    WCG 2009
    - The experience was damn good lah...
    - The whole setting was like a mini-ISEF with a heck load of gamers...

    Fifa 09
    - Lol, I must say WCG has degraded alot, that even I had the balls to take part in it without having played the game before... I guess its just that the prizes suck too much nowadays...
    - Either way, was quite glad my first game was against some old friend in Fifa Online 2, so LOL, as I was playing him I was asking him how to do the various moves lol... Eventually he won me 1-0 in my first ever Fifa 09 game haha!!!
    - Then my 2nd game was against some other guy, it finished 0-0, but not supposed to be, cuz he had a penalty, which I super luckily saved...
    - My group had only 3 people, so everyone qualified for the playoffs...
    - I faced the eventual runner-up in my first (and last) playoff game... He was a super polite and nice guy, and he SOUNDED and LOOKED like Tiappy! I lost the first game 2-0 and drew the second game 1-1 (WHEE... At least I scored one goal before I went out...)
    - Fifa 09 was simply a cry too far from Fifa Online 2 lol...

    Dota
    - DOTA WAS OH MY GAWD
    - Was particularly impressed when this team called Little actually team-cleared XtC, but XtC still won that game comfortably...
    - But came the FINAL GAME... OMG... XtC VS Axis...
    - FRIGGIN GAY GAME... (Ok, can't rmbr all the details, but it was something like that)
    - Axis had more kills, but XtC, with the super godlike farming of Toh's Bristleback, managed to Mega Creep Axis
    - Then Axis decided to do a throne rush while 4 of XtC's heroes were down from Mega Creeping them...
    - WTH, then Axis downed the two last towers and downed XtC's throne to 50% HP, before XtC's heroes came out and wiped them out...
    - Axis then bought out, and their two DPSes, Chaos Knight and Shadow Fiend went to rush the throne while their other 3 heroes defended... On the other hand, all of XtC's heroes was camping at various spots in their half to try to stop Axis from throning...
    - Then somehow, Axis wiped out the heroes stopping them, and it eventually it was just XtC's POTM against Axis' SF and CK. And WTF LOL...
    - Axis' SF used Manta and a stored illusion rune while CK ulti-ed, so it was like 7 SFs and 4 CKs just aiming the throne directly...
    - THEN... XtC's POTM used manta too and their BB revived... Eventually the CK died... So did the POTM... So it was left with SF (all the illus dead) and BB...
    - The SF, with green HP, then turned on BKB, and just whacked the throne ignoring the BB hitting it... Before we knew it, XtC's throne was left with 100HP...
    - Axis' SF hit it once, and the throne was left with 25HP... XtC's BB could not kill the SF...
    - Axis' SF raised its arm, ready to shoot out the last projectile to finish off the throne and the entire crowed was thrilled to witness a final whereby Axis kena-ed Mega Creeps and still turned the tables and won...
    - THEN SUDDENLY... BOOOOM... The screen switched... The Mega Creeps had killed off Axis' Tree of Eternity JUST AS their SF released the projectile...
    - The ENTIRE XtC team just JUMPED out of their seats as the entire hall erupted... Yeah, and I tot I saw one of them cry... And NutZ went nuts lol... You should have seen how high he jumped when the screen suddenly switched over just as SF was about to do the last hit on their throne... OMGoodnessGayness...

    Side Note:
    - Yeah, I saw like some big big adults, with their girlfriends, sobbing like little kids after they lost their games... OMG...

    Random Musings
    - Changed my braces to black for fun
    - Went for a haircut and I told the hairdresser "just cut whatever you like" lol...
    - Went to watch Woodlands VS SAFFC at Woodlands stadium in my yellow Nike shirt and black Addidas shorts... And promptly sat in the SAF corner, in a sea of light blue...
    - And wth, I didn't realise Woodlands jersey has changed to yellow top and black bottom, and not yellow, green, blue anymore...
    - Game was damn boring, but somehow SAF won 4-1...
    - Signed up for Fifa 09 WCG with my friend's credit card since my parents didn't want to allow lol...
    - And am going for Fifa 09 WCG without having even played a single game of it before lol... GG... And I'm like takin one full day leave for that... (Fyi, I play Fifa Online 2, which is totally different from Fifa 09 lol)
    - Ok I'm really damn sian now... Sucks...

    A Business Idea
    This is funny... Currently, at all Timezone Arcades, there is this deal available... You pay $5 for 8 plays of the Shooting Hoops (ie. 62.5 cents per game)...

