Good & Bad news for Liverpool

GOOD NEWS



We are in the Champions League!
Yea, we are pretty lucky to get a goal at the 118th minute by Dirk Kuyt.
This is the 3rd time we are winning matches based on last minute goals.

It's absolutely not healthy and I really hope Liverpool will improve.
Anyhow, a win is still a win and we qualified!

Awesome!

BAD NEWS



Steven Gerrard is INJURED!
How can this happen?

Fine, he wasnt fit for quite some time already, but why must he miss the game when we are playing against Manchester United on Sept 13?
Gosh.
I'm so scared ok.
What if we lose? Bcuz we dun have the inspirational captain to motivate the rest on?
HUH?!

HOW?!!!!

I'm really annoyed at this news ok.
So sad.
and Fernando Torres better dun get injured at this time.
If not, my heart will break into pieces, I tell you! =/

Stevie G is injured, im so sad. =(
Sigh

Out with the Olympics and In with the US Tennis Open

I'm very tired now. I wanna sleepppppppp!!
Need to finish by tute first. Meanwhile, I'm taking some time off to blog first! =D

So, Olympics was officially over last Sunday.
The closing ceremony was nice, but I just didn get the performace by David Beckham.
Like what the crap?! Should at least juggle the ball and do some few tricks la. O_o

Anyway, the Tennis US Open 08 is here!



Nadal won the 1st round, but in a tough match. I guess he must have been pretty tired from the Olympics.



Novak Djokovic. Hehe. Look at him. SO CUTEEEEEEE!!!
I love him la.
I wish he can go all the way into the finals! =D



Roger Federer.
Past the 1st round too.
No surprise here. Hehe...

So far, there has no big upset la.
Besides Richard Gasquet losing in the 1st round.
Let's just see what happens during the week.
I hope the finals would be between Nadal v Djokovic or Nadal v Federer! =D

Liverpool is playing tonight!
Come support with me and say Liverpool rocks! =)

The Fastest Man On Planet Earth - Twice

When I saw how Usain Bolt, the Jamaican athlete broke TWO world records in the running events which seemed untouchable, I just can't help to think of the famous song sang by Coldplay, Speed of Sound.



The sapu-ation (sorry bit BM-ish) of the 100-200 meters sprinting event was done by him in style.



Imagine, 200 meters in just 19.30 seconds. I would be panting heavily if I can finish in 19 minutes lol.



He beats the world record initially held by American legend Michael Johnson who had 19.32 seconds.



Can you imagine how important 2 seconds are to Bolt? Or any other athletes?



We tend to waste every second given in real life, but for these runners, it meant the world to them, as personal and national pride and glory take place in their quest for success.





My lecturer, George (with the nice ass according to Li San XD) talked about his past as a runner in his university days, and he said the privilege to don the running jersey was a proud moment to him.

It truly is.



Any opportunity to compete for your country is an honour, and Bolt proves why he is a winner despite his poor backgrounds in his native country.









Lightning Bolt

Happy birthday and you deserve your gift =)

Flops at Centre Stage

After sharing much of the limelight, the writer is back =P

Today's Malaysian papers' highlight:

Lee Chong Wei, badminton player awarded Datukship in Penang after his heroics in Olmpics


I would pity Nicol David if she feels insulted, as I think she deserves the creditation so much more than Lee Chong Wei, though he got a silver in the Olympics in the singles badminton event.


But I have full faith in Chong Wei, unlike so many other athletes who slumped so badly after doing well in just a few outings.


But as it reminds me, I still feel disappointed after watching Chong Wei losing so tamely to World number one Lin Dan in the final.


It was totally too easy for Lin Dan, whom I think would not expect such an easy match himself.


The score was 21-13,21-8. EIGHT by a world number 2?


Michael, my lecturer always said we are not the one playing in the match so we can't criticize too much, but the truth is, we are not playing there. IT'S CHONG WEI!


Technically, I think Chong Wei has all the big guns inside him and if he is in top form, Lin Dan may lose to him also. But thanks to his fidgetings and nervousness again in a big stage like this, his performance was WAY below par.


I could still remember I was expecting a heck of match 40 minutes before the match when I was still doing FP tutorial. XD I seriously simply did the questions, as I could not concentrate already. My mind is already in the shuttlecock swt.


But it turned out in the end it was a REAL disappointment. It's done and dusted in just merely 40 minutes. The manner in which he lost, was even more saddening. So far away from how he dismantled Sony Kyuncuro in the quarters.


To be fair to him, it was a silver in the end, and maybe he just needs to learn how to handle pressure in the big stage like this, and you don't always get into the final of an Olympics event.
Buck up Chong Wei!

The Beijing Upset

Haha. I think this upset is worse than our country's Chong Wei.

Liu Xiang, the defending champion of 110m hurdles in Athens, is injured.
He's OUT of the event.
Haha, I just gotta emphasize that, cuz its super big upset.
He and Yao Ming are the most adored athletes in China. Not LinDan. Not GuoJingJing.
But Liu Xiang and Yao Ming.
*
Everyone in China has been waiting for the day to come so that they can see him race and get them a gold medal in the track.
and now its gone.
I believe Liu Xiang himself is devastated and frustrated about the injury.
After all, he carries the weight of his fellow men to get a medal in the track.
*
Oh well.
Ok, seriously, how should I catch up blogging about the Olympics?
There are so many events to blog about!
I cant take itttt!!!
*
Badminton?
Swimming?
Table tennis?
Tennis?
Volleyball?
Archery?
*
I DUNNO MANNNNN! lol.
btw, Liverpool 1-0!!! Haha.

Rafael Nadal takes top ranking



Roger Federer was the no.1 in the tennis world for 4 years and now, Rafael Nadal is taking over.
A new tennis king is here!
After the win in the Wimbledon, I believe this is the year of success for him.
He has been playing quite consistently and I hope he will continue to work hard in his career so he could retain his no.1 spot!

I love you, NADAL! =D
