Monday have to go home so late. grrrrrrr. Never mind. I'm gonna be learning Japanese next semester. Cool. Gonna hang out with the malay and indian guys because they don't have a background in chinese like me.
SOCCER
Sir Alex Ferguson doesn't like fat referees
http://sports.sg.msn.com/football-channel/article.aspx?cp-documentid=3625890
So Alex totally took out his frustration on Alan Wiley. Now I'm not the biggest fan of Wiley (If you can remember he didn't give voronin his penalty, resulting in a loss to the bums) but Alex Ferguson was being very harsh to the ref. He didn't do anything wrong. The calls were mostly ok. Heck, if it weren't for the ref Man U could have suffered a defeat at the hands of Sunderland. Think about it, Alan Wiley issued the red card which pretty much doomed Sunderland to a defeat (Even though they were 1 goal up). Man U just couldn't take the 3 pts. Dunno how Fergie can justify this statement.
Jeff Winter (from the article) was pretty harsh too. I know Fergie didn't need say those things, but scolding him like that isn't going to get anything done. I just have a feeling this is gonna be a huge mic fight in the upcoming days.
WRESTLING
Hell in a Cell seemed pretty good. Taker wins... but no jiu jitsu finisher. John Cena gets owned for once. But more importantly... DX wins. I think I'll get the DVD. If for nothing else, I'll get it just for the HiaC matches. Did I mention DX won?
On RAW, Miz won the US belt? what was the whole point of the triple threat match then? The Diva bowl was pretty lame at first, but I have to admit, seeing all their finishers in a row and, more importantly, Rosa's sick kung fu moves made it pretty fun. Hornswoggle give mini crotch chops to Chavo, epic WIN. Jerishow spoils the show when they run away from the 2 tonnes of humanity known as the Steelers offensive line attempt their first QB sneak in a wrestling ring. I was looking forward to that dammit. Didn't watch ,ain event, didn't feel like it.
Final Comment
Fergie is known for his (often successful) mind games with other managers. Now mind games with referees? interesting.................

Eventful Weekend
But too lazy to update, so I guess I'm gonna have to do a speedrun (In a blog? hmmm.....)
MOVIES
Cool movie, worth a watch if you're a action fan. More story then action though.
SOCCER
Chelsea 2-0 Liverpool
Sad part is L'pool played well, but Chelsea played better. Can't say Chelsea don't deserve the points though, they took their chances and got their goals. On the brighter side of life...
Man U 2-2 Sunderland
Man U played like crap. Never in the lead, and they were at home. Took an extremely lucky shot to get back on level terms, but at least they got it before the 97th minute.
And more importantly...
Wolves 0-1 Portsmouth
Portsmouth get first points of the season! A landmark achievement. Still, I think they'll beat Derby County's record, if you know what I mean.
GAMES
Great game, it feels the same from last year, but somehow... slightly different. Haven't tried manager mode yet. They took out the experience points limit from last year, which is a good thing. Probably gonna get winning eleven to see which one is better.
The NBA games are coming soon, oooooohhh.......
A screenshot of wikipedia's page. Look at the arcade release date and the console release dates. WTF!? almost a 2 year gap! Namco Bandai had better give us an absolute masterpiece.
oh yeah, Capcom giving update to SFIV, Super SFIV! Now why did they go and reuse the title? They've come up with so many weird names for video games, I mean think about it, Warrior's Dream, Second Impact, Millionaire Fighting, Lost Planet (seriously how does someone misplace a planet?). And now Capcom reuses a title? interesting....
Final Comment
Wow, that was faster than I expected

What A Haul
Followed mother to Kovan, went browsing Comics Connection and ended up buying 2 games at $60!
GAMES
Ooh, Battle Fantasia, a relatively unknown fighting game created by Arc System Works, creators of Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. It doesn't follow Arc's style in a sense that it is slow paced and doesn't take the battle into the air too often. It feels more like Street Fighter. I would have rated the story but... silly me I went and got the Asian imports, urgh, no English to speak of. The boss, The End of Deathbringer, is terribly cheap, but thankfully he can be exploited relatively easily. SNK Boss Syndrome? Definitely. He's like Igniz. A tough ass at first but once you figure out the formula to beat him he's pretty easy.
Hey! I actually got KOF XII! All these days I've been whining about how it costs way too much for what it features. Was I right? Definitely. The game is basically a direct arcade port to the consoles. They threw in 2 characters, Mature and Elisabeth, and a practice mode, that's about it. The arcade mode isn't too amazing either. 5 stages, that's it. So how far did SNK go with their SNK Boss Syndrome this time? Well... they didn't go anywhere. I mean you can't go far with SNK Boss Syndrome if you don't have a boss in the first place now can you? That's right, SNK have done the unthinkable, they didn't add in a boss. Personally I'm okay with this. I'd rather have no boss than fight Omega Rugal Mk II at the end.
Don't get me wrong, I've been ranting for so long but the game itself has a great and simple system, and the graphics are definitely a spectacle, but in my opinion falls short to BlazBlue's graphics. Final verdict? Purchase only if cheaper, do not get at full price (I got mine at nearly half price)
These are pretty much only first impressions. Anything new I'll report back.
Final Comment
No more trivia for so long... should I put one next post? I also feel like making a top 10 worst cases of SNK Boss Syndrome list. Decisions decisions...

