sorry! slipped into the pandemic of irregular updating. i'll try to update more often. =)

okay, so. a brief entry on the past week then.

hmm, last Sunday i helped Denise with her Final Project. it's a short film titled "Regret". it's about this boy, Kent, who dies and then he gets a guided tour of his past with the Angel of Death. he bears this grudge against his mother for supposedly chasing his father away. as he relives his past and finds out the truth, he then regrets not treating his mother better.

i found it rather fascinating though it was rather tedious. and i liked the food. =D thanks Denise! too bad i had to play the dad though. i had to say evil, soul-destroying lines that would make the recipient commit suicide.

here's one part:

"SCENE 5: Pavement – DAY

MOM and DAD are arguing.

MOM
How can you do this? How can you choose her over us?

DAD
You're always working.

MOM
I'm supporting you and paying off your debts. Or have you forgotten, now that you're with your pretty, little bimbo?

DAD grabs MOM.

DAD
She's more of a woman than you could ever dream to be.

MOM walks away but turns around.

MOM
I'll sign the papers."

i swear, i hope i'll never have to say, "She's more of a woman than you could ever dream to be" EVER. it's so bloody EVIL.

as if those lines weren't enough. my jack-ass dad character had to totally busted his wife. here's the other part:

"DAD is sitting at the dining table, MOM puts a plate of food on the table in front of him. She sits next to him and starts to eat but DAD just stares at MOM.

MOM
I think we should give this one last try. (Pushes brochure towards DAD) I know this counselor-

DAD looks at the brochure, swipes it away and stands up. He has turned away from Mom.

DAD
I don't want to have anything to do with this family. Just sign the papers, Denise and I will be leaving the country soon.

MOM
What about Kent?

DAD
What about Kent? He won't fit into our
life. You raise him.

KENT is shocked to hear this and turns to look at AOD.

MOM stands up to clear the plates.

MOM
Let's not start again. Kent will be home from school soon.

DAD
I'm leaving.

DAD stands up, grabs his luggage and leaves the house."

[please pardon the singlish but] wah lau, knn the father is really a bustedizing busted la. and apparently the dad leaves the mom for Denise. =D

so yeah. that was Sunday. [21/8] it was fun!

then on Wednesday we had a match against SRJC. i didn't play but what the hell, not like i would've aided their cause. but one thing is certain, we out-played SR like hell, though the score line did not agree. we went down in the first half by really bad marking during a corner. but we kept our heads up and pulled one back 5 minutes or so later. Sheer curled the ball in right from the corner. magical stuff. Hafiz also shined like a supernova. he was simply untouchable. he practically waltzed through the midfield and their defense. evading all the tackles that came in. it was as if it was pre-cognitive. like her KNEW what was going to happen. at one point, he evaded 3 people who were sticking legs out at him, trying to get the ball. what he did was so magical, i couldn't comprehend it. i only remember cheering really loud and watched as he passed the ball away. he also had his lightning pace, and his elusiveness and appeared to be everywhere on the pitch. simply untouchable. some of the other guys were saying he had a "Butterfly"on him; the DotA weapon that granted 25% Evasion. others said he had boots of speed, the other DotA item that granted 90 movement and teleportation. my god, i sound like a DotA geek, but really, i'm checking from the website. hee.

anyway, we really played well and should've won. we looked sharper and fitter. the individual talent was enough to annoy them and one of them got send off after two yellow cards. but that guy deserved it. he wasn't playing anyway. he just strolled here and there and shouted and clapped. didn't contribute. the final score really took the gloss off our performance. oh well, it shows promise for CJC Soccer.

which then brings us to today. well, nothing much.

oh yeah. Liverpool won the Super Cup. not the most exciting of matches. but Liverpool didn't play exceptionally well to win it. Cisse's goal were sheer luck and their performance during normal time was not convincing at all as European Champions. seriously, i do not know what a lot of them are doing. i have a feeling Benitez's purchases were a bit rushed and that the players do not have the quality he feels they do. Zenden? yeah, he WAS good but his recent displays don't demand a second look. Alonso's once mezmerising passing has also gone awry; punting balls too long many times. Gerrard has been rather erratic. he seems to be like a warp drive engine. going all out, ripping defences for a couple of matches, then, he needs to recharge to do it again. not like Lampard, who can go 20 games without burning out. sometimes i envy Chelsea, but then again, so does everyone else.

oh well. i don't WANT to talk about promos. so bye.

"i'll sing along
the whole day through
just do your best to hear me
it's all you can do"
