Paranormal Activity + own room

Paranormal Activity was supposed to be THE horror movie of this season. Was waiting in anticipation to watch it. Sadly, it wasn't really that great.

Motion sickness. The shaky camera was annoying. Felt like puking.

Storyline. Quite lame and predictable.

But I have to give credit to it coz some scenes were HOLY SHIT CREEPY!!!

Like the part where she says "I think it's here. I can feel it breathing" and then you see her hair blown.

The part when she's sleeping, and suddenly the zha bor gets dragged on the floor and pulled out into the corridor.

The ouija board moving by itself, and catching fire.

The part where she wakes up in the middle of the night and stares at him.
...and my favourite part...

The zha bor says "Everything is going to be OKAY", and when she said 'okay', you could hear another deep nasal voice.

NAIS!!!

At each scene, my reaction was like WHOA SHIT!!! But looking at the overall movie, it wasn't really that great.

Still, for the effects, it's worth watching in the cinema. Of course everything isn't perfect, so just take it for what it is.

=========
I really want a single room. I want to be able to talk on the phone in comfort, to blast my music on my 2.1 stereo speakers, I want my own bigass study table, I want to be able to put my 19-inch LCD monitor to play videogames and connect my laptop to do work, and not having to clean it up even if my friends and family visit me.

COZ IT'S MY ROOM.

I love it how I have my own bigass room back home in KL, with my own toilet, my own queen-sized bed, my favourite rocking chair, a hugeass table, TV to play videogames, large enough to accommodate 5 people sleeping there, and can have TEH parties.

Well, I don't expect to get a room as huge as mine in KL, but for now, I just want my own single room.

Oh, and I want to be able to drive too. Have to wait until my parents drive down to Singapore, or until I go back to KL.

Been living in hostel since Sec 1. Been having roommates for 8 years. It's not that I don't like them (Many of my best friends are from hostel), but I just want to have my own space.

Now, when invite friends over, I needa get 'permission' from my roommate, check whether he doesn't mind. Of course he has a right to refuse, but you see, why do I even have to go through this added hassle.

My mum said if I wanted to, I can go look for a place on my own. I'm eyeing Rivervalley... but I don't think paying $900 a month on rental is going to be worth it. Right now, staying in hostel is really manageable... can tahan... It's just that I'm being a brat.

I can't wait for the day when I start working, get my own pay, choose my own house, have my own space, and don't let my mum worry whether I am living in a shithole or not.

In fact, how I wish that KL-Singapore intercity travel wouldn't be so long. Haha.

To say that I wish my family were living in Singapore would be going too far... Coz I know they would be happier in KL.

I guess we can't get the best of both worlds.

Badass!!!

Awesome shit!!!

November 10th 2009.

I guess I'm not gonna quit playing videogames afterall.

God Bless America for creating the xbox 360!

Gosh. You see an American suburb under attack. You see the International Space Station (presumably) being blown up. You see British SAS invading some castle.

Best. Shit. In. Videogaming History.

Ever.

Expectations

When I was young , I used to be very temperamental. Like a brat, I always argued with my mum. After that, I'd always feel damn shitty, asking myself why the hell did I even argue with her. Once I came to Singapore, I never argued with my mum coz maybe I just grew up. I certainly hated the feeling of making her angry.

In the past few years, I've had lotsa nightmares that I get into uber heated arguments with people I care, making them upset over what I've said and/or done. And I'm damn glad that it's only a nightmare coz it did not actually happen. Everytime after such nightmares, I'd be so happy seeing them, knowing that I did not screw up anything.

There were also several times when I got into heated argument with friends. The feeling of wanting to tell them off felt so.... gratifying.

Recently, I've found myself expecting so much.

But then I realised how petty I can be a lot of times. Mostly due to my own high expectations making me easily disappointed by their acts or omissions. No one owes us a 'duty of care', if I may say so.

And what the hell, why am I being so petty.

Friends are there to have fun with us, talk cock, share our experiences, complaints, and to keep us company. But when they are not there for us in our shitty times, we tend to feel disappointed even though they did nothing wrong.

I guess it's normal to expect so. When you're beaten down, it's not that you can't carry on by your own. Neither do you want sympathy. You just want friends to be there to understand what you're going through.

