Last night was the figure skating champions gala!!!! Whereby all the best skaters skate!!! I have no time to say much, but Evgeni Plushenko really skated very well!!! He even add a triple axel, triple toe, triple loop at the end of the show, which is sth that is really hard to do...and shake his butt to the music....so funny!!! Love him like nuts!!! He's great!!! Really good...

Anyway I found this picture of his at the gala...so funny. He is pretending that he is playing the violin...ch 5 never showed this scene...they ended the broadcast like right after the show and never really linger for it...but this picture really cracked me up....

I can't resist adding another picture of him...and this picture is so cute...he blowing kisses to the audience...

Cheerios.

I am going insane!!! Can't stop myself from talking and watching evgeni plushenko's winning figure-skating performance!!! And I kept clicking on the link at my previous entry to watch the magic...

So good so good so good...he's too amazing for words!!!! And somehow his skating makes me think about dancing...those moves are so slick that it looks like dancing. And it can be counted as dancing since figure-skating is all about marrying music and technical skills of skating to produce a performance...all about moves and emotions and intensity and fluidty. I told you I can't stop talking about skating. And yes, I have the urge to re-take up skating again....

And all these makes me feel like dancing again....which is a confusing topic for me.

Evgeni Plushenko!!! He will add on the my long list of my fave sports stars!!!!

And the funny thing is I can spell his name but can't say his first name...and I really have no idea what is the right for it.

And I converted my friend Adeline in watching figure-skating. She caught the winning performance of Plushenko on Tv mobile and she thought it was so zai and amazing. And she wants me to update her on more skating events in the future esp in this Olympics. There is something you need to know about Adeline. She is a very critical person. She doesn't like something so easily..she doesn't convert into something so easily....and she won't say something is good unless she really thinks so. And she has very high expectations. (I am so going to get beaten up by her....) So if she thinks Plushenko is good by just watching one of his performances you know what it means. It means Plushenko is really good.

So click on the link on my previous entry if you haven't watch it!!!!

He is my new idol....

Please click on this link and click on the "play video" link to watch Evgeni Plushenko....this performance shown here is similar to the one that was at the winter games 2006...but of course at the games it was better but I cant find it.....he skated to the same tune too...which is "The Godfather" tune. Minus the fall you see in this video plus sharper movements with more artistic feel you get the wining performance....

Hope you guys can enjoy it!!!!

I am so guilty. I couldn't finish watching ice-skating (the techincal term olympics used for that event is figure skating....) last night....!!!!I plonked on my couch and fell asleep in the middle of the programme!!! Last night was the Men's free skate....which is longer than the short programme...but luckily I recorded it...

And my fave skater won!!!! Evgeni Plushenko won!!! Ok, I admit. I never watch ice-skating until the start of this winter games...but after I watched Plushenko at the short program, I knew I must watch him at the free skate!!!

For most of you out there, I know u must be confused at what I am talking about. Ok, I dont really understand the rules and how the scores are computed at figure skating. But I know that to determine the winners, you have to add the short programme and the free skate components together. These skaters will do the short program on 1 day, which last like 2 mins to me, and free skate on another day that is about 4 mins. On the short program day, 24 out of 30 top skaters will qualify for the free skate. Any falls will result in 1 mark deduction. There are a few elements in the program that you have to compete...and it looks like most skaters have the most trouble at triple axel, which the skater has to jump into the air and do 3 spins before landing...and most people landed badly....There are other elements like bar spins, triple spins and others.

Seriously, there are quite a lot of these "tricks" and I cant differentiate one from the other. But for someone as dummy as me, you still can differentiate the better skaters from the worst....and Plushenko was the obvious best. He had a gapping 27 pts between the him and the 2nd-placed skater!!! The rest were like 4- 5 pts behind each other...he was leading in short program, and he was leading in free skate...how good is that??

And the best is, he looks kinda like Ian Thorpe!!! The skinner, lankier, graceful-er, less tan-ner, blond version of Ian thorpe...

Oh well, I am so in love with sports...

Jeffery Butle won the bronze, and Stéphane Lambiel won the silver.

