i can see the perfect sky is torn

When you feel like everything is weighing down on you, all you want is just to break free.


I want to break free. If only 'everything' is contained in a fragile glass ball, I would smash it into pieces now.

*sigh*


God give me directions please. Give me insights to all these troubles impinging on me now. Please.

3. because it's today!


Today is special. 



Not much were done but the time spent was priceless. Thank you for everything. =)


29 November 2010



because i need directions



I've been thinking. It just came to me when I least expect it. Idk how it happened, or why it became such. I have the fear in me now. That feeling of uncertainty. That feeling of not knowing what will become of my future. And given the fact that the decision to be made is in my hands, everything becomes more daunting. 

I've really been thinking. And though it is frightening and terrifying to actually say it out, I'm afraid I might be losing interest in Journalism and favouring Broadcasting more. I myself am not entirely sure which is which that I really have a knack in.

Maybe because after the presentation I did for IMCOMM as the topic I did was Movies and Motion Pictures. Or maybe because of the incompetency I've started to feel. There are so many maybes and yet, I do not know which maybe that resulted in my current state. 

I'm confused. I'm uncertain. I have doubts. I am lost. So completely.

And I'm so sure that's not a good thing. Not a pleasant feeling at all.


I need new directions, that's why.

the road not taken is the best traversed

So we went to the beach today. =)


It was later than planned. It was longer than expected. And definitely not as smooth as it could have been. Not forgetting the massive congestion after a KESAS toll where much later only did I realize we were at the highway in front of Summit USJ. Um, so I guess we were at USJ then. It was raining. So yeah, we thought the jam might have been caused by the pouring rain. But only after at least half an hour of bumper-to-bumper crawl, we came face to face with an overturned truck. 3 lane-ful of vehicles squeezing into a single lane. A failed move actually since they were mostly Malaysian drivers. ;P

Oh yes, it was Morib beach by the way. Morib Gold Coast. It was far from what I had expected. Clearly, I've yet to witness a crystal clear ocean with a clean white sandy beach. I still do long to go to all the beautiful beaches in Malaysia. =)

Thank you so much for the day. =)


The journey may be tiresome, the beach may not be as nice, but the company always makes up for it. =)

the first of the last


I'm in good spirit, really really good one. I'm feeling hyper today!

The movie is about 2 hours ++. Lengthy ain't it? And boy was I freezing in the cinema. Teeth clattering, tingling feeling in my thigh muscles and losing senses in my fingers. I was numb. My bad for not bringing along the super comfy over-sized jacket-hoodie and for wearing short pants. Yes yes, my bad. =(

But it was not bad for the last installment though it could've been better. Speaking from a HP book reader and a fan's point of view, there were actually many parts that they've omitted from the movie. Oh well, even after they've excluded those scenes, the movie is still so long. Can't blame the producer though, he really did a great job. Toast to David Yates! =)


Ahh, you know at the start of the movie, when this logo appeared, it was truly a heart- wrenching moment. I mean, guys, it's Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows! It is the LAST and FINAL installment! Well, not entirely because of that though. It's just a genuine feeling that I could hardly describe through mere words. It's an experience. A journey you've walked through together with JK Rowling and the whole of Harry Potter's casts. A story that you've immersed yourself in since the moment you became connected in this magical adventure. Boy I could really go on and on talking about Harry Potter. And it's really really sad that it's finally coming to an end. After all these years of anticipating new installments, new characters, new battles between The Chosen One and The Dark Lord, everything's gonna end now. It's just so sad you know. And that explains this long-winded babbling thanks to the logo up there. ='(


It's Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows. Okay peeps, I don't mean to be rude or sounding so arrogant but it's actually The Deathly HALLOWS, not HOLLOWS. No, seriously, I've heard many people pronouncing it as HOLLOWS when it should be HALLOWS. Even radio announcers okay??? *rolls eyes* Oh come on, it's like, the first part of the last installment already. Please please pleaseeeeee, Hallows? =)


Awhhh, see how they've grown. Ahhhhh *sighs* =')


I love her. I admire her. Hermione Granger, the brainy one. =)




They look like they're on a mission to kick some bad guy's ass, don't you think? ;)
The awesome trio.


Oh yes, how could we possibly forget The Dark Lord and his faithful Death Eaters. Oh yes! And Bellatrix Lestrange! Being Voldemort's lover. ;P
And you know what, someone said she is Medusa. For those who've watched Percy Jackson and The Clash of The Titans, you would surely remember that unique-looking and guy-killing lady. Erm, direct translation? ;P




This scene was pretty funny. And cute! Cute to Fleur. And Fred and George! Ahh, I just LOVE the twins. They are ever so funny. =D


She's ever that skillful and smart. =)


Oh yes. And that's the logo as the title implies. The Deathly Hallows.

