"Controversial refs Poll and Ivanov dropped" & "Poll retires from international refereeing" could be among the headlines that is i should say....hot topic among football fans around the world up to the Quarter-Final Stage of the FIFA World Cup..Many have been said about these referees making mistakes and among them...examples from the two refs mentioned earlier...the decision they made are wat we call a mistake in the eye of every football fans and footballers..Poll had issued 3 Yellow cards before sending of a Croatian player in the 2-2 clash over Australia...The latter had broke the World Cup Record by issuing 16 Yellow Cards and 4 Red Cards in a single match...and i think one other ref who also deserved to be sent home( i think he have been sent home) is MEDINA CANTALEJO Luis who awarded a never-should-be penalty kick to Italians in the last 12 sec of Injury time...Grasso from Italy had been seen as being deliberate in running in the path of already-on-the-ground Neill from Australia....i guess if any other referees had seen that..Grasso would have been awarded the Yellow card for simulation...

Whatever it is..the Quarter-Final stage promises great matches..it kicks off tonight with

Germany vs Argentina(9pm Singapore Time Friday)

followed by

Italy vs Ukraine(3am Singapore Time Sat)

England vs Portugal (9pmSingapore Time Sat)

Brazil vs France(3am Singapore Time Sun)

See!! Great matches aren't they?? well, got to run do up some projs....well, update on something about my proj someother time...Anyways, jsut for a start, i wasted 6 bloody hrs of my life until headache struck me...to do a proj..more details coming up...stay tune dudes....

2 weeks is gone just like that...it did not feel like a break to me...cause i dunno what i had been doing...maybe because of the World Cup that is around that gave me the late night sleeps...or maybe its the work at the Rowing Centre...whatever it is i still enjoyed myself yesterday....went to SENTOSA with My mom, My 3rd Bro, Raihan, My 1st Bro Ram, Kak Nina who is my bro's friend from Phillipines and both my nephews...Afiq and Danial...went to Tanjung Beach for a swim...it was great despite only having that number of people around..Now my body is hurting like hell, because of sunburn..and yes for the 1st time this year i get sunburn....the last was when i went to Sentosa also with my fellow classmates...late last year...or i think better known as Sentosa Outing 2005...hehehe...Cool name huh? cause we also had Sentosa Outing 2006 where the no. of people who turned up was magnifico...anyways lets cut the talking down, i shall leave u guys with some of the pictures..

And i think i shall get a video of my niece up soon....but for now..i want to rest tonight watching Germany vs Sweden and tmr i have a soccer game...so ciao...

Today woke up 7.30am...took my handphone and read a msg..my soccer game in the morning was cancelled but they had a back-up match planned..so in the end...still played 2 soccer games one in the morning and the other in the evening..

The game in the morning was played at Ang Mo Kio field with my own team...free and open to public...we won that game 6-2....had to concede a penalty...all started off from my mistake...a freekick was taken and the shot was directed to me...i had wanted to punch the ball over the post....but the punch was a weak one as i was also tackled in the process...and then the ball bounced off the post....and landed right infront of the goal mouth...the striker pounced on the free ball..and my defender cleared the ball off the line...BUT..with his hands...so a penalty kick was awarded...i had guess the right side of the post where the ball will be kicked..but the ground was too slippery and the ball skidded off the surface and into the net....watever it is...we still played well...considering we only had 10 players..

The game in the afternoon played with my 1st bro's team...usual sunday afternoon team...the game was disrupted at one point when the referee did not give a freekick when our defender was kicked from behind.....our goalkeeper refused to play the ball and kept shouting at the ref...things got worst when one of our players blocked one of the opponent while he was jumping for the ball....sending the opponent to the ground...he stood up and then went over to confront our player...it then turned into a short pushing and shoving of players. and our player was given the red card....however, the real cause of the conflict between the teams is the referee.... he was the worst referee we had ever had for a match...i said something infront of him..and he turned and looked at me...i said to my goalkeeper "he's worst then SPIDER(one of the refs) lah!!" almost everyone noes how inconsistent spider is in giving fouls....then i started laughing..we won the game 3-1 at the end of the day...

came home with tired legs....went over to Abg Ram's house...it is Danial's (my 1st nephew) birthday...watched the Japan Croatia match and had KFC which my mom bought on the way to his house....so sedap the hot drumlets...

Came home after the match and now i fell too tired to do my Infotainment Application Development Proj..which was due to be submitted via email to Mr Edmund Teo by Today..maybe tmr i will do and will tomorrow and submit to him...now i want to sleep ciao..

Finally, my mom gets a granddaughter of her own..and me, a niece....i have two nephews and i love them very2 much...

Anyways, Congratulations!! to Abg Izan and Kak Diah for getting a baby girl..

