Currently Playing: Kings of Leon - Fans.
This is the only Kings of Leon track I can listen to, and for some reason they remind me of Suede. I wonder why?
Anyway. I am. As stated above. Very much. In the state. Of befuddlement.
I don’t know how to put it best; I am just
many things right now. Flabbergasted, gobsmacked, enraged, upset,
furious, disappointed, and in a lot of pain. Somewhere in all that mix
is also surprise, sympathy, sheepishness and maybe a little bemusement.
I can only pinpoint two things that may be the source.
The first is obvious - Riise’s gift to the
Blues in injury time at Anfield will stay with me for a long time. The
Blues get a priceless Away goal, and I’m going to get nightmares long
after if the Reds don’t do something drastic to break the Blues
successful streak at Stamford Bridge next week. Riise could’ve cleared
the cross with one simple flick, but no, he had to pull a header. He
was once my favourite defender in the squad, along with Finnan,
Carragher and Hyppia (eh that’s everyone) and I enjoy his signature
thundering goals, which is why I pray he redeems himself and fast.
Watching the Blues celebrate a goal they hardly deserved made me grind
my teeth. It’d be understandable if Liverpool were playing against an
actual team that night, but Chelsea were virtually invisible, save for
Cech’s magnificent saves. Grant’s already contemplating boarding for
Moscow. Unbelievable!
I await the second leg. One thing’s for sure. If we go down, we’ll go down fighting to the last man. You can’t argue with that.
As for the second, it’s something
work-related. I’m currently drawing up some documents for a civil
action between 2 companies, and I can tell you, this is where my BM
skills (or the lack thereof) is being seriously tested. Preparing the statement of claim (or pernyataan tuntutan) especially is the worst. I take ages.
Anyway, I found some discrepancies on the
naming of the defendant in the file assigned to me, so I went to the
CCM with Aisya to retrieve some background information on the
companies. For RM10 per company, they printed out a stack of sheets
with all the details, and once we returned to the office, I went
through the stack. There I made a discovery.
I now find myself preparing the papers to be
served on a company where a relative of mine is one of the directors. I
am assisting in instituting legal action against him! And what’s worse
is I put my name down instead of my firm’s when I requested the
information. I don’t know if it’s in the system, but if it is…I’m
going to have some answering to do.
What am I supposed to say to him in our next extended family gathering?
I can imagine it now, I’m sitting across him
at the big family table, he asks me how I’m doing, I say I’m quite fine
thank you, to which he’ll ask what am I up to these days, to which I’ll
answer oh, nothing much, doing some hobbies here and there, and oh,
also, the firm I’m interning at is representing the company who’s going
to sue your company. I’m working on it at the moment. You’ll be hearing
from us soon.
Family dinners will never be the same again.
Hence. The state of befuddlement.
Enough said here.
