Horse-riding, thunderstorm and more movies all in 2 days!

Heeey Eerrrrbody. It's me yet again. So last weekend was pretty exciting! I finally went to the Gallop Stable on Saturday, and that was way coool! I got the chance to try horse-riding for a bit, and oh my heck! It roooocks! It was my first time so I was pumped for that. I have a couple of pictures that I'll put up. I was a little nervous at first heh, just because I wasn't sure how the horse would react towards me, but it's not even scary when you get onto it. Ah. I must have been a little weird-looking with the helmet on, but that's ok because it was totally worth it haha. I can't really explain how it was because it was... just a really different experience. I talked to the handler who took me for the trail ride too and asked him a few things. And the next thing I know was we ended up chatting a whole lot like old friends do lol. And he told me, the horse I rode is the most obedient of them all but the horse that was used for the person before me is a little odd. Apparently, it's easily frightened by noises and it can suddenly jump upon hearing someone's talking very loudly. Then the handler even went on to complain about his job and his manager haha. It's funny, you never know how people are going to be when you meet them. But it was really neat to know how really friendly he was lol. In that way, I wouldn't felt so awkward, you know?

Oh and there was a very, verryy big thunderstorm right after that. So the trail-riding activity had to stop. And the scariest part was that the entire place is so freakishly open and the only shelter everyone had was the cafe. But even the middle of the cafe is open air sitting. There were a number of times when we could literally see the aggressive lightning struck near the cafe. It was sooo much dangerous but still, there was this caucasian family who allowed their kids to run around. There was one part when the lightning became more intense and much closer and it exploded right in the middle of the cafe. It was dang loud that all the small kids started to cry. But it was probably one of the scariest things I have ever experienced. The weirdest thing was they left the horses out in the big storm! Oh well, I can just go on about the rain, but I just don't want to go on not making much sense. Man, there're so much to talk about! But even though I didn't get to spend a whole lot of time down there at the stable, it was still really nice. Fun stuff... It was soooo much fun just horse-riding so I've really enjoyed my little time there. I want to go back soon haha! I'm just hoping it's not gonna be thunderstorm again next time.


So another thing I got to do later that day was to watch Push at the new E!Hub at Downtown East. Me and my family contemplated on watching either Watchmen or Push at first but most of them picked Push. I say the movie's fine. It's not a great movie to many others but I have an open mind to the possibilities of unrealistic movies haha. But that wasn't the only one we watched that weekend. On Sunday, all of us snuggled at my sister's house and I know it's a pretty strange choice to watch the new Street Fighter movie. But to enjoy these types of video game adaptation movies you have to lower your expectations. Looking like Chun Li or not I still think Kristin Kreuk is awesome.... and she got to speak a little bit of Mandarin in this which was cute lol.

Oh! I'll just mention one more thing before I go. This is going to sound random but that day, we also tried this new snack recipe which my mum remembered from one of the tv shows last few weeks. It's toasted bread with peanut butter, lightly coated with egg and fried. You can use jam or even nutella. It was soo addictive heh!

Well anyway, I better head out now but I'll talk to you guys later and let you know how things went this week! Probably how the DASG meetup goes to! Hasta luego.


Song of the week: Apart from David Archuleta's Barriers ("here we are lying here, it's our last final goodnight. just because it feels so good, no use pretending we're alright". I just have to sing that hah. So sorry for having David again so soon but this song is stucked in my head right now!), I'm going to add Michael Jackson's You Are Not Alone. Gotta love that song. Michael Jackson's an amazing performer and I'm glad that American Idol chose yesternight to be his week. Danny Gokey was amazing too with P.Y.T!

Birthdays, chalet and movie!

