Soccer-Bayern recover to beat AC Milan 2-1 in Madrid
Filippo Inzaghi scored the opener on 10 minutes but free kicks from Michael Tarnat and Mehmet Scholl lifted Bayern to victory, earning them a place against hosts Real in Sunday's final.
The Italians will go on to play Liverpool, beaten 2-0 by Real Madrid on Friday, in a consolation match before the final.
AC Milan's star signing Rivaldo, snapped up from Real's Spanish rivals Barcelona, was at the Bernabeu to watch as Milan made a lively start.
A Dario Simic run and cross from the right set up Inzaghi for the first goal, the Italian international hooking the ball past Oliver Kahn from the edge of the box.
Bayern were level on 22 minutes as Tarnat was teed up on the edge of the box to lash the ball low into the far corner.
Serginho was just over the bar from Andriy Shevchenko's lay-off on 30 minutes as AC Milan came back and, after the break, Clarence Seedorf struck the frame of the goal with a powerful shot from outside the box.
AC Milan were in charge thanks to some slick passing in midfield and Seedorf forced a great save from Kahn just past the hour mark with another menacing run and shot.
Bayern kept their cool, however, and the German side clinched victory with Scholl's dipping free kick on 74 minutes.

error five-o-three STILL happens at home. oh well. at least that's the blogging distraction gone from my self-imposed studying regime. my parents have consented to several Good Things if i ace my prelims and Os... they involve things like kahn's jersey and i guess that's motivation enough. now i just can't get that blonde-haired blue-eyed kahnster outta my head.
wonderful. oh yeah i've completed Chapter One since the last time i posted. now i'm staring at a blank screen and wondering how exactly to go about Chapter Two. ah wellus. the whole process repeats itself. we have darned chem prac after this. chem prac is most undoubtedbly the Bane Of My Life. but actually it gets pretty quirky sometimes. flame tests were enjoyable, but i can't exactly say the same about spilling dilute hydrochloric acid on a sore finger. sometimes i doubt the "dilute" in dilute hcl.
i used to say i didn't do it but i did it
telling everybody that i wasn't with it
though it brings tears to my eyes i can feel it
and i know inside that i'm gonna be alright

yo. trying to complete Chapter One, without very much success. it's kind of weird trying to write about somalia when the only stuff i've seen of it is "black hawk down". anyway i'm not even focusing on mogadishu here. oh wellus. i made a list of Things To Do when i got home from school today. so far i've finished about three things out of six. hopefully i won't slack and complete the rest. i've got absolutely zero inspiration. this is pretty bad.
played a bit of soccer after school today. tried out the huiqing-fengyi partnership, which wasn't bad since there didn't seem to be anything (or anyone) resembling a goalkeeper round. wonderful day for hat-tricks. it was pretty cool though. we even managed a beautiful cross. soccer's damn nice to play. okay let me get back to my essay.
to my extreme disgust, i've realised that error 503 happens at home.
Sunday, July 14, 2002
ooh my blog works! error 503 popped up yesterday i was so freakin worried. oh well. back to Chapter One on Female Genital Mutilation.
what did i ever say about oliver kahn at coro? huh?? i don't know what you're talking about, grace or sze. whatever. oliver kahn's at my house. he had a rather animated conversation with xinying via msn just the other day. i should know.
minority report was a really good movie. thought-provoking... kind of like a psychological thriller. i say cruise was great in that flick. the cruise-spielberg partnership is whack!
have you ever dreamed of flying high
looking down from heaven with God's eyes
you know
we could use some intervention
children needing your protection
it's not enough to sing this song
lift the cup and pass it on

oh well. yeah i've realised i post rather sporadically on this blog. listening to /hero/ by chad kroeger now. i think it's a really great song. somehow or other, it reminds me of ollie kahn. today was a strange sort of day. the computers in the library don't half work. it took me all of twenty minutes to find a decent desktop, one that actually possessed an internet connection, working keyboard and mouse. one particular computer actually fizzled. yeah it fizzled. jits was like turn it off, you! hurry! and i went what the #$%^& i might just get my brains fried under the table well at least i managed to turn it off with a quick toe poke.
grace's oliver and i'm kahn. sounds promising, doesn't it? well hopefully it works out, somehow or other. yeah anyway just like about the whole basketball gang's gone with the worldcup craze. now instead of the basketball court, our haunt during recess is the spot between the sci/tech block and bball court. two lovely palm trees there provide excellent goalposts. my only gripe are the multitude of stone blocks on the grass patch there, presumably Paths for Fire Engines To Take In The Event of An Emergency. well we've grown somewhat attached to these stony-faced locals, and even christened them lovingly. well i can't exactly remember their exact names. just that rivaldo happens to be this obtrusive L-shaped stone patch in front of the goal, and roberto carlos a little round dome. kinda suits him, i must say. they're pretty effective.

that, as usual, was silly xinying. ah well. OLIVER KAHN so rocks!! i am so in awe. his full-length diving save was spectacular... maaaaan. it's great that germany has defeated s.korea... kahn said in an interview about two weeks back that the german team's ultimate goal was to get into the finals of the world cup. maaaaan they've done it! wonderful birthday present for kahn, who turned 33 on 15th june. oh and by the way, people born in June rock. just proving my point. ah well.
oh and if anyone still HASN'T BOUGHT ME A PRESENT (shame on you) you can always get me kahn's jersey. NUMBER ONE! yeah man. okay i'm gonna play bball with the rest now.

