New Song
Anyway, this song, which does not really match with my blog interface, is great. Haha... I just love how Justin Timberlake sang in this song... totally soulful and SEXY. Omg... gotta see the MV as well. It's from Timbaland's new album, and it's kind of normal for him to get people to collaborate on his songs. It's the way he does his music! And I must admit I love his style! Abit like Lil' Wayne, whoever he collaborates with, the song will mostly be a hit. Well, at least it hits me.
This song called "Carry Out", just sound so sexy overall. Haven't seen the lyrics yet though, but Im sure it wun make too much difference. Still love it. Been loving this kind of music lately, 50 Cent ft Ne-Yo "Baby By Me"; Timbaland ft Katy Perry "If We Ever Meet Again"; Taio Cruz "Break Your Heart" and the list goes on... they are pretty techno, pretty fast beat too. They definitely have that "make you remember the lines" part, probably that's why Im so addicted to them. Music just lifts my mood everytime!
What will happen when I go clubbing?

Doctor Who?
I watched Torchwood because of Captain Jack so I wanted to know how he became immortal, so had to go back to Doctor Who. Afterall, Torchwood spin-off from Doctor Who. So went to watch his first episode on Doctor Who, the 9th Doctor. In the end after his 5 episode appearance on the 1st series, went on to watch the 10th Doctor's series as well.
This Doctor Who series is a sci-fi series based in Britian. Partly why I'd love to watch it coz everyone is speaking in the British accent! Haha... anyway it has been going on for decades! Al lthe way from the 1st Doctor. It's a series about The Doctor, (doesn't know his own name, just calls himself The Doctor), and his adventures in TARDIS, his so-called spaceship. Basically he is a Time Lord and travels all over the world through different timeline as well. Kind of like time travel. His main purpose is to travel and defeat alien forms that try to destroy the Earth. Basically each episode is about facing different types of alien matter.
He has humans as travel companion to help him along the way. And about the different Doctors? Well, that's the most fascinating part. Time Lords have the ability to regenerate into a new form whenever their old form suffers fatal wounds or something. Basically instead of dying, they get to regenerate. But the downside is that their whole appearance will change. Kind of great for the series if they want to change the actor eh? Haha... brilliant. The latest Doctor is the 11th, and his series start in April. All the Doctors have this similar trait that they can remember their past in the other Doctors' forms, and obviously they are very smart. I think they have a very quirkly personality too. The way they speak makes sense, yet not something you will hear as a human. I dun think I make sense there, haha!
Anyway if you're interested in sci-fi stuff, do catch Doctor Who! You could start from the 9th Doctor like I did, because there was a filming haitus between the 8th Doctor and the 9th. The 9th Doctor will be great to start off I think. The rest b4 that would be a little 'old'. I dun think I was even born yet when they filmed them! Utube is a great source and how I spent the past 2 days and ytd the FULL day watching. Spent the whole of Monday afternoon looking through wikipedia as well. And boy are there a WHOLE LOT of info there. 9th Doctor only has 1 series, thats Series 1, 10th Doctor is series 2-4. In the middle of those there are special episodes like Christmas Special etc to tie in the series as well.
Overall, I just love the British humor. So different from the American and other kind of humor. Love it!

Shiseido
Having now possessed the Shiseido Pureness skincare range, I'd like to try and see if it works for me. If it does, it may be my new skincare range! Not too exp too... I was expecting a $70 figure for both on the receipt but in the end it was in the mid $20s for each item. It's like at least $10 cheaper than outside? If it does work out Im gonna befriend someone who travels alot heavily. Haha... of course I can do the traveling too ~v~
Just went through the box of goodies I packed when I came back from Korea. Inside are all the freebies that the individual cosmetic/skincare shops gave when we bought so much stuff from them. They are great for traveling but there are so many and I can never travel that much in the next few years. Gonna figure out the purpose of each tiny bottle b4 I start using them. Mind you most of them are in korean!