Football Day
But first some rants about wrestling.
WRESTLING
So WWE released Jeff Hardy (just in case you didn't know). It was supposedly to let him heal his injuries including two herniated discs in his spine and some restless legs disorder. I'm not so sure about this decision. They could have just given him some time off. I mean...
Remember him? Some time back WWE released Kurt so that he could heal his own injuries. Only a few weeks later he signed on for TNA wrestling.
So...releasing Jeff, good decision or bad decision?
FOOTBALL
Liverpool 6-1 Hull City
ouch. Torres scored first. Then Geovanni equalised barely 2 minutes later (dammit Carra and Skrtel what's going on back there?). Then Torres goes rampant and earns his hat-trick before getting subbed off. Gerrard then scores a freak goal, and I mean FREAK goal. He curls the ball from the outside of the left side of the penalty box into the far post (it was pretty obvious he was just crossing the ball in hoping for someone to get it). Babel came on for Torres... and scored 2 goals? Babel's on a roll here. But his second goal, he scored off of his... calf? Riera runs into the penalty box, where the ball was landing, kicks the ball as hard as he possibly can and the ball kind of deflects of Babel, who is jogging past. The ball curls up & over poor Craig Myhill.
The rest of the Big 4 win, except for...
Chelsea 1-3 WIGAN!?
What the? Chelsea lose their 1st match... to WIGAN!? The turning point is when Cech gets sent off for taking down Rodallega in the penalty box. But still... Wigan? By two goals? I mean at least Man United kept some of their dignity when they lost to Burnley by only one goal, they could at least say it was lucky. Chelsea lost DECISIVELY to Wigan.
Staying on the topic of football
BONUS
Some random picture I put in my photobucket. Now tell me, how could this possibly end well for Gerrard? If he extends his right knee chances are he'll get it caught in the pitch. His left leg looks like it's gonna land badly and even if he does get the kick off the ball (ball can be seen in full picture, click on link) looks like its rolling away in the end.

The Streak Ends Here
No not my "Streak", the streak of posts without media
BONUS
So uh... who's the scariest?
Madonna?
Beth Ditto?
I personally think that the scariest person is the crazy black guy from Madonna's vid (Check 0:28... you'll know what I mean).
Seriously though, obese women shouldn't try to act sexy and uh... aging women shouldn't dance like 16 year-old strippers. Oh well, at least Madonna looks the part...
The music is still pretty good though. Celebration has a pretty sick beat and is great for clubs while Heavy Cross has uh... Beth Ditto. She's someone you listen to to enjoy, not... you know... see.
THE STREAK
Had a cool down yesterday. It started up again today. But guess what? It didn't restart on MTV Made! It restarted on Keroro Gunsou a.k.a. Sgt. Keroro. An episode featuring Fuyuki and Momoka. Chances are an episode featuring Natsumi, Giroro and Saburou is coming up. If you don't understand what I mean then I recommend you to watch the show or read the manga. Comedy gold for all ages... or you could be a cheapo and read wikipedia. The choice is yours.
"The Streak" appeared in other areas too. Linked to Akif a.k.a. Espionage in a way. He sort off opened my eyes to other songs by The Killers. I enjoyed one song in particular, Mr. Brightside. Old but hey, I got hooked. So... if you don't know the meaning to this song, check here

Poker Cards and KFC Revisited... with Laptops
Another day out with Enoch at KFC Admiralty... this time with our laptops
1st Game: Super Casino Special
Yeah Enoch played Let It Bet on the game. It's a modified version of poker and he kinda owned. Straights and flushes here and there. The multipliers vary though. Here's an example of what happens. Enoch bets 3 chips worth $1000. He wins via Flush. Dealer pays him back 30 times what he bet PER chip, so uh... you do the math
2nd Game: GTA
Randomly running around punching people? yup fun. But eventually moved on to...
3rd Game: Counter-Strike 1.6
We have Source but played 1.6. Why? Because Source has auto-team balance and doesn't allow us to do sh!t like...
2 vs 16! Me and Enoch vs 16 Knives-only Expert bots. It's pretty lame when you play in De_Dust or any other regular maps because of our range advantage. So we nullified that by playing in cramp ass fy_poolday. Definitely had fun here... even though our asses were getting handed to us (I mean... headshot knife wth?).
Wait, why did we go KFC in the first place? Irritate poor Mohan again? Nah. We were celebrating the reception of our 1st semester GPA results! uh... then again no, we were just there to irritate Mohan.
My magical GPA: 3.78
meh... everyone can do this nowadays anyway, nothing compared to Enoch's godly 3.92.
(what time is it?) EPIC FAIL TIME!!!
Personal Development Grade: C+
damn. So uh... this blog was meant for this subject right? go check the earliest posts. FAIL
So uh.. pretty bummed by the C+... and the B+ for MS... oh well, at least I secured my place on the director's list, hell yeah!
TV
One day... MTV Made... no effing love stories... awright! Chances are it won't last though, we'll see tomorrow
Final Comment
What is up with girls flipping the bird? It's called flipping the BIRD for a reason. Maybe for girls it should be called flipping the bean... if you know what I mean
