Memories of the late 70's and 80's baby

If you are late 70’s and early 80’s Malaysian baby, please read through this and you will smile and think back of the old memories. I don’t know who wrote this article which was circulated through the email, but it was an interesting article and I decided to post it on my blog.

We grew up watching….Transformers, Thundercats, Woody Woodpecker, Chipmunks, Mickey Mouse, Jem, Mask,Ninja Turtles, Voltron, Baja Hitam, Ultraman and not forgetting POWER RANGERS, BUGS BUNNY, A Team, Knightrider and McGyver. Do you remember the time when we were so carefree and actually had almost everything done for us by our parents? Not to forget our 'program minum susu' in primary school. Everybody is supposed to buy like cartons of milk that costs 30 cents and you would see everyone drinking it everyday...its d UHT milk...also... our 'Vitagen program'.

The teachers who would want to punish us must use yellow ruler to hit us on our palms. 1 metre length or rub 'cili padi' on our lips or strip us off our pants(guys tau taulah). That a bowl of laksa, nasi lemak or roti canai only cost less than 50 cents at the school canteen and it tasted so damn good. We went to some sundry shop near the school or to the 'roti' man waiting outside our schools so that we can buy junk food like chickedees, mamee, ding dang, Tora (with some toys in it), 'Ti Kam', and ice-cream and we would play games like monopoly, uno, old maid, and all other card games(car, train, airplanes) like that.

Another fun time would be during Pendidikan Jasmani(PJ). We would play football ... almost the whole class chasing for the ball... some barefooted...some wearing their white canvas school shoes and it would be like we were playing in the world cup. But of course, the best would be playing plastic ball, bottlecaps, ice-cream sticks, 'Gala Panjang', Police & Thief catching, 'kunda kundi' and for the not so active, those kind of 'book games' where we would use buku latihan to draw and ask our friends to play...(tick tack toe and many more).

Do you remember the ice-cream tubes (ASAM BOI) which are actually ice and colouring that are sold for 10 to 20 cents? The colourful ones are where you usually bite off the top to glup it down. Grapes tastes d best..(pop-ice). What about the days when we felt like doing naughty things such as folding papers so small to make 'lastik' and shoot at each other... how about throwing chalks? Back then, Micheal Jackson was just turning white and still had albums coming out.. compared to CD's, we were listening to tapes that sold for RM5.90. Going to school is an adventure by itself. Some of us take the 'uncle bus' or 'auntie bus'. Some ride their bicycles and convoy to school while some just walk to school with friends joking, laughing and disturbing school girls along the way (siapa makan cili dia rasa pedas).

We may have already lost some of our dear friends along the way who have either passed away, migrated abroad or just missing in action. But the memories during our time will never fade and shall be remembered as long as we live.

Arsenal Won The Emirates Cup

Congratulations to Arsenal for winning The Emirates Cup 2007.

They beat beat both PSG and Inter Milan with the score of 2-1 to be at the top of the table.

After all, this cup should remain at where it is.

It's good to see the lads performing well and they deserved what they get.

It is also interesting to see some young and future talents of Arsenal played in this tournament. Their skilled and hard work rate really excites the Arsenal fans.

The Emirates Cup is an annual two-day pre-season football tournament held at Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium in London, England and it is hosted by Premier League side Arsenal.

The inaugural Emirates Cup took place on 28 and 29 July 2007 and featured the hosts, as well as reigning Serie A Champions Inter Milan, French side Paris Saint-Germain and Spanish outfit Valencia (having replaced Hamburg SV, who had to pull out of the tournament because of Intertoto Cup commitments Each team played two matches, with three points awarded for a win, one point for a draw, and a point for every goal scored. Arsenal did not play against Valencia, and Inter Milan did not play against Paris Saint-Germain.

I hope by winning this tournament, it will motivate the lads and gear up them for real challenges ahead in the Premier League and European Competition.

Gunners Bulleh!!!!

My Other Baby

Sugar Glider? Not many people have heard about this small animal, or even see it. Well, for the first time I saw them at a pet shop, I said to myself that I am really going to have it as my pet.

Finally, I managed to buy it at Rm500 for a pair last year around March and until today, they are healthy and still grows. I named my baby Snowball(male) and Snowflake(female).

AFC Asian Cup 2007 1st Semifinal

Yesterday, one of my colleague asks me to accompany him to watch the game between Iraq and Korea at Bukit Jalil National Stadium. It was the 1st Semi, and the 2nd Semi would be between Japan and Saudi Arabia at My Dinh National Stadium, Hanoi. Without hesitation, I agree to watch since I can't find any kaki to watch with me for the last 3 games at the stadium. We move from the office sharp at 5:40pm and direct shoot to Bukit Jalil through the Sungai Besi toll. Stop by at McD to buy some burgers. It was raining a little bit, but nothing can stop our eager mood. The traffic was a bit heavy at Bukt Jalil and we parked far from the stadium. So, each of us took an umbrella and walk to the stadium.

