University and Spurs

Life/Football~

So for those who are still unclear of my whereabouts, I am currently studying in University Kebangsaan Malaysia, or in English, National University of Malaysia. Have to admit, at first going there was not as glamorous as many would think. Well, its not. However, it is not that bad. Well, its bad at first. Haha. Okay, I need to stop doing that.

Its bad but then again, there are some positives from the whole place. Before I went, I had the impression that people here would be rather, err..traditional? thinking-wise I suppose. But I was wrong cause I got to know many really cool people. Well of course there are those that are rather quite traditional but yeah, its nicely balanced.

The thought of me not getting to go to Singapore to attend the National University of Singapore still hurts but that window of opportunity is now tightly shut so I should do like what all sane human beings would do, and just get on with life. I for one would know a lot bout what would happen if we dwell in the past, so I'm so not gonna do that again.

So yeah, UKM isn't that bad. My faculty is rather small but the people there are friendly. But then again, there will always be those who are a little 'kiasu', ah when I say a little, I actually mean a lot. Haha. Sucks lah to have such people in the faculty. Its not actually a bad thing cause it builds awareness among the students but really these people also build loadsa amounts of guilt in the more laid back students like me. Haha. I wouldn't want to mention names lah, but for now there are just a few of this 'kiasu' people. Why do I say 'just for now'? Well, I believe as the finals come closer, there will be more people like that. Haha. I personally don't think I am a brilliant student and no this is not a sign of me giving up. I am not a quitter and I don't give up but I do not see why I should be competing with this people as my goal is to just to graduate. Sad to say, I do not think Law is my calling and I still believe that I would shine in the future, 1st class honors or not.

As for my friends here in UKM, I think they are really awesome. Dependable, yeah of course. Funny, totally. Random, not so much but some of us can be really random at times. Haha. Its been more than 4 months I think? and so far I do hope we could finish the 4 years together. I wouldn't wanna do my 4 years with anybody else other than this guys. Well, some of them might be a little extreme when it comes to studies but ah, its Law, I won't blame them. I was never an over-achiever so I will need to adapt I suppose. But then again, I love them nonetheless! =)

OKAY, Serious business! TOTTENHAM! if you're not interested, stop reading now!

COME ON YOU SPURS!

I hate it when I don't get to watch my team player. HATE IT SO MUCH. I've always had this feeling that, whenever I don't get to watch them play, they would lose. And that has almost happened on a few occasions. In fact, it happened against Wigan and West Ham already. Horrible. I am the 12th man and I will always be my team's 12th man. I need to watch them play and UKM's connection just cant take it! Aargh.

But anyways, Rafael Van Der Vaart! I mean 8 million pounds? Wow, a steal if you ask me. United fans, eat your heart out! Haha. He is absolutely brilliant. Whenever he plays, the whole team wants to play. No offense to the entire squad but I think right now he is the best and is making the likes of Jenas and Lennon look like rookies. So yeah, back to my point, when he plays, everyone plays and when they play, they would play better because they know every second they spend slacking off, they know they are an inch closer to losing their place in the first eleven. This season is going to be awesome, I know it and it sucks to not get to see them climb the table! I cannot wait to get back to Penang where I will never miss a game!

And oh yeah, theres been news bout Manchester United and Real Madrid going for Gareth Bale? What nonsense. No offense to United but I think the years they spent stealing Spurs players are over. Carrick, Berbatov. If we hadn't sold them Spurs would have been a recognized force much earlier. I have said it before and I will say it again; Spurs are now at the same par as United. I know that don't really mean much because Spurs should be at the same par as Chelsea and not a team that has problems scoring against mid table sides. But thats the fact, Spurs can't win games against teams like Wigan and West Ham just like how United can finish the game against Sunderland and Bolton. Haha. So yeah, this season I cannot wait for Spurs to meet United. We have beaten Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea in the past few seasons but never United. That day will come and I know its coming nearer and nearer.

Spurs til the day I die! COYS!