19 HRS
Back to the ARSENAL game. Another difficult win too. Who said the run-ins would be easy?! Why can't Arsenal just get one easy game to handle and just score for fun? One is all I asked. West Ham went into the game thinking about their next game against Wolves, so pretty much its Arsenal there to win it comfortably. Had the best start when Denilson scored in the 5th minute of the game, but they didn't follow it up with more goals. They were on the back foot until Vermaelen got sent off for straight red. It was harsh in my opinion and my only worry was he will miss the next 3 games! For some reason I wasn't worried with this game at all. It would go either way. Either we lose the game or keep it 1-0 and win it. It helped ALOT when Almunia saved the penalty. His only job for the night as goalkeeper and he did very well with was that save. It proved vital.
Arsenal came out alot stronger and committed. They were 1 man down but they played really well. Zola, West Ham manager, brought on attacking players and really played for a win. For awhile West Ham held possession and kept Arsenal under pressure. You could sense the tension in the room as me and bro watched on. We didn't say a word during that period. Fortunately they held well and were able to create a few chances too. None resulted in goals though, but up came Cesc when he won a penalty for Arsenal. He was so cool and calm throughout the whole penalty procedure. I could barely watch. He shot left as Robert Green dived to his left. 2-0. you could sense the relieve in the stadium too! I was definitely relieved and the tension was gone. ANOTHER hard fought and well deserved victory indeed.
Throughout the 2nd half I was worried about Vermaelen's suspension. Some people say its 3 match ban, some say 1 match ban. I went to The FA website rules and saw it was a 1 match ban. Hopefully it stays 1 match. Playing away at Birmingham is not easy though. They have 1 of the best home record so far in this season. Arsenal fans also worry about the Barcelona CL match 4 days later. Vermaelen will be able to play that game but the problem is Sol Campbell. Obviously if both fit, he will be picked ahead of Silvestre. The problem us Sol may not be able to paly 2 games in 1 week. If he plays at Birmingham, he may not recover in time for Barcelona. I wun be surprise if Song plays alongside Sol at Birmingham. I'd rather have him along Sol then Silvestre. You need at least 1 quick defender in the pairing.
Whatever it is, I suppose Arsene Wenger will take 1 game at a time and he probably knows best at who to pick. Birmingham is going to be tough, just hope Arsenal can start well and maintain that level throughout. The team did well in the 2nd half and special mention goes to Clichy with his hard-working and solid display at left-back both offensive and defensive, Eboue too always look a threat whenever he ran at oppositions, Song who did so well in his defensive midfield position in 1st half and filled in well with Sol from the 2nd half onwards, Denilson for the goal and interception of ball from opposition when needed, Almunia definitely for the penalty save, Captain Cesc for the composure from spot kick and his leadership in creating plays up front. Even Sol did well to cope with Carlton Cole and the other West Ham players... Hopefully the players can carry this huge momentum and finish off the remaining 7 games in style, by hook or by crook.
Finished off with Nadal's match who seemed to be in cruise control after winning 1st set, but he completely lost his concentration and lost 1 game with too many errors. Third set was close with neither side able to break. As the games in 3rd set began to accumulate on both sides, I had a growing feeling that Nadal would lose, especially if it went to a tie-break. Somehow that woman's 6th sense kicked in and as soon as it went into tie-break, I knew he was gonna lose. And indeed, he deflated in that tie-break and totally lost the plot. Ljubicic did well to hold until 6-6 for tie breaker and he probably sensed that he could win it. He was the more calmer player and played so well for those crucial points. Nadal had a chance to finish the game in 2nd set but it was too late. This was his best chance at winning a trophy with most of the top seeds now gone out. If he had won, he would have faced Roddick in the Finals. Still a good opportunity to win. It didn't happen for him though. Fortunately he had another final to take care of, and that's the Doubles Final. He and partner Marc Lopez were facing the World No. 1 pairing of Nestor and Zimonjic! No one expected Nadal and Lopez this far because they came in as Wild Card. They don't even have a solid ranking to boast of!
Naturally the pressure is on the no. 1 to win, but woah did the spanish pairing took them by surprise! Nadal was so solid in his serves, Lopez also did well in serve despite losing 1 game point in first set. The crowd were on Nadal's side too! Fortunately for him, being so famous in his Singles career had helped him gain more recognition than even the World no. 1 doubles pair. The whole crowd were cheering and rooting for Nadal and Lopez the whole time!! Of course when you have people like Nadal on the other side of court, you have to worry. Nestor/Zimonjic weren't able to contain Nadal's power shots and lost in 2 straight sets. What a way to comeback for Nadal! He has won Doubles trophy before so its not new to him. somehow good Singles players always seem to do well in Doubles too. Kudos and congrats to him and Lopez!!

Test test...
Test test...
And so Im here with the newest interface.
Not sure if this font would work though,
shall give it a try till someone can't see it.
Anyway I'll have to keep my posts short now.
If not will make my blog super long.
Been attracted to montages and photography lately
that's how I found my background pic.
Nice right?
May change over time if I find new ones too.
Just to keep my blog abit more updated. Haha!
The color scheme still abit off though,
way too many colors to choose from...
I'll probably find out more when I post more,
as the newer posts will overtake the old ones.
By then I should be able to tell if
this color and font fits the blog or not.
Just found out ARSENAL is facing Barcelona in CL.
Of all teams (bar Man Utd) we had to play against
defending champion Barcelona.
Geez... that's the hardest draw anyone can get!
ARSENAL will definitely be more outsiders to
qualify pass Quater-Finals now.
Barcelona are a very strong team,
with World Player of the Year Messi in there,
boy it's going to be THE match.
Will still fancy our chances though.
We wun know till we play them!
NADAL has been playing REALLY well in tennis too!
Service improved, he even became more aggressive.
Good on him to get to Semis too!
Plays Ljubicic on Saturday... good luck Rafa!
