Gunners fan hangs himself after United victory May 6, 2009
An Arsenal fan hung himself following his team's 4-1 aggregate drubbing by arch-rivals Manchester United in the Champions League semi-final, police said.
Arsenal lost 3-1 to United in the second leg of their semi-final tie.
Suleiman Alphonso Omondi, a 29-year-old Kenyan living in the capital Nairobi's Embakasi neighbourhood, hanged himself in his Arsenal shirt after the match.
"We were watching the match at Bamba 70 pub, and when Arsenal was defeated, Suleiman just walked out in protest and he was crying," Calvin Otieno, one of his friends, said.
"We didn't know he was going to hang himself until this morning when we received the reports and came here to find his body at the balcony," Otieno said outside the deceased's home.
Arsenal slumped to a 3-1 defeat at home in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, capping a disappointing season for the Gunners who were already out of the Premier League title race early in the season.

I really can't believe I missed Christina's party. :(
I love Fugly and I miss them very much. And this picture makes me happy because getting the Fuggs to town (for reasons besides clubbing) is virtually impossible (without anyone driving some more!), let alone to a restaurant, and yet they're there for me. AWWWWWWWWWWWW.
Clearly I'm trying to feel better about not celebrating Christina's birthday, so let me be okay!
Anyway, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTINA!!! Treasure being 18 years old, it's the best time of your life everrrrr, for suuuuuure. LOVE YOU!!!!! We are SO going to have a Fugg's girls' night out when I get back!
Let me just say that JAY IS THE BEST. EVEEEEEEEER. BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO MANLY ON FRIDAY TO LEARN TO SURF, all courtesy of her!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU SO SO SO MUCH BETTY HOW JIE LIN FOR FULFILLING ONE OF MY THINGS TO DO BEFORE I DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Soon we'll be hot surfer chicks. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY. Love you love you LOVE YOU!!!! |

1) I got a job a little while back. I didn't realise the commitment it needed when I took it. But I really like it there. I'm gonna have to quit soon on the account of me wanting to enjoy the rest of my holidays, but I'm really sad to leave. Plus all the yummy perks! Aargh.
2) I also got eyelash extensions on a whim. @#$%?*@#!/ It was so bloody uncomfortable. I don't know how ah lians do it, but oh maaan. The things people do for beauty.
3) I don't what it is about Aussies, but why do they only seem attractive when outside of Australia? Once back in the motherland, it's like, URGH. Not attractive. |

I haven't been blogging anything much as of late. Pity. I was looking through some of my past blog entries from the times waaaaay before I met Ryan, and there so much that happened that I completely forget about. It's funny looking back at your life, at what you were before. All I can say is, I'm glad with the person I've become. There were things I've done and said which I do and don't regret, but life turned out good. Sometimes life has a funny way of working itself out. Or sometimes even, God has a beautiful way of giving you the strength you require, just as you feel at your weakest.
Enough of being all philosophical and shizz.
Today I went for lunch with the bestest guy friend, Bryan! By the way he is going to win the lottery tomorrow and I am going to have lunches on him from now on. :) ANYWAY. B asked me what my resolutions for the new year were.
Riiiiight. Because it's the new year. Where did December go?! It went by so fast I didn't even have time to sleep off all that late nights and parties and... whatever the hell else I was doing. You know, I didn't even find the time to unpack my suitcase since I came back. And yet I still have people I have to meet, things to do, a gazillion photos/videos to put up.
Well anyway, I'm going to come up with my resolutions for the year! Better late than never (which is more often the case as of late. :S). And I'd better write it here so that it would be more official and thus I wouldn't slack off on them by mid-year.
Resolutions!
1) Sleep EARLIER, preferably NOT AT 5AM.
Okay. My living habits are kind of screwed up right now. Bear with me.
2) Remember to wish people on their Birthdays
Because I have a nasty habit of procrastinating, and before you know it, it's not their birthday anymore. So anyway, if your birthday was in the past few months and I forgot to wish you, SORRRRRRY. My life is hectic, to say the least. Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
3) Find a JOB
Because I spend waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than I should. For example, Exhibit A: the Chanel. Exhibit B: My weakness for good concert tickets/theatre productions.
4) Drink LESS
Because I am only 18, and my liver is not made of steel. Yet.
5) Get good grades, aim for a EUROPEAN EXCHANGE PROGRAMME, baby!
6) Be nice. Even to morons people who I don't agree with.
It's funny. I always thought that if you don't like a person, the worst thing you could possibly do is to be nice to them. Because that would be being a hypocritical bitch. And it's called backstabbing. At least when you ignore a person you don't like, you're honest. But gradually, I realised that a lot of people don't like that. They'd rather be deceived and pretend that everything's okay. Well anyway, that's another story for another day. I guess this year I'm going to be nice to everyone and everyone will be much happier.
7) Be a better Catholic
I am going to UNDERSTAND my faith. Deepen it. Why they do things the way they do it. It's sad to see kids leave the church nowadays, just because they simply don't understand their faith and thus don't love it.
8) Stop being LATE
I know I annoy the hell out of everyone over this. I'm going to try to be on time!
9) Actually answer SMSes
OKAYOKAY I'M SORRY PEOPLE! It's gonna get better! I hope.
Okayokay. Enough of that. My life right now needs a To-Do List.
- Tidy my room
- Unpack!!!
- Contact the Coldplay concert tickets people
- Meet James! OMGXYZ STOP FORGETTING WOMAN!!!
- Put up pictures/videos
- Jay's Birthday Present
- Plan anniversary with Ry
- Meet B again before dreaded NS!
- FIND A JOB
- Meet Visaaaa for prataaaa
- Buy a wintercoat
- Conquer Tap Defence! Rawr!
- Get watch fixed
I doubt that's all but I can't think anymore. I'm going to sleep. 4.40am. Wow, I'm sticking to my resolutions already. :-/ |

[Dec. 31st, 2008|03:48 pm] |
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne.
And surely ye'll be your pint stoop
And surely I'll be mine
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet
For auld lang syne.
No one really knows the meaning of the song. But most see it as a song about loss, but also about love - a hope that you'll see the same people you love next year.
See you in the new year. |

[On his video time capsule made 50 years before]
"It's been...50 years...50 long years, since I've done this. Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to as a measure of a successful life, then...some would say I'm a failure. The important thing is, not to be bitter over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past... and recognise that every day won't be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair, remember, it's only in the black of the night, you can see the stars... and those stars will lead you back home. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble and fall. 'Cos most of the time the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you'd get everything you wish for. Maybe... you'd get more than you ever could've imagine. Who knows where life will take you? The road is long, and in the end, the journey is the destination."

I've been tagged by Maxine some time back.
( I love. )
So. After doing this I think it's only apt that I pay lip service to the people I care for and love a lot. Being away really makes you realise who are the ones who truly love you, and truly care for you. Even though you're away, you know your friendship is still solid as ever. I've met new friends in Sydney, and really, nothing compares to the old ones. The ones that got your back and you have theirs. I just wanted to say how grateful I am for knowing you, because you have shaped part of me, and have fit a piece into the jigsaw puzzle of my life. Agape is supposed to be the purest form of love; Wikipedia says it is divine, unconditional, self-sacrificing, active, volitional, and thoughtful love. Not many people have this in their lives, but I feel so blessed to know that I agape, and I am agape-d. So thanks, to those who have stood by me all these years, who love me no matter where I am, what I do, or where I'll be. You really don't know how much each of you mean to me. Even those people not mentioned above (aka the loved ones without blogs!). You guys are really really important to me.
Also, I want to especially let my sister know that I love her so much, and I MISS HER! Two weeks apart is TOO LONG. Without her, I don't know what I'd do. She is honestly the most wonderful person I've ever met. And it helps that we have the same thought wavelength. She's the better, prettier version of me. :) |

| QANTAS SUCKS!!! |
[Nov. 23rd, 2008|08:22 pm] |
You know, I used to love flying on airplanes. Until I had to take Qantas. Qantas is so lousy, MY FLIGHT HAS BEEN DELAYED BY THREE AND A HALF FREAKING HOURS. They have robbed me of THREE AND A HALF FREAKING HOURS with my loved ones, and THREE AND A HALF FREAKING HOURS of savouring the last moments I have in Sydney. I have been in the Sydney airport for FOUR AND A HALF HOURS now, just rotting away and saying bye bye to my money because the only thing that I can do that doesn't remind me that I am robbed of THREE AND A HALF FREAKING HOURS of my life is to shop. You really don't want to know how much I have spent so far. Do you know what Qantas gave me in compensation? A $20 food voucher, for my dinner. So my THREE AND A HALF HOURS are just worth $20. I should be getting half my airfare back! At the very least! Hell, I'd even settle for a free flow of krispy kreme. IMBECILES.
Oh, by the way I just found out that my has been further delayed another half hour. Okay, is there some kind of joke going around on 'which airline gets delayed the longest' or something? Because IT'S REALLY NOT FUNNY. FOUR I-AM-SO-CLOSE-TO-SAYING-THE-F-WORDING HOURS!!!!!!!! I am THIS close to flying the damn place myself if no one is going to fly me there.
This past few days have been the worst few days of my life.
And if you didn't get the moral of this story, QANTAS SUCKS.
(Bryan, if you read this I MAY have to postpone our lunch to Tuesday because QANTAS SUCKS AND WON'T LET ME GO HOME!!!!) |

I saw Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman yesterday!!!!!! We were at the premiere of Australia and OH MAN NICOLE IS GORGEOUS. Also seen was Jennifer Hawkins (last year's Miss Universe, hailing from Australia), the Veronicas, Keith Urban, Guy Sebastian, an Australian Idol contestant and judge, Geoffrey Rush (Barbossa in PotC!), some Home and Away dude, and of course Baz Luhrmann. You know it's times like these I'm so grateful for Sydney, the opportunities here are amazing. I'm surprising myself; I think I'm going to miss Sydney when I go back home for the holidays.
Anyway, you know I rarely ever get genuinely shocked. Most of the time I just get annoyed/amused/pissed off. And I have seen some really bizarre things. Like a woman was unicycling along the main road one day. But haven't been so shocked as when I was buying bubble tea at a bubble tea shop last week. It went something like this:
Me: "Hi, could I get a regular jasmine milk tea please? With toppings of...half herbal jelly and half pearls?"
Bubble tea person: "I'm sorry, we are out of pearls."
Me: [blinks, dumbfounded] "...I'm sorry...what?"
BTP: "We are out of pearls."
A bubble tea place. Out of pearls. Pearls MAKETH the bubble tea! No pearls no bubble in the tea! Okay I guess I should cut them some slack, because I still remember one havoc night at the restaurant we're it got waaaaaaaaay too crowded and we ended up running out of crepes. At a creperie. So yeah.
Oh and another thing. I came home one day carrying heavy groceries. I was passing the living room to get into the kitchen and the Indian guy housemate was there watching something on his computer and didn't even bother to help with my bags. I didn't care anyway, I don't like him very much. So when I was packing my groceries in the kitchen, all of a sudden I heard, "I can show you the woooooorld, shining shimmering splendiiiiid...tell me princess, when did you last let your heart deeeciiiiiiide..." I tell you my jaw nearly dropped to the floor. This is a grown man, watching Aladdin, not offering help because he was so engrossed with Aladdin! ALADDIN.
Sometimes I think the world is going to fall apart.

Okay I HAVE to blog about this. I don't know if any of you have seen Christina Aguilera's new look. She got bangs!!! And she straightened her hair!!! I'm sorry, but the Lady GaGa look just doesn't do it for me. And neither does the whole new techno-like sound either. That genre is best left to Britney, Kylie and Lady Gaga. You know, the ones who can't sing. Today I heard Britney's Womanizer for the first time. And you know how it made me feel? Sad. People actually try to pass it off as music?! She doesn't even sing on it. Just chants the same thing over and over again. It's not even music anymore. Just a blatant attempt to makes sales out of shit.
I'm like, the BIGGEST Christina Aguilera fan you probably know, and you know I adore her so so much. But her new song, Keeps Getting Better? Well, she has hit a low point in her career, I think. Futuristic/techno is really really not quality music and never will be. For the first time in years, Christina is actually comparable to Britney (It pained me a lot to say that). But hopefully it's only a temporary phase. Her new album is a greastest hits kinda thing and there are only two new songs on it, so hopefully her concept together with the next album would be SO SO much more meaningful and of quality.
Well anyway, I was looking through some pictures of Christina Aguilera's red carpet appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards and I saw this comment:
"I LOVE Christina!!! Nice to see her with a curvier figure, the stick figure look is so last season."
HAHA AWWWWWWWWW! Now I just need to gain 50kg, and get a boob job to be in fashion! :)
On a more inspiring note, Pink's new song, Sober, is so intense it really reaches out into your heartstrings and pulls it. I only fully appreciated it on the second listen, but the lyrics. Damn, that girl can write. And the way she sings it. Like she means every word. She's actually singing something for a reason. Back to what music should be about. Saying something, expressing youself.
Glad to see that the music industry is not completely falling apart. :-/ |

[Nov. 6th, 2008|10:40 am] |
Okay, I haven't talked about my life in a while so let me just give you a quick rundown on the important things!
- It is study week, and I am trying to study. And by that I mean that I am studying 10% of the time, and 90% of the time busy being guilty for not studying.
- I am getting my first debit card! YAY. Bye bye begging my mum for her credit card, and bye bye to rushing to a sistic/ticket master counter at 9am in the morning just so I can get concert tickets before they are sold out.
- I am going to drastically change my hairstyle! After Miss Ho's concert, of course. I'm so bored with having the same hair for 2180726391 years.
- Speaking of Miss Ho, I MISS BALLET. :( I feel like such a major slob without ballet. I NEED YOU MISS HO! :( :( :(
- I think I'm putting on a lot of weight from eating and not exercising. Oh and not to mention I'm slowly being able to finish the huge servings here. OH NO!!!
- 
I bought a Chanel bag! It's probably going to be my first and last time so just let me camwhore a bit with the shopping bag lah. Haha! Okay what happened was that Chanel was going to increase their prices on the classics by 20% on the 1st of November, and so I decided to take a plunge and buy it now before I have to pay a million bucks or something for a Chanel in the future. I doubt you're interested, but I got a black classic baguette (or east/west flap bag) in calfskin. <3
- Pink (the singer, not the colour) is coming down here in June!!!! Okay, she was here a couple of days ago but I didn't get to see her. So I am die die going to go to her concert in June! You know, it's so crazy. The tickets for 20-something concert dates went on sale last Friday, and by Monday it was ALL SOLD OUT. Luckily, they opened another date up so tomorrow I am going to CHIONG!!! *puts on warface*
- Oh by the way, I've been harbouring a mild lesbian affection for Pink. Hahahahaha Ryan's going to kill me!
- OH MY I JUST FOUND THIS!!!!
Watch from 5:45 onwards. OH MY!! YES YES COME TO AUSTRALIA/SINGAPORE!!!! YES!
- Oh and I've been harbouring a desire to be a ROCKSTARRRRRR as well! Black eyeliner + cool hair + rockstarrrr attitude = AWESOMENESS.
Like so. HAHA! :)
- Oh oh I know some of you are in the midst of A level exams now, GOOD LUCK!!! And good luck to those who are going to have exams VERY soon, otherwise known as the uni kids. AND good luck to some of my friends who are being shipped off to army soon! The sooner it starts, the sooner it ends. :)
- Ryan FINALLY doesn't mind me getting a tongue piercing! YAY!!! Now to convince my parents...
- Oh oh I think I know a real life Marissa Cooper. SCARY! :-/
- YAY to Obama's victory! I think everyone else in the world was rooting for Obama, the only McCain supporters were pretty much some silly Americans that were too blinded by their 'conservatism'. Anyway, to a new hopeful future, and to mark the end of the disaster that was the Bush Administration, a song from my new girlie crush:
If things improve in America, I might just reconsider my citizenship there. :P |

What if I told you that there's a way you could figure out who your true love was?
Click here first and just listen with an open mind, even if it's just for a couple of minutes.
I know that a whole bunch of my friends are reading this, and I know that some of you have taken relationships to the next level. I really love you guys so much, I just want the best for you, and everyone deserves the best. Everyone deserves to find someone who loves them unconditionally; agape them. And by this you should let a person fall in love with yourself- and not your body. Some of you have been a relationships for a long time, and if the person is really the one, then you'd love that person so much that you'd wait for them until you actually do declare yourselves together forever. Because doing it says that you are giving yourselves wholeheartedly to someone with your body. And if you haven't made the vows yet, you are lying to both yourself and the one that you love. Besides, sex complicates a relationship. From what I have noticed, couples fight so much more, and get hurt so much more. So please try to love yourself, and respect yourself.
If you are doing it, please stop. It's not too late. For the sake of yourself and your relationship. And because I love you so much. I know you can because we are not animals with no self-control.
But I just want to let any of you know that if you think otherwise or choose not to take the advice, I will not love you any less nor will I lose any respect for you. And I will always be there for you if you need me. |

Today was really cold. I heard it was 12 degrees celsius out, even though it's well into spring, with summer not far off. I didn't mind though, because nothing feels more lovely and comforting than a warm coffee or tea in this weather, and tucking yourself into the blanket.
The wind was really strong. I realised today that I've never experienced such strong winds in Singapore like this, in all my 18 years. For a little moment there I felt blessed to be in the presence of such magnificent winds. It was still cold and the winds made it even more so, but sometimes I am in awe of nature.
And I saw a rainbow on the way home. I've seen tiny, vague, barely there rainbows before. They're slightly faded, but you know they're there. But this rainbow I saw today was huge and as clear as day. I never realised rainbows could have such clarity. And it was set against the backdrop of the Sydney CBD skyline and I daresay the width of the rainbow was as thick as one of those buildings in the city. The loud and bright burst of colour in the evening sky was the most glorious spectacle to uphold, especially after a long day at school.
When was the last time you discussed the weather? |

At approximately 9:03pm Australian Eastern Daylight Savings time, Thursday, 16th October 2008, I finished The OC Season 3.
This is a very momentous occasion as I have been wanting to complete this season ever since the last episode of it came out, on 17th May 2006, if I remember correctly. I remember skipping the next day of school back in sec 4 because of this episode (Okay, I just didn't want to go to school, but it was PART of the reason!). Because this last episode of The OC Season 3 is the episode that marked the demise of Mischa Barton's character, thus marking the end of the 'Core Four', and subsequently the approaching conclusion of the entire show itself. Because Ryan Atwood BELONGS to Marissa Cooper, and without Marissa Cooper on The OC is like cereal without any milk.
Okay, I didn't plan to write that much. But the outcome of the show still saddens me. If only they had not lost faith in the show. At least now they're learning their lesson with Gossip Girl, they're trying not to mess this one up like how they did with The OC.
To me, The OC is still the greatest show ever. It's legacy lives on in my heart.
(By the way, you know Christmas is coming, but I haven't declared that Chrismukkah is coming! :D)
Oh, you know. Back on November 17th 2007, I blog an entry where I said, "And I hate computing. Who gives two shits about system development life cycle? Is that even computer-related?!". Guess what.

