Man United Vs Liverpool at TTDI

Just Me

I forgot to blog about this that day. I was tired so I put it to one side.

It was one the biggest showdowns for the end of the year. Manchester United vs Liverpool football match started at 9.25 pm our Malaysian time. Me and Giden had gone to TTDI to meet up with his friends to watch the match. I also asked Mike to join us in our football match meet up. Unfortunately for one of Giden’s friends.. who also happens to be his boss… everyone else was a Man. United fan and not a Liverpool. Hey! not my fault that Man United has more supporters.

Anyway we me at Eckywoobee - the sports?cafe ……

Now why of all names they named it that I have no idea.. and why the “?” in the middle of their name is also beyond my comprehension.

and the menu??

Food price is normal. Service is NOT fantabulous. I had the Ecky Sandwich which I think they should rename it to ICKY sandwich. It had nothing much in i, the meat was some sort of slice up pathetic piece of bacon was barely even noticed by my tongue.

Giden had the Jumbo Burger. It’s big, but while it looks nice….

It is far from the mouth salivating burger that it should be. The meat patty was just huge and crumbly… I mean literally crumbly! When you bite into, cut into .. whatever into it, it just broke into bits and pieces…. nice. And the fries… they took forever to get to our table.

In all fairness I think it is still too new and not ready for the big crowd that normal mamaks can handle for football season.

The company was pretty good hehhe.. All Man United fans.. lookie!

The game was fairly alright, and Giden will always say that I don’t concentrate on the game. Partially true! But hey I’m thereto support the team man. How can you not support a team with such fantastic players and with a manager like Fergusan…although I do kinda think the football got more interesting when Mourinho was still around.

The Liverpool players had marked good ol’ Ronaldo well till he was just quiet throughout most of the game. Liverpool may have been controlling the game all the way with Van der Sar having some butter finger problems here and there. In the end though guess who won…

The clapping people means Manchester United won.. Soo ha ha ha ha ha! Which managed to make Man U top of the table….I hope it stays that way too. …. Crap just saw the score… Arsenal is back on top! Sigh…

And now a song…

Glory Glory Man United..
Glory Glory Man United..
And the Saints go Marching on!

Ah well….

But the location was very nice. It reminded me a lot of Clark Quay in Singapore… check out what it looks like inside the shoplots area. The cafe we were at, was just one of the many shops that was shown on the outside facing the street. This is the inside of TTDI.

My Syntha-6 and Gakic

Just Me

Well I’m taking back the gym routine again, which is great and a lot of fun. So yesterday I made a drop at GNC to buy some supplements, since I’m lacking in protein for repairing the muscles I tore. Also I decided to drop hydroxycut (The slimming pill from GNC) since I felt that iw as not only not getting the results stated but because it was just giving me some negative effects. Like spinning head, slight dizziness, so figure it’s best to stop taking the pills.

SO instead I spent around a good RM200plus on protein powder called Syntha-6, chocolate flavour and on anti-fatigue caplets by muscle tech. The protein powder is meant mostly for after workout to repair your so torn muscles. Taste is pretty good, especially when mixed with a good milo. Don’t mix with milk, I think you’ll have a an over dose of sweetness. I took to cups of cold milo with a good spoonful of it. By the way the spoon, if you get Syntha-6, it is stupidly buried in the middle of the bottle. I hadn’t realised until after i was pouring it out into a different container.


Here’s my new protein shake, I love the bottle. I’m going to turn it into a lamp when I’m through with it.

Originally I wanted creatine, since I want to go back to doing the explosive workouts, like plyometrics to give me the extra push. But after much persuasion, I went for Gakic, the anti-fatigue caplets. It’s a heck of a price at RM538 for 128 caplets. The dosage for men in US is round 8 caplets (my gosh!!!!) per day and only while exercising.

Males: my friend whom I’m sharing it with, started off with two caplets.
Females: the lady at the store recommended to start it off with just half a caplet per session and then work your way to slowly to 1. I took 1 on the first day, just to give an extra kick.

