I'm having nights out and I'm at Jurong Point now. We just ended an exercise and I'm so tired that I could lie down and sleep now. But I felt that I just needed to get out of camp. I'm sitting at MosBurger looking over at KFC and I just saw this guy go up to the salesgirl of the KFC ice-cream counter and ask for her number. Surprisingly, she gave it to him. I could never do something like that. You could say that its because I don't have the guts. I choose to believe that its not my style.

So anyway, because of the recent buzz of activity, I haven't had time to spend quality time with God or even to update this blog. But I am working on it!

Charis had a match on Sunday with MPCC. Having not played soccer for more than a month, we were desperately lacking in match fitness and basic ball control. Our weak point, the center of midfield was even worse than usual! Every goal kick that we had ended up with the opponents and every time we moved forward to attack, we would be cut down before we reached their penalty area. We were 1-0 down at halftime because of what I thought was a poor decision by the referee. I was trying to intercept the ball from this guy in midfield. It was a waist high pass to him and while I was jumping to meet the ball with my foot, I felt him push me such that the ball went between my legs. This allowed him a free run on goal and the assist. There were also the crazy tackles from behind which went unpunished.

In the second half, I put 5 men in midfield but we still couldn't hold the shape. We let in the second goal from a downward header. I managed to pull back one from long distance in the middle of their half but although it was a beautiful goal, we couldn't push for the equaliser. Their striker managed to dribble past 2 of our players to score their third goal.

The guy who asked for the KFC girl's number is now smsing and she is replying from her counter. They are barely 5 metres from each other... (-_-)
I just bought 2 new books. 'Tuesdays with Morrie' & 'The 5 People You Meet in Heaven'. I'm so broke now. I'm still waiting for my reimbursement for the drum skins from church.

::: Song of the Day :::
If you'd like to walk a while
We could waste the day
Follow me into the trees
I will lead the way

Bring some change up to the bridge
Bring some alcohol
There we'll make a final wish
Just before the fall

Promise I will be forever yours
Promise not to say another word
(Here forever deep beneath the dirt)
Nevermind whats done is done
Always was a lucky one

Watch the sunrise all alone
Sitting on the tracks
Hear the train come roaring in
Never coming back

Laying quiet in the grass
Everything is still
River stones and broken bones
Scattered on the hill
| foo fighters - still |
