lets go roger lets go!

go grab your no. 4 aussie open

all the way for the finals my love:)

whoop nadal's spanish arse

happy "niu" year again and i'll punch your face

im sorry to be a total wet blanket

but the whole "niu" year thing is so over-used and getting a little annoying

television, newpapers and radio broadcast are centralising their CNY campaign around the same word pun

NIU=New

whatever happened to creativity?

enough bitching for today

updates on the aussie open

Jelena the underserving no. 1 is out as expected and booted out by a young teenager Marion Bartoli.

Phew for Federer as he moves up the board into the next round

Had a close one today where he was down right from the start

Look at the intensity on his face

When he is so psyched up and excited about scoring a point, you know something is definitely wrong.

Beacause it isnt Federer to cheer and get all hyped up about one good ball

he's too cool for that

I was watching Evan Almighty on HBO last night

And interestingly, there was this part that really tugged on my heartstrings and got me thinking for a moment

God played by Morgan Freeman talked about opportunities in a prayer

People pray to be given strength, courage, patience, to be closer as a family

But have you wondered how does God give people strength or courage?

Does he plant them into your cells magically? And viola, you have courage.

Nah uh.

He presents in the form of opportunities.

Take for example, if you want courage, God offers you opportunities to show your courage, strength or whatever.

Really makes sense, especially to a non beliver in higher powers like me.

I really believe in opportunities and how they can mould you depending on how you react and handle the situation and i hope when i am given one, i will step up to the plate and do what i am supposed to do.

Well, the "Niu" year is gonna come in another two hours time

and ive been eating non stop since i got home from hall on friday

ive been really deprived of food in hall cause the nearest canteen has disgusting unplatetable food and i really am too lazy to walk to get food anyway.

so i always end up eating cereal, cookies or whatever i brought from home the previous week.

So whenever friday dawns, i have no quams about going hungry cause my mum has a knack for stocking up food at home and buying yummy snacks

This year, she bought heart shaped bak kwas instead of the normal coin shaped ones that my sister likes

Personally, i prefer the large square ones cause its a bigge serving and so you get more kick out of eating that huge one instead of the cute small and round ones

I guess my sister likes that one more because it's more convenient to eat

But anyway, the hear shaped bak kwas are so cute.

Never mind about my huge appetite and not getting any kick out of just eating one of those,

the cuteness of it alone is just enought to get me picking up another one and another one and another one.

i comfort myself by saying that all theses calories will be lost when i get back to the damn hall on wednesday

self denial.

haha

enjoy youself peeps

p.s: Dear chelsea, i know you are like mugging away right now, but i hope the pictures of my cute bak kwa can cheer you up. Dont be sad. But then again, you cant eat it. But you are in canada surrounded by so many cute ang mors. I'd take that over food anyday. So i guess, your "niu" year is more happening. So stop complaining. Tsk.

work your magic once more

Roger "the magic man" Federer is back!

whooped Marat Safin to clinch a 3 set victory in the third round of the Aussie Opens

i havent seen him play with such conviction in a long time

but after that match, and mind you, Marat Saffin is one hardcore baller himself

im so sure the ice cool, skillful, calm faced playing Federer is so back

till the day i return to the damn hall 8, i'll be rooting and screaming for you.

and i watch tennis like its a wrestling match, i literally scream and shout

Speaking of Marat Saffin,

he was such an entertainment throughout the whole match.

Marat is famous for wrecking his tennis racquet

and throughout the match he was trying to control his temper, slamming, throwing his racquet around, but never really breaking his racquet

The commentators were like "ooh, is he gonna break it this time?"

Then came the final straw when he was serving for the crucial set.

a few seconds after the second serve, the empire decides to call for a "foot fault"

he was so freaking pissed he dropped his racquet and went to confront the man

Marat: "Just because you wanna appear on TV for 1 second, you decide to be funny and call for a foot fault after i have done the serve??!!"

touche

Over to the ladies

ANNA INVANOVIC is OUT!!

woohoo

i have never been a fan of her

although i think she is more deserving of the world number 1 than jelena who is the current world number 1.

her hand pumping and fist throwing with a glare at her opponents just turns me totally off.

oh gawd. i wished everyone reading this knows what i mean

but it is probably greek to most of you.

just look at the picture below and you'll get a hint of what i mean.

Tennis is so much fun

i've been playing alot of tennis in school with Rizal and Gay, my only tennis khakis around.

Kinda sad, but i cant seem to find people who know how to play or at least try to learn

im not really gd at it too, but we can always learn together

Rizal is also currently training my strength with crazy gym workouts twice a week too

Im really glad he's there as i havent done a good kick ass gym training in a long long long long long long long long while.

you get my drift

i will be perspiring after every set and after the session, i cant move my body for a few days.

Its way hardcore

My strength training comprises of this total body workout called cross fit training which centers around the idea of "functional training"

it really pushes my body and mind to the extreme

i got to try this small yet potent contraption called the "kettle bell" which worked my whole body in one swinging motion.

And also, i got to do dips using Roman Rings.

Real hardcore huh??

and im starting to see improvements already.

yay!

but water fitness is still a problem for me.

probably not the fitness, its getting to training which would in turn determine my water fitness.

i am still trying to work out a plan

it sucks to train alone.

and i feel so alone.

period.

(im trying to stop myself from saying more)

i need to talk to miss lim or mr sng soon before i spiral downwards more

i just checked my marathon placings.

and i wanna spit at it

********************************************************************************

anyway, i was just thinking, its totally random

but if i were to be given a special power for a day, what would i want???

i gave this question a long and hard thought

and came up with telekinesis

i really wanna know whats on your mind

its really bugging me
_ _ _

the last one, i promise

sorry Kumar

its just too damn pretty

last pair.

i am hoping

true colours

everyone wanted me to taste their poison food
they claim i have a "strong stomach"
:-(

just for 5 months!!

Bye Wee Wee!

Although you will be only gone for 5 months, you will be nevertheles dearly missed by yours truly within this short span of time

I hope you enjoy yourself over there and do what you set out to do (meet many cute ang mor guys who happens to be a vampire incidentally???!!)

Sorry i couldnt be there to send you off or anything cause im stuck in stupid boon lay which is the polar opposite of changi

I know you'll miss my big 21st, but i know you'll make it up to me with a big ass present from Sweden or Europe right?(i hope its not Ikea!! hahah)

anyway, this is no sad soapy departing message, but a reminder from me to you to have fun there

wear your coats, your capes, your beanies and look pretty

enjoy the weather

enjoy the cute ang mors

and tell me ALL about it when you'll back

See ya soooooonoooooon

lots of love

Jacq

its all in the mind

its gonna be a breeze
its gonna be a good 27km
its gonna be easy
wish me luck!

annoyance

bloody cheerleaders have been practicing their routine late into the wee hours since two days
ago
i would be woken up at 2am in the morning to the sound of
"hall 8! come on hall 8 lets go!"
over and over again
"one more time! one last time!"
and they do it like a million times
only that line
i remeber waking up in the middle of my slumber and the first thing i said was a series of words that should not be mentioned
even when im groggy i still hate the sound
"hall 8 come on hall 8 lets go HOME!
and leave Jacqueline alone!"
see it rhymes and its more than the one line they have
there you go
you're welcome:)
