Not caring who reads this mainly cause no one does.....
I guess much of my time now is spent thinking about my life.
Marriage? Career? Kids?
Seems I cant see past the present. What is the use of Hope when it seems like I am barely surviving....
Lets not talk about God..... Some things just dun get settled when life is in a flux. Dog Christian, good Christian.... bah humbug.....
I think when I truly have something to give thanks for then we talk.....
Tired....

After half a year of inactivity, I guess its time to update my blog....
Much has happened in these 6 months..... Changing church.... Learning how to be a good teacher.... Love, pray, eat....
I am in a state of balance but it just takes a few nudges from life to put me off balance and fall again....
Wishing God will be with me to help me go through this period of balancing....

I doubt anyone will see this so here goes....
Been a long time since I updated. Mainly because I am too lazy....
I wish that the tiredness will end and I can live happy and seek the Lord.
Too much has happened that is pulling back to the gaping hole in my heart. The solution is unknown. Is it a need for God? Happiness? Money?
A girlfriend? I got that one.... So what else can I do to recharge my spent batteries?
I need an overhaul....
God I need a recharge!

God You Amaze Me
I have been quite caught up in the world of good grades, money and general world things that I sometimes find the world is a sad place created by someone who really did not assume the worst of his finest creations: Humans.
After a bit of reflection and a lot of arguments with a lot of people, I realised God already knew Humans were a tad on the screwed up side. God lets things happen, Satan/Devil/Random evil and invisible Tempter whispers evil things; Humans make them happen. How interesting that our decisions determine what happens to us more than anything Satan/God/Fate/Fluke can do.
This week has been one of great joy and reflection. I have been quite blessed by the things of God and the people of God. Take my Food Tech quiz for example, I did not really study all that hard for it, but on the day of the test, God sent a few Sibs in Christ to come revise with me. Learnt a lot.
The test was good, I managed to do it though I missed a few questions due to bad memory.
God has helped me a lot in terms of FYP too. I have a great supervisor and 2 very funny FYP lab mates. Thank God for them.
Even my EMS test was good. Although I didnt study finish for the test, God made it such that whatever I learnt came out and He guided me the rest of the way.
God sometimes you amaze me!

I find it hilarious that UEFA and FIFA have decided to act on Chelsea's inducement on a certain Gael. The above sentence would sound complete like a 3 way fight over a girl if it wasnt that UEFA and FIFA are the governing bodies of soccer and Chelsea is a soccer team which is accused to inducing Gael Kakuta to breach his contract. Inducing? Its that something to do with vomiting. Well, after hearing this news, that was what I thought of doing.
First of all, what did the player do to breach his contract with Lens and what does it have to do with Chelsea? If a player decides to change club or request a trasnfer, it is legal isnt it? What breach is it? From what I read, its inciting the player to break his contract and sign for Chelsea. Since when is breaking a contract so illegal that you are banned for 4 months and the next company you signed for gets a hiring ban? If any of us chooses to break contract in the working world, we pay out the penalties and go work for someone else. Do you hear of any big company getting banned from hiring new employees because they hired a contract breaker?
Secondly, I think this incident is quite back dated because I seen Kakuta at Chelsea for 2 seasons. That means Lens had him on a provisional contract when he was 16? I thought you cant sign a player till he is 17? So what contract breach is this?
Thirdly, who is Gael Kakuta beyond the fact that he is French and is considered, by some weird reason, a Chelsea home-grown player? He seems to be a decent, upcoming wing player. It seems the above facts have prompted Lens to let jealousy and selfishness hurt their logic. If Kakuta was not going to be an upcoming player, I think Lens would have let things slide.
For those who think I wont be doing this if it hit Man U, Pool or Arsenal, you are right. But still I would be thinking, what matter of stupidity is this? Since when is the football/soccer world so different from the real world, that a breach of contract by an individual whose job scope is small have such a big impact on another comopany.
Come on! If you want to ban teams for influencing players to breach contracts, you can start with Real Madrid and then Man City after that all the other teams which buy players from other clubs.
Go Blues, Forza Juve and Barca

Transfers and Comments
The past week has been filled by transfer speculations and tapping ups by Man City and Real Madrid. My only comment about this tapping up is stop it. I know Pool, Man U, Chelsea and many others did it. Most of the time it pisses people off and you do not get the player you want.
Madrid's tapping up of Alonso is kind of an act of desperation rather than football sense. They spent 200 million pounds on players they can win the league without if they spent 40 million pounds on Albiol and Alonso. Pool are not going to lower the price and Alonso is under pressure to justify leaving a club where he won the Champions League to go to a club which will struggle to reach the quarter finals. Also I think Liverpool will win at least the league this season. Chelsea are in turmoil and rebuilding. Arsenal are broke and selling their experienced players to Man City and Man U are rebuilding their jigsaw. All if Alonso does not leave of course. Tough choice I guess. Better pay, "more respect", club with a great history in your own home country (That is like Notts Forest, great history but eh....), confirmed first team place, challenging a strengthened incumbent team versus same pay, "less respect", club with a great history in England, potential winners of the league since all the competition are weakened, will be rotated to ensure maximum performance. Greed anyone?
Man City's tapping of Terry is the one which I think is completely batty and malicious. Terry is the captain of Chelsea, the entire team was built around him to cover his mistakes and ensure the defence is tight. His departure will reduce his stature in the eyes of Chelsea and England because what can be more insulting than to go to a club with cannot offer anything solid except money. I admit Man City might well overtake Arsenal in the Big Four but it is miles away from Man U and even more so Chelsea and Liverpool. (I dun mean literal distance) There are so many other cheaper and more mobile centrebacks than John Terry like Lescott, Toure, Maicon, Carvalho, Wes Brown, Gibbs and many more. The only thing that this tapping up of Terry does is to try to tear Chelsea from within. Cause pay envy and cost the club additional money to prevent, someone who already earns too much for his own good, from leaving. I do not buy the pay rise thing because when you earn 600k per month and 300k pounds per month after tax, you are earning way too much. 3.6 million pounds a year anyone? What they need the extra 20k per week for? Feeding their entire family tree? Saving the Amazon rainforest from loggers? No. Buying cars they cannot control, eating meals which are neither filling nor nutritious and splurging on fancy clothes they wear to punch the local club DJ in.
I feel Man City should offer 10 million plus Micah/Nedhum for Carvalho. I hear he is better than Terry. Or they can offer Arsenal 15 million for Toure. Toure would jump at the chance to finally challenge for some trophy in his career.
I will give Ancelotti till December before I decide if he is incompetent or not. Scolari took 3 months to prove his incompetence. A.Grant a year. Mourinho was never incompetent though out of his league.
