I definately missed those days..
As well as i had some small 'war' with my family because they were anxious of myself coming home late as i am still in tender age.
Hey presto, today life i am currently living is void,missing from daily soccer talks.
Look at Arthur studying in London,England...he get to talk with his classmates about soccer all the day long.
Jesus christ, i am bored to death when there is no soccer discussion to begin with.
Don't lump soccer with betting together. That is all what i need for.
It is almost a week i last wrote the blog entry. I was caught up doing Microeconomics project and managed to submit on time.
I wonder i am really born to be leader. Sometimes i felt that i have some sort of leadership in my rank but yet i don't want to display it out.
What can you see in my blood? After watching Lost season 1 episode 5, i realised that i am like this Jack dude. I am just lost in the middle of the jungle needing to realise what kind of leadership i should be doing.

Opinions:
Excellent story to teach immature young people why they need to value and cherish things and their own friends.
Made by Disney/Pixar...the animation is quite good but i still prefer japanese animation's picture which is much more quality and realistic.

Death Note (Japanese Movie)
Click here for official website
I watched it last two Monday ago at The Cathay after school..When the movie ended at around 11.30pm. It seem that SMRT buses except a few bus numbers like 61 disappeared leaving SBS buses doing the final stop. Obviously,they were 'forcing' us to use nightrider bus that would operate on friday,Saturday,Sunday and public holiday after 12am.
Synopsis:
Yagami Light is a brilliant college student who, one day, finds a notebook simply titled "Death Note." Inside of this book is a list of rules and details as for the use of the "Death Note." When he realizes the power he holds, he decides he's going to make over the world. He wants to make it into a better place by killing those who do others harm. He has been nicknamed by the police "Kira." L, a brilliant detective who lives in secrecy, rises from the shadows and puts his life on the line trying to capture Light. Both L and Light believe themselves on the side of Justice, and the two match wits trying to show exactly which of them is "good" and which of them is "evil."
Opinions:Adpated from manga but the story is not exacty the same because some scenes are modified.
So far,the story is a bit slow and draggy at times.If you have seen animation,you probably think animation verison is much better than live action movie.
On top of that,Japanese film failed in one aspect....unable to make acts so nice and realistic like not using handsome guys...That is where Korean films shine the most.
I feel that Korean can do better job than Japanese for this Death Note movie although Japanese has advantage for heavy-action movies over Korean.
Rating:8/10(2 marks were minus off due to editing of story thus making a bit draggy.Given that i watched tons of movies,i think there is some standard lacking!)

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 1:36 pm During the break in the school,i was surprised and stunned to see a girl eating cumcumber and some vegetables from a transparent lunch box. Obviously,she wanted to slim down.The rest of class was eating foods that school provided.
It is better than eating nothing at least. I only thought celebrities do this only.
If you have baby fats gene,it is the best thing for you to do some make up to keep yourself look nice.No need to go and slim down..who knows the end result make yourself look more worse!
Last Friday,after class i bought original Football Manager 2007 at SGD$57.90 in Funan's PK computer.After that,i went with Jason to Changi Airport's budget terminal.
I was stunned..there is no connected link bulding from T1 or T2 to T3 aka budget terminal. You have to take free shuttle bus from T1 to T3!
It was so small and quiet unlike Terminal 1....Somemore,something is new to me is when you order from Tiger Airway, you don't need air ticket..just show your passport based on the number and you are free to enter departure area!
Good idea!
Last Saturday,i went to ECP with my friends who i have not seen for a long time since i last saw Mike and Mick since secondary school days.
Waiting for Mike to pick me up,i was surprised that it was old fashioned brown Mecedes car( i think he borrow from his father).Few years ago,i remembered he drove his father car which was Toyota Corolla.Suddenly his father car changed like that!
The moment i rode on his car,i noticed that the sound system in the car was much better than Cherlyn's in terms of treble and mid-range. I wonder what made it sound so good.
Over the Benjamin Shearer bridge, the music was blasting..it was techno....Suddenly a heavy powered motorbike that is comparable to Harely Davidson produced loud BBBBRRRR..Superb bass overtook my ear and the techno music died for a second.
Finally at ECP, i made new friends with young generation and older generation from my former primary school.
I went back home at evening...
I bought Joey Yung - Reflection of Joey's Live 2005 Concert dvd at $45.90 and it was so fantastic that whole fans in the HK concert hall loved it!
My favourite song,心淡(Sum Tam) was sang..whole fans sang together with her!!
It show that they simply love this song the most.SO AM I!
Joey set a game while she sang..What fans do is to kiss each other when the light shone on two persons.It is really nice and fun.
The dvd also show the scene before the concert on how Joey shaped herself to get ready for concert gig!
Joey Yung is truly the best female cantonese singing singer in Asia by far!

