Late Nights In, Late Mornings Up

Week's been pretty slack, due to most us completing most major events. Yet it is with great relish that I greet Friday, 'cos it means the weekend is coming!

So what did I do? Having booked out around 9+pm, I reached home circa 10+pm. Ate awhile, showered... then at around 12+am, I linked up with Adam at Tampines Interchange to hop onto his Gilera bike to go...play football at The Cage@Kallang at 1am.

Yes, play football at 1am.

Azhar had organized a reunion for the VS Maelstrom boys, and as usual, what better way to spend the time together as a band of brothers than playing football? The usual suspects were there, Azhar the pantat jack, eFinZ the now-Suria superstar, Ikhmal the now-skinny boy, Fid Monday, Faisal Band, Zulhairi who's also my fellow TKH team-mate and Sophan anak Suria nye boss. Completing the VS presence there were my fellow Clanner Adam, who's 2 years my senior, and surprisingly, the long-missing Mirza, one year my elder.

We played against some aggressive and highly skillful opponents, at a very,very high tempo. You can imagine the fatigue I must have felt, having just booked out after a week in-camp and having to run my legs off and avoiding sliding tackles at 1+am in the morning. We played till 330am, and called it a day. It feels great to meet up with the boys once again though! No time for girls, but for Maelstrom, I'll make time.

Had to wake up early the next morning because I had my bike practical at noon. And whaddyaknow? I met Azwani! I seem to have a knack of bumping into her at all the strangest places. At her school in TP, at Pulau Tekong, at IKEA, and now at CDC. Apparently its her first-ever bike practical, and she took the same lesson with me. And hahah! I finally managed to pass my Pract 1 after 3 times! Sheesh. Had to repeat Pract 1 twice before I finally managed to progress to Pract 2. Bummer. But Alhamdulillah, I did not take as long as some of my friends who had to repeat 5-6 times. I left CDC and made my way to my dad's car only to discover that...

...I'VE EARNED (earned?) MY FIRST EVER SAMAN !!! -.- "

Sheesh. My first ever parking summons or traffic offence in 2 years of driving. $30 bucks, down the hole. All because I didn't display a lousy parking coupon. Yikes!
Immediately upon reaching home, I left with Shahmi to make our way over to Kak Syai's new home in Compassvale, where our manpower was needed in helping to spring-clean the new house. So I spent my Saturday vacuuming, mopping and assembling the bed for the master bedroom. Pretty nice place I must say. Abang Herman bought tubs of ice-cream and we tucked in, before I left at 10+pm just in time to catch the Man U-Fulham game.

Speaking of which, United spanked Fulham's sorry butt 3-0!!! =)
With what was largely a reserve team, the goals came courtesy of Owen Hargreaves, Park Ji-Sung and... Simon Davies(og). Hoho.

Yet, Arsenal managed to equalize and maintain their position with the very last kick of their game. Someday...someday soon...
SNABS messaged me asking me to support her in her dance competition by coming down to Vivo Amphitheatre. Sorry babe, I can't make it today due to commitments, but I'll certainly support ya! Good luck! And I'm all for u too, Nis~...
