WORLD CUP 2010

I can't believe I haven't blogged about the world cup since all I do on FB is talk about the world cup.

June 13 : Germany vs Australia at 4.30am + No work tomorrow = Perfect combo
June 21: Tujuh kosong (Malay for seven zero). What a shocker (Referring to the beating North Korea took from Portugal)
June 28: Bye bye England. (Referring to the trashing of England by Germany 1-4)
June 28: Bring it on Argentina.
June 29:
World cup updates, that's all I do. Geez, when did I become a soccer fan?
June 30: Can't resist. PORTUGAL HAHAHAHAHHA. (referring to them losing out to Spain 0-1)

And I never talk about soccer. Never.
Every 4 years I wait for the World Cup, and then I rant about soccer as though it is the most important thing to me. =p

I love picking a team to support and then anticipating their victory (although none of the teams I've supported so far have gone on to win yet! *Brazilalwayswins*)

The Germans looked so close to being able to put on some sort of fight against Brazil with the Oliver Kahn/Michael Ballack combination in 2002 Japan/Korea. Ballack, of course, had to get suspended just before the final match.

France and the infamous Zidane headbutt in 2006 Germany lost out to Italy. *edit*

As for South Africa 2010, I'm on team Germany, again. Although Ballack is out due to injury, Lahm has done a commendable job so far. And Manuel Neuer is filling in some big Golden boots too.
The 'old' team couldn't beat Brazil, maybe the young team can.

With some experienced ''veterans' like Klose, Podolski, Schweinsteiger, Friedrich;














Miroslav Klose

















Lukas Podolski

















Bastian Schweinsteiger

As well as young players, Ozil, Muller.

This team might just be the right combination to take on Brazil (assuming they beat Netherland and Ghana/Uruguay).

Now the Germans just need to steamroll through the strong Argentinians like they did in the 2006 world cup.

IT MAY BE A LITTLE CRUDE BUT

" Look, in my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person is still going to think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with." Juno (2007)

Isn't that what all girls want?

Recent conversations with other girls have proved that school of thought wrong.

Apparently, girls want excitement, not the acknowledgment of the simple fact that the other party simply adores you.

I don't get it. Women are just weird.

GOD SUSTAINS

Last night, I felt completely alone and yet at no moment at all did I feel that I was all alone.

God truly sustains.

WRONG SENTENCES

Today I woke up and I was sad. For no reason. Is that wrong?

Today I woke up and I was sad but I pretended to be happy. Is that wrong?

Today I woke up and I was sad but I felt like I couldn't tell anyone because I was sad for no reason, therefore I had to pretend I was happy.

I think I'll be happy tomorrow.

When a church (whether knowingly or unknowingly) leads you to worship the preacher, worship team, lights, music, songs, being in the limelight;

I beseech ( yes in the words of the Apostle Paul) you.

Ask yourself.

Do I worship Christ, or do I worship the church?

This is not exclusive to any one church.
It is not the fault of any one church.

If anything; it is the fault of humans' desire in wanting to replace God with man made ideas.
And humans' desire in wanting to be glorified like God.

Stupidly, we put God's creation in God's place.
Very arrogantly, we try to claim God's glory as our own.

And when we've truthfully answered the question.

I hope some of us are brave enough to make the decision to leave.
Taking at break from recruitment at the McDonalds opposite the clinic.
Free WIFI =)

Checking the results from the World Cup matches for the last 2 nights.
And the train times to Sydney tomorrow PM.
Hopefully the coming weeks will be slow and relaxing.

I keep feeling like I've forgotten something.
