounding it. My friends even tried to convince me to watch it even before the movie start to play in the cinema, like a month ago.

One thing I noticed is that, our pale looking Mr. Vampire Edward Cullen popularity, or Robert Pattinson to be exact....is shrinking. And the one person who threw him out of his throne is none other than his co-star Taylor Lautner, who played as a werewolf Jacob Black in the movie, a dead rival to the vampire clan.


They even fight for the same girl Bella Swan, portrayed by the lovely Kristen Stewert. Well, I'm not surprise that Mr. Werewolf is getting bigger than Mr. Vampire in term of popularity. After all, he's better looking. Girls crave for his body; while guys admire it.


I don't know about the outcome of the movie. But I guess most fans would love to see Bella end up with Jacob.....or..... they could get caught in two mind. Cos Edward was like so brilliant in the first installment. Then suddenly, Jacob evolved into a teen hearttrobe. Correct me if I'm wrong, cos I'm not going to watch it. I've watched the first Twilight, and its not my cup of tea.

Anyway, New Moon is now showing in cinemas near you. So, all you vampires and werewolves out there hurry up grab your ticket.

Darren Fletcher

"Oh he would run 500 miles,
And he would run 500 more,
Just to be that man who might just score,
To be that man Darren Fletcher...."


Few years back, he was just another fringe player at Manchester United. Warming up the bench most of the time, only got to come onto the pitch as a substitute or when there were injuries to first team players.

Now, he is regarded as one of the most important player in the team. With his incredible work rate and no nonsense tackle. He is the Red Devil's latest midfield general.

He might not be the most good looking player like Beckham or C. Ronaldo. But his never-say-die attitude on the pitch has won him many praises.



He has been in tremendous form this season, controlling the midfield for United whenever he played. He kept Lampard quiet during their last match against Chelsea. But was unfortunate to be given a foul against Ashley Cole that led to Terry's winner. But he quickly put that behind him. In their latest match last night against Everton, he produced another convincing performance that led United to a comfortable 3-0 victory at Old Trafford. Scoring a sweet volley from the edge of the penalty box in the process, probably his best goal for United so far.

Hot n' Cold

Its one of those time again when the weather is so unpredictable. Scorching hot like hell in the morning that you can feel the heat even when you're in a air-conditioned room, and like walking into a sauna room when you're out under the sun; then suddenly its pouring like crazy in the afternoon.


Its much more predictable at night, cos most of the time its raining. It makes your body hard to cope with all the sudden changes of the climate. And this is the best time for one to fall ill.


So in this extreme time, it require extreme measure. My advice are....drink more water, eat your vitamins, and rest more.

Arabian Night


Went to an annual party/dinner at Imperial Hotel Grand Ballroom last Friday night that was organized by TLD and Love Yoga Fitness Dance Studio. No, I did not learn any sort of dance lesson with the particular dance studio. Just happened to be there because I got free ticket from my boss. Each ticket worth RM50 ohh.....don't play play.


Since it was organized by a dance studio, so obviously there was a lot of dance acts in da house. And the theme for the night - "Arabian Night". You can see lots of people, especially the members of the dance studio all gearing up in their middle eastern outfit.


First performance was belly dance by a group of sexy yet not so Arabian lookalike ladies. The line up was made up of the instructors of the dance studio I suppose, because there was another belly dancing that was performed by another group of...also sexy, but a little bit aging group of hot mamas. You can tell the difference by the shape of their bodies, if not the quality of the dance =P


There was even dance performance by children, too. And of course, by a group of hot hunk that seems to be the crowd favorite since majority of the guests are ladies. So, I got to hear all the annoying screaming by the girls when these so-called hot hunks start to move their bodies. But i did get my fair share of eye-feasting moment, too.


Then there was this best outfit competition for the guests. There were about 40 tables that night, and each table was to choose someone with the best outfit from their table to represent them. In the end, the winner was a super hot pregnant mum with tattoos on her belly. Didn't manage to catch her picture, though.


Next up, a tribute performances to the "King of Pop" the late Michael Jackson. The "Smooth Criminal" performed by a group of kiddos. And the "Thriller" performed by a group of much taller and bigger kiddos.


Jabbawockeez in da house???? Nah, not even close.


Other performances from that night that I'm not gonna elaborate more on. I won't mention about the food, too. It was just typical foods you usually get at a wedding dinner. Okay, I'm running out of word and It's getting late. Enjoy the post....good nite~~