Synopsis:
Byung-doo, the No.2 man in a small-time organized crime gang, leads an aimless and wild life. Life is hard for him since he is the sole support of his mother and two younger siblings. However, when Mr. HWANG asks him to embark on a secret mission, Byung-doo realizes that this is one chance he should not let pass by. The mission is dangerous, but success would mean that Byung-doo would no longer have to worry about supporting his family...
Opinions:
Sad story for Byung-doo because his trusted friends backstabbed him for fame and money.
What you will do to someone bad,someone else will do the same thing back to you.

That is why i always do clean things all the time.Never do things that will haunt you in your lifetime which in turn will make you to do unnecessary things.

Three high school boys just formed a hip hop band are accidantaly picked to play opening act to a famous group. Stars Hayato Ichihara, Mao Inoue, Yuta Hiraoka, Tasuku Enomoto and more.
Check It Out, Yo! (a.k.a. Chekeraccho!!) is the latest in the recent trend of music-oriented teen flicks to emerge from Japan. Following in the footsteps of Swing Girls and Custom Made 10.30, in spirit at least, Check It Out, Yo! tells the story of a group of high school friends becoming seduced by their new-found love of hip hop.
Toru (Ichihara Hayato) and his three friends go to see a local rap group and come away inspired to set up their own act, with the exception of tomboyish Yui (Inoue Mao). But after their first gig is a complete disaster, the boys are forced to re-examine their approach to music - and indeed life - if they are to succeed.
But more complications arise when Toru falls for another rap enthusiast - the older Nagisa - much to Yui's dismay, who has been keeping her true feelings for him bottled up for fear of ruining their friendship. Set against the beautiful, tropical locales of Okinawa, Check It Out, Yo! is chock full of toe-tapping music and a youthful joie de vivre that is almost impossible to resist.
Opinions:
Nice music..i even follow their beats and ran crazy as if i am hip-hop singer.*grin*

Tony Del Piero wrote and posted at at 7:25 pm I was about to sleep early today(15th October).
Suddenly, I can't describe the feelings i have for a moment.Something is missing.
Of course a girl can fill my void soul up but there isn't one.
Do u know crying is good?Because it ease your feel for a moment and you are not lonely at all.
Sadly,i listened cantonese music that were largely sang by Nicholas and it really reduce my loneliness.Nicholas sang so much soul and passion and i simply understand so as to say that he and i somewhat had similiar traits of character.
My life in school and home has turn upside down.Few changes in my life..
I can't stop wondering what my future lie on. I really fancy myself to climbing to higher working position because i definately need money to keep up the expenditure.
Especially when you have high taste on something,you need a lot of money to keep it up.
Junbin is going to open a pub at Boat Quay on 20th October. I wonder how he manage to get money to start the business and what kind of plan he scale it up.
Not so easy to start. It will be no good if your business plan has no defined details.
I wonder what they are doing now like "How does Adeline cope her working life?","Will Eugene and Linda get through 1st year and move on to 2nd year?" and etc
When i was primary school student, soccer was my sole passion which it took my void up. I was never been that lonely.
Suddenly when i was reaching its peak(i think i was in secondary school), i was beginning to get tired of no-show acts. Finally, at that point...i failed to exceed my potential.That was when i finished secondary school.
Those days when some junior students saw me as Ronaldo just because of my skill and R9 boots.But now i am now average player.
It is a prime example why many professional players are like that.Especially Bentley of Blackburn..Wenger did not felt any need to keep him in Arsenal. He is simply good player but can't exceed his potential.
Today, soccer don't simply fill up my void. I am pondering how i gotta carry on my life.
I definately missed my normal academic class(Safran,Shahril,Victor,Junbin,Benny),IQB/IQO class(especially Haibi,Eugene,Kar Ho,Adeline,Linda,Shirely)and Cherlyn. I needed company badly but foreigners don't really make me comfortable because i simply don't get their way of interacting.
I don't expect too much but it take time to get used to it.
Sometimes Lance from China give me angry expression stare at me(of course he is in playful mode), i don't really get what he want to express.Why i say that?It is because he is sitting next to me.
Each time i say ,"what is up,friend?" and he say nothing.*peng*
What can i do?You probably find out my answer in some day.
Nicholas Tse seem to settle down as he secretly married Cecilia Cheung in Philipines.
He is ready to be father in any time.

