take a bow
PAU!! I had to curb my hunger.I didnt burn down my kitchen.
Instead, I am proud to present my 1st ever 'dish', spun up in
the middle of the night!
Yes. I am delighted at my own achievement. Maybe it's time I work hard
on my culinary skills.
Eh.. I have that on my new year resolution list for couple of years already and it's still there till today! Haha!
WooHoo~~~
Mee Sua cooked with Mushrooms, Egg & Meat.

kudos to val
"If you bloody mess with me you stupiduglypieceofnothing, I will fucking burndown your house and my friends will be sure to supply the kerosene by
the millionlitre. You will also have more than just homesweethome ruined
but that - the rest - is a surprise.
Sometimes I wonder why I have so much anger and vengeance in me, and it's when I look at people like you that I understand why I cannot be at peace.
Watch your step bitch, I'm right behind you breathing down your neck. Trust me, I won't be leaving you alone."
Ha! Don't worry. Above's quoted from one of Val's.
NOT ME! *Hands up!*
*She was Raarrrrrrrr-ing. Don't mess with her.*
Kudos to her...

in details.......
As promised earlier in my previous entry few hours ago, here's a
breakdown of my past 2 days.
Fri
Came back after training. Met the guys after their Premier Celebration at ChinaOne BUT slipped off to MOS with Pau 1st to have Farah, Robin, Adrian and Friend's company! Drunkard Kelv and Jack came with Hairul.
Not bad a place thou. But it's always that company that matter the most thou!
Got home at 530?, All thanks to Farah who sent us home safely and early!
Sat
Woke up at 530?pm to my shock!! (See.. I was really punctured from training and plus the nightout.. hehe)
Recieved SMS from Kelv jio-ing for SEAAAAfood dinner in JB! Met at bout 10, passengered with Robin & Shirley for about 45mins before we reached the Restoran at Kulai to start the food rolling with Dexter&GF and Lawrence&Wifey.
I tell you. The servings were really humongous! Took me 10 mins to just finish one sweet sour pork rib thoroughly! The food were really Yummylicious filling us to our MAX! The glasses they served in were like 2litres each la!! 2 times the size of our usual sugarcane glasses! All that only cost the 8 of us $212ringgit!!
If Terry saw what we had.. We(Kelv Rob Cooks) will be DEAD! haha.. Shhssss....
Proceeded for 2nd round of feast at Geylang for Durian. Ehhhh.. I WATCHED them eat. And also the latenight roadside show we were enjoying between the Mercs cabby and his passenger.
That wasn't the end man.. We went shopping at Mustafa!! Our favourite Hangout/Playground!!
Got home at 5AM!! And I woke up at 130pm! *Phew*
I am done. I wanna watch TV now.

punctured for sure
I am REALLY exhausted.Just like a deflated tyre. 'Punctured' is the right word to describe me now.
Haha!
Even coach said I am tired!
I badly need the following:
Good Massage. Good Rest. Good Food. Good Time.
Now, waiting for the call to get outta for the night with the rest of the gang whom I last saw minutes ago!!
Gotta catch a power nap! *hehe*

empty tank
My patience level is zero.For who you may ask.
For the team I answer.
And perhaps myself too.
As simple as it is.
If you have any queries to make, ask the coach. Not only for the benefit of yourself but the others in the team who may have bubbles above their heads.
A change in position will only make you understand the needs of that particular position better. You don't just play that one position of yours only. Hockey is a versatile game. You may be needed to stand in for anyone, anytime, anywhere!
Hais...
Raaaaaarrrrr~
I am tired of persuading people to stay on, not to give up, to keep fighting etc. I am stopping that for good already. It's your choice. You made the ultimate call. If you think you have had enough, then do what you deem is fit.
Mine will come soon too...

stay away
Last night, I went to bed with a 'Everything Pissed Me Off' mood.RaaaaaR~~
Wanted to blog before I called it a night. BUT the Blogger website just refused to load !
Legs were taking a toll of me the entire yesterday.
Was supposed to gym but people started pulling out. I could have done it at club since I was there, if I had known earlier. And not have travel all the way down delta and missed dinner with the other Tans.
Watched the guys' friendly and my worry-lines started forming again. If only ... Whatever la.. Some are just contented to be in the team ...
RAAAARRRRrrrrr~~
And I dreamt that I drank Banana Juice with Milk. Of all things.
And the 'Everything Pissed Me Off' mood is still hanging around today.
Stay away.