    Nowadays, if the machine has 6 balls and is not screwed up or anything, I can hit a score of at least 360, which translates to 36 E-Tickets...

    At the rewards counter, if you have 33 E-Tickets, you can exchange those for one can of coke, which I can resell at the standard price of $1.

    Does this mean I earn 38.5 cents and a free Shooting Hoops game?

    Finally... Something Random...
    Finally found the energy and time to muster a little entry here lol...

    Finally qualified for Fifa Hyundai Cup after playing an astounding 120 Fifa games in 7 days, racking 96 wins 19 losses and 5 DCs (one DC came from me accidentally smacking my power plug after I scored against some guy in the 1st min lol...) against laggers, asshole bengs and egpytians who god-knows-why are playing on a Singapore server and making my Fifa game go frame-by-frame... Eventually, my score of 72 net wins was enough to qualify...

    Friggin elated that I can finally stop playing Fifa anymore and I'll be retiring from this stupid game after Hyundai Cup... Seriously, competitive gaming is sickshit...

    120 games x 10 mins per game (Longer if we go on to extra time and penalties)
    = 1200 mins
    = 20 hours
    = 2 hours and 51 mins of Fifa per day on average

    Can you imagine that some sick little boys (who are having their school holidays now) friggin played 250 games in that same 7 days? (Thank goodness they don't have a very high win to loss ratio, so they still didn't qualify eventually...)

    Temper has not been very good playing about an average of 3 hours per day of Fifa (its an average, on some days, I only play for about 1.5 hours, so on some days I play for about 4 hours +)... Especially so when meeting people who severely lag your game, or people who can't stop cursing you and your family on Fifa for no good reason and people who play cheat to rack up wins (they need to qualify too, and they friggin bombard pings non stop on backend to lag you...) But thank god, its all over...

    --- Enuff of rant ---

    RANDOM STUFF
    - Met the cute cute aunty from Candy Yong Tau Foo at Miramar just now haha!!! Then my sis and I went to talk to her for a while lol...
    - Went to Kbox yesterday with Dvdy, YH and ZY
    - Went to Kbox the day before for Family Day
    - Ok, actually apart the above few events, the rest of my time has been spent playing Fifa... Yes, I took about 3 half-day leaves last week to go home and play Fifa in the afternoon... So that I can play Dota with my unit mates at night lol...
    - Haven't applied probability in a long while since I've been busy gaming...
    - Glad that Ronaldo is now off to Real Madrid... Good riddance...
    - Sian lah... Nothing to talk about really... Lol...
    - Shall blog again next time lol, when I've done more stuff apart from just playing Fifa and Dota...

    SAFFC VS Tampines

    Why I Love The S-League...
    Lol... Went to watch SAF VS Home Utd with Meng just now...

    Damn friggin funny... Norikazu Murakami, amidst the massive turnover of players here and there amongst all the clubs, ended up in Home Utd from SAFFC... Then he was sent on to replace Itimi Dickson before the start of 2nd half during the team huddles...

    "The first Home Utd substitution... Number 12 Itimi Dickson is being replaced by Number 9 Norikazu Murakami!!!"

    THEN LOL... HE FRIGGIN RAN TO THE SAFFC SIDE FOR THE HUDDLE LOL!!!

    On a side note, haven't been blogging for long because all my time is spent training up my Fifa Online 2 team so that at least I don't end up using a 13k rating team against a 19k rating team...

    Geeezzz...

    Leong: OMG...
    HHC: Somemore we got quite physical.

    HHC: Park lah, less people...
    Leong: So who you go out with?
    HHC: You think leh? Eh, and seriously, it was damn physical lah...
    Leong: Who? Not *** or *** then can be who?
    HHC: Stupid Leong. Valentines Day evening cannot play soccer is it?
    Leong: Erpz...
    HHC: I didn't add that I got physical with 5 other guys also...

    MORAL OF THE STORY: Some people like to think too much.

    HHC goes to BPP NTUC. Sees a lady wearing the NTUC manager uniform and she's helping an old lady find some stuff.
    HHC: Sorry, Miss. Do you know where...
    Lady: Er, sorry, I don't work here...

    MORAL OF THE STORY: NTUC managers need not shop at their own workplace. (Actually I dunno in such cases who actually more paiseh...)

    HHC was in the office printing room... The handphone rings...
    HHC: Hello?
    Someone: Hi, this is ***** here... ... (We proceed to converse about something)

    5 seconds after ***** hangs up, I get an SMS from my cousin...

