  • Euro2008 : They are the champion!

    by mohdzuraini @ Monday, Jun. 30, 2008 – 22:40:17

    Champions

    After 44 years, Spain created a phenomenon, beating the mighty Germans, 1-0 to emerge as the champion of Europe.

    The game was magnificently superb from the start till the end, but only to settle with a goal by Torres hitting the net in the 33min of the first half. Only then, Germany was awaken from the slumber and menacingly trying to find an equalizer but to no avail.

    Spain was the better side and they ought to win the title. Germany has to be contented to settle as the runner-up after failing to live up to expectation.

    It certainly was a 'beautiful game'.

  • Euro2008 Final : My preview

    by mohdzuraini @ Monday, Jun. 30, 2008 – 00:32:00

    Euro_Final

    After thrashing Russia 3-0 in the semi-final, Spain looks unstoppable. The only team which has shown consistencies in every match, I'm thoroughly not surprise if many are predicting that Spain will be crowned as the king of Europe.

    England legendary superstar, Gary Lineker, also made his comment earlier in this tournament, that he has no doubt that the Spaniards will march into the final and sealing it with a victory.

    Germany, the least favourites tonight, but their willpower to never surrender may put tonight's result at 50-50. Germany has also surprises of their own and it could turn their underdog status into their advantage.

    Looking at both teams past performances, Spain has what it takes to be the champion. But history track records favoured Germany winnings in most of their meetings.

    I hope tonight's will be a superb game to watch and so be the best team wins!

    Adios.

  • Euro2008 Final: Germany vs Russia?

    by mohdzuraini @ Wednesday, Jun. 25, 2008 – 01:16:51

    flags

    The fiesta has now reached the semi-final rounds, with Germany against Turkey and Russia facing Spain.

    At the Quarter-finals, we have seen how the World Champion, Italy beaten by Spain. We have witnessed the Russian edged out the Dutch. We have looked how the mighty Germans silenced the fanciful Portugal and we have accepted that Turkey is still a strong force to reckon with after humbling the Croatians.

    But it's really not about the semi-final matches anymore now. At this stage, football enthusiasts, all over the world, are more thrilled to prognasticate the 2 teams to be in the final.

    I don't know, but my gut says, it's the Russians and the Germans to play the final, OR either one of them, at least. :)

  • Father's Love

    by mohdzuraini @ Monday, Jun. 23, 2008 – 01:50:43

    Yasmin Ahmad, one of Malaysia's top film maker, was given the opportunity to create this public commercial for Singapore's Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports (MCYS), to instill awareness and the importance of family bonding.

    Despite all the controversies heard about her films in Malaysia, her determination to produce creative scripts, has made her one of my favourite film director of all time.

    After much publicity made in the local media, I got the chance to view this simple yet impressive commercial clip about the relationship between a father and his daughter.


    Another beautiful TV commercial I've seen, was by a car manufacturer. It has a similar story plot which I had to control my tears from falling while watching it. It reminds me of my childhood days with dad.


    ps: Abah, you are always on my mind.

  • Can you hear me

    by mohdzuraini @ Thursday, Jun. 19, 2008 – 02:42:10

    Porto_GER

    While Spain will meet Italy in the Q-final match, Germany is facing Portugal. Both matches are equally exciting.

    All punts are favouring Portugal this time round, since Germany has not been very impressive so far. By chance, the Germans managed to scrape into the quarter finals only after beating Austria by a goal.

    On the other hand, Portugal has been very outstanding against Turkey & Czech but flung deliberately against host team, Switzerland 2-0.

    Could it be a mismatch somewhere on the pitch or maybe a battle plan strategy made up by Portugal to sway enemy's attention towards it's internal strength.

    But always be frightful with the mighty Germans. They normally started off slow but ends up in the final. They have proven in the last World Cup and I'm sure they are able to create upsets once again.

    Meanwhile, let's dance to the Euro2008 anthem!

