Truth
I read this particular post about Liverpool, saying that the gulf between them and Manchester United are growing, and that they are finding it hard to atract star players, and bla bla bla.
I'm not too much into the article though, I'm more to the comments given below. As usual, loads of it will appear, but what's in the context is interesting.
All it took was one Pool fan to defend Liverpool, and make a comparison between Rafa and Fergie, and thousand other United fans hit back. Best part is, they hit it where it hurt the most. Ain't that human?
However, I do have to say my bit here ('cause something went wrong with SkySports and I can't comment), and hence the title.
I have to say, after supporting Liverpool for so long (since two World Cups ago), I don't know what's happening at Liverpool. They underachieved and Houllier (previous manager), and they are not any better under Rafa (current manager). Yes, Champions League in 2005 (and I have to say, NO ONE can forget that night), and FA Cup in 2006, but there's all there is. Few major signings like Torres, Reina, Benayoun, while many flops like Voronin, Dossena, Nunez, Pennant, and letting go of good players like Alonso, Luis Garcia (and even Crouch for crying out loud). Thing is, they can't sack Rafa, 'cause they have no money $$$ (apparently). All they can do is try to work around the budget, and hope to get the best out of it.
So us Pool fans try to live with the current situation, watch Liverpool get helplessly beaten by the likes of Fulham, Wigan and Porstmouth. Fans still try to defend Liverpool, but this is what I'll say:
STOP DEFENDING LIVERPOOL LIKE A SPOILT CHILD GETS DEFEND BY HIS/HER MOTHER.
Seriously, it's getting annoying. I'd love to hit back at the United fans, but I don't hit with soft punching gloves. Point is - THERE'S NOTHING TO HIT THEM WITH. Ohh, you want to tell them how FT9's goal scoring rate in the BPL is compared to that of Rooney's? (Which is actually almost the same - FT9's 16 goals in 19 matches is almost the same rating as Rooney's 26 goals in 29 - total of 0.8 goals per match, equavelant to almost 1) They wouldn't care!!!
They'll also tell you, "We sold CR7 to Real and we're still fighting for the title, quater-finals of the Champions League and already a trophy in hand (League Cup), while you sold Alonso, out of group stage of Champions League, out of FA Cup and League Cup, and now hoping to win a second tier European Cup (which is often overlooked)." What are you going to say to them?
Call me a hypocrite if you like, but this is the TRUTH. REALITY. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a Liverpool fan (don't ask why), but some things are just inevitable. So let's face it.
Anyways, I'm just curious about the timing that the author used to bring THIS up. To say that Pool fans always living in the past; well, don't United fans do that too? You CAN'T tell me that United fans did not brag about how many times they beat Liverpool before Liverpool went on a 3 consecutive winning streak against United. I'd call you a liar.
Also, just because Liverpool lost THE match against United, some author comes up and say, "Ohh, gulf between the Bird and the Devil is too big." Urgh. Really. Would you have said that last season? Then they'll say again, "you past-glory dwellers. Forget about last season. It's this season we're talking about."
My give up. All I can say is, either Liverpool change the owners, and change a new manager, or stick to Rafa, and I'll say, "Good luck."
Ps: Saw this Twitter post from a Pool fan that says, "It's a pity Greenday came up with American Idiot instead of "American Idiots" (referring to the Liverpool owners).

Busy month of March
Sorry that I'm not able to blog much. March is proving to be very hectic indeed. Wouldn't want to go into details, except for the fact that I have two assignment deadlines, two midterms, and three presentations. Beat that.
Best of all, I'M SICK. Yes, yours truly can never get away with this phantom of sickness. I must be a tleast sick ONCE a semester. Myself to blame really. Lack of sleep, too much work and stress. But then again, really? I could have taken care of myself better, but heck, I'm sick now, so now I have to worry about getting better first. =P
Anyways, weather has been crazy. As we have been complaining since the beginning of the year, let's complain again: One moment it's shining so darn hard, before you wished it rain, kaboom, and rain falls. My dad told me that it's a cyclic thing, so there can be no complains. However, it does prove indeed that global warming is changing rapidly.
Speaking of which, YET another earthquake today, a 5.6, this time in Cuba. It's the fifth one already. Phew... And Australia and China went through some tough wind too.
Well, that's all for now. Hope I'll have time to keep you guys posted.