Went to Rowing Centre again today to help out...today, 4 of us, my dad,Cik Aziz,my cousin, Syafiq who is by the way is studying in NYP too...fixed up one of the catamarans that is going to be used for the 12th Asian Junior Rowing Championship..

i'll be test-driving this thing on the 1st of July at BEDOK RESERVOIR

oh yes!! By the way here is the logo i designed for the event...

by the way the text is 'ASIAN JUNIOR ROWING CHAMPIONSHIP'...

I think i am not going to predict anymore scores...but...i have done some calculations and i predict that Argentina and Germany will go thru to the Finals and meet each other...and thats it...nothing else..maybe not here but on MSN i will predict the scores...

Damn..its already Wednesday in the 1st week of break....fast ain't it?? Time to wake up alot of things to do....but still the World Cup Fever is too strong for me to brush aside...oh yes...below are the pictures to us doing work at the Rowing Centre...

The Metal Frames we used to make the pontoons

Half of the Pontoon done and
allowed to drift to the side of the Reservoir

Raihan and Dev tightening the screw and nuts

us working together to put
the floatation under the metal bar

Dev and I holding resisting the current
which is pushing the pontoon away

Rahmat and Raihan Joining one half of
the pontoon with the other on water

Kumar looking on as we finish the last part of the pontoon

We ended our day soon after we found these on one of the pieces of wood we had to carry up from the carpark to the our old pontoon:(viewer discretion advised)

EEWWWW!!!! hahahaha

Yesterday's WORLD CUP ties were disappointing..except for
the Korea vs Togo Match..Korea was solid as a team right from the start of the second half...Togolese solid-ness began to thin as they see the Koreans going hard on them...

France vs Switzerland game was disappointing..i slept a few times during the game...it ended 0-0...Brazil on the other hand was unexpectedly weak yesterdat having only scored only 1 goal to pick up the 3 points from Croatia...many would have expected them to win by at least scoring 3 goals...

Today's Predictions:

Spain vs Ukraine
a draw game 1-1
------------------------------------

Tunisia vs Saudi Arabia
Tunisia to win 3-0
------------------------------------

Germany vs Polan
Germans to win 3-1

Well, today had another day out under the sun...but this time we got some pictures taken...the wind was crazy man...but all in all we did a great job...finishing the other half of the pontoon by half the time....but...wah so many buts...hehehe....i stil feel like a lobster...

Yesterday i was wrong 2/3 but wat the hell..i still got the 1 game winner right plus score...hmm..not bad....hahah....but..hee but again...Australia really did show that they can play in the world cup...Tim Cahill was superb and so was John Aloisi...he got pass 3 defenders before slipping the ball low into the net...

Well, well..today's predictions:

Korea vs Togo

I'd say Korea to win 1-0

--------------------------------

France vs Switzerland

France to win 3-2

--------------------------------

Brazil vs Croatia

Brazil to win 3-1

--------------------------------

Rumours have been going round that Brazil are not winners when they are in Europe..well to be exact its a fact....will they make a diffenrent story this time round....we shall seeeeee!!!

Damn i feel like a lobster now....was under the sun for like hmm...10 am till 4pm..hmm..how long is that? haha...6 hrs...fuhh..crazy..helped out with the preparations for the 12th Asian Junior Rowing Championships....fixed the Start pontoons...if i have time i shall take some pictures tmr....Coach Nic as usual was IRRITATING...if i can recall clearly wat happened a week back...this time to my 3rd Bro...who was furious on the fact that coach Nic wun stop trying to be the guy with the best ideas...Haiz, it could not be long before he leave us....unless he proves his knowledge at his main job scope...which is to train the National team...

Yesterday i got Portugal's score right....and winners for the other 2 games right..so getting better uh?? going straight to the point i want to make my predictions for today

Japan vs Socceroos(Aussies)

Japan to win 2-1

--------------------------

USA vs Czech Republic

1-1 draw

--------------------------

Italy vs Ghana

hmm..Italy 2-0

--------------------------

Why?? because Singapore's one and only Referee in this years World Cup shows why he makes a good one in the International Stage...he made a good decision on giving a 'Red Card' : (report below):

"Avery John became the first player to be sent off in the finals after he received a second yellow a minute into the second period for a two-footed challenge on the lively Wilhelmsson."

