great being an evertonian right now

it has been a week full of events especially on the forefront of any news, we're going for an election this coming 8th march! even though i am a registered voter, i dont think i am going to go back to taiping and vote cause i dont think it will make any difference...i will be changing my address for the 13th general election, thats for sure..

as for yesterday, i went to bed early just to make sure that i can wake up 3am in the morning to watch the uefa cup match between SK Brann and Everton.. and for this 1st leg match, i am really pleased with the way we played even though some of our players are away due to injuries, but we managed to win 2-0 away from home...and the second leg will be next week at goodison...hope we can progress to the last 16...

i kinda like the jersey for yesterday's match though since chang beer's logo is being removed due to the Norway-ian rule as to ban any alhocol advertising (DAMN! Why cant we make such rule? - Islam Had*hari anyone?) - mana la nak beli jersey nih..

also, i read this news in the internet that the sepang f1 race next year might be scheduled during the night, to follow suit the singaXXXXan night race..i think this effort might save the sepang race from being axed out of the f1 calender! great effort!