Hola. It's me here with another blog. There're so many things goin' on last week, so much to talk about but I don't want to make this a novel! so I'm going to try and summarize them haha. Last Tuesday was way exciting because I got to go out early before work to buy some stuff for Elizabeth and Farhan's birthday with my colleague, Ayu. We were sharing them together with Lindy and Orange. And the fun part was when we came to know that this cool shop we were intending to go at first wasn't opened at that time. So there and then, we were trying to figure out really quick what other good things we could buy for them. Actually we had a few really random ideas but they were pretty lame, so I'm not gonna mention them here but it was funny though. And I still think the craziest thing was that we always wanted to buy things for ourselves instead lol. After walking around, we managed to get Elizabeth a really cool stuff from Body Shop and a Clinique Happy cologne spray for Farhan. I've always liked that spray 'cause it has this really refreshing scent. Well, it wasn't that difficult to get something for a guy after all, right Ayu? lol. But Elizabeth, being really appreciative, bought for us Subway cookies to share. So that was a surprise to us cause we weren't expecting it at all. I thought it was uber cool and nice of her to do that! But anyway, I was just hoping they liked what we gave.

Last Wednesday was another extremely fun day, because I got to go to my friend's chalet at Downtown East. I was already a little sick at work before that but still I tried to go since it had been the longest time since I last went to Downtown. It was weird though 'cause the chalet was held on weekdays and not throughout the normal weekends but I had sooo much fun there. We had dodgeball for a while, a few card games and then the most craziest loudest part was the musical chairs we played! We're dorks, dang it haha. But even though I sweat so bad it was worth it. So fun stuff. And after that, I kept falling asleep lol. I was so tired. Ahh, that was when my migraine got a little worst! But I was lucky 'cause two days after which were my day offs.

Then on Friday, I got to go out with my mum and niece to watch The Outlander. I was pumped at first as it was always cool to go to the movies with my family and have a fun time doing something together. But I totally forgot that the movie was rated NC-16 and so my niece couldn't watch it. Usually the ticketing staff or whatever you call them don't bother so much but it was just that day she wasn't allowed. So me and my mum decided to watch it at night after her mum took her home after her work. And so while waiting, we hanged out at Swensens where we had something for lunch and took a lot of crazy random pictures. I shall post some up here but only some cause the rest were really crazy ones.



So back to the movie, I thought it was gonna be another great Viking Sci-Fi film since it was from the same producer as Lord of The Rings. The plot was alright and at times entertaining but it was one of the most predictable movies I've seen. I'm gonna say I quite dislike the ending.


Oh. Check out the picture below, just thought I'd share with you guys. They're actually cream puffs that my sister bought for us last Thursday. It's getting more innovative than the doughnuts we have in a lot of stores here, isn't it haha?



And before I go I just wanted to post this video taken from David Archuleta's first live concert at Virginia Beach. The song's called Zero Gravity. David is amazing amazing amazing amazing, and he sounds so GOOD live! So instead of a song for the day I think you should check him out haha! ("When things get messed up, you bring my head up, I get lost in the clouds"... I just had to sing that haha)


Zero Gravity




P.S. I'm so glad to hear that he might be coming here on April 7th! Looking forward to that. THUMBS UP for DASG for what you gonna do for him! Like the idea haha.

Well that's it for now. I've written quite a bit in this one. Sorry I can't ever make these short but I'm done now. I better get going here. So I'll talk to you guys later. Peace.

Week of updates.

Hey Guys! Just wanted to share a little bit on what's going on lately. Some interesting stuff I did while I had a couple of days off. And I at least think it's interesting. So... what was really nice about it is that I've been able to spend more time with my siblings and mum. They had a few days off too. It's so nice to finally relax and hang out with them. So it started on Friday night. We went to shop for a few things because we were going to the beach the following day (we haven't done this one for a while!). And we all slept at my sister's house. There we got to watch Adam Shankman's Bedtime Stories. A bunch of my friends had suggested that I should watch. And I actually really liked it. Adam Sandler was dang hilarious. But seriously, if you have not seen the movie then you should check it out 'cause it's a really cool movie! Well, at least if you like adventure comedy it's funny.

