Hamilton Wins the Grand Prix

What can I say, being the youngest Grand Prix winner, he deserves a standing ovation. Round of applause please.

I’m not actually a big fan of Hamilton. Word of mouth says he’s snobbish, but at least he proved his arrogance’s worth. Me on the other hand, have nothing at hand. Oh boy, let’s not judge others ok?

I’m a big fan of McLaren though. Having said that, I don’t gave up on the sport ages ago. It’s so frequent, it’s no longer a privilege to watch on my good Sunday.

I remember in the old days when Hakkinen was the KGB of Formula 1. I memorized every single track, every corner, every chicane, hairpins and the ideal speed, entering and exiting corners. I could even draw you the tracks.

Why Lee Chong Wei Stumbles

If you missed the game, don’t bother. It was a lousy match. Lee Chong Wei lost (21-12, 21-8) and bagged home a silver.

While most of you are sure to bash on Lee Chong Wei’s bad performance, I’d like to do the opposite. I’d like to thank him. Terima kasih Lee Chong Wei. You’ve inspired others.

• If he won, he’d bag home RM1 million of rakyats money and be a total crap thereafter.
• If he won, he might get a beating from the China crowd (it happened before ok!)
• If he won, BAM will be so proud of him and would march him everywhere.
• If he won, medias will have unlimited coverage of him. We, eventually will get sick of him.
• If he won, Ali Cafe and Sunway Lagoon will appoint him as an ambassador.
• If he won, we’d be complacent.
• If he won, no one will need to avenge for the next Olympics.
• If he won, he’d put his successor in distress (LeeCW can, why can’t you?)
• If he won, he’d make the Sports Minister losses more hair

So why did he lose? 2 Reason; Away and Stage Fright.

Let’s not forget, the Olympics is hosted by China. And obviously Lin Dan had the upper hand in every aspect, including ground, crowd and support. If they were hosted elsewhere, I’m convinced it’d be a different story. It’s like the tally for Thomas Cup 2008, where Lee Chong Wei beats Lin Dan.

If you saw the match, you’d wonder why is Lee Chong Wei so heartless, spiritless and demotivated? Easy. Because China supporters turned up in enormous number and filled the stadium with cheers and noise. It’s enough to give anyone a cold sweat. Although it’s no excuse to be unprepared (mentally), he is still a human and stage fright happens.

Lee Chong Wei, thank you for the Silver medal and better luck next time.

The Hiccup Story

I have a terrible sickness, hiccup. When it reigns upon me, it’ll last for a week (minimum). But that alone couldn’t stop me from working.

Today, I had a meeting with my client at Nilai. It’s an hour drive from my house. I made a quick pit stop for a mineral water, in hope that it’ll subside, provided I drank a lot of water. Unfortunately, no. (more…)

Spain vs Italy Screenshot

Spain emerged as the forth team to qualify for the latter stage. I anticipated a good game between these 2 giants, but it was half dramatic compared to Russia vs Netherlands. Italy did well till the end, unfortunately they stumbled during the penalty shoot-out. Anyway here’s some screenshots of the game (with Malay caption).

Lose 10kg In 30 Days

This may come to you as bragging, but hey, I don’t care.

My weight watch in 2007;

I was about 77kg and lost 12 kg in 1 months (to 65kg). I needed to lose weight so I can run faster and lower the risk of ruining my knees (due to intense change of pace). Almost every part of my body shrunk. My waist was 36 inch and down to 31 inch.

First and foremost, an immense amount of determination is required. If you are half-hearted and impatient , just stay away, be fat and shut up about it . I can safely say, you’ll see the results in 1 months. Get a partner and lose weight together.

Did I say 10kg? Well, I meant any amount of kg, as long as you do it right. If you’re categorized as obese, you’d lose a lot more. (more…)

Whom Should I Support for Euro?

I meant to write the cons of fuel hike, but I think you all know the drill, harga barang naik etc. So I’m just gonna write about the most talked topic, EURO 2008.

Friend J : Aku sokong Spain!
NoktahHitam : On what basis?
Friend J : I think they rock.

Friend Q : German all the way!
NoktahHitam : Did you know Podulski was born in Poland?
Friend Q : No.. was he?

Friend M : Portugal babe! I want to see Figo.
NoktahHitam : Figo retired la.
Friend M : Really?

How do you support a team?

Based on Nationality. You weren’t was born there. So hush.
Based on Country. Almost all have never been to the country they supported.
Based on Education. Most would say England, but they didn’t qualify. WTH.
Based on Popularity. It’s football, it’s a sports. Not American Idol or AF.
Based on Players. Looks? Skills? I don’t know.

Some of you, don’t even know how to kick a football, have yet to own a football or watch football so you appear manly. In all honesty, football is a game to play, not to watch. So sleep early, when you wake up, Google the results. Go to office and ask everyone around,”Did you watch the match? It’s interesting right?”, so you are seen as the GUY.

I hate the FRANTIC football fans. If you support a team, you don’t have to talk about this player, that player, that team, this team, England bodoh, German tak reti main bola, Turkey slow. Let me ask you something, how far did your football skills take you? Wakil Rumah? Wakil Sekolah? Wakil Daerah? or only Wakil Diri?

So shut up. I don’t want to know. If I need to know everything there is about a player or a team, I’ll Google it. Okay?

ps: There, I’ve said it  

It Wasn’t Your Fault Chelsea Lost, Terry

Please don’t rub your victory on my face

It was the closure of Champions League between 2 English giants, Chelsea vs Man Utd. I watched it with David at Steven’s Corner. 65% were Man Utd fans, 30% anti-Man Utd and 5% Chelsea. I’m pretty sure we’d be beaten to pulp if Chelsea won.

Man Utd was obviously the better team in the first half. Ronaldo unmarked, Hargreaves playing loosely, Schole’s lateral passing and tight ass Vidic, spoiled Chelsea’s routine. Unfortunately for them, Lampard proves Chelsea are no pushovers. 1-1, the half ended. (more…)
