Poem

Yao GMH,

Posted in my blog a good poem I got from the Straits Times. You guys may want to check it out. - www.agentnandha.blogspot.com

It was rather scrappy but it's a win after all...

3 wins out of 3... Not too bad for a start to the new season. I've always reiterated that Saha is good and once again, my acumen was right. Althought the win against Watford wasn't pretty, it provided some comfort for me. Hell!!! Do I need that dose of solace??? Yup... Lulu saw through me. I haven't being feeling really great for the past week or so. I thought it would be good that I allay any worries that anyone of you might be having by making it clear in the blog. Guys... There's no cause for concern really. I'm just missing someone that I shouldn't so that's bothering me a fair bit. You should know I'm very susceptible to mood swing and it will probably be over before you know it. Anyway thanks Lulu and Bro Ed for your care and concern. I feel really blessed to know you guys. Oh ya... Thanks again Lulu for driving us (me & xiaobai) to the vet. Really appreciated it. You'll be her half owner. LOl...

Glory Glory Man United!!!

If i could turn back the hands of time...

Pls bear with this post for a while...

It is now 0000hrs on 25th of aug...

And I told one of my friends some stuff in the past... just getting emotional...

I remembered during a trip...someone ask me "what's the most stupid thing that you have done in your life?"

At that time, my mind just went blank... maybe cos there were too many stupid things that i did..

But now i know....the most stupid thing is to let her go...even after 1 year 3 mths and 1 day.... I am still thinking about the stuff i did that day, the stuff i said that day...

So.... If only I could turn back the hands of time.... Things may have changed...

(if only i know how to put music... I'll play that R kelly song now...)

A shot at Fame

Ello ppl, Nandha dey here. If you read Tuesday's New Paper sports pages, they are looking to feature weekend warrior teams like ours. So on Mr Blackburn's suggestion, I've come up with a draft email. Supposed to tell them where we play, about our members and stuff. Please give me your feedback ASAP so I can shoot them a steadip email and GMH gets featured !!
Hello there TNP!

My name is Kumar and I am sending this email on behalf of my fellow football crazies - GMH, which stands for Gi Meng Hock, just a crazy moniker some of us came up with. So why should our team be featured?

We definitely possess passion and great love for the beautiful game. This team has pounded the courts and fields for almost ten years now, through rain or shine, day or night, injury or sickness, and even the odd policeman and nosey resident.

We play every weekend at the basketball court at Lorong Liew Lian in Serangoon, often fighting hard for the right to play on that popular piece of concrete with many other teams.

Our team should be a posterboy for harmony in diversity. - Our motely crue of about 16 has players who have been playing together over a range of different years, from 10 to just over a year.

A brief sample of some members - there is Amanda(yes, we have a pretty gal in the team!), a sporty lass who is just as passionate about the game as she is about life. Non-identical twin brothers Avan and Kim, who play like there's no tomorrow and through numerous knee ailments. Alvin, a talented and skillful player who currently plays for SAFSA. Karthik, a charismatic all-rounder who is a familiar face on Vasantham Central and the Tamil theatre scene. And Yussof, a bulldozer of a player whose other passions include martial arts and social work. We have fans of Man United, Liverpool, Barcelona, Blackburn, Newcastle and Chelsea. And not forgetting the S League - Balestier Khalsa, Albirex, Young Lions, Sembawang Rangers, Jurong FC and of course, the Lions! We range in age from 21 to 23, so we're a relatively young team with plenty of spirit!In fact, we just played at the Cage in Kallang last weekend(attached is the photo)

I think i've said enough about GMH for now;why don't you guys come talk to us if you want to know more? We really hope our team will be featured.

