Nothing is ever really only about you.

ALLKPOP

2009-10-21T05:00:00.000-07:00

So, recently i've been crazy about kpop. All i do is go to allkpop.com to find out about korean pop star news or youtub-ing and watching live performances and variety shows from korea. Above are 2 of my favourite pop groups. They are SNSD/Girl's Generation and SHINee. The fact that i'm so into them is because it's been a very long time since i saw idols/celebrities that were almost unreal. They aren't like LA stars, when you watch them you feel their pain and all. Korean idols make you forget about your troubles and worries and you just go into a new world that's filled with fun and eyecandies.

Unknowingly, ive created a virtual world. A world to hide in because the world i currently live in is too ugly. People are too scary. Unlike the idols, their whole lives are about training and performing and doing well on the stage and being unreachable, the real world has so many more things to worry about.

It's bad but it's a world i rather stay in.

Back, Baby, Back.

I have no idea why, such things always happen to me. I guess i'm the one with the problem. You know, there are people who tell you that they like those who are straightforward. They, are definitely lying. Who in the world actually wants to hear things that are hard on the ears? Like how ugly your face is, how fat you are or whatever is wrong with you. They only want you to tell them the good stuff so they will be happy. I should start learning when to shut my mouth and start complimenting people, maybe they will like me more. The truth is and will always be ugly.

I gave, wanting only love in return but i forgot love was the hardest thing to give.

Hello

2009-09-12T02:46:00.000-07:00

Seriously, this world is filled with too many fucked up people. In fact, i think i'm one of them. These people should seriously just drop dead and die because the world will be such a better place without them.

I really don't understand how people can have so much confidence. It's like they don't have any mirrors at home, they don't know how to look into it and see the ugliness that's there.

I have Nothing, nothing...............

2009-08-23T08:05:00.000-07:00

Share my life, take me for what i am.

I so love the song I have nothing by Whitney Houston lah.

I keep telling people that stressing over their problems is really dumb because life is filled with problems and if we keep stressing over them then we would be fucking our lives up won't we. Nothing is too big, you still have your life and it's the most important thing. We fall, we crawl, we learn new things. Stress is something you give yourself. Nothing cannot be handled.

Don't make me close one more door, i dont wanna hurt anymore,
stay in my arms if you dare or i must imagine you there.

You never fail to make me smile

2009-08-11T11:24:00.001-07:00

Goh Jia Qing :D
You know i still love to call Your name. heh.
I know you've been
trying your best to make
everyone a happy man
but I wish you are one
too,hoh. Thanks for
everything. & I love You
deepest! with love,
sy

You know i love you too. :)

The Past

2009-08-10T07:26:00.000-07:00

The clock is ticking, the dogs are barking
i'm sitting on my sofa thinking of you
the times we had fun
the times we get drunk
the times we ran around the summer park

we didn't care if the sun came down,
cause it's just the two of us
and the whole world felt like our playground
but now, that's all gone

Hush Hush

2009-07-27T04:17:00.001-07:00

Sometimes, less is really more. If you do too much for someone or something, it may actually backfire. So, learn your lesson and don't ever do it again. I just saw the biggest hypocrite ever. The funny thing was, i heard the hypocrite calling someone else a hypocrite. Oh my goodness, i so nearly laughed.

Maybe it's a sign, they gave you a sign ; It's time to leave.

In the end, it's still so lonely.

2009-07-18T10:02:00.000-07:00

Sometimes, even when you're holding on to something that might harm you, you still insist on holding on to it because you're constantly hoping for a miracle to happen. The only thing you can do is to keep hoping and believing that the miracle would happen.

The world is filled with too many people with hearts that are so black that black can't be a colour anymore. I'm thinking of those i know of right this instant. Thinking it might be you? Don't worry, if you actually thought of yourself, you might not actually be such a bad person afterall.

Ohh no, i dont know what is so fucked up right now.

Weeds

2009-07-11T09:09:00.000-07:00

Just started watching this new show and i finished season 1 in 2 days. Hahah i think its a very nice show. It's about a single mother who sells weed to pay for bills and all the hilarious things happens. 2 problematic sons and a bunch of weirdos in her life.

Mary-Louise-Parker
I think im adding her into my admired actresses list. She is so good and funny i absolutely love her.

Change, Changes, Still the same.