To other News: Today's Match Predictions

Serbia & MonteNegro vs Netherlands

Netherland to win 2-1

-----------------------------------

Mexico vs Iran

Mexico to win 4-0

----------------------------------

Angola vs Portugal

Portugal to win 1-0

----------------------------------

okok i got the winners for yesterday's match predictions right except for scores...so today i hope it maintains or better..hahaha then can become Soccer Master Predictors

Amin...received a call from Azuan saying that our Malay Teacher ,

Cikgu Syed, passed away yesterday evening...A good teacher who disciplines his students in an easy going way...Likes to tell stories in class, a good one with morale that is...One will always enjoy being in his classes..reasons for his departure is still not known,i was never told by any of my friends...but it could be of his long term sickness i guess...Whatever it is, my prayers will always go to him and

" Cikgu, Thanks for ur guidance u have given to me and my fellow classmates during our years at Damai Seconday School"

Only 2 matches but 8 goals had been produced...very rare occasions where the opening match is a thriller...

Phillip Lahm's and Frings goals were magnificient....how they manage to kick that way...i also dunno....but the main issue is...Both Costa Rica's goals looked like an offside to me...anyways...from my view they might be but from the linesman's view..i may be wrong...

2nd match was total upset...i had expected Poland to win by at least a goal or 2..instead they went down 2-0 against Ecuador..

Tonights match predictions:

England vs Paraguay

England to win 3-2

----------------------------

Sweden vs Trinidad & Tobago

This game is a 0-0 draw

---------------------------

Argentina vs Ivory Coast

Argentina to win 2-0

--------------------------ok time to go-----------------------

CIAO!! hopefully today better luck on my predictions

Yeay!! its finally here and its like 1 hr 15 mins away from the kick off of the 2006 FIFA WORLD CUP GERMANY...Time every man in the world...ok wait..let me rephrase...almost all men is waiting for...wun talk much...todays matches

Germany vs CostaRica,Germans to win 2-1

Poland vs Ecuador, Poland to win 1-0

lets see if my predictions are right....

to all my friends...the long awaited break is here...so outing anyone??? I have got some suggestions...Bowling + Karaoke in one day...well its not my suggestion on the whole...its Joel's too....so give me ur shout outs....for now i want to watch the opening ceremony for world cup..ciao

Dark sky and cold wind on what they call a "Satanic Day" are nothing to me...its just a superstition that many have been influenced by the movie "The Omen"..and all that happens today are natural and nothing got to do with what many had claimed to be...so what if it rains heavily today, so what if it suddenly snows today...its just to me the power of ALLAH...((some would say the power of GOD)..that makes this happen..but to me its got nothing to do with the 'Triple 6'..reflect on this..

Today had a relatively short day...went for 3 hrs lab today and thats it...drove my bro's car cause i was forced to leave house at 8.30am all because my wallet had decided to go for a swim in the washing machine while i look for it else where...reached school 9.15am...and did the 3d modelling...submission of ICA is this friday...damn alot to do...still ahve the storyboard to draw...Your story has got originality..thats wat Mr Khoo,Godfrey said...well, thats just me..hmm.hmm..hahah....if its not original, its not from Razemin...haha...

Gave Ryan,Mad,Baocheng and Alex a lift to Bishan before heading home..filled up the petrol at SPC along Thompson Road...the girl who pumped petrol into my car pretty lah..wonder why she do this job..like dun suit her..hahaha

ok lah..want to continue with my 3d modelling...ciao..

Went rowing this morning...had to go down on the quads with my trainees even with my legs still hurt..but its ok cause i get paid anyway...haha argued with Coach Nic...about the things we were supposed to prepare for the Asian Juniors Rowing Championship..argh dun wan to talk about it anymore...but i feel bad actually...did not think i would be disrespectful to him..

left the centre at 2 with Kumar and my 4th bro....claiming i had to meet up with frens to do some project..but then the actual fact is that i want to go home and rest....had a quick lunch at Clementi Central McDonald's...haha bought the wrong stuff twice...firstly my bro had bought 2 filet-o-fish burgers which caused 3.20 each..after he had paid for them he remembered that the McChicken Burger was selling at 2 dollars each...sat outside and ate it...then we felt that we haven had enough...so i went in to buy 2 McChicken Burgers and a medium coke...came out did some calculations with my bro and once again...bought the wrong thing...if i had bought a McChicken meal and one additional McChicken Burger...it would have been much better and it comes with fries at the same price...

stopped by City Hall after that..helped my bro to transact a deal...he sold a webcam at for 10 bucks while he himself went to bugis for another transaction selling off a network switch...met him after that and took a bus home...along the way an american guy boarded the bus and sat next to us at the back row of the bus...we were eating Potato Chips at that time...and i was holding it..then i elbowed my bro to have some more...then from the corner of my eye, the american guy elbowing him too...i look at him and he was smiling and pointing to the packet of chips i was holding....i offered him some and he took almost immediately...haha he said.." HMM Nice!! thank u.."...haha weird...haha..

in the evening went to Changi Beach with my 2nd bro, his wife, my nephew and my mom...sat at a stop where the planes directly fly past above our head as it is landing at Changi Airport...Afiq was cute...he was playing with his bicycle and each time a plane comes..he would run as fast as he could to his mom and hide...after the loud noise from the plane dissappears he would go" ahah!! anjat!!"(shocked) hahaha...while putting his hand over his chest.....saw a man who was fishing battle a fish for a good 10 mins...
finally out came a STINGRAY...relatively big one....the size of a 15 inch laptop...
he said...finally after an hour...his first catch..a good one that is..

soon the clouds gathered over our heads and we decided to leave for home...