But it's selfish to expect people to do things for you. Being frustrated over things is just gonna make things shittier for everyone.

It's better to let go of certain expectations.

It's not worth sacrificing something valuable for just a brief moment of self-indulgence and gratification.

I don't want to see that look of disappointment on people's faces after I've said anything wrong to them.

=========
As I was typing this, my boss just told me how disappointed she is that barely anyone (but me) replies to her emails!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHHAHA

Jennifer's Acting

Stupid storyline. But cute acting by Amanda Seyfried, and even more awesomely scary acting by Megan Fox.

She look like an intelligent zombie from Left 4 Dead or something...
Caption: Succubus Nutcase crowned Prom Queen.

The best part of the show was the Kitchen Scene. Really some awesome shit. Jennifer just standing there in the dark, body all bloodied, smiling.

Wasn't able to find that photo, so this comes closest to it. Makes you feel like going up to her, hug her, and say "Don't worry, everything's gonna be okay..."

Caption: WARAO! Why you pour red paint on me?

The ending was too abrupt. Should've made Jennifer come back to life to fight off her friend. Awesome catfight.

Great Expectations + Greatest Vampire Movie Ever

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.

Yeah yeah some of you guys are gonna say 'Wow Paul is quoting from the Bible'.

Thanks to Kahn the Wise Man.

============
Anyway, I recalled that I had a freaking nightmare about the best vampire movie ever: An Interview with the Vampire (1994). Starring Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Antonio Banderas, and Kirsten Dunst when they were all younger.



AWESOME.

The feeling of longing, frustration of a damned life, adaptation... In my nightmare, I wasn't the victim of a vampire, but the vampire himself.

That nightmare caused me to wake up an hour before my alarm clock was to wake me up. Couldn't recall what the dream was about, but I just had an overwhelming feeling of fear and loneliness. Took me the entire day to recall what the dream was about.

How did I recall what the dream was about? Coz I wanted to watch a horror movie so badly, somehow I just recalled the best vampire movie I ever watched and voila, I managed to recall my nightmare.

I'd have to say it was an awesome nightmare though... Just as how awesome the movie was.

Loved the beginning. Loved the middle. Love how it never seems to end. Love the ending.

Rent it. Buy it. Do whatever it takes to watch it.

How do you know you're Singaporean?

You know you are a tad bit closer to being a Singaporean when:

#1 While driving, you feel weird seeing the other cars' number plates do no start with S and end with a letter, such as SXX 1234 M

#2 When parking, you naturally reverse park

#3 When parking, you think that those people who don't reverse park are weird

==========
Anyway, today I realised how easy Malaysia can just cross the border into Singapore to invade it.

Oh wait, here's another one:

#4 You know you are a tad closer to being Singaporean when you can imagine yourself being the pilot in a F-15SG attack aircraft bombing the hell out of Johor Bahru!!!

FLASH MOBS!!! AWESOME!!!

The Belgians had this idea of a flash mob, over 200 dancers from various ages to perform "Do Re Mi" from the Sound of Music.

It's freaking awesome!!!


Singapore caught up with the idea and did the same at Raffles Place just this Friday 23 October 2009, in between Chevron House and UOB Plaza, the grass patch above Raffles Place MRT.


The Japanese also did a flash mob act. Awesome.

:)

I've never felt happier in weeks.

======
Gosh, the above sentence sounds like some freaking emo secondary school girl who just heard the song 'I Never Had A Dream Come True' after something good happened to her.

But really, I feel happy.

K lah whatever...

Moving on to random cockster stuff.

Here's a geek tribute to 911.

iPain

My eyeballs hurt like crazy. I feel like gorging them out.

Sakae Sushi lights, bright sunlight, badminton hall lights, laptop and handphone screen, reading under proper lighting also pain...

...but not when I play xbox360!

When you're having fun, nothing is painful.

Hmph... that sounds potentially so wrong.

Anyway, here's some parody about Batman. Awesome performance by the Joker.



Grrr growl murmur bbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhunhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Translation: This video is awesome!!!

And here's to all my dear PC users



Get a Mac.

And gosh, I fucking hate FA.

Poker face

MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!