2009-07-08T09:27:00.001-07:00

Everytime i tell myself to change, i never do. The old disgusting me is always fighting to release itself and i've always lost. Is plastic surgery the only solution to making me look good? I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that the NEAR years would do my face good. I still wish i'm someone else, someone better. When i see ugly people, i get irritated because they remind me of myself. Ohh shit, im suffering from mid-teen crisis.

Sometimes when you're upset or feeling bad, you just feel like hiding somewhere.

Then and again, i can't be so selfish. I don't have the time to throw a tantrum or have a emotional breakdown because i still have many people to take care of. Remember, Nothing is ever really only about you.

"Don't let them say you aint beautiful"

2009-07-07T10:14:00.000-07:00

Don't you think the make up is so damn cool?

Besides i think Shia Labeouf looks really hot. It's quite a big thing, to survive all the way from disney sidekick to mega movie teen star. Let us switch lives please. So anyway, school has been the same, taking up most of my time. Classes that ends at 9pm everyday is not fun at all. I just think that i really need a change. I need to be better looking, be less honest/straightforward and find meaningful things to do when im bored. Right now, i'm still super bored.

I don't think i can tell you that you're the reason for my unexplained slow movements.

Now i understand what she meant.

I made a wrong move but i came back now will you please do the same?

For a guy, you talk too much.

Beautiful people do no wrong.

2009-07-05T06:31:00.000-07:00

If only i had his nose... and his mouth... and his skin... or maybe look like him.
Out of 10 days, ive been wishing i was someone else for 9 of them. I still don't like the way i look, the way i behave and the situation i'm in. Oh well, i guess the challenge i have is to make the best of what i have and always hope to finally not see a ugly duckling everytime i look into the mirror.

Touch my hand

2009-06-23T10:19:00.000-07:00

Life can be so depressing sometimes. When all the problems in the world starts to appear, usually, you have your family and your friends. When you can't turn to any of them, it will so saddening. Oh well, i just have to learn to love myself.

It never crossed my mind that you would be like that.

Social-lies

2009-06-22T21:01:00.000-07:00

Last night, i attended a function held by the Singapore's Poultry Merchants Assocciation with my father. I was seated beside a Dr Wong, head of something something from the AVA and the rest of the table was filled with unknown big shots of Singapore's poultry industry. It felt awkward at first but soon, we started talking. We talked about the singapore education system, national service and who was taking over who. Glasses were filled and the "uncles" just needed to see if they were still young at heart so they decided to drink with me. Most of the times when they talked to me, i couldnt really hear them or understand them but i still would manage to keep my smile on and do the once in a while nodding. Then i thought, wow, this is socialising. I seem to have done it before.

Yes, if we thought about it, our lives has nearly been about socialising with anyone and everyone. Friends are merely called friends because you see them more oftenly. How many of the people you call friends actually care for you? They will know you for years but you will just realise they don't understand you at all. You are just people that meet oftenly to gossip and chat about current issues. So how do you differentiate the people who socialise with you and those who really are your friends? Well, friends are the people who are real, tell you the truth and would always be there for you. Let's end social-lies.

Is it wrong to be selfish for once

2009-06-20T07:01:00.000-07:00

Of all the times i try to help i always screw it up. This goes to show that my intelligence level is too low for me to do something good. Maybe i should stop trying to be nice since people just take it them i'm being fake or has something up my sleeves.

Both of you are my friends, i didnt want to see any side getting hurt. He is my best friend, you are my good friend. My mistake was being unable to balance the pain right.

I always tell people, life is too short to be anyone else. Follow your dreams. However, ive come to realised that ive forgotten to remind myself. I can no longer follow my dreams and i definitely can't be myself. When people tell you to be honest, never ever be honest because they will still end up hurt. The problem with the world is that they always want to hear nice and sometimes fake things so that they will continue to live in a lie and be happy. Until one day when they realises that the lie they've been living has been broken then they start to panic. By then, it would all be too late. Ahh fuck, life can be depressing.

Though anyway, remember that the amount of stress and pressure you have is the amount you want to take in. Remember, it's want. You can choose to remove unwanted stress and pressure or block them out of your head. Only you yourself can give what you yourself want to give.

Ooohhooohh.

2009-06-11T10:20:00.000-07:00

There's just something about this picture that is just so attractive to me. Hahah. Oh well nvm. Anyway, i don't really have much to say just that i think my life is so boring nowadays. I need all the drama i can get. I guess it's time to quarrel with someone again. This time, i should pick someone interesting enough. Have a wonderful night and can i have my chardonnay?

Three is a crowd.

2009-06-10T08:16:00.000-07:00

I think i'm used to being alone or rather i kinda like it nowadays. Having a quiet life for a change can be really wonderful, humans are way too complicated for me to handle. In just nearly a year,both happiness and sadness have been thrown into my life in large quantities. I don't have time for a break so i guess i'll just have to manage my time well. Have a good night's rest people, enjoy your "present".

And you did it.

2009-06-08T11:10:00.000-07:00

You made a bigger mistake. Guess what?

Hands up in the air, the cool breeze in your hair.

2009-06-06T20:31:00.000-07:00

Because writing is writing and reading is reading, questions are questions and answers are answers, reasons were reasons and lovers were lovers.

I thought it didn't matter anymore.

Wouldn't it be nice to have friends who call you in the middle of the night on a fri/sat night to ask you out for a drink or maybe have a go at the clubs? Yes, it will be nice. Call yourselves club kids and have fun.

When everything is given to you, it's hard to prove your worth, if nothing is given to you, it's harder to prove your worth but if you give nothing at all, just don't bother.

All of a sudden, you seem so distant to me.

Yellow and purple stuck in a circle.

2009-06-05T07:02:00.000-07:00

I've chosen the solution, to remove myself from the outside world. Ohh wait, did i remove myself or was i removed? How did it happen? It must have been me, the problem, the only problem has to be me. Where are you? The Angel from my Nightmare.

Chardonnay

2009-05-31T07:07:00.000-07:00

No amount of it is enough to drown the big thing now. Who do i have anymore?

Hansel and Jasper

2009-05-29T22:13:00.000-07:00

I've been posted to local fashion label Hansel for my internship! However, i must go for a interview and see if they will accept me. Then i think i won't be going to Hansel after all because i haven't prepared my portfolio and i have nothing to put into it. Ohh no........ Anyway, i dont have anything to say now. Wait till i got something to say then i say.

Who doesn't love getting gifts?

2009-05-25T07:48:00.000-07:00

Life is really too short. I have so many things that i want to do but the hours in a day are too little. It sucks alot when nobody can see or view things the way you do and that they don't get the big picture. My head hurts so much it's going to explode. Time to rest. Oh wait, i don't have the time.

Interview with the family.

2009-05-23T10:48:00.000-07:00

Today was the celebration of my mum's birthday. She is the person that i love the most so yeap, it's definitely cool. Made her a dress and got her earrings. JL and Dru bought high class English Breakfast Tea. Hahah.We had alot of fun. Noise is definitely important in our family. A day without bickering is never normal. I think my dad has a really cute side of him as long as he doesnt moodswings. My mum, is really crazy.She laughs for no particular reason. hahah. My sister still acts like a princess and thinks the world is a beautiful rainbow place. The older brother is his usual self. As for the younger one, he is really getting on my nerves. I think i should be blaming myself for his vanity and eagerness for perfection in style, character and life. He really likes to act cool now. Yes, but i still love my family.

School has been nice. Classmates says they just discovered the other annoying and loud side of me after 3 years. Okay, time to be quiet. Anyway, grades has suddenly turned a full round. As and Bs are getting rather comfortable around my fingers. Have a great week!

If you can't hold on.

2009-05-22T09:37:00.000-07:00

As time goes by, i start to realise that nothing is really there anymore. What else can i work hard for? I need to reorganise my life again. It's time to put important stuffs and people back into it and take unnecessary stuffs and people out of it.

American Idol Showdown.

2009-05-16T04:50:00.000-07:00

Well well well, Gokey is finally out and it's now between Pretty Boy Kris Allen and Gay Rocker Adam Lambert. I think that Adam really deserves to be the top 2 because i've never heard a more unique and wonderful voice. As for Kris, well, he is called the dark horse because he is the dark horse. His voice is rather easy on the ears so i suppose thats his selling point. Yup, dont forget to catch the finals!

Tired and sick

2009-05-14T06:15:00.000-07:00

For the past week, i have been waking up early to go school and leaving at times like 11pm or more. It's so darn freaking tiring lah i tell you. All my submissions are due tmr and i cant even go to school to complete.... Wah, i feel damn sian now. I hope it will be over soon

It's the end if you think it's the end.

2009-05-08T03:56:00.001-07:00

When you sit down at your home in a perfectly wonderful evening. You think to yourself not what you are doing but what are you not doing. Life is short and it may end anytime so what is it that you have wanted to do and have not done? How can it be done? Is it useful to be thinking about what you dont have? Why don't you think about what you could have if you made an effort to go and get?