And so... as I've mentioned, we hanged out at the beach at Pasir Ris (the one beside Downtown East) on Saturday. And we brought lots of sandwiches and stuffs made from home! It was pretty cool because I never really get to hang out with my brother and sister a lot, and do something fun with them. I was a happy camper. We got the chance to cycle for a bit and explore almost the entire area which I LOVED! haha. Gotta love outdoor adventures! Crossed a couple of bridges (I was really bummed though, the scary haunted maze isn't there anymore) and then we passed by the mangrove swamp till we finally reached Downtown East where we decided to cycle back. So I got some good exercise out of it. And there was so much to look at there. I got some pictures so I guess I should probably load those up here. Had a good time! Brothers and sisters we bond.



Oh well. Lately, I've been eating WAY too much, but hopefully I'll be able to lose some of it lol. But yeah. Sunday morning was fun because me and my family got to work out a little bit together after breakfast, which has felt amazing! I haven't really gotten the chance to go running and stuff for a while (except for swimming), so I was excited to be able to fit that in. I hope I get more of that. My brother.. he didn't follow maybe because he prefer to zap zap his tummy and zap his thighs using the uZap machine my sister have at home lol.

So another thing I got to do on Sunday was to play a few PS3 games with my niece which was a lot of fun haha. Among those were Grand Theft Auto which was way cool and The Amazing Kung Fu Panda haha! I know it's a pretty surprising choice to choose Kung Fu Panda but when I started to play the game, it was actually a pretty AWESOME game. Play it to believe it haha. And then... that afternoon, we got to hang out at the airport for a while. I remember when I was seven, I love going to the airport and imagine I'm one of those flying overseas, saying bon voyage to my family and then pretending to check in with my "travelling" bag lol. I'm such a dork haha. Anyway, my mum and my sister did a little bit of shopping there and then we had lunch. Had fun. We had a great time.

By the way, I'm gonna side track a little bit here. But I guess the bee that was wandering around here in my room earlier, has gotten into my computer's motherboard and got stucked among the fans. Sorry I know that was random, but I can hear it keeps buzzing inside haha. I didn't think that bee would get stuck inside but I guess it is... But anyway.


Ok wrapping up here, yesterday, my eldest sister came home, and it was GREAT to see my little nephew and niece again! They grow up pretty fast haha. Really glad that I was able to see them. Well so far so good memories lol. But I've rambled a lot more than I wanted to lol. And it's 2:30 in the morning, so I should prolly go to bed cos I'm feeling a little tired here. Yeah prolly you know... have some dreams here now..... 'cause I'm tired. Need to go to bed. Alright, well... have a good night or good day whenever you read this. and take care till then. I'll try and update you some more here. See ya!

Song for the day: I'll be - Edwin Mccain. I like listening to it. haha

8.1.09

So much for the advice.

Holaaaa. I'm down with fever and bad sore throat today that I can't barely talk much. Actually I've already had the sore throat since yesterday, however it wasn't as bad. Still, I went out today, like for almost the entire day haha. See I've always been advising my friends on how essential it is to have a really good rest whenever they fall sick when I myself did the otherwise. Alright, I know I should be in bed at this time and get some proper sleep, should't I? While here I am, blogging haha. I'm just hoping that I'll be fine tomorrow.

Okay, pretty random, but I finally bought quite a few chapsticks this afternoon with my mum. I've always wanted to get them but procastination always gets the better of me! Well, the reason is because my lips can get so chapped sometimes which really hurts. Sometimes, even my throat gets like so dry and it's always been like this since like I was still in primary school. I guessed I got it from my mum. I actually used to got like this little box filled with chapsticks and lip balm and stuffs that I didn't know where it went to. Kinda cool stuff and I personally like Carmex especially the one that tastes like cherry haha. But anyway I'm getting off topic here...

Then I went to watch the third installment of the Transporter series. I didn't quite like the whole plot but the fighting scene was pretty much AMAZING. That's one heck of an action movie haha. Better than the first. The part where Jason Statham drove his black Audi A8 car (I like that car) sideways on two wheels was really awesome! I just can't get over how good the car stunts were although there was one or 2 that were just plain unbelievable.


It was really fun to be able to hang out just watching movies and stuffs haha. And we all had a blast. Alright, I better get going here 'cause the cough syrup I took earlier is making me drowsy. So talk to you guys later.

