slack sunday...

woke up this afternoon feeling the effects of not warming up properly during saturday's game. my calfs were in painful state and had it the whole day. ouch! not a good feeling. woke up late (because i was watching click the night before but didn't finish it. fell asleep after awhile) and by the time i got to church, it was 2.15pm. haha, i know i know... it's was like my first time... anyway, sermon was by pastor lisa yu from bukit panjang methodist church. (it was CAC sunday.) she spoke on 'the marks of a member'. new insights, new understanding.

after service, for the first time in 1 month, i actually went to kopitiam for lunch. went for the favorite teriyaki fried rice. yum yum. it was delicious and shiok! spent an hour there and went back after that to prepare to go for the basketball game.

went to the phillips singapore cup at the indoor stadium with ian, joel, queenie, nicole to watch spain and argentina play each other. (thank you taffy for the free tickets!) it was a sight. every where we turn, there was familiar faces and the conclusion is that the basketball community is just so small in singapore. haha... once you have played in 'B' division, you would have know most of the people in the basketball circle. haha... spain was the big winner of the night. it was nice to see NBA stars in action. Pau Gusol was one of them and he was exciting to watch. nice game, nice atmosphere. the only down point, the emcee stinks! not even close to being normal. just disappointing to heard him.

the arena...

many people...

there was a few moments of exciting movements of the ball and power play but overall, it was a normal game or simply put it, didn't live up to its expectation.

my papa God sponsored ticket for the game...

something to mention about the tickets. heard about the game from ian yesterday but figure out that i won't go cause it cost $15 just to watch the match. went home and prayed that God will provide tickets for me or He will send someone to bless me with the money to watch it. turn on my lappy and got online and taffy msg me and asked if i wanted tickets for the match. turn out that he actually got some spare tickets cause one of his friends teaches in catholic high and have some complimentary tickets because some of the teams went there to run a basketball clinic. thank you papa God! i was just so amazed by papa God that He answered my prayer almost immediately. He really wanted me to enjoy myself and do the things that i like and He provided for it all! not a single cent spent on this. just like a dad would do the necessary things needed to make sure his child is happy, papa God did the exact thing. i felt so loved by papa God. He always like to spring surprises on me. not only did He provide for me, He also provided for friends to come along. so nice... thanks papa God...

got home around 9.30pm and went downstair to the coffee shop to watch the charity shield match between liverpool (my favorite team!) and chelsea, to find out they are not showing it at all! oh my gosh! just totally stupid. no match, so came home to relax and decided to write this entry. just as i am writing this entry, the score is tied at 1-1. hopefully by the time you read this entry, liverpool would have emerged as the winner.
