countdown to exams!

exams are starting in 7 days time! from next tuesday morning. im as unprepared as i was first sem here, when i had a slack attitude. and im planning on catching a match on the weekend before the first week. last year it was collingwood, this time round its the STORM!

storm plays at home against the rabbitohs this saturday. now 2 points off the top after losing the top of the table clash to manly, melbourne has to rebound without kaufusi, crocker and slater! should be pretty exciting if i watch it. night games always have a much better atmosphere than day games.

watched the champions league semifinal, where arrogant milan showed better finishing to exact vengence on liverpool. i can't believe the manner milan players were putting teams like man utd and liverpool down before the match. and i dare say milan was outplayed by liverpool, with pennant running riot down the right. but liverpool had only their finishing to blame, esp gerrard, who should have stepped up on this big occassion. i couldn't believe what pippo said about the freekick, and even more so how a macho athelete could crumble on the floor after taking a hit to waste time so blatantly. i really identify with kewell, that look on his face was priceless.

chelsea have finished off this season rather dissapointingly, considering the talent they recruited in the summer. at the end of a long season, the stars were not the expected signings sheva, ballack or ashley cole but 'dirty tackler' essien, obi mikel and kalou. not to mention the dependent drogba, who must surely take the tag mr dependable from frank lampard, who look exhausted after playing so many full seasons and a world cup. i think he needs a break of 3-4 months without football. he looks devoid of creativity and drive, and at many times duplicates makalele's job by dropping to collect balls from the defence and returning those balls. looking forward to next season, although it is worrying that the african cup of nations will deprive us of our best performers this season. we need to sign a centre back and another backup striker desperately, but the bank account is no longer as accessible as it once was.

playing soccer now at carlton gardens once a week. pretty fun because there are few people so its mostly 3 0n 3 or 4 on 4. lots time for us to get on the ball.

attended MBS info session yest, quite inspiring, but i don't think i can qualify with my limited work experience. that italian from marketing was not helpful at all! idiot. going with kevin to the MAC info session today.

got hit by a bloody indian taxi driver, while stationary at a red light. asshole tried to get away without giving me his driver's licence. piece of shit said no damage, but in the end gave in cause i threathened to report hit and run. took my pen without asking for permission out of my hand. bloody asshole without any manners. taxi drivers! dogs of the earth.

doing OB notes now, really boring! well going home soon for some exciting times. hope weian has done our FA by then so we can print some tees! and hope we have lined up everything to do some photoshoots. have a fun job lined up and lots of food to eat! and father bought mother a bday present - a boxster! hope i get insurance so i can drive it w/o father in the car! need to drive the 308 too, been back twice and haven't driven it once.

ok better get back to some studying now!