*Centralized used to start like NOW NOW NOW!!! But eh .... Hmmm....*
Posted by Cookie at 12:07:00 PM
title is title
Playing W-O-F online for the past 2 nights has been myself, Pau n Kelv's latest addition!We just called it a night!!
The screen hung on us and we decided that it was a sign to send us to bed! Haha!
I am so gonna have leg cramps in my sleep later. Even a short less than 5 yard walk to the kitchen for a drink is a problem now... 2 days straight of 10x50m & 10x20m is definitely good. I am loving it!! Whee!! Training earlier was great too. We are moving finally! Well.. At least.. *_*
Countdown to 4Nations - 16 days *erm.. freaky!!*
Hmm.. How on earth am I gonna drive tomorrow with these legs! haha... Wish me luck!!
And I have to say - Tomorrow is NO hockey day. Strictly NO hockey. But I am going gym! My 2nd session this week!!
* I need a new pair of running shoes.. who wanna sponsor me?? Haha!!! *

wish upon a cookie
It's so much better & easier to play in the guys' team.They have the thing call - COMMUNICATION , which the team lacks badly.
And yes, I have a swollen knee as confirmed by physio. I gotta start using measuring tape to measure my knees every now and then. With ice-ing on it too. Ohh.. And not to forget the nerve & joint stretching for my aching back.
Agreed upon 2 goals to be met by end of Aug with Terry earlier. *Gosh*
I am tired. Physio-Massage-Gymed-Strengthening-HotColdDip-PhotoHunt-Training took a toll of me.
Good Night.

pain - my good friend
Was told to be more observant on my knee by Cormac.So, with the constant tinkling pain since last evening. I took a closer look at both knees earlier when I woke up.
Oh Gosh! My left knee seemed to be more swollen!!
And YES. Im having a painful-swollen knee today.
Gym-ed earlier with Farah despite that pain! I only did once for last week and this week. Gotta increase number of sessions next week!
Bet some don't even go at all la.. Like they care and bother. Well done and keep up that good work ya people...
Anyway, I still want to repeat myself once again...
Some people out there just don't deserve any form of respect.
Haha!!! *Sick of all this shit..*
Don't assume. *bleah*

honesty - good / bad ?
During my wed's review, Doc Cormac asked me not to be SO honest with him!Ha!
Look.
He just added MORE tablets of Glucosamine on top of those which I have yet to complete from the last visit.
So now, I need to constantly remind myself to 'take 2' before meals.
And if you so happen to be meal-ing with me, do the necessary ya...

Some people out there just don't deserve any form of respect at all.Don't think too highly of yourself.
I am not referring to you.

Feeling damn SORE in my shoulders and back. Cannot move much and feeling way lethargic!!! Shandra did such a good job this morning loosening up those knots in there!! I almost surrendered and threw in the towel under her elbows but perserved for the sake of better times. Hehe!!
A very BIG thank you to her!!! She is gooooood!
--
Today's visit to hospital earlier was rather quiet. God, please continue to watch over my friend.
Do you know. I have many times chanced upon conversations and blogs of people saying how much they hope to be hospitalised so as to have a good gauge of how many friends they have.
Nurdee and I just agreed that these people are just plain ignorant of the real feelings of being cooped up on the hospital bed. And also the people affected somehow. What were they thinking?? *Gosh*
--
What I saw this morning on my bus journey to SSC got me childhood reminiscing..
This granny with her granddaughter in uniform - on their way to school...
I thought of the times gramps or granns will pick me up from school and the long walk home. Me walking side by side with them, once a while falling behind or leading them by steps. Hearing them calling, "Slow down... or Hurry up...." as we reached the junction just before our block!
Hehe.. I missed school with fetchings...

Day: TuesdayDate: 11 07 06
Place: SRC Sportsman Lounge
Company: Kermit my Lappie
Mood: Grateful
To start off, I shall hereby announced the appointment of my lappie's new name - KERMIT, with effect from today. *_*
HELLO to Kermit people~
This morning's driving at heavy traffic Ubi was horrendous. What made it worst was that I was only half awake!! I dragged myself out of bed after an early complete knockout last evening after surviving the whole day without sleep.
This is specially for Yeong Puiyee: CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
Yes, I was really half awake and even after my driving, I actually missed my Cityhall stop while sms-ing Meiting who self proclaimed that she was the distraction!!!
Yesterday's at the 2006 Commencement for Fen, Ludovic, Rena, Lionel King and Minh made me missed working with the gang at OCR more.
The M-language by Mariana Sylvia Suzanne and myself and gladly accepted by the rest was hilarious la!! Take a look at some of the names in office...
Cookie Tan to Mookie Man
Sylvia Loo to Mylvia Moo
Johann to Mohann (melayu tak?)
Fred to Mred (Bread?)
Ludovic to Mudovic
Jessie to Messie (messy??)
Shermaine to Mermaine
Suzanne to Muzanne
Liz to Miz (miss?)
Joyce to Moyce (moist??)
Bernard to Mernard
Ovidia to Movidia
WeeKit to Meekiat
Santie to Mantie
*Reason behind the M-Language is the M-trend of Meihui, Mariana, Marie and the new Melissa in OCR-CE.*
And, my turn to don the robe will be in 2 years time but I have already taken the liberty to wear Ludo's mortar board! But he kindly allowed too!! Haha.. Also suggested to Fred to use Mr Loke's 'Congratulations to the Class of 2006' played during the ceremonies as SMS tone!!!
Hehe.. My focus has gone off and my mind has gone blank!!
And I shall end of today's entry with some pictures Fred has kindly shared on MSN sharing folder feature. I learnt a new feature!
Ivan: The PH machine is on MC today... Must be Pickle's fault.