So results? Well cardio wise, there was not much kick, however during the weight training period. We seemed to have quite a fair bit too keep pushing. In all fairness, if we hadn’t gone for an hour on cardio alone I think the muscles could have still been able to push more iron, or more reps in my case. I wanna be lean not mean. Hehehe.

SO that was day one, but lets see what happens with the rest of the month with Gakic.


FIG 2007

Just Me, Videos

Last Sunday, was the Federation of International Gymnastics (FIG) competition 2007. And this will determine who will be going in to defend Malaysia in the “sports aerobics” category in the coming SEA Games.Having said that, my friends took part and what is ’sad’ is that only 4 people took part. Yeah this sport does not get much coverage =S and even if it does, there are not many people out there who even know what sports aerobics is let alone, bother to try the sport.

Anyways, on to tell the more important part. Well done to all the four competitors (and especially the one who wasn’t even physically there!) No video on the competition yet, it’s in Jo’s camera. Congrats Pei, you won this one! :)

And yeah it didn’t even occur to me i was sorta representing you :P The fruits are actually the prizes. You got two!


as usual Perlin took full credit lol. Hehe. Not too mention on wrapped up fruits.


So I tagged a long. :P


the terrifying score board.


The judges of  FIG and the competitors,  (left to right) Johinah, Ashraf and Joanne. Well done to all of you guys who took part.  It ain’t easy, and it’s great that you guys took part in this.

I will put this video though, I hadn’t seen it till just now, from Pei dedicate to us back here at home:

  1. Perlin (coach with a passion for teeth)
  2. Joanne (fellow sports aerobics in crime)
  3. Tina (another teeth lover :P and supporter)
  4. Irene (our FISAF leader)
  5. Zambri (gymnastic coach)
  6. and yeah… me to :)

Man United Tip to Malaysia cancelled!

Entertainment

The horror and stupidity of it all!

Malaysia likely to scrap Man. U match to avoid clash with Asian Cup

  blog it

For a long while Manchester United fans have been waiting for another session to see the glorious red devils here on our very own soil called Malaysia.

Sad to say this has been cancelled for the darnest reason. Reason for Hammam of FAM to scrap the Man U tour, is simpy because they want to ensure it doesn’t clash with the region’s flagship. In all fairness as much as they want to encourage their own citizens to watch Malaysian football. I think it is highly unreasonable for them to want to scrap the tour altogether. Who stated that Korea and Japan should also not allow Manchester to tour their countries.

For what it’s worth, Korea has a representative in Man. United. Obviously they would want them to come down. Hellooooo!!

Also is it not Malaysian Tourism year? What better way to hype it up then by having world renowned celebrities to touch down here. Furthermore, as Air Asia is now the official flight carrier of Man U., don’t you think it would be good for their marketing as well? Helloooo… you’ve missed a big boat!

And also to add, Man U. has a big fan base here in Malaysia alone. I’m surprised that they have not done or stated anything yet.

As you can tell I’m furious and if anything this may not help Asian football. Oh.. and on that note, if Malaysia plays with Man U. it will be a good way for them to test their skills in football. The only way to improve yourself is to play with better players. How do you think Nicole did so well, cause she fought hard against World players!
If Malaysia wants to be a jaguh kampung, fine! Let the other countries always be one step ahead.

Back to my point, the Man U team shouldn’t have been given the cold shoulder. Firstly the legendary players like Scholes and Giggs maybe ending their careers soon. It would be nice for the Man U supporters here to see them once before they retire. Secondly Ronaldo and Rooney who were confirmed to be around for the tour…..I lost my point but, it would be great for young football players to meet these young and highly achieved players. Aha! I remember my point, this could very well motivate them to play as well as Ronaldo and Rooney in Malaysia, hah, now think about that!

I’ve blasted… and now need to get back to work.
