Oh Kay, 8 Points Clear Before Christmas !

what i obtained this week : my sweetie bluree bear !

The best pre-christmas present for Sir Alex Ferguson, 8 points up on the table and 8 points clear of Chelsea. Seems like the English took a liking of the number 8 as it means Prosperity in Cantonese.

Yes, Arsenal drawed Chelsea just now. Arsenal should have just won the game but frankly speaking, Chelsea could have grab the winner BUT luck was on Arsenal's side for Chelsea struck the post TWICE in 90th minute. As Chelsea seems to the more lively side, Arsenal was just praying for time to end. Without the presence of Thierry Henry, Arsenal's game are in a way, not like what they use to do anymore. With passes out to the wings, likes of Adebayor and Hleb were unable to produce the attacking formula that Arsenal once possesed. A shot wide from Van Persie is all he got as he was substituted later.

Mourinho decided it was time for a gameplan change as he substituted Robben and Wright-Phillips. Robben prove to be the vicious one as he nearly scored twice. Both wings of Chelsea definitely put more pressure on Arsenal. The most funny part of the game would be the clash between Drogba and Lehmann. As Drogba was clearly fouled in the Arsenal's penalty box, the Refferey didn't see it Drogba's way. As Drogba walked away, saying something, Lehmann just had to push him in the back. Of course Drogba wasn't feeling quite happy about it and he had to hit Lehmann back, which the incident see both players getting yellow carded. How childish of both.

Arsenal had to get comfortable in the zone of Chelsea's half to produce a goal from Flamini, which was short lived as Essien's stunning goal which may just be the goal of the week. The game from the 85th minute was definitely enjoyable as Arsenal had some close calls because of a blunder by Lehmann. He definitely did something to the post as strikes from Essien and Lampard struck it.

Perhaps the most unsporting, or maybe too sporting player would be Ashley Cole, who is facing his Ex-Club. He definitely showed no respect towards his ex-players nor his fans. Sadly.

Still, we Manchester United fans are happy being on top of the table.

And YES, we've won Benfica 3 - 1, Topped Group F and proceed to the Last 16 in the Champions League.

The week has been alright. Mid Term's up. Having one more paper this week, or two. Time flies seriously. For a while it was Monday, and now it's another Monday. I've been procrastinating, assignment not done, have a presentation coming up. And i'm sitting here blogging. *evil*

Maybe i'm a little too carefree. I should be pushing myself more. I definitely don't want to fail any of my subjects this semester. Considering Economics, Calculus and Algebra and Information Systems, which aren't my favourite subjects.

Christmas is near, and i would be celebrating it without my family. Well, i still have my friends but this would be the first time i'm celebrating Christmas out of home. Everything has it's first. *Wonders*. As i love christmas, i just wished that it would snow here. I've never seen snow before, only artificial ones. Made out of soap bubbles. =/

All right, It's already 3am and my class is at 10am in the morning. 6 hours to sleep.

signin off.

and i know it's a wonderful world.