The Elder Wand.
The Resurrection Stone.
The Invisibility Cloak.


This is nice. I love the effects so much. =)


Ahhh, Ron and Hermione. Seemed so unlikely when they were younger right? Oh well, that's always the sweetest one. Started off as enemies and ending up as lovers. I always adore such a form of love you know? If that's what it is. =)



Dobby! The free elf. =) 
He died because for Harry Potter. Indirectly. Had I not been so freezing cold causing me to lose full concentration in the movie, I would've shed a tear. Maybe.

Doesn't this look like they're dressed up for Christmas? Um, well, as a matter of fact, that particular day when they both visited Godric's Hollow, (this, you can pronounce it as HOLLOW cause it really is Hollow. ;P) it was actually Christmas Eve. A sad Christmas Eve though.




Seeing them caring for each other and secretly loving each other is truly amazing. =) Ron is funny and Hermione, ahhh, she can be bossy at times but they're just so funny! =D I love them!


Oh I love this, I love this, I love this! Fred is so funny! Oh wait, was it George? I think it's Fred. No wait, George. Ahhhh, whichever la! Both are equally hilarious. =D



Heart-wrenching ain't it? Truly heartfelt emotions. =')



Dude, see how they've grown??? I mean, look at it!


And here are several scenes from the movie.






And finally, have a look at the magical crew from the start to the end. Amazing and mesmerizing much eh? Just looking at all these happy and charming faces puts a smile to my face. Well, even for little Draco. He was mischievous but he grew outta it too in the end. =)

Oh yes, I do realize I've inserted more pictures than I should. Um, it's what they would call, yellow journalism? Sensationalism? Gee, Mr Winston would be so proud that I hadn't erased all of those even after my finals. ;P

Oh, and you know what? I know it might sound insane but, I guess I'm gonna have a second round of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows tomorrow night. This time, with mum and bro. Oh, and I would definitely my comfy pink sweater and strictly NO short pants. It's Harry Potter, I wouldn't mind going for a second time you know. ;P

Oh! And I almost forgotten. The trailer! =D



=)


Alright, guess I'm gonna end here before I start rummaging for more pictures. 

So long, farewell!

you eat, you pray, and you love =')

Since mum had watched it and resulted with a negative review about it, I thought it was gonna be boring too. But I was actually hoping that I would have different view from mum. =D




This scene was especially CUTE. I mean, the irony! Nuns savouring ice-cream. Yummy!
That's in Italy. Awh, I wish I could go there someday. Their food was so tantalizing! And the pizza and pastas. *drooling*


And in India, this elephant. Awh, it was adorable! Boy I love animals. I love snakes too. ;P


And then finally in Bali, she fell in love with this guy.


Urgh, Bali's scenery was truly heavenly. I love the sea, I love the plantations, I love it, I love it! =D


Awh, how I wish someday, I would be able to tour the world just like that. Make enough money to go on a world trip. Maybe just with a simple backpack? And taking beautiful pictures. Living as a part of the place that I would be. Experiencing the lifestyle in every part of the world. Awhh, I wish I wish! =)

i found the eye-opener





Guess I found the reason I enjoy being left alone. =')



final blues



 Finals are, over. I'm not feeling especially over the moon or any of that kinda feelings. Idk if it actually had anymore impact on me apart from finally getting a two-week break before starting all over again. And that's, the end of Semester 1 of my Foundation year. Time flies, ain't it? Guess I couldn't have agreed more.

Do I sound emo? Jeez, such a long time before that word just came to me. I'm not being sad or emo now, but I might be sometimes for no specific reasons. And I clearly dunno why am I talking about this right now. And I thought this was supposed to be a happy-after-finals blog. Screw that.

I feel, pathetic sometimes. It's ironic sometimes, you know. I feel like a loner sometimes. It's not to say that I don't have any friends or what, but when I come to think of it, it's just, everything just doesn't fit into the pieces that it is supposed to be. I have friends, oh yes I do. But it's just, sometimes I long for a girl friend that I can talk anything with. Don't feel sorry for me, it's not what I'm asking for.

That's why to me, it feels so much easier to have a guy friend than to have a girl friend. Damn, this feels awful now.

But anyway, I just fell ill on the last day of finals. How awesome that is.