When you don't have something and you really want it badly, get it. If it isn't within your means, don't give up even if it takes the whole world to give in just so you can get it.

When you try to be understanding, there are bound to be people who just want to fuck things up. It's okay, you're still kids. However, you need to know when to grow up.

First time in 3 years.

2009-05-06T08:58:00.001-07:00

Today, i stayed in school till 11pm to finish up the shirt that was due yesterday. My lecturer wanted me to complete it in a day when my other classmates used 3 days. Siao right? but i still did it. Staying till so late was really tiring but it was fun. Didn't know i had such funny classmates. Hahah, anyway, my shirt nice? got 2 big front pockets leh, cool? it looks better in person lah, even my classmates say so. It was supposed to be for alvin but the sleeves i accidentally draft wrongly so he wouldnt be able to fit into it.... so, i wear lah. hahah sorry ah alvin. Okay, damn tired and i still got journals to do so..... goodnight!

Unvisited Memories.

2009-05-04T06:08:00.000-07:00

No, it's not the same anymore. Things/People either changed or you just never really knew the truth. However, the most important thing is to look on the brighter, more promising future.

For the weak eyes and stingy people who refuses to get 8days. :D

2009-05-04T00:52:00.000-07:00

Here you go! Clear enough right? hahah

Oh and since i have my sis' camera with me, i would like to proudly show off my collection of books and dvds! hahah cool right?

A-line Dress

2009-05-03T08:10:00.000-07:00

I made a dress that's actually well liked and wearable! hahah.

2009-05-03T03:23:00.000-07:00

I actually won something for the first time in my life. Hahah. Just thought it would be fun to write in to 8days for the first time and i actually won! You can go read it on the current issue of 8days (the star awards one, 27th april). Although they havent contacted me about the prize, im still very happy that i won.

I wonder if they were being sarcastic about their comment.

Ohh yah, was the dresser on 1st May's fashion show at Taka. There were many beautiful outfits and models that night and i got to get a hands on feel on a Francis Cheong gown. Not very nice i think. The after party was so cool hahah, we could party with the fashion who and whos and drink champagne! Tell me if your job is better than mine. Afterwhich, isaac fetched some of my classmates and i home. Great day!

Okay, not a very great weekend cause im down with flu, sore throat and headache. Saddening. Wanted to watch X-Men. Hahah, some other day then. Goodbye!

Save me the last dance, will you?

2009-04-29T08:52:00.000-07:00

Being happy and being sad, it changes from one to another so quickly. Having no prom during secondary school is really sucky, it's like graduating without a certificate. It just doesn't feel right does it? Well, i guess in life we just have to miss somethings, forgo it and probably experience something else. All of sudden, i really want to fall in love but i know i won't have the chance. hahah, oh well.

When he/she walks away, it's the moment when he/she turns around and looks at you again that tells you everything.

Because one day, maybe one day.

2009-04-28T08:34:00.000-07:00

I like the way you smile when you are happy.

I like the rain when it is oh so calming.

I like watching tv when i get home.

I like the comfortness of hanging out with people who wouln't judge me.

I like the idea of maturing and learning things i've never learnt before.

I like to do nothing but watch people ; The way they dress and behave.

I like to daydream

I like the fact that i can see my family everytime i open the door to my home.

I like it when a good movie tell a story in the most beautiful way ever.

I like to stare at magazines.

I like waking up early in the morning.

I like living in my own world.

I like you.

I dislike my nose (HAHAH).

I dislike the truth.

I dislike reality.

I dislike having classes end so late.

I dislike the fact that i'm not rich enough to buy the things i want.

I dislike the idea of growing up and getting old.

I dislke people who assume they have a great sense of taste.

I dislike salmon and mayo.

I dislike people who doesn't appreciate family or friends.

Oh well, just thought it would be fun.Wanted to comment on Star Awards but pictures couldn't be located. Take care!

Changes, big and small.

2009-04-25T10:44:00.000-07:00

"I'd rather close my eyes than to open them and know that you're not there"

Yesterday, while waiting for the bus to school, i had the calming feeling again. It felt so good, like i had no worries in life. I didn't care about anything, love, friends, family or money. The trees were swaying softly as the wind blew and the sun was shining brightly, giving warmth to the greeneries. As i looked on, i realised, i really need the quiet-ness. Can i just live somewhere nice and peaceful? Like a surburbia in the US or probably something like Wisteria Lane? Wouldn't it be nice?

