Schoolwise

I can't remember. I like being busy though. And I think I might start to do drabbles everyday once we hit the 100 day to O level mark.

Issueswise

I am not conceited enough to even consider that I am the only one with issues. A glance through the msn contact names can vanquish that thought in an instant. (No seriously though, every alternate one is lamenting the screwiness of life)

However, I will appreciate it if the drama department would quieten down to a dull war roar. Constantly resisting the urge to tell my brain to shove it isn't working for me.



Yaywise
This is tough.

1)Thank you Alvinology for nominating me for the Omy blog awards? Yep. Although it was strange to have the results told to me through phone with this dead sounding caller operator.

Caller: Tryflydie?
Me: I'm sorry?
Caller: Hespiria?

See, there is something disconcerting when your virtual life crashes with the one in which you are currently breathing in. Also, who the hell dials a number and calls the person by their user names immediately.

2) I've been reflecting on it a lot and thus I've come to the conclusion I must be eternally grateful for the friends that I have. Not so much for the sake of nostalgia (too early) but you know for the amount of karma damage I've done, it's almost a miracle that I do have them.

Also must stop judging people, NO ONE IS A CHARACTER FROM A STORYBOOK. But then it's just so fun.

Dadwise
Because my father is so into the whole media/network/exploiting the Internet shebang, he now has his own blog.

Which is awesome because he promises to be the most comprehensive guide to healthy chicken rice. How many healthy chicken rice blogs do you know?


Otherwise

This is as personal as it every gets. Categorized.
Floozy.

"...and there may be people in the world who look exactly like us."

I think there might have been something before that hence the ellipses.

I couldn't hear my sister over the din of my own thoughts anyway. Apparently I find the solution to the Area of Triangle ABC/ Triangle BCE just that much more compelling than imitation me(s?) in China.

"...and all those people are Dopplegangers. So-"

To hell with vectors.

"Wait, aren't Dopplergangers like your evil twin or something?"

"Yeah, they are but there are so many copies of you so you can't all be evil so some are good and some are bad," she explains.

"Huh."

"People are all shades of grey," she says sagely. I believe I have caught a glimpse of wisdom in her eyes.

"Although, I'm pretty sure you're the evil one."

Oh, just a trick of light.

Endlings

One last song before we wake before the sun. It's a full moon tonight and I suppose we had better say goodbye.

The Weepies, I like their older stuff better( new album last month) but still good. Yeah, still good.

Workwise

Between doing actual work and losing my mind I think i've already blurred any distinction to what I'm stabbing.

Thus, the piece of paper with classic scribbles on is symbolic of everything I've written on for the past two weeks. You know, kill work before they figure out a million different difficult ways to kill you.

Quotewise

People trying to be funny are never as funny as people trying to be serious and failing. The laughs have to seem forced on unwilling characters by the logic of events. A man wearing a funny hat is not funny. But a man who doesn't know he's wearing a funny hat ... ah, now you've got something.~Roger Ebert

Roger Ebert, American film critic, first film critic to win a Pulitzer Prize for Criticism.

Sometimes, its best not to forget the important things in life.

Like the fact that people read from left to right.

Oh well, here's to the blog who is taking it's first steps towards a flash integrated website!

In other words, moving pictures!

Various improvements need to be done I think, maybe putting my posts on the left instead would be a start. Too lazy for it now.

Secret Files of the Community Service Cru





Riff Raff

Clearing up the desktop and there are too many uncompleted projects. Which I suppose I will complete.Eventually.

Here is one entitled Project Dance.



In order of appearance: Me, Zhu Wei, Jia Mei, Myra, Abigail

This was made when Abigail was crushing on another Korean star. Many moons ago.

Fun, there were suppose to be a lot more people in this video if i completed. No one looked close to their real counterparts though. In fact, i think it would make it even more hilarious if these people were real.

Oh, well. It's funny enough as it is.

More tomorrow. Schools out already.

2 small Important Announcement

Sometimes, its good to be reminded that there are indeed holidays despite being constantly washed in fluorescent lights and a never ending sea of cement.

Thus, for shows that need love they now have moving banners!

See, I'm not watching this online because I don't think I'm helping the 'save myopic children' cause. It's a great show, click on banner for summary.

There seems to be a growing(?) trend towards tv series with fantastical elements. A reflection of society I suppose- Create a horrible reality, adopt escapist attitude and tune in to Channel ~ for an all new episode of 'what if possibilities'!

Or maybe Lord of the Rings got tired of their playthings.



Best thing since sliced bread. Nuff said.

A random event

There is such a thing as good comic timing in reality.

"Haha, look I will bounce this ball down the treacherous slope of DOOM."said the little sister, or maybe it was "Shiny things."

I'm really just paraphrasing.

The ball bounces, like we haven't already announced gravity as public enemy number one. But you know how it likes to throw it's weight around. The ball eventually bounces off the slope and into the car park.

Which is my cue for a mocking rendition of my sister's lost ball.

That is till the end of the slope where a random stranger produces the same pink ball in the hands and asks "Is this the ball you're singing about?"

I don't blush.


What I learnt
My mother refuses to teach me Chinese. She claims that the Chinese is horrendous here and she doesn't blame me if I didn't get it.

Which is great. Instead of just being bad at it, I can now adopt an elitist attitude and move to China.


A small Review
My first Summer Movie 2008 was Prince Capsian.



In a nutshell: Less talking animals, some cool one liners, not dark.

The first movie was forgettable but this one was fun. After watching 5 (or 10)Harry Potter movies, a summer movie shot under actual Sunlight is a welcome relief.

The Pensieve Children are good as a whole but not so much when broken apart. Ironically, it's Edmund (Skander Keynes), who is clearly underused and has the least lines who delivers the most memorable performance. What I mean to say is, a foolproof way to grasp attention is to stick a sword into the Snow Queen.


Prince Capsian (Ben Barnes)is bland, I suppose looking nice in yellow tinge and full blown up billboards was the only requirement for the role.

I went in the movie expecting to have loads of fun mocking Prince Capsian's accent for laughs later on only to find him forgettable. Instead, I mocked tree speak.

Also, Everything is about to change? No shit, Sherlock.
