My mobile alarm was set and it buzzed me up from bed at 2.30am morning just 15 minute before the kick-off between Barcelona and Manchester United. Like most papers said it could be a 50-50 tie game but things had changed as what it should be. Barcelona was outplayed MU and won by 2 goals (2-0) in the end. It was hard to believe when Barca only had their first shot at 10th minutes after kick-off and eventually this first shot also brought them an early goal in first half. That's giving tons of pressures to Devil to fight back but it didn't happened.
Well, i can accept the defeat but was disappointed to see their unusual (weird perhaps) playing tactics and performance as they could have done far more better but not just for first 10 minute play after kick-off, before they were under attacked and losing ball possession rate in next 80 minutes. Devil could merely scored the opening goal at first minute and may turn the table around but somehow luck was never on Red Devil side this time. Obviously, their dreams was trying to enter record book as the first team win back-to-back European cup was now broken as they did that in last year.
Now after the CL final, the football season 2008/09 is already over and life is considered 'back to normal' for two and half months before new season begins in mid August again. I believe MU the Red Devil would reigns and rules again despite they didn't make it this time. Moreover they already won four silverware in this season and shall have nothing to lose after all.
Looking forward and see you in Bukit Jalil stadium in July (18/7) during the Asia Tour 2009 visit.
That was my first time watching drift cars racing after Formula 1 since 1997 in Sepang. I was invited by my buddy as her company is one of the co-sponsor for this event. I went with my friend and we spent almost entire day there for taking pictures at the drift cars and the racing queens / models. Well, it actually brought back my long-lost photographing hobby during teenage time with it's a nice experience using a Lumix DMC & Cannon DSLR cameras. Surely, the pictures quality is comparable between compact & DSLR cameras and we both were satisfied with the pictures we 'shoot' throughout the day.
Sandy Lam - the Diva is coming back to Malaysia again ever since i missed her small concert in Genting Highlands earlier. Her concert is crashing with Alan Tam-Hacken Lee concert on the same day itself, with the same location (outdoor stadium) and her concert was held at Putra indoor stadium. Imagine how bad the traffic could be as two groups of fans came from over the places.

Bagan Lalang is a coastal beach in Sepang district of Selangor state, it is the nearest beach from Klang Valley. This flat and seems long beach is popular spot for camping and picnic activities. According to official direction guide, driving from KL to the beach is taking 1 hour 15mins but i managed to get there in about 50mins with help from GPS locate device, by using Putrajay/Cyberjaya highway -> Sepang -> Sg.Pelek route.
It was sunset and low tide about 7pm, the beach was packed with people but it's hardly see any Indian, about 5% Chinese visitors and the rest are Malays. It could be the nature of surrounding areas are 'kampung' (Malay village) that probably made this beach as their usual 'hang-out' place for picnic, camping or jalan-jalan. During that hour, it was nice to walk as far out as possible towards seaside to enjoy the sea view.
dawn. Seafood stuffs such like 'Ikan Pari Bakar', 'Ketam Bakar', prawns.. etc are considered cheap, five dishes were only charged RM48.80 ! Imagine, it will only cost you around RM100+ for ten dishes... well, don't think can find anywhere in town. Surely, another difference is the Malay cooking style as it's really different from Chinese cooking. Some people especially Chinese may not able to enjoy the food because of the ways of cooking but I was fine with that anyway.
