BWF World Super Series Master Final 2008

If it wasn't for studying the Microsoft exam this coming Tuesday, i would have bought the ticket and drove to KK to catch the World Super Series Master Final 2008! Now i can only watch the live telecast =.= ^&%#&$@..!!

[Denmark VS Indonesia] - Mixed Doubles
What an awesome match played by the Danes! Congratz to Thomas & Kamilla for grabbing 1st place in Super Series 2008 Mixed Doubles! A little dissapointment from INA, despite majority crowds cheering for INA, The Danes manage to escape with a sensational win!

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

[Malaysia VS Denmark] - Men's Singles
What an AMAZING start by our fellow M'Sian and also our world champion! 11-0 lead against Peter Gade? Things are looking really bad for Peter! LCW delivered a scintillating smash to end 1st set @ 21-8

2nd set started with both players racing the score until Peter got stuck in 16! What a beauty LCW fooling Gade with a shot to the baseline! LCW is like a red hot chilli pepper today! So HOT & UNSTOPABLE! He destroyed Peter @ 21-8, 21-16 in only 33 minutes to finally win a tournament as a top seed. Congratz to LCW for winning the WSSM 2008 Men's Singles! A true world champion!

阿婆铁蛋 (Old Granny's Iron Egg) - Tasty Preserved Eggs!

I've always thought "Ah Po Tie Dan"(Old Granny's Iron Egg) was a very painful treat! My granma used to ask me if i'd like to eat that, if i say yes, I would get knocked in the head by her knuckles. OUCH!

Now my aunt got the real thing from Taiwan. I thought it's gonna taste like sour plum but was proofed wrong after i tasted it! It tasted like "Herbal Eggs" which i loved very much! The feeling when eating this is the same as eating normal Herbal Eggs, its just that their skins are harder *As expected, if not how would it live by its name if its not hard??* LOL! A very tasty treat! But very high in cholesterol!

Alan Says: An Early X'Mas Present..!

Got myself an early X'Mas present this year! Finally laid my hands on Sony's DSC-T500 Digital Camera! An item crossed out from my 2009 Wishlist and it's not even time yet!! Muahahah! I got my aunt to get it for me in S'pore, but sadly the sales guy gave her the wrong color! I wanted black but got silver instead. Its not that bad so i think i'll stick with it instead of making a big fuss and have my aunt go all the way back to exchange for the black one. Have seen alot of good quality clips taken by this model posted in YouTube, i haven't test it though since the battery is still charging now. LOL. Will probably be posting videos soon! Stay tuned people!

Alan Says: What A Bad Day!

I've gotten like only 3 hours of sleep today? Serves me right for always getting things done only at the very last minute! Seems like I've woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. 1st is I'm SERIOUSLY very sleepy because of only 3 hours sleep AND i still need to work. 2ndly I've got $250 missing from my bank a/c (Just noticed it today and the bank is checking on it now) and 3rdly which is the worse, I've got diarrhea...!! Small matters to bitch about, but its a way to release stress. C'yall

Alan Says: WEEKENDS!

Another Saturday another week. Time is seriously zapping by very very fast! It's like i still can taste the salmon sashimi i ate last week and here i am ready to finish off this week! This holiday mood is making me crazy, i feel like taking the whole December off from work! LOL! IMPOSSIBLE! I'll BE FIRED! Muahahhah!

I'll be massing Rappelz SEA + doing updates and research on new gadgets & technologies this weekend and not to forget to finish off the tons of animes I've downloaded. =.= As for this month, I'll be concentrating mainly on my Japanese course, I've already not revised my previous 2 lessons and Sakurai sensei will definitely kill me on the next course session!

Sony's X1 kept on popping out in my mind these few days! I soo sooooo wish i could get it for myself this Christmas...but u know...It's like 1.2k? not $120! Blah i'm not that rich, so i guess i have to wait till yearly bonus day! Weeee~~! Have a nice weekend y'all~~ :D:D:D:D

Alan Says: Final Month For Year 2008

With just a blink of an eye and here we are reaching the final month of 2008. December is definitely a scary month for me if I’m in a situation where I’m so screwed with money; which by the way is the situation I’m in now! There are loads of birthdays, parties and events being scheduled this month and hell my wallet is already as flat as KFC’s Zinger “MAX” burger =.= Not to mention CNY falls on the 1st month of 2009! Urk…@_@ Screw me! Hope i will be able to manage my money flow better in 2009 since it’s gonna be my year ;) Yes, I’m an Oxen guy! :D さようなら 2008 年!
