Words......

Okay.....now's the time to test...just how many people read this blog and at what time.......

Right...so tomorrow...is kind of D-Day.......my friend's offered to style me for the audition...but I only get to see the outfit he's picked out for me tomorrow.....so I don't know what to expect.....

Tomorrow.....starting from 10 am....is the Star Idol auditions....and I'm still awake!! Packing for my semi impromptu trip to Singapore.....I have no idea what to expect at the audition...no idea what will happen......and it scares me.....heck even the prospect of getting into the show sacres me.....I'm not as nervous as I was these last few days when the thought of the audition day looming crosses my mind's eye......I mean...it's kind of do or die....

Now...just in case I don't like the image my friend's styled for me...I'm bringing a back-up outfit.....

But anyways....now this is where you guys come in....if any of yous happen to read this before 1-130pm on Saturday, 31st March 2007.......drop me a line with words of encouragement. But only if you really meant it. Pray for me, send me your well wishes, your love......whatever.

If you believe in me and what I dream for....please drop me a line.

Coz I think I'll be needing it.

Peace. Out.

Tink in her own film........hum...

I love Tink as much as the next person....perhaps a bit more actually...I really really love Tink......

But now she's got her own movie.........hum................have no idea what to make of it..........

I love Britanny Murphy too..........and she's voicing Tink....so....

Okay...truth be told...it's really hard to concentrate on blogging while listenning to Adam and Joe.....so.....I'll just give you the bloody link...and let you decide....hehe.......

Disney Fairies......

Adam and Joe

Before there was Robot Chicken...there was Adam and Joe.........

Check out Adam and Joe's version of Toytanic!

Perhaps not as scatter brained and random as Robot Chicken...but the Adam and Joe Show's still worth a lookie......

And if you like Japanese Pop culture.....do check out Adam and Joe Go Tokyo.........

Now if you want the full series of Go Tokyo.....(8 Eps only tho......the cheap bastards...I meant the TV stations loves, unless you two were the ones who cut the series short then I'd have to kill you..)..just gimme a ring aye...and I'll burn you a copy......

And if you absolutely bloomin' love what you see...check out the latest from Adam and Joe on podcast.........I myself have yet to check out the podcasts......so I can't vouch for it's hilarity...

Or perhaps drop by Adam's blog.....

Now. How did little ol' me come across Adam and Joe?

Well....back in the day.....when I was a wee young lass still strugglin' through my tertiary education in good ol' blithy......the idiot box addict in me...came across an interestingly informative show on Japanese culture called Adam and Joe Go Tokyo.........I watched the show as much as you possibly can on terrestrial TV...ie with no re-runs......but still couldn't catch to entire series........so once home sweet home in balmy Malaysia...plus the advent of Bit Torrent......I managed to wrangle myself the entire series! And have since......been advocating the word of Adam and Joe to all of my friends and family.........and now......to you......the unsuspecting Internet punter.........

Enjoy! ~_^

You Learn....

Chorus of Alanis Morissettes' You Learn-

You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn

You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn

What is this feeling.......

What is this feeling?
So sudden and new?

I felt it the moment I laid eyes on you

My heart is reeling

My face is flushing

What is this feeling?
Fervid as a flame
Does it have a name......

Yyyeeess...........lo-
it's nerves........haha....gotcha musical buffs!

No I'm not quoting the number from Wicked....well not it's in entirety.......

But yes...I have this sudden feeling....and I think it's a serious case of the nerves....

Nerves why?

This Saturday and Sunday is the auditions for Star Idol 明星偶像....yet another Singaporean TV transplant thanks to the lovely people of Media Prima and MediaCorp Malaysia! .....who most recently brought you, the very well received other Singapore Reality Gameshow hit....绝对 Superstar! This time...it's for actors.......instead of the usual singers............so guess what I'll be doing bright and early this Saturday morning? Lining up with tons and tons of people...to audition for.....明星偶像.......to be the next.........明星偶像 of Malaysia! yay!

Okay......if you sense a bit of sarcasm on my part..........you're not wrong.......but why the sarcasm? I have no freakin' idea......

