i don't know why, i just feel so tired out by service learning

stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid service learning

i don't know what needs to be done, i don't know what needs to be organised, i don't know what ideas to choose
i just don't know anything

aaarrggghhhhhhhhhhh!
and of course ms k will scold us for whatever reason- that's already become a given

so what is the probability i will retain my sanity given that ms k will scold me no matter what?
P( sanity retained | ms k scolds)= 0

hahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahh
i don't know what i'm laughing about
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

and of course there's also the fact that some people don't get it despite every single bit of info i've provided! it just made me so MAD!!!! i've sent everybody e-mails detailing the committees, the budget, the timelines, the itinerary- everything! and some are asking me funny questions. haaaaaaah... you don't think i'm irked by this stupid service learning? hello, if anyone should be irked, it should be me.

okay, sorry, i'm just befuddled and frustrated by stupid service learning

haish

hey

i've just been feeling so tired and busy this week, i haven't been able to update this blog. In fact, i completely forgot about this blog...

everyday, the routine is: wake up early, go school early, line-up early (royal k's orders), go class, suffer, go home late, check e-mail and moodle, sleep, wake up, do homework, sleep...

and it's become such a part of my routine now to sleep from 6 to 9.30 or 10pm, then wake up and do homework till 3, then sleep again. some nights, i don't even have the time for a nap; it's just do work till 4 and sleep.

uuurrrggghhhh- that was me stretching. just so sore...

anyways, being the service learning representative has put things into such perspective. before, i was just super scared of ms k when she scolds. but now... well, i'm not exactly immune to it, but i've developed a resentment to over-ride my fear of her whenever she scolds me. so i don't feel bad about being scolded now (unless i feel responsible towards my classmates for the scolding), i just feel that she's being unfair to us in not giving us a say. and there's also the fact that the way she scolds is somewhat funny, as borge pointed out... haha

okay... got loads of homework to do... and i have tuition tonight...

i know this post is not particularly informative. i'm just to indifferent to write too long. except that helping syaz with malay dance was so much fun! i miss malay dance so, so much. invite me again! i'll come when i can! =)

For ME, we're supposed to take two photos, one depicting a school value in practice, and not.






HAHAHAhahahHAHAHAHAhahahHAHAHA

happy belated new year everyone!!!
the move from year 2007 to 2008 was a smooth one
i mean, nothing untoward happened on 1st Jan, and there was no trouble adapting to the immediate change in years
one day it was 2007, the next it was 2008
but afterwards....

school life has changed alot
classes have picked up pace, teachers are becoming more strict with my class (and sometimes unfairly so; they just have this presupposition about the class and react violently towards that)
the S in DFS has left :'(
and with danielle doing council duty, it's just me, pat and ly left to each other

i think this year can and will be classified as a "no-life" year
we have exams every four weeks
yes, exams, not tests
one whole block of exams for every single subject we take

as if that's not grating enough on our nerves, we'll be living through constant paranoia in school, now that we have Royal K as our CT
*sighs*

and i have tuition, two classes: maths, by this crazy person, and econs by my brother beloved
which i don't think will constitute as tuition, though
and i now have to study hist at least once every two days to be able to keep up!

i profusely thank god that this will be going on only for another 10-11 months
(unless i get Us for the block test and have to be demoted to year 1, at which point i will promptly self-destruct and either kill myself or quit school then and there)

the week before school started was such bliss; such undisturbed heaven,
spending time with my cousins every minute of the day, and going to escape themepark, vivo, terminal 3, the beach, the playground...
and now reality has set in, and life's suckiness has finally deigned to show itself
aarrggghhh

D-F(ina)-S

went on an outing with diana and syaz today
syaz and i were late meeting diana... sorry, beb!
lol

exchanged gifts, and then we ate!
we did nothing untowardly today
just walked round bugis, and arab street and bras basah
my feet ache at the end of the day, but what the heck
shouldn't have worn heels- i wanna buy flats!!!
(but money no enough, unless anybody's got second-hand flats in good condition, in size 8/9 to sell to me at a cheap price... anyone? anyone at all?)

i wore my sister's $6 top from hong kong before i realised it was falling apart at the seams quite literally
such bad quality sewing, but what do you expect at $6?

anyways, tomorrow i'll be sleeping at my cousins' place till sunday/ monday
yay!

