New room

So, i have many of you asking me about my room and when am i going to post the pics up.
Honestly, if i weren't this insomic now, you probably would never see the pics unless you go to my sister's blog or somethig
But the photos she took of my room was when i was unpacking, so it kinda ugly ad messy.
Alrighty.
I took time to tidy everything up and with some vacuuming,
here it is!


this is my bed.
It is a rounded platform made of wood and covered in black suede
On the wall is a headboard feature made of soft cushiony sponge or something and covered in red pvc.
It extends all the way up to my ceiling.


So, here is my wardrobe and booksehelf
And you can see
Its in red and black again
The bookshelf was bought from ikea.
The side of the wall where my book shelf is is in clamshell grey if you take a harder look
The grey tone takes up most of the right side of the room


Over at the study table, the side of the wall is painted red again
and so are the legs of my table and my chair


Lastly, this is my hanging lamp.
It's damn pretty as the black flower details on the outer shell of the lamp is very intricate
I chose warm white lights which gives a slightly yellow glow as compared to the normal white light.
So whenever you enter my room, you just feel like chilling or sleeping
Definitely not a good place to study.

well, so this is my room.
Its not designerish or anything, but i love it for the fact that all these came from what i had planned in my mind from scratch.

Okay, im starting to feel tired now.
Nights!

Showin' How Funky Strong Is Your Fight


i love your outrageous coustumes
your sequined one hand glove
your shiny leather shoes
your moon walk
your random whoos! and ahhhhs! in your songs
and your over-used dance moves

i was really bummed when i heard the news of his death the first thing in the morning when i woke up.
Imagine waking up to that? Thanks caleb for the lowdown.
was looking forward to his comeback concert very badly.
Ask me to pick one of my favourite songs and i will so be caught in a dilemma cause all his songs are so damn good.
And how can we not remeber the moon walking crotch grabbing moves he uses all too many time but we never seem to get enough of.

Dear Michael,
i hope you rest in peace in heaven.
To me, you are one of the greatest artist of all time and you know that no one can take that title away from you.
You know, seeing your concert was on top of my to-do list? I am seriouslly wondering how it can be accomplished right now. Maybe next time i guess?
I am sure the world will remember you for your best like your chart topping hits and humanitarian effots.
Goodbye gloved one, the king of pop Michael Jackson
Thanks for all the wonderful songs
Love you loads
Miss you even more:))

over flowers? like jump over? or get over? i dunno.

finally done with the shift
i am realy digging my room which i will attempt to post some pics up soon when im finally done with packing.
One thing is that due to the miscalculation on the carpenter's part, my huge ass 52 inch tv i inherited from my previous house living room, can't fit into the designated space after they put the bed in.
So my tv is off to my parents room instead!!
BOOOOOOOOOO
nonetheless, its still pretty and extremely red

moving on, i am really surprised that the korean version of meteor garden- Boys Over Flowers is pretty darn good.
so much so, i am kinda hooked onto it.
although i seriouslly don't get the meaning of the title of the show at all


other than packing and eating or sleeping, i am practicaly glued to my laptop watching this show on youtube.
Only at episode 4 for a good half a day of viewing, so im still waiting for the plot to unveil as the show proceeds.

Dinner with the PESS peeps last night at newton food centre.
Kumar's treat because he won like 3k in his aussie triathalon race
But what is funny is that bulk of the 3k came from the casino instead.
Kudos to facebook poker to prep him for the real thing
Anyway, Happy Belated Birthday Mr Kumaravel T.


Sorry for forgetting ur birthday!
Pls go get facebook cause they give reminders to ppl!!
I hope you can finally stick to one flavour and make sure its a good flavour!!

okay. done with updating
saturday and sunday is the big race day.
im so gonna die.
hah.
but somehow, i couldn't care less anymore.
i am just waiting to jet off next sunday if everything goes well.
Get my tickets,
No H1N1 pls pls pls
Taiwan Taiwan:))

coke cold turkey: day 5

whatever you do, they will love you;
even if they dont love you they are connected to you till you die.
You can be boring and tedious with family,
whereas you have to put on a good face with friends.

from a small little book i received from someone.

i can only dream of the fizzy sensation on my tongue as the cold liquid enters my mounth.