Actually I have an inkling.....and that inkling is what's been keeping me up at night and grouchy during the day........this inkling....is this didactic debate my two halves are having with themselves.......a part of me...really wants this, but both parts of me don't want to be tied down to NTV7 or Malaysia.........both parts of me want to go to Taiwan, but this is a very very good springboard plus there's always the money.....a part of me wants to do that movie for James.......a part of me wants to go for the Amazing Race........but what really keeps me up at night is............am I good enough? As much as it makes good TV....I don't wanna be one of those people on TV who cry when someone crushes their dreams.......true, I have a list.....a black one....but...it's TV, right there and I hear the judge, he's a bit of a bitch........So I'm in for a golly of a time.......

What am I suppose to do? Feel?? Someone hand me an oppurtunity on a silver platter........

Oh wait a minute, someone already has....James.........hhmm...........

But I want world domination damnit!

Stomp the Yard

Alright...so yesterday me and the DPA-ers had a fun day out at the Zoo.....followed by this movie at KLCC....

So...what do I think of the movie?

It's got awesome dance moves...........the storyline's a bit cliched......

*** Spoiler Alert***

these people have got to realise that a death so early on in the movie, does not a good movie make...

*** End of Spoiler*** actually this is redundant...you've seen the entire movie a million times...I swear!

I mean the whole thing is so cliched.....the slow-mo when boy sees girl......girl has boyfriend, so our boys has to do something to get girls attention....girl's boyfriend is a jerk....so girl leaves boyfriend for our boy.....there's lots of dancing involved, stepping, a bit of tap, break......and did I just see some salsa? yea...........but the dance moves are cool....

But the movie's so filed with cliches.....every other scene.......cliche...you know what's gonna happen....only the dance moves really make it worthwhile.......at 7 ringgit....

Well...it's better than some of the other dance movies out there I suppose..........I think it's better than Step Up...that was a bit off........

Can't really say anything much about it...it's your average movie.......the script was a tad on the iffy side.......but hey..it's one of those....be dazzled by our dance moves and not our words kinda thing.....make you wanna take up stepping or something...

I did come out of the movie with something else, something other than a strong desire to dance..... And that is...the only thing I'd miss out on from the American Education system would be the Greek.....

Close call.....

Woohoo!!! Amazing Race Season 2 application deadline's been extended!!

Oh my gosh!!! Now Baks can sleep and we can do a proper video!!!

But do go try out for the Amazing Race for yourselves..........give me and Baks a run for our money.....

Come on....bring it on.

A lark......

Oh my gawd...I am so tired........actually more dehydrated.......

Recently, us ,original DPA-ers (ie, my batch and Yelena's)....deemed it necessary to re-connect with one another after a long absence from each others live so we decided.....or Raz to be precise suggested that we all go to the Zoo! To visit his, Tracy and Ain's relatives....the rhinos, monkey...and I don't really know who Ain's relatives are suppose to be......but yea....so we did. After much debate and changing of dates to be able to get the maximum number of OriDPA-ers aka Most Bang for Bucks, some were still unable to make it...alas.....we came to the conclusion that...today was the day.

So it was.......let's go to the zoo, there's lots of things to do........so goes that old KFC jingle......ah the nostalgia.....but alas, KFC was not there anymore....neither was Mary Brown, so Raz had thought...it's been replaced by this joint called The Wild...and they serve really bad fizzy drinks and salad...but surprisingly yummy mash........anyways...

After much stressing on my part from frustration of people taking wrong roads and me being stupid enough to follow, and also waking up then realising that some people were too knackered from their previous nights' activities (work really) to come with me which results in me having to rush to college and convoy with the rest of them..........we finally reached the glorious Zoo Negara (National Zoo, for the Malay uninitiated) at...oh....12-ish? So much for meeting at college at 1030.........JAM ON THE BLOODY KESAS......FROM SUNWAY!! AMBILLAH NPE!!!! *sigh* silly stupid little me....but anyways.........a fun day ensued......

A fun and sweaty day! It was blistering! And I was in jeans! Why did you wear jeans lah? I hear you say? Coz we were suppose to watch movie at KLCC after..........why didn't bring clothes to change then? Lazy. haha..........so there I was, walking around in my jeans which grow increasingly uncomfortable the more I sweat.....and I grow increasingly sticky as the sun blares on above me......*sigh*....but it was indeed a fun day.....sad and fun........

