Congratulations to Kimi Raikkonen for finally clinching the championship in Formula 1. It's about bloody time really. Kimi should be 3-times world champion by now; were it not for the dogged unreliability of his '03 and '05 seasons in McLaren Mercedes. It must be heart-breaking to have the fastest car, the utmost pace, and yet you can't do anything about engine or mechanical reliability.
The only sad thing is he got his world title in a Ferrari. I am a huge McLaren supporter because they're the only team that can really serve it up to Ferrari consistently. That and they have a cool silver/black livery. Were it not for the tifosi (formerly the schufosi) and the bandwagon-ness of every other F1 wannabe supporter, I wouldn't mind Ferrari at all. Never-the-less, it marks an end to a good season in motorsports.

caught-up with uni friends
Tonight I went to have dinner at Squires Loft. It's a steakhouse and it's apparently one of the best in Melbourne. Well I certainly enjoyed my porterhouse steak and even though it was pricey, it was not as pricey as another famous and established steakhouse on Bridge Rd, Richmond.
Anyways, the reason for the dinner was to meet up with two uni friends - Nelson and John - that I haven't seen in four years. We didn't realise it had been that long; but then we didn't necessarily feel that it was all that long ago. I only stayed for the dinner, but that was enough to catch-up and to also strike-up conversations with Nelson and John's friends. Hopefully there will be occasion in the future to catch-up more frequently than once-in-every-four-years.

Well it's my birthday today. I didn't get up to much today. I'm just happy I managed to get some rest.
I did celebrate my birthday with a dinner at Hog's Breath yesterday night with a group of friends. It was a casual affair that was organised at the last minute. We were at a friend's housewarming and we decided to eat out (since there was no obvious dinner plan). I was a bit tired when the day started out, but it turned into a nice day with lots of laughs and a filling dinner of BBQ ribs at the end of the night. I just want to thank everyone (Steve, Sandra, Guaran, Chai, Sannie, Jeff, Fung and Yuen Yen) for shouting me dinner!
