Bye² WC

Assalamualaykum.

[Hannover..It's OVER..]

Heard the fatal verdict yesterday morning.
Switzerland proudly defeated Daehanminguk 2-nil.
There goes Korea's hope to qualify for the knock-out stage.
If only they won over France during the second match, then the scenario would be different.
Sigh~
Won't be seeing Ahn in 2010 World Cup I think.
By then he would be 34.
Too old to run around the field.

Well, even though my Daehanminguk team lost their battle, I still am enjoying the matches and looking forward to know which country will be going back with the Cup.
Brazil has won all their matches and they are very likely to be in the finals.
Spain and Portugal performed well too and won all three games.
And I think Germany did well in all their matches.
Maybe being the host helps them boost their fighting spirit.
If that's the case, Argentina will face difficulties in the quarter final.
But nothing is to be sured in football.
Not until the final whistle is blown.

Till then, have a good football watching.
May the best team win.

Wassalam.

Subhanallah

Assalamualaykum.
What a sad,sad way to start my day.
Today, I had to start off my new day with a shocking discovery.
(At least to me it IS shocking.)
I was browsing through friendster and found this picture which I'm going to share with you guys.



I have edited the above picture.
Enough said it is somebody I know.
Not a friend, but I know her from my school days.
She is undoubtful a Malay and MUSLIM.

What really annoyed me is that she had the NERVE to actually post a picture like that publicly.
Holding a bottle of alcohol and looked proud of being able to do that.
Even if she didn't take the alcohol, *(which I find to be quite doubtful), what's she trying to prove by doing such act?
Allah forbids us to consume alcohol.
Period.

Sorry readers, but I don't find this as a sensitive issue.
Not even a little bit.
Because when it comes to Islam law, things are absolute, non-negotiable.
I know I'm not the best person to talk about this, because I too am not a perfect Muslimah.
But who is? Rather than our Rasulullah (pbuh).
Even more when it is the issue of consuming alcohol we are talking about.
Man, it doesn't take a genius to tell you that alcohol is prohibited in Islam.
If you ask my 7-year old students, they will definitely tell you that "ARAK TU HARAM!!!"
So why is a person with a brain (bigger and fuller than mine and my lil' students), can't even differ which is correct or wrong.

I don't know what else to say.
Readers please excuse my tone in today's entry.
This is so distressful pour moi.
Hopefully Daehanminguk team will bring joy to me tonight with a winning game against France.
InsyaAllah.
In a nutshell, DON'T DRINK (alcohol).

Wassalam.


*in another picture she regarded herself and a friend as drunkens.

YAHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Assalamualaykum.

A brilliant strike from Daehanminguk's hottest striker Ahn Junghwan ensures Korea's place on top of the Group G.
France's draw against Switzerland means a double celebration pour moi.
I enjoyed the game last night, even though the first half was a torture when Togo played their best and lead with 1 goal.
When Junghwan entered the second half, Daehanminguk's team spirit was lifted.
They played better, and attacked more than they did in the first half.
Geez, I was too overwhelmed by their glory, I can't stop smiling today.

The truth is I REALLY enjoyed the game.
I really do.
People tend to say that girls only go by the looks.
They support England just because Beck's on the team.
Or Brazil because the world renowned Ronaldinho or Ronaldo.
And also because Brazil have won the WC 4 times already.
Well, that opinion is half true.


As for me, looks is just a BIG BONUS to the players who play well.
Ahn Junghwan is one of the fortunate ones.
That's why he was crowned a the Man of The Match in last night's game against Togo.
I quote:

TSG member James Selby said: "The reason why I chose Ahn as the Budweiser Man of the Match is that he made an instant impact after he came on as a substitute.

"He was aggressive in his attacking and he increased the tempo of the match. Also, his movement was good, his passing was quick and he scored a great goal.

"But I also want to mention Park (Ji-Sung). He had a good game too, but Ahn made more of an impact, so he is the Man of the Match."

But it is no doubt that Daehanminguk's victory came from their cooperation and team work.
Hence credit also goes to Park Jisung, Cho Jaejin, Lee Chunsoo, Kim Nam-il and the rest of the team.
Dick Advocaat has done a good job.

My Junghwan? Ah, he is so adorable.

DAEHANMINGUK!!!

Assalamualaykum.
Coming back to work after 2 weeks of school break feels terrible.
I only arrived to school at 7am this morning and already I am homesick.
I miss my mum,abah,sisters,nephews and niece.
=(
I spent the whole 2 weeks at home.
My activities were babysitting,k-drama(over and over again),forced my mum to cook my favorite dishes,shopping,window shopping etc,etc.
'Rumahku Syurgaku'??
That is so true!!

So, World Cup anyone?
Now that my body is 3 degrees above room temperature, PILLE said I'm officially having a FOOTBALL FEVER.
I sure am.Hehe.
Maybe I'm not really into football like I used to back in college, but I still enjoy watching the games.
This year I will be supporting Asian team South Korea.
The 2002 FIFA WC I supported Portugal but not anymore, baby!!
Though with Ronaldo C. and Figo on the team, my heart is still for Daehanminguk..
Hurra!!

DAEHANMINGUK!!!!

Wassalam.