Not so desperate afterall.

2009-04-23T08:58:00.000-07:00

Today, i decided to d/l s05ep19 of desperate housewifes because i've heard all about the buzz on the internet. At first, i couldn't believe it when i heard that Nicolette Sheridan was going to be leaving DH but ep19 confirmed it. Edie Britt died. I used to be a fan of DH but the passion to watch every episode of it died when S03 and S04 came. However, S05 is really starting to get better though i still insist that the 5 (now left with 4) leading ladies of DH are absolutely wasting their talent on the show.

Nicolette Sheridan aka Edie Britt. I've always liked the fact that Wisteria Lane had a whorish "little" blond. Edie Britt is the main essence of sexy-ness in DH and Edie Britt never fails to bring the party and fun with her. I personally think that Nicolette Sheridan has alot of potential as an actress and i hope she goes on to better roles. All the best, beautiful.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

2009-04-19T23:55:00.000-07:00

I just watched the trailer for HP6 and i must say that i'm very excited and anxious to watch the movie. The trailer looks very promising and i feel that if the movie is as good as what the trailer portrays it to be, it would definitely be the best HP movie (until the other 2 comes out). HP6 promises to be darker and more sinister, focusing on the past of Voldemort and the lovelives of Harry and his friends. Oh come on, let the movie be released already!

Paris, New York, Berlin, Japan, Ibiza & London.

2009-04-18T12:22:00.001-07:00

It's 3.22am alrd and i just got home from work. Today's Zouk Fashion Show was damn hectic and tiring lah, i've lost count of the many many models that were there. 10hours of water-less and standing and hardwork. They better pay me more that $50. Hahah, ohh and i was like dressing guys who were supposed to wear only briefs and some kinky accessories. I was the only guy there so i had no choice. Some of the models had some attitude problems while some of them were fun, chatting backstage while waiting for the show to start. By the end of the show and hours of packing, we were all too tired to even move so i decided to have mac's at home so im currently typing this while biting on a cheeseburger.

Ohh yah, yesterday was pearlyn's birthday celebration. It was so much fun but i dont think i would be going to clubs any sooner cause i think i have really bad dance moves. lol. Had a hangover in the morning and im still damn tired now. I think i'll probably wake up at like in the the afternoon. Have a fun day!

Anything below 20 will be fine.

2009-04-15T09:33:00.000-07:00

Oh come on, just let my bestfriend alvin pass his driving test and get a driving license. He deserves it more than anyone else does. Driving to him is like a really really big thing and it will really hurt his pride if he were to fail another time. Ohh please, let him pass. :)

Can someone just come pick me up and get me away?

2009-04-14T07:42:00.000-07:00

I would love to say goodbye but my heart has already settled.

I've never been the one who gets what i want.

2009-04-14T07:36:00.000-07:00

No one truly understands one another, they only care for themselves, only themselves.

Take a step forward, leave 'em behind.

2009-04-09T09:36:00.000-07:00

It's over, i suppose. The thing i tried building for the past few years just couldn't sustain any longer. It's hard to let go but i have to do it because that's the only way to move on. I'll need to dig out old acquaintances, find new friends and focus on something more important. I've never really wanted to grow up and i hope i never will.

Past few days were spent well, accompanied my dad to the court for all the hearings, worked at a fashion show, met up with the steady fews, had a chat that lasted all night, webcam-ed with colin on msn (damn gay i know), watched Lotr again and thought about my future for a while. The next few days are going to be eventful i hope. No, it will be eventful ; I just need to plan them. All the best in what you're doing, be happy.

2009-04-05T02:31:00.000-07:00

I really like the fact that my life sucks.

I comes before S

2009-04-04T06:17:00.000-07:00

I've never felt so gaowei before in my whole life. The night was terrible, absolutely terrible. Seriously, fuck sushi tei for their spoiled salmon. I've never gotten food poisoning before and seriously, it's damn sick. Stayed at the hospital for a day and needles were seriously sick. Doctor had to put me on a drip to keep me awake. Even till now, i still feel damn gaowei, not as bad as that night but yup, it's still quite bad. Shit man, i want to get well soon, real soon.

It was the heart that hurt more.
I had a fantasy but i guess it won't come true.

Go on and take a bow.

