Man Utd Asia Pass

This could very well be the main highlight for the whole year besides backpacking to Cambodia. Not only was i able to watch Man United live but was able to watch them in action twice !

This only happened because of the recent bombing in Jakarta at the hotel that the team would be staying during their stay there. Though Australia offered 1 million pounds for them to play down under but Sir Alex declined and ended up playing in Malaysia twice.

The crowd for the 2nd game wasn’t as much as the first game but nevertheless i still had fun watching with a bunch of crazy people.

img 4604 Chelsea meets Malaysia

I was alerted by my parents that i was suppose to be the driver for my brother when he comes down to KL to catch Chelsea vs Malaysia but after realizing that the match was gonna be held at Shah Alam Stadium, i tagged along …. and at the same time burning a hole in my wallet.

I didn’t join him at the same stands because the ticket i got was slightly cheaper.

So instead, i joined Jin Boone, his gf and his friend

Project-T: Ho Liao Team Strikes Back

By satkuru  //  football, fun  //  37 Comments

UPDATED: A lot of people requested for the full video, so it’s finally added at the bottom :)

Finally EURO2008 is here !!! And i am pretty sure there’s gonna be lots of people going to work or even class with panda eyes or maybe skip it all together if they have the chance. During these games, people usually gather around at mamak stalls but i on the other hand rather watch it at home with a bunch of friends and Mister Potato in my hands. This definitely doesn’t sound like me at all but trust me that’s what i do most of the time. With the hike of petrol price, watching at home definitely is the better choice and i won’t be surprised if price of mamak food does increase anytime soon.

For most of the time, i would have 2-3packets of Mister Potato for a match. Hahaha i do eat like a wood chipper when it comes to potato chips >_<” and it’s all the better since Mister Potato is currently having a competition for those who collects the most seals or pouches. These seals and pouches are then exchanged into football points where you can redeem prizes later on. And the prizes are eye poppingly crazy !

For the 30 top football points collector, they will receive a Total Football Tour at Manchester, England ! This includes the Stadium and Museum and it’s worth RM 15000 ! @_@ So stim can.

2 Project T: Ho Liao Team Strikes Back

Besides that, there are also monthly prizes to be given away which are autographed football jerseys. So this doesn’t just limit to Manchester United fans, you can also win a Liverpool or even a Chelsea jersey :P

Recently i have been chosen to be part of Project-T and my group, Group Ho Liao had to come out with an idea on how we could get a lot of pouches and seals to stand a chance to win the trip to Manchester. The ideas that we brain stormed are then assigned to each individual and come out with a short video. Knowing that we are scattered around Malaysia and will not be able to appear all together in a video, we decided to have a packet of Mister Potato as our link.

It starts off with our Ho Liao boss, KY giving ‘blessings’ for us to start the video, hahaha. Okok the real deal was Muzaffar *another Ho Liao boss* wanted to know how could he win the trip to Old Trafford and KY will explain to him with the help of his 5 Ho Liao members *coughs* Thomas comes in with his brilliant idea which was to go on a Mister Potato diet. By doing so, he would be able to consume more Mister Potato and collect more pouches or seals. The funny thing is, Thomas is already sooooooo THIN ! Hahahah. Now that, i can’t wait to see :P Kevin on the other hand was gonna do it the old fashion way, which is to steal Mister Potato. Not one but a few Mister Potato. I mean when you steal also must think BIG and going for one would be ‘potong stim’. While trying to escape, he stumbles upon someone whom he knows and that would be the climax :P Foong’s idea was her son demanding Mister Potato, hahaha. Wouldn’t that be easy for her ? LOL just wait for her son to finish one pouch by one pouch and in no time she’ll be flying off to Manchester. Debra …. where do i even begin with her idea hahahaha. Just like a kissing booth whereby you pay to be kissed, Debra will be going on dates in exchange for Mister Potato, lololololol. Obviously one pouch isn’t gonna do the trick, so it depends on how much the date is willing to offer :P … And finally me …. >_<”

My idea was to photocopy the pouches and seals @_@

Yes yes PHOTOCOPY @_@ *KY i am so gonna strangle you for this idea* I am gonna photocopy the pouches and seals in hope of getting myself to Manchester. LOL

The description above is in NO particular order :) So do check out the video for the overall view and this is my part for the video. Kinda potong stim cause everyone did super long duration and mine was up within 20 seconds -_-” Oh and mine is in Tamil, hehehe.

Please bear with us as this was done in a super duper short time and it was during weekdays -_-! Hohoho

“Ganassss, girls got kacau you or not ? LOL”

“No ler, some girls scared ler. Not easy to walk around”

Showing off his equipment

Photography is definitely an expensive hobby, whether its a piece of plastic to diffuse the flash or a bag to house the camera and accessories, everything is bloody expensive. But nothing beats taking a good photo and Juon Wor here went to the extend of getting a 70-200 f2.8 lens. For those who have got no idea what that means, it’s an expensive lens that is used for zooming -_-” I mean a REALLY expensive lens and it cost more than my camera itself >_<”

I followed Juon Wor to get his lens and since he had a couple of hours to spare, we decided to walk along Penang Road to snap a few pictures.

img 0086 The longer the better

I was already having a hard time carrying around my bag and my camera round my neck and God knows how Juon Wor was managing his crazy long lens with his camera. I tried it on my camera and it’s so heavy that i would probably need to lift weights if i ever decided to buy, which isn’t gonna happen :P

img 0079 The longer the better

The weather too wasn’t kind enough as it was scotching hot.

Speaking of cameras, a few weeks back i met up with HungWei, Aaron and Hugo at Midvalley. Aaron finally got his flash and so he officiated it while we had dinner at some Vietnamese Restaurnt.

Aaron showing off his spanking new flash :P

img 9707 The longer the better

The sight of flashes bouncing off the ceiling off and on had attracted a few people to have a glance on what’s happening on our table. Hung Wei in particular had fans throughout the dinner :P

img 9737 The longer the better

Later on we adjourned to Kim Gary. Before Kim Gary, we followed Hugo to get his money changed for his backpacking trip.

img 9744 The longer the better

Then out of the blue, Dolphin appeared out of thin air …

img 9765 The longer the better

She too got excited with the flash and decided to play with it … which caused HungWei to …

… keep an eye on Angeline. See his ever ready hand. Just waiting to pounce if anything goes wrong. Hahahaha.

Now i shall continue my hibernation. Can’t wait to watch Italy VS Holland later at night :P

Project-T initiated

2511917616 f24b253d14 o Project T initiated

Have any of you heard about this top secret project kicked off by Nuffnang lately? For the benefit of those who have no clue, let me brief you on what is it about, to give you a clearer picture.

This top secret project, codenamed Project Trafford has been initiated to gather 40 bloggers on the hope of conceiving unique or rather mind-blowing ideas to pitch in for a certain product. The word Trafford has probably struck a chord in some of you already but if that doesn’t sound familiar, it actually refers to Old Trafford which is the homeground for the Red Devils, aka Manchester United. Let’s say the grand prize winner has something to do with Old Trafford and for those who aren’t fans of Man United, there’s still prizes which awaits you :D

The prizes are made possible by Mister Potato in their current campaign and all you have to do is collect as many Mister Potato seal and pouch. By doing so you will actually collect football points and you can redeem attractive prizes.

If you are still vague about this whole Project Trafford thingy, fear not … more will be revealed in the upcoming entry but in the mean time, let me introduce you to my fellow team mates.

Everyone knows that two heads are better than one but what happens if you have 7 heads ? :P I have been placed in group H which consist of 2 group leaders and 5 members.

The leaders are:
