*squeak squeak... squeak squeak*
Ooh~ It's the Year of the Rat Rodent Hammies!

Uh huh you folks heard right, it's the Year of the ummm according to the 2 pet hamsters scuffling around at home, it's the Year of the Hammies. My mum's zodiac's Rat so she's pretty confident it'll be a super duper awesome 2008. Rat-ta-ta-ta-ta rat-ta-ta-ta (some Missy Elliot song, lol)
Sorry for my alleged abandonment of blog, haha the previous minute I was fretting over my CNY clothes, then shopping for them, and the next minute it's CNY already, and the feasting begins, gambling dens open in full glory. Haha my CNY was filled with umm vice, yep had a totally sinful CNY. Whatta way to start the lunar new year, eh? Haha let's see, Gluttony? Check. Greed? Check. Sloth? Hmm 50-50 I'd say, I mean we worked our butts off doing last minute spring cleaning (as usual!).
Cleared the most of Rocher chocolates and fell sick. Lol yea such a wimp. Ate A LOT of tangerines. Had steamboat. Pocketed many ang baos (omg, I'm so tempted to get a new jersey!!! How how? Should I?) Played Wii at my cousin's place! Haha Wii's super fun, and the best part is it feels almost like the real thing, we were sweating it out playing bowling, tennis, golf, Mario monopoly. Trust me, it's already entertaining enough just watching them play. Lol, if I win the Toto draw tonight I'm gonna get a Wii and buy a Liverpool FC share!
Oh yeah as for the gambling, won $3+ at Ban Luck the previous day, but lost $6+ at mahjong the next day. T_T MacDonald's meal. Haha oh well, it's all in good fun so it's okay.
A soccer update finally!
Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool
I'm pretty satisfied with the draw, really. Though Crouchy missing a few chances kinda disappointed me a wee bit. But there were so many funny moments during the match. Like Riise getting butt-grabbed by some Chelsea player during a tackle. And then the ref allegedly 'diving' after Mascherano balled him over. LOL! And that ref looks like a scrawny turkey. XD I think Skrtel (hope his wrist's okay now after getting mangled by Anelka), Mascherano (I love aggressive players!), Gerrard (as usual trying to cover the shortcomings all over the field, though he gave the ball away more than usual but he's definitely still up there alright), Babel did well and I thought Rafa's switch was kinda ???
Honestly, I think we had more chances of breaking the 0-0 deadlock than Chelsea did. My opinion on Kuyt hasn't changed much this season, you can count on him to lose the ball 8 out of 10 times he gets it. Keeping my hopes up still. :) There were some moments where we saw some brilliant one-touch passing, those moments were enough to give me hope that all's not lost. Oh yeah we're missing Torres last night alright.
As for the Share Liverpool FC issue, I'm all for it. I'd gladly plonk down 10K (please Cai Shen Ye help me help Liverpool tonight, please please!) if it means saving the club, if it means having a share in the club (think Barca, Madrid). What do Yankees know about English football. Grrrr when I heard they were gonna divert funds back into their American clubs, I seriously wanted to give them the boot treatment. HOW COULD THEY!?! Now that the fans are going against the Yankees, Rafa's safe for now. I'm standing by my stance, I like Rafa and really hope he's not gonna leave.
During the post-match conference, Crouchy was holding out a bottle of champagne to Carragher. Wonder what's that all about? Lol. As usual, You'll Never Walk Alone! ;)
p.s Sorry about ManU's loss against Man City (lol who am I kidding?). But my heart goes out to all who were commemorating the 50th Munich anniversary.
