Call me insane or crazy whatsoever, i went to watch the match between Manchester United and Malaysia for the second time yesterday. o.O
It was an insane day, going out the whole day since morning heading to work and going to the stadium straight after work . However i'm a happy man. To watch Manchester United playing twice in 3 days.
I still haven have the time to filter the lousy pictures taken to blog about both matches. Wondering should i blog about it or not. Anyways, here's another video after the previous comparison of English fans and Malaysian fans. Enjoy!
Though exhausted, i have no regrets watching it again although it was a less interesting match compared to the one 2 days ago.
The English soccer fans have been well known for being extremely supportive of their local soccer clubs with chants, songs, cheers of their own whenever they are watching their team playing in a stadium.
As a Malaysian who's a Manchester United fan, i was lucky enough to win a trip to go all the way to the Theatre of Dreams to watch the match where ManUtd face Liverpool early this year.
and just yesterday, i went to Bukit Jalil National Stadium to watch the match between Manchester United against Malaysia XI, a relatively young team where 90% of the soccer fans there in the stadium didn't put much hope in them football entertainment wise.
However, the Malaysian side put a good play and managed to get the respect of their own country people who're watching the match where everyone was actually expecting all the entertainment coming from the ManUtd players. But to see a performance that was that awesome coming from our own country players, It was ecstatic.
Anyways, the main point of this post is the level of support of the soccer fans. In England, the supporters would support their team even though they were relegated, the players made a serious mistake, own goals happen, they screwed up and whatsoever.
See the difference between Malaysian Soccer fans and English Soccer fans in the video that i've recorded below.
Notice the difference? The people in England went crazy and they were shouting at the top of their voice cheering and chanting when their team scored. Malaysian shouted YES, but you can see that its different. Very different.
Fellow Malaysians have something to learn in that where i can really see that this relatively young Malaysian side have what it takes to play and shine at International level, we need to support our own country's soccer scene.
Going all the way to the stadium to support our team when they are facing other countries in the international scene. Yes the players need to be hardworking and train hard and have the passion and determination, but we have to be there for them as well to support them, with that, they'll have higher morale where they can go even further.
If the players can maintain how they played like yesterday and us Malaysians could support them all the way, why am i not surprise that they can make it to World Cup next time?
We Asians are much more smaller in size and we are no match for those Europeans who are much bigger in size and so its impossible to get a place in the international scene. What?!
See what South Korea accomplished a few years ago beating teams like Spain and Italy in the World Cup competition and got 3rd place!!
Hours ago there were live feeds from Facebook users where i was watching Michael Jackson's memorial service broadcasted live on CNN all the way from Staples Center, Los Angeles.
I must admit that i'm not a big fan of MJ but i admire his passion and contribution and seriously, those who was watching the live broadcast just now, if you were not moved by the words by Paris, MJ's daughter, you really need to see the doctor.
Anyways, that's not the main point of this post. The main point of this post is what i'm gonna show you. I saw this like just 1 hour ago.
A bunch of people, with parang knife and sticks smashing the tables and chairs at a Mamak stall near my house, 2 Proton cars, a Wira and a Saga and a few bikes. It was really loud and it lasted for like 5 minutes i think.
Have no idea what was the reason behind the vandalism act, perhaps there isn't enough milk in the Teh Ais or maybe they uses Mee to cook Maggi Goreng. Nah i think the people weren't happy that they charged RM0.10 more on their Teh O Ais compared to other mamak stalls.
Hope that nobody got hurt though and gosh the place i'm staying in just got a little bit more dangerous.
Call me an outdated person or perhaps an idiot, i was never a hardcore fan of Youtube like some of my friends who would logon to Youtube and watch some kickass clips sharing it all around on MSN, Blogs, Twitter and such.
The first time i knew about this very dude was when a friend of mine sharing a YouTube video link on twitter with me being curious clicking on it.
View the video if you're a Michael Jackson fan. View it TWICE if you're not!
I went on and watched a few more videos and found out that this dude had a primary account here and the MJ video above was on his secondary account.
This dude here is Kevin and his YouTube channel is 5th on the list of the Current YouTube All Time Most Subscribed Channels. Thats Crazy Ok!
He's really Wow.
I mean like how many college freshman get invited by a professor to give a lecture in class and somehow out of the blue, there's this mini dance party happening with the professor dancing as well!
Its really O.O and i LOL-ed at that!!
Of course, he wasn't the only one being famous on YouTube. And in every different community, the few famous people will make friends with each other.
Just like Su Ann & Kenny in the Malaysia Blogosphere. But i didn't know that it could happen in YouTube!!
I mean like, i post my videos, you post your videos and people love our videos and we got lots of subcribers and we became friends through YouTube somehow, Indirectly. I don't see how it could become like that. In real life, it happens...
