You Are 64% Gentleman

You are definitely a gentleman. You're very considerate and you have excellent manners.
Occasionally, you slip and do something foolish... but usually no one notices!

人老不仲用

老了老了~体魄不复当年十几岁时那么精力充沛了~

星期三那天跟两个朋友谈天,看足球通宵,直至凌晨5am++,睡到今早七点半还是觉得累,
你说是不是真的老了?
以前读书时挨通宵做功课或聊天,连熬几个晚上都没有现在的残,唉... ...

其中一个还sms跟我说熬了一天通宵就好像快要生病了,以后不能再那样子了喔~,
没回你的sms是因为当时还处在游魂状态中,手指就是按不到短讯~哈哈!

谁叫Champions League是要到夜晚才能够开始的咧?

下次再熬通宵的话,我一定会先炖好补品给你们hor...
但是要收钱的哦... 哈哈哈

是时候了

是时候了,应该停一停了。


Street after the rain at night...

当发现家好象变成旅店。

当发现忘记吃饭也不会饿。

当发现明天要工作也会睡不着,
若不需要工作却睡了十几个小时,还是依然累。

当发现朋友知道你一个礼拜密密麻麻的时间表,
露出一个不可思议的表情。

当发现很久没有想过是时候停一停。

那真的是时候停一停了。

“当你一手包办整个血淋淋爱情死亡的葬礼,没有东西会放不下了。
把快乐与悲伤的埋进去,改日神态自若走过那坟墓,好象没有东西埋在那里一样,
你只是笑笑,因为不用超度,然而每个人都安宁了。”

Benitez tries to get his point across

Rafael Benitez was left to bite his lip in frustration at the lost minute which cost Liverpool any hope of a Champions League miracle in Athens tonight.

Trailing to AC Milan but buoyed by Dirk Kuyt's last-minute header, Benitez's men entered what should have been three minutes of stoppage time desperately searching for a leveller.

Instead, the Liverpool coach could only seethe in frustration as German referee Herbert Fandel blew up after just two minutes and 44 seconds, which included an AC Milan substitution that should have seen an extra 30 seconds played.

Clearly unhappy, Benitez made his feelings known to Fandel and the new UEFA president Michel Platini as he went up to collect his loser's medal.

'It is not an excuse but I am disappointed,' said Benitez. 'After Dirk scored, we were confident we could get another but I was surprised by the lack of time we were given.

'It could have made a difference but in the end, I suppose you need to score in the 90 minutes.'

Benitez felt his side were in control until Filippo Inzaghi fortuitously deflected Andrea Pirlo's free-kick past Pepe Reina in the final minute of the opening period.

The goal transformed the contest as, from being in a relatively comfortable position, Liverpool were forced to chase the game in a manner that offered Kaka and Pirlo a chance to open them up.

A second duly arrived eight minutes from time when Kaka brilliantly set up Inzaghi for his second, ensuring Kuyt's point-blank header proved nothing more than a consolation.

'We were going forward and creating chances and overall I felt we were controlling the game,' said Benitez.

'Then Milan scored a bad goal from a deflection, which meant we had to go forward more and leave bigger spaces.

'Even in the second-half I felt we were really close but we were still losing, so I brought on Peter Crouch for Javier Mascherano.

'It allowed us to take more risks in attack but then we lost control of the midfield.

'Unfortunately, when you do that against a side like Milan, they can kill you with one opportunity. It only takes one pass from Kaka and that is what happened.'

Not for the first time this season, Benitez was left to lament his side's failings in front of goal.

Despite having more than twice as many shots, Liverpool could not find the target when it mattered.

In his role just behind lone striker Kuyt, Steven Gerrard wasted three chances, John Arne Riise skied a couple and the introduction of Peter Crouch made no significant difference in the final 15 minutes.

The problem cannot have escaped Benitez's attention, although there was little he could have done about it this evening.

'You cannot change things in one or two weeks,' he said. 'You have to work hard at it for a long time. The players are doing their best and I cannot complain about that.'

However, while Benitez can take immense pride in leading Liverpool to a second Champions League Final in three seasons, when he sits down with new owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks tomorrow to discuss a strategy for the future, he knows major surgery is required if the 21-point gap to Premiership champions Manchester United is to be closed.

'We can improve and we are trying to improve, but we need to go forward more than one step at a time,' he said.

'I hope we get the backing to do that.

'The players have worked extremely hard tonight but it not easy to achieve more.

'If we want to be close to Manchester United and Chelsea and to have another chance in the Champions League, we need to go two steps at a time.'

