Im still revelling in man utd's victory last night in the champion's league quarter finals. the red devils romped over roma in a 7-1 win, aggregate 8-3. who wld have expected a result like this? the entire soccer world is still talking abt it. really unbelieveable. i woke up to catch the game in the wee hours of the morning but i was late! by the time i turned on the tv it was alr 2nd half and ronaldo just scored man utd's 5th goal and his second! but still, i was treated to a fantastic display of football for the next 40mins. i am super thrilled by their victory!
Just came back from the Good Friday long weekend, which i spent in KL with my family! my dad, my mom, my brother n his family and myself all drove up to KL for the weekend. and im proud to say that i did all the driving in my dad's car! it was my first time driving in m'sia, and i was really looking forward to the experience. cos i know that the traffic there is much more crazy, hectic and the motorcycles are a real menace zipping abt, not caring abt their own safety(think cutting into ur blind spot as u turn). but guess what? my MCC, "msia conversion course", came at full blown and i passed! haha...drove on the north south highway thru day n night, drove in Melacca, KL and even up and down Genting Highlands at night! i really experienced all the different types of driving in msia. the traffic there is really crazy and dangerous. once, along the road, we witnessed a piled up carnage of not 1, not 2, not 5, not 10, but 14 cars!! can u believe it?? 14 cars smashed back to back. thank goodness i was not caught in between!
Well, back to work these few days. and the 3 of us - James, detong and myself, are finalising our plans for our shanghai trip next week. we'll be leaving on the 17th, and coming back on the 23rd. gonna stay at mike's place in shanghai. we're gonna tour shanghai city and also hangzhou and xitang. and i think we'll most prob take a train up to beijing too, cos i just have to see the Forbidden City!! a place of so many stories and so much history. i just cant wait to get inside those 10m high walls! i wanna feel for myself what it was like to live behind those walls in the past. hope it will be great! im just so excited abt it! but a lot of things have to be coordinated and worked out, mostly transportation. we have to see the train schedules and really plan our route carefully so as to maximise the time we have for sightseeing. i really hope our plan works out, tho i know by cant-rmb-who's law, something will always go wrong, haha. speaking of which, i wonder how mike and javin's japan trip is working out. they're almost due home(this coming fri). Dinner with geri baby on monday, 9th april, which was our 22nd mth together! we went to nydc wheelock place for dinner, then walked ard town before heading home to watch After Hours and Desperate Housewives! we're tv junkies, haha!
haha, Geri acting cute..
Happy 22nd month! :)
Im gonna post up some pics of my msia trip in the next entry!
