the prestige

i guess most of you have seen the movie 'the prestige'
or as i would call it batman vs wolverine
you may recall there are three stages to each magic trick
the pledge-the turn-the prestige
but i'm not going to talk about magic here
the only thing i can make disappear is myself
im going to explain it in the goalkeeping sense
i was playing futsal just now and came close to what i call the prestige in goalkeeping
the pledge - me presenting myself as the goalkeeper
the turn - the act of goalkeeping which means making the saves and stops to keep the ball out of the net, requires reflexes and anticipation
the prestige - keeping a clean sheet
sadly i have yet to achieve the prestige in goalkeeping
tonight after a good start i conceded 2 goals towards the end of the game
oh well
better luck next time

roadside by rise against

music
sometimes you find songs that describe the way you feel
when the combination of music and lyrics are spot on
here's the first verse and chorus of the song roadside by rise against

Tell me what I'm supposed to do,
With all these leftover feelings of you,
'Cause I don't know,
And tell me how I'm supposed to feel,
When all these nightmares become real,
'Cause I don't know,

And I don't think, you see the places inside me that I find new,
And I don't know, how we separate the lies here from the truth,
And I don't know, how we woke up one day somehow thought we knew,
Exactly what we're supposed to do

i tried jogging again

today i did something i haven't done in ages
jogging at taman lembah kiara
or the lake opposite the school near the mosque in ttdi
a friend of mine jogs there
so i figure i might as well give it try again
and since jogging alone is no fun
i would enjoy the company
but we jogged at our own pace
and i couldn't keep up with my friend
well a lot has change since i last went there
they even change the running surface
it use to be this rubber what-ever-you-call-it material
which made jogging fun
but now its a hard what-ever-you-call-it surface
and you use up more energy running
barely manage X laps
but had a good workout
the weather was friendly
the company was good
and i cannot feel my legs

i have no idea

'i have no idea'
a line made popular by chandler from the tv series friends
which i use most of the time
and has been caught on by some of my friends
yup, me a big friends fan
during lazy weekends
i pull out my friends dvd collection and watch a few episodes
no matter how many times you watch
you still laugh your head off
even though you know the scene
its just like those mastercard ads
priceless
its hard to pick out a favourite episode
cause they're all good for a barrel of laughs
but guess their thanksgiving episodes are fun
theres one in every season
one that stands out for me is the one where ross got high
especially the scene where ross and monica were ratting each other out
as for favourite character...rachel
maybe its a jennifer aniston thing...or maybe its my greek connections..i don't know
so if you are bored or just in need of a good laugh
watch friends
cause they'll be there for you

blogging begins

greetings all
just got on the blogging bandwagon
which i believe now is standing room only
what should you expect
guess ramblings about me and everything that happens around me

as for the title
simply cause i like black
probably the only colour thats works with me
as for the reason i'm blogging
simply to bore the population to death
