Wow , Miss Fikar is great!

Miss Fikar was talking about evolution this morning during Bio class, she asked us, what will eventually occur when human population is too big? "Tsunami?",Michelle replied. "No, no. If it were to be tsunami to control our population, I would have died! Didn't I tell you all that i survived tsunami?"

Yea the story starts here, Miss Fikar went to Thailand for travelling. She was at Phuket or around 2 weeks. The island was hit quite heavily by Tsunami during year 2004. On that day's morning, Miss Fikar wanted to inquire about snorkeling and his husband Gary was lazy and so he stayed at home. The information counter was a hut and she started asking about snorkeling. Some moment later, she heard people shouted "Water!Water is coming!" She thought that it was good as big wave was fun so she didn't even want to bother about it. After that she walked out of the hut. She could feel water rushing to her legs and suddenly the wave hit on her whole body(large wave). She was brought by the water wave. There was a mixture of some hard objects in the water(trees I guess). She tried to struggle to keep her head up to the air so she wouldn't be drowned. She remembered that she was grabbing on a board, that made her float. She could see trees were struck down by water.

"If the tree would have drop on to me, I think I won't be alive." Her instinct brought her to higher places. She knew that water will be flowing downwards so it is common sense to climb to a higher place. Until sometime she was brought to somewhere muddy as she was half buried. She could see people around her and she was wondering were they alive or not. She was not clear whether the tsunami was over yet as she was too exhausted. Later, a helicopter came and picked people up including her to a higher place. She was then laid on the floor. Everybody was checked thoroughly. Blood was all over her body and medical staffs pour antibiotic on her. She was finally transfered to Bangkok hospital where she underwent a leg surgery.

"Miss, when you got to know that your husband was still alive?", people asked. She at first thought that she would not see Mr Gary anymore. When the incident happened Gary was in their rented bungalow and there was a big glass on the wall. She thought that the glass must had broken down. Most importantly the bungalow was situated near the sea, such a "strategic" place! In the Bangkok hospital, Miss Fikar was able to make a call back to Canada and so she asked around her friends about everyone's situation. By that she got to know Mr Gary was still alive! The bungalow was not totally hit down by the tsunami as it was strong enough to stand there. Gary stepped up to the second floor because the ground floor was flooded.

At last Miss Fikar and her husband were finally sent back to Canada. Walao...damn lucky!

Review: ManU vs Barca

This is quite a tense match as its like a final. You can see two big teams fighting like hell!!! That normal of course everyone wants to get a chance to get into the final. You wont be seeing this kinda match always, that's why i even chose to sacrifice for not sleeping even though i have to wake up 5 something on the morning!

Most Lame Player on field: (Van der Sar)
Lets get into the match. Van der Sar... is an old man... he does not have the pace anymore! Obviously he was chased by Eto' till he even did some stupid clearance!!! What the heck! It is like this, when MU def pass the ball back to the keeper, Eto' then is like a monkey hunting for food (the ball at the legs of Van der Sar) ! Then, VandeSar was damn scared hence he kicked the bloody ball far away, not in front, but to the outside of the field!! I had seen this many times, what is he doing ??? I could see that he was very very fearful of loosing the ball.

Hold the Most Possession on field: (Barcelona)
Needless to say, it's Barca who have the ball more on their player's feet. They like to dribble and tend to keep the ball. Everyone enjoys watching such football because it's damn exciting! But there are pros and cons on this method of possession kind of football. Once those players are not putting high concentration on that game (low form), the manager will be crying! Just look at Barca. Ya, I admit that they can control their ball nicely and they play tricks! Although they dribbles the ball up and down non-stop, they can't score any goals!!! That is the problem! Yeah you see exciting dribbles and crossing people 1 by 1, but they don't even have a chance to hit the goal into the net. Hey Messi! What the hell you dribble like a god man! If he thinks of wanna dribble pass a person, sure he can do it. His speed is enormous! He is like a rocket! So what? He can walk pass 2 or 4 persons, you think ManU's side will let him have that much space to move? If yes then you are wrong! ManU's deffence is like a metal wall! You can dribble as much as you like! But 1 thing, you can't walk pass the whole team! I can say that Barca's attack depends so much on Messi. Eto!! What the hell are you doing up front??? Where is your form??

Overall:
Barca's attack is not as sharp as the olden days(2 or 3 years back). The time taken for them to pass the ball from the defensive position to the upper part is too slow. Their midfielders(Xavi, Deco) do not have the quick pace like ManU's people(ParkJS, Nani is enough)!!! Last time Barca has Ronaldinho, Messi and Eto' all in top form, now you can't expect that much. They depended too much on Messi to break their defensive wall! No way! He won't succeed! Later on Henry had been substituted into the game. I don't see he posted too much a threat to ManU. Yea he did a header, straight on the keeper. As you can expect...the chance of Barca's midfield to pass the ball to Henry is to thin. Almost all ManU players came down to defend! Even though if Henry had the chance of getting the ball, I didn't see him crossing any players!
Because of Barca playint method, ManU too did not have too much an attack on Barca. Park JS had 1 shot. Ronaldo too had 1 if I am not wrong. Barca merely did a mistake on their back. Yeah, the 1 mistake they did is to pass the ball to Scholes! That mistake cause them to loose! How pathetic it is!!!
