Liverpool

There's no words to describe this moment.

Simply thrilling. It already seems like a gone case in the first half. And I was already thinking of sleeping off the disappointment. But thankfully, i followed the whole match. With my heart stomping madly, there are moments that i thought that i will pass out due to an overload of sheer adrenalin.

Witnessing history. And the moment to savour at the end. Ah, it reminds me why I really like to be a supporter(although a distant one).

I really can't sleep now. This is simply too much. I guess I'll have to spend the rest of the month explaining to others about my never-will-going-to-fade smirk.

Btw, from nowadays, i'm declaring the 25th-26th May the official Ngiam holiday.

I Hate These!

Remember? Sometimes during the course of your daily interaction with various people, sometimes, there are some people out there who stood out by the virtue of being really good at using "ready-made" sentences during their conversation.

You know? Something that is "pow-wow", some words that are so explosive that it'll leave your mouth agape that such person can have such thoughts/principles in them. You just don't believe it. And suddenly, you feel much humbled by these person. So in awe of their unbelieveable thoughts/principles. You never believe that they have it in them. These thoughts. Wow!

And one hour later during the course of your interaction, it suddenly strike you.
Well, this person seems to be doing a direct opposite of what was loudly proclaim just a while ago. What?!? A few week ago, someone in a "holier-than-thou" way telling you dismissively to shut up if you have nothing contributive to say during a crisis, and here is that very same someone telling you some bullshit just when YOU are having a problem. Or a person who was telling you to be more contributive to the society, that you owe it to them to at least contribute something that will push the society forward, ONLY to hear in an hour after that, that very person smugly telling everyone that it's allright to alter the data for a final year project to show that it's a successful one when in actual fact it wasn't.

What move this peoples to say something so refined just a moment ago, and then do/say something that totally contradict it? One main thing that is to be noted here is that they never remember what they've spoken, it's use is only for a temporary moment. In my own bias way, i'll read it in such way that they want to maintain an appearance of being a more cultured person. Well, anything just as long as they show that they are the ones at the top of the food chain. And you, the bottom amoeba.

A "know-it-all" person who's path is always in the rightoeous path..... when you are happen to be in the way. And a person who uses any path when it's life is at risk. A boneless persona. A slimy slug.

How many of these peoples will we meet in our live? How many person that you know are just like that? Well, everyone that we meet everyday is just like that. EVERYONE. Only that there are some much more minor cases(simple hypocrisy like telling someone not to watch this movie today, only to be found watching the very same movie... today)which is bearable and can simply ignored.

I'm not going to say that I'm a perfect person. Hell, I even do such things. So why kick such a fuss? Well, such stories deserve a space of its own. Something for us to contemplate on. For us to brood over. Maybe to learn and to improve. If not, well, just for a read then.