maybe i'll be able to finish my homework there
maybe? what maybe?
of course i won't
hahah
and to add to that, i'll be missing arsenal's game against everton
:(

and to add to that, my father's discontinuing our contract with scv
so no more arsenal!!!!
*bawls* *howls* *climbs up the building and threatens to jump off it*
nooooooooOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
no, not my arsenal! not my beloved arsenal!
arsenal is my life!!!!! :'((

arrgghhh
i'll have to persuade him to do otherwise
i have to!
he's taking away my life....

fina-la-drama-mama
hahaha

fabby died!!!!
i woke up this morning/afternoon, and he was lying on his side!!!
*bawls*

his fins was stuck in the filter earlier this morning, but my mum had extricated him and he was fine
his tail was bleeding but other than that, he was swimming fine
then my mum put him in a separate container, and shortly after, he died...

oh no!!!
now i have only one oranda goldfish (the white+ red growth on head variety) left
but at least hlebby looks strong now

darn...

fina-la-dida

p.s. let's have one moment of silence for poor fabby aka fabregas, who was such a brave and confident oranda goldfish, and had little fear of fingers pressing against the side of the tank.

p.p.s. now i'm thinking of buying a fabby 2.0 to replace him + three guppies + another fighting fish. fish never enough!

it's 2.30 now, but i cannot fall asleep
i've just been so distressed that i've been crying and crying
all because i read about what mrs. claudine tan is going to do to us next year

if we don't get a C grade or above for our holiday assignment, we won't be allowed to enter lit tutorials

gosh
i've been getting an average of d/e grade for lit, with a few Cs somewhere
and it got me thinking: how am i going to make it through this crucial year of jc
if i won't be allowed into tutorials to learn?

especially since the teachers i have seem so determined not to help us
yes, you teach us the content, but how about teaching us how to pass?
teachers are there supposedly to help you through your studies
and yet here they are threatening not to teach us if we make mistakes in our work

never before have i felt so hopeless going into a new school year
even in secondary school, where there are way more subjects to take than in jc, i've never felt so hopeless

now i'm beginning to think i'm not cut out for school at all
no, not even poly
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know
i don't know

that claudine tan is such an abominable, hateful person
she's not a teacher, no matter what her job title

so arsenal won the match against tottenham
after a flat first half, they came back fighting in the second half
(though they weren't their best)

almunia saved a penalty! woooO!!!!
f* lehmann, almunia rocks!!!!
darn, watching arsenal play just makes my heart feel full to bursting!

and reading won too, so it's all good

except... one of my fishes is sick
one of the little red ones
he has a swollen eye, for some reason
all red and round

and fabby and hlebby (named after fabregas and hleb) are missing some scales!
how??

well...
i feel so drained
went to the zoo with my sister and cousins today
received superbly horrible service at that restaurant in the zoo
yup, that placed called forest fare
yea, i know we're just four kids
and the fact that we don't look rich certainly doesn't help
but shit lah, we are still your customers, patrons of the restaurant you're working in
and we're paying for your salary!!!!!
can't you give us a little more respect?
never have i been treated like dirt, such as this!
it totally left a bitter taste in my mouth
i couldn't enjoy the buffet at all (which, btw, didn't have that much choice! lousy... boycott!!!)
in total, we spent $103... what a ripoff! i hate that place so much
bleargghhhh

fina-la-dida

p.s. if you do decide to leave, i'll miss you so, so much!!! but you've got to do what's right for you... and if the path you're on right now isn't working for you, then maybe something else will work better... but i'll be so sad if you're gone!!! :( haha

i feel so guilty!!!!!!!!
gacckkk!
haha

today was supposed to be a day of grocery shopping only, at giant tampines
we were supposed to be done by 5
somehow, though, at 5 o'clock, we were not at giant... but at a pet store!
buying fish!
and we spent $200 on fish and supplies!
how???!!!!
all i asked for was a fighting fish
and suddenly my father got the idea of having a small fish tank in our living room
and the money poured down the drain just like that...
all this, from a request to own a $5 fish that doesn't require a tank or filters
haiyoh...

and it's not just that that we overspent on

we eventually did go to giant to grocery shop
and usually, when i come along, the bill rings up to about $100
which is bad enough
but today we spent $250!!!!!
oh my goodness!!!!
and just before that we'd pledged to tighten our belts and spend less
haaaahhhhhH!!!!!!!!

i feel so guilty
because out of that $250, about $80 was on unneccessary items that my sister and i put into the shopping cart
darn
i'm a bad daughter

bad, bad daughter...