Just less than 15 hours until a destiny is met.

A win, and Liverpool join their opponents as the second most successful club in the history of the European Cup.

Had anyone told me this would be possible as Season 03/04 limped to an end, I'd have laughed in disbelief. Who were Liverpool going to employ as manager that summer, David Copperfield? The guy who led us to believe that we actually turned the corner, was actually leading us into a steeple chase.

A sixth European crown would be a remarkable achievement. And despite what Alex Ferguson says, Liverpool have a good chance of success. (ED: i tink he can keep that bottle of wine for his retirement party)

We need to be fully aware that what Milan did to Ferguson's United was not a million miles away from what Portsmouth did to a ragged United a couple of weeks earlier. Milan's 3-0 walkover should not be construed as some kind of children's boogey man – for us, at least. (For United fans, it was just that...)

While a fresh Milan were more than capable of beating any team United could put out, given it was at the San Siro and that they began so brightly against an extremely tired opposition, United's starting eleven also lacked the two centre-backs who have given them a good defence platform all season. Rio Ferdinand was injured, and only the ghost of Nemanja Vidic played. Gary Neville, never a fave around these parts, will at least get the begrudging acknowledgement of being solid and reliable, and Patrice Evra, who has had a good season on the whole, was also absent.

Yes, Milan also ran riot against Liverpool in Istanbul, before half-time intervened. But it has to be noted that the Reds' defence is far better drilled as a unit than 2005, and also has a more reliable shielding presence in midfield.

Djimi Traoré had an absolute nightmare in the first half two years ago, although later redeemed himself somewhat with a great goal-line clearance.

But he was a player who, on the night, like a lot of other Reds, clearly suffered from first-half stage fright. It was the biggest game in the lives of that starting XI, whereas Milan had been there, done that. Now Liverpool have been there and done that, too.

This year's Milan are a great side going forward, but for me they do not compare with Barcelona in terms of attacking talent.

The Italians look a better balanced side, with more solidity as a unit, but they don't have a front four to compare with the frightening quartet of Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Messi and Deco, whose touch and movement is totally something else outta this universe. Also, Milan's current strikers are nowhere near as intimidating as Crespo and Shevchenko were in 2005, but of course, in Kaká they have a real gem who has improved even more since then.(or so Pele says)

I fully respect Milan, and make them favourites based on their experience. But I don't see any reason to fear them. If Liverpool can win in a partisan Nou Camp after being a goal down to a Barcelona team who were, at that moment in the game, purring like the 1970 Brazilians, then the Reds can win in a neutral setting, with a passionate support willing them on, against a team they psychologically scarred two years ago.

Make no mistake: Liverpool fully deserve their place in the final. At no point in the entire campaign have the Reds been in danger of elimination, ever since dominating Group C.

A narrow defeat at Stamford Bridge(Hey! Joe Cole is our boogey man and he's playing that nite...) was the only significant deficit all season (bar a few minutes in the Nou Camp, and just four minutes early in the qualifier against Maccabi Haifa), and it took just 22 minutes of the semi-final second leg to even it up against Mourinho's men. Even the penalty shoot-out was trouble-free, with the Reds in control from the first kick.

What has pleased me the most about our defending in Europe has been the lack of panic – of feeling a goal could be conceded at any moment – bar those first 20-30 minutes in Barcelona, and a couple of times when Pepe Reina needed to save at Stamford Bridge. The entire season has been relatively stress-free, particularly at crucial points in the games.

Neither Chelsea nor Barcelona worried the Reds' defence at Anfield; the weird thing was how little Barcelona created on the whole, and especially in the last 10 minutes, when a second goal would have taken them through. And even weirder was how Chelsea, needing just one away goal to force the Reds into scoring three, failed to make Liverpool's defence even remotely twitchy.(remember how twitchy United was)

As a fan, I still panic to a degree. Perhaps I'll never lose those twitching sensations, from all those years of Phil Babb tackling goalposts with his coccyx and an overweight Neil Ruddock floundering like a beached whale; not to mention David James, before he became the mature goalkeeper of today, rashly flying out of his goal only to flap at the crosses.

While I don't particularly care who wins the final for the Reds so long as someone does, the romantic in me can't help but hope it's someone for whom there's an extra-special story, and, to lessen the sense of déjà vu, someone different to two years ago regarding the players who remain at the club.

One of the things that gave me most joy in Istanbul was Vladimir Smicer's unexpected contribution as a sub: stunning goal, and coolly taken penalty. (I also loved the thought of him smoking a celebratory cigar in Taksim Square at 3am.) The Czech, while a popular figure, never found his best form at Liverpool, but six years of injury-induced inconsistency were forgotten that night, and now we all remember him particularly fondly.

