First up. Thanks a million to all the peeps for all those well-wishes. I shall try to 'adapt' a new take in life. From Jan, Such & the rest of the GB Family, yes, I will try to be more feminine; from dear Luis, I shall treasure my last year as a teenager with my life & from silly BBR, I shall cut down on crappy talk & rubbish sentences, whatever they may be. I think you talk more crap than me, but whatever makes you happy, dude. Okay, to the whooooole list of people that wished me a happy birthday, thanks so much. Many thanks to:

Luis Daffie Poo Garcia. Nur. BBR. Jan. Mada. Such. Honeybuns Raizan. PK. Mazlan. Art. Chippy. The 4 Sisters Alonso: Fatin, Adlyn, Nuryn & Nini. Mummy Alonso. Mich. Pretty. Gaya (ugh). Mummy Lin Alonso. Cousin Farah Alonso. Cousin Hafez Alonso. Cousin Nora Alonso. Cousin Diana Egyptian Non-Alonso. Mummy Liz Egyptian Non-Alonso. Daddy Nasser Egyptian Non-Alonso. Mummy Nor Alonso. Auntie Nina Alonso. Uncle Bobbin Alonso. Uncle Dino Alonso. Nanny Alonso. Sharon. Joann. Asyura. Shereen. Cousin Sofia. Janice Chua. Ahmad.

And whoever whom sent me text messages on my cell, I'm so sorry I couldn't reply any of you. My mobile got confiscated. Okay. Don't laugh. 500++ minutes of talktime with Daph was what got me into trouble. But it's okay because every minute is worth it. Always. And now Luis is in KL. Boo-hoo. She'll only be back on Tuesday, so, Luis, you enjoy yourself, okay?? Just do what you gotta do & have loads of fun. You deserve every bit of it.

Okay, rewind all the way back to Friday night. Phat Nite '05 wasn't as successful as it's predecessor which was done by our batch. The deco was well, not horrible but not nice either. It wasn't a full-house so there was plenty of space for most of us. The podium was out of bounds for regular dancers, for God knows what reason. The music was played by a live DJ but the thing was that when it was good, it was very good. When it was bad, it was horrible. Because there was so much reggae, it sucked. Thankfully, they splurged on the F & B; there were mocktails now when they didn't allow it last year & there were mini sandwiches as well as a free flow of drinks. So, we didn't exactly starve.

We took loads of pics, though. Seeing Jan & Such, PK & Mazlan, Chippy, Art & Mada again really brought the atmosphere up a notch. It wasn't much of the clubbing night that made the impact but the people around. Well, my friends, so to speak. And I got sabo-ed by being left alone while the two girls went off to get my presents without me knowing. And there I sat all alone like an idiot; I kept asking Chippy where the 2 girls went & he assholicly kept shrugging & saying he didn't know.

In the end though, the girls came back with a big frosted plastic bag with something orange inside & handed it to me, saying it was from as usual, the GB Family. Like duhh, I nearly cried. Not because I was given a present. Because they left me alone!! And they knew that if I was with friends, i couldn't stand being alone & so they used that against me as a form of sabotage. But, the presents were great; a medium-sized orange tote bag, nice turqoise bracelet & a pair of pink earrings to match my pink boots, according to them. Jan has hopes of me becoming more feminine hence, the earrings. I will try, yes. The keyword here is WILL TRY. Not necessarily instantaneous.

Such's party however, was even MORE interesting than Phat Nite. Actually, her party rocked. Great food, great music & even greater company. The whole GB Family was there, with the exception of Kity, Van, PK & Honeybuns Raizan. And ugh, someone unwanted.

Kinda boogied the night away & I think we'd probably be up till morning if it weren't for my kid sisters. Yeah, I brought 3 of them over & well, suffice to say, all of them were a hit with the crowd. And the silly GB guys just HAD to tease me & call me the mother of just because of them. Of course, everyone said Nini was a mini replica of me, curls & all.

In the end, Art & Mazlan had to send the four of us home via a cab all the way from Woodlands to my area then to Pasir Ris because both of them had a chalet to attend to. Well, I did pay just a little for my share, even though the cab ride was worth a lot more. But that was all I had!!

Nini knocked out on the way & Adlyn was also near the knock-out stage but all 3 had fun. They were so amused by our antics, the guys' craziness; it was just wild.

Anywayz, thought of doing a photoblog but well, a little too lazy. Maybe tomorrow or something. Counting down the day when Luis comes home. There'll be loads to say, I'm sure. I just miss her a lto, that's all. Hoping to get my pay soon & we can eat Old Chang Kee like we used to.

And by the way, Manchester United won against Aston Villa, 1-0!! Silly Mazlan heard the WRONG INFO. Don't know who gave the guy the news that the score was reversed. Guhh!! Ruud van Nistelrooy scored that one, much to the dislike of Jan. Both she & Art were busily jumping around at the news of Man Utd's loss. But when I checked the day after, the fact was that they won!! And NOT the other way around. Hey, I'm a Liverpool fan too okay, Art!!?? So, you just shut up. At least I'm an ABC fan. That's Anything-But-Chelsea fan, by the way. Ahahahahkz!!

And yay!! I scored for Liverpool against Sunderland!! You hear that, Luis?? I scored a GOAL from a free-kick. Hah!! They were commenting some stuff about the strikers not being able to score goals anymore, with Mori & Cisse having glaring misses & it took me, a midfielder to step up & get that ball into the back of the net. Watch out, Luis. I'll be catching up with that goal count of yours. Rafa should be pissing mad with them for the lack of display. I mean, isn't that what strikers are for, Luis?? To score goals?? We midfielders just create chances for everybody. And for God's sake, it was freakin' Sunderland!! New boys of the Premiership!! How maluating could it get?? We should've been getting 2, 3 goals rather than that puny goal I scored.

And yet the sad part of it is that a midfielder had to be the one preventing an embarrassing stalemate from happening. Oh well, Rafa had better upped my salary. Kidding!!

And, eww, Chelsea won. Again, by a lucky goal that so happened to bounce off his shin past Jens Lehmann. In Jose Mourinho's words, "You call that a goal??". Ahahahakz!! Seriously, people. I wanted Arsenal to win but was hoping for a stalemate between the two. At least Arsenal is the lesser of the two evils. Oh well, I hope we do a great job when we're up against them next week. The very best of luck to us, man. We lost to them last season; we'd better not do the same this time around. Or Rafa'll blow. Our performances haven't been up to par yet & we have a Champions League game coming up soon!! Tomorrow, to be exact, with CSKA Susan -I mean, Sofia!! Susan is what that silly ballpicker calls them. Gosh, how time flies.

Anywayz, I found this little snippet of a song for you, Luis, on the web while I was surfing around. You know how it is here at SingTel.

"Lu-Is Gar-Cia
He Drinks San-Gri-A
He Came From Barca
To Bring Us Joy
He's 4 Foot 7
He's Football Heaven
Oh Please, Don't Take Our Luis Away..."

Whahahahakz!! Hope you enjoyed that, Luis. See, it's confirmed you wouldn't be sold off or trasnferred anywhere else because the fans love you!! So you needn't worry. But, do step up your game a little, ehh, buddy?? You've yet to hit the scoresheet this time around; I know it's because Rafa usually plays you as a sub or you get subbed but at least put on a world-class performance. If not for your sake, for the team's sake. And I will see you in training soon!!

Laterz...
