Draw

Had to settle for a 4-4 draw with BNP Paribas today even though we completely outclassed them. Haiz. I think I hit the posts at least 3 or 4 times. Xianz. Really could've won this game. Too bad I was feeling quite sick. Think I caught the flu bug from Lasse.

Heading to Genting with Ben, Brandon and Youlong tomorrow evening! Think will be spending alot of time gambling there hehe.

Life still goes on at work...

And So The Streak Ends

Was fun while it lasted. I'm refering to our winning streak. We lost to Arthur Allens 2 - 5. Xianz, we'd surely have beaten them if we had more than the 5 people who turned up!

Oh well season 2 is finally over and we did better than our first so thats a good thing. Season 3 starts next week.

Was dining in Au Petit Salut last night with some HNW guests. I gotta says Chef Karl's food were seriously pretty good! Add to that the wine pairing with each course and I was in heaven with our very own Craig Russell for company.

Can't ask for more.

Tomorrow my secondment as PAM stand-in is finally over! Whooot! I've learned soooo much the last 2 weeks and it did cause abit of stress but hey, now that its almost over, it was fun lookin' back.

Looking forward to the weekend...

Bored in Bangkok

Wow.

I never knew Bangkok could possibly be this boring. Due to a national mourning event, alcohol and clubbing have been banned in the city for the weekend. Seriously!!! Bummer man. Cannot even have a simple beer at a local pub.

We were so demoralised last night that we ended up at the Sheraton Hotel lounge which was one of the few places that served beer. There was hardly anything else we could do. One beer and we were heading back to our hotel for an early night. Sigh.

Xianz.

Wish I were on the early flight home tomorrow.

Waaaaah!!!

First Cleansheet Ever

Today we beat the crap out of BarCap. Won 14-0. It wasn't even a contest. We were dancing all over them and toying with them as though we were playing against kindergarten kids. Very morale boosting, and this is our 3rd win on the trot. Never thought I'd see this day for Saxo FC.

Been feeling damn blah lately. Maybe its the workload (though it feels manageable somewhat). Time to freshen up tomorrow. Maybe I need a good smack in the face.

Heading to Bangkok over the weekend to conduct another round of seminars there. Hopefully it'll all go well. Need to remember to buy more dog shit for the wifey. Haha.

Some Weekend Inspiration

Speed Skating 1,000 Meters - Steven Bradbury 2002 Olympics

Where amazing happens.

Gets into semi-finals due to a someone else's disqualification. Then into the finals when 3 of the 4 in front of him fall down. Then wins the final above. Its never over till the fat lady sings. First ever gold medal in the winter olympics for Australia.

Ji Pa Ban

If anyone of you have the mp3 of this song, I will be ever so grateful.

2nd Win In A Row!

Beat BNP 7-5! And scored a hattrick! So happie to get the winning feeling. And we did it with only 6 people! Feels great.

This week has been a tough week. Hopefully next week wouldn't be as bad.

Keeping fingers crossed that I can watch Tropic Thunder tomorrow.

The Calling

"You can serve many companies, but you can only serve one nation in your lifetime."

I'm not sure if that's true since I know footballers and table-tennis players seem to be able to manage two or more at different stages of their lives.

But that's what a good bro of mine said earlier today. In utter seriousness. Of course what he was refering to was largely political. One of the few I've grown up with to be so active in that front since young. I'm impressed at the way he's led such a clean life (free from drugs, smoking, alcohol, women, gambling etc) so I think he'll likely go quite far from what I can see. He said it was a greater calling.

Such conviction.

I'll definitely cast a vote for him if he ever represented my ward!
