Futsal

ahh... it's me again sitting in front of laptop during lunch time (:-p) writing another 'blog' of my life... This time I'm going to write about my fondness towards Futsal I recently discovered...
All my life I somehow have no interest on football... to me, 24 people running up and down in a big field kicking one small ball around and trying to shot it into iron 'frames' doesn't really make sense to me... hahaha... I'm waiting for someone to throw eggs at me now ;-)...
Things take a turn recently as friends organise futsal sessions... well, to be honest, i'm kinda desperate to do some exercise as i feel that i'm weakening for not putting my body / muscles into use for quite sometime... so i joined in the group hoping just to get some exercise and not score my own goal... hahaha...
My first futsal session turned out to be much better than I expected... at first i didn't know what was going on on the court... friend told me just kick the ball whenever the ball comes to me... well, that's easy... hmmm... not really to be honest... it's easier to say than done... but the more i ran around like a mad man and kicking the ball, the more i feel 'connected' to this sport... i actually enjoyed the moment... i like the feeling of whole body workout, kick the balls with clear mind, manage your play, mind telling the legs what to do, team work and the adrenaline rush... i guess it's the process of learning new things that spice up my life again... and also new things that i learn about myself... i realised that I can actually use my legs to kick... hahaha...
At the same time i also learned the game more... striker, defender, midfield, goalkeeper... it has its own system that manage the whole game... just like everything else in the world... somehow as I age I now do understand the phrase 'The World Is Round' better and better...
Now I like the game more... next world cup I guess I know where I will be... in front of TV or at mamak store or pup with friends cheering ... haha...
There is no definite things in the world... things change from time to time... we as the living creature on the surface of the earth flexibility is the way to survive, to live, to enjoy this once in a lifetime journey... there is no U turn in our life... always keep an open mind to accept what comes along and reject whatever that would harm / hurt / not beneficial to us... and also, do always have the pure / naive / childish side of us (update when I find the correct vocab) as this makes us want to learn more, want to know more, exquisitive, to be inspired and hopefully we will inspire others one day... dont be bogged down by the social perception of what adults should / should not do... just listen to our heart and do what we think we really want... life journey is like a learning curve... never stop learning... the day we stop learning is the day we are actually 'dead'...
Can go on and on, but not sure i'm clear enough in expressing my thoughts... still learning... hahaha... last but not least, enjoy our life out there... be safe... and will talk about my thoughts of what we always say: 'enjoy life'... and dont fall asleep... hahaha...

2009

It's 09 March, 2009... and not really proud of myself, but this is actually the first post I write this year... goodness me... looking back 2009, I wonder how on earth the time flies by so quickly... a blink of an eye and we're already in March... sounds very scary...
so far this year has been challenging and i have had opportunities to learn new things to make my life more colourful and fulfilling... which is nice of course... otherwise life would become too routine that I would soon lose interest in what I do...
i went countdown in Genting Highland with colleague and his brother... didn't have much to do on that day... some friends invited to go The Curve and few other hot spots but finally I decided Genting is the place this year... didn't want to go to overly crowded places in KL... it turned out to be an excellent outing... the journey to Genting is quite interesting too, as my colleague finally convinced that his Waja has the 'power' to reach the highland resort... hahaha... the cold air was so refreshing in Genting Highland we soon forgot the tiredness after a long stressful day at work... we were pumped and excited...
Genting was already crowded... we walked around... breathed in fresh air with lots of negative ions... walking in Genting and chill wind blowing, my mind was cleared as if the wind had blown away the trouble in life... hahaha... we need this more often... i mean the fresh air and away day from our normal stressful life... need to bleed off pressure... life is too short... need to enjoy every moments of it...
fireworks was nice... i took photo my colleague took video... anyone interested let me know ;-)... price is cheap cheap only... hahahaha... just joking...
after fireworks we proceed to the arcade... didn't plan to play but since had nothing else to do... Genting can be as boring as hell if you dont go to the Casino... hahaha... we changed RM50 token thinking that if can't finished it we would get our change back... really had fun there... felt like college time de javu... but the balance of about RM20 was stolen from us... apparently they dont refund the balance... only got back the deposit of RM5... that's very very bad...
we sat on the steps in front of First World Hotel, sipping our coffee at 3 in the morning, watching cars 'jamming' their way back to 'concrete jungle'... do we actually need all these stress to survive??? I ponder...
On the way to our car we saw KL night scene... it was beautiful... with my ordinary camera i took a photo with shuttle opened for 48 seconds... to my surprise how good this old camera could be... taken an excellent photo of KL night scene... splendid everybody else said... not only me... hahaha... so proud of my camera... and of course, my skill... hehehe...
recapturing what had happened is not an easy task... especially after long stressful and eventful 3 months... but it's always good to remember the good times...
more to come next :-D...