Monday, June 08, 2009

guy that are waiting to date me except for the last one.

remember me telling you guys that ive been watching a lot of movies on my computer lately?
well, i decided to make a list of my favourite male leads cause well, im bored and i would like to know who are your faavourite male leads as well??
so feel free to comment on this post.

first of all, who doesnt like a hero?
from my list of my favourite males, i realised they all potray the character of some sort of a hero, making me all toasty in my heart
Dont judge me now, im know im the only one saying this out loud.
But dont you just wished you were the female lead in the movie sometimes??
hahah

1. Character: Edward Cullen
Movie: Twilight
Actor: Robert Pattison


Edward is a VAMPIRE
i know.. who wants a vampire for a boyfriend right?
but in twilight this bunch of vampires are not your typical cape wearing, coffin sleeping vampire
to add on, Edward is like super rich, stays in a mansion and drives a very nice sports car.
I like how he is super intriqued and portective over Bella and is always there to rescue he when she needs him- like miraculouslly appear!!
The thing is abt Edward is that he is a vampire and Bella is a human, so he is caught in this tension because he wants to drink her blood so badly but is in love with her. I just love it when a man knows how to control himself to protect someone he loves
So tell me why dont you like vampires again??

2. Character: Jack Dawson
Movie: Titanic
Actor: Leonardo De Caprio


I know! Yes, i watched Titanic
And more than once.
Jack gave up his life for Rose man.
He taught the poor little rich girl the real meaning of life and lead her out of her misery of the pretencious life she was forced to lead by her mother
Jack was very charming and also super protective over Rose. He is not rich and super poor but he enjoys his life as it is and isnt afraid of any obstacles.
I am loving his survivor spirit and how he lead Rose all the way to the top of the ship when it was about to sink. So smart.
Jack died in the end cause the plank of floating wood was two small for two people and and decided to let Rose have it instead.
How sweet?
I dunno. I just melt everytime i watch the film although its bloody long, i love how their romance just builds up on the very short trip on the ship.
Couple with Leo's good looks, Jack Dawson is on the top of the list for sure!!!

Side tracking, if you decide to watch this movie again, can you please count how many time they say each other's name? Jack and Rose.
Count it.
I dunno if its me, but i think the name calling thing kinda irritates me a little. They call each other's name in every freaking sentence.
Other than that, awesome movie.

3. Character: Achilles
Movie: Troy
Actor: Brad Pitt


Set in anciet grecian time, Achilles was know to be a very merciless warrior, killing every man that gets in his way without much trouble.
But in the movie, he actually died while trying to save Briseis the daughter of his supposed "enemy" which he was supposed to kill.
got shot in heel by an arrow.
I love this character becasue he was supposed to be the bad guy, but deep down he was actualy a good person, and he showed it by giving up his life to save the woman he loves.
That's like the epitome of sweetness
He was very suave also, as he didnt give a hoot about the king he serves. He was just a warrior at heart and hence he kills whoever he wishes to kill.
Why do all the good and cute guys have to die in the movies???

4. Character: Danny Archer
Movie: Blood Diamonds
Actor: Leonardo De Caprio


Its Leo again. I have to say he is my favourite actor of all time because of his ability to make characters come to life with so much convition.
Danny Archer is the bad guy.
He smuggles blood diamonds of Sierra Leon to amercian diamond merchants in the black market.
He finds a rare pink diamond and tries to get hold of it so that he can have a better life and get out of South Africa. He meets this american journalist who is super anti blood diamonds and is here to do a story on smuggling diamonds
Obviouslly they are at loggerheads, but in the end, he once again, sacrificed his life so that she could get her story and also helped a poor african man and his family break free from the choas of Sierra Leon.
Like Jack, Danny is super resourceful and is a great risk taker.
Super charming.
I think i just like Leonardo.
He acted really well in this movie with the South African accent and all going on. He was super convincing which is why i think he is one of the best actor of all times.

