It was close to 12 o'clock. I was playing FIFA 12 when suddenly I heard a shaking noise from inside my aquarium. It was Tony! He was flipping out! He was helplessly swimming sideways, like he was unable to maintain his balance. He kept on flicking the plastic walls of the aquarium and the pebbles. I was afraid because I saw one thing in his eyes - death. I was in a panic so the first thing that came to mind was to get him out of there and into a white container supposedly for fishing baits we used long time ago. I scooped him out of there and put him in a fresh tapwater atmosphere. He was still trying to maintain his balance. I looked on - without a thought of saving his life and more to witnessing his endless suffering. It seemed like he was possessed or something. I quickly opened up my mini guide book on fish health and tried to look up what was the problem. He was breathing rapidly too! Must be a gill infection or something, but a few days before this happened, he was swimming healthily. Maybe it's the new solution I put in. He was also having a skin decay on the left side of his body.
Before he stopped his breathing, he was upside down and a few seconds later, he was deceased. My first ever fish this year and this tragic accident happens. I shouldn't have poured in the new solution. He could've still survived. Now, all there's left in my tank are my two Yellow Cichlids and a sucker fish. I guess I've to take it easy on these few and see how it goes with careful feeding and make sure the water quality isn't as bad as it's going to look. :'(
It was very sad to see him die like that. What more to say when I flushed him down the toilet. He didn't deserve to die like that. He deserved a proper burial - like among the plants on my balcony. He was worth $12. He was also a marvelous type of fish I've ever seen with his primarily metallic blue colour. YOU WILL BE MISSED, TONY!

Happy birthday, Figgi bua!
CH3LSEA - AR5ENAL
Not quite happy about Chelsea's performance and the result last night. We had the chance to trail Manchester United by 1 point again! Torres wasn't seen converting chances, but Sturridge did a great job! We could've won the game. The scoreline was 3 - 5 and the worse part is that we lost at Home. The last two goals blasted by Arsenal's RvP with serious lack of defense.
"Mata should have been man of the match. He assisted the first goal and scored the third. Terry despite scoring the second had an awful game at the back as he was too concerned with pushing forward which led to counter attacks that we couldn't deal with. That exposed us and led to 3/4 of Arsenal's goals." ~David Westcough on Facebook.
The first mistake was Terry tripping allowing RvP to sprint through with the ball and made it past Cech. The second was poor marking by Bosingwa and Cech only had one arm to reach out to the fast and strong ball and failed to keep it out. Well, nevertheless Mata was incredible. Ashley Cole too! No doubt that he's the best left-back in Chelsea! Win or lose, up the Blues!
Congratulations to Manchester United for a 0 - 1 Away win against Everton. And also to Liverpool who is currently leading 2 - 0 against West Brom. Next gameweek awaits!

New Twitter Home page!
Twitter changed its Home page again. Supposedly the Favourite button, the Retweet button and the Reply button are below people's tweets. (NO WARNING KAH?!) But at least it looks (kind of) neat now!

Too good to be true.
Chelsea lost against QPR tonight with an unbelivably 9 men down on the pitch. J. Bosingwa was the first to see a red card and a few minutes after, D. Drogba too. I didn't see the match though, but I'm glad I didn't. If I did, I would be out of my mind! Chelsea didn't deserve to lose. Although with 9 men, Chelsea still stood strong and held the scoreline. QPR just got lucky with a penalty slotted home by Helgusson in the 11th minute. Damn. Well, we could've gotten second place in the premier league table, but all's well that ends well.
Manchester United had a rough day too! They lost against Manchester City (at home) with a scoreline of 1 - 6 with two goals from E. Dzeko and one from D. Silva in the final minutes of stoppages. Smiling faces for Arsenal and Tottenham fans though. Both teams won against their opponents. Well, the next gameweek awaits!

RIP Baljeet
This is really a shocking news. I stumbled upon my friend's (Calvin Chong) status on Facebook saying that an old friend of his who moved to Canada has, unfortunately, died in a car collision with a semi-truck. I don't believe if this is true, but it's in the news. Death is not to be toyed around with. Read more here:

Heartless.
Some people nowadays don't have hearts to mind people's businesses. Seriously though. I don't understand why they would take something which is apparently not theirs. Why? Are you not happy with the way life is treating you? So you just stick your nose in and start making a (big) mess? Making things worse? No. You are making a fool out of yourself. Things might turn out happy and peaceful for you in the beginning, but - someway and someday - you'll get what's coming to you.

We will all float on okay.
I am currently with Fikri, Fathul, Afiq and Amin in Gadong. First, Afiq had his car washed. We left it be and headed to The Mall. We had lunch at West Street Cafe. I didn't eat thought. Only had a Coke Float. It's been a while since I last had one. After that, I decided to shop for a jacket. I even bought one actually - a brown jacket. After a 30% discount, I only had to pay $34. There was this one dark blue jacket which cost at a fixed price of $23 after a 50% discount, but I already have that colour.
After buying my jacket, they went to fetch their car at the car wash while me and Amin headed to ZaZa Saloon. He looks gayer than ever now! :D Now we're sending him home and continue our cruise. Hopefully I'll update more later. Before I forget:
