Watching prison break has enhanced my general knowledge. For example I learnt that one can short circuit a fuse by connecting a rat's tail to a circuit. For the past few days, been cranking myself up watching Austin Powers( never fail to make me laugh) especially Dr Evil and Mini me.

Did some catching up on reading, indulging in Holy Blood Holy grail now, book that supposingly inspired Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code. Well the research is quite interesting especially with the history facts, which makes me even more convinced that certain parts of history has definitely been doctored to make us believe in the greater good which obviously does not convice me much. Still a stauch atheist me.

Life is so unpredictable. though death is a taboo topic, I have decided that since one's life is so fragile and short, I am gonna pamper myself like buying clothes, bags, accessories or eating good food. Might as well taste good food before dying right. Drinking the best beer and smoking quality cigerettes. Now that is the way to savour before dying. Cheers to life.

After a month long worth of world cup action, I have come to a few conclusions.

1) Countries vie to qualify for world cup not for national pride, but so that they can be bribed by bookies.

2) Ladbrokes betting is the actual FIFA

3) Never place ur bets on Italy

4) Whenever Italy has a red card, they WILL definitely win the match.

5) Don't bet against Guus hiddink

6) Be careful of matches involving Russian, Italian and south American referees.

Today marks the end of my contact lens solution job. Finally no need to put on a smile and talk politely to people, so not me. After three days, I sold only three bottles. In total we sold 17 bottles, Christina and Siting sold a couple while the watson auntie sold a few. The target is 300 by the end of the week. Good luck folks.

Just when I thought today being my last day could end peacefully, there was a cock up at closing time when Jolene counted stock and said, 'folks we are short of two'. After toking cock here and there, it was a bit obvious that Jolene was trying to push the blame to Christina. Then again when I asked Christina whether she had count the stock physically in the morning, she said 'aiya the stock sure there mah, won't disappear rite? '. And there was when I smack my hand on my forehead. Can't blame la huh women, never do NS. Unlike me, vehicle commander in 42 SAR, learnt a few valuable lessons, number one rule "Never assume" , number two "Don't trust anyone". etc....

In the end it turned out that the so called two missing ones were actually sold to customers and that Jolene did not record it down.

" And I think to myself, what a wonderful world...."

So far so good, my bets on England and Holland has won me cash. Hopefully later Portugal can make it a hat-trick. I suppose the cash will come in handy to buy beer. My sister has brought to my attention that Cold storage sells Becks beer imported from Germany. Tried it just now and I must say it taste better than those drunk from the tap. I think after this month of world cup, my fitness will drop from the beer, ice-cream and chocolates. I am a sucker for indulgences.

Finally after four days at work, I found out who my actual boss is. Turns out that the fat ass bitch I assumed was in control ain't in charge of me after all.

Within four days, I have seen four celebrities. Tues, Henry Thia, better known as Hui ge and looking very sissy. Today, Quan Yifeng and Peter Yu, both smoking like a chimney inspite of them campaigning for quitting smoking. Not forgetting the hot babe Michelle Chia, looking as sexy as ever. I wonder who will I see next.

I am glad that jasmine has made it to the next round of singapore idol. Shall be rooting for her.

Can't wait for the opening world cup match tomorrow, time to let the booze flow again. Best part of it all, my parents will be leaving for KL in the early morning tomorrow and that means party time. Well my sister has planned to invite her frenz and mine to our house on sat to watch the games, eat pizzas, drink and play mahjong. So folks, plz msg me to inform me if you're interested so I can make preparations.

The date tomorrow is 06-06-06, the symbolic satanic numbers. It is the release of the film "The omen". It is also coincidentally the release of the examination results. Which is scarier? I don't know.

After watching the last episode of Lost 2 last night, some things become clearer but at the same time leaving behind more questions to ponder until the next season.

At least lady luck is slowly coming my way, as my next singpost job is located at Hougang mall likewise for the other job that I have to do for the hall. Just two mrt stops away from home will definitely give me the luxury of waking up later.

Feeling a bit sick. Till then, Kopi out.

I gotta admit, drinking alcohol the night before an early game is not advisable as I overslept today and had to rush down by cab. The game against Ah boy friend's team ended up 3-3 and for the first time after so long, we played a nice passing game.

As for the second game, we were up against a team who were all quite big sized and physical, my knee is injured now thanks to a strong hefty challenge from this huge uncle who tackled me but fairly. And the new signing Shahrul, Nas's cousin marked his debut with 2 spectacular strikes. The referee, who is a Police FC veterens player, advised us to not to play against the opponents we have been playing against for the past few weeks and said that if we want to improve, we should challenge his veteren team consisting of ex-national team players. Hopefully we can get the opportunity in the future to play them and learn.

My fitness as a left back is slowly picking up but the positioning awareness is still not there. I also realised that almost everyone in the team has played for at least school team level if not national age group. As for me, I can only boast of playing at Lorong Lew Lian and Potong Pasir street soccer as my creditials. Haha.

My uncle is currently in hospital after he suddenly 'blacked out' last night. I hope he is alright and will be paying him a visit at Changi hospital tomorrow.

Yippee got my IPPT silver at Maju camp yesterday. Finally I can booze without worries. Speaking of which, the 200 dollars for silver will come in handy for more beer. After running the 2.4km route, I believe it is possible to get gold at Maju if I were to train up harder because the terrain is more or less flat throughout and the route seems to be a bit shorter. I have no problems with the static stations and for only the second time in my life I ran under 11 minutes for 2.4km. I hope I can maintain this form.

Seeing the rest of the uncles doing RT or failing their IPPT gives me the chills that one day, I might be like one of them, giving pregnant moms a run for money. But I suppose its hard when you have a job and family commitments to carry out instead of training. I hope I can still be fit throughout my reservist stint. Hahah.