Phew..after a long week finally the weekend...my weekend started differently this week....had a great day out on Orchard Road on Friday evening...with Ryan, Weifang and Joel..went straight to Town after school with Ryan as Weifang had class till 4 pm and Joel had initially planned a tuition session...

Went to Marina first where Ryan dropped the store key at his workplace then back to Orchard Road..took a rest at PastaMania where Ryan had his lunch of Creamy Chicken something...i dunno wats it called....

The plan for the day was to accompany Ryan for his shopping at Tangs...he had 200 bucks worth of vouchers...thats alot man...haha walked around in Tangs looking for wat Ryan is looking..wait a minute..actually he did not have anything particular in mind..Weifang came soon and continued walking around...Ryan finally bought a T-shirt from FCUK..read it properly please...its FCUK...haha..Joel came not long later he bought one shirt form same shop...then went to Lucky Plaza for Dinner...Had a 4 dollars Seafood Fried Rice which i think i can cook it myself...hahaha..

Next stop was heeren , wanted to say Hi to James at Lemon Grass but then..the shop was too packed and after 5 mins we still dun see him around..decided to continue walk around before walking back to Wisma...TopMan and TopShop...i decided to wait outside the shop cause my legs are shouting...hahah...but i think its a good thing...dun want to pamper my legs...if its hurt i want to counter the pain by making it work...anyways..sat outside the shop and listened to Red Indian song..played by 3 people in Red indian costumes...mind u the songs are, to be honest quite nice...quite relaxing...anyway, left for home at 1030 pm the train was as usual packed with people...reached home at 11.15 pm and watched ther last part of the movie 'Gol dan Gincu'..its about a girl changing her lifestyle, being glamourous and stuff to suit her boyfriend's, which is playing soccer...retired for the day not long after....

Can not wait...cannot wait...cannot wait to see Ronaldinho,Ronaldo,Robinho and Julio Baptista playing as a team...it would be great football...like a candy to the eyes...i'd say that they will lead the team to create history as the first team to win back-to-back title.....

but then..there is still te English boys that cannot be forgotten...Lampard,Joe Cole, Crouch, Ashley Cole, John Terry, and not forgetting the newest and youngest in the list, Theo Walcott...17 years old and playing in England National Team in the World Cup..is like a treasure man...Rooney had to miss the first part of the Campaign due to injury's sustained at Stamford Bridge in Manchester United's last premiership game against the Blues, CHELSEA which incidently became the champions yet again for the second year running...anyways.,..hope that Rooney gets well as fast as possible and get back to the 1st team list...My verdict for this year's world cup is ENGLAND vs Brazil in the Finals...or at least they will meet once in the semis or quarters...

People below are 2 videos which i found on youtube.com and feel that its cool and good...so enjoy!!

Wondering wat the scores up there were for?? Well, they we my scores for my NAPFA test which i took yesterday without any preparations or wat ever that has the same meaning...anyways...here are my scores :

VERDICT: pathethic

However i am still happy that i managed to still get 6 points from there...and i still maintain my below 10.5sec shuttle run....if not for the muscle strain i had to my right thigh..i would have certainly been aware of how fast or slow i am in my 2.4km run currently..but it had forced me to withdraw from the run after 2 rounds....sit-ups were not encouraging either... 32 is not really me..btw...i think with some training it would not be difficult for me to pass..if not for now at least when i get to NS...will check out when the last date to retake the test is...i heard that i can re-take it next semester....btw CONGRATULATIONS to my dear fren zA for getting a BRONZE award in NAPFA..although not the color u had wanted..at least its better than nothing right??

Ryan's Birthday party last Sunday was a "blast" if there isn't any other word to describe it...well at least to him...could see that he is truely happy and enjoyed the nite...btw i want the pictures from ryan..will get it from him soon... held at the YWCA FortCanning Lodge, 65 expected guess, 7 tables, banquet style settings.....free-flow of drinks, relatively great spread of food, amplifiers for music...does that tell how good the celebration is?? well figure it out urselfs....

going to get some treatment on the muscle strain..upload some of the pictures later....ciao...