Anyway, a song I've really liked lately is Little Things by Colbie Caillat. So if you're looking for a song to listen to and you haven't heard it before, you should check it out.

How good it can be.

I don't really like people questioning or commenting on what I'm wearing. Because I don't do that. Well... only if I ask for their truest opinion. If not, they might as well just withhold their views to themselves. The important thing is that I'm comfortable with what I'm wearing, isn't it? Like the other day when I wore my Flash and Splash wrist band at work for fun. I pity those who didn't know what exactly that was. Some even thought that I had injured my hand. Wasn't that funny? Wouldn't I have used bandage instead if I had injured my hand?

But hey, lets move on. I've already watched Twilight (which Dilla had strangely heard it as toilet the other day when I mentioned it. lol.) last Sunday with my family. This means my sister and niece had watched it twice already on the big screen. I must say it's pretty good. Even though it wouldn't grab you at the edge of your seat but it's pure popcorn fluff which entertains. Just went to enjoy the different kind of vampire flick. Doesn't really matter what others had said. It is watchable. They probably have different thoughts about it because they have read the book beforehand. It's like Harry Porter. Or... they probably had anticipated gore, hardcore action, whatsoever after seeing its trailer. Well c'mon, this movie is based on a young adult book. You can't expect much from it anyway.

I must say I really like that cool baseball scene! (which I'm very certain most people do). And if only, me and my friends possess that synonymous kind of energy, strength and power, I suppose every game we play would be that electrifying! You have to watch it to understand what I mean. Just don't be silly to watch it on youtube if you intend to watch the movie in cinema some day.




And so, what was the next best thing to do after watching the movie. Of course eating, and yes, we ended up in Bistro Delifrance again! I told you I don't mind going there again. However, there is one thing I don't really like about that place; it's the staff promptness in topping up the customers' ice water. But other than that, it's fine.




Well speaking about food, have you people, by any chance, watch The Rachel Ray Show? I believe not many have. My mum is a hardcore fan of hers and she will never miss it on the weekdays, never ever. And as for me, I like everything that's in her kitchen; funky, retro, vintage furniture with retro, bright colors. I used to tell my mum, my house will be like that some day. How exciting. And I'm bent to making it happen! Uhh yes. Since I've come to the topic of houses, I got to show you these pictures of rental houses in Japan. They're weirdly unique.



By the way, Christmas is coming, which is also gonna be my eldest sister's birthday. I already received a few small presents from my non-Muslim friends. And yesterday, I received the first gift from my colleague. It was a packet of Oreo biscuits and a five-dollar gift voucher from Starbucks. Nice! Thanks to her. Now, I suppose my favourite chocolate cream chip with whipped cream is waiting for me.


Alright. I'm quite tired now. Went to swim a few laps even though the weather wasn't that good this afternoon. It's raining again now, and since my eyebags are getting heavier than my weight, I guess I really need to sleep early. So till then. Have a great holiday eve anyohow.

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to,

I had fun on Friday night (I was on off!) watching Journey to the Centre of the Earth at GV.

Directed by Eric Brevig, this film is based on Jules Verne’ classic 1864 novel (we have 2 remaining copies at Page One Literature section, yet sadly, we couldn't even locate one yesterday. how pathetic!), but updated to the 21st century, in which Fraser (who acted as Rick O' Connell in the new Mummy) plays an eccentric scientist who takes his nephew and an Icelandic mountain guide on a quest that unexpectedly launches them on a thrilling journey deep beneath the Earth’s surface, where they travel through never-before-seen worlds and encounter a variety of unusual creatures!




I don't quite get why movie-goers criticize the fact that they survive a huge fall but mention nothing about the FICTIONAL ****ING CREATURES! It's a MOOOVIIIEEEE!
Ever see a movie where a guy gets shot, bleeds, but somehow can do a whole karate fight with the bad guy. Same thing. Its a movie, enjoy it, or don't go see it, and stop critiqing the CG. This one is fantastic, by the way.

