The Journey to the HOME oF FootBALL!

On May 21st 2010, I went for my first pilgrimage to the home of football - The Emirates Stadium!


Although there was no stadium tour on that day and no chance of getting into the stadium as there was an exam going on for the nearby university, I felt privileged enough to be happy to be just there to see and hug the stadium.


I started early on the underground and reached the Arsenal underground in no time.


Excitedly, I walked briskly towards the old Highbury ground to check out the remains. nothing much is left and signboards are up for the new developments. I moved on quickly, adrenaline pumping as I near the box office. Happiness may be an understatement but I guess the adjective is about just right as I can feel the ground once i got closer.....



Pass the box office and across the North Bridge, what a great welcome by Tony and Henry! Nice touch on the design of the stadium by whoever did it. Gives you a very homely feeling. :)


Oh, and when you see 'God', you just have to bow to him. Isnt Dennis inspiring?!!?


I went berserk and started taking tons of photos. hahaa.... Oh, and when i reached the Armoury, all hell broke lose... BUY BUY BUY!!! lots of design and stuff not available else where... well, most of the stuff is for my son, as I am proud to say, he is the latest GUNNER in the family!!!












Its feel great to finally touch and kiss the ground that I worshipped...... to complete the dream, I really hope we start filling up the cabinets in the Emirates with trophies in the coming seasons!!



Go GUNNERS!!!

May 10 2010 - a Shitty day...

It was a shitty day yesterday....

early in the morning, i was nearly banged by a taxi driver. A merc cab: SHD 108 ?
Quite an asshole... after he nearly bang me and i honk at him, he refused to let me pass to his left lane... accelerate and de-celerate with me.... Blody CHINA guy... why do we need them as taxi drivers!!?!?!!?

next up, had a shitty day at work... nothing moved much.. and tons of calls from the stupid box.... sigh..... cant tell u all more about the box or i will get into trouble... sigh...

then, had a quarrel/argument with a very good friend... lasted quite long too... si bei siazn.....

after lunch, a splitting heahache descended on me. result of heat (it was a blody hot day) or irritation? i think the latter bah...... but well it was very sharp on the mind... pain like shit...

and last thing i wanted was for dinner to F$*k up..... sian.... it was the WORST ever Ban Mee i ever tasted in my mind.... to put it simply, its like rubber bands in plain water.... can noodle makers have some pride in their delivery? this is at the Bedok South coffee shop... somewhere near blk 168..... Really really f&*ked up... normally, i will hack care and just finished up the meal... always been taught not to waste food.... but this time, it was really too nasty....

What a shitty day...!!!

Arsenal season...

Its a sad season ending.... we finished 3rd no doubt.. but i believe it could have been more if we did buy some cover for the Centerbacks and keeper.... plus if RVP and Fabregas were injury free....

Come on Gunners!!! Get ready for next season!
