blue and white dream

Each time an act of terrorism rips through a place killing, it makes me cringe and wonder why is there just so much senseless violence in the world? What irks me even more was what one of the terrorist groips had to say about the attack, "Where is America, oh Anzar? Who can protect you from our strikes? Who can protect Britain, Japan, Italy and the other agents?"

This is what I have to say to them. "Do you know what will give me great pleasure? To have you all kneeling before me and having the chance to put a bullet through each of you. I have chosen the spot, just below your skull. The part linking your neck to your skull. The other thing I will so love is to have you one person at a time confined in a room 300 by 300 metres. All I need is a sniping rifle and the chance to take me time to shoot you when you are on the run. The more fear I sense in you the more satisfaction I yield. There is nothing more than the joy of seeing fear and panic in your eyes. But you know what, even if given the chance, I will not treat you that way. Because if I were to do that, it will make me no better than you. I do not want to be branded a fucking terrorist. I do not believe in your brand of justice. I know that no matter what you do, the world will not bow down to you. The people whom you killed are the true martyrs. You along with the pussies you sent out are the biggest coawards ever to set foot in civilisation. Your pathetic existence is your very own curse. Nothing you do can ever make the world join you in your misery. You defile and insult your religion by using it for your benefits. You are the true infidels. Sorry for your poor planning and dreams. Your acts will not divide us, in fact, you brought us closer."

I think this image is just so impactful. This was taken in Madrid and its of people queuing to donate blood to help the victims of the blast. So humane.

A real hectic start of the new term. I knew that this term is going to be harder than last term but never knew that it was going to be so hectic. Rushed and rushed. Was supposed to meet Jo and the rest to see the photos but had to rush off just after like five minutes cos had to rush Advertising. Let's see, everyday we had deadlines expect Wednesday? Yea, think only Wednesday was "free". Only had lots of work to rush but no deadine.

Yesterday thought I had lost my beloved pencil. Haha, yup my beloved pencil. It's not some expensive pencil or what but I had it since secondary school or JC so that pencil has lots of memories. Glad that I managed to find it back today. It was still in the Radio Journ studio.

Broadcast today was real short cos our shift has been cut to an hour. Sheesh, partly cos think Pearly and I are just beginnin to get the hang of it and are actually starting to enjoy the shift, but because of Advertising, we have to have our shift cut short. O well, maybe it's for the better.

Lots of people also falling sick these few days. Among them is Penn and Ashley. Penn looked quite jia lat yesterday. Dear, you better take care and rest well oki? Ashley also, saw her today and her lips were like quite pale and she looked really drained. She came into the conty for a while, sat down, settled a bit of Radio Journ stuff than said that she was going to rest liao. The amazing thing thing is that she can still be quite perky despite being sick. Really wonder how she does it.

Got no motivation to watch this season's Champions League. Both Juve and Man U have been knocked out. I think Marcello Lippi is going to resign at the end of the season cos that's what he said last season when they lost to Milan in the finals. To be frank, both Juve and Man U never seemed like they were capable of winning the Champions League this season. Expected Juve to get knocked the by the semis. The semis would had been the furtherest they would had gone. Not stunned also that they were knocked out by Depo afterall Depo was not too bad a team. Disappointed that del Piero is out for the rest of the season though and Lippi better not sell Nedved. Juve has already lost Davids, by selling Nedved will really signal the end of the reign of the Old Lady. the really need two new centre backs too. Why did they not go for Nesta or Cannavaro when they had the chance?? Legrottaglie is really no classy defender lor, he's no where near in fact. He's really more of a burden. To date I've no idea how he managed to represent the Azzurris. Buffon too is questionable this season. He's more like a clown than the feared goalkeeper pf last season. The keeper who was worthy of being the best goalkeeper in the world.

Man U also, so similar. They too had an excellent defence and it jut crumbled like Juve. Yes, Fergie does play weird tactics this season but the team has to shoulder much of the blame. They are really not playing they way they should. The young players are really too inconsistent and they also really need a new dependable defender. A defender who has experience and guile. It's amazing how both Juve and Man U looked so formidable just two months back. There seemed to be nothing there to stop them from yet another successful season. How things fall apart in such a short time.

On the otherhand, Arsenal has been looking increasingly impressive. They seem even better than Man U at their prime. It's been so long since we've seen a team play with beautiful football, football that Brazil used to dish out. Now the team that makes football the "beautiful game" has really got to be Arsenal. Henry and Pires seem unstoppable when they are in full flight. What is a kicked in the face is the fact that Juve were hte ones who sold Henry to Arsenal. Imagine, they could have had his talent had they known how to use him properly. Henry stayed there for at most a season before bening sold think realtively cheaply to Arsenal. At least Henry still has a heart, he said that Juve still has a special place in his heart thought football wise, it did not work very well for him. It's nice that he thinks that way.

Today's also the day for Ak's final concert. Yup, they are about to split up. Damn it, though I was prepared some way or other for their splitting to happen one of these days, but I never expected it to be so soon. Really going to miss them.