    Its been quite a while not having been to the beach. Strolling by the seaside, enjoying the sea breeze and soaking under the hot sun.

    So, since the rain has stopped, why not make the trip. Here are some photos from our little island.

    10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1

    Now add up the total number of points.

    (My points are : 4 + 4 + 2 + 6 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 7 + 6 + 1 = 40)

    OVER 60 POINTS :
    Others see you as someone they should "handle with care." You're seen
    as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may
    admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust
    you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

    51 TO 60 POINTS :
    Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive
    personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though
    not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome,
    someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and
    enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the
    excitement you radiate.

    41 TO 50 POINTS :
    Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and
    always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of
    attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their
    head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding;
    someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

    31 TO 40 POINTS :
    Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They
    see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who
    makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal
    to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return.
    Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your
    trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get
    over if that trust is ever broken.      (True!!!)

    21 TO 30 POINTS:
    Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very
    cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would
    really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the
    spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from
    every an gle and the n, usually decide against it. They think this
    reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

    UNDER 21 POINTS :
    People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs
    looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions
    & who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They
    see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some
    peopl e think you' re boring. Only those who know you well know that
    you aren't.

    How much you got yours?

  • Upcoming new projects

    by mohdzuraini @ Monday, May. 19, 2008 – 01:45:39

    The week before was terribly hectic. I have to shift gear to speed mode where everything has to be doubly-fast! Though, it was an energy-draining week, but I have to admit that most tasks were well performed with minimum hurdles to overcome. Overall, I'm completely satisfied with things are.

    Got to meet some new clients from Jurong Corp last Tuesday . We were introduced to some of their new projects. We will be starting a Business Park project for One-North. Since I was already involved doing the simulation of the Master Plan a few years back, I am really looking forward to continue my involvement further.

    Biopolis: One-North, Singapore.

    It was a great introduction with the good people from Jurong Corp. I had the chance to introduce my firm, Zuetech, to them and they were quite impressed with projects that we had undertook. I hope that could instill some level of confidence in them before we move on to the next level.

    Wednesday was doing site visits during most of the day. Went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital to do some site checkings for the new escalator works at the basement level.

    The escalator works at the basement level of Tan Tock Seng Hospital

    Minor issues cropped up, but the men were quick to find solutions before the RI inspections next week. So, well done boys!

    Thursday was in office for a while. Finishing stack of workloads which had to be postponed for the past few days. Clearing off emails and reverting necessary ones.

    Tai YuanYvonne called me on the phone later in the afternoon. She planned to visit Tai Yuan Heights for her new reconstruction project. So met up with her later in the evening to discuss some technical matters.

    Made a trip later in the afternoon to Tai Yuan again for site measurement. It was drizzling before we had the chance to tour the site. But managed to make a thorough checks in the later part, although we caught ourselves a little wet.

    Then came Friday. It was supposed to be the start of the weekend and fit for chilling out, but things seems not to be slowing down any moment. Meeting already started at 10am. I had to do project briefing to the builders and engineers to get them prepared for the upcoming inspections for the hospital works.Some outstanding works still in progress. So they have about a week to rectifiy things and adjust to the schedule.

    Saturday made a trip back to office to finish up building plans for Yvonne. We were hoping to submit by the end of the day. Unfortunately, some design issues cropped up. Accuracy and precision to each details were commented.

    So, after spending the whole afternoon amending the design, she finally aborted the process. I believed she wasn't very pleased with the outcome and I wasn't too. But then, it was a bit too late to launch the submission. So we have do it after this weekend.

    I can anticipate that I'll be quite occupied next week. We'll be at JTC Summit setting up office for the drafting team.  Got an email from client yesterday, requesting for their resumes. I hope Shawn should be able to get a few guys on board by now.

    Really hope the coming week will be much easier for us. I don't want to miss the movie outing with the guys later this Friday. :)
