Hi! 1 week has gone by and recently, Aqel (27th May) and Aziz (23rd May) just had their 20th birthdays! Happy belated birthday to you guys! Hope you enjoyed your days with friends and surprises! Aziz spent his birthday at my place playing Killzone 3 together. Guess what? We finished the game in less than 2 days! On Trooper difficulty though, but watch out for us next time, Veteran difficulty. We will come back - HARD! As for Aqel's, on the eve of his birthday, we were at Tamu Selera. As soon as the clock struck 12, we sang him a birthday song! But we didn't stay for long because not many of eX showed up. Nevertheless, yesterday they had a surprise for Aqel. Too bad I wasn't there because me and my sister had belated birthday celebrations for us - plus, a water slide bouncer! It was great! I had great time with my family and relatives!
You know, it's sad that I only update when I feel like it nowadays and have not been visiting my blog regularly. Just so you know, I'm getting my driver's license soon. Right now, I'm waiting for the result of my written test. I sat for it on Saturday last week. Hope I get it!

Bayern Munich 1-1 Chelsea (PEN: 3-4)
Chelsea have done it yet again! They've won their 2nd trophy this season which is the Champions League trophy! That was a really emotional and nerve-wracking! When Muller scored the first goal for Bayern Munich in the 83rd minute, I thought it was all over for Chelsea - but I kept on believing that Chelsea could bounce back into the game and blow Bayern away. Fortunately, they did! All thanks to a Didier Drogba header into the top right corner having the #1 German keeper Neuer no chance to keep it out.
It went into extra time and Drogba made a silly challenge on Ribery in the box. Penalty was given to Bayern and this is the second time I thought it was over - BUT I KEPT ON BELIEVING! I clasped my hands together, hoping for a lucky save by Petr Cech. Robben was the taker and I had a feeling that he would score. Luckily for us, Cech pulled off a magnificent save! The ball slipped through Cech's arms, but bounced off his body leaving it unattended behind him. He quickly got to it and held it like a newborn baby! Chelsea was still safe, and Drogba is not the man to blame after such challenge. Everyone was looking tired except for the fresh legs like Fernando Torres and Ivica Olic, maybe.
Thus, both halves of extra time were over and it was then brought to penalties. First for Bayern, Lahm. He sent to the right side of the goal with Cech having a touch to it, but failed to keep it out. First for Chelsea, Juan Mata. Unfortunately, he didn't score with Neuer going the right and pushing his shot out. The second penalty taker for Bayern was Mario Gomez. His one went in too! The second taker for Chelsea was David Luiz. Remember his penalty that didn't go in against Racing Genk? The commentator mentioned something about that when Luiz was about to take it. Thank God, it went in. Way to go! The third penalty taker for Bayern was Neuer himself! I bet he was trying to pressure and shake Cech to lose his confidence and concentration. He got it right into the net, and Cech also went the right way, but couldn't save it. The third Chelsea taker was Frank Lampard. I've always believed in Lampard to take penalties. Great for the captain, he smashed it right in the middle which flew right above Neuer and into the net.
The next taker for Bayern was Ivica Olic. Unlucky for him, his shot was punched out by Cech! Super reflexes by the Czech goalkeeper! As for Chelsea, Ashley Cole was up. I had a feeling that he would score, and he did! He took it brilliantly! Curling the ball into the far left of Neuer. No chance at all. The fifth taker for Bayern was... Bastian Schweinsteiger. I thought he was going to score, but he sent to the ball to the right side of the goal, Cech got his fingertips to it, and it struck the woodwork! Unbelievable! Next it was Drogba's turn! The last and final kick of the game which could seal the win for Chelsea, and for the trophy, of course! He sent Neuer the wrong way and he couldn't believe it himself! My goodness! Amazing, breathtaking game! I bet Roman Abramovich would want to keep Roberto Di Matteo, interim manager for Chelsea after AVB, as the permanent manager for Chelsea next season! 2 trophies in 6 months. Amazing.
Here's the penalty shootout video:

Labuan Made A Difference
Just one night in Labuan made a difference! I miss the place already! Afiq, Bahrin and Aziz were the only ones with me during the trip. It was really an adventure! We had our uncontrollable laughs, long walks, weary legs, our very own GeezPS, cameraman and dedicated athlete. Thing is, all of us lacked sleep - and I bet we still do! I saw a girl who looked ALMOST the same as Lisa Surihani (Her name's Umiyul and she's a staff at KFC. I hope she's still there when I visit again next time. Lol.)
We stayed at Avida Hotel. Here's a quick picture of how the room looks like. Ours was a little bigger because we got the deluxe room - more like, sponsored. Hehehe!
Looks nice, doesn't it? The bed and the end table's positions are correct, but the not the curtain and window. When we reached here, we only had less than an hour of rest because in the room because we had to go to the sports complex for Bahrin's registration. We used a taxi, and boy, something funny happened in the taxi. Maybe the taxi driver thought Bahrin was Chinese. He was old. When we reached our destination and we asked for the fare, he spoke in Chinese. I understand a little Chinese, but he spoke so fast that I wasn't able to catch a word that he was saying - maybe "KWAI LE", but I don't think that makes sense. Or does it? Bahrin just gave him RM10 and off we went.
One word: EPIC. It seems like I can't go any further because the rest of the things that happened were exciting! Thanks for reading anyway, guys! I know it sucks that I can't blog about it all during my time there. Maybe I'll update bit by bit sooner or later!

You Are Perfect.
I had the most exciting dream yet about time-travelling! This is the second time, and this time, I was in my former school, St. Andrew's. It was snowing. It all happened so fast, yet I can still remember how it felt like to be walking around the snowy atmosphere. I was "dropped" in the school's hall. Some kids were running around playing tag and some were in a circle. My brother was with me. I overheard him in a conversation with a girl. (It looked like my cousin, but I'm not sure.) He was asking whether she knows One Direction or not. That girl yapped on and on about the nonexistence of this "1D" boy band. I got tired so I decided to find out about the girl that's always been on my mind lately. I went outside, drawing my coat tightly because of the cold, cold weather. It looked and felt something like this...

Saviour Of The Night
Hello! I'm sleeping over at Memet's tonight. Really sorry for not updating that much. Internet hasn't been "available" at my place lately. Broadband, to be honest, is such bore. Besides, it won't work on my laptop lately. I have no idea. (I have probably mentioned this in the previous post, haven't I?) Anyways, I'd like to congratulate Chelsea for winning against Barcelona at the Bridge in the 1st leg of the Champions League semi-final! The 2nd leg will commence next week where Chelsea will travel to Camp Nou to face the crucial Catalans. I hope Chelsea will defend as good as they did during the 1st leg, or better, maybe!
Well, I guess I should really update more so I could share what's happening lately. My birthday's in 3 days. (Just saying. Hehehe!) Thanks for reading, guys! Before I go, let me post the Owl of the Month!

If Video Games Were Real 2.
Hello! It's been a long time since I've posted up something new in this very blog of mine. Broadband connections rarely work anymore on my laptop. I don't know why. Well, right now, I am happily surfing the net. I'm sleeping over at Omar's tonight. I am exhausted! My neck is having some kind of pain, probably because of yesterday's match!
Oh! Speaking of yesterday's match, we won 6-3 against LCB UFC! I scored the second goal of the game for Cobra! The rest are lucky shots. It's all about the skills and timing. Thanks to those who came to support! Thanks to those who assisted really well on the field. You know who you are!
Maybe I'll just post up a new Smosh video which was released a few minutes ago!

It's All About Waffles.
I was really bored earlier so I checked out pictures of delicious waffles. I, somehow, stumbled upon a cool picture of a pair of shoes! Check this out!

My new client, Francisco.
We ordered pizzas earlier. I was in the middle of praying when my brothers came into my room looking through my games. I overheard them talking about "selling" my secondhand PS3 games. I wasn't at ease, but thank goodness I was almost done. I headed straight to the door to find... the pizza delivery guy. He was the one who was asking about whether I was selling my PS3 games or not. Well, thing is, I have been wanting to sell a few old games like Dark Sector, PES 2009, Yakuza 3 etc. (His name is Francisco, by the way.) I sold my Dark Sector for $25. He told me that he didn't have enough money to make the payment, but he did give me $10 in advance and will pay me the rest when he receives his salary. He gave me his phone numbers so it'd be easier for us to meet up somewhere. I asked him if he bought the game for his son and he said yes. He also said that this is considered a favour for his little chap! That was weird, but I am earning money so I thank Allah for this!