The show's definitely on my "must watch" list! No, it's not going to be some oscar winner... just fun. Believe me, the totally CGI subterranean realm is a marvel, in a theme-parky way, strange places that are totally fakey looking yet completely photorealistic at the same time - it’s like being in a live-action cartoon and you can relive your childhood all over again, and let your imagination run wild!

You might have completely forgotten the entire experience before the credits are over, but it’s fun while it lasts.

Enough said, then it was down for Earthquake at T3's Earl's Swensens.





The next day was Desmond's (my ex-officer now) last day at work. We actually gave him a printed picture of us all (which was made into like a frame with cardboard glued over its back) with a goodluck-farewell note attached. But this is another story altogether. I shall blog about it some other day, maybe when I receive the photos. On another side note, I managed to help Ayu shelved some of her books. That was the least I could do before Orange comes back to work (back from Osaka... and welcome back to Singapore!!) and Ayu, hope that lessen your stress yup.


Fadhli visited us at work in the afternoon. That was my first time seeing him again since he first entered and experienced 'treachery' that is National Slavery. So army has made a change in him. He looked quite shagged (effects from the training), a bit bored (Haha... I know why) and of course so much tanned now. Anyhow, army has seriously turned me (maybe him too) emptier than I already am, and I remembered getting glued to the Thrash Realm of MTV in camp which obviously doesn't make me anymore of a thinking soldier I should be. But I supposed I missed everything, and by everything I mean the people I've met.





That evening after work was spent with some lovely folks from Page One. Hawa, Nini and Taufiq dropped by, and we headed down to Arab Street for dinner, where we talked deep into (which we rarely had the chance too), and at times prompting the-much-needed laughters from everyone. Hahaha. I admitted me and radin wanted to go home straight at first... but I supposed the company was fun. So tell me who can forget about the cockroaches?







(Funny how I've kept my smile outside, but this empty yearning deep inside.)

8.8.08

80s, i know.


One of my favourite movies of all time. Watching this makes me feel like when I was much younger, except now I can watch the entire film on Youtube.

I am such an avid late 80s- early 90s film buff.


(enjoy.)


2.8.08

This is official.

I can't wait for November, now!

15.6.07

Surf the Silver,

Caught Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer at GV yesterday with my mum and niece. Not that fantastic la, just average. Ahh the silver surfer turned out to be not as I expected and there was this pretty lame combination of powers, nothing spectacular. I don't wanna reveal too much here, but seriously, they think Captain Planet ar? Haha ok-ok but still if you want some light entertainment, you can go go for it on weekdays la.


The good thing was with my purchase of popcorn combo, I got this 'Surf The Silver' notepad free. Nice! I like to collect free movie collectibles la can. I have so many of them now.

After the movie, we headed down to White Sands for a very late lunch/early dinner before meeting my sis after her work. I must say, that shopping centre changed a lot. From having only McDonalds and now they have other fast food restaurants like KFC and Burger King too. Actually thought of having laksa at Cavana so at least I could curb my craving for laksa (so long since I had one). Unfortunately they didn't sell it now. I ended up having the Chicken Cutlet rice instead which wasn't that feeling. Ugh.


Plus we haven't eaten our lunch and I didn't even had my breakfast (cos I got this habit of not eating breakfast which is really bad I know). So my sis suggested BK then and since she had the BK White Sands Grand Opening flyer (sorry, given exclusively for Pasir Ris Residents only). Basically you only need to present any 1 of the King's Cheques in that flyer at BK White Sands to enjoy the grand opening specials, which also mean 'Discounts'. Ahh eat again! C'mon only yesterday la. How I missed BK... Wahaha.


Rushed home after that to catch Alan Coxon and Kathy Sykes' "Ever Wondered About Food" on Arts Central. Haha... apparently I just like to watch cooking shows with people (or celebrity chefs) like Jamie Oliver, Bill Granger, Martha Stewart, Nigella, Neil Perry etc etc on TV. Quite mesmerising, aren't they. Yeah anyway.