just a holler to all of you out there. haven't touched this blog in eons, due to the muddled up internet connection at home. oh well. just to let you know, i'm getting broadband in a coupla days. cool. my loyalty has shifted to pacific internet. perhaps y'all could expect a more developed blog next month after i get my account. heheh. yeah well due to the unattainability of certain birthday wishes #coughh# i wouldn't half mind an official FIFA World Cup 2002 adidas football. y'know... the lovely red-gold-white one. the camera sometimes zooms in on the ball on the field just before someone takes a corner kick at times. yeah that one. heheheh. football and basketball rock.
seriously, i think south korea has gotten too far in the world cup. maaaaan and it's lotsa due to like unfair refereeing and all. whaddaya mean, calling spain offside when they clearly weren't? darn. oh well. i throw my support behind the germans now, even though they beat the team from USA which was one of my faves. heheheh. their goalie Oliver Kahn rocks. i've christened him the Rock Of Ages. he brings a new meaning to unshakeable. that means he must be hard.... um. ;)

heheh. hey. i'm back to post again, at nina's house this time. oh yes. another birthday wish could be a LA Lakers jersey, no. 8 please. the shorts too, if you wouldn't mind. kobe bryant rocks! i'm in awe. that's all i can say. xy and nina are downstairs watching the fourth quarter of the match (finals game 1, videotaped), just thought i'd pop upstairs for a bit to update this blog. ah well.
basketball so rocks. hahahaaa. in spite of the numerous sprains and bumps that come as a result of playing. anyway yes. both xy and nina are staring wide-eyed at the screen.

good morning everyone. i'm sitting in front of the computer in the sticky sweaty hot classroom of four-thirteen at roughly seven twenty-five in the morning. rachel's at the benches outside... i guess no one else is around yet. anyway. today is the official launch of my blog! heheh. it being mark wahlberg's birthday and all. HAPPY 31st BIRTHDAY, MARK! you're still as hot as ever hahaha ;). -oh those ABS- wellus. anyway i just realised that darren hayes is going to be on the "all day thursday" interview by perfect 10 tomorrow. now i'm just wondering how we're gonna catch it, because i don't quite trust recording technology anymore. i guess you know why.
it's quite funny the way i heard that d.hayes was gonna be on... i was like listening to perfect 10 last night at about the say it with music/ late night show time, and i was kinda continually hoping that one of his songs would suddenly air. but i kind of forgot about it after a while. then all of a sudden this Very Familiar oh-so-angelic voice came on... "Well, it'll take quite a long time for people to know who Darren Hayes is..." with insatiable playing softly in the background. When i heard that i kind of jolted up immediately at once, leaped to the radio and tweaked the volume control two-fold, and soaked myself in the blissful lilt of his voice. then daniel ong's voice came on and said blah blah something or other about hayes being on all day thursday this week. aaahhh. lovely. oops i meant darren, not daniel. ONG.
ooh darren you rock my world hahaha. okay i shall try to make another post later. gosh. gotta go to the audi for mdm mak's reproval #i bet# soon. report books today! what luck.
ah wellus. i'm still pretty new to the whole idea of blogging, as i'm not exactly able to access the net from home or anyth, so i can't like experiment or something for the time being. well. lately, many people have been asking me what i'd like for my birthday. how extremely strange. i don't normally get such nice requests. yeah since you all seem rather obliging and magnanimous, i guess i'd better utilise this opportunity before it passes me by.
Things / Non-Things Fengyi Would Like Very Much For Her Birthday.
1. darren hayes
2. jordan knight
3. mark wahlberg.
4. #ahem ahem#.
the abovementioned are all the non-things. i'm a long-term sort of person, NO one-night stands please.
5. urban xchange's debut release "how did we get here"
6. a hi-fi set
7. the very nice sleeveless shirt from 77th street.
8. a nice radio walkman thingamajig.
9. darren hayes' shoes! those he wore in the album cover/ shooting of insatiable
10. a leather converse basketball
am i being too demanding? oh wow. well that's all for now... as soon as i remember more stuff i'll put it on. how'd you like that. ;)
played basketball whole lots today. before school, during recess, and after school. we're complete bball fanatics.
our team kicks some ass ;) c'mon folks we better thrash weilin's team tomorrow! we rock! hahahaaa just providing a boost to morale. ah wellus. healthy obsession though. heh heh. world cup fever now. it's strange... there's what i call the coffeeshop scenario. The coffeeshop is the gathering place of ah peks, ah bengs, and the occasional white-collar worker. Eyes riveted towards the small television screen, with glazed looks in their eyes. And every so often, a collective sigh or yell will be emitted, coupled with hand-pumping actions. Really interesting. i don't particularly dig soccer... but i guess the world cup's pretty cool to watch. oh well. i'd rather NBA... thing is, i seem to be unable to tune in to any of the matches. sad. oh well.
okay i guess i'll be leaving nina's house soon with xy to head to parry pri school and shoot some hoops #what did i ever tell you about being obsessed#
mood : pooped. pretty tired.
song on my brain : "pop" by *N SYNC #hey they're not just any boyband! they're real musicians!#