Yours Faithfully,
Kumar

Nothing Else Matters

Hello all, Kumar here. I figured its about time I started contributing to the blog and what better time than now!
I'm sure all of you will agree today was quite a happening day. The Cage was footballing ecstasy - congrats to the victorious Team A who narrowly clinched the title with 11pts. Of course i'll be biased and say my team, Team B, lost out narrowly on 9pts. To the 4pt back-enders, you guys should blame Selva for not turning up..haha. I thought your team was the strongest on paper, but the pitch is flat and the ball is round, so anything can happen. Better luck next time. Also kudos to sharpshooters Alvin Litmanen, Avan van Psychorooy and Amendi (wah, all the name start with A) for your individual 3 goal hauls and the courageous rocks on the last line of defence, particularly Ronin and Talen. And of course, thanks to Amendi for making it happen.

I always say "when there is a part 1, there is always a part 2" and it blew me away. I think I speak for Rashid too when I thank each and every one of you(literally) from the bottom of our hearts - Alvin, Amanda,Psycho,Lulu,Teh,Yussof,Terence,Teh,Ah Du, He Quan, Kati and AngHeng. A 22nd/23rd birthday party at a kids party room at McDonalds; only GMH has the genius and audacity to pull of such awesome feats! Hahah! The games were damn fun and everyone was such a good sport. Alot of people keep saying we're getting old 'cos we're into our 20s now, but I beg to differ. We're only as old or as young as we want to be and besides, our life expectancies are well into the 70s so we should all be looking forward to hitting the prime of our lives.

On a more personal note, I know I sometimes say or do things which don't go down well with people. I just happen to be an opinionated, strong-minded individual who trys to live with his many flaws and be the best damn version of himself for the people around him. I want to make a real difference to society one day. If you have a comment or point to make, I welcome feedback..haha. My favorite movie quote is "beneath this mask there is more than flesh, there is an Idea. And Ideas, are bulletproof." [V for Vendetta- 2006] - and i'd like to think I live up to that to a tiny extent. But the events of the past week did make me shed some tears behind my 'Agent Smith' shades on the way home today. This post is titled Nothing Else Matters 'cos that's always been my song for this clique. Its a moving ballad by Metallica whose lyrics describe extremely accurately how I feel about all of us. Once again, Thank you all very much.

Nothing Else Matters - Metallica
So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do never cared for what they know
and I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters

At Long Long Last....

What a vacation!!

It has been a long time since I blogged, so kinda think of writing one b4 going to bed. Recent activities had really driven mi crazy. Thanks to all of u that I am able to take my mind off things. It has been a long time since I enjoyed myself to the fullest, and the last time I can vividly remember was our clique bbq at East Coast park a few years back.

I had a great time in Taiwan, though Terrence was fucking naggy throughout the trip. But without his meticulous planning, this trip wont be a successful wan. And not forgeting Alvin who always entertained us with his usual crappy stuff. The sentosa trip that we went last Sunday was marvellous too, and I relish the thought of going there again to play my favourite beach volleyball.

I just came back from a play directed by our clique member, Karthi. The play was good, though it would be even better if he could improve on the subtitles. So Karthi, forgive us but psycho and I were kinda bored, and we had to make a quiet exit halfway for our smoking break. But the dialogue between Surai and Sudah nearly made me shed tears. It was like a film playing back of what happened between mi and her.

And guys remember our Batam trip next Friday. Msg me ur name, nric and date of expiry of your passport by Monday.

To her, if you happened to chance upon this blog, school is going to start soon. Hope the next time I happen to see u around in school u are really mugging with ur friends, at least dun let your parents worry about u.

Lulu

Let ur hair down and party.Cry ur heart out for all you want after that...

O~ Bar!!! What a night we had there yesterday! Maybe it wasn't my best clubbing session but it's certainly among the top few. Gone were the days when I would binged on alcohol and scour the dance floor for vulnerable chicks with the notorious Binghan. Of course I'm not saying that I dun drink anymore or look out for pretty babes; just doing them to a lesser extend. While we guys were deciding on what drinks to order, an Irish chick just came up to us and asked us to dance. We were all quite taken by surprise but it was fine as she was tall and kinda "quai". Since there wasn't any alcohol in our blood stream yet, we excused ourselves and made our way down to 7-11 for some beer to get our heart pumping.

