Spain crowned champions....

SPAIN finally ended their 44-year wait for a major international title with a 1-0 victory over Germany at the Euro 2008 final.





Fernando Torres scored the only goal of the game in the first half as football's perennial underachievers finally banished that unwanted tag to the history books.






Even one goal is enough to help Spain lift the European title...


As for German,

German coach Joachim Loew professed his admiration for his side, who defied expectations to reach the final.


"I have to compliment the team for what they have achieved over the past few weeks," said the 48-year-old.


"It has been fantastic. The players are obviously disappointed, but they have every reason to hold their heads up high."

But we will praying the German will bounce back in 2012 cup.




Lastly, Sayo-nara to Euro 2008...... Its indeed a very entertaining & enjoyable tournament!!

Remember......

IMPOSSIBLE is NOTHING brought to you by ADIDAS!!!

RED bomb!!

One early morning, I received a "mysterious" & unknown call from one of my high school mate...

Her name is Miss Velvet Ting..... She was so excited when heard my voice and told me she was getting marry and ask me to attend her wedding. She told me to get the invitation card from Peter (cafe cafe) and i got to share THIS wedding card with my another fren(Adrian). Reason is:- she got no enough card for each of her invited frens...... But the problem is WHO gonna keep this card??

After talking for about 5 minutes, some curiousity questions POP out into my mind!! This "blur" going-to-be bride didn't mention WHEN & WHERE is her wedding??

Cos all this while, she has been living in AUSTRALIA and suddenly called and ask me to join her wedding dinner!! Ehh.... Do you wan me to fly all the way to AUS just to attend your wedding??

Then i said: "Excuse me, gal!!! when is your wedding?
(at heart got some preparation wanna fly to AUS to attend her wedding).

She replied, 1st of July...... OMG!! so rush..... Ah moi, its end of June oledi!!

Then i said OK!! She said "See you then", she hanged up........

Du du....... I was "stunned".....

I quickly call another fren of mine who i think will be invited too. He told me the wedding is held at Sibu.... you can feel that there's a sigh of relief out of me at that time!!

More RELIEF when i saw this card!





A lovely card......

Congratulations!! Miss Velvet, you are officially eh eh eh.... after 1st July!!

Looking forward for your big day!!

Euro 2008 Final....



VIENNA: Spain will head into today’s Euro 2008 final against Germany.
So for those who are die-hard fans of football, remember to set ur alarm clock to 2.30am (30/6) in order to get ur ass up to watch the once in every four years big football tournament like this.
Before that, let's BET who will lift the European Cup Champion this year?
oops.... betting?
with money ??
u "give" or "let" how many balls?? pay back how much?
wat's ur "forecast" and pay back??
This is the most chit chat questions i heard when i was having my brunch jus now at coffee shop!!
Even some person who didnt know wat is football about (only know who is Ronaldo), will bet which team to win tonite!! trying their luck to earn some "extra".... Mayb who knows got "luck" ler......... A "short cut" way to earn fast money!!
Below u can hear wat's the example or common conversation on betting system here!! Some of you mayb will "blur" or confuse wat's they are saying.... but i will explain it later!!
Mr. X : Hello, ah long ah? tonite football wat "plate"?
Mr.Y aka bookie: Tonite Spain give half ball!! win 95...
Mr.X: Oh... like tat ka!!
After thinking for 2 minutes......
Mr.X : Ah long, i take Spain. 1 ringgit!!
Mr.Y aka bookie: Ok..... on!!
Interesting conversation??
Here's the coding defined:-
plate = betting odd (in betting code)
give half ball = Spain got to win at least 1-0!!
win 95 = u win 95% of the total amount u betting.....
1 ringgit= RM1 = RM1000 (in bookie betting code)
From my past experience, a lot of ppl have LOST tonnes of money. Just because they knew who is Ballack or Ronaldo is, & knowing this ppl got quality so make the assume that their team will win.... but who knows at the end..... the results is not wat they expected or wanted, so their RM?????? bye bye lor..........
The worst part is when they lost, they dun have the CASH to pay back the bookie....
So some of them will try to borrow money from their relatives. Those who lost more than few hundred thousand, mayb will consider "cabut" (run away)...... If not, ur fren ah long will come after you and give you a "hard & rough" massage!!
Anyway, BETTING with money is not "encourage" by ME...
For me, since it's a once in every 4 years tournament, a little BET will do la... but without $$$ ok!! You can bet with ur frens on 1 can of "Coke" or 5 plate of fried mee (for bigger bet :s)
This is how it played!! Last 2006 World Cup, i know my gf who she "think" Portugal will win cos got Mr C.Ronaldo in there.. So i lured her into betting with me on 1 can of Coke and i took the Opposition team(i forget which one already) vs her "Ronaldo" Portugal team.... Guess wat, I won.....
She's not happy and accused me of "cheated" her...... Until now, i havent get that COLA from her!!! hai....... Gals..........



For Conclusion:- Just create some FUN out of this big event like this!!

This morning saw Superb SPAIN stormed into their first final in 24 years by rolling over in-form Russia 3 -0 in Vienna!!

Here are the highlights.......

Luckily the Russian players dun hv the same "thinking" as the Spaniards. If not, we will hv a endless game to watch.........



The Russian football team brought lots of supporters....... But they still cant stop this man!!



Daniel Guiza showing off his "Baja Hitam" posture........



At the end the Spaniards won!!!

Excuse me, Too early for celebration la..... You still got a final game against Germany to play......

As for Germany...... do you know why the Turkish team lost!!

Bcos Germany sent this gal running out of the field at the final 90 minutes when they both draw at 2-2......


So when the Turkish footballers saw this, they were "puzzled" and "stood" thre..... Then the Germans took this opportunity to score!!

Yeah!! Germany win 3-2......

But Applause to the Turkish football team!! They really played good attacking football & have the never say die attitude.....

Mayb we can be like the Turkish football players!! Never give up even the opponents "score" first....

Even if you lost.... you lose with PRIDE!!!

And win a KISS..............

German coach Joachim Low exchanges a tender moment with the Turkish team.

KungFu Panda..




This is the story about a big, fat, slacker panda, named Po, who is the biggest fan of Kung Fu but is obliged to work in his father’s noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfil an ancient prophecy, Po's dreams become reality when he joins the legendary Furious Five- Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey and their guru, Master Shifu.

The lazy and irreverent panda, Po, must somehow become the Dragon master in order to save the Valley of Peace from a villainous snow leopard, Tai Lung.

Set in the legendary world of ancient China, this is the story of Po, our unlikely hero, who enters the rigid world of kungfu and turns it upside down. Po ultimately becomes a hero by learning that if he believes in himself, he can do anything.

If a panda can become a hero, so can YOU !!

A great cartoon to watch!! My gf laughed non-stop from the beginning to the end!! As a result, we ended up at KFC cos feeling hungry after a long laugh......
