Farewell, Special One
After 4 years....not one year without a trophy. What else do you ask for? Just because of no Champions League trophy? Can't you give him some time? All you care about is your dividends and trophies...Mr. Abramovich? You think Alex Ferguson got his European trophy when he first came in? So does Rafa Benitez? and Arsene Wenger? You think Carlo Ancelotti got his European trophy when he first came in as AC Milan manager? Get real..and get a life!
Jose : Shevchenko and Ballack?? No way! They're good players, but not suitable for Chelsea's play. Oh no no way!
The Chelsea moment.
They used to be great friends. Walking together around the pitch, sharing jokes and laughters.
Until one day,
Roman : I'm getting Shevchenko and Ballack into the team.
Jose : Shevchenko and Ballack?? No way! They're good players, but not suitable for Chelsea's play. Oh no no way!
Roman : Yes, i am the boss. You play them and fit them wherever they can. And start winning the Uefa Champions League!
That matter got Jose "Special One" Mourinho unsettled. Everyday he endured migraine thinking of how to fit Shevchenko and Ballack into the team. Later on, he became frustrated and has since then been pressured by his boss, Roman Abramovich. They never talked, never looked eye to eye, and never smiled at each other. Until 20/9/2007, Roman Abramovich became the Donald Trump, Chelsea version. "Jose, you're fired!!"
Jose Mourinho is one of the few managers, to be exact, the ONLY manager that i salute and respect highly. No other managers that i would respect highly like i respect Jose. Roman Abramovich certainly doesn't know nuts about football! If EPL or Chelsea was a computer game, i would control Jose Mourinho...
As the Street Fighter game would go,
"Jose! You win! Perfect!"
I will miss you badly, Jose Mourinho.
Your departure is more shocking than former Japanese Prime Minister, Abe's departure.

On Eagle's Wings
If you know me well enough, you'd know that my favourite animal is the eagle. Unlike other people who prefer dogs, cats, fish, i prefer something strong, fierce, and mighty. Hence, the eagle.
The eagle is called "The King of the Skies". No other birds are like this bird of prey. Not even the vultures.
Why do i like the eagle? Everytime when i look at the eagle, it gives me strength and courage. There's a reason for this. During turbulance or any storm, all birds would basically go to their hiding place. But not the eagle.
What would an eagle do in times of storm? The eagle would spread out its wings, and soar steadily. The eagle would face the storm with endurance and courage. Have you seen the eagle soar, with its wings wide open? That's how it would soar even in times of turbulance and storms.
The next thing is the eagle's vision. The eagle's eyesight can see a small fish in the water even when flying 100 feet up the sky. An eagle can see far, beyond every animal could see. This great vision reminds me of how we should live. We should set a vision for our lives. To live a life with purpose. As we can see beyond the years, we live with a hope, and of course a trust in the Lord.
Therefore, these are the reasons why i love the eagle. It encourages me to soar with wings wide open in times of storms, and never back down. Besides, it helps me create a vision for my life, to live my life with a purpose, and to hold on to a hope that will never cease.
Therefore when you're in trouble or difficulties, think of the eagles. Soar like them, firmly and steadily.

Songs of Motivation
Do you have a song that accompanies you through your hard times? It's good to have songs that will help you and encourage you when you're in difficulties or any sort of challenges. Everytime when you're stressed up or finding yourself facing a big problem, or when your heart is troubled because of the big issues you're going through, sit down, relax, and just listen to the songs. Well for me, two songs always accompany me when i'm finding myself in hardships or challenges. These songs will never fail to lift me up whether spiritually or emotionally. They are:
1) My Hope, from Hillsong Australia, with the chorus that goes:
My hope is in the Name of the Lord
Where my help comes from
You're my strength, my song
My trust is in the Name of the Lord
I will sing your praise
You are faithful
2) Still, from Hillsong Australia, with the chorus that goes:
When the ocean rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father You are King over the flood
I will be still, know You are God
These two songs are my encouragement to help me face my mountains and oceans. They give me strength and confidence to face anything, yes anything. Because there's nothing my God cannot do.

Greatest Role Model
These days there are less and less role models for people, especially the young generation, to look up to. No matter how great or successful a person can be, you and i know, no one is perfect.
But i have a friend who is great in everything he does. Let me tell you the qualities. He is a great:
1) Businessman - He multiplied 5 breads and 2 fish and was able to feed the 5000 people
2) Doctor - He healed the sick, blind, crippled etc.
3) Engineer - He builds and was a carpenter for 30 years
4) Lawyer - He argued and the teachers of the law kept silent and couldn't answer him back
5) Lecturer - He spoke and everyone listened
6) Tour guide - He led more than 12 people around Middle East everyday
7) Sportsman - He walked from town to town everyday. Not even a marathon champion can do that.
8) Psychologist - He knows what you're thinking even if you don't say it
9) Singer - He never failed to sing songs of praise and never failed to celebrate the passover feast
10) Politician - Everyone favoured him until the local government felt threatened.
This is just a little glimpse of my best friend here. I can go all the way down the page. You want to find a role model? Get to know this guy. He knows me well. If you want to know him too, let me know, or give me a call at 017-2053982. Oh he just called me, he said he wants to know you too. Don't wait!

The World Mourned..some still mourning.
6 years ago today, i remember i was revising for my PMR. That time was about 10 pm plus. And out of the sudden my parents began making noises. I was curious and went down to see what happened. But as i saw the tv, i was shocked to see :
*America Under Attack!*
My heart dropped like never before as i saw one of the twin towers in New York City, called the World Trade Centre, on fire. People were running here and there. I could even see people in the building yelling for help. Not long later, another plane came and... *crash!!*
I couldn't believe my eyes. That was one of the deadliest attacks i've ever seen. Later on, both buildings came tumbling down. That was the end of the lives of 3000 or more people. Not counting attacks at the Pentagon in Washington.
Until now i still remember that incident. But the worst part is, the man behind those attacks is still hiding in the cave.

Shut up son of Laden! I pray that one day i will see Mr. Bush the Genius standing on stage like this:
Serves you right!!

A New First Lady of Opposite Gender
There were some people who were discussing what would they call a lady president's husband since the presidents of the United States have mostly been men. They used to call the wife of a president "First Lady". So what would they call the next president's husband? If the president is a lady.
But Hillary Clinton appears calm to face the terrorists.
But still, what would the people call her husband, Bill Clinton? A former president of the United States.
Huh???
And from then on..the people start chanting "Ah Biu" "Ah Biu" "Ah Biu" wherever he goes.

Leaked Questions
Recently there has been a big hoo-haa on UPSR's questions being leaked. Well it's not the first time questions are being leaked though. During my time of PMR and SPM, questions were also leaked. But how come government only take action this year?
Luckily during my time it wasn't that terrible. Otherwise i would've got worse results. Mostly were the tuition teachers who leaked the questions. And i think tuition centres aren't offering reasonable salaries to the teachers that's why they leaked the questions to get extra earnings.
So government, if you want to solve the case, go to the tuition centres first. Trust me.

All The Best, Dr. M
Just want to take some time out to wish our former Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir, all the best as he goes through the coronary bypass operation.
This man is one of the great world leaders that i admire. Admire his vision and his ability to draw Malaysia into the world map.
With the chief doctor performing the operation (the same doctor that performed heart operation for my dad), i'm sure God will also grant him the wisdom to make this operation a success.
God bless you Dr. M and may you have a speedy recovery.