:(
fina-the-unfilial

p.s. day of baking for hari raya tmr

p.p.s. full schedule from then on till tuesday... and school's reopening soon!
and my homework is still left untouched!!! @$!%&!!!

written on sunday night, 16 dec, but not posted till now due to stupid internet-related problems:

oh my goodness! i so totally eat my words
turns out hady did have a chance at winning asian idol!
i was so gobsmacked!
i thought mike mohede of indonesia would win
and i was rooting for abhijeet

but hady beat all odds to win!
i had him pegged down as the one with the lowest chance of winning
but he won!!!!
i guess asia has more girls than i thought... heh heh heh

in other, just-as-exciting news, arsenal beat chelsea!!
yea!!!
former-chelsea man, arsenal's captain william gallas, scored the decisive goal in the 45th minute
the entire match was littered with drama,
foul after foul, with a fight somewhere during the match that got lampard and terry of chelsea booked with yellow cards- man, such an eventful match

and francesc fabregas got punched by that bloody asscole (ashley cole of chelsea) at the end of the match
granted, fabregas did foul him, but why retaliate with a punch, asscole?
the arsenal fans hate you enough as it is

anyways, poor liverpool lost to ManUre
darn
i was rooting for liverpool to win
i thought torres would come through, but they didn't make it
=(
so bloody manure are still hot on arsenal's heels...

fina-colada

p.s. we picked up my cousins from australia at the airport today, and had a popeye's chicken feast! yaaayyyy!!!

i hope indian idol abhijeet wins!!!

i know jaclyn victor sings best, but i find her so annoying
she sings at people, not to people
and no feelings at all!
and the competition is Asian IDOL, not Asian Singer, so i don't want to idolise someone who annoys me

on the other hand, i like the type of songs abhijeet sings, all those hindi songs
hahah
comes from watching all those hindi movies

hady... no chance, so why bother?
(my goodness, i feel so bad for stating the obvious!
sorry, hady fans!)

fina-colada

p.s. maths tuition now... ugghhhh)

i'm so in <3 with swedish blueberry jam!!!

hahah
i've just had my dinner of julie's butter crackers with blueberry jam
yum!
i think i downed around 20 crackers without pause
and i want more!
but i'm getting a sore throat from all the jam, so...

the jam is seriously so sweet, with a ton of blueberries
we got it at ikea, believe it or not
and at only $4++!
cheaper than the usual french kind that comes in that tall, hard-to-access bottle

asian idol going n right now, so catch ya later!

day before yesterday was my birthday dinner
nowhere special though
i'd wanted to eat at sakura international buffet, because birthdays usually call for buffet
instead, we ate at the breeks cafe at causeway point

not bad
i had a chilled australian rib-eye with black pepper sauce
for something that's $21, you'd expect something bigger
but at least it made up for it in its thickness
one thick slab
okay-tasting, i guess
the fish was nice, though

in the end, we paid about the same amount of money that you'd expect a buffet for 4 would cost
(unless it was at the carousel; that would have set us back about $200)

an okay birthday, i suppose

although, something detestable happened that day
some stupid, fucking insolent kids threw sand through my living room window!
the sand was poured into an old glove, and unceremoniously hurled through my window- whilst i was sitting underneath it!
rather, i was lying down on the couch underneath the window
so i got a lot of sand on my bare legs
and the entire living room floor, all the way to my dining room, was littered with sand

ROOOAAAAAARRRRR!!!!
that made me so mad!
well, it made me sad, at first
in my mind, i was groaning and whining: why today, on my birthday?!!! life sucks!!
haha
then i came to my senses and realised that i was supposed to be angry
and angry i am!!!!!!!!!!!

stupid, insolent, incorrigible asshole, juvenile delinquents!!
my carpet, couch, table, all dirtied because of you!!!

p.s. ice-skating soon?

p.p.s. two days late: arsenal beat steaua bucharest 2-1! not only that, robin van persie and abou diaby have returned to the pitch!!!

p.p.s. my internet has gone bonkers, so i can't stay online too long, else it's just switch off.

... happy birthday to me...