Sad why? Hello.......you been to Zoo Negara lately? ever? It's actually a very very very sad excuse of a zoo. All its' animals are cooped up and look miserable.....when we got they they were all in the shade and barely moved a muscle.........we were hot and sweaty....the poor penguins looked a bit like the ones in Happy Feet.....you know the ones in the whatever that thing is called......actually......most of the animals looked that way.........

Anyways, at the zoo, we encountered all of the usual suspects........not one but two rasta orang-utans, lazy chimpanzees, the pacing leopard who won't sit still for photos, the 'nyah'nyah'-I-moved-and-you-couldn't-see-it tiger, the I-love-you-therefore-I-drop-fish-on-you(Raz) bird, and of course, Raz, Ain and Tracy's many distant relatives.......

We took pictures, we had the compulsory Zoo Negara fried chicken, we took the tram, sang songs.............an exhausting outing that was..........and we finished with the Zoo at like.....oh.......4-ish?........ 5............then it was off to KLCC.....for some much needed air conditioning.....

On the way to KLCC, I gave Justin a call.....since he lived in the vicinity....and since he'd been wanting me to go around to his....I gave in and agreed......only if he came to pick me up from KLCC......(okay, if my writing takes a slight turn towards the british, I apologise...Fai always brings out the Brit in me...the brit git...)..which of course, he did.......in his green Moke......nice.......hey at least it isn't far from his house, KLCC....he lives in Stonor now......brand spanking new condo development......really posh looking.....tiny pool...but the place in it's entirety's alright...........lots of glass.....and I like glass on houses...hehe....

So anyways...I stayed at his for about an hour....listened to some stuff for this movie he's scoring.......had tea......took a tour of the new pad.....and then off back to KLCC for my movie with the DPA-ers....

Okay...I'm just scribbling nonsense at the moment....a bit out of it..tired.....was waiting for Baks to call so that we could do our Amazing Race audition video due in like....a day............why was it left to the last minute I hear you ask.......well......lot of reasons and not all of them procrastination........but mostly coz we only actually......for real....decided to join like last week.........so yea.........but since I'm tired, his boss is at his office with him right now.........I've decided that we'll do it tomorrow...morning....poor boy...he's going to be pulling an all-nighter again tonight at work..........

Affirmation

Euey recently told me about this movie called The Secret. In it, it tells you about the Law of Attraction and how important it is to visualise your goals and what not. Then I only realised later that around the same time, I had received an email regarding the same thing. The Secret.

And that got me thinking. The Law of Attraction. Visualisation. As I sat there with Baks and Gare, singing soppy emo love song after sappy emo love song, I began to realise what the movie and email were saying.....were right. Our emotional penchant for sappy emo songs of heartbreak and forever unrequited love, only seeks to attract more of the same into our lives. Come to think about it, it's similar to something they say in 7 Habits. To be a successful person, you need a paradigm shift. Stop saying that the world owes you a living, the world owes you nothing. You owe it to yourself to make a difference in your life. Stop waiting for things to come to you. The universe is a very generous place, ask and you shall receive.

So I am asking.

What follows will be a series of affirmations that I shall implement from this day forward.

This shall be my manifesto.
  1. I am going to be an award-winning actor.
  2. I am going to be signed to a well known and reputable artiste management agency in Taiwan.
  3. I am going to be successful.
  4. I am going to be famous.
  5. I am going to rich.
  6. I am going to be part of the jet set.
  7. I am going to win at least one Golden Horse, one Golden Clock, one MTV Award, one Cameronian, one Golden Globe, amongst others.
  8. I am going to be in at least one Japanese Yukio Ninagawa Shakespearean stage play.
  9. I am going to be, at the very least, friends with all the 'ma boyz'.
  10. I am going to write plays, idol dramas, screenplays
  11. I am going have my own theatre and film production company.
  12. I am going have homes in KL, Taipei, London.
  13. I am going to be loved.
It ends tonight.

Tomorrow is a brand new day.

Rhythm and Rhymes

Flavor of Life by Utada Hikaru

Curve-Balls....

Life is throwing me so many curve-balls at the moment I don't know what to do now.....

All my planning seems to be going awry......nothing wrong with the planning....just so many people are giving and showing me so many oppurtunities....I don't even know where to begin.......