After one big can of beer and few sticks of fag each, we were all psyched up and headed back to where the Irish girls were. Hell! were we glad to see them still around... Even He Quan got a taste of what it felt like to dance with an european hot chick. He must have been in euphoria back then. Hahaha!!! So can you imagine what a guy like me n benny would do??? We danced, hugged and took pics with her. As for me, I even got to piggyback her. Wow!!! How often do you get to do that? But, I felt that her thighs were a lil too hairy for my liking. Lol!!! Seriously, I think this chick was just so fricking high as she was almost toking to everyone on the dance floor and dancing with them. Well... At least she looked like she was having a blast of a time. What went on after that just got me to put on my thinking hat.

Coincidentally, I happened to see her outside the club with her frenz when i was queueing to re-enter. Guess what??? She was crying inconsolably, complete contrast to what she was moments ago. I didn't mean to eavesdrop but I managed to catch a lil of their conversation. If I wasn't mistaken, I think she just broke up with her bf. This goes to show that no matter what a false front u try to put up when you're actually very hurt deep within, the facade will eventually be broken. It may be under the influence of alcohol or recollection fo memories. Whatever it is, the pain is so physically there that you can mask it but you will still feel it. So why all the pretence and not try to forget it. It may be hard but as long as you put your heart and soul into it and think bout all the wonderful possiblities out there, I believe time may just heal. I'm certainly trying so I hope pple who kana kangtaos before will share the same faith.

Jet-lagged

Just returned from our clique outing in Sentosa. As usual, there was plenty of fun, laughter and injuries from the soccer and volleyball. I personally enjoyed the dog & bone the most, imagine if we had 10 players a side! Luckily the rain was temporary, as predicted by weatherman psycho, deadly accurate as usual. My bro also joined us for the first time in many years! (wasted she didn’t wear bikini, the only damper in an otherwise perfect day...) eh boh lah kong qiu.. However, her long-awaited debut in beach soccer lasted for approximately 50.32 seconds. Thus the nick Djibril Leong. Hope u guys liked the kinder surprise we bought for u from taiwan. It wasn’t easy picking a present for all of u guys so pls open it only when u ARE GONNA USE IT!!!

The taiwan trip easily ranked tops beside my tioman trip with soff. Here’s special thanks to Daniel and Terence for making the trip so enjoyable! Never in my life will i ever experience the full brunt of a typhoon on top of the world’s tallest building! Without daniel, i wouldn’t have been able to successfully order my chocolate milk tea with braised egg. (small personal joke i share with dan). And although me and him always tease and make fun of super naggy terence, we want to let him know that he did an immaculate job of organising the trip, booking the flights & planning the literary. Thanks TALEN!! Great job, me and dan really appreciated it! I think i did my part by providing round the clock entertainment to u guys. Thanks guys, it was truly an memorable and unforgettable trip i’ll never forget! To me, it felt as though we covered the whole of taiwan with our endless walking and night markets! Haha.. One small note, we suck at reading maps!

Now for Xmas in New Zealand!!

Yesterday, while i was on a bus, i was thinking aloud to myself in wat way can the bond between clique members be forged closer, then, one word came to my mind, PAINTBALL! Although i’ve never played it, i feel that it is the perfect game for team-building and character strengthening. i dun think anyone of us played it before, so it promises to be fun. Just did a little bit of research, the game play is about 2 hours, with 5 members on each side, cost is dependent on how many paintballs we want to shoot, i suggest 2000, so each person roughly pays about $30 to $40, very cheap considering it is a 2 hour game. And considering last time we paid $6 for a stupid 12 minute lasermania game. More details on www.paintball.com.sg. Go check it out!! Interested pls leave your names in the comment box so i can gauge the response.

I organise sure steadip! (remember st john?)

oh alvin, you are a genius, always coming up with new and refreshing ideas, the fulcrum of GMH. Haha..

On a less cheery note, for those who are interested in conspiracy theories, check this out man, i promise it will blow u away.