I got back from HK last saturday evening, but i hadn't really gotten the chance to go online at all since the computer had been annoyingly dominated by the sister and brother. Needless to say, the trip was a humongous amount of fun, dolloped with a bit of irritating (which usually comes about when you're travelling with parents who don't know anything about the country you're visiting and thus have resulted in you being utterly lost).

I'd wanted to shop a lot, using $300 of my own money. Unfortunately, I'm not a good shopper. So i fell way below budget, and only bought a few things. Damn. Haha. And I only shopped in the cheap stores- like the Ladies Market, which isn't even a store at all, lol. But it's ok, because it meant I could buy more things! Which I didn't; I only bought a bag, a jacket, an Arsenal jersey, and 4 tees. WTF?! Hahah.

Of course, when you're in HK and Shenzhen, you must do as the locals do, which is buy fakes. So we did. I've never been much of a fake-goods-buying-type person, but it's fun, laughing over the funny spelling mistakes on the bag- like Christian Diar, or Dolge&Gabbana, and Ciderella. Hahahaha. I got a Dolge bag (I'm not proud of it), and that's the only fake brand I'll ever buy. Hahah.

Anyways, the trip there began with a little bit of a hitch. Okay, a lot of hitches. First, someone, other than I, was caught accidentally trying to bring a pair of scissors onto the plane in his/her bag. Then we found out that the tvs in the plane were out of order, which meant the flight there would be boring as hell. All I could do to occupy myself was to continue my knitting (which is doubly boring). Then I realised I was sick, with a runny nose that didn't seem to want to slow down (and did not slow down until four days after).

Add all those problems to getting lost, and finding it difficult to find halal restaurants (because they were very far from our hotel), and my nose peeling on thursday from blowing my nose too much- and you have a seemingly very sian trip. But it was fun.

Things I enjoyed:
1. the cold, even though my nose didn't appreciate it too much. Singapore felt too warm after that, even in the air-conditioned airport.
2. the fact that I was in a different country, and people there didn't look like me
3. visiting "window of the world" in Shenzhen, where there were many replicas of key monuments of the world (including the merlion!). So i got to visit Paris, Spain, Italy, England, New York, etc.
4. riding all modes of public transportation available, such as a cab, a public bus, and a train.
5. shopping for cheap stuff that you can get for a very good bargain!
6. sitting in the window seat in an airplane, and looking down at clouds below me <3 style="font-weight: bold;">Things I found... interesting:
1. the deplorable hygiene of the people in Shenzhen. Everywhere, people can just start digging their noses in public. And they blow the phlegm from their nose on to the floor!
2. the fact that people in Shenzhen just throw their trash anywhere. After eating: no dustbin? No problem! Just throw your satay stick onto the floor!
3. pedestrians lack of regard for oncoming traffic. People in Shenzhen cross the road anytime they like, even in front of a fast-moving van.
4. that people always ask if we were malaysian or indonesian, and look surprisingly surprised when we say we're singaporean- even our tour guide!
5. that sales people try to get us to buy more expensive stuff when they find out we're singaporean

Shenzhen was... interesting, for sure, but it added a little spice to the trip. I would definitely repeat the whole trip over again!

Of course, I didn't just buy things for myself. But unlike my trip to Beijing, I didn't buy souvenirs for everybody I know, just a few key people. My cousins, my aunts, grandparents, and: Dan, Steph, Syaz and Diana. Nothing mega expensive though. I am still a student.

p.s. Arsenal lost! as did Liverpool! ??? what freakish results, man. Arsenal lost 2-1 to Middlesborough, and Liverpool lost 3-1 to Reading??!!! So now no team is unbeaten in the BPL. Hleb, Cesc, Flamini, Robin, Abou- come back!

p.p.s. check out the picture of me and my fab4 arsenal jersey: here. the guy who printed out the tee put it on his site. and he gave me a free arsenal badge!

hey hey hey!
i'm in the airport!

i'm so super bored
i've more than an hour left before i have to be at the gate
and i don't want to spend my money even before i've left singapore
so...
people-watching it is?

hahah
fina-colada

p.s. bye all!

