Paul prediction proved Mani wrong



A Singaporean based parrot namely Mani were proven wrong, making Paul the ultimate psychic. That's what you get for trying to steal in Paul's spotlight !


A shower of confetti for the Spain team.


Priceless !

Haha.


Let's not blame Paul alright ?!


Cute looking Sneijder !


The handsome proud captain, Iker Casillas holding the FIFA World Cup trophy.


Must be a great feeling to have won for their country kan ? Cool !



Haha. Nak menyelitkan juga Germany squad lands in Frankfurt photo.



Mark your calender, the Spanish finally making their debut into winning their first ever WC title after a few failed attempts in synchronizing against the years in barrier from the World Cup trophy.

A congratulation from me is in order to the Spaniard team squad and their whole number of fans / supporters worldwide. Which surprisingly have been increasing drastically. And may that be due to their Euro 2008 winning title ? Might just maybe. I wouldn't know. But some even called this a 'trend' for this year WC. What ever it is, there's no doubt it's going to be a year of celebration for the Spanish team. They wouldn't be done at least by the next 2 years until UEFA Euro 2012 in Ukraine took place. Got to wait for that now.





I personally chose to stay neutral during the game. A wind of change yet AGAIN since I decided to be on the Spanish team side a few days before. But you know what they told you, 'trust your guts'. And my guts might never be with the Spanish team in the first place if it wasn't for Brasil's lost against Netherlands (Though I'll admit on having a soft spot for their incredibly gorgeous, good looks). Yes, I guess I might have had seek revenge for Brasil. But nevertheless, I came to a decision not to be absurd about it and chose to stay by Brasil, England and Germany's side through the end instead . Though they're not in it. Aaa so sad ):




And so, the game didn't do me much anticipation. Less agony I would say. No panic attack for me. Lucky ?

It's a yellow card galore. I can tell that I hardly enjoy the game and were forcing through the trigger of going to bed before the game ended. Personally, because I thought the match wasn't as smooth as I would like it to be. It's final. You can't help but to expect more from the game. And no, this doesn't came from an angry German or Brasil's fan point of view (I'm over that). The way I see it, both teams were obviously nervous and desperate in winning. They were pushing over their limits to shoot on goals that they outbound the quality in their game.

Villa wasn't performing like how I would have hoped for. The chances were there though, but not quite up to my expectations. He could have done a lot better. The first half of the game was rather slow. Maa who happened to stayed up for the match because of Spain couldn't no longer bare with the match and decided to put herself to sleep after the first half ended. This was her reaction, "Slow nya. Germany kalau main mesti laju". Well I have to agree (And again NO ! Not because I'm a Germany fan myself). Except during their match with Spain through the semi-final. It was a mistake made by the Germans for not giving their all. Looking tiresome was one part. The other part which came from a friend who said that they felt threaten by the Spanish team because they thought that they're inexperienced to be playing against the superior Spaniards. As there were a lot of young players in the German squad. In which that friend of mine relates to a few Gunners matches against Manchester United and Chelsea. But that was a whole set of personal point of view. Either way, Spain won fair and square against both Germany and Netherlands (:


Villa getting hyped with the winning cup.


Netherlands on the other hand played violently with nine yellow cards in total during the match. Spoiling Spain's tactical in ball passing. They could have had the chances of winning the cup if it weren't for Robben two disappointing clear shot chances. It was perhaps the best chances for them since Iker was too good to be true and making it hard for the Oranje to get through. Indeed a wasteful efforts from the Dutch striker. Sneijder tried his very best in my defense. Heitinga on the other hand, got himself a sour bench to sat on after getting two yellow cards that night for agonizing the Spain players.


Poor Alonso. That must have been hurt.


The man to be thanked that night, Andres Iniesta who scored one victory goal for his team, Spain through the 116' during the extra time match.


And the lack of Netherlands photos being shown here frankly not because I'm biased. Fairly because it hurts to see this ...


Sneijder ):



This may be the end of 2010 FIFA World Cup ): But the end of it is only the beginning of my football obsession (: And my ongoing support for this tournament. YES ! I'm obsessed with football. And it's true in the saying that, 'Sports are at it's best when it brings people together'. Form 3 history taught me well. You have it all here on FIFA WC. Though there's only 32 nations in total playing in for the world class tournament, the whole world came together to join in the spirit of cheering their preferable team(s).

Family gatherings in order to watch the matches relevantly together are always an extra towards the 31 days of the World Cup season. I certainly enjoy watching the matches with my family. I'll bet the others do too. Thanks to some of my friends too who made FIFA World Cup 2010 more enjoyable to watch, because I finally understood the game well enough to construct my own opinions. Maybe. Hehe.

Mak nenek strikes back



Rise and shineeee ! Not quite a good day for the German fans I predicted. Haha. Yes, I can predict now. Oooo My Goddd ! (Sing it Usher style this time !)I hate predictionsss ! Anyways, let's skip the things we already know. Yes yes, Viva la Espana. Yadda yadda. I wouldn't say it's a luck to the Spain. They deserved to win. We all should have known that through the first half of the match. Ball possession exactly my point. Plus, the Germans look tired. I hope Spain win against Netherlands for finals. Because Oranje, I'm uhh.... full stop. Not going to say anything there. I don't even know what to say frankly. I'm not a fan maybe ? Skip skip.

So anyway, Yaya got herself a cool new bike. Orange in colour (Oranje Yaya ? Really?). And another extra bike in black for any one of us / any of her friends who would want to join her riding. We rode the bike yesterday as soon as Uncle Frank and Uncle Fir deliver it to us. And it was raining when we rode it. Up to no good. Haha. By the way, I think she got the idea to start riding again due to this :-





This was a great night for me. My first time riding a fixie bike. Thanks again to Sya. You wouldn't know how much I love her ! Not only due to this, but for many others too. She's the one and only person I could rely on when I need a shoulder to cry on if I got so stressed out at home. My siblings at home probably too young to be listening to what I have to say. Yaya wouldn't know how to help me out (I figure), if she happens to see me crying. I like to keep things to myself even from my own family. I'll say this though, being the eldest is hard. Veryyy hard. Especially when you got 5 younger siblings that could be judging you because they want to look up to someone's older than them. You'll find yourself trying to be the as-imagined-image your parents hopeful for and trying to be a perfect example to the little ones. And parents, especially Asian parents, toughen you up by not giving you enough credits. Sometimes, it's depressing. And you'll try really hard portraying and conveying them you're good enough for all they wanted you to be. And trust me, most of the time, you feel like a loser, because things will never be enough. As they strive and set you up to be the best among the best. One way to another, it's good and reflects more positive outcome. And I'll probably be thanking them more in the future. For now, fragile human being like myself need to be praised for her efforts. Which most of the time invisible and got replaced with other things I failed to impressed. And in the end, you got praised with none of the things you wish them to see you're doing. And you might act all desperate for them to notice you, knowing that you may not be living under the same roof with them in a few years time.

Now, how can I talk from bike to this aye ? Haha. Told you I'm a mak nenek suka membebel buta. Sometimes membebel helps you to express yourself. I have too many things to share for now. And I'll be having more time next week to pour it all out after I'm done with I.E.L.T.S. InsyaAllah, through my experiences, I'll give my share so that you won't feel as miserable you may be feeling now. Life's a journey. You'll be going through tides and waves, uphill and downhill, lights and darkness, and the list can go on and on. But never let yourself feel like your life is worthless. In the end, the things you could do is, to be happy for yourself and all the good things you know you did if you couldn't make other people notice that.

What a way to end this post. Dramaticccc ! Haha.
