Minggu ni Arsenal tak berapa handsome?

i was watching Champion's League highlights tadi.

tiba tiba tension sebab Arsenal tak capable of playing a fast-paced game (well, ok perhaps Walcott was fast and he did overrun the two Shakhtar Donesk players, but we lost the game anyway didnt we?)

maybe i should stop following EPL and support Ajax and just watch Champion Leagues instead. 

it's a tempting thought. 

for a start, i dont have to be frustrated with Arsenal week in week out. 

aaaaand, the MU fans would probably get off my back over games that funnily enough, i do not play in but somehow get made fun of.

GARR. 

sense of loyalty hmph!. 

-_-'

(hahaha bitter gila ntah apa apa ntah)

Arsenal vs. Manchester City

fuh.

after 45 minutes of nail-biting, they made a comeback.

Nasir, Bendtner, Song,

tonight korang lelaki paling handsome atas muka bumi! 

:)

Thank you Fabianski, for not pulling a Rob Green.

Thank you Adebayor, for the almost-own-goal. It wouldve been so much better if it wasnt an 'almost'. Imagine the entire Arsenal team sliding in front of Man City's supporters, showing off,  just like you did last season. Imagine. Fuh. That would be swell!

Thank you.

Thank you for not being a disappointment tonight.

Thank you for this feeling of triumph! (you know how long it has been..)

Thank you for making it worth skipping studying for my test. 

:)

Arsenal vs. Chelsea

1. Benci tak bila 1st, 2nd, 8th, 28th minute ada goal attempt tapi haram satu pun tak masuk?

2. Benci tak bila match against big teams je tak boleh nak menang? Nak seri pun susah. Kalau setakat menang dengan West Brom Bolton and the likes je buat apaaaaa.

3. Benci tak bila there's nothing to be proud of sebab team sendiri dah bertahun tahun tak menang league?

4. Benci tak bila Arshavin perform the first few games je lepas tu showed the world that he's just an old guy who cant even run properly after the ball?

5. Benci tak bila ball possession dah 62-38 to our advantage pun still tak boleh score lagi?

6. Benci tak bila Chelsea's first goal was by accident terkena kaki sekali heyyyyy WTF MASUK PULAAAAKKKK? Dah lepas tu Drogba boleh bajet Elvis pulak tepi padang. Hotdaymn.

7. Benci tak bila player Arsenal lembik gila sikit sikit nak injured?

8. Benci tak bila tengok Koscielny macam takde contribution? Since his debut, kerja asyik nak injured, lepas tu kena yellow card. Pfft.

9. Benci tak bila ada striker yang tak reti nak tendang bola, reti header je. (read : Chamakh)

10. Benci tak bila Fabregas takde, it's as if semua orang doesnt have a clue what to do and bercamaraderie di atas padang? 

11. Benci tak bila delay journey nak balik UTP just to watch the game tapi kalah bodoh macam ni?

12. Benci tak bila in addition to all these, ada suara suara sumbang bahan Arsenal dengan semangat sebab pergi tengok bola dekat area Chelsea's supporters?

BENCI.

I repeat. BENCI. 

p/s : tapi at least Arsenal tak kalah dengan Blackpool dekat turf sendiri, unlike some people. hahahah. (cheap shot, i know)

Arsenal Vs. Liverpool

First game of the season, and already we were facing the losers of last season (or so i thought at the time).

The  first half was sloooooooowww.
Serious tak faham kenapa Arsenal players refused to run.

Sayang sayang sekelian, kalau setakat nak power walk, baik suruh Watson Nyambek je play for Arsenal.

Haaa, macam ni lah bila Fabregas takde,
semua kelam kabut tak tau which direction to head to.
This is the reason behind Wenger's insistence tak nak give in to Barca okaaay.

Tapi tak kisah lah, lari slow pun takpe, sayang still sayang jugak.

Even though I dengar plenty of voices (suara suara murtad) who claims nak give their loyalty to Blackpool after the game, Arsenal tetap di hati ku eceeeh.

ok siapa boleh teka apa tengah jadi ni? heheh

Koscielny, Chamakh and Wilshere made their debut semalam.