I'm pretty sure that Kelvin a.k.a KevJumba made a few friends through YouTube and one of them is MichellePhan.
Oh maybe MichellePhan is not famous enough(for some people) and so here's another YouTube Famous personality, Christine a.k.a HappySlip where her channel is 16th on the Current YouTube All Time Most Subscribed Channels. She TAGGED Kevin here and here's Kevin's reply to the tag. *michellephan's channel is 57th on the Current YouTube All Time Most Subscribed Channels.
and uh oh, a group which consists some of the big names(including the 3 mentioned above) on YouTube actually gathered together for a live performance in New York early last month.
Of course, these examples of friend making process above don't only applies to famous people in their respective online communities, it applies to every single person in the community itself. *just that i can get more specific examples to talk about because they are famous.
I actually find all these connections, friendships, strings that are attached and pulled between several strangers from different backgrounds, communities, and even countries where they get together knowing each other, It's all amazing.
50 years back, who could've imagine that you could make friends in such a way, finding your buddy or perhaps your soul partner.
Through mediums such as Blogs, Youtube, Facebook, Friendster and maybe Twitter/Plurk with just you being behind a screen connecting to something call the Internet/Cyberspace with another thing with the name Broadband Connection.
A few days ago, i was having some regular conversations with some of my friends on MSN and all of a sudden, Nigel sent over a video. I received it asking what's it about and he just asked me to watch it. It turned out to be some short clip on a wedding.
Life's Good? Definitely NO for those slaves who'll be heading to their respective working position at this very start of the week.
Thanks to Nuffnang and LG, Life was good for the bloggers who attended the very launch party of LG Blog early this month at the 8th of May 2009. Especially for those who won something back home that night!
Life's Good when you have a bunch of people in costumes as either devil or angel attending a party. Quite an awesome scene to be in.
Especially when you have these angels guiding you around in and out giving you balloons with the nicest smile on earth when you register yourself at the counter. xD
Shall not crap more, please view the video that i've edited below. Esp to the guys, view the video till the very end okay? Hehehe.
LG Blog Launch Party @ Metropol Bar, Kuala Lumpur
So, did you enjoy watching the video? i hope you did. =)
and yea the video was kinda like an extremely short summary of the party. Something similar to what Bryan did on the same event itself and if you've watch his video, you'll definitely see the same faces in my video as well. =)
and of course, a group picture is a MUST for such events xD.
Kudos to LG Malaysia for embracing Blogging by launching their official blog early this month. Its definitely the right thing to do!! Haha and yes, blogging is like a religion already lmao. =X
Just last Friday, i attended the launch of Mint Magazine @ Upstairs at the Loft, Asian Heritage Row. Thanks to Steph K. lolx
We reached there around 8pm+ which is consider early and met up with Ren over there. Queued up for a while and got our chops and drinks coupon. Well pretty normal for a launch event.
and to my surprise, someone tap my shoulder all of a sudden and it was...
Soon the event started with the host coming out giving a brief introduction with a short performance...
陈世安 Andrew, a Malaysian singer who got his fame through a few singing competitions came out later on and performed 2 songs.
Next, there was a few gaming sessions and here are a few pictures taken during the sessions.

Most of the games played were some normal ones like finishing up a bottle of beer in the fastest time, pinning up all the badges on your clothes, making a balloon burst, collecting a few different items in the fastest time and of course, there were prizes for the winners such as sunglasses, beer tower, nike shoes, whole box of carlsberg and the ultimate one was paying a visit to Carlsberg Factory for 10 person. Lolx. Sound familar?
Daniel 李杰汉 with his Malaysian Idol season 2 fame came out and performed 2 songs after the game sessions. Frankly speaking, i don't see anything special in both Andrew and Daniel voice but well, who am i to judge?? Maybe it's the sound man or the PA system. Lolx.
A lucky draw marks the very end of the event with MORE people but not 4 of us winning stuffs back home. Gah. Nothing to say on that. Lolx I've made a video that includes performances from both the singer mentioned above. Hope you enjoy the video bah.

It was a crazy Saturday last weekend. Managed to have 2 short meetings at 2 different locations meeting Anis and Liyeng. Apart from that, i went to Zouk Kuala Lumpur in the night to see for myself the very current World's No1 DJ.
ARMIN VAN BUUREN with his trance music.
It was a crazy night.
with lots of earthlings......
The whole crowd went ecstatic when he started spinning!
and many of them started taking pictures/videos of the World's No1 DJ. Hehe.
Alright, i'll leave the rest to the video i took that night with my humble little Canon Ixus 75. Nyehhhh.
5.05 Minutes of Armin Van Buuren @ Zouk Malaysia
Will write a more detail blog post when i get my hands on more pictures. =)
