WILD AT HEART

Boring...

Watched the interview with Mawi and Ina (Mawi's ex-girlfriend) last night. Mawi is quite reserved; didn't express himself much. I guess it's typical for stars to do that so to hide their privacy. Ina on the other hand is very honest, too honest I should say. There were lots of things, like the details of their relationship revealed, which obviously Mawi didn't want the public to know (he was waving his hands and clasping his hands, begging her not to tell). My conclusion: I still don't know why this interview was carried on. I theorised that Ina wanted to blame the media and the public for ruining their relationship. This just goes on to show that she still is in love with Mawi. Aih...

Today's movies are very boring. I've watched all of them. So now I'm bored. It's raining outside. But I stumbled upon a Korean tv series and was lucky to find that it's the first episode, "Princess Lulu".

Few more days left and I'm out of here. Tired of staying in an air-conditioned room the whole day...Ok, guess that's all for today's post.

My 2nd post in a day

This is my 2nd post for today. Hehehe... I ate Iban food for my dinner just now. It was so deeeeliiiiciousss!  It got my favorite: daun ubi. Ehehehe... When my mum and I went out to search for food, we saw the fat cat (the one I talked about earlier on) sitting rather proudly in front of the pharmacy. It is rare that you get to see the cat outside. I always consider myself lucky when I do see it. I should take a picture of it. Wonder what the owner might think! Hehehe. Ok then, gotta go. I want to watch Mawi perform tonight. Ciao!

Movies I've watched

I remembered the title of the zombie film I watched few days ago, it was "Shaun of the Dead." How I remembered it? Well, HBO is showing it again and I watched it again...I was pretty surprised though when I found that it is an independent film and thus won quite a number of awards. Good for them! At least it's something fresh.

The tv series "24" won another Emmy again; another digit to the 12 nominees the series had bagged. Which is totally cool since I love "24", keeps your adrenaline pumping if you watched it, especially with the countdown, it just adds to the excitement or suspense.

Yesterday, I watched "Higher Learning." The only movie that's very informative compared to a gazillion movies I've watched for the past 11 days! Whoa! I seriously need to get a life. =) I was excited to find that Tyra Banks also acted in the movie as Deja. No wonder I found the girl rather hot! Ice Cube also acted in the movie as a senior student in Columbus University. He acted in "Are We There Yet?", another movie I've watched last week. I realised that the longer I watched movies, I begin to spot actors who acted in one movie also acted in another. Anyways, back to "Higher Learning", I feel that I can relate to the story and the experience of an African American freshman, who gets tired of the system, not just the university itself, but also the whole of United States! How the racism in modern times is no more on the surface, but much deeper - the mind. Racism is in the mind...In the same level, or maybe lower, it's exactly how I felt towards M (an organistion I would prefer not to mention it openly). This movie, to be honest, opened my eyes and mind, and lessened the anger I've bottled up this past 2 years. I'm hoping that when I go to university next year, I would learn to be more open-minded and also develop a creative thinking. Kinda excited actually when I think about it.

Last night, I watched "Batman Begins". I wouldn't say I enjoyed it, but I do love Batman's deep voice. Hehehe. And also the car. Not the black 'tank' or whatever you called it. My mum said that Katie Holmes is not beautiful, after I told her that she's Tom Cruise's 2nd wife (no offence for those who're Katie's fans). I find her ordinary.

2 nights ago I watched "Entourage," apparently the new tv series in HBO. Frankly, I think it's the guy's version of Desperate Housewives. It's mostly about  4 guys who reside in Hollywood. So you can expect sexy people, beautiful people...you name it! So laddies, saddle up!! =p For me, I love to watch the cars, as usual...

My mum's course will stretch till night, so I'm stuck in the hotel room again, staring at the television. I think I watch enough movies to be a film director already; I seem to spot all the technical stuff involve in creating the dramatic scenes or the spooky scenes or the foreshadowing scenes etc.

Last week, or was it the week before, I was extremely surprised that Arnold Swarzeneggar is now a governor. Impressive! Yeah, I know you guys are knocking my head for only knowing it now. My mum told me; see, she knows better than me. =) I bet most of his voters are female! Wonder how old is he...he always look the same. Oh well, I guess now you can make yourself look younger than your age.

I watched "50 First Dates" too, twice! The story is really hillarious and I find it sweet that Drew's character still get to marry the guy who tries to make her fall in love with him everyday, because of her one day only memory status. I especially love the seal, it's very smart. I mean, how many seals could high five like that! =)

I'm going back this Saturday, can't wait to go to the zoo and the beach, if it's not raining. Ok ciao! And have a nice day or a lovely evening. Well, have to consider the different time zones. =)

Another day

We didn't get to move, I'm so glad. Otherwise, I won't be able to surf the net. I'm quite busy today so I'll just be brief. I have exactly 1 week here. Next Saturday, the whole family is going to the zoo. Wheeeeeeee.............................

I had a weird dream last night. I just want to forget it cos it's very disturbing.

A 'friend' sent me this message last night: What is the one thing that you always wanted to tell me but never had the chance to tell. Send this to all your friends and see what they say but first reply me...I'm waiting.

This is quite disturbing...I want to end this but the 'friend' just wouldn't let me. What am I supposed to reply? Quite a while for me to get the answer and eventually I replied "You are an interesting friend to have." Whew! Fortunately it was the right answer. Man, I think this friend is creeping me out! Should stay away from him.