Red Weekend..
It was a good week for teams in red for these respective sports: Formula 1 and football. Ferrari got a 1-2 from Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa to kick off Ferrari's season in style, while Liverpool rompted to a 4-1 victory with classy football. Although MU and Arsenal won too, I'm not going to talk about them. Meh =)))
Anyways, here's picture's to enjoy. =)

Fernando Alonso seals victory and the Bahrain GP to win his and Ferrari's first race of the season, with teammate Felipe Massa finishing behind him. Emphatic.
Alberto Aquilani reels away in delight after getting his first goal for Liverpool in front of the Kop. It's been a long time coming indeed. =)

State of Confusion
I play Left4Dead2 too much, that when I play Counter Strike again, I tend to forget it's Counter Strike. =P
For example, shoving. In L4D2, players are allowed to shove using the right click on the mouse. However, in Counter Strike, right click serves for only these few purposes: (1.) when using normal weapons, it serves no purpose (2.) Zooming with rifles, and (3.) putting silencer for M16, which I wish they had that in L4D2.
So, I'll give you this case scenario: Imagine a Terrorist suddenly comes out of no where, and you're used to shoving zombies away when you see them. You're holding an M16, and you right click, wanting to shove the Terrorist away.
You die. =)

My choice =)
In this life, God gave us the free-will to choose.
It's up to us, to make that right choice, and follow Him =)

Restaurant City
Recently I got addicted to this one very famous game in Facebook: Restaurant City.
Yes my dear readers, the very game yours truly here once condemned it. However, due to "unforeseen circumstances", I got addicted. But when I started playing, I found many weird and funny stuff... Honestly, I don't know how to describe it. Check it out yourself. Anyways, here's a preview.
(Sorry. I wish I knew how to take pictures of that game and post it here. It'll make more sense.)
Hence the name of the game, you basically start your own restaurant. In the restaurant, there are a few basic things like chair, table and a stove. The jobs available in that game are: janitor, chef and waiter. What you need to do is to keep your employees happy, and keep the customers happy too. That way, your game will be successful.
I wouldn't go into buying the ingredients to increase the options in your menu; I also wouldn't go into the part where you can plant seeds to grow your own crops, or visit other people's restaurant to get free ingredients (only upon first visit), 'cause really, these things ain't what I want to talk about here.
So here's the thing (Sorry, I know it's just a game, but I can't help it, so readers who are Restaurant City fans, forgive me).
Number 1: Desserts. In the game, ice-creams, cakes and banana-boats-alike are apparently "cooked". You better believe it. The chef ACTUALLY "cooks" it (using the STOVE mind you), and the waiter serves it. Wao.
Sitcom: CLAP
Number 2: Washrooms (This will sound embarrassing I'll have you know). According to Restaurant City, you must "create" washrooms so that customers who require it can use it (again, in order to keep your customers happy, and increase your ratings. No washroom, no rating, which also means your rating wouldn't drop either.) So this is what I did. I bought a toilet-bowl, and put it IN.PUBLIC. Talk about total quality embarrassment. I mean, there is no particular section where one can put the toilet bowls there, and let the customers use it. People actually do their business IN.FRONT.OF. other customers.
Sitcom: "Woooooo"
Number 3: Still on washrooms. When you reach that stage where you can create washrooms, one of the things that comes to your mind is separating the genders. Restaurant City allows you to buy a sign to indicate which washroom belongs to which gender. Guess what?
Sitcom: Ask "what?"
THE MALES CAN STILL GO TO THE FEMALES' WASHROOM, AND VICE VERSA!!!!!!!! TOTALLY LAUGHED MY ASS OFF WHEN I SAW THAT!!! =P
Sitcom: Laugh "Ah haha ha hahaha ah ho heh heh ahha ahh ho hee ha haha"
Number 4, and the last one (I think): As mentioned earlier, you have to feed your employees to keep them happy and working hard. For your information: each worker has only a maximum of four hours to work. The moment an hour of work is complete (or close to an hour), the workers will slowly slack off, hence decreasing the rating of your restaurant. You'll have to feed them to get them re-energized.
So indirectly, what does the food serves as?
ADRENALINE, GRACIOUS ME!!!
Sitcom: "Huh?"
Yes! Imagine it! Just like people taking drugs to get on a high, or to move faster, or at least that's the fuction of an adrenaline. Urgh...
Sitcom: Hahaha
Anyways, there's all there is at the moment. Will continue observing and see if there are anymore "faulty stuff". Thousand apologies to the creater of Restaurant City =P
Sitcom: Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap
Ps: I stopped playing ^^v

Know this...
Isn't it funny? When your friend is there for you, you don't want their help. When you want their help, they are not there.
Isn't it funny? One moment this person tells you this, the next moment that SAME person tells you something contradictive.
Isn't it funny? One moment this person this person is totally happy, the very next moment that SAME person is totally sad. Vice-versa.
Isn't it funny? One moment this person is blessing people, the next moment that SAME person curses the SAME PERSON.
Isn't it funny? One moment they were friends, next they are enemies.
Isn't it funny? One moment these two were couples, next they are singles.
Isn't it funny? One moment this person is a billionaire, next the same person is a bankrup.
Anything else you want to add? Feel free... But don't we all know it already?
But know this: THIS IS LIFE.
It's just how you choose to take it.
Choice is yours? Hmm... Vagueness...