three posts ago, i was very sore over arsenal's terrible performance at seville
but i've thought it over
and i've realised, i have nothing to be sore over

arsenal is still a young team, trying to find it's footing
and on that day, many of the first team key players were rested or injured
clichy, hleb, flamini, adebayor, gallas were all absent
and fabregas had to be taken off because he sustained an injury
but clumsy senderos (i do pity him for't) was playing
even gilberto has become a bit slow due to old age or inaction
and denilson and armand traore- well, they're a couple of teenagers; they played okay, but they just couldn't commuicate to each other well
i'm not releasing them from blame though; they're arsenal players now, and they need to learn how to play the arsenal way
but they have alot of time before they reach their prime at 23, so they should be given a chance

so i don't feel at all bitter anymore
in fact, that game's significant contribution lies in the fact that it allowed a few second-string arsenal players to shine
nicklas bendtner, for example, was a stable lad, with fine control of the ball
(and he's still only a teenager!)
and he has been complaining of not being given a chance to make it into the big boys' team
so this was a great opportunity to show what' he's capable of- and he did wonderful
and dodo (eduardo) did fine too by scoring the first goal off a pass from bendtner

now, i do realise that my posts nowadays revolve mainly around arsenal
i don't know why- i just am so crazy over arsenal!
hahaha
they're just a fabulous team to watch, and the more i watch them the more i've invested my feelings in them
and the more i've invested my feelings in them, the more i love them!
lol

my loyalty to arsenal was questioned about two weeks ago by the bro
he said: why don't you just go support reading since you watch so many of their games?
i was darn insulted!
hello, who's the one who's willing to wake up at 3/4 in the morning to watch arsenal and pray for them to win?
me!
where were you?
sleeping still, only opening your eyes to see the score once in a while
harrumph!
i don't watch just reading games; i watch whatever matches shown on the football channel
(especially if there're good-looking players! and, as it turns out, there's one player i find good-looking in reading lol. but i digress...)

reading is just a pet team
a team i'm fond of, not a team i'm crazy over
of course i saw aww if reading lose
but i don't lament their loss like i do for arsenal
and my prayers are not with reading, they're with arsenal!
so i suppose it's grossly unfair to compare my love for arsenal with my fondness for reading

hahah
i've been meaning to get that off my chest for a while
and now i have, so i feel better

i haven't packed my bags yet
and i'm leaving tomorrow!
nor have i cleaned my room
nor finished knitting a scarf
arrgghh
so much to do
so much wasted time spent procrastinating
and a good sci-fi book is waiting for me...
oh my goodness, i haven't packed!
hahaha

adios then, mi amigos

fina-colada-flying-tomorrow!

Yay, Arsenal won 2-1 against Aston Villa!

In the first half, Arsenal played like the Arsenal I know and love; dominant, with neat passes and all that. Even though Aston Villa got the lead initially at 14++ minutes, I wasn't feeling that much worried since Arsenal were playing like the champions they were. (Yay.) Then Matthieu Flamini came and thumped in a nice goal, and then it was Emmanuel Adebayor's turn with a nice header.

The second half though... was so-so. Aston Villa came back more determined than ever, and put pressure on Arsenal constantly. However, Arsenal stayed strong and held their lead. (Another yay.) Arsenal has never lost a game in which Emmanuel Adebayor scored, so it was kind of expected.

Yay Arsenal!
Other than that, I've nothing else to say. Good night/ morning!

p.s. This is my most proper post yet- uppercase letters and full stops where they should be. Does it seem more appealing to read? I don't know...

oh no, i just remembered that i haven't paid steph back for her 2 bucks!
oops!! sorry!

anyways, today has been a day for knitting, and horlicks. not much else went on today. *yawns* but sunday and tuesday were fun...

sunday: went to two weddings. not much fun about that, except for looking at fabulous wedding decorations.

The first wedding was my mum's brother's adopted family's wedding for their daughter, and it was fabulous! The father of the bride is a chef at suntec city, so the food was fantastic.

He and his siblings made all the food themselves, and it was totally hotel/restaurant fare: A long table just for desserts (more than 20 types!), and a separate table for food! There were fruit tarts, and quiches, and little hors'deurs (if that's how u spell it), and cheese cake, and traditional malay kuehs, and loads more! My plate was full even before i reached the other half of the table. (i never did get the chance to walk the entire length of the tabel; no space in my tummy). The main course was nice; black pepper fish, and fried kway teow, and i-don't-know-what-else. Dessert definitely outshone it, though.

And although the wedding was typical void-deck style, it was decorated so nicely- chandeliers, and coloured lengths of cloth spruced up the ceiling. Round tables, chairs with satin and gauze covers were used, and the dias was... woah! It looked like some rich person's living room, lol. The entertainment was not typical karaoke. No, they had traditional malay art forms- dikir barat, and malay dance. Fabulous(except... it was a bit crowded...)

