funny video!

you will laugh yourself out

out of breath

Hi, sorry for not updating. But I shall now. Okay, first of all, I’ve changed group for the documentary thing. I’m in ah beng’s team now. We are going to discuss about premarital sex. i find it relaxing and joyful working together in this group because we have the same mindset and working along is not a problem. We came out with so much funny ideas and laughed all the way through the shooting session. Anyway I’m sure going to post the documentary up once we finished editing and honestly, the editing part is not as easy as you think. Now only I realized that editors for movies are going through a hard time editing, rooted in front of the screen trying their best to produce the best they can.

On last Thursday, OUR Club( which is the JPA sponsored scholars club) organized a Chinese new year party at the student houses. Although not everyone came but I did enjoy myself there, taking videos with my phone and interviewing people asking what is their wish for the year. And without a doubt, I got almost the same answer each time, “ I want o fly to Australia” or “ I want to fly to Germany”. However, there were a few that have a different wish on their mind. “ I want to get a husband”, “I want to marry before I fly” and ‘I want to be with someone”. Well, you guessed it, most of them who answered were girls. Hmm, I wonder are they really wishing to marry that soon? They were also some who ran away and avoided the camera as I was approaching them. It was funny. That particular moment I mean. Anyhow, despite the not enough drinks and curry puffs from IKEA( yes curry puffs), and also for the fact that I have lots of assignment queuing up on my desk, I certainly enjoyed my time hanging out with my friends.

There’s nothing much about college. Valentine’s day sales was okay. Prom ticket sales currently seem to be not doing that good. And each of the Student Council members needs to sell at least 5 more tickets, compulsory. Argh! But I shall try my best.

I’m not sure why but as time goes on, my efficiency level drops drastically. Every time during the first month of school or college, I’m able to be at par with all the subjects in terms of studying and revising but as I said for the subsequent months, my stamina will run low and I can’t catch up anymore. I was leaved behind and I’m running out of breath. Eventually, I will stop running. But now, I’m trying not to stop completely. Let’s just say I’m walking , then jog, and when I’m tired I walk again. The cycle then continues. But no more running. Maybe it is in me that I can’t run long distance. I never do.

Well I guess till here then.

PRom NIght coming!

Today is Thaipusam and I’m in my room with a running nose. It’s sickening when you’re sick. Few days earlier I was having a sore throat. Now this.

Okay, let’s skip the whole sickness thing. About the documentary, we changed the topic of what we going to film. It’s about cultural differences between foreigners and Malaysians. Since there are so many foreign students here, it would be convenient to interview them and know more about what and how different their culture compared to us. Are we doing something that is rude without us noticing it that clashes with the culture of others? or do the foreigners bring along their culture here that most Malaysians can’t comprehend? We would like to find out all these and hopefully we can learn more about how others think about us as Malaysians, how to be more tolerant to another culture and also how by learning another culture and to understand it will not only benefit Malaysians but the world. I think if all of us learn about these, war will not happen. Maybe. Who knows. But education can change a lot of things rather than violence, don’t you think?

Valentines day is around the corner and I shall be a very busy man. Well, now don’t get me wrong. I’m not busy giving out flowers or bring someone special to dine in an expensive restaurant, but I will be helping the Student Council selling and promoting all the stuff we have like cupcakes to students next Tuesday and Thursday. I also found out that I will be a walking billboard promoting at the main entrance of the college. Hopefully it will turn out to be a fun event for me, but certainly not an embarrassing one.

Prom night is also coming on the 20^th March and the event is not anticipated by the JPA sponsored students. Up to now, I’ve managed to sell 8 tickets only. Some said that the price is way too expensive for them but I’m sure they would like to go too. I mean it would be a great experience and you can add another memorable event in your history during college life. Well if anyone is still interested to go, please contact me ya( especially for KBUians).

join the prom night!!!

Till here then.

dragons on the loose!

Finally, after a one week holiday because of Chinese Niu Year, oops sorry, it should be Chinese New Year, I’m back in my hostel rummaging through my bags and piles of books checking whether I’ve finished my homework or not. Holidays are never meant to be holidays without holiday homework, don’t you think so?

Anyway let me talk about my third week of college in January and my Chinese New Year break. First of all, during that third week, nothing much happened except for a role play we did in class based on the novel BOY by Roald Dahl. Everyone did a great feat at performing except me. I’m a bad actor seriously. I’m terribly sorry for being the factor that made the performance of my group (me, mud and fadli) worst than the rest. I envy those who were able to perform well and brilliantly. When I watched them performing I almost thought they were real actors ( those who do acting for a living) . They do have the potential I must say. I can’t act and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s not what I was born to do for. Who knows? Okay now let’s continue, there were two winners and they were given a packet of liquorice bootlaces. Liquorice bootlaces are some kind of sweet that were mentioned in the novel and it is long and plastic-like. It even tastes like plastic. And if you look at the pictures you might mistook them for red wires and not sweets. However, it was an opportunity to actually taste something that is new in my life and that was a great experience :)

Liquorice Bootlaces

Apart from that, the groups for documentary were already divided. I’m in the same group with mud, fadli, atiqah and also syireen. After a brief discussion in the library, we came out with an idea to document about performing arts. Well, I am not sure whether we will discuss about “the life of a performer” or “performing arts in general”. We will sit around together and discuss more in depth about this. Hopefully, we will be able to make an exciting documentary that will not bore anyone.

