7 of us (ME, KT, Joanna, Kelvin, ZJ, Xiong and James) went over to JB last Saturday… long time nv see Boon liao, so of course is there to see him lah.. LoL, but before meeting them in the afternoon, I went gym at 10am first… hardcore hor!!!

What we did over in JB is what we can do here, but at a half price rate… Hehe… Watched a movie, Hitman… I can only say the lead actor is super cool and handsome (and dangerous) looking, together with the barcode tattoo on his clean shaven head… highly recommended to watch, for the many actions…

Then went for dinner at a (smelly) alley but it is real nice food, especially the fried rice… LoL, but healthy conscious people are not recommended to see how the boss cooked it and it is also super high in Cholestrol… It comes with prawns (big unshelled prawns), sotong bits and lots of eggs…

Till now still drooling over the fried rice, very delicious leh… and as usual Xiong perspire like a dripping tap due to the spicy stuffs again, we also fed him with LOTS of food, his plate is nv empty till all the food are finished.

Then we went to The Zon, think it is a hotel / service apartments type of place, with shopping centre below and a few pubs / clubs surrounding it… There are some duty free shops there, so there is even a customs checkpoint there, and funny thing is ZJ cannot understand that it is not immigration checkpoint but customs checkpoint…

The difference to my understanding is Immigration is entering or leaving a country whereas customs is checking on things that you can / cannot bring into / out of a country… so ZJ keep misunderstanding that she can go back Singapore through the Customs Checkpoint… Hehe

We played poker cards at a pub for quite sometime, because while we were there, Liverpool was in the midst of a game, and we even finished the Man Utd match (hehe, happy that Man Utd lose…)

We were playing Dai Dee (Big 2)… I only lose 1 time and it was the last game of the day anyway… so got punished to drink 1 glass of beer lor and those who know understand that I hate BEER!!! Awful taste…

Then it is time for home… there is no time for shopping leh, next time shall go in with KT and Joanna and maybe 2 more parties then we go shopping like siao!!! Haha…

--------

Hmmm, so fast next week going to chalet… so it means next weekend I can’t go gym… this week only weekend can, cos Joey is having her last 2 papers… Haha…but next week I can go gym on weekdays, provided no OTs also…

Finally after so long, I watched The Devil Wears Prada, yesterday… Meaningful show…and of course their clothes are so nice, but not practical over here, unless you install air-con inside the jacket… Haha… maybe next I shall watch Transformers if I have the time…

LOSE LIAO!!!!

Although results were 2:3 but sad lah... CAN THEY PLEASE SACKED MCCLAREN!!!

Only consolation is; Handsome daddy scored a penalty... during the 56th Min

Lampard (England) scores from the penalty spot.
Frank Lampard gives England hope, converting from the penalty spot after Josip Šimunić had pulled back substitute Jermain Defoe.

But no use lah, in the end also out of the the qualifiers... guess no chance to see him play in International games liao... cos the next world cup, he's too old liao...

Frank Lampard believes he is in some of the best form of his career as he called on England to make the most of their Euro 2008 lifeline.



The Chelsea midfielder has endured a difficult few months and had a spell when he was target for disgruntled England fans.

Lampard lost his place through injury and the rising form of Gareth Barry for the four autumn qualifiers with Russia, Israel and Estonia.

But Lampard earned a recall to the side for the friendly international with Austria in Vienna last Friday and believes Steve McClaren's assessment that he is on top of his game again is justified.

Lampard said: 'I hear the manager has said I am in some of the best form of my career - and I would agree with that. I feel on top of my game.

'In the period between the England game with Russia and the one in Austria, over the last four or five weeks, I have felt very strong.

'Maybe what has contributed is that I came back very fresh from my time off because of injury.

'I had several frustrating weeks on the sidelines and came back when I was fit and raring to go. I feel fresh and sharp because of that.'

When Lampard was injured, McClaren employed Gareth Barry alongside Steven Gerrard to great effect and Lampard did not win his place back immediately.

BEST PLAYER

But in Vienna, however, he was probably McClaren's best player.

