jus little thoughts

Happy New Year ppl! Here's my first post of 2006. Well, while people are onto Narnia-mania, I'm just started wif Harry Potter! Haha, yeah, slow me. How long ago was it tt the first Harry Potter movie came out...I bought the first 5 books and watched the first 4 movies at one go, bought the dvd set for the first 3 movies =P. Didn't understand what's all the hype about Harry Potter til now, lol. I've jus started reading the books not long, almost completing the Chamber of Secrets(Duh, ppl are like reading Order of the Phoenix or Half-blood Prince le). Hopefully can keep the momentum going and finish the other H.P books I bought, haha.

Hmm, so fast and '05 has ended... the most busy year of my NS life(jus for my unit I guess, dun think other units are so busy, haha). First it was training in India back in March, then it was ATEC in May, NDP in August(dun forget we start trainining in June) and then some Ops duty somewhere in September. Just had my block leave last week and now about to embark on my journey thru the last 3mths of my NSF life. Just can't wait for it to end and get started wif uni('You'll miss NS when u get to uni' my seniors warn me, lol).

My 'career' as a Newcastle fan seem to be on the downhill(it's been so for 2yrs) since Grame Souness took over the helm at St. James'. Yeah yeah, he did save Newcastle from relegation...thank you very much...but he's definitely not the one to lead the club to honours, not even a top 6 finish in the EPL if you ask me. What about our dear Magpies talisman Shearer? Hai, the 'grumpy old man' certainly hasn't lost his touch wif scoring, but he's not even provided the chances to finish! I wonder if anyone notices a curse his partner has? His official strike partner is always injured! First it was Duncan Ferguson, den it was Carl Cort, followed by Craig Bellamy and now Michael Owen. Nt much to expect from them wif Owen out for ard 3mths, his lethal finishing will b terribly missed, even more important, the confidence(that they can win) he gives to the team to perform well. A top-half finish is all one can hope for from Newcastle, unless the chairman gives the manager the sack.
