Hockey again…

Malaysia 0 – 1 South Africa.

So near yet so far… All we need was another pathetic point but we ended up with the fraze of beating up India and losing to both Argentina and South Africa the spoilers. Just like Ohio State. The Wolverines almost for certain will get the Rose Bowl for the Big Ten but there must be a spoiler. Sigh…Life is harsh. For the Citrus Bowl, we are against Tennessee. Louisiana, which was expect to meet us in the Citrus Bowl will be up against Illinois in the Sugar Bowl. Louisiana upsetted somebody else. Another spoiler in the SEC.

On other note, I accidentally created a link to somebody else’s site. I’m still looking which line in the source code to be deleted in order to not let my visitors being forced to visit some unrelated sites. Maybe it’s because of the new tracker’s code that I’ve added to my code. Maybe I should try to find another free tracker.

I bought a bus ticket to Minneapolis today. It cost me about USD 143. I could have bought it online but instead, I decided that I needed the walking exercise. So, I walked for the Michigan Union to East Huron. Nice. As I walked through the city, I finally realize how beautiful Ann Arbor is. Before this, I thought Ann Arbor is beautiful just because of the greens in the North Campus and the romantic buildings in the Central Campus. Today, I found out why Ann Arbor is called Ann Arbor. The Main St. is marvelous, I would say it is comparable to Madison’s State St. Of course Ann Arbor don’t have the Capitol replica on a hill like Madison does but still, the mere sight of the heart of Ann Arbor is breathtaking.

It’s a hidden beauty.

I’m starting to fall in love with the town. I would hate the day when I’ll graduate from this University. No wonder my uncle don’t want to come back to Malaysia. No wonder he chooses to live in Ann Arbor. No wonder people have been saying that Ann Arbor is the best place for many to do their college year. You can go to M.I.T. or even Princeton but you’ll find that only Michigan and a few others offer the intellectual atmosphere to its apex, with a life. M.I.T. doesn’t have a stadium but Michigan does. Princeton has many Noble Prize winners but so does Michigan.

Plus, the city is not too minute and not too monstrous. It’s just nice. I love it here.

Hmmm… Nice…

There’s actually no privacy… The Big Brothers are watching you…

God… Have you all ever played the Civilization game series?

For you whom haven’t visited Earth yet, Civilization series is a game, one of the most famous turn-based strategy games. It’s was first developed by Sid Meier at Microprose. That particular game revolutionized the way gamers play games. It revolutionized the entire gaming world. Maybe I’m exaggerating. Well, it did set a new standard for the turn-based strategy game. I had played both Civ. I and Civ.II. I played those two games like it was my life. I can remember which technology needs to be found first, I know what kind of a system suits a government at a particular time and I memorized each and every unit rating point.

The year of 2001 mark another great year for Civ. game series. It is the year when Civilization 3 is released. And after a few weeks it was released, I finally have gotten my dirty hand on that game. I played it non-stop from 0400 till 0730. HAHAHAHAHAHA And my final is next week. I’m done for. Sigh…

Oooo… Ghost in the Shell’s main theme, Reincarnation is on. Adam, if you are reading this, I love that anime. Thanks for letting me watch that anime on your laptop.

I have to sleep. My biological clock is running amok. When will all this is going to end? Insomnia…pseudo-insomnia?

Starship Troopers, sucks…

Ten more days to The Lord of the Rings. Eleven more days to freedom. Twenty two more days to 2002. Over five more months to Star Wars Episode II : Attack of the Clones.
I must admit, the name sounds kind of absurd. At least Amidala looks as beautiful as ever…still, that Korean girl in my Econ101 lecture is so beautiful. She is magnificent. Her hair…her face, she so cute…I know her name…heheheh…Leena. Maybe I should take Econ 102 just to see her again for next semester. Naughty me.

One ring to rule them all…

A time of love, a time of hate, a time of war, a time of peace, a time you may embrace, a time to rephrase from embracing…

To everything turn, turn, turn, there is a season turn, turn, turn…

There is time for every purpose under heaven…

I called Tody last night just to find out what are we going to do exactly in the snow in Minnesota. He said that we are going to do some snow boarding in Indiana and spend our new in Chicago. Nice. New year eve in Chicago.

Suddenly, I am feeling so nostalgic. I remembering everything that I have felt back in Shah Alam. A lot had happened back there, more than I could cope up with. Everything was fast for me. I’m not talking academically. It’s just life. Life. Hmm..I can still remember that Ajim kept saying life sucks in class. Hmm…forget it. It’s the past. All that is important to me right now is the present and the future. Right?

Hey, the Russian Red Army Choir is nice. It is the current Russian Federation’s national anthem. Thanks to Vladimir Putin.

Alarm clock. Don’t you hate it?

Yeah, c’mon Jebai!!! Five more hours and you’ll be the guy that has stay awaken for 24 hours. C’mon, you can do it.

I hate the world but I love the world.