    Geeezzz...
    Haven't had the impetus or zest to post anything (interesting) for a long long long long time...

    And this post shan't be an interesting post either...

    Happy New Year everyone!
    Sunday, December 28th, 2008
    10:46 pm
    LOL!
    Today marks the very last AoP of the year (not that the year has many days left, hehe) for me, and LOL...

    I must say that AoP goes one full circle and kicks you in the butt...

    Today, $700 was gone with the LAST TOUCH of the ball in the game as Le Cong Vinh headed past the Thai keeper in the friggin LAST SECOND of the match to make it 1-1, meaning that Vietnam won the Suzuki Cup lol... (Not to mention that Thai had a perfectly onside goal disallowed in the first leg haha...)

    And so, as I round up my accounts of AoP for the year, thankfully, I (still) have made a total of $84 net profit LOL, which results in a haul of $14 per month... (No thanks to this Suzuki Cup haha...) Which is kinda laokui for all that math I had done earlier on only to be undone by Vietnam's super tyconess haha...

    $14 per month isn't that lucrative after all, maybe its time to change to 4D or Toto :P

    Hmmmz...
    Saturday
    - Ok, when to CJQ's house to play table tennis, X-box 360, eat preserved fruits, etc...
    - Then went to Lot 1 for lunch and arcade...
    - Saw Nick Ng on the bus, haha...
    - Finished lunch and stuff and were on our way to the terminus where I got intercepted by a lady selling Prudential investment trusts, she had wanted 5 mins of my time...
    - In the end, it became 45 mins...
    - Really hilarious but also tending towards sickeningly irritating session since she was pretty aggressive and it was obvious she wasn't putting forward the terms of the trust properly and clearly...

    Lady: For every 30k you put in over 25 years, you get back 18k guaranteed plus up to 20+k in unguaranteed bonuses...
    HHC: So, is this 18k on top of the 30k?
    Lady: For every 30k you put in over 25 years, you get back 18k guaranteed plus up to 20+k in unguaranteed bonuses...
    HHC: ...

    Lady: Look, each month you put in $100, at the end of the year you get back $750 in guaranteed returns.
    HHC: Er, but I put in $1200?

    Lady: *Does alot of Math* Look, you put in one month $100, you can get up to $30 of returns in the long term... This is definitely more than the 0.025% at POSB...
    HHC: But I earn much much more from gambling? $1000 in 6 months is definitely more than $30 per month...
    Lady: But can you ensure that you always win in gambling?
    HHC: Well, I can't but $1000 in 6 months sounds better to me...

    *HHC is gettin abit irritated, but I respect the fact that its a hot saturday afternoon and she still has to work... So I intended to go home to discuss with my parents...*
    HHC: Ok how bout this? Can I go home and consult my parents?
    Lady: Why do you need to consult your parents? You're old enough to make your decisions. Ok it seems you love your parents?
    HHC: Yeah
    Lady: Well, you can sign this policy now, chuck it in your drawer... Maybe years later, one fine day, when your parents open your drawer and see the policy, what will they think of you? They'll think of you differently, a mature young man... You should do this instead of gambling your money away...
    HHC: But I earn from my gambling, and much more than from this thing...
    Lady: Do your parents know about your gambling?
    HHC: Ya, I tell them each time I bet...
    Lady: *Stunned* Ok just wondering, what do you bet on?
    HHC: Singapore Pools soccer.
    Lady: Ok...

    *In the end, she relented only after I gave her my HP number...*

    Lady: *Turns to CJQ* So, I've talked so much to your friend. What do you think of this?
    CJQ: I have nothing to say.
    Lady: Why don't you consider as well?
    CJQ: I have nothing to say.
    (LOL! x 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)

    Evening was soccer with the dudes...

    Sunday
    - Met Galven and Lenny for lunch
    - Went to Grandma's house, LOL, then my uncle set up two TVs so we could watch both the Man Utd and the Singapore-Vietnam match at the same time...
    - Then the TVs were side-by-side
    - Rafael got a knock and was injured and my uncle suddenly went "EH? Rafael back liao! EH WRONG OMG! That's Shi Jiayi! Their hairstyle the same..."
    - Then my grandma came in and asked in Hokkien "Who playing?"
    - Then my uncle replied "Monkey"
    - I was like "Man Utd = Monkey?"
    - Uncle: No. Grandma only knows two people in soccer. Ronaldo and Sir Alex Ferguson. She knows Ronaldo as monkey.
    - Grandma (in Hokkien + Chinese): Ar noh! He looks like a monkey, especially his ears!
    - Grandma leaves.
    - HHC: Then what about Alex Ferguson?
    - Uncle: Jiat Qiu Nee Ting Eh Lang (The guy eating the chewing gum) (LOLWTFLOL!!!)
    - AND DAMN... Singapore lost... :( HAIZ...
    - Ok time to go to sleep, duty tomorrow...
    Friday, December 19th, 2008
    10:33 pm
    Hmmmz...
    Ok, shall do away with posting "work work" all the time...
    - Nothing much to talk about at work except my unit mates fascination with matchmaking me and L... Even when L is like at the other side of the globe for the week...

