“She might be special, but she is not the one who thinks that you are the only guy who will treat her the best on earth.”

 

 

Somebody told me this before, now I finally understands what it means. You are really someone special to me.

Hooked…

Dear blog, been neglecting you for awhile again… Thanks to my lack of inspirations again lah… =D Sibeh no mood to blog these days kay…

SO, here’s a quick post during my very unmotivated-to-study mood sem finals. Actually its just to tell everyone that my blog ain’t really dead, yet… Hehe…

Music played a very large role in my daily life, from the moment I woke up till the moment I slept off, there will always be songs coming out from my modest 3 year old Altec Lansing 5.1 speakers. This is some of the shit I’ve added to my playlist now.

Yasmin Ahmad 1958 - 2009

It was in the evening while I was driving back from Penang when I heard the announcement on the radio, that Yasmin Ahmad, the director that brought us all those interesting TV commercial during the festive season had suffered a stroke and past away.

For that moment, I was reminded of this commercial about a boy expressing his love for this girl in the commercial (which actually, I found out later that day that it was the other way round, oops).

Besides that, she was also a great story teller and director by producing films that won awards all over the world. Though the only movie I have manage to watch produced by her was Sepet. I don’t quite remember what the film is about anymore, but I reckon it was one of the best, why? Because it actually caught my mother’s attention after she read the reviews and she waited till the original DVD is out so she could watch it at home. Mind you, to catch my mom’s attention on a movie and making her forked out extra to buy the original DVD, and not from the local ahbeng DVD seller is really really impressive.

Most story written by the late Yasmin Ahmad is all about a slice-of-life of the local Malaysian people. Every time I see her advertisement on the TV, this feeling of nostalgic and familiarity will come out within. In my mind will be thinking “Damn, that is just SO MALAYSIAN!” you just felt you can relate to this. She have this ability to capture small little things that we always took for granted and amplify in her short commercials. Just brilliant.

Here’s a short clip of what I’m talking about earlier.

You will be dearly miss by every single Malaysian out there.

Sleepless Nights

IT is always nights like these that will make me think a lot. I think about all kinds of stuffs, some good, some bad, mostly bad stuffs though these days… The good stuffs seem to be running dry in my life right now. Ain’t complaining, since I have my fair share of ups and downs like every single Dick, Jane and Joe out there. Just that this time, it seemed to last a wee bit longer than usual… I guess I will pull through it as usual, I’ve always pull through all this kinda stuffs, time will help me heal the wounds inflicted upon me. Slowly, but surely.

Well this post is a bit special due to the reason that I have never fired up my Windows Live Writer to start blogging before during sleepless nights like this. I guess, everyone have their firsts.

Besides that, this post is special because this is my first post to my blog ever since I have moved to Kampar.

A lot have happened lately. One of the most prominent and heartbreaking one that left a great deal of sorrow and a gap within the hearts of me and my housemates is the passing of Zero, our pet puppy. At this point of time, I don’t know if I should continue writing this, as the pain of digging our boy Zero here, a grave have inflicted some great deal of shocked and despair within me. Never have I picture myself digging someone a grave. I promised myself, this would be the first and the last time I am going to dig someone a grave.

The pain of losing something so dear and meaningful to anyone is just so great that no living thing should be force to go through it. And yet, it is happening right in front of my eyes, and I can’t do anything to stop it.

Despite the lack of expression when I saw Zero’s lifeless body, so blissfully lying on his favourite blanket in my friend’s room, while my friend weeping away, literally crying her eyes out. The ordeal is just so great for that split second that I felt some kind of numbness, so much that, I don’t really know what kind of expression should I give. It just hits you like a train. After much later, when I was digging the grave, I saw the face of my two housemates, with tears flowing down their cheeks uncontrollably under the vain light far away from them, that I told my self that I must be the stronger one among them, for I am the only guy in the house and I believe that I have the strength to help them carry the emotional baggage that is inflicted upon them. I know that I am no saint, but to get you guys through this painful times, I am available all the time for you guys to dump your baggage on me.

 

To my housemates,

I know it’s difficult now, having to lose something so dear to you in this short period of time. But no matter what life throws to you, you have to face it and accept the fact that it is no longer there anymore. Use your courage to help yourself. Give yourself a short while to be sad and then pick yourself up and continue walking. You know that they will be up in heaven watching you and giving you their blessings. Whatever doesn't kill you will only make you stronger. Be strong girls…

 

And rest in peace Zero… We’ll miss you.

Mooooovieeeessss

 Omg the sun is being so unforgiving again! I don’t mind working on my tan once in awhile(Can’t help even if I am unable to get tan right…), but dayumm its hot!

_______________________________________

Uhum…(clears throat) Sorry for the absence, here are some movies I’ve manage to catch lately. Some are masterpiece, but some are just downright boringgg!

The Reader (2008)

image

I must say, Kate Winslet’s performance in this movie is quite astonishing (she won an Oscar for leading actress). Set in post WWII Germany, about an affair with two very unlikely person. The Reader is also a story about truth and reconciliation, about how one generation comes to terms with the crimes of another.

 

Inkheart (2008)

image

I find this movie quite boring, but then, I’m not much of a fairy-tale fan either. So if you like fairy-tale, dragon slaying, saving princesses and whatnots, this might appeal to you.

Slumdog Millionaire (2008)

image

Makes me wanna Jai Ho!!! Very inspiring movie about surviving in a harsh environment that is India. People there will do anything just to survive, even poke out little kid’s eyeball.

Watchmen (2009)

image

Freakin AWESOME movie! Always love how 300 was filmed and this movie catches all the essence of 300. Plus omfg look at Malin Akerman as Silk Spectre in her oh-god-damn-tights, dayumnnnnnn!

Sex is Zero (2002)

image

A really funny Korean movie! Though it carries an important message in the end of the show. Good for kicking back and relax in the end of the day. Oh theres also a sequel to this movie called Sex is Zero 2, which I’m going to watch soon, so wait for it!

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

image

Everybody’s favourite X-Men is back! And now you can know how he got his oh-so-awesome claw from and his grudge for Sabretooth. Not only guys will enjoy the action and uber coolness fighting scenes, there is also plenty of eye candy for the ladies and the lady-like man too from buff up Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. Magnificent!

The Sniper (2009)

image

No matter what, SKIP THIS MOVIE! You can be bored as hell and wanting to watch a movie at the cinema, with no particular movie you wanna watch in mind, but the only movie left was The Sniper and you thought, gee, about people shooting at each other, it should be not bad… well STOP! You don’t wanna spend an hour plus sleeping the in the cinema or spend watching this god-awful hongkie movie which suck A LOT! Let me explain why it suck. First, the storyline SUCK BALLSSS!! The whole plot is so freaking predictable, it’s as if every single screen writer in Hong Kong is having a writer’s block, damn it, it’s just so freaking not creative even a 12 year old can write better than that! And second, the actors CAN’T ACT! Especially Richie Jen and Edison Chen! Well, I' am not saying I am a better actor than them, but damn, you guys are professionals! Go back to acting school or something, I know there are much better actors in Hong Kong, especially those from TVB soaps, so it ain’t an excuse finding half ass actors to film this movie! So kids, no matter what, tell your brothers, sisters and friends to skip this movie aight!

Allrightythen! That sums up most of the movie’s that is still quite vivid in my memory. Some are good some are bad, they are solely based on my perspective, so it may be good for you, but it’s just crap to me, like they said, one man’s charsiew (or is it siewyoke) is another man’s poison, or something like that, well you know lah! =D