Everything seems to be keeping me back in one way.....but pushing me forward in another....it's all directing me to directions that I way not want to go......but yet.....all these oppurtunities are so precious......

In a way, they may help me in my goal...in another they may not. All these oppurtunities take time........time that I may not have the luxury of taking.......you know what I mean? I'm not getting any younger......

Yes, those of you older than me will scoff....eh.......you so-old, what about me?!!......but you and I have different goals in life, different dreams......yet, I can't say for sure that I am all that clear about my own dreams and what it takes to get there.........

Some of you say...what is a year? A few more months? For all I know it could mean everything.....How many of us have missed oppurtunities by only mere months? Just by being born that few months sooner or later? Months are not something to be scoffed at!

But still.....an oppurtunity is an oppurtunity no? One door closes and another opens.......besides.....nine out of ten auditions you lose anyways....no harm in trying all ten doors......

Right.........?

Mukhsin

Just watched Yasmin Ahmad's latest movie..........have so say......I perhaps went in with too high of an expectation....

It was an alright movie........a bit of an art housey feel.......quiet, pretty.....the issues are not as in your face at Gubra.......but still have to say, I prefer Sepet.....

I did not like the casting of Sharifah Amani's younger sister.....she...didn't really fit the role....or she didn't really portray the role well...Amani's older sister was cute as the mother though......

The movie has this languorous feel.....like it's this cat that's slowly stretching itself out.......the music doesn't help......but not that it's a bad thing......it's one of those quiet movies that let's you think......

It's worth watching if you've followed Yasmin's movies so far....not that it's a continuation or anything...perhaps it is, just can't decide yet......it just enriches the vision of the world she has painted for us so far......besides....YOU SHOULD GO SUPPORT MALAYSIAN CINEMA......and a relatively good one too.....

I'd say it's worth a watch....may not be your cup of tea....but mild food for thought.......

Shooting......

I know I say that acting means a lot to me...I keep saying that it is my form of escapism......that being on stage gives me a buzz.....but I never realised how true it was, or how much it really affects me........or means to me....until last night......

I was having a crummy afternoon yesterday......either coz I was watching all these soppy idol dramas or whatever........but I was really feeling very depressed. Then came time for me to go for my shoot with Seng Tat....I couldn't find anyone to give me directions....I felt so lost......and then I got there early, so decided to put on some make-up and wait for crew to come....they were running late....they came and I was still a bit iffy coz I didn't really know them...only a few of them, and then only by sight.....them then as the night went on......and we started shooting, being around them, shooting and stuff....I totally forgot my depression....and I left the shoot.....feeling normal again.....

Perhaps it's just nice to be doing something.....for myself at last........acting, outside the confines of the four walls of the education system......doing something because I want to....and not because I have to.....Perhaps it boils down to my philosophy.......You need to, do what you like, and not, like what you do.......there is a difference....a very big difference. To me.

So yea. Perhaps this time....I've made the right choice in my life.......doing what I love.........

Hiroki's Cross Dressing on stage!!!!

OH MY GAWD!!!! That's Hiroki in that wedding dress holding Shun's hand! My poor Shun!!!! Hehehe.......

That's whylah.......I was wondering......where the hell is my Hiroki? ....then I suddenly saw this picture of Rosalind in drag....... lo and behold! There's Hiroki!!! I'm like OH MY GAWD!!!!

I think Ninagawa-sensei is going for the whole all-male cast thing.......SO COOL!!!!!

I so want to watch this.......I WANT TO GO TO JAPAN!!!! But since my current financial situation will not allow it........Please!!!!!!! Come out with a DVD of the show!!!!!

Shun and Hiroki!!!! A couple..........SO CUTE!!!! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

To find out what I'm talking about....check out the As You Like It by Yukio Ninagawa official blog.

Bridge to Terabithia

As much as I want to like this movie.........it sucked......

It's like a poor attempt at a cross between My Girl and Finding Neverland. I didn't go into the movie expecting CGI, I read my friend's blog and he said there wasn't much......but still..I wasn't expecting this.....the trailer AND the poster are soooo misleading....but they did do what they were suppose to.....get my sucker of a butt on that cinema seat........

Okay the movie had its' moment......but that's it.....moments........it was a series of certain well written moments, in a sea of....near rubbish.....and most of them only come towards the end of the movie!!