I guess there is a strong need for identity to keep yourself up.
If you discard or don't have identity,you will be totally lost not knowing what to do.
Semester 2 has kicked off..
More truths to be exposed..It will be known by the time you spend more time on a person.
Time will tell everything.
There is a lot of mixes in 3 different project groups.
It is a little upsetting.
I would love to have the same old group including Cherlyn.
Everything has gone its turn.
Only one left is Ruo Nan with me in all 3 different groups.
Too many reasons but then i prefer let them to do what they felt.
There is a guy from China and the downside is complaints and argue for his own good.
It wouldn't be nice to argue for his own good when it certainly pull our group down.
Actually there is no need to blame because he is quite young man.
We have long way to comprehend the complication of lives.
I don't think our understanding on life will be that good enough.There are many more hidden agendas and events that we don't get to see.
And so don't complain too early when nothing happen to you.
Behold!i hope that i assemble a sort of winning combination team in semester 3.
Urgghh,i received e-mail from Adeline.
A mail written by someone else about why Indoesia suffer with all those natural disaster because of distributing pictures depicting that indoesians raped chinese girls only.
Come on, it is not the special case. there is hugh doubt behind it.Why are you so sure that they are the ones in those different pictures?
Too easy to write such stories but hard to prove it.
Rasist exist anywhere in the world. Live with it
RAPE?Just check out the crime chart that happened in few years ago back in South Africa.You will be damn shocked!
This kind of thing..i suggest that you take it as pinch of salt and don't trust entirely.
It has its no end.
Don't ever start another world war 3 just because of this and that.
I went through so much troubles and tribulations. There are things we should firmly do!Few 'rules' to be follow...You shall find out...
어느 멋진 날 (Eo-neu Meot-jin Nal)(One Fine Day)(Korean Drama 2006)

