hakan sukur started yesterday's match with a goal on the 11th sec! it was like a dream...really. the koreans hit back wif their free kick and ilhan mansiz scored another 2. the game finally ended with a 2-3 when the koreans scored another goal in 93 minutes and turkey got 3rd placing! yayyyy~!! the korean crowd was supportive and showed gr8 sportmanship...dun think singapore could show that kind of spirit if we lost...i doubt so. hope germany will win tonite...dat would teach brazil some humility. *bahh!*

Took this test while doing some magazine ads....and here are the results...heee~



All Artisans (SPs) share the following core characteristics:

- Artisans tend to be fun-loving, optimistic, realistic, and focused on the here and now.
- Artisans pride themselves on being unconventional, bold, and spontaneous.
- Artisans make playful mates, creative parents, and troubleshooting leaders.
- Artisans are excitable, trust their impulses, want to make a splash, seek stimulation, prize freedom, and dream of mastering action skills.

Artisans are the temperament with a natural ability to excel in any of the arts, not only the fine arts such as painting and sculpting, or the performing arts such as music, theater, and dance, but also the athletic, military, political, mechanical, and industrial arts, as well as the "art of the deal" in business.

period.

The game between Turkey and Senegal yesterday was terribly boring in the first half and only got more exciting when it was nearing the end. My sis and I were spotting the cute Turkish guys on teevee during most part of the gameplay...muehehe~ I supported Senegal but they lost *shucks* i'm sure my fren, Hasan, is grinning rite now. So they'll play against Brazil...bet it will be an exciting match...and not forgetting Germany and Korea who'll be playing in the semis. This year's World Cup is unpredictable...tables may turn, the Brazilians might not even go to the finals. Let's juz see.

Amidst all the soccer fun, four Palestinians were killed as Israeli army fires on Jenin market yesterday afternoon. A six-year-old girl and a 50-year-old man were the first to be struck down by the tank shells, they said. Minutes later, a six-year-old boy and his 12-year-old brother were killed when a shell burst in the same area, they said, adding that about two dozen people were wounded in the firing. And the Israelis troop claimed that they made a mistake by opening fire to the public. Yeah, rite! a mistake? Dumbasses! Who are the real terrorists here?! Read the full report here.

Was on a short 1-day holiday to a kelong in Pasir Gogok, Malaysia. I'm actually supposed to develop a website with a bunch of peeps about life in the kelong. Ratna, Mima, Tuty and me told stories and jokes while dipping our feet in the cool water. We had giggling fits. We rushed to see the sunset after a sumptious dinner of seafood noodles and steamboat. The sunset was magnificent..*MasyaAllah~*

me relaxing looking at the sea...termenong jauh gitu..heh~

I was a little tired cos only managed to get an hr sleep at the kelong overlooking the sea at about 4am. I was out fishing wif Huijie after the bbq almost the whole morning. It was much fun though we didn't catch any fish. Jk caught 5 of them...i think he's a seasoned fisherman..heh~ My body's starting to ache and tomorrow i have to go back to skool...aarggghhh! will only post the pics tomorrow...i promise!

Had a nasty stomach cramp at about 3am this morning...and only managed to sleep after 20min of gripping my stomach in pain. decided not to attend the fusion meeting this afternoon...sorry, guys. :/ i was ok yesterday....even managed to explore 3/4 of kusu island for 1/2 a day. and even survived a 2 hrs bus journey from wtc to home. hey, if you want a peaceful walk with practically nobody to disturb you, i'd suggest you go to kusu island. a bit expensive...$9 for the ferry ride. but worth the peace. heeh~ Took quite a number of pics there...though still haven't uploaded them to the pc. spent the whole day sitting down, updating my Pixelatedtheory site and watching tv. added some stuffs from my KL trip...go take a lookie.

Still feeling exhausted from my 3-days trip to KL last week. KL was fun, loved the food mostly. Didn't spend much on shopping though...the prices in the shopping centres there are soo much like in Singapore.

And then...there's the congested roads, we had to flag the taxis even @ the taxi stand, the malayBengs (ah beng melayu), hotel blackout(!!)...mcm dah serik nak pi kl lagik. It's crowded everywhere! The air there is like really bad...we're lucky that none of us is having any phobia of sorts. Housing there seems to be a problem too, and most people stay in tiny, crammed flats that look really rundown.

Of course, if you have money over there, it'll be a totally different story...hee. You'd be living like the Datuks and the Datins there. Didn't mean to put KL down or anything but Singapore's still the best for me *for now*.