(who here thinks that Chamakh looks a bit like C. Ronaldo, angkat tangan!!)

I think it is due to the amount of newbies kot that they kind of fumbled on the field.

Jadi super geram bila ball possession was definitely monopolized by the Gunners, tapi tak boleh langsung nak penetrate Liverpool's defense.

OK lah, their defense was airtight, ill give them that.

Tapi, after Joe Cole got sent off (hehe) and dah down to 10 man pun, Arsenal still couldnt get the ball pass the goal line.

I loved it when they sent in Rosicky and Walcott. And when Persie came in, rasa macam ada newfound hope. As if, Wenger ada some kind of back-up plan, some secret weapon that i had no idea existed.

(hee. but then again, that was just me being melodramatic.)

orang handsome yang wouldve scored if it werent for Reina punya fingertips

Rosicky attempted a very dramatic and cantik shot, but Reina managed to stop the ball by a fraction.

At the time, i dah maki maki dah bising macammana lah Reina boleh on form gila pulak malam ni. Serious stress dengan Reina. (just take a look at my love-hate relationship with Almunia. memang bakar aa)

Tapi tapi tapi. Jeng jeng jeng. What came next got me laughing. Ta-da!

okay. ini Chamakh being violated by Reina. ngahahaha.

ok look closely

i said LOOK! ni dah slow motion habis dah ni.

aaaaaaaaaaaaanddddd... GOAL!!!!!!

Wahaahah. epic okay Reina!
serious boleh gang dengan Rob Green! LOL.

p/s : i read another review by Ms. Aisyah Ezral and loved it. Suka sangat sampai naik bulu roma satu badan baca. Hahahaha. Click HERE to read. 

Birmingham Blues

benci game ini.

i hated the fact that :

-our first goal was not considered
-they kept doing that last minute goal thing. haa kan dah backfire hari ni
-Vermaelen couldnt do shit to help
-it took Arsenal so long to penetrate Birmingham's defense
-there were so many drama queens on the field today
-the split screen kept on coming up, bragging about Chelsea's goal after goal
-MU won 4 nil against Bolton when we only won 4-2

and last but not least,

-my teh ais was so manis it felt like i was drinking a can of susu pekat manis F&N.

bleugh.

dj HitzFM kata gloat tu bagus!

kata salah seorang DJ Hitz FM pagi semalam :
gloating is the best part of winning.
(sempena kemenangan Man Utd over Liverpool)

but dont you think that that is mere bullshit?
(MU fan memang suka biat statement bullshit, offence intended)

If we gloat,
dan nak hebahkan our success,
does it not cancel out the victory itself?

p/s : Arsenal pun menang jugak.
pp/s : Ini bukan gloating.

Sekian terima kasih.

Arsenal oh Arsenal!

Yesterday i bumped into Timmy at the local mamak and he asked me why i havent been updating much on Arsenal .

Honestly, i think it has a lot to do with our horrific loss over Manchester United and Chelsea.
Nak bangga menang dengan Liverpool pun tak boleh, i mean, siapa tak menang over Liverpool kan? *sly grin*

But yeah, i think i lost my momentum because it wasnt like it's enough that your own team disappoints you, your friends would have to join in and make you feel like stuffing a cigarette box of 20 for mocking The Gunners as well.

OK.
Nak dengar cerita?

During the match with MU, i was rushing to catch the game, tapi sebab game start pukul 12 and i only left KL around 1145 or so, terpaksa la dengar BFM punya live commentary (which totally sucked by the way, sebab tak dapat tgk apa jadi and terpaksa rely on the commentator, tapi commentator biased towards MU teramat la sangat nya. menyampah!).

I seriously drove laju gila tak agak agak (kalau dapat saman speedtrap lepas ni, sorry Papa, tak sengaja. heheh) just so i'd get to watch sikiiiiiit hujung hujung game tu pun jadi lah.

And i made it on time. Pecah record drive from KL to Perak tak sampai 2 jam. Dapat la tengok the last 15 minutes of the game.