Pasta Free For All
ITALY is the world champs!!!!!!!!!!
*They are the champions They are the champion~~~~*
Group of us lugged all our bags full of laptops and food to Robin's place to catch the WC Finals Live. We ended playing Fowlwords, watching The Eye 10, playing Xbox, updating softwares through the 'night'... And worst of all, we SNACKED like no body's business... IF Terry were to see us junking away (Ben & Jerry's,chips n salsa, prawn crackers, thick yummylicious chocolate cake, sodas, maggie mees) he will so gonna kill us at trainings.... HAHA!!!
Match was super exciting!! Penalty awarded and converted for France 6 mins into the game... Italy equalized after 10 mins with a long corner kick... Zidane got sent off for heading an Italian in his chest! Game ended in Penalties... Fuuuyooooo~~~ Needless for me to say anything else unless you didnt watch it. And if you really didnt, go and read the articles online..
I just got back not long ago... so tired but cant bed ... cos need to get ready for 2 Commencement Ceremonies.. Fen's and Ludo's... haha... I am so gonna STONE the whole day in the hall .... Wish me luck...
Anyway... Mat Noor is bouncing back very well!! Keep it going DUDE!!! So proud of you... You are doing well ya... Speeeeeeddddddddddddyyyy recovery.... And you will be home soon!!!

finally....
Plopped myself right in front my lappie (realized still haven give it aproper name!) at 6pm and still here at 210am...
Started with abit of MSN-ing, before bidding my goodbyes with the intention
to get some sleep. But ended uploading all the pictures from 2weeks ago's
O Bar-ing and Sentosa Gathering.
The fact that Mat Noor seemed to be getting better, sent off bits of worries in me.
Keep Fighting My Dear Friend!!! Doing well DUDE!!!
And guess what.. Without much realization, 2 months of holidays have already zoooomed past me!!! Oh gosh... I'll be starting school in exactly one month's time!!! And yesterday's registration of modules totally didn't work out well for me! I didn't get my ideal timetable.. I am hoping for better luck during the Add/Drop period... Please please!!! Give me that better luck next month!!!! *Sulks*
Reflection for the last 2 months:
Before I proceed, this below picture (ought to share) taken during the Sentosa outing depicts our young girls' reflection on the last day of holiday!! Haha!! Facing the sea with all their worries about incomplete work or perhaps haven even got started work!! Haha!!
Anyway, I have practically BUMMED myself away doing the following:
EAT SLEEP PLAY HOCKEY... What a life.
Premier Season is over and my weekends are so empty now. Weekdays evenings are packed with trainings. July's gonna be a Chiong-all-the-way month before 4Nations. I have so much to say about some stuff which I dun wish to say here. Certain afternoons are spent for sure with Physio and Massages at SSC. Already started filling up my morning slots with driving lessons. Yes.. My dad has kindly sponsored so Ahemz... Well, I am NOT earning this holidays... The miserable amount I get from tuition goes towards bill payments. Some afternoons are spent helping out fen with her school team at their training/games. Also, gyming has also taken up some slots off my afternoons. (Still trying to maintain the twice weekly sessions.. So far so good!!)
So, that's basically how I haven been spending my days...
And I finally completed way overdued errands (Minutes, photos, letters etc)... Phew... Gonna mail it out asap...
Now I have typed too much.. I am exhausted and I shall bed soon!!!
Not forgetting this:
Dear God,
Please Please Please still continue to keep your eyes over my friend.

thank god
The doc said you tried to SCRATCH your nose today!!Mat Noor!! That's so so so YOU!!!
Me & Farah just looked at each other and SMILED! This is such a good sign!!!
Oh my... I thank god for his constant watching over you...
Posted by Cookie at 7:43:00 PM
mightly lord
Dear Lord up therePlease watch over him
Let him pull through this
Have not been blogging consistently for awhile and one thing close to heart has happened.
I just want it to be back like how it used to be. I want to see Mat Noor spotting his usual smile on his face. And not lying on the bed motionlessly & helplessly. My heart sunk. It cried. I wanted to hold his hand and tell him to be strong. But I am afraid that touch may be painful for him. So I just stood there and told him to be strong & get well soon. And that he has brought many of us back together at this point of time and we will all be here for him as he fight his way back.