I can't help but want to see Robbie Fowler play some kind of telling role, even if only as a late sub; just as he was so close to doing against Chelsea, as the designated fifth penalty taker. (Ironic that he was a minute from taking a penalty in his Anfield farewell game, too.)

Having been in Istanbul as a fan, his passion for the club is special. And he remains a 'big game' player: someone who never freezes in the limelight. He scored crucial goals in two of the three finals of 2001, despite only starting one of those games, as well as a penalty in the League Cup final shoot-out. He also scored in the semi-finals.

Then there's Peter Crouch, a man who has spent far too much of his career being mocked, but for whom a Champions League winners' medal would be the latest positive achievement in a hard-earned battle to be taken seriously.

Or Harry Kewell. He was sensational in the World Cup game against Croatia last summer, almost single-handedly dragging Australia through to the knockout stage, but has had wretched luck with injuries since joining Liverpool. No player wants to limp out of a cup final, but he's done so in three for the Reds, having worked hard at his fitness in the build-ups to those games.

He's got fit again now, and, given the circumstances, looked incredibly sharp against Charlton. It might be too soon to start the final, but he remains a special player who can excel in every attacking aspect of the game: passing, going past people, crossing, scoring, creating, and is also very strong in the air. A fit and confident Harry Kewell is such a great asset for the club, and someone Milan would justifiably fear.

One of the interesting things to monitor will be Milan's psychological fall-out from 2005. Just as United remain a lucky semi-final opponent for Milan, dating back to the 1950s, then Liverpool have clearly made themselves unlucky final opposition for the Milanese.

I don't believe too much in records stating "team X hasn't beaten team Y in 30 years" because ultimately it's different personnel involved.

But the mental blocks of recent history can be true enough. These blocks are never enough to predetermine a result, but they can have a bearing on how the teams perform. Chelsea now know that, in a cup semi-final, their chances of eliminating Liverpool are unusually slim, and it seemed that they lacked some belief once Daniel Agger scored in the latest clash.

It's like Manchester United and late goals. Teams believe they actually specialise in them, and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy as the clock winds down. Both this season and last Liverpool have lost to stoppage-time goals against United. In a similar way, firmly etched into Milanese minds is that Liverpool specialise in comebacks. Especially if they watched last season's FA Cup final.

Unlike Liverpool, Milan are no strangers to losing European Cup finals. Another defeat would make it five; at present, the sombre game at Heysel is Liverpool's only taste of defeat. And of all the teams who've won the trophy more than twice, Liverpool have by far the best success ratio: five out of six finals won to date. Ajax, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, like Milan, all have a high number of defeats as well as successes.

So in that sense the Reds are still pretty unique. Indeed, Liverpool aren't a team who tend to lose many finals, full-stop. The defeat in the League Cup against Chelsea in 2005 is the only reversal in the last seven 'proper' cup finals.

It's like the Reds' penalty record: ten wins in eleven shoot-outs. Any England or Germany fan will know how previous encounters can linger in the mind, for good and bad, and influence current proceedings.

History won't automatically help Liverpool, of course. But we can still hope and believe that it will act as the kind of sixth sense we crave the most.

My Girl & I



*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Su-eun (in the car on the way to the pier before she passes away):"My birthday...It's a week before yours. Since I was born first, I waited alone in a world without you. In the future, I'll wait for you a long, long time. Take your time. Stall all you like."

Su-ho:"As long as I've been living, there's never been a day without you. And there never will be."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



Su ho :"I will cry for you, laugh for you and live for you. *Short pause* (looks deeply into Su-eun's eyes with bated breathe) You're the centre of my universe."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



The above are just some quotes from the Korean drama, "My Girl & I" which happens to be the 2005 Korean remake to the Japanese movie "Crying Out Love, In the Center of the World."

Su-ho (Tae-Hyun Cha), a simple teenager, and Su-eun (Hye-Gyo Song), a pretty and popular girl, start dating. Their love is for each other seems eternal. By leaving messages to each other on the phone, and through their many times together, their love grows stronger. Until a tragic event occurs.

I thought the movie was very good. The movie is able to portray true love and happiness very well. Although it seemed to skip around a little bit, I believe you should check this movie out. Alternatively you can check out Wiki's entry on this movie which i felt is good enuff. I have the original book as well. Crying out love in the centre of the world.



i tell you reading that book is such an emotional wrenching moment.. at least for me... hahahahaha... i cried buckets watching this show...