I have already sounded my Christmas siren in July, and even though my friends were NOT amused, Australia seems to be receptive! As of the end of September, CHRISTMAS GOODIES ARE OUT!!!!!!! :D Yay!!! Not even Halloween, okay! It's the big X to the M to the A to the S! Finally, someone shares my enthusiasm. On Friday, Germaine, and sister and I went to this huge Christmas warehouse, where they had heaps of Christmas goodness! I've gotten them reindeer ears ready. :D YAY! I am in the mood for doing something huge this Christmas! Hee.

Okay, I haven't blogged in forever (meaning 3 weeks) and Teresa reminded me that today, so today's blog is brought to you by Teresa! Haha.
ANYWAY. Today is a good day! I just found out that the Australian dollar is doing badly. WOOHOO, baby. More SGD purchasing power, baby!
Okay, just found out that Singapore is officially in recession today too so maybe it's not that good a day. Plus I had a computer crisis where my computer didn't turn on and I panicked and didn't go for my friend's birthday Korean bbq and looooong story. But I'm blogging now so it's okay, matter resolved. Oh, and I just found out I have a quiz to do before Monday. Not that great a day.
But no one cares about today! People care about WHY I DISAPPEARED FOR THREE WEEKS *gasp* *shock* *horror*. Okay, no they don't but let's pretend they do. And technically I didn't disappear, I was just too busy preparing/being in/suffering withdrawal symptoms from SINGAPORE!
You know I had so much fun there I really didn't want to come back here. I did up this Die-Die-Must-Eat food list for Singapore and I didn't manage to complete it. Uneaten food includes ah balling, mee pok (only stole a bite from David), carrot cake, among others. BOO. But I did manage to cover lots of ground, managing to tick off an average of 4 foodstuff every day. Not to say that Sydney doesn't have good food, it's just a bit pricey so it's better to stay in and cook. But not anymore, seeing that inflation hit Singapore and Aussie dollar went down! Sweetnessssss.
(Oh by the way Threadless is having a GIRLY TEE SALE!!! I'm such a Threadless whore.)
Okay I'm tired about talking about Singapore. Because I love my friends/family and places/food in Singapore and all, but it's really not thaaaaaaaat exciting/pretty place to be. Even though I didn't want to leave.
You know honestly, this week hasn't really been that exciting at all as I have fallen severely sick and thus most of the time has been spent in bed, so yeah. Oh, some of my mid-semester results came out and I did good. But yeah.
A more exciting post next time. Meanwhile, you can check out facebook photos of Bondi-di and glimpses of my time in Singapore-pore. Off to shop at Threadlesssssss. |

Today was spent at Bondi Beach. Pictures on Facebook soon. Water was so clear and beautiful, but the water was bloody freezing and the waves were so ferocious I nearly drowned (and that's saying a lot, I've been swimming since forever) and thought I was gonna die. :( It's beach days like today that make me miss Club Med a hell lot. Sorry people, I really wanted to get souvenirs for everyone but Bondi is REALLY overpriced. Tiny keychains for 8 bucks, what the hell.
We spent like, 4 hours tanning and later in the evening we bumped into Anson and Cyndy, a couple studying at Taylor's College, and it went something like this:
Me: "Do we look darker? [smiles hopefully]"
Anson + Cyndy: "No."
Me: "Whaaaaaaat!"
Maxine: "Do you know, we spent the entire day under the sun!"
Anson: "No matter how much you tan in Australia, you won't get darker. Australia's sun is lazy... just like the people."
Sounds like Jay's perfect beach to me.
School is so irritating. I cannot look forward to going back because I have a 1500 word Macroecons report due the very day I come home. And no, I haven't started.
And right now,
I wish I could follow you