Now, dah la i sampai dah memang nampak takde harapan nak menang. And when the game was over, my fear was proven. Kalah memalukan. Anyway, as if that was not enough, Mok (who, yes, knowing my luck had to be an MU supporter) who was sitting right next to me, boleh pulak hantar SMS membakar dan menggelakkan kekalahan.

Not one SMS. Not two. Not even three. He sent FOUR.

AND I WAS SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM! Mulut dia tengah bergerak lagi kutuk Arsenal, and at the same time message terus masuk dalam phone, also from Mok, also kutuk Arsenal.

Baik kan kawan kawan i? :)

And dont get me started on the Chelsea game. Dah dah malas nak cakap.
Hehe.
So, yeah, that's my excuse.

But i guess since we've won 5-0 over Porto, and since we're back on the running to win the title, I'm sort of getting my mood back.

I mean, our chance is just as good as Chelsea and MU i think. Out of the 9 games, we just have to make sure that we win one game extra dari MU. And for Chelsea to, i dont know, drop dead. Hahaha.

Tapi, i think it's not that bad lah. Out of the 9, yang paling menggerunkan pun would be Manchester City, other than that, boleh menang kot (ok, i hope i tak jinx it by saying it. hehe).

MU still has to face Chelsea (i dont know who i'd rather have lose. It's really a tough decision).

Look at it this way, after the Burnley fiasco, pundits and critics and even some fans were bashing Bendtner. And he rose from the ashes (cehceh macam phoenix pulak) and did well in the Porto game.

Mana la tau, after this people will start picking on Diaby ke, tiba tiba ambik kau, 15 goal terus. Heheh. Well, it's not wrong to dream kan? :P

bak datang!

Weh weh! Perasan tak!
Arsenal punya fans biasanya (BIASANYA ok? itu equivalent dengan USUALLY. bermakna, bukan all the time ok? ok?) sangat hebat critic team sendiri.

We love the team,
we have faith in the players,
but we are also, at the same time, realistic.

Among ourselves,
laju je nak kutuk kebangangan own goal own goal sekalian.
And betapa weak nya defense at times.

Tapi tapi tapi.
Kalau fan lain kutuk,
we will laju laju come to the rescue
(budget Superman padahal Wenger bukannya kenal pun kita!)

Kami realistic.

Bukan mcm fan sesetengah team tu.
Diaorang menang ke, kalah ke, main hebat ke, main macam gampang ke,
Kalau cerita mesti nak paling gebang.

Kata mereka, MU lah yang undefeatable tu (oops, terdisclose nama. sorry!). MU la yang selalu bawak balik piala.

Ah iye!
Humble much, folks?

*grins*

p/s : see you this weekend!

nak berlagak sementara sempat

'nuff said.

the revelations of 2009

1. In order to avoid bullshit splattering all over your windscreen of life (oh pelik nya metaphore!), all there is to hold on to is "dont do to others what you dont want to be done unto you". Percaya la. saya tak tipu.

2. Sometimes love can be right in front of you, but you are the one finding excuses to avoid it.

3. And sometimes, what is in front of you is not a lover, but more of an emotional tormentor. But you, YES YOU, are too busy being in denial to realize it.

4. Life makes more sense, and gives you less headache, when you dont spend your time agonizing over every little scrap of problems.

5. Having awesome friends (and by awesome, i mean those who doesnt judge you and those who will be there when you've just gotten your scholarship AND also when you are more miskin than the blind guy who collects money dekat Uptown Damansara) is equivalent to you being able to handle anything that life might inflict on you.

6. Feelings are confusing. Roll with it.

7. It IS possible to feel for more than one person. It is up to you what to do with it.

8. It seems that Manchester United fans received a MU fan handbook upon their christening. This can be seen from their scripted comebacks and arguments with non-MU fans.

9. This season is Arsenal's own goal season.

10. Awesome bands will always have performances in Singapore and skip Malaysia even though in terms of size, Singapore is just as big as Malaysia's toenail.

To be continued.

Arsenal Vs. Chelsea

now now now.
where should i start.

what about the fact that watching the match was like watching a 'sukaneka for kindergarten toddlers'?

the ball barely penetrated Chelsea's defense and there were too many goofballs horseplaying on the field.
GET A ROOM!

im not dissing my own team, no im not. (I REALLY AM NOT!!)
its just that, i dont want to be a sore loser who blames the ref when its clear that our own attack plan PHAILED big time.

i mean, come on!! what is it with Arsenal and scoring their own goals each time theres a big match?