And I really really really wanted to go to that prom so so so badly and was extremely looking forward to it. *sighs* Nothing else I can say. ='(


Hoping you'll have the best of times though. =')

lights off, start rolling


Um, yeah, it happened AGAIN. And due to the same reason too.

I ditched revision for movies.
I'm already feeling bad about it NOT, don't make me feel any more guilty.



Synopsis: Sequel to the sleeper hit where a young couple becomes increasingly disturbed by a demonic presence. Director Tod "Kip" Williams is new to the horror genre, having directed indies "The Door in the Floor" and "The Adventures of Sebastian Cole." Oren Peli ("Paranormal Activity" director/writer/producer), Jason Blum, and Steven Schneider return as producers. In this movie, Katie's relatives install a security surveillance system in their home, after experiencing what they believe to be a series of break-ins by a vandal, only to discover from the footage that a paranormal presence (and Katie herself) are responsible for the damage. Convinced something supernatural is going on by a ghost, the family deals with Katie's tormenting, as she violently haunts them all and seeks to take her baby nephew Hunter. 


Bet you've gotta watch the first part before you watch this sequel. Kinda of a letdown though. Um, Idk whether I should be thankful for that or not. Quite a bore from the beginning to the middle but nearing the end, it was just getting to me. Mind you, I was watching it ALONE in my bedroom okay? Oh well, in the afternoon though. =P


But anyway, I still think that PA 1 was 100 times scarier than PA2. Also, PA was more genuine. Genuine as in, they were super-natural. Not that paranormal supernatural but they were really super duper natural la. LOL


PA 2 seemed more like they were acting but PA 1 was truly recorded and original material. *thumbs up*


Right, the realization that finals are next week hadn't hit me hard yet. Screw that.
I'll continue human comm tonight and msian studies tomorrow. Yes I will. *fingers crossed*




PS. Watching the trailer still scares me though.

blue suction moron


So I realized my finals are next week and I still had plenty of revision needed to be done and yet...


So there you go.

Skyline.


Synopsis:In "Skyline", we follow events after a night of partying when a group of friends are distracted by beams of light awakening everyone in Los Angeles and attracting every person like a moth to a flame. As the night progresses, they soon discover that once addicted to the light, one would vanish into thin air, and that extraterrestrial forces are starting to swallow the entire human race. 

Yeah, another of those alien-taking-over-the-Earth movie. Alien invaded Earth, sucking people into this mammoth Terminator-Salvation-like-thingy and removing human's brain before literally undergoing a suction-pump-like tube. Eww!

Apart from the brilliant blue light, half-killing suspension and aroused hope during the battle between human armed forces and alien air force, the movie was just plain OKAY. Sorry to say but there's really no storyline, ending was kinda dangling (maybe there's a sequel to it?) and not forgetting the fact that the plot was pretty misleading as well. There were a couple or so parts that seemed like the movie was about to end (which I was so glad about) but in fact it wasn't even close to ending yet.

Dammit, I'm such a terrible critic. Sorry, my bad. =/

But nonetheless, like I always do, at least I've watched the movie and now I would not waste my time downloading Skyline. =P


Um, maybe some merits for the movie? The leading actor, Jarred, was quite good-looking. Oops. =P The ending was not too bad too actually. It was sorta dangling but it had some sense of um, humanity? Blended with love and sacrificial and protection? LOL
I know, I know, my grammar just sucks big time. =(

Um, watch it still? Support Universal? =)




Apologies for any offence caused.

your vote counts!


Peeps, cast your votes now for the People's Choice Awards!


And I just did mine. =D

It's difficult to choose between Gossip Girl and The Vampire Diaries, but, I chose it finally. =)



Please please pleaseeeeee vote for Damon Salvatore and The Vampire Diaries? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee? =D

It's the only vampire movie that I am so gaga about. Not Twilight, not Bella, not Edward. Not even close to being a fan of them. =P



Vote pleaseeee! =)

a Sundayful cuddles



I want to watch Titanic right by your side and weep though it's the 298705297th time I've watched it.
I want you to wipe away my tears and pull me close to you.
I want to cuddle in the warmth of your arms.
I want to hear you whisper in my ears.
I want to lay on your bed with you next to me.
I want to listen to you talking to me and letting you fiddle with my hair.
I want to cook fried rice with you and eat it on your bed.
I want you to hug me as much as I want to hug you back.


It's a good Sunday with lots of cuddles. =)


"We hug we talk we play we eat" 
Quoted.
