..Total Football..

Every year when I come back home for my holidays, it is a must for me to watch atleast a football match at a real and proper stadium. Usually I would just go to Stadium Shah Alam or the National Stadium at Bukit Jalil. I've watched Selangor playing in a friendly against an Indonesian team and the atmosphere was awesome.

3 big teams from the English Premierleague is coming to town and there is no way in hell I'm going to miss that. Arsenal, Chelsea and the mighty sleeping giants Liverpool are going to have a friendly against our very own South East Asian champions, the Malaysian national team. For this, I think I have to buy a Malaysian kit, but damn you Nike, your jersey are almost always out of my reach. Heck, I don't think I ever had a Nike jersey. Oh, except for that old Barcelona one that I bought during my Eurotrip.

I think I only wanna buy the RM58 ticket, free seating for each of those games. I don't really mind sitting anywhere. The National Stadium was built for the Commonwealth Games, as such, any ticket holder will almost always have a nice and proper view. 58x3= RM174, I think I can manage that :)

By the way I've already passed my first exam. 3 more are coming. This always sends shiver to my spines. Have a good weekend.

..he's a Belieber..

Something I stumbled upon when I was changing my profile picture. What the hell Dol? I am disappointed.

..the halal Hangover..

Engagement day.

So one of my Bangi mates are getting betrothed this coming September. I wish you guys all the best Syamil Musaddiq and his fiancee, Dayah Jumat. Which is one of the reason why I'm going back to Moscow for my 6th year a bit later than usual, just a couple of days really. Syamil and I go way back when we were in form 1 and when I was just a fledgling nerd, reading comic books, not interested yet in girls (actually I wasn't confident yet :p ) and yes, a librarian.

Mehh. Not a bad school.

Strictly speaking, I was not a librarian, me, Syamil and the other guys were in charge of handling the PA system, playing the Negaraku and Selangor anthem and so forth during assembly and other events. It just happens that our job as Pengawas APD (alat pandang dengar) fell under the jurisdiction of the damned librarians. Anyway, during assembly, although not all of us are actually on duty at the time, I usually just sneak in and lepak2 with the guys during the assembly because I dont want to sit down on the dirty ground like all those citizens hehe. Cause you see, we have really comfortable chairs on the stage, and maybe if I'm lazy the day before, I can take time to copy yesterday's homework from my class nerd during the assembly hehehe. Wearing a different colored uniform during school is cool. Not cool is wearing pink colored uniform. Like those sissy Pembimbing Rakan Sebaya. Or those Pengawas hard asses who wears green, sort of like a frog. Well, our uniform is light-yellow, just nice right? :D

So well yeah, I've been thinking, what sort of thing should I give them as a present? I think they call it housewarming? Man, I don't really know about this shit. Lets check it out anyway.

Sanyo rice-cooker.

Zojirushi water boiler.

Breville juicer.

Sharp microwave.

Breville sandwich maker.

Cuisinart blender.



Cuisinart coffeemaker.

Well to be perfectly honest I'm not sure if these brands are available in Malaysia or not, but you know the idea. The point being is, I want to give something that they both can use for everyday stuffs, like before going to work or something. Well, any other ideas from you guys are well appreciated though. Cheers! :D

..Incompetence..

Oh yeah RMSA? Shutting this down? Really mature. I know that some of the committee really gave their all and such, but heck, since the current one isn't abolished yet, why shutting down the website? For example, I really need to check on some things dammit. Would you guys be responsible for that? Want to pay the visa shtraf for me if you are so kind?

..Crime Scene Investigation..

I've read this somewhere, so I'm not taking any credit from this. This year, 2011, there's no spring in Russia. There's winter, then it goes straight to summer. The weather was awesome starting from last week, but it was colder the past few days. My body already reacted to this, by getting sick last week if you guys recall in my last post. Now that I've recovered, I can do tons of stuff more.

This will be a very familiar site. Not complaining though.

So we're having Forensic Medicine for this week. Nope,nothing like CSI, Bones, Gerak Khas or anything, because the procedure and law are all different regarding to each nation. Nevertheless, we witnessed a post mortem procedure right in front of us , and it was intriguing. It helped that our lecturer was strict yet you can sense that he wants to help you get through the class. Plus its not that far away from our hostel, its like only a 30 minute journey by bus and metro, that is if the bus is on time.

Trying to make the education process more fun.

My parents went to Korea for a week, and they're on their way back home now. I only asked my mum to get me a t-shirt, I don't really know what kind of special souvenirs the koreans produce, so a t-shirt would be proper enough.

This is all I know about Korea. Honest! xD

It will be a 3 day weekend for us in Russia only for this week. So, enjoy! :D

..Ranbaxy Afidil..

I have sore throat and a mild case of running nose for a couple of days now. It worsened today. Temperature was normal, good appetite, no headaches, I sense that when I exhale, the air was warm. Now the inside of my nose feel ticklish,which means that I will sneeze soon, which I don't really like. Well, they say that we make the worse patients, and I think there is some truth to that. I just hope by drinking lots of water, having a rest and taking the medicine prescribed by Abah will do the trick. I don't have fever, but I don't wanna go to that stage. The end of the semester is near and I can't afford to play catch up with my classmates.

Look at the handwriting. Thats what real doctors are all about eh :p

..the first of the Seven Sisters..

I woke up sort of early today. And suddenly I had the urge to go take pictures. I just wanted to take a walk really. So what are these Seven Sisters? They are Stalinist style skyscrapers with almost the same characteristics and specs, commissioned to be build by Joseph Stalin of course, who wanted the West to know that the Soviet Union means business, and have character.



So today I only went to one of it, the main building of the Moscow State University, the most prestigious university of Russia. When my parents came here last summer, me and my sister brought them here as it is one of Moscow's main attraction. I wanted to finish visiting all Seven Sisters today, but then realized that they were too far apart and it was kind of hard to finish them all in a day. It is possible, but today was not the day for me. It was a fun experience though. I walked all the way from behind the Red Square until I actually reached Metro Oktyabrskaya. I never knew it was that near! Anyway, enjoy the pictures taken by my modest little digicam :)

From here, I started walking into the unknown, with pleasant surprises :)

Weird building. Of course a picture is a must!

Pancho David Villa.

Actually my main mission was to find a new table lamp, to cool down my laptop.

I like Ashan Gagarin a lot. Its clean, large and there's not too much people.

So I found Viet Cafe! :)
