knock knock.
hello - i am back into activity again.
it's been a while since i'm online/blogging. mostly cause i've been busy mugging for my chem and bio tests and finishing my GP hmwk as well. and what with the late nights and unhealthy sleeping habits; it's a sad life but i chose this route and i'm gonna stick to it.
anyways, on to mre INTERESTING and UPBEAT thngs>>>
1) music gets the best of ME
big news first - frm a VERY EXTREMELY RELIABLE source/[s], i learnt that the 5 shaggy haired guys are coming back to SUNNY LITTLE ISLAND again. yes - it's THE CLICK FIVE. LIVE IN SINGAPORE AT SIS ON THE 1ST OF JUNE.
[GAH - JOEY JOEY JOEY!!!!! =D ]
the gd thng is that it's a holiday. =) the bad thng is that i think I AM BROKE. =( the neutral thng is that - IM NOT EVEN SURE WHETHER I WANT TO GO. =/
but it's funny how what i say tend to come true somehow.
im guessing that those 5 RLLY do like singapore. [or the girls AT LEAST.] and that kyle patrick is NOT liar. =P
i got 2 friends who are potential TC5 concert-goers. so that's sme food for thought and much to think abt anyways. although i doubt the tickets are on sale yet. perhaps arnd early/mid april. i'm guessing the tickets are going to be snapped up PRETTY QUICK. all the JENNY's in s'pore are sure to be the major buyers. [HAHA - NOT.]
okayy, now i'm going to test the theory again.
me CHANTS: JASON MRAZ. JASON MRAZ. JASON MRAZ. JASON MRAZ. JASON MRAZ. or JASON MRAZ TO INFINITY AND BEYOND. =P
2nd big news and most important thing and the highlight of 2008 -MAROON 5 IN LESS THAN 5 DAYS!!!!! [oh how i LOVE the number 5!!!] =D =D =D
i am more than excited. i am elated. ECSTATIC. HYPERVENTILATING. LIVING HIGH. =D
hmms, i seem to be running out of appropriate adjectives to use.
but that's besides the point. i'm going to be mugging this weekend to make sure that i can keep up with the sch curriculum. trying to make up for the time lost on TUESDAY 25TH MARCH 2008. [!!!!!] it's going to be SEVERELY hectic this coming tues. i'm not even sure if i will have a pile of hmwk waiting for me after tuesday's sch. and not sure whether i'll be home early enough to catch sme much needed sleep. =/
but all for the sake of ADAM's vocals. SIGH. X)
on a lighter tone - i DO HOPE THAT M5 IS AT TOP FORM ON TUESDAY. it's been such a long wait since whenever they came out. i'm hoping their song repertoire consists of both the 1st and 2nd album.
I WANT THEM TO SING 'SHIVER'!!!!! =D
as well as their bonus tracks.for the 2nd album though, i hope they sing all songs EXCEPT FOR track 10. anything but that song RLLY.
i hope they start with 'MAKES ME WONDER'. then end with a bang [THROW IN SOME EXTRA FIREWORKS] and sing 'THIS LOVE'.
just learned that one of my PAE friend's bro went to watch Sondre Lerche live. and he said that he was GOOD.
bring on the disappointment MANNNNN. =(
and i got one classmate who likes JASON MRAZ!!!!! this is the best and most wonderful-est news EVER. and she likes indie music so i can discover even more bands/singers.
FANTASTICABULOUS. =D
current music status >>> ever active in DL-ng and repetitive plays of MAROON 5 in prep of their ACTION live in this CITY.
2) life is "wonderful". with the inclusion of big inverted commas.
in terms of studying, im getting the hang of JC life already. it's rather tough but all you need is these few criterias:
CONSTANT REVISON + CONSTANT VIGILANCE = CONSTANT GOOD GRADES.
or that's how i think it works. but almost all teachers/tutors in SA emphasize this point CONSTANTLY.
>>> get the pun back there?
so i see that hard work is going to get me far and that means MUG MUG MUG.
btw, just went for tuition on sat for maths. for my sake and my future - which is INDEED A VERY GD INVESTMENT. although i think im sacrificing much social time, but HEY -i believe that all this will pay off.
