spiderpig: (FYI)
If there's any reason why I'd get the Wii (besides the impending Jedi game) it'd be this.

COME ON Wii-ZANPAKUTOU!!!!!!!!!

You know, if the haze doesn't abate, we can have a new IR and its selling point woudl be something like:

"Want to enjoy the unpredictability of getting lost in the Singaporean version of English Fog??
Want to discover the joys of lung cancer and eye irritation?
Get stoked and choked on our new Integrated Resort! Integrated with the nation's incorporeal wonder: HAZE!
The Haze Hotel incorporates the best standards of Haze (PSI:300) in the comfort of your hotel room!
Swim around in a haze-pool and enjoy our trademarked HAZE-lnuts."

Okay, I'm getting carried away here. Hurhur.

I spent 8 hours in school devouring a week's worth of Origins of the Cold War and a touch of Blake (sponging off some critics) in the freezer of a library and the comfort of my HD-201s. I can't believe I slipped behind that much for History.

What am I saying. I know, and believe what I'm lagging behind for fucking history. Though, I just need to refresh my mind on the content and question interpretation-styles (because I've got the skills down pat). But that doesn't give me an excuse to swallow a supposed week's worth of work (ALLITERATION WORRR) into 5 hours of reading and reading and reading. Okay I'll like, go study more on history tonight. And Blake. Today shall be NO ECONS DAY. Arrrrrrrrrrgh. Why am I such a retard? ;________;

So I spent the day studying with Mindy and Jiawen, after having a consultation session with Mrs Sng. zomg she keeps on talking about sex. Not that it's bad or anything - just disconcerting. Not exactly what I want to hear when I wake up in the morning. Still, it was good. Looking forward to the consulatation with JTan tomorrow. Not the 8am PC tutorial though.

i'm being a bitch here. )

zomg. Princess Hours is quite a lovely show indeed! I never thought I'd get into a Korean Drama, what with all the crying and more crying in most of their shows. ShinxCaijing is like the best tsundere couple evar. I can't believe I'm faithfully watching this - someone shoot me.

Next up, is the best forum letter I've ever read.

Taken from the Straits Times

. Dead man's shoes - about revenge;

. Silk - about spirits;

. Death Note - about death;

. The Departed - a crime drama;

. Wet hot sake - about sex, sleaze and sensuality;

. My Summer of Love - more sex and sleaze.

The other movies are about inconsequential events. These are time-wasters and sad to watch:

. Talladega Nights - about brainless and crazy people with fast cars;

. World Trade Centre - a disaster;

. Rob -B-Hood - no theme.


For the bolded parts: no shit Sherlock! I wonder why would Death Note be called Death Note if it didn't have an ounce of death in it. And wow, thanks for guessing that the WTC was a disaster. Is there a disaster occuring in your brain?

A movie that is worthwhile watching would give hope to the viewer about the meaning of life and its purpose.

A good movie should result in stirring a person's mind and heart to do good for society. It should focus on wholesome family values of love and care, and respect for the elders and the government.



While I can't say much for the rest of the movies without blatantly posting spoilers and screaming out rather obvious themes and attempts at deep and dramatic motifs (Death Note to me, is like a whole Machiavellian movie in essence hur.), IS "WORLD TRADE CENTRE" REALLY SO USELESS? Sure its probably boring to sit in a theatre and watch two men beat the odds of dying in a pile of rubble against them (mind you, it's like a whole building's worth of rubble) and emerge alive after an ordeal that even a cynic like me would say "you've got guts and spirit" to. No really, is it really unwholesome to see these guys attempt to portray heroism at its most down to earth level. Oh wait! Let's condemn their awesome effort to survive and not give and up just DIE. WTF GEORGE LIM?!

Note how he added in "respect for... the government". OMFG?!?! Yes, movies like "I Not Stupid", which you recommend, certainly does entolll us to support the education system that the government system has created for us (IT HAS LITTLE BOYS KIDNAPPED AND DISCRIMINATION FOR GODSAKE.). Let's not forget how it shows us how meaningful life in Singapore is.

How should we rate a movie for its value? We should not give ratings to reflect its popularity based on violence, crime and sex, but instead focus on good values such as kindness, gentleness, love, peace, goodness, faithfulness, self-control and joy.


Let's all go watch Finding Nemo now. HEY WAIT A SECOND. WE CAN'T. WHY? ITH AS DEATH YOU KNOW. GEORGE LIM THINKS THAT DEATH IN MOVIES ARE BAD BECAUSE HEY, THEN WE'LL REALIZE THAT LIFE IS MEANINGLESS.

HEY LIT STUDENTS LOOK AT THE REFERENCE TO HOBSON'S CHOICE. WON'T MS CHUA BE PROUD? THAT LIT IS SHOWING UP EVEN IN FORUM LETTERS?

Hhaha, I'm evidently, am a vindictive fool.

But the infamous gssq has a brilliant parody of the letter. Thumbs up.

EDIT @ 12am: ... I'm feeling... strangely deflated all of a sudden. Like the whole Offred-ian inflation deflation moments. This song sadly, suits the mood perfectly. I just need whisky.
