Footie and me

Remember Euro 2004? The one that i upsetly watch England’s failure to Portugal, and Portugal to Greece? I kept on and on frustrated to the team that i root for. Am i not good enough in predicting? Or is soccer will be better without my prediction? Have i should now stop peeking who won and who loose, what is the score and who scored it? Is it worthy if i support the opposite team to win instead? in hoping that my (yes, mine) real team would win?

Oh, please. Of all reasons, football is a game which i entertain myself by watching a star, a well-known player doing hatricks, tackles, shots and goals. And i do enjoy yelling “goal” 4:00am in the morning as much as the time i grab, cringe and push a pillow to my face when the other team scores.

Forget about Ronaldinho’s nice penalty shot and his magical goal through the tightest space of four blue jerseys. My prediction was false, AGAIN! And tomorrow, yes, I’ll root for Juventus! Sigh!

Al-Fatihah

With tonnes of shock and regret, I am announcing the passing of a student, a student who was very bright, polite, humble and helpful to his friends. His death has jolted me of how mortal and fragile the life is, and it is very real and near to us all.

Al-fatihah; Nazirul Hafiy bin Nor Azmi, 1986-2005

Tak tahulah kenapa i still cant overcome this feeling, the shock and sadness. Teringat dialog terakhir dengan arwah;

Arwah :Cik boleh saya tengok carry mark saya?
Saya :Saya tak siap lagilah. Kenapa?
Arwah :Nak ready sebelum final.
Saya :Kalau awak, saya jamin boleh dapat 80% from the total mark.
Arwah :Ok ke cik?
Saya :Absolutely. Kalau nanti dalam 5 tahun lagi awak jumpa saya balik, saya gerenti awak dah jadi somebody dah. Dah jadi lebih baik dari saya mungkin.

But there is no 5 years for him, no 5 months, no 5 days either. "Kullu nafsin zaaikatul maut".

2nd March

Boleh tak kalau ada satu hari tu kita skip. Kalau kita tak nak 2nd March ada dalam kalender, macam 29 February. Kalau 2nd March tak ada, kira umur kita tak payah bertambah boleh tak? Boleh tak kalau kita tak payah ada birthday? Tak ada hari yg istimewa nak memperingati hari kelahiran kita, biar mak kita je yang ingat hari dia melahirkan kita, boleh tak? Boleh tak macam tu?

Unluckily, tak boleh. So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.. semalam!
