News of the day!

It's 6 o'clock now. As usual, sitting in front of the PC, in office. Had a bad arm since yesterday, probably for lifting some heavy files few days back.. 6 more days to go and well, lots of things in my mind. A round-up of some events today:

American Idol 5: as expected, Taylor Hicks is the winner. Some said he's not talented enough to deserve it, but seriously, he standouts from the start of the season. He left an impact on everyone that follows the show, and I've only seen him thrice. Perhaps, it's unexpected after the favourites were voted out.. Many felt unjusticed for Chris Doughtry, but hey, it's ur decision, ain't it? And now, the more important thing is what does Taylor Hicks got for his "Soul Patrol" (his ultimate fans)? That, we'll have to see.

FIFA World Cup 2006: Friendly matches results:
Ecuador vs. Colombia: 1-1
Australia vs. Greece: 1-0 (half-time), interesting match to watch. Let's see how does Australia fare in international matches, and in this match with Greece, the champions of EURO 2004. Ahhh.....15 days to World Cup.. Good that I'm back at home.

Electricity up by 12%: Another price hike?! First gas, than poultry, and now electricity. Thought PM said there wouldn't be any price hike few days back.. Talk about uncertainties.. Maybe we should resume to candles and matchsticks again. Seems that everythings is going up, except our salary. Sad day for Malaysians..

KLCI: Another dip of 3.78 to 923.97 points at closing. What the hell do I care about composite index? All I'm concerned right now is how prone people are to stress nowadays, after losing money, lots of it in the share market. There'll be a big hike in mental illness' cases i presumed. India, has been cautious and aware of the possibility of a rise in suicide cases after the big drop in their sharemarket. I think, Malaysians should be more aware of this too...

So, that's pretty much of what I've read today. It's certainly covers up the current issue, economy, sports and entertainment. Hey, I didn't realize that!

And as Patrick Teoh said in his blog (Comedy tragedy, and everything else in between), reading newspaper nowadays has been such fun. It's full of mysteries and entertainment (in a sarcastic way), way better that TV shows.. A good one there..

Why Germany? It seems that they are lacking in something, couldn't put it which aspect though. They'll be in semis, but winning it? Not so sure about it..

Disabled again..

Today.. is another sad day for me. They just disabled "e-messenger", which ended my pleasure of keeping in touch with friends lately. Sigh.. exactly 14 more days, and I'll be out. Just have to be patient. Had a long talk with my boss. Many things that we've talked through and I appreciate his acceptance over my rather harsh comment. We're more like friends now, rather than him being my boss, or me being his subordinate. Frankly, it's been a long 5 1/2 half months. Unhappy i may seem, but i do learn alot while working here. Strangely, i think i might even missed this place..

Crossroads

Life is about choices.. Choices about how you want to run your life, what principles that you hold, what career you are heading in the future. Perhaps, now is a time where tough choices are ahead for me. Both family and friends have their own saying about what is the best. So, what's the best for me? I'm easily influenced by persuasion, and i usually give in easily. Sometimes ever so reluctantly, i followed what people asked or wanted me to do. I do not have much consideration of what I want in the first place. For this, I've been wasting more than a year now, which could easily turned out to be an interesting year for me to proceed to my dreams. A year of frustration, a year of uncertainty, and a year of lost chances. The 6 months in Melaka wasn't the best in my life. Some might say it's just a short period in your life. But in reality, I've lost alot of chances in this 6 months time. Work, study, career, even my relationship. Every person in my life has their

Liars in Training

I was really surprised how young kids at the age of 7 & 8 lied and giving excuses for not handing in their homework. 3 kids today gave me unreasonable and of course unbelievable excuses. Case 1: "I have the book. But when i went to buy drinks in the canteen, someone took my book from my bag. After I go back home to finished the exercise, I couldn't find it.... even my Mum couldn't find it. Really!" "emm hm....?" "But just now, when i reached the class, I found the book in my bag. I dunno how it get there, but i'm really sure that it wasn't there yesterday. Really.." "so...?" "Erm... that's why i didn't finish the exercise, cause it's just not enough time for me to finished it." she said with the sweetest smile u can ever imagine. " Can I call your mum now?" In the shortest moment, the cute little girl burst into tears. There goes the far from perfect lie.. Case 2: " My mum brought me to