I went back Ipoh with Ming Chai on Friday, 23rd of January, by bus. We reached around 9 pm after a long three hours journey because of traffic jams in the highway. Everyone was rushing back for Chinese New Year. Lights from cars were illuminating the darkness of the highway and to me it was a beautiful sight. The highway looked livelier.

My family and i went to my grandmother house for reunion dinner. She is a great cook and the dishes she made were really scrumptious, instantly feeding the famished stomach of ours. My cousins were there too and we spent time talking and watching television till midnight before we went back home and call it a day.

The first day of Chinese New Year was dull. Woke up late and just lazed around at home. No going over to relatives or friends house. In fact no friends did invite me to their house for Chinese New Year. but I’m not going to tell you the boring part of my Chinese New Year, I’m going to reveal something more interesting.

During the first day of Chinese New year, my grandmother went and visits her friend somewhere in Tambun. The house was filled with people. She was inside talking with her friend when she noticed chaos outside the house, just by the gate .The people gathered were shouting and pointing at the sky. Curiously, she went out along with everyone in the house to see what was all the fuss about.

Now, as she reached outside, someone shouted “there’s a dragon! I saw a dragon!” Hence, my grandmother looked at the sky and with astonishment she saw a shiny red and green body like that of a snake. It was beautiful she said. However, when she got there, the dragon head went into the cloud already. Some said they saw the head earlier. Then sensing there was nothing more to see, she went back inside.

My brother and I listened to her story with amazement. It is true? We were curious ourselves, being great fans of mythical creatures, we questioned her many times about how does it looked like. She said what she saw was not a rainbow because the long shiny body was in a snake like shape. An S shape to be exact. Wow! I was certainly baffled. How lucky she was. If she did see the body of the dragon, then it means dragons do exist? Furthermore, this dragon appeared not on any other day but on the first day of Chinese New Year, isn’t that a coincidence? I tried to search the net for any pictures uploaded about this dragon sighting but to no avail, there were no results. However I found out a video that report a dragon sighting in Sg. Lembing, Kuantan. I do find this video interesting and it certainly looked like a dragon.

Another video I found interesting:

Anyway I guess till here then and I hope I did made you wonder again whether do dragons really exist and if you found something or just anything related to this do inform me ya ;)

Invincible 2006

A movie that i would recommend to watch is ‘Invincible’ directed by Ericson Core. The movie is about Vince Papale, who is huge a Phidalphia Eagles fan and at the end of the story he got the chance to play with the team he is passionate of. The plot is interesting as the movie start off with how Vince got no permanent job but work as a bartender at night. His wife left him and filed a divorce. When things get so messed up, Phidalphia Eagles new coach announces that he will open tryouts for the team and Vince reluctantly try his luck. Soon after, he manages to get in the team and lead them to victory.

A normal typical sport movie you might say where every main character will win in the end no matter what sport they played. But i always love soprts genre movies. This is because as i watch i feel like i’m a part of them,like i’m the one who is in the story. Perhaps it’s because i’m a sportsman too. Whenever there are games or matches,strangely enough, my heart will beat furiously as if i’m playing on that very moment. Besides,I really enjoyed the moment when victory is achieved. Until now, i’ve never won any competition in any games and that’s sad. How i envy the movie characters, how they failed at first but emerged as champions later. When will i taste the moment of glory i’ll never know. But this movie is certainly a good one. Below is the link for the download and you can watch it for yourself :)

i’ve changed my blog layout if you notice. It’s about time now that my blog need a new face( well my face that is haha) .oh by the way i’ve posted something interesting in my academic blog. Do visit ya. till here then.

Australia the movie

Now that I opened a new blog, it’s kind of hard to manage two blogs at one time. I don’t even know what to write anymore. Anyways last Sunday I went and watch Australia. It was a nice movie with Australian scenery everywhere in throughout the movie. I can also hear more Australian accent since I’m going there in the future, it helps you know. At first , I heard a lot of speculation about Australia as a boring movie so I dare not to watch it, afraid of wasting my money. However, I was somehow obliged to watch it because I was told that for the next semester, I must write a movie review based on Australia for English assignment. However, what I heard yesterday was a different story. My lecturer told me that he will choose another movie to review on. How sad. Felt like I wasted ten bucks for nothing. However, looking on the bright side of it, I think the movie was worth every penny. Firstly, for ten bucks I get to watch a three hour movie. That’s long right? Haha. Secondly, I get to know more about Australian culture and I guess it’s also a good thing. Overall, I would rate the movie 7 out of 10 and this rating would only apply to those who would don’t mind watching long movies and also those who love nature( believe me you will see lots of nature, desert most of the time haha ) .

Nicole Kidman in action

Oh ya, my class were instructed to do a documentary and I still can’t figure out what should I do. Any suggestions mate? What topic would be nice to document about. I’m enthusiastic about this whole thing because I have a passion for making movies or something related to that. Just that I have no idea yet. Imagine, I fly to Iraq doing a documentary of a soldier life. Woah! Wouldn’t that be awesome? Well yeah it would, if I come back alive.

And another thing do you know any nice and new songs that I ought to hear? Would you mind recommend because it’s been ages since I listen to the radio and I’m like so not updated! Thanks ya!

I guess that would be all for now. Till here then.