Nadim said : I rasa Arsenal punya player requirement is that diorang kena reti own goal. tak reti buat own goal, tak boleh main for Arsenal.

wahahahaahah. siot betul.
eh okay okay. tak gelak.

With Van Persie out for 5 months, i dont know how we can survive this season.
No choice but to have faith that Wenger will cook something up soon enough.
I dont get why he refuses to use the money from selling off Adebayor to get good strikers.

Oh. and dont get me started on how slow Eduardo was.
(not that im confident of outrunning him, but it still, im no professional football player)
It's infuriating how EVERYONE outran him. sigghhh.

And i gotta admit, Chelsea's first goal was awesome.
At first, i thought the ball will go over the goalpost.
When it went in instead, i sat there dumbfounded, unaware of what just happened (in denial, more like)

But but but the second goal was truly a disappointment.
I did not expect this coming from Vermaelen.
I didnt take him for the scoring-own-goal kind.
Tsk tsk.

Thats enough disappointed rants to last me throughout the season.
Im getting back to my presentation.
Chao.

edited : i just remembered! did anyone see when Traore did a backflip and landed on his feet! whoah. i think he should just become a gymnast or something.

Aku Pathetic

i badly wanted to watch the Arsenal game.
All we needed was a win, and for MU to lose. (the latter did not disappoint me)

The homeboys wanted to leave early and watch the Liverpool MU game,
and since my car was a bit effed up, beggars cant be choosers ey?

Clad in an Arsenal jersey (pinjam Iylia punya because mine has sos cili all over the front),
dengan penuh animated nya i made an entrance at the mamak stall,
only to find out that our table was sooooo far behind that i could barely make out the screen in front of me, nampak hoodie mamat tinggi kat depan je. Cis.

Not having enough sleep,
campur lagi dengan paranoid sebab ada dua abang polis duduk dekat meja belakang (yes, in case you dont know, police terrifies the shit out of me, for no good reason).
this was what happened:


Last last, the boys left after MU dengan penuh kemaluan kalah 2 nil to Livvie.
And i DID NOT GET TO WATCH THE ARSENAL MATCH SECARA LIVE.

Nasib baik blk bilik the video was already up. Sheesh.

Moral of the Story : Tak payah poyo pakai jersey if ur not even gonna be watching the match.

ok tak mahu jadi sore loser tapi kena juga cakap - MANCHESTER BODOH.

ok tak.
man city main agak hebat
(saying this with clenched teeth)

tapi ADEBAYOR BODOH.
ughhhhhhhh.

ok lets begin right from the start shall we?
no wait.
i changed my mind.
sakit hati kalau cerita dari awal.

but i despise Adebayor because when with Arsenal, he played like a jackass.
Nampak sangat main sebab duit.
Hmph.

And the fact that he purposely ran across the field just to buat that Ronaldo slide in front of Arsenal fans, is just plain bongok.
Dude, what have you got to prove?
Kau dah score kot, tak payah laaa.
There's a reason why diorg letak fans kat belakang tiang gol.
so that tak payah struggle nak lari jauh2 kalau ye pun nak slide.
Hish.

Dah la kau calar kan muka Van Persie.
(kan dah kurang handsome dah dia)
Padan muka kena ban dua game.

But the game was indeed disappointing.
Yeah, i know Wenger is more for a beautiful game rather than it being just a showbiz.
Tapi kalau game mesmerizing but kalah jugak nak buat apa Encik Arsene?
Pfft.

Arshavin was not around.
(groin injury lagi. patutnya biar Diaby je suffer from that lama lama. tak de la buat rookie mistakes)
and they shouldnt have attempted that formation pun without him there.
Sigh.

1-1 blh la accept lagi.
At the point when we were down 4-1,
i half laughed, half merungut:
Ini up sikit je dari Burnley ni.

Tapi 4-2 is just too much weyh.
Too much.