That's about it for yesterday. Today, I met my ex camp-mate, Andrew, on the way back home after the Friday prayers. Didn't notice him from far with the dyed hair and all until he approached and said hi. Plus I was busy sms-ing other ppl that time. Ahha... excuses. No!!! I really was. I would have approached him and said hi too if I knew it was him earlier, really. *smile

I was actually watching Anugerah Planet Muzik '07 (the local Malay music industry's version of the Grammys) on tv before typing this. Kinda remember I'd usually go down to watch it live last time except last year's and this year's. Save money eh. Btw this year, saw Letto, the new Indonesian band, performing (I think they were good), and you should seriously see Jaclyn Victor's (the first Malaysian Idol) impressive live performance via youtube here. Also caught the last episode of Supernatural season 1 in between. Didn't like the ending but of course there is a 2nd season.

Ok doki.. I'm freaking lazy to write anymore right now. To all, do enjoy your holidays (if you are having) and have a great day ahead of ya. Take care!

4.6.07

Best In Me (you).

I was browsing thru all my emails when I saw this.



"WAH! WHAT IS THIS?" It is...

THE NEW-AGED ROLLERCOASTER!

called Bike Booster at Toverland, Netherlands. Watch this clip of the theme park itself.



So damn cool ride, isn't it? Alright no backflips whatever, I think, but it's the experience baby. Oke although the following request is like the impossible, a boy can dream and ask for. Still, anyone can take me there... PLS? *make Shrek's Puss In Boots pitiful face just like the picture below* -Haha- 'Nuff said.



Shrek The Third is funny. I like the way the movie handles King Harold's passing with humor, tears, dignity and a classic song. Where King Harold tells Shrek and Fiona that they are next in line for the throne before he passes away. I remember that was exactly the part I laugh so loud until the angmoh family in front of me looked behind. O.M.G.! Paiseh. Have a good laugh, go go watch it!

In fact, there is a message behind the whole plot of the movie which I really believe its very true in life. That is when Artie says "Just because people treat you like a villain doesn't mean you are one. The thing that matters most is what you think of yourself." So when someone calls you a loser, it doesn't mean you are one. We should learnt to see ourselves for who we are. Now what is right is to bring the best in me, you and all of us.

That aside. Woo. I'm so gonna watch Michael Bay's Transformers after seeing its trailer (i.e. here) at GV before Shrek started. Sure brings back childhood memories aight.



**********


This morning, I've gotten my Market Research group assignment result. Kinda anticipated better results from this one. Erm ya... a little disappointed at first but... alright I know a 'credit' is good enough. To pass is much more important now.

(Another note to myself: 2 more days to my exam results.)

Well, seems like I'm just too drained for a proper entry.

Maybe another day then.

And I leave you with this picture of Greg's 21st birthday (they're missing one person I guess and that's me =p)


For now, bring out the best in you!

12.5.07

So back at home.

Today, saw me watching Spider-Man 3 for my second time this week. Believe it. But I know ppl who have already watched 4 times! I guessed it's way better than Superman Returns cos I fell asleep for near 1/2 of the entire Superman movie! Yeah, I know many ppl hated it and would advise against seeing it. Superman was so much better (pls tell me that you are kidding). But I kinda dug it, the third sequel was a good flick. I don't get why ppl didn't like it. I could follow everything going on perfectly. Right now, there is a lot of ideas about it. Some ppl will like it, and some will dislike it. Still, I thought it's worth to watch it on the big screen. I like it.

Wow... Maybe you should read this forum, ppl had so much unnecessary sarcasm about the sequel. Someone posted this, "why did Mary Jane break up with Tobey on the bridge? Did harry threaten her life, did he threaten Peter's life, or maybe Aunt May. And cos he's freaking Spiderman, what reason could she possible have for breaking it off, what could she be afraid of when she has a superhero to protect her." Now c'mon, who said heroes can't die. Duh. So to these ppl who typed so odd comments, can seriously buzz off. I thought the movie does not deserve all the negative reviews. The way Tobey Maguire delivered Parker's imperfectness is credible. And he is funny, even off camera. But that's another thing altogether. Here, you gotta watch him on the Ellen's talk show!


