New craze
Friday, January 30, 2009
Hi people! I'm starting my job on coming Monday!!!
So happy... Can finally get a job...
Life's like that. You don't work, you don't have money to play.
If you work, you don't have time to play...
So in my few days of freedom... I'll like to share my new craze... NAIL ART!!!
here is my two first attempts... Please leave your comments regarding them!
Those aren't my feet by the way...
Another thing... I just find the Peranakan styles so GORGEOUS!! Not because of the Channel 8 show little Nyonya but they are so pretty and exquisite!!! Don't you all think so too?
Clouds are pretty too!!! They are like giant magicians of nature! Sometimes, when you're bored... looking at the different shapes of the clouds can just entertain you for hours! I even once saw a panda up in the sky... But i lost that photo together with my old phone...If not I'll share it with you guys... Sometimes, the image don't show up immediately... BUt it may appear different other days when you look at it!
I love to go around taking photos of the nature...It's so beautiful... Here are some of the cloud photos i took.
I feel that this particular one looks like a alien! Don't you all feels so? The small hole in the cloud looks like an eye...

My favourite contestant is 李冠志... He got the talent, he got the voice, and he also got the face!!!!!
Yes... I was like staring at the screen when he first came on... And i was watching with my friend, so when he ca,e on, my friend was like, "Eh! Your type Sia!" And then ashe saw ,e staring, and she added, "I see that you've noticed." Haha...
I LOVE his dressing sense, and its exactly the type that will make me go jelly-leg... Sort of a casual suit with elaborated accessories, exactly the kind of look I think guys look GREAT in...

Happy New Year
Friday, January 2, 2009
Happy 2009 everyone!!!
I bet that LOTS of people will get married on 9th September this year!... Lol...
How did you guys spend your past two days?
Well... My pre-new year and new year were spent at my aunt's house.
Being a nurse.
Taking care of my grandparents so that she can go get a breather.
Really... The elderly can be so cute! They can ask you a question, then forget that they ask you the question and ask you the question again in just a few minutes. My grandmother does that all the time, but she rephrases her questions.
1st Try: "Do you need me to sleep with you?"
2nd try (in just 5 minutes): "Do you need some one to sleep with you? I can sleep with you!"
3rd try: "If you can't sleep alone, i can sleep with you!"
4th try: "Maybe you don't dare to sleep alone. Want me to come over?"
5th try: "Do you dare to sleep alone? Maybe..."(at this point i interrupted and said it was REALLY okay)
See? I just LOVE my grandmother!!!!!^^
Then this morning, just when i board the bus home, i heard my card beep once instead of the usual twice. Maybe it was because i didn't celebrate the new year, so it didn't hit me until then that it was 2009, and I am officially out of the "beep beep" group, and has joined the "beep" group.
Goodness me...
So that's it!
A new year...
A new start...
My new year wish is that there will be a ceasefire in Gaza real soon, so the people there can enjoy the start of the new year 2009.
My second wish... Get good enough grades for A's so i can get into my dream course, Psychology in FASS, NUS...
Sigh... kind of tough actually...
Have a great year everybody!!!

Although he is really mean, he's true to Lily Evans to the very end...
I like his dedication in love,
And how he played double agent.
As an extra note, I love him even more when Alan Rickman was depicting him...
He's really a great actor as he manage to portray Snape as some more even more interesting in the movie.
His scene though short, are always captivating...
Alan Rickman has a charm when depicting Severus Snape that makes it almost impossible to move your eyes away when he comes onto the screen...
His every movement gives out elegance, true to his name as the Half Blood Prince...
Alan Rickman did a great job with all the expression...
Even a cold expression that Snape always wears on his face, there's a lot of emotions going on in his black eyes...
His voice is eerily soothing...
LOVE YOU SNAPE!!!!!!