Ah benci lah.
Kan aku dah rugi Dunhill 20.
takmau bet lagi lepas ni.

p/s : to those yang prone to murtad-ness (you know who you are), tolong lah hold on and dont burn your jerseys just yet. :)

Arsenal - Man City

After the last rumble with MU,
i half considered hiding under my duvet
(and tutup sebelah mata)
while watching the game with Manchester City.

Though that would mean watching the match in frustration,
as the wireless kat campus ni unreliable.
Oh, and not to forget,
I might just catch Adebayor's cocky ass getting kicked
(im hoping, literally)
on the field.
(though he has been the best-scorer for Man City setakat ni. Cis. Masa dengan Arsenal nak main bodoh bodoh je.)

Plus, Toure would be playing captain for the match.
The drama factor is too yummy to pass.

Ok.
After the few monologues with self (and this blogpost),
I have decided that I, Fithri Natasha, will be at the Mamak place (exact location has not been identified) wearing the jersey dengan penuh hopeful.

:)

I will see you there.

Arsenal Vs. Manchester United. ughh ughhhh.

The game started off slow.
And as it went on, i thought to myself
"game ni sebenarnya nak assess siapa yang can score the most goals ke, the most kad kuning? Kalau kad kuning macam ada chance je Arsenal nak menang.."

It wasnt lack of faith, mind you.
Just look at them go down one by one.
In the beginning, macam cartoon tahu tak?
Tendang bola sikit, jatuh.
Dribble sikit, injured.
Pfft.

And dont get me started on the yellow cards.
Song, Gallas, Sagna, Eboue, Almunia, Van Persie.
Boy, were we on a roll!

Of course 3 MU players got it as well.
But to double that, Arsenal, really?

The first goal by Arshavin was really really good.
It was fastttt.
He's short but man, can he run!
It was utter brilliance, im telling you.
The satisfaction i got from texting the MU fans:
Wooohooo! *tawaf keliling padang*
was priceless.

At the end of the first half, i even took a picture of the current score on the screen, and mms-ed it to the rivals.

Little did i know, it was gonna backfire on me.

That penalty kick.
Ughhhh.
Rooney took the chance when Almunia rashly dived for the ball.
Pandai kau berlakon uhh nak dapat penalty.
Smartass.
And they scored, resulting in me receiving the same message that i sent earlier on.

And 5 minutes later, the smart SMAAARTTT (ini namanya sarcasm) diaby messed up.
sigh.
its too frustrating, i dont even wanna get into it.

and when all hopes seem lost,
and we were praying for some last minute miracle,
Van Persie scored us an equalizer.

I was shouting and screaming out of joy (sambil berdiri ye) in the middle of Rasta,
when tak sampai 5 seconds later,
i saw Wenger's classic (oh itu priceless) expression and terduduk (me, not Wenger).
This was immediately followed by the MU fans to scream and shout,
rubbing it on our faces.

Bodoh la boleh offside pulak.
Sigh.

There goes our winning streak.
Takpe, kita tak pernah kalah lagi main dekat Emirates.
We'll bring it on, wont we.

p/s: serious kalau time tu tgh pakai jersey, boleh break down menangis kat tengah2 alam.

there's no use crying over spilt milk unsaved report

As of today, my blog has turned one! Whippee! :D

Happy Birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, Happy birthday
Violent Violet Volkswagen

Baby, here's to our one year anniversary and its 370 something post babies. :)

So yeah, now you know im that geeky girl who sits in front of the pc all day and blog about life instead of going out and enjoying it. Ta-dah!

Ive been out of touch this past few weeks tho,
i wrote a 60 page report and on the day that im supposed to submit it,
my pc died on me along with the unrecovered pages.
So i've to start all over again from page one.
Here's to another few days of skipping classes and 3 hour naps. Tch.

I'd better get back to my report now.
It wont let me rest til i see the end of it.
Gahh.

P/s: was complaining to a friend that Tronoh is a desert. Blazing hot in the day, and freezing cold at night. And when asked where would i stay if given the chance and i answered bumming by the beach (read: Bora Bora or Hawaii) he called me a hypocrite. Duduk panas complain, tapi berangan nak jadi budak pulau. Pfft.