    Yesterday (Just a really really brief summary)
    - Went to Sentosa with the ISEF 08 peeps cuz I have too much leave to clear and they offered me the opportunity to down one full day of leave...
    - 1st time going to Sentosa in like a decade plus...
    - And I never knew Mr Davidy had such a great sense of punctualitiy until yesterday...
    - Sentosa is heaven and hell cuz there are bars EVERYWHERE lol...
    - I shan't go on about the things you can find all over Sentosa...
    - So we walked around to random places, so that the girls could take pictures while I stood there and watched Davidy get tekaned by them lol...
    - Eh basically the whole day was full of little things here and there that are abit "cumbersome" to blog here...
    - Then yeah, with all the ice-cream shops ALL OVER Sentosa, there was no way I could escape treating the rest of them to ice-cream...
    - And they were creative enough to use the Bens and Jerrys cups to try to build sandcastles, but to no avail and we ended up playing truth-or-dare...
    - And I always thought my little juniors were innocent, but they turned out to be a corrupting influence on me...
    - After a while, everyone was thirsty and we decided to go to a bar...
    - This time round, I became the corrupting influence...
    - Surprisingly, I got eeny weeny tipsy on just rum... Either cuz I drank too fast or cuz I think they used dark rum...
    - And now Davidy is enticed by the idea of gettin tipsy...
    - And WTH, Sentosa bar cocktails are quite suggestive lol... But somehow their cocktails don't have the alchoholic taste...
    - And I never knew YH was THAT adverse to C2H5O lol...
    - Then went for dinner after that...
    - Then after dinner, the girls went shopping while me and Davidy just had to look on... Then a moment of brilliance struck and we formulated the Soccer Analogy for girls shopping with their boyfriends (not that we are their boyfriends, but the analogy works better when its a girl shopping with her BF)

    Soccer & Shopping (Just putting random stuff we were commentating about while the girls were crazily shopping)

    - Girls shopping in general is like Arsenal. Passing here and there damn nicely, but never ever scores. Looking at items is like passing. Buying them is like scoring.
    - There's the Rooney shopper. Actively goes around taking up things to look at and then asking "should i buy?" all the time. When on form (during sales), she can score loads of goals. When off form, she can go around running all over the pitch but no score a goal.
    - There's the Fabregas shopper. Sees an item and cannot help calling all her friends over to take look. Is superb at creating plays for other players to score.
    - There's the Berbatov shopper. She walks around the shop slowly, just taking glances at things around her. But when she picks up a pass, she scores with deadly clinicality.

    - Boy asking girl to get out of a shop while she is shopping is a yellow card
    - Do it two times and you're sent off

    - Boy asks girl to get out of shop while she is shopping
    - Girl says "No!"
    *Boy receives YELLOW CARD*
    - Boy goes "Go lah!"
    *Boy receives SECOND YELLOW CARD for dissent*

    - Girl goes "Ok, buy this for me!" and starts walking towards the cashier
    - Boy goes "No!"
    *Straight RED CARD*
    - Last man foul

    - Girl picks up an expensive item is like trying to do an audacious 30 yard chip

    - Girl A shows Girl B a jacket (Its a great through pass...)
    - Girl B likes it and puts it on (She controls it well and is clean through one on one with the goalie)
    - Girl B looks in the mirror and then puts it back (Oooh... What a wasted opportunity as the ball strikes the post and goes out for a goal kick...)

    Bah... Too tired to go on... On hindsight, it doesn't seem as interesting on this blog as it really is, too difficult to blog about this, but nonetheless, there are still many funny analogies, maybe you can ask me in person for them haha...

    Today
    - Played 3v3 soccer in the hall...
    - Er, that's about it, lol..

    Bah, nothing much to blog about nowadays, shall find something interesting soon lol...