Notice the two picturse..the one she was smiling and the other she was angry.
She got x-factor within her face.When she smiled like that,i was like stunned and attracted by her lips and then when she was angry,my heart melt as her facial shape shone with the red fire.
Synopsis:
“One Fine Day” is a drama about a girl who works at an aquarium as an aquarist, that reunites with her brother from whom she’s been separated for 15 years. Different from other dramas, this one was shot in Australia, giving the viewers many beautiful new locations to look at. As it introduces a new kind of occupation, called an aquarist, it uses many different kinds of underwater filming techniques. These new techniques use a HD camera, which captivates the viewers with great pictures.
“As common as the grains of sand on a sandy beach, as common as the lyrics of a love song we are about to add on another love story to this common theme.”
This drama is a love story.
You might say “Another love story?” Yes it is another love story.
The drama might turn out to be another typical and ordinary love story and you might wonder why we even bother to tell another love story… the reason is because love stories are still the interesting stories and there hasn’t been a true love story that’s been told. People still have a great interest in love stories.
In this drama each character holds a problem with his or her heart (love). A guy who thinks that he never had a heart from the beginning and a girl who thinks that this very man is her heart and another guy who, after losing the one he loved, thinks that he doesn’t have a heart anymore, and a girl who looks weak but has the most powerful heart out of them all, which helps make everyone’s heart beat again. The story of this girl is the main subject of the drama.
These four characters...
Face such serious and cruel trials and tribulations that they make them want to die waiting for their resolutions.
Therefore there might even be some who say that these characters shouldn’t even have started up their love in the first place.
But while this drama is in process our one wish and hope is that all the viewers while watching the characters fight against fate, cheer for them in the hope that they attain their love and that fate might just pass them by. Our last hope is that by watching this drama the viewers come to think that if they were in the characters’ shoes they would endure all the pain and hardships needed to attain their love.
And so by the time the drama ends we hope that the viewers thirst, interests and expectations about love are all filled.
Suh Gun – Gong Yoo
‘Gun’ a name his father gave so that he would grow up to encompass the whole world like the sky.
But now Gun is a ‘yellow gun’, a backstreet gangster.
His name is also his nickname because of he has a fast fist and because without question he knocks people down with his first punch. He doesn’t even need to take around a mob or worry about other gang members attacking him because they don’t even dare to touch him.
His main job is swindling and the thing he does best is lying.
If someone asks why he is in such a business his answer would be it’s the same as asking why someone puts the bean paste on the lettuce and not on the meat when eating meat wrapped with lettuce or how people came about putting on their pants before they put on their shirts. He came to Australia, a land he wasn’t familiar with, lead by Kyung-taek where he became quicker at packing his suitcase than his school bag due to all the late-night runaways. On days when Kyung-taek would not come home he had to lie and beg for food.
At times Kyung-taek would get drunk on cheap vodka and start singing ‘Mok-po’s Tears’ and Gun would fall into his faint memories.
In his memories there is a girl who cries without a sound, a girl with tears rolling down her face.
When Gun was adopted in Australia after his parents’ death he went a week without any food or water insisting that he would not go unless it was with his little sister, but Kyung-taek did not give in. Unfortunately, he promises his little sister to some day come back for her. Not knowing how far Australia was from Korea he just gives his oath to keep his promise with her.
He thinks that these memories have become as faint as a fossil from the Paleozoic era, but he comes back to Seoul and gets a call from Sung-chan telling Gun that he has found someone with the same family picture as Gun’s
Suh Ha-neul – Seong Yoo-ri
She has lived 15 years of her life as Park Hae-won instead of Suh Ha-neul. Gun might be the best at lying in this world, but she is almost as good as him. Actually she is a level above him. Everyone knows that Gun is a liar but no one even has the slightest clue that Ha-neul is.
Acting as if she were happy, joyful, and not lonely; you name it she can do anything.
She should have already been a college student but since she has been living as Park Hae-won she is still a senior in high school but soon she is going to quit everything.
She has been planning to get away from this house even though everyone says being born into the house is like winning the lottery. She looks very weak, as though if someone hugs her every bone in her body would break, but she carries a strong and audacious character inside of her.
Before Gun left she thought that having a brother was the best thing anyone could ever have.
While other kids called their moms’ when crying she cried calling out for her brother, but her parents left her and her brother then soon after her brother also left her.
In her new adopted family she also has a brother.
Ha-neul, thinking that all brothers were like her brother, was surprised when she saw her new brother Tae-won.
Her new brother always snapped at her, yelling “You’re not my sister!” Her adopted mother’s love towards her made it hard to breathe and sometimes it’s what kept her from leaving.
Who else would be able to love her the way her adopted mother did?
All this love starts to get to her, but right when she is about to run away from it all her brother, who told her that he’ll be back to get her, really comes to take her back.
Just like it hasn’t been that long, without a change in expression...
“Don’t you remember? I promised you I’d come back for you. It’s me.”
How could she forget? She waited, counting down the days with her fingers again and again until the fingerprints on those fingers became faint, she waited...
Kang Dong-ha – Nam Goong-min
Aquarium Curator
He is self-confident, humorous and cheerful.
He seems to be the most cheerful person and has not had any hardships since the day he was born. Just looking at him seems to make everyone forget about their hardships. He is of course very popular. Many women hit on him and he also does not push those away that come to him. He likes to bet and always bets on everything; for example “If I can throw this cup into that garbage can then I’ll go on a date with you,” or “If you can guess the number of the next bus then I’ll give you a kiss.”
At first he approached Ha-neul in a joking way, but this girl is either too quick-witted or on a higher level, because no matter what he does she just gives him a smile and no special response to any of his actions.
Even if he tells her that he is hitting on her she just says “O.K.” and smiles back at him. He thinks of Ha-neul’s actions as somewhat fun, and from some point watching her makes him forget about Kyung-won. Kyung-won is the woman he absolutely loved when he was about 20. The woman he lost at a beach they went together to. First he went to the beach to find Kyung-won, then he went to erase her from his heart, and finally he went to the beach so that he can be with her again. At the beach he learned that life is something you adapt yourself to.
If you try to take on the wave you end up paying the price; like when you try to erase someone from your heart it just tears you up even more, and Ha-neul seems to know this. She doesn’t know how to get mad or cry she just knows how to smile, but one day he sees her crying without a sound, only that of the tears falling from her eyes.
The moment he sees her tears, he feels something opening up deep in his heart.
He then knows that Ha-neul, who has always been smiling, was really crying on the inside.
Goo Hyo-joo – Lee Yeon-hee
She has 3 guys that are willing to die for her.
“Dad you would die for me right?” “Of course!”
“Brother you would also die for me right?” “Yeah, sure.” “Gun, die for me!” “Alright.”
She grew up overprotected by these three men.
She not only has a pretty face but also long legs; in other words she is has the perfect body. She starts a whistling orchestra of guys, walking down the streets waving her ebony colored hair and wearing jeans and a white shirt.
Among those guys there have been a lot of decent guys and successful Korean-Americans but she didn’t even care to look at them. Other than her looks she is very pure.
She likes Gun the best and she thinks that it’s alright if her heart bursts and she dies as long as she’s with him. She over-exaggerates being happy, excited, and her affections. Hyo-joo is always the one that begs for a kiss from emotionless Gun, but it’s all right with her and doesn’t bother her a bit.
Because he’s a swindler, who trusts a swindler?
A person like Gun goes to Korea to find his little sister. Gun tells her that he won’t be gone for long but Hyo-joo follows right after him. She meets Ha-neul and picks up on her undefined nervousness.
At first she felt sorry for Ha-neul because she felt as if she had stolen her brother from her for the last 15 years, but Hyo-joo keeps feeling nervous, worrying that Gun is going to leave her. It really seems as if her heart is going to burst.
