Tennis, Soccer and Alex's B'day

Woke up LATE today as we had blast last nite at Morgan St. Met up with Anca, Andreas and his cousin Leonardo (wow.. what a name and imagine the expectation people got on you if you have the name) and went there with Karin, Mari and Em. Really crowded club. Lots of Mat Salleh feel really alien. Man....now i know how it feels to be a Mat Salleh stuck in a crowded place like Chow Kit or Petaling Street. hahahahahahhaha....Today.....hmmmm....due to the fact that i slept really "early" yesterday (came back 2 am, watch Athens Olympic till like 3.30 am and went to bed 4 am) I woke up late. Was suppse to call Karin at 5 am to wake her up cause some how her alarm clock is dead, anyway i called her only at 5.55 am and we were suppoer to be at work at 6.00am. So Karin came with here (over due licence plate) and we both went to work feeling really horrible, first LATE and second hung over from drinking yesterday and only 1+ hour of sleep and thirdly Karins car was giving her some exciting driving as she have to pratically turn the steering side ways to drive straight and she dare not speed because of that. Luckly work was not that busy and time really fly by when you dont even know that the heck you are doing. Finish about 2 pm went home, catch up with some Olympic games and met up with mr noodle and general celso. Its really weird cause those two was watching Monster and they book look like Charlize Therone cause the both just woke up. Muka bengkak... Went of over to Jorge and Karin's and went to Wisper Hollow. We were (jsut as Justin put it: Hitting the ball around) and picking up balls looking like 4 retarded person on the tennis court. Later Valeria, Chad, Alex and his gf, Amine, Emir and Chad and Elma came. Elma can really hit the ball while the rest were just what i call it......retard-ing around. At one point Justin Noodle suggest we should be in the Olympic......for the Circus event. Anyway we went off early and went for out soccer match at Vetta along Mid River Mall Road. I had a funny filling today that we might lose the game today. Match started with me stupidly letting in the first goal EASYLY!!!! I still cannot believe that i was so stupid arghhh....... anyway, yes we went on to lose 4-2> What is more frustrating is we were playing so unorganise and certain people were playing as a "team" some "pussy head" was in the team, but what the heck just a game man...there must be a winner and a loser. But really hate it when we lose. Anyway, today is Alex Cuzic's party and we went straight to W.Hollow for the pool party. When we arrive we were greeted with some unpleasent greeting by come quarters who came from a country that is so proud of their football tradition and he dont play football himself? Anyway met up with Jessica (LCP Mizzou), Jeremy her bf, Bullan, Sabina, Cizaratira, Andreas, Anca, Chaker, Alfredo, Emir, Amine, Valeria, Justin, David Uy and a few Turkish ppl sitting in the dark ler. Throw Chaker in the pool and somehow Emir and Chad cought me and i send flying in the pool with Chaker coming along to try to drown me. For the first time in my life i really felt i was drowning, water was going into my mouth and nose and i was struggling and drowning. I think i gulp like 3 huge gulp in 3 seconds. With the "help" from Chaker the push me down, i sink further deeper at one point i felt like giving up and just drown and DIE. F**K the guy is really crazy man....arghhh...i think i heard Chad shouting at him to STOP and finally knock some sense into his brian......HELLOOOOOOOO....are you trying to kill me? What did i do? Wet your diapers? I think i was at the side of the pool for like 15 minutes trying to breath and get over the 3 huge gulp of water. When i got up, to my shock, no one notice it even ms Emily Tan, so into talking that her beloved BF is drowning while she is busy eating hot dogs and drinking and partying....hmmmmm......disappointed. I think was suppose to DIE in the pool earlier because some how, my mom called from Malaysia like 15 mins after I got out from the pool. Maybe the phone call was for EMILY TAN to inform my mom about me DEATH!!!!!...sad but true. Miracle or Coincident? Then talk to Jessica about setting up SN I.D for ourself. Really she nice person to talk to and really a very detail person as she explain the whole process until we understand and we plan to meet up soon to set up our SN i.d. Left early as i was in soaking wet clothes and it was cold that night...can you imagine its SUMMER!!!! and its so cold!!!!hmmmmmmmm.....
A day of near death, bad football, lousy tennis and a crazy weather. .
Spanish work of the day: Que pasa : Whats going on?

Summer Concert at UMB Pavillion

Alanis Morrissett and Bare Naked Ladies....what else can i say? Awesome and Unbelieveable ......it rain when i finish work about 530 then i got heavier when i was at home. Concert starts around 7pm and when we left home for the concert it was pouring big time. Alan Pickett, Lavinia, Francine,Amine, Celso, Emily and me drove in 2 cars and we got ourself into a little detour to Harrah's along the way but somehow we found our way to UMB Pavillion. Along the way we listen to Alan's story on how to survive in France and how far and wide he has travel in France and how he would not travel to countried where he cant speak their language. Limited but logical.... Put on the rain jacket and it started to rain even heavier. Got the ticket at the counter and walk to the concert groud soaking wet. When the concert start the rain stop and Alanis was a really really good singer. Makes me wonder what have i been missing in the music world. Such wonderful voice mix with the such good music. She blew the harmonica with great energy and fluently. Thank you, Oughta know, You learn, Uninvited and many more. Its really amazing someone so thin and tall can really sing and have such wonderful voice. She sang thank you and had Bare Naked Ladies come in to sing along and she left the stage but some how came back again and sang one last one before she disappear.After a short break then came Bare Naked Ladies. Funny group, entertaining but we dont really know a lot of their song. At one point they were singing 3 bottle of pee that was somehow ended on the stage. Luckyly they sang all their famous songs, One Week and Pinch Me in the beginning then halfway through the "general" wanted to go so we all decided to go as the song they were singing we have never heard b4. C2 were free at the exit gate. Back home, met up with mr noodle and continue on to our nightly supper habits to Denny's. Its really amazing and scary to realise that we have bad influence on Mari and Noodle to follow our "healthy" Malaysian culture of .....SUPPER!!! But what the heck.. we here for Cultural Exhange so whats wrong.hahahahahah....
A DAY OF WONDERFUL MUSIC MIX WITH HEAVY RAIN AND CULTURAL EXCHANGE
