there is more to life than football

tonite south africa 2010 world cup will kick off. every amat, ah chong, mutu and samy (this phrase is a local representation of tom, dick and harry - but samy is also included here to represent samy vellu's indians which are 'different' from the normal indians in malaysia) - on the streets are talking about it.

for the next 30 days or so the whole world (except maybe the us where they are in the world of their own when it comes to sports - even when their national soccer team also qualified) will be gripped with footy fever.

however for some ... they much prefer to be 'gila basikal' rather than 'gila bola'!

mookie with her spankin' brand new machine ...

vroomm, vroomm...all set and ready to ... (n then we heard the mum hollering from inside the house, "jangan pegi jauh2...depan rumah je!")

mommy...penat la, teh o ais satu!

all changed n ready for religious class but still managed to curi2 few minutes to ride the bike. this 'fever' has been going on for the last couple of weeks and looks to continue way after the world cup is over. n while everybody will be cheering their rooneys, ronaldos, messis, etc. spare also your thoughts and prayers for our brothers n sisters in gaza n palestine. may Allah SWT gives them strength to carry on...