Phew, that is one long description. The second wedding was typical, except the dias was the pretty flower-garden-gazebo type. Lesser variety of food though.

tuesday: DFS ice-skating outing!
yay! with dan and steph, went to kalland ice-skating rink. and man, it was so cold that you could see the water vapour just swirling in the air! and it was pretty thick, too. You could barely see the other side of the rink. It was so fun; dan tried to teach us this two-foot spin thingie, but we couldn't spin... but dan was in her element! so nice to watch! well, at least steph and i learned to swizzle and twizzle (or something like that)

then it was off to the esplanade for photo-taking op. I'd forgotten to bring my camera :( so i just knitted in that darn hot sun. We tried to take a photo of the three of us jumping in the air. It took many shots, and many unglam photos (me, particularly), but we made it in the end. yay-ness!

after that, a little unwinding at mrs fields, where we had orangina and two snapples. and then it was off to home

i wanna go ice-skating again! But the three of us are finding it hard to coordinate our schedules. aww... steph's in melbourne now, then next week i'm off to hong kong, and the week after that dan's off to bangkok. Darn. Then after that there's the rush to finish all our homework...

oh well, maybe next year?

p.s. arsenal lostin the euro cup game, but it's ok
at least it's not the epl, and we've already qualified for top 16 anyway
darn
clichy was injured, as was hleb, and fabregas (oh no!), and flamini, and diaby, and god-knows-who-else
i just hope fabregas and the gang recover soon
go cesc! and go arsenal!
allez arsenal!!!

p.p.s. notice the new format? i just wanted to see if it was easier to read. feedback, please!

sevilla 3 - 1 arsenal

:(

arsenal was totally having an off-day this morning
i have no idea why, they just didn't click

passes sloppy, mistakes made repeatedly
sevilla really deserved their win over arsenal, i admit
if i wasn't an arsenal fan, and this was the first arsenal match i've ever seen, i would have thought that arsenal was a sucky team
but they're not the rest of the time

i quite like sevilla as a team
except for a few rough players, the rest were quite fine
and their manager looks like a decent character too
their fans were well-behaved,
and quite nice to clap for francesc fabregas when he was substitutedand was walking off the pitch
what with him being spanish too
if i were a spanish la liga watch-er, i probably won't mind supporting sevilla

dodo scored first
but then everything went downhill from there on

i was so freaking disappointed
really
why?
why were they so terrible today?
i don't understand

is it because hleb, flamini, van persie are out?
is it because noob players were playing?
is it because they switched off, knowing that they didn't need to win this game, having already qualified for the next knock-out stages of this competition?

grrrrr
armand traore and phillipe senderos especially
so many mistakes
they gave the ball away to sevilla so many times
granted, armand traore may be only 18 y. o.
but he's playing with the big boys now
and senderos just doesn't defend very well
*sighs*
even veteran players like gilberto were totally off
mayhaps it was a conspiracy on his part
he wants to move out of arsenal, to juventus, so maybe he wanted to sabotage arsenal?
hahah
what a long shot

theo walcott, when he came on, was a breath of fresh air
great pace, nice runs
he's played first division football quite regularly, so maybe he's more experienced that traore
and nicklas bendtner was stable most of the match


but terrible overall
simply terrible
sevilla deserved their win
arsenal deserved to not win
*sighs*
so tired
had to wake up at 3.30 to catch this match
though it's not exactly a waste of time, it has been very disappointing

so i'm going to sleep now
good night/ morning

fina

luis fabiano of sevilla, on arsenal, before the match:

"Fabiano admitted that he is a big fan of Cesc Fàbregas, but believes that Arsenal's biggest strength is the unity that have.

“The best player for Arsenal is the team," he said. "They have a good defence, a great midfield and up front are people who are capable of scoring goals at any moment. We cannot give them any chance.
I have watched some of their games and their great star is Fàbregas.
For me he is one of the best players in his position in Europe. We will have to stop him.”

How i wish arsenal showed all this quality in the match...

p.s. sevilla is quite a good-looking team
hahah
must be because they're a spanish la liga team- loads of tall, dark, and handsome people

p.p.s. will post later about yesterday- ice-skating= fun!