'It was difficult for me being on the outside for England,' Lampard said.

'It is not that tough because you know that in your career you will have some slight ups and downs, but the strong man comes through and keeps doing what he does.

'Since the last England game, my form for Chelsea has been as good as it's ever been, and I am hopeful of playing on Wednesday.

'We all want to be on top of our game and we all want everything to be going well but it is not the way life is.

'I have spoken to many players who have been as successful as me and more successful than me who have had awkward times in their careers. The strong ones come through.'

McClaren is not the only one who believes Lampard is back at his best.

Chelsea boss Avram Grant also believes Lampard's return from a thigh injury has been instrumental in the Blues excellent recent form.

Grant has led Chelsea to seven successive victories since a goalless draw in his first home match, against Fulham in September, with Lampard playing a pivotal role and scoring four goals in the past two matches.

'Frank is a strong character, as everyone knows,' Grant said.

'I know you may say I'm not objective, but I am objective. I was a national coach and I'm sure that if Frank and John Terry played in the last (England) game against Russia the result would have been different.'

Meanwhile, Lampard is also confident England's knack of performing at their best when the stakes are highest will ensure there are no slip-ups agaiinst Croatia tomorrow.

McClaren's side now need only to avoid defeat against Croatia to book their place in Euro 2008.

Lampard said: 'Now things are back into our hands in terms of qualifying there is a fantastic feeling in the squad.

'Since I've been involved in the squad when there's been a big game on which qualification hinges, like in Turkey a few years ago, we've managed to get the right result.

'We've performed better in the bigger games, especially the ones to qualify for major championships and we can do it again against Croatia.

'We know the atmosphere on Wednesday will be frightening,' he said. 'That will work in our favour, that will lift the lads.

'We can beat Croatia. We know we have got the ability in the team to do it.

'If we do go through, it would be a tremendous lift after everything we have been through; after all the criticism that has been thrown at the players and the manager.

'If we can come through that, then we can go to the championships with real confidence.'

From next Monday (19 November 2007), taxi drivers who are caught touting, overcharging or refusing to pick up passengers will be hit where it hurts most - their pockets.

They will be slapped with stiffer penalties, including higher fines and demerit points, immediate suspensions, as well as revocation of licences for certain repeat offences, announced the Land Transport Authority on Monday.

Offences such as touting and refusing to pick up passengers, which only resulted in a fine and demerit points previously, now come with immediate suspensions ranging from two to four weeks.

If a cabby is caught touting and overcharging less than $20 twice in 24 months, his licence will be revoked. In the case of overcharging by $20 or more, the offender's licence will be revoked immediately.


Dear cabbies, life is getting harder... but it doesn't harm to make a 'honest' living... If you think i'm gloating, dun start bombarding me... My dad's a cabby too... LoL

Not one of the best Monday that I could have… it could have been better…

Yesterday was watching Chelsea against Everton… till 70 minutes it was still a goal-less match then Chelsea Drogba decided to perform after so many attempts… happily was leading the 1 goal lead then my sister came home, asked what’s the score, and she says DRAW!!!

Then Everton Cahill score a goal at the 89minute… OMG!!! Imagine my anguish…

SianED lor… how could this happened… and I dun blame Cudicini cos his view was block by Chelsea Belletti and that Belletti did not managed to clear the ball away from Cahill and the box area… so angry lor… Chelsea needs Terry and Carvalho partnership…

My handsome daddy nearly scored many times lor… but I guess luck is not at Chelsea side… Everton playing style changed from the last season, this time I see them play more midfield and their defence reacts very fast…

Nvm lah, at least keep a clean sheet at home ground… now must keep winning to get back the Title…

A sudden strong urge to go Backpacking...

A sudden crave to go Travelling...

A sudden thinking of leaving everything behind and go all out to see and learn...

Alas, it could only be a sudden urge, a sudden crave and a sudden thinking...

Well had a very busy weekend… Went KTV with Dor on Friday night… Long time since we went K-ster… Sang from 10pm till 2am then btw the time reach home and sleep, it is already 3am, so I was awake for around 21 hours le…
