After making deliveries, we bought breakfast and headed over to my place. I bathed first and ate my breakfast while Andrew surfed the Internet after showering. ( He still has the energy to surf the Internet ...... ) We then slept for the whole day and I was almost late for the match. We then got ready and met up with the rest. Today is matchday for my Constituency Sports Club (CSC) which I am managing. The opponent was Kaki Bukit CSC. We reached Delta Sports Hall in time for the match. We only had 6 players for the match so we just had to do whatever we could. In the end we lost the match as we don't have enough players but there is a side note to the match. A player of the Kaki Bukit CSC was injured as one of my player clashed with him. I guessed he scraped his scalp and he was bleeding profusely. we then helped him to a corner while Andrew attended to him as he had received his First-Aider certification before his trip to Penang. We then stayed to wait for the ambulance.
We then went to catch the train back; the players had gone back first. Andrew went back home while I took the train back to Pasir Ris and got some food first before heading home.


Something To Share

While on the train back, I saw on the newspaper that Steve Irwin had died. I was so shocked by the news. A dampening end to a day.

Here's the news :

Steve Irwin, better known as 'Crocodile Hunter' died on 4th September 2006. The highly popular Australian television personality and conservationist was stung through the heart by the poisoned tail barb of a stingray while on a diving trip. He was filming a television segment shortly after 11am (AEST) in 2 metres of water at Batt Reef, about 32 nautical miles offshore from Port Douglas for a series called 'Ocean's Deadliest'. He was 44.
The crew members aboard the boat, Croc One called emergency services in the nearest city, Cairns, and administered Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) while awaiting a rescue helicopter. Medical staff pronounced him dead later.

Steve Irwin shot to international stardom when his television program, 'Crocodile Hunter' was first broadcast in Australia in 1992 and later picked up by the Discovery network. His amazed shout of "Crikey!" when faced with a huge crocodile, poisonous snake or menacing-looking spider - which he would invariably then go on to manhandle - helped to transform him into an Australian icon around the world.

He leaves behind his wife, Terri Raines, their daughter, Bindi Sue, eight and Bob, two, who will be turning three in December.