I supposed I am a TV junkie back at home - watch TV a lot and then talks about it. Nowadays, TV has been my only rescue for sheer boredom. So did anyone catch American Idol last Thursday night? Blake is not out. Yeah, my american idol pick would be either Blake or Jordin. Like what Tobey had told Ellen, his pick would also be the two. We see this week. Meanwhile, they did the full version of the songs they performed each week and you can find them on youtube if you like. But you need to see Simon and Ryan, again on Ellen. Funny, you go watch it.

Maybe, I am just an avid buff for english talk shows. And The Ellen Degeneres Show is one of the best talk shows in my list. So those of you who have not watched it before, pls do. Everyday on a few time slots. Even the review says "Her offbeat demeanor and dancing feet attract many, but perhaps it’s the sometimes downright silly humor and skits that make the show so much fun to watch". I still like her dancing part cos it gets you moving. But if you are absolutely clueless right now with whatever I'm saying, it is worth a watch.


Alright, just a few hours ago, I've got my MP3s rearranged in my Sony Ericsson phone and my WMP. 'Cause I am blasted with the same o' songs over and over again. All I wanted to do is get some old songs removed, and the new ones in, which I already did. I totally can't imagine how on earth I could even did away with my MP3s for the past exams period. I am not crazy. It is like must we always mug and squeeze formulaes and theories into our poor little brain for the singapore dream? What is wrong with letting yourself breathe?

Yeterday, I had a chat with a friend about living in Singapore, you just have to read this. It wasn't absolutely shocking now that Singapore has landed a less welcomed honour, that is, its pace of life is literally the fastest. Which also literally means 'the most stressful'. Duh. So, thinking of migrating anyone? I've gotta insert Chris Daughtry's 'Home' on my mp3 now. And maybe I will remind myself Singapore is my truly home. Haha tk care!

9.5.07

Somewhere only we know.

I felt compelled to talk about this again after today's American Idol. Sorry, mates! (just couldn't get enough of it) Chris is out, I'm down with Blake. His vocal work - the 'beatbox' -it's new, it's different! you should listen to this. Even if he busts out that beatbox all his performances, it's contemporary. He knows art, no way it gets 'old' that quick. C'mon, why not something new? Not sure if Blake's gonna stay, based solely on what the judges had commented. I thought I didn't agree with all of it.


Let's just get out of the box. Probably we should move towards the Paula School of Criticism, that is believe in accentuating the positive and concentrating on the rightness brings more rightness. I am certainly more jaded with Whitney-Houston or Mariah-Carey alike here. So Blake, anyone? (We'll see the results later)

I've finally resume my running after a hiatus! How long was it? Hope I stay faithful to it. If it isn't meant for the IPPT. Nah. Also a good remedy to clear my head. Yeah, maybe I should go for a swim later in the day. I like that idea!

Meanwhile, that's aside. The very most recent movie I've watched was Spiderman 3. But I can't hardly wait to watch Lee Tamahori's 'NEXT' played by Nicholas Cage where he has this uncanny ability to see a few minutes into the future. Like awesome! With that you can change the present and your future.


What else? 'Fantastic Four: Rise of The Silver Surfer'. Am I hooked up to the movies once again? Haha. And whenever I talk about movies, it all brings back to the campdays where we would be seeing movies and then end up with a very long post-movie discussion that could last us the entire journey back camp. I'm not kidding mate. There was once KY even wrote his own interpretation of the movie 'Re-cycle'. Or issit another one? Haha whatever it is, Jeremy will be organising another meet-up this Sunday I think ever since the Protégé. yeah I've got to confirm again with Ken.


Now, I felt like sleeping. Haha like what I've talked about with my friend on MSN earlier. I've got this bad habit of falling asleep in front of my computer during my poly days. That's terrible. Let me finish this first. Haha alright I give up. Maybe I'm off to sleep now. My dreams will take me to somewhere only I know. Like that song from Keane. Here, it is. Will update again later!