THIS SOUNDS SO NERDY. =P
3) popcorn and nachos and a SUPERDOG.
i've watched 'STEP UP 2 THE STREETS' with ham and jyi [kacheng]. 2 days later, i caught a free 'HORTON HEARS A WHO'.
almost had to catch STEP UP twice which is SUCH A BORE rlly. i actually dislike watching movies twice in the theatre. i like the experience to be kept to a minimum for each movie, TYVM.
it was all thanks to my dear brother who wanted to watch it. so my mum and i went to suntec [cause the free tix i have are available at ENG WAH and that's the nearest for us.] booked the 7.30 show but -bro was still at jurong pt after his 'snow city' outing at 7 plus [HAHA SO FUNNY - yah right] and my mum and i just got halfway through FISH AND CO.
YIKES. =/
in the end, my mum changed the tix to HORTON and i got my wish. =D and my brother deserved what he got. =P and my mum enjoyed 'HORTON' and im sure that she will prefer it to 'STEP UP' anytime.
so >>> about STEP UP 2.
it was relatively okayy i guess. i dont like the lead actress cause i dont think she is rlly THAT GD a dancer. MOOSE is good and you gotta watch to know what i mean. most of their dance choreography is quite AWESOME though.
or SO I THINK IT IS.
storyline is pretty simple: girl likes dancing. girl has to move to another country OR get into the local prestigious dance sch. girl has a troubled background. girl meets boy who likes dancing. and FF the minor useless boring details, girl dances her way out of her troubles. girl and boy kiss. THE END. [this gets 2 and a half stars.]
and for 'HORTON', i thought it was good.
maybe not 'MADAGASCAR'-gd nor in comparison with 'OVER THE HEDGE' but it's pretty funny and watchable. i have always liked dr seuss though. and JIM CARREY IS THE STAR OF THIS SHOW. =D
storyline in 3 words: READ THE BOOK. thought that might sum it up for you. =P
it's going to be a 3 and 3/4 stars thng mainly cause jim carrey is in it and i've loved him in ACE VENTURA, THE MASK and BRUCE ALMIGHTY. steve carell isn't half-bad either, but he kinds of loses his magic when voicing the character. it just isn't like him in THE OFFICE nor EVAN ALMIGHTY. and definitely not him in DAN IN REAL LIFE.
i still want to watch DAN IN REAL LIFE anyways. i've always loved cartoons and i love a good comedy as well so i DEF recommend this. =) ________________________________________
moving on to what i havent caught and WANT TO WATCH.
BE KIND REWIND which opens today has jack black in it. i think the guy's a genius. =D
the story is abt ths guy named jerry and how his electrocuted/magnetised brain wipes out all the images of the movies in the movie rental store he works in with a gd friend. the owner wants to make sure that his shop is still in gd shape and he decides to rent a movie to watch. the guys panic, before deciding to make their OWN VERSIONS of the movie.
[FF]: the movie is a hit, ppl swarm to the store for MORE of their homemade vids and, I SAY, laughter ensues.
apparently they redo GHOSTBUSTERS, ROBOCOP and KING KONG. and i saw jack black and the robocop costume so i'm saying - CATCH THIS ONE. =D
the next one is the 2nd instalment of narnia, prince caspian. im thinking it looks pretty interesting and i like fantasy movies. BUT ONLY TO A CERTAIN EXTENT.
my friend, however, wants to catch RULE #1 for all the obvious reasons. but i'm not going to watch it. i need sleep and the last thng im going to do is kp myself awake due to dirty thngs lurking arnd. i say, they are called 'hantus' in malay right?
YOU GET MY POINT. ________________________________________
think VANTAGE POINT seems okay but usually, for such political-thrillers, i prefer to catch them in the comfort of my home. WHERE I CAN ALWAYS SWITCH OF THE TELLY IF IT SUCKS. and SEMI PRO seems like a basketball version of SCARY MOVIE. i guess will ferell is the only saving grace. but wont be catching those 2. ________________________________________
