Stuart 'Physco' Pearce
I love this man. Great player with a wonderful left foot, great role model for his honesty, determination and never give up attitude, and now on his way to becoming a great(hopefully) manager. I can't think of anyone else in football quite like him anymore. Really enjoyed watching him play back at N.Forest, even his stint at Newcastle in the twilight of his career didn't stop him from giving 110% every single game. I could never forget the game at west ham where he was determined to get back on the field even though he could barely stand. It was later discovered that he actually had a broken foot! Truely physco, truely a great man. I salute you Pearce!
"I find the whole England situation quite embarrassing. I was in management for a couple of months when the first England stuff started. Then when we got one point out of four games over Christmas, no-one mentioned it. Suddenly, I win the derby and people are talking about England again. It is absolutely ludicrous and a massive slur on people who have been in club management for years. It is absolutely pathetic. I would not rule myself out of any job. But it is my belief someone should have international experience and many years in club management before they are considered for a job like England."

Stone the devil
Was reading the news that some 50 person died in a stampade in Saudi Arabia during the annual haj ritual of throwing stones at the devil. Seems to me that the devil is getting the last laugh.
Me? Bastard?
Was reading
lmd and a couple of posts make me really think back on my past.
Ya, I'm one of those bastards that she mentioned. I'm not proud of it, but I never hide that fact. I seriously believed I was going to hell at the point of time, if you consider some of the things I did. Luckily, I'm not a religious person so it did not really bother me. I'm not sure why but woman usually find me 'non-threatening', just another 'nice guy' when all I was looking for is yet another night of sex.
I'm not sure what got into me in those couple of years. Maybe its due to the loss of her, or maybe its due to the loss of faith in love, I dunno and I have no wish to find excuses for my actions. I've hurt alot of people along the way, many of whom displayed their dismay when they really found out what I was like, despite the intial good vibes that they have from me. I played that to my advantage, like a cat playing with its food...
I guess in a way, playing this game, and winning, makes me feel like I'm worth something. To be able to seduce or rather sell yourself to a total stranger is so exciting, tantalising, such an ego boost.... guess that was what all that was about....
I no longer have that urge. Not since I meet her. :) But then again, sometimes I wonder, will I ever go down that route again? When one day, I do not feel loved or wanted anymore, and I'll need to do something to justify my self-worth. To a guy, that means to fuck around. Pathetic but true.
Boring new year
Its another year, and its the same old routine you're seeing everywhere again. People looking back/reflecting on the year just passed, setting new resolutions and predictions for the new year. BOOOORIIINGGG.......
Maybe its just me, cos none of these things ever work for me.
I hate looking back. I know that there is this saying that 'those who do not understand the mistakes of history are likely to commit them again'(or something like that lah)but then again, I'm really someone that never learns, or what my mother always refers to as 讲不听or 'gong bu tia' since young. I dun really see how reflecting will do me much good as I'll get very fustrated that although I didn't do something properly, yet there's nothing I can do to change it. So I prefer not to look back at all.
As much as I hate to look back, I hate to plan forward too. I like to do things spontaneously, spur of the moment. It gives me much more statisfaction when I managed to get it done, as well as the adrenaline rush in going into something knowing nothing. Besides, if I'm so good at predicting whats going to happen next, I might as well just aim to stike toto or 4d every other week or so, and retire happily ever after. We all wish we could do that sometimes don't we?
What New Year RE-Solution?
Why do people like to make promises/targets for the new year, forget it for the next 10 mths, and try to rush to meet the targets in the remaining mth of the year, and finally, bringing it forward for another year with a little changes here and there. -_-" thats the idea of resolution, to RE(package) your soultion for the other year, its basically crap. Why to we have to make resolutions only on Jan 1? so if the resoultion is to lose 5kg off that fat ass, why can't we make the resolution to do so before xmas where we tend to binge a whole lot of junk over the festive period?(or is that the whole point anyway? eat more 1st then diet? hahaha!)
What would you do if the world is coming to an end in the next hour?
Suddenly thought of this funny joke that I came across quite some time ago. This man was asking his friend the above question,
"What would you do if the world is coming to an end in the next hour?"
his friend replied, "well, i supposed i'll screw the closest woman i can find no matter young, old, fat or skinny. hell, i'll basically screw anything that moves!"
"what about you?" his friend counter-asked him
after a long while, the man replied, "I'll stay perfectly still, and not move a muscle...." :D
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