I don't really know what to say....it's a good effort? I have no need to make nice and say that......

I sat down and saw the opening credits roll......perhaps should have been my que to ask for a refund....or hightail it to another cinema....coz.........it's like watching something on RTM2...it was a let down....

Story-wise, there were so many lose ends.....they introduced a lot of things but never really went through with them.....urgh......

Another friend of mine went into the show with very low expectations.......and he still came out disappointed.......and he wasn't expecting Narnia either...

Perhaps Walden Media needs to stick to what they do best. Movies with glorious CGI SFX...like Narnia and LOTR.........

Boys and Girls.....

OH MY GOSH??!!! How could I forget what I did on Tuesday afternoon??!!! I spent Tuesday afternoon with Eu Hui!!!! *smacks self on forehead*

Yes.....I spent the entire afternoon with Eu Hui at the Curve......the day before I had asked him to transfer all 18 episodes of Heroes into my external hard disk so since I was free the next day, we went for lunch. Eu Hui wanted to buy Frank Miller's graphic novel, 300 after watching the movie, but Borders was SOLD OUT! And that was their second shipment! Now poor Euey has to go to Times Square in hopes of finding it there......but Borders the Curve is getting another shipment soon anyways.....so he'll get it eventually...........but I'm sure he'd prefer it sooner rather than later!!

In other news.......I just got back from Summit. Got a a call from Cat yesterday to help her and Hisham out as a model for their 'event', I actually don't really know Cat very well....and so was a bit surprised that she was the one to call me. But I decided to help out since Hisham's on her team as well. The both of them are in this new reality TV show.....kind of like the Apprentice...but only you get hired instead of fired...I can't remember the name of the show...but it'll be out soon so watch out for it. Anyways...so was at Summit at 4:05......and lo and behold was like one of the first few there...of the modelslah.....Hisham, Cat and their team mates were there earlier to organise........It was so nice to see Hisham again....haven't seen him in ages....since he joined the programmelah......they keep the contestants cooped up in Summit Hotel for the duration of their time on the programme....poor boy! He soooo wants to get hired so he can get outta there! Hope you get hired soon s'yang! Well, the event went okaylah....for something in which they only had two days to organise...it was alright.......the stage was tiny tho...compared to the last show I modeled for at the Malaysian International Fashion Week.....but like they said, they're amatures kan? The stage was a bit wobbly at bits...so was a bit unsteady when I walked...but over all...I think I........did alright....not great but alright....I mean no rehearsals.....no nothing.....bolehlah...hehe....the make-up....was a bit heavy tho...for such an informal-ish event.....but oh well.......at least they had Elianto to do make-up!

Alright...I actually don't know what else to say....except I like hanging out with my boys...hehe.....

Whirlwind Days.....

It's been a mad mad mad couple of days........or is it a few...it's Thursday today...so it's been a few....

Monday sucked coz we had to go in and talk to Puay Tin.........

Tuesday......Tuesday was alright...can't remember what I did in the afternoon...but did a photo shoot for a friend that night. Met up with Alien again, he was the male model.....I think the boy looks like Matsumoto Jun.....I couldn't recognise the kid cause someone had him bleach his hair blonde....but I have to say....he looks good with blonde hair.....not many Asian people can pull off blonde hair....but he can! Funny thing was we were suppose to be a couple for the shoot...but every time he met my eyes......he burst out laughing.....so none of that happening for the shoot!....anyways, at the time I laugh with himlah.....but really......I know you're cute...but am I that.........oh...I don't know...unattractive?! Or perhaps it's just nerves........whatever.....he is a good model tho....oh... and I found another reason I can't be a model....I boobs are too big..haha......as are my thighs..but let's not go there....

Yesterday........jeez.......I had to meet up with Amal and Tracy to discuss the next production. I ended up having to fetch Amal then Tracy.......which is really no biggie and we all went to Pyramid.....discuss discuss.....then balik.......I was suppose to drop by this place to do casting at 3-4...but i didn't want to tell them a time, coz I knew there was a chance I couldn't commit to it...so I biar saja....I was only done at Pyramid at 4....so I kind took my own sweet time to get to casting......Baks was bored so I dragged him along for company.....got to the production house at 630......and only got 'casted' at 9. I'm like WTF?!! I didn't like those people at all.....I thought they were a bit...off..........but whatev.....the DP gave me attitude...I'm a bit...you think I'm stupid....just because you smile your f-ing fake smile you think I don't know what you're thinking? I don't need this.....That was casting...I was very cheesed off.......