What's Life

Today is another day. My mum plans to change hotels, so this is my last night here and that means this could be my last post till I go back home. I've just finished an artwork, my 5th, which consists of a flower, done in batik style. Now I'm running out of ideas on what to paint.

I watched a movie this morning, "One Last Ride". One of the actors is very familiar...he acted as the younger brother of Dean in "Supernatural". =)

Last night I had a terrible headache and I think I'm having it now. Think a fever is coming too.

A dear friend of mine sent me this: If you need me and there's a hundred steps between us...you can take the first step to get near me, and I'll take all the other 99 steps to be there for you. Very sweet of her...and now I'm posting it up so everyone can see. =)

Miscellaneous

Yeah, I know I haven't been blogging for quite a long while. It was because I couldn't access the internet, don't know why. My guess is that the lady at the counter doesn't want me to surf the net too much since they are the ones paying it. Hehe.

Nothing much happened really. Been watching tv as usual. Just now I watched a movie, starring Mel Gibson. Didn't catch the title because I didn't watch from the beginning. I'm not watching tv now cos it's a movie I've already watched, quite a boring one...forgot the title also, I think it's 'American...something'. Oh well, who cares. Anyways, I was about to say that Mel Gibson is a great actor because he can carry a very emotional story with such excellence. Not just this movie but also in 'Braveheart'. That's the only movies I know which starred Mel Gibson. He didn't act in 'Passion of Christ', but I must admit he is a good director too. I remembered crying throughout the whole movie, it's so emotional and it brings a whole new meaning to how much Jesus suffered for the sake of our sins.

Oh yeah, I've completed 4 artworks. I'm very pleased with myself because they are quite different from what I used to do, you know, watercolor and brush. For these artworks, I've used magic pens, which is kind of cool cos it makes my art looks so much brighter. Even my mum is pleased with my work. Cos usually she criticized about how cartooney my drawings are.  Well, if she's impressed, that means my art is really, really good. Hehe.

I know I've been saying bad stuff about Bintulu, but I must admit that Bintulu has very good road systems, could be the best in Sarawak. It's very easy you know for pedestrians to cross the road, since it's just one-way. Besides the road, I think it's quite a quiet place. Yes quiet, but not peaceful. Since my hotel room is located at the top floor, I could see everything. At night, you could just count the cars that passed by. No wonder, the peole here look at strangers one kind.

Oh man, I'm so hungry. Didn't eat lunch. Hmm...I'm craving for KFC chicken. I hope my mum would want to go to a fast food restaurant for dinner. Hehe.

I read someone's blog just now. 69whisper. I read about 'Which Tree Do You Fall From?' And I fall from a maple tree. Hehe. It says those who fall from the maple tree has an independence of mind. And is "no ordinary person, full of imagination and originality, shy and reserved, ambitious, proud, self-confident, hungers for new experiences, sometimes nervous, has many complexities, good memory, learns easily, complicated love life, wants to impress."

Let me disect to you one by one to see whether this is true for me or not:

No ordinary person- I agree I'm quite special. An empathetic person, quite chronic type. I could feel or rather, internalize the pain that someone else (applies to animals too) is experiencing. And this sometimes posed as a problem because I felt responsible for their pain and always end up frustrated for failing to ease that person's pain.

Full of imagination and originality- Yup, that's correct. I just love to daydream. Daydreaming is not a bad thing actually cos when you dream, you'll come up with new ideas. But my ideas are not the scientific kind, sadly. I'm more to the artistic side.

Shy and reserved- I definitely agree to that also. When I was little, I was extremely shy. I cried at the sight of Santa Claus. Hehe. If it's a clown, then it's a different story cos some people are scared of painted faces. =) Being reserved I guess comes with being insecure with myself, with my capabilities.

Ambitious- Oh yeah, I usually set very high goals for myself and would eliminate anything that blocks my path, so to speak. When I want something, I become obsessed. It's bad if you're too ambitious cos someone might get hurt. Or in extreme cases, get killed because of your drive.

Proud- I'm definitely not snobbish or selfish or very fussy; I can make do with what is already there. But I do have a sense of pride in myself especially when I achieve in something that I thought I couldn't do. Egoistic? Sometimes. It's a long story why I have to be egoistic, it's not that I want to, but I have to.

Self-confident- I don't whether this has the same meaning as self-esteem. If yes, I should say it's just average. Which is why I'm working on that now during my gap year by trying to find something that I'm good at.

Hungers for new experiences- Definitely. It runs a long list. But one problem, I'm quite shy. This often gets in the way of trying something new, but not something outrageous. I should say that the Genting trip, the airport trip (only some of you would know what I'm saying) and maybe more had made my past 2 years a very interesting one. All thanks to Elaine, Allison and Ee Lin. =)

Sometimes nervous- That's true. Because I think too much or maybe I expect too much of myself often makes me afraid of not able to fulfill a task or a responsibility.

Has many complexities- Like I said before, I think too much of what others expect of me, I become confused of what I really want to do with my life. Which also explains why I daydream a lot. And also why I'm sometimes called a deep-thinker or a worrier. =) I'm lucky that I have my family and friends to help me chill.

Good memory- Let me narrow this down. I easily forget names, but I usually remember experiences, every detail of it. People are usually surprised that even such a small thing like that I would remember, sometimes it surprises me too.

Learns easily- I guess if I put my whole soul and mind to a certain task, I could do it. It depends on whether I like the task or not.

Complicated love life- I guess not having one makes it complicated? =)

Wants to impress- Yep! All the time. Hehe.
