yesterday was the European GP in Nurburgring... the usual "watch-it-at-the-pub" for me, unusually though this time i was alone... then some wakeboarding in the lake... i'm getting better at it, yippeee...

the recruit... al pacino is his usual, while colin farrell shows why he is everywhere at the moment... some absurd stupidities in the movie though... no disk drives or printers, but usb ports are allowed... everything uses win32... he can write a program to hack a password, without logging on to the computer... but then, it is a typical sunday movie...

missed out on robbie williams tickets cause i didn't know about it... luckily he's adding a second date, so tomorrow going to get tickets... robbie the entertainer...

sunday morning... have to wake up a bit early to do my laundry...

friday night was a party... barbeque at webster then party at espe's... drink drink drink...

saturday was the usual... bob's bday... cassie's bday... a bit of clemence... a bit of antidote... a bit of dj-ing...

i just finished goblet of fire and sometimes i wish i have that "pensieve" thing... it's a thing that keeps all your thoughts and replay it for you when you need/want to... that thing will make life much more easier... no more "what happened that night?" or "i didn't say that, now did i?"... and also you can replay all the good memories over and over and over again...

well, in some sense having a blog is sort of like a pensieve, but it's only text...

Marc-Vivien Foe and Charlie's Angels

Marc-Vivien Foe collapses and dies during a match from a heart attack. He was only 28 yrs old. When I heard the news, I was shocked. He's a pretty big name, one of Cameroon's finest. RIP.

just came back from charlie's angels 2: full throttle... it's worse than the 1st one... this one is just a 90 minute MTV video clip... no wonder, considering the fact that director McG used to make mtv video clips... it's full of mtv music and also music references... i'll try to list them:
* dylan's t-shirts are usually 80s hair metal bands (ac/dc, judas priest) and used to listen to heavy metal (bon jovi)
* dylan had david bowie's make up from aladdin sane's cover when she was wrestling
* among the things that dylan left in the box was a best of beatles LP (the red one)
* pink making an appearance as motocross bitch, in real life, pink's boyfriend is corey hart - motocross champion
* eve made a cameo appearance
* max was hidden in south central, along with the dre & snoop soundtrack
and there was a bunch of other pop-cultural references... i'll remember them if i want to... thing is, the movie sucked...

again a non-productive day today... sometimes i wish i have tons of work, just to make work more exciting... but then again if i do get tons of work, it'll probably irritates me as much as when i don't have work at all... can't have it all, can i?

yesterday was hot... 38 degrees on the temperature in my car... and then i played football during lunchtime... even at night it was hot... had some sushi for dinner... now that's nice... i wish the weather would cool a bit... 25 is much better than 35... as long as there is sun it'll be alright...

i'm sleepy... maybe because i got my back massaged yesterday, so i was all relaxed and slept very well (either that or it was the alcohol)... but waking up in the morning was a drag...

it's the middle of the week... the day i look forward to because i'll be playing football... my favorite sport...

a good sign: the alarm of my car is working again... without taking it to the garage... hopefully it'll stay like this...

back to work... and browsing the internet...

real madrid


real madrid sacked coach vincent del bosque yesterday after he managed to bring home the championship just ahead of real sociedad... real madrid also told fernando hierro to go somewhere else and didn't give him a contract...

the hierro bit i can understand... he's old and slow... unfortunately for real, they don't have much defenders left... helguera is not even a real defender... is beckham going to play in defence? oh well, i'm sure they'll have a solution for it...

the del bosque bit is a bit difficult to understand... in 4 years he won 2 league titles, 2 champions league, and a bunch of other cups... and they still sack him... he's been telling the board that real needs a defender, agreed by many, but the board insists on buying the likes of ronaldo and beckham... whoever's going to take over, it won't be easy... imagine the dressing room full of egos, add the board who wants to have a say, and then the merciless media... they might as well play without a coach, cause he won't be doing anything much anyways... oh well, maybe we see a new face that suddenly drowns real madrid and my beloved ajax can win the champions league next year... yiippeee...

pretty useful having a blog...

still at work



amazingly i haven't done anything productive today at the office... no, wait a minute, why should that be amazing? i'm a lazy git and there's not much work, so yes, i often have days like these when i just don't have to do anything... oh well, back to pretending to work...

does this work?



i'm trying out the title

just got home after a vodka red bull and a bottle of rose... the weather is nice out there... guns n roses are cool, especially circa appetite for destruction... inside it's hot as hell... i need another shower... and more alcohol... and some sleep...

how the hell do you edit the links on my blogspot page???

so what will my first official rant be about?

it's amazingly hot here... it's been hot for the past month and today it reached 39 degrees celcius... trust me, it's too hot... i wish it was 10 degrees colder... then it'll be nice...

just saw 2 fast 2 furious yesterday... that movie, a funny comedy... i still can't believe that john singleton directed that movie... he did really well with boyz n the hood and now he's doing crap like this... he must hit an all-time low... as for paul walker, i can act better than him... i can even drive better than him...

just trying to set up a new blog for myself... maybe here i can put my random rants for good...