Just go to the winter olympics 2006 website if you want to know more about it....

I love figure skating!!!!

Cheerios....

Oh yeah...I finally have the time to type something for my blog...

Today went to get my palm read...not an intentional move but happened to see this booth at the central forum so go get it read....interested to know what it was like. $10 for the 2 topics u want to know about....$20 for 6 topics. Chose the $10 cause I got no money...and here is my reading...

According:
1. I am a very haolian (proud) person. (This was the palmist's 1st sentence....)I have a huge sense of pride.
2. I am a leader. I can never be a follower.
3. I will be a very good career woman cause I want to be a leader.
4. I am very hard to get.
5. I can only marry guys that are better in status than me.
6. I am a romantic.
7. I am too blunt in my words...and apparently it causes a few people to misunderstand me.
8. I am a sexy girl (???)
9. I loves being on stage, be it singing, making a speech or dancing.
10. I am a spendthift, and thus my future husband must be rich.

These are a few things he said...and already some are quite accurate right? Blunt definitely...cos I know I had offended some people because of my bluntness. Being on stage I dont know...but dancing yeah definitely. But sexy??? Hmm..which guys think I am sexy? I am decked in jeans and t-shirts most of the time in school!!! The sexy title belongs to Linda....and the worst...HAOLIAN...

The palmist was holding my writing hand(which is my right), and then after looking at it for some time, the first thing he said was "you are a very haolian person."....Can you imagine??!!! 3 of my friends were there, and all 3 of them laughed like nuts!!! But I laughed too...cos it was so funny and hilarous and somewhat ridiculous too. Haolian?? Maybe I am. I kinda dont like to lose all the time, but who likes to lose? Anyway, no one will know whether I am very haolian or not cause I think I should know it but I don't...

This palmistry was fun....but have to take it a pinch of salt. Oh my goodness...I know a few things that I really want to know, like whether I will end up as an old maid or not, when I will get married...hahaha...

And I know more about myself.

And yeah, the palmist said my palm reading is similar to Olinda Cho's. Dont know whether true or not.

Anyway, have to blog abt certain things....

Ahs alumni dinner....met up with a few friends which was sooooo nice...to see a few people I havent been seeing about for some time...esp seniors...There are quite a few of them...those that graduate before I entered sec1...hahaha...so fun. We kept eating only...esp chocolate fondue.....hahaha...

I will send the yahoo photos invitation to you....dont save from my blog cos I had to trim them to fit my blog...all the dimensions are crooked...so just leave your name here ok??And thanks for all that fun!!!!

It's tomorrow!!! Yeks!!!

I missed out so many things...I think.

I been through life for almost 20 years, and yet I think I have definitely missed out certain signals that came my way....looking back, I most certainly did. And for those signals that I did not miss, I chose to avoid fearing that I was not old enough to handle it. Not mature enough to handle it. And I was afraid that I really will end up not being able to handle it.

Now I think I may be punished for missing out what I had been missing and what I had avoided. I had been giving wrong signals to a lot of people...and now I am without those signals. Definitely I had been looking at and around my life and the people around me more closely than before, and yet I no longer can find those signals I chose to avoid a few years ago. Not even the slightest clue. Fate have been cruel to me. Whenever I feel that there is a slightest hint, I was delighted. Then it's gone and taken away from me. I am being punished....or is it a test of my patience?

My perfect dream is gone.

I dreamt that by this time of my life, I would no longer be searching. Apparently not so.

And I am not talking about love...I am just talking about my life in general. It's easy to make that mistake after reading what I had said. But I do not say love is not part of my life.

I know I am confusing everyone for what I am saying, and no one has a clue. I guess I am turning a little literature/poetic- like. Talking in riddles. But anyway, it was only for me to let it out and not meant for anyone to understand. *no offense.

Anyway, grammys this wk. Excited about it. Along with scrubs later. Normally wun be excited but thinking that there is Michael J. Fox guest-starring later....that's a different matter.

Guess I am not missing those obvious signs. But I don't yearn for them.

I am turning a little eccentric...moody...strange...but mostly eccentric.