But the night that followed totally made up for it....Baks was going to bring me to this place he knew which served really good grilled meats...but when we got there.......I pointed out that a certain group of people hung out in that area and since Baks didn't like this certain group of people......we hightailed it outta there toot sweet.....then Baks wanted to check out if his other place in Pudu was still open.......so from PJ we drove, or he drove, my car, all the way to Pudu but alas the place was not opened.......so I said let's go to Coconut House......which we past....they serve awesome tiramisu with liqueur in it, great pasta and pizzas baked in their own wood-fire oven......but since we were on a one way street, we had to take the round and about way to get back to Coconut House.........

Now....on the way back to Pudu, Baks decides to bring past Changkat Bukit Bintang..........and as we were driving, we began to admire the myriad of swanky new places that had opened up on Changkat....even some of the 'guest houses' look pretty good! and respectable I might add.......then the both of us saw it......Relish......the place that will soon become our regular hangout............we both took one look at it and went..."You wanna go there? It looks cool. Let's go there! Now find parking" So we immediately found parking got down...and It was all that we imagined it to be and more.....The thing that got my attention was gourmet burgers printed on the skirting of their awning......that coupled with how the place looks like..made it soo...Soho...New York Soho.......swanky stylish, minimalist with a bohemian edge...hey anywhere that serves tofu burgers is boho in my book....and good tofu burgers at that! The burger had tomato relish and pesto so fresh you could taste the seeds and the herbs....just these layers and layers of flavours.......awesome and ssoooo yummy......and it came with this really nice toasted pita bread which was still fluffy!! fluffy!!! on the inside...YUMMY!! Me and Baks looked around the area and went, "Let's come back here every weekend to check every thing else out!" So that's where you'll find me and Baks from know on......Changkat Bukit Bintang......in the evenings...when we don't have to spend time with the family........

Okay....I would tell you about today....but I need to go pick Baks now from work......haha.......then it's off to watch Bridge to Terabithia! YAY!!!

Yukio Ninagawa does As You Like It

Yukio Ninagawa's working with my boys again!!!

Shun seems to be his current favourite..........what about my Tatsuya? ; (

Anyways...this time he's working with Shun and Hiroki in Shakespeare's As You Like It! Damn I wish I was in Japan!!!

Check out the blog ......tho it's in Japanese! A shame........but rabid fangirls like me can just, and are more than happy, to ogle pictures!

Shun looks so cute with long hair!!! Heheh......but Hiroki is no where is sight........

I hope they come out with a DVD.....I just got Ninagawa's Romeo and Juliet with Tatsuya and Anne Suzuki (the chick from Initial D)! It has no subtitles....but hey....it's R&J...who needs 'em?

Next item on the wish list........the Shun double bill......Comedy of Errors and Titus Andronicus! Yummy!

New Look....how?

It's finally done...after slaving over my comp for the past few hours.......I have managed to get my blog....looking slightly respectable.........

I apologise for all the pink...but hey...I'm a girl...and it's balanced off with grey and black.......

So drop us a line if you drop by...tell us what you think...........


And in other news.........I just brushed Justin off for breakfast, as well as a possible oppurtunity to audition for a DIGI ad..........i favour of..................................*drum roll please*.....

Playing Star Wars KOTOR II again...for the next 3-4 hours..........hhhmm........right choice, wrong choice...........hhhmmmm.................................

Monday 12 March 2007

Check this out...Malaysia Boleh...haha

Check this out.......a friend sent it to me.....

It's a lark.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmmjPbYU1og

Be careful of the slight flash of 18SX-ness.........but really...it's not overt or anything......just matter of factual......

300 KICKS ASS!

Went to watch 300 with some friend last night....after Coffin.............and lemme say.......THE MOVIE KICKED ASS!!!

GO excessive amounts of slo-mo violence!
GO surreal realistic graphics and sepia tones!
GO gorgeaous fight choreography!
GO excessive amounts of beautifully rendered garnet blood splatter and sprays!
GO kick ass one liners and smart ass sarcasm!
GO Queen Gorgo!!!

Queen Gorgo rocks......

***SPOILER ALERT***

*gut*
(whisper)
This will not be quick.

*gut somemore*
(whisper)
You will not enjoy this.

*gut even more*
(whisper)
And I am not your Queen.

*gut further and slash that Spartan knife as you pull it out baby!!*

***
END OF SPOILER***

As much as it is a testosterone laden, gore and muscle fest.....Queen Gorgo more than makes up for it in Oestrogen man......I'm like.....I WANT TO BE A SPARTAN WOMAN!!!

If I'm not mistaken Spartan women had almost equal rights in Spartan society....afterall.....Only Spartan women give birth to real men.

Sorry for that spoiler...but it comes in like..the first 15 minutes of the film....so it's alright......hehe.....

All those one liners in the trailers......they are so awesome when seen in context.........So we fight in the shade....tonight we dine in hell.......Memorable lines man!

You should have seen me after the movie...I was soo pumped up.....swearing my head off! Exagerated movements.....going swoosh, swish and what not.... Dude........you have to watch it man.......it's like candy for the eyes.........like one of my favourite lines from Grey's Anatomy......

Cristina Yang: It's like candy, only with blood; which is so much better........

For thos who say that 300 lacks substance.......come on...get over it....it's not suppose to be an epic that stimulates the mind....it's a piece of eye candy.....a summer blockbuster or something.....stunning comic book like visuals.....FRANK MILLER...HELLO!!! SIN CITY!......the director. Zack Snyder, admitted himself that it's not historically correct....they changed stuff so 'it would look cool'!!

And look cool it does................sweet man..............makes you wish you were Spartan......

toxic......

I don't know what pisses me off more........actually there's only one thing I'm ranting about but just like saying that.....

Anyways......it's really pissing off when people only think about you when they're bored....like really only when they need someone to kill time with or when they only need you for something......

I mean really....do you really expect me to drive all the way to KLCC for you? Just to have a drink while you wait for someone to finish having dinner??? Who the heck do you think you are?!! I mean it's KLCC for gawd's sake!!! Not 1 Utama!! It's in the middle of the bloody Golden Triangle! I mean come on...by the time I get there you'd be ready to go! We live in PJ you know...... if it were anywhere else...in PJ...or near my house to be more precise.........then perhaps I would have dropped by...like I did for Baki..just now...at Subang Parade........but KL- f**king-CC? Give me a break........

Then.....when i say I can't come and ask you how your trip to Thailand was....you gently brush me off with a "Thailand? Tell you about it next time we meet lah. Ciao!" WTF?!

Look...I know...of late........I haven't been the best of friends with you.......yes...I did brush you off at your performance to hang out with this guy.....but hey.....you didn't come for my show.....my graduation show....but hey, who's counting...right? I could have been more supportive of late.....yes......and I am really sorry for that..........

Actually...I don't really know why I'm apologising...but just letting you know......

But KLCC AT 8 PM.......WHEN I JUST GOT HOME....MY MOM'S IN TOWN...AND WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE?? I don't know if you realise...but it's rush hour and the middle of KL....

So yea......I am sorry if i don't want to layan your whim......

Karaoke!

Few days ago, finally met up with Baks after not seeing each other for a while.....actually only a few days...but hey....we're tight...haha....

Anyways.....met up with Baks and went to Red Box. Initially was suppose to go get an IPOD case for my measly 1G POD nano....but they only had pink and blue......which I didn't like soooooooooo no buy......then we went to Cineleisure to check out what movies were playing....failing that with nothing interesting on.....we went to Red Box....

We got there at 9:50 just in time for the Buffet which would end at 10! But they let us take food into the box...so we grabbed everything that looked good! Haha...I think we pretty much ate our money's worth!

We cycled through most of our own favourites...this being our first time K-ing together........did Take That and Spice Girls marathons....I sang lots of Taiwan mandopop, Baks sang Indon and Malaysian hits and some mandopop 'oldies' .......all in all a rather entertaining night....... ^_^

We finally left the place when it closed shop.......at 2:50am....according to our watches.....so REDBOX STILL OWES US 10 MINUTES!!!
