Life is a roller-coaster - Ronan Keating

It's funny how things can just change so quickly. I guess it's all part of the roller-coaster ride of me life which i shud - but still haven't - get used to! :-)

Went to sleep feeling really moody and down. Was planning to attend the evening service today - but when i got up, i noticed the sun was up. And i felt strangely good!

In less than 5 mins, i was changed, washed and rushed down - met some of me church mates at the car park and challenged Michael (not flat-mate Michael) to see who reaches first, him in his car or me on foot! He won, but not by much! ;-)

After service, we started footie talk again! :-) Michael predicted a Liverpool win of 2-1! Yes, he was spot on. I'm impressed!!!!!

Walked back wif another mate - it was sunny, rainy, cloudy... typical British weather!

It was the perfect weather for some some curry laksa! So i tried it out - quite successfully, i must modestly add! ;-P Lack of ingredients - see hum, tau-foo pok, etc., but the taste was quite right!!!




Thereafter, it was to the SU Bar for the Community Shield! Haven't seen the bar so empty for a footie match!!!!

It was a good game - for us Reds' fans. The starting line-up surprised everyone - no Gerrard, no Alonso, no Bellamy, no Hyppia. But IMHO, the first half team performed really well! Pennant looked really good. Risse's goal was dream-like - taking the ball from deep in your own half all the way to the other end and unleashing a shot into the corner of the net! The defense held their line well - save for one occasion where they were punished by the clinical Shevchenko.

Bellamy impressed when he came on in the 2nd half and it was his brilliant cross which Crouchie put away to win up the Shield!

The future looks bright for Liverpool! Benitez has been shrewd in his buyings. Mourinho? It's obvious that he's leaving Chelsea after this season cuz his buyings dun reflect any looking forward - not to me anyways.

The man who made the biggest difference today? The guy who's career almost ended last season with an eye injury. Reds' fans are thankful he has recovered in a most impressive manner - Momo Sissoko!
