Quote of the Day

If you had to stalk the guy you liked, he probably wasn't interested in you to begin with!

(or something of that nature...)

- closing line from "All About Steve".

Yeah, the movie's been getting really bad reviews. But in its defence, I think there were a lot of really good points that were raised in it, only that they were executed very badly. Good points + bad execution = GIANT flop.

*sigh*

I really like Sandra Bullock movies... except maybe this one.

Needs Some Oiling...

Lol. No, I'm not implying anything dodgy. Just that in my case, when I stop doing something for awhile, I usually find it very hard to bring myself to get back into the habit of doing it regularly again. Take for example this blog - I stopped posting things for quite sometime and now I've become too lazy to put my thoughts to plasma! (I use the word "plasma" because obviously since I'm typing on my laptop, using the word "paper" would be highly inappropriate :p)

And so here I am again, trying to oil my chains so that they get cranking and stay in motion for a bit...

On a totally different note, I recently watched 2 movies at the Malaysian Film Festival here in Melbourne and I must say that the whole experience made me feel so proud to be Malaysian! The films were 'Talentime' and 'Muallaf', both by the late Yasmin Ahmad. When she passed away in July this year, I must admit that I could not for the life of me fathom what all the fuss was about - the Malaysian film industry had apparently 'lost one of it's brightest minds'. But now, after watching the 2 movies - Talentime being the perfect potrayal of Malaysia's melting pot of cultures, and Muallaf bringing up the issue of religious tolerance - I realise just how great a loss her death is. And 3 months later, I am grieving this loss.

1 week later, I...

  • Finally got my internet reconnected at the new apartment
  • Am loving the new aparment!
  • Made myself a little 'reading corner' in my new room :) (SK gave me the idea of converting it into a Wang Lee Hom 'appreciation corner' - which I'm seriously considering. Lol.)
  • Am still hopelessly infatuated with Wang Lee Hom... (as you can probably tell from the previous point)
  • Am direly lacking sleep and routine
  • Have yet to cook a proper meal in my new place
  • Was successfully vegetarian for 10 days. Yayy :)
  • Am frantically rushing my assignments due in the coming week :s