Unexpectedly, there were many people over there- the Koreans, Iraqis, Arabians, Malaysians, and many more. We thought since the Malaysian Team is out of this tournament already (they played “so good” until they are out), there should be less people, but I am happy to see many fans over there. We queue up to buy the ticket, but suddenly a guy approached us whether we want to buy his ticket - Rm30 ticket for Rm10. So, we just grab the ticket and pass him Rm20 and walk quickly to the entrance since we were already late 20 mins.

Once inside the stadium, we need to put our umbrellas at one area. Then, we manage to find 2 seats in the Iraqis fan area. The environment was good, with both team fans cheering loud their National Team. Score at 1st half still nil-nil. In 2dn half, we change our sittings to Korean fans area. It is even more fantastic environment. But, I need to control, since I support Iraq, while my friend support the Koreans. The game was good, with each team attacking and defending against each other. After 90 mins, it was a scoreless draw, The game had to go into extra time for another 30mins. After extra time, the score still nil-nil and penalty shootout has to be decided. Luckily, the penalty shootout was just in front of my sitting place, and I managed to see it clearly.

Finally, after much tensions and worries among the fans, Iraq managed to win the penalty shootout. The players and fans become wild and cheering loud and louder. Overall, I had a good experience watching the match. This will be my 1st Asian Cup game at Bukit Jalil National Stadium, but who knows, maybe next time, I will watch it somewhere else. Even though the stadium with a capacity of 100k only manage to attract around 5000 fans, but the atmosphere was fantastic and great. I can't imagine if the stadium is full, for example like Emirates Stadium (yeah, I am an Arsenal die hard fan) or Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Spain, then it will be superb. I will probably saves money and for once in my life, watch a game at the Emirates Stadium. Gone gone my Rm5000 if I manage to go.

Viva to the AFC Asian Cup 2007.

Baywatch at Tanjung Sepat

Last Saturday(14-Jul), I went to Tanjong Sepat to have seafood dinner with my gf and a friend. We went to this restaurant called Baywatch Restaurant, where Jason(from the show Taste with Jason on Astro Chn 19) dine at one of his episode.

Since we were damn hungry after reaching there quite late around 9pm) , our grand dishes were oyster, fish, sotong a.k.a. squid, crab, vege, oyster and clams.

The food was good (maybe due to the hungry stomach), but overall, the food and the place combination is excellent. You can have your dinner peacefully and just enjoy the sea breeze since this restaurant is located just beside the beach. The price was moderate, as I am sure for 3 of us, it is not so expensive neither not so cheap.

1st Experience of F1

Last week on the 7th and 8th of April 07, I went to the F1 race at Sepang. It was a first experience for me to watch this race and the first time too that I went to the Sepang Circuit. Well, it was a truly great and superb experience for me as I managed to view the qualifying race in the Grand Stand, but for the race day, I viewed it from the covered roof sitting. The ticket price for Grand Stand sitting is RM1200, and I managed to sit in front of the Ferrari and McLaren paddock. Don’t worry, I didn’t purchase the ticket, or else I will be broke, but I “borrowed” it from a friend who got extra ticket on the qualifying day. Parking fee near the main entrance alone cost RM150 and there were 5 of us in one car. From the main entrance, I need to walk around 10-15 minutes under the hot red spicy sun to the gate entrance.

Along the way, many F&B stalls and F1 merchandise stalls had been set up. The set lunch is standard, RM25 while drinks such as Coke and small mineral water is RM5. Many Ferrari supporters were here as everywhere you look, you can see red colour. The red hot sun didn’t damper their interest. After showing the ticket, I went to find the sitting of the ticket number. It was a good sitting as it was in front of the of the two famous team paddock, Ferrari driven by Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa and McLaren driven by Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton. Qualifying starts at 2 pm. I need to use the ear plug due to the sound is super maximum. It was a great race, as I managed to watch the pit stop of both Team Ferrari and McLaren and Ferrari Massa managed to take over McLaren Alonso at the last remaining qualifying time to take the pole position. Kimi Raikkonen took the 3rd position while Hamilton in fourth. Another driver which has many local supporters due to the involvement of Petronas as the, BMW Sauber F1 premium partner, Nick Heidfeld managed to get the 5th position.

For the race day, my ticket is for covered sitting RM150. Parking ticket is RM50 under the palm oil tree and need to walk for about 10 minutes to the gate entrance. Since we (me and a few friends) already knew we can’t bring any food or drinks, we decided to smuggle a few mineral water in and we easily managed to do it. Mission accomplish. After they check our ticket, we look for a comfortable spot and managed to find one in front of a so called big screen. So, we spread the mat, joking around and wait for the race to start at 3pm. Once the race start, everybody was making noise here and there to show their support o their favourite team. We wait and waited until 56 laps to finish which finally had been won by McLaren Alonso. What disappoint me was Raikkonen didn’t manage to beat Alonso and Massa drops form 1st place to 5th place. Another driver which has many local supporters due to the involvement of Petronas as the BMW Sauber F1 premium partner, Nick Heidfeld managed to get the 4th position.