4. Character: Bailian of Ibelin
Movie: Kingdom of Heaven
Actor: Orlando Bloom


Bailian is the son of some favourite knight of the king of Jeruselem whom he died a while after acknowledging him as he took an arrow for Bailian in a fight.
Bailian was knighted by his father as soon he found himself takng over the job of his dad, being the king's right hand man.
The king's brother in law was the next in line to ascend the throne after the sickly king who was going to die of leoprosy soon.
The thing about him is that he was such a nuisance he kept wegding a war with the muslims whom the king has spent many years to maintain a peaceful relationship with in Jeruselem.
He killed the sister of Saladin who was the muslim king. And the war between the Christians and Muslims starts.
The muslim had many solidier.
Through the show you can see how Bailian prepared the city for war.
When there wasnt enough knights, he mass knighted every man in the city giving them alot of confidence.
He surrended in the end to protect the lives of his people in exchange for Jeruselem.
Saladin promised him that every christian will be safely moved out of Jeruselem.
Tale of a brave and wonderful knight. Loves.

5. Character: Sam Dawson
Movie: I am Sam
Actor: Sean Penn


Sam is a little mentally retarded, he works at Starbucks and has a daughter named Lucy Diamonds after his favourite band Beatle's song.
As lucy grows older, he found that his limitations is holding lucy back
Lucy on the other hand tries to appear not too smart infront of Sam, like reading Green eggs and ham everyday instead of a higher level Stellaluna as she knows he is "different from other dads"
The authorities soon found abt them and took Lucy away from Sam and put her in foster care.
Lucy often escapes back home just to be with Sam. The foster parents couldnt take it and wants to adopt lucy for good.
Sam found this lawyer to help him who was having her own family problems.
Together while fighting the case, Rita learns many things about true love from Sam- the last person she would think of.
What i find fascinating about Sam is that he is very simple minded, yet he makes a lot of sense all the time.
Vey touching movie about the love a father and daughter share.
Especially when the father is so simple, he just loves his daughter and people all around him for who they are.
Never judging them.
I wished more people like that exist in my world.

that concludes my list of male leads.
Please take time to wacth these films if you haven't
They are all very nice shows with alot of meaning.
Maybe except for twilight and titanic.
But just watch them for the handsome leonardo de caprio will you???
Leonardo is officially the new roger federer for now!!!
Until wimbledon that it
hoho:))

sweetest victory



congratulations roger baby!
your first roland garros title finally!!
who knew you'll only get it when you're ranked number two??
i cant believe it man.
you can tell his didnt believe it either.

Roger Federer played a damn good match
broke soderling in his first service already
he continued playing damn well until this stupid retarded man from the stands jump into the court and charged toward roger federer
he was drapped in a Spanish flag and was acting like some matador and roger federer was the bull.
he waved the flag over his head and even managed to wrap the flag around roger federer.
it took security quite a while before one of them pounced on the metador.



i highly suspect he is one of nadal's man with the spanish flag and matador thing going on.

anyway, after that incident, Roger's game did dropped a little.
he was obviously shaken a little
he didnt manage to break soderling in the 2nd set, but won the tie breaker
it was soon the third set, where he served to win the championship!!

I really hope he can keep up with this level of tennis that he is playing.
Can't wait for wimbledon!!
my house would be ready by then.

finals and enamel


roger baby is in the finals yo!!
played an awesome five setter against del potro who just couldnt last through the full five sets
went to harry's at esplanade with sarah and her bee, caleb and kong sing with the intention to catch the semi finals and have some great beer
but the place was too crowded and noisy that we changed venues when the first set was being played
drove down to shaun's ginourmouns house to watch the match in the end.

del potro played great at the beginning but in the end he was just no good enough for the fed express.
the only del potro supporter for the night mr ong kong sing kept teasing me whenever roger could play his shot.
but funnily, he began to quieten down as the match proceeded.

