Merdeka Eve + miscellaneous

First of all Happy Independence day to all the Malaysians there who felt that they are a true Malaysians, and therefore a truly Asian(just some quote from the tourism Malaysia). To those who went for countdown, I hope you enjoy your outing, and those who did not, I hope you enjoy whatever you do.

I've mentioned too many times, 30th August and 31st August meant too much for me in the past that whenever it comes to this date, at this hour (10.00pm), I'll be ultra sensitive and emotional. It's like Werewolves and full moon thingy. The funniest thing is that I only had a rough idea what I did last year, but I had a clear picture of what I did in 2003 and 2006. It accumulates all the emotional feelings these days. First from the feeling of "so close yet so far", and then some issue of a friend here being kicked out of Germany, the final month in this Student house, the never-ending thesis, and the Merdeka decease in me. To worsen things, I'm feeling pain around my right knee for no reason today, and hopefully it's nothing serious as it looks swollen. No, I didn't knock anything and I didn't put any excessive stress on the knee. It's just so sudden that i felt this pain.

Yesterday I watched UEFA super cup, Zenit St. Petersburg vs Manchester United. I am a MU fan, but i can say they suck so far in the last few matches. Paul Scholes would have been a wonderful Volleyball (or handball) player. I mean, what the heck is he thinking?? Already booked and still played a handball on purpose?? They should get Berbatov ASAP but I'm not so convinced either that he would make a difference.

Back to the emotional thingy. I wonder when would I really get rid of this Merdeka spell huh? Maybe next year I should find something to do on Merdeka's eve and Merdeka day that would totally erase the memories of the past Merdeka day, provided I can control the emotional feelings next year.

I had so many things to say, but yet I am blank now. Forget it....
