A walk in KL

I planned to take the train in KL, where the last train was said to be at 12am. But, when we reached there at 11.50pm, it was already closed. Same old Malaysia, never stick to their plans, causing trouble to everyone!! Anyway, we ended up walking.

Sad to say, there ain't a good feeling walking in KL late at night. Yes, I was a little paranoid, very very aware of my surroundings and our safety. We kept to the main roads which are well lighted by street lamps, but the fear still remains in me. Every motorbike went by us is like a threat to me, and nerves in me made me ready to pounce on anyone to make sure we are safe!

Why? Why is my very own country making me feel so unsafe? In fact, I feel so much safer at Des Moines, Iowa, USA!! A foreign country is giving me the security instead of my very own country!! Why can't Malaysia improve? They say there will be no more bribery, they say there is 1 Malaysia, but I don't see any of these situation improving!! It's been 2 years since I step foot on Malaysia and no improvements have been made! This is so disappointing.

It's the same with government workers speaking English. 2 years went by and yet there are no improvement with them dealing in English. Yet the government change its English policy in high school back to BM. Outrageous! How can the country improve when the very basic thing is not met?! Sigh...

This is saddening. This is disappointing. Why why??

Manchester United @ Malaysia - Part 2

The post I have been waiting to put up is finally here!! =D Yes, it's all about Manchester United Football Club again!! Wahaha... Lucky me, I get to go for both the training session and also the actual match, which was worth every single penny!! =D




I managed to get a picture of every single player who played on Saturday night against Malaysia XI. No, I am a strong Man. Utd. fan, so I never catch much of the Malaysian players. Heck, even the whole stadium is turned to a sea of red!!





There's only one part (a couple of rows, or maybe a little handful more?) of Malaysian fans, though there are some more spread around the stadium, standing out like small mushrooms in a few of grass because of the color contrast. They did managed to make some noise to cheer the Malaysian team, but when Man. Utd. fans cheer, the noise level increase significantly and the Malaysian cheer has no where to be heard.




The match was a thrilling match, leaving everyone gasping till the 85th minute. It looked destined for a historic draw, but Man. Utd. new signing Michael Owen put the team in front and destroyed the Malaysian team's dream. Nevertheless, everyone was in for a Man. Utd. win and we got what we paid for. Wonderful.



With that said, the final score at 90th minute is 2-3 to Man. Utd. Even though the Malaysian team lost, everyone are impressed with their performance and start to have a little more faith in the team. Don't believe me? Compare the previous meeting score between Man. Utd. and Malaysia XI! It was 0-6 to Man. Utd. back then!! This time they at least held on the a level score after the opening of the second half and they put in a lot more enthusiasm and effort! Well, at least I am impressed with their performance. What do you think? =)




Alright, enjoy the Sea of Red at Bukit Jalil, Malaysia, as it is time for me to sign out and head back to my Dreamweaver studies. Adioz folks! =D

Manchester United @ Malaysia - Part 1

Today is July 17th, 2009. And it is also the day when Manchester United Football Club came all the way from Manchester, England to Bukit Jalil, Malaysia. Today is the first day of their Asia Tour 2009.



I attended their training session, which is about an hour long. It is the first time I get to see the players live instead of in the TV, which is amazing!



They are scheduled to play Malaysia XI tomorrow evening, where I can say almost 100% of the crowd are there to see the world's most famous football club (instead of supporting their very own country's football team!!).




As for now, I will be heading to bed earlier to recover from the sun burn I got earlier! Lol. Adioz!!

Happy!!!

I am happy, very very happy. Second chance is given to people, and today I witnessed this kind act. It is wonderful, very wonderful.

Everyone have strengths and weakness, and sometimes weakness overpowers their strengths. But, there are times when strengths overpower weakness, and that is when wonderful things happen. =D

I am not sure what am I crapping, but it is ok, all I know is I am extremely happy today. A very wonderful opportunity came along and it is accepted with an extremely excited pair of hands. Wonderful. =)

Winter Sonata

I am listening to the piano version of Winter Sonata, and it makes me feel so...

lonely...
sad...
cold...
insecure...
lost...

It is as if I am walking alone in a street, and with Winter Sonata's images (no, I have not watched the movie, but have seen poster about it), I feel like I am walking alone in a street with snow every where, with gray and darkening sky, feeling so lost and lonely.

I hope this won't happen to me, I hope I won't feel lonely, I hope...