Finals later tonight.
im so gonna bring my pom poms out!
its now or never roger!!
go get your first roland garros win!!!!

*********************************************************************
moving on from tennis, taiwan's itinerary is kinda done up and its sounds like great fun
i just wish i could fast forward to the day i fly right now
skipping the packing and competitions in between.
im like super lazy right now.
i wanna skip training later in the late morning, but its training for a k4 race and it'll be super irresponsible for me to bail out on 3 outer people.
so i guess im kinda stucked for now.

went light shopping and ikea for the purchasing and sourcing of final furshings that wasnt built by our contractor
i look forward to the completion of my room actually
cause its gonna be one hell of a room in jacqueline's world
complete with a huge ass 52 inch tv and platform bed with a lot of my fav colour red in it.
yay!
and i have finally chosen my wall colours after being bugged by the issue for so long.
praise the lord.
i didnt think i would ever come down to a decision at all.
so im really happy right now.
oh
and i watched the other boleyn girl on HBO again!!
haha
note to self: drink less coke cause i can see the bottom part of my teeth thinning away!!
somebody stop me!!
i hereby give everyone permission to take away my coke/stop me from buying coke, when im with you.
no joke.
its seriouslly eroding my enamel layer.
dun wanna waste all those painful years wearing braces only to end up toothless
so dear friend pls save my teeth
deny me of any coke you see me gulping-even the coke light!!

okay.
i think i should go brush my teeth now.

sofa king bored

read out the title of this post and it'll probably summarize how i am feeling right now.
im just kinda bored at 3am almost 4 in the morning and this post.
merci marcus, for your little tutorial.
anyway, if vous is formal for you, what is the informal replacement for vous then? i only know vous as vous.
if vous is not vous then what is vous??

i watched tv the whole of today
first up, "the other boleyn girl" on HBO
it was a really good film actually.
It tells the story of king henry tudor and his many love affairs btw the two boleyn sisters.
through this film i actually found out that the mother of queen elizabeth I was actually executed for incest(sleeping with her brother) and treason- Anne Boleyn
After the show, i immediately went to google the boleyn family history which is pretty interesting and exciting stuff.
After the google i realised that the english royal family history is kinda screwed up and in a mess.

side tracking a little, results are finally out
GPA dropped a little
but im not really bothered by it actually
cheers to ppl who have done well based on your own efforts.
you know, taking pride in your own work is worth so much more than just getting a good grade through other means- if you know what im talking about..
and for those who havent really hit the mark, just work harder next semester
BUT PLEASE(s'il vous plait??) its the holidays now man.
lighten up and have fun! there isn't much you can do about your results now, so throw away your thinking caps and just relax

Next up we have roland garros.
4th round mathc up btw roger federer and tommy haas
roger federer won after losing the first two sets which is freaking impressive.
And before i forget.
i wanna note this down and remember it forever cause Rafael Nadal was booted out during the 3rd round of roland garros!!


picked a damn ugly piture on purpose. hoho

i am starting to believe in Kharma and that sorta stuff. Cause Nadal took away Federer's 5th or was it 6th consecutive win at wimbledon and now he's 4th consecutive Roland Garros title is up in smokes too!
Kharma Kharma! better belive it.
the king of clay has finally been defeated at last!
all hail the man who has done it- Robin Soderling
ooh ohh
and its so funny
cause its the french open, so the umpire converses in french while keeping score and communicating with the players and spectators as well
so its a super good time to sharpen the little french that i currently know.
im now very good with the numbers 15, 30, 40, 0, thankyou, keep quite please and etc.

So, it was roland garros all the way until 1245am when HBO repeated the other boleyn girl again!!
so, i thought, why not?
so i watched it twice in a single day

so, how bored do you think i am again?
you tell me man.