Pp/s: oh, you heard that we kicked Celtic's ass, didnt you? Next game, bring it on Portsmouth.

i wish

1. we have more than 24 hours a day.
2. im not such a lazy ass
3. im not as exhausted and tired from thinking
4. she wont be pushed so hard, and get the happiness that she deserves for once.
5. The Beatles were still recording phenomenal songs
6. Arsenal will kick MU's ass for once
7. i can just get a break for once. capek tau ngak.
8. i can just curl up and do nothing
9. i could express what i really want to say
10. i can sing like Fiona Apple
11. Doraemon would appear from my drawer
12. love doesnt have to be so medieval

a big win, as expected

i knew it.
i simply knew it.
confirm la kita welcome walk in kena penuh stylo kan.
pasti la menang besar.

fast game indeed.
one blink.
satu goal.
blink lagi.
ehh, Vermaelen score laa. tak sia sia beli.
third blink.
score lagii.
(dah malas nak blink)
score lagi lagi and lagi.

LOL.
Everton's attempt was just too lame.
Last minute gila(literally).
tu pun kena bakar balik in the end dengan Eduardo (who's not as hideous as he used to be, surprisingly.hoho)

Back in '58, Everton faced the same loss, also di tangan Arsenal.
It didnt matter that Walcott, Rosicky, Djourou and Diaby were out
(paling kelakar Diaby ok. Groin injury. hahaha.)
Arsenal kicked ass jugak anyway.

Welcome back Gunners.
What a grand entrance.
Lets hope this is a comeback.
Hehh.

Love,

Dissing The One from Togo.

oh no.
in general i do not have anything against people of the Togo nation.
but a particular one called Emmanuel Adebayor, i have a problem with.

it has nothing to do with conforming to all the other Arsenal fans.
no no no.

its just that, amidst all this kelam kabut of his move to Man City, my (pretty pretty Anna Sui themed) iGoogle page has been infested with his stupid statements. And now that im all stressed out due to some unfortunate workload (oh hello procrastination!) ive decided to lash out on what an egomaniac that ass of Ronaldo-punya-tahap-conceited player is.

:)

"The way the fans behaved towards me was not nice at all. I cant understand why they were after me. I scored 30 goals in a season - it's not my fault that Milan, Barcelona or Real Madrid wanted to sign me. In any summer, Barcelona try to sign Cesc Fabregas. But the fans never turned on him."

Get what i mean about him being pompous?

Yeah. Okay so he scored 30 goals back in the 07/08 season. Stop holding on to that dork! In the 08/09 season, his goals-to-games ratio was pathetic. I guess he was too comfortable thinking that he's the man and all.

The only thing i remembered him do in the last season was the half-okay performance when they were against Villareal. Besides that, nada. If i would want to be grateful about anyone's existance in the team last season, it definitely wont be Adebayor's. Kudos will have to go to say Arshavin (and perhaps even Bendtner) but not Mr Emmanuel here, no.

And yeah, be a sore loser and try to put the lights on Fabregas instead. Haha. At least Cesc wasnt being a greedy asshole. Unlike some people.

I dont know what Man City has up their sleeves, paying 25mil for a jerk like that. Haha. i guess theyre hoping that he'd do wonders and magic for them this coming season. Well, good luck with that. At least we are now 25 mil richer and one asshole shorter.

:)

lash out session ends here.

its annoying when ur viewing Arsenal's homepage and there's an MU advert popping up. potong dowh.

so far, it looks like Wenger wont be carting in as many players.
is that in the plan, or tak cukup duit, or the offer that he's putting in is simply not that attractive?
yang mana? yang mana?

all ive seen are contract extensions and the gunners telling the world, that no, theyre not going anywhere, theyre staying kat Arsenal.

Ho hum.

Im still trying to figure out what Arsene has hidden under his sleeves. It has better be something good.

Im tired of looking like the idiotic semangat lebih girl in the jersey at the end of the game. Kamaaan. Next season, i wont have to wake up at 8am to go to work. So i can sit still at the mamak and watch the game. Dont disappoint me.

(macam la Wenger baca blog ni kan? :P)