Corpse Bride
Wonderful storyline, nice clash of colours and out of the world imagination put to work.
I love the songs, I love the bride (I believe she was named Emily), the groom Victor, the spiders in the underworld and the maggot in Emily's eyes.
The songs are catchy and meaningful, just like the Omppa Lumpas' songs in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
The way how Victor went from being afraid of Emily to falling in love. The way he went from wanting to escape from the Land Below back to the Land of the Living, to how he could bear to leave.
The way the spiders put life across in the song "Tears to Shed" when Emily was heart-broken that Victor had lied to her. "Everybody knows that's just a temporary state, which is cured very quickly when we met our fate!" the spider sung when Emily said that she couldn't compare to Victoria who "still breathes there".
I especially loved that part where Emily sacrificed herself so that the man that she loves, Victor, could be with a girl "worthy" of him, Victoria.
There's only two things I didn't like in the movie
Victoria, and the fact that Emily turned into hundred of butterflies after she sacrificed herself for Victor...
Eww... I almost screamed out in fear when the hundred of butterflies appeared on the movie screen, looking all too ready to pop out of the screen all thanks to 3D technology...
Hotel Rwanda
This is a movie based on the true account of one of the most horrifically ugly events in recent history, when the Hutu extremists of Rwanda initiated a terrifying campaign of genocide, massacring hundreds of thousands of minority Tutsis (who had been given power by the departed Belgian colonists), while the rest of the world looked on and did nothing.
The truth factor was what make this movie really attractive for me. The touching effect of the idea that the main character Paul was able to display such courage in the face of adversity just multiply with the fact that this was an true account of a great man whose couragous acts saved many others.
When the European guests and staff were all flown away from Rwanda, all that were left was just Paul Rusesabagina and a couple of the local staff.
Not only was he able to think fast on his feet to think of ways to save all the lives that lies in the very hotel that he lives in, he did not give up hope when people whom he trusted to help them disappointed him time and again. The local police that Paul always worked with no longer wants to be involved in helping to save the many refugees that the hotel was putting up. The rebels threatened to enter the hotel at any minute, everyone was scared out of their wits.
The UN did nothing to help but just took care of their own Euporean brothers and sisters, leaving behind the helpless refugees in a dangerous situation. With the backing of the United Nations gone, Paul and his many refugees found themselves to be danger constantly. Paul was only left with a mind and no military backing to work with. In the movie, he made used of human sympathy to try to get people in helping them. He requested individuals in the hotel whom had contacts with influential westerners to call them up.
As quoted from his lines, "Call them up, say your goodbyes to them. And when you say goodbye to them, make sure that you make it sounds like you are reaching out through the phones to hold their hands. Make them feel that if they let go of that hand, we will die. We will SHAME them into helping us." The tatic worked and soon, help arrived from the United Nation.
Overall, this is one of the few shows that can get me crying almost through half of the show. And if you had watched this movie before, personally, I feel that the most impact-ful part of the show was when Paul and his staff were driving in a foggy area. The ride suddenly turned very bumpy, and Paul said, "Oh my, you have driven off the road!" HIs companian replied that, "I'm very sure I'm still in the road!" And Paul frantically answered, "Stop the car! You are going to drive us into the river!" But when he got out of the car to investigate, he came to realised that they were indeed still on the road. HOwever, the road was now littered with the bodies of the murdered Tutsis. They were actually driving over the bodies, that was what made the ride very bumpy. The whole impact of the scene was terrific.

People always say Scorpios are very mysterious
I agree
Scorpio THE SCORPION- the sign of Transformation
Scorpio's are intense and have an ability to wait a very long time before they take action to put right a wrong
Scorpio are known not to forgive or forget easily- Someone ho had been in the war path of a scorpion is probably off somewhere still licking the wounds as this particular star sign is notorious for their fiery temper
Learnt enough about Scorpios? Here's my favourite is the following:
Scorpio never forgets a gift or a kindness, and it's richly rewarded. Conversely, he also remembers an injury or an injustice, but there are different ways of reacting
The eagle will crush the enemy so the enemy learns never to hurt him again, win the fight, and leave the defeated to go his own way
The deadly nocturnal scorpion will first sting, then plan destruction, then sting again. He's not content with merely evening the score. He must totally destroy the enemy, or at least top him
The typical scorpion stinger will lie awake nights figuring how to get even. These scorpions are seldom content with forcing the shoe on the other foot to teach enemies how it feels. They glue the sandal on with cement
Scary huh? Now you know not to step on my tail...HEHEHE...^^
sometimes people aren't going to trust you,
and it may be for no reason at all.
sometimes, people just judge you on what they think you will do,
on who they think you are.
and there's really nothing you can do about it.
but just remember one thing,
they're not cheating you, they're cheating themselves.