2009-03-29T00:26:00.000-07:00

The past days have been a little hectic, havent been feeling very well, couldnt sleep every night and food always looked disgusting. Today, went to view another house, we were so close to buying the penthouse but the developers suck so much, the house couldnt belong to us. Saddening.

I thought that i was your friend, someone who at least have a stand in someplace. Haven't i been nice enough, haven't i give in enough? There is only so much i can give, i hope it's just a misunderstanding.

Not Teen Anymore

2009-03-25T03:42:00.000-07:00

I'm 20 already. Come to think of it, i'm actually considered old. 20 and i haven't acheived anything great. I still don't like the way i look, the way i talk and the way i behave. For 20 years, i've been living as someone i dislike. Is it all going to change when the big 20 comes? I hope so. Anyway, i've got to thank the special few who made my birthday a unique occasion with 3 celebrations on 3 nights. Thank you very much, my life would really suck without you.

Hear the wedding bells ring.

2009-03-17T10:06:00.000-07:00

I've been stressing myself out with projects that are due way too soon but i believe that there's a plus point for everything and for this, one of the many plus was that since my research topic was "Bridal", i found many amazing photos.

1 will never be 2

2009-03-15T09:31:00.000-07:00

And at a time like this, you have to hit me so hardly.
I can no longer see any road in front of me , i think it's the end.
Can anybody, just anybody, shine a light for me
just to show me where to go,
because i think i'm lost, i'm really lost.

I call you my bestfriend because i believed that you trust me like i trust you, i call you my bestfriend because you'll have my back just like i have yours, i call you my best friend because i believe you would never be angry with me just like i won't be with you, i call you my bestfriend because you are the best of all my friends.

XOXO. G.G

"He's not a mouse, he's my brother"

2009-03-10T09:48:00.000-07:00

Today, 11th or March is the actual date of my brother's 21st birthday. Oh well, happy birthday. He is celebrating it this saturday at Suburbia Sentosa, it's a rather grand place and it costs a bomb. I wonder how am i supposed to top that. I helped out with the guest list and table/seating arrangements. I realised it's quite a difficult job especially when there's limited seats. Only 75 guests allowed but i squeezed in 80. It's really really tough okay? Hahah, good day.

Lost, never found.

2009-03-06T09:18:00.000-08:00

I tried to tell myself a lie, i told myself that i won't ever be alone.

The lesser the love, the lesser the pain.

Money is Power.

Love yourself, no one else.

You can't play on broken strings.

Waiting for other's sympathy is not an option.

If you don't eat the burger, the burger will eat you.

When the night falls and the cold wind blows on your face,
you tell yourself that everything is okay
When the lightning strikes and the thunder roar,
you're hoping that somebody will say

Hey little child, don't be afraid
i'll keep you warm despite the cold rain.
Hey little child, you're not alone
i'll be here to sing you a song

I dont really know what's in my mind, actually i do, i just dont feel like telling anyone. Or rather no one really cares. Oh well, nevermind.

Nothing's really about me.

2009-03-01T08:15:00.000-08:00

I had fun on both fri and sat. It was a blast hanging out with people like them. Sun was also cool because i got to hang out with the 3 people who basically are main characters in a little childhood story. Roy,Vian & Lsh. Alvin joined us for dinner at chomps too but too bad he had to leave early.

However, there are always the sucky part and for me, it's that i'd still have to wake up early tmr and go for class and then only going home at 6 in the evening. The thing is that, i dont have a holiday and im not even freaking going for itp lah. fuck man, seriously. Block teaching is seriously short term helpful and long term damaging. Well, at least for me. I'm starting to lose interest in this course already. They dont do what i love to do, they dont teach what i want to learn. I want to learn how to make dresses, not to learn how to communicate design arguments or sourcing and costing. It's just my interest to learn how to make dresses, im not going to be in the freaking fashion industry lah. Okay, the more i complain, the more fucked up i feel. Fuck school.

That very night, i just wanted to feel what its like to be the one to throw tantrums, have moodswings and see how you'd react to it. Apparently, no one gives a shit.

And the Oscar goes to............

2009-02-22T21:03:00.000-08:00

This year's Oscar was much less boring than the previous ones. It wasn't very interesting but yeah it was still okay. Hugh Jackman had an opening number and sang with Anne Hathaway. Oh, didn't know the 2 of them could sing that well. There was also the Beyonce, Zannessa and Domanda performance. Then there were also surprise presenters like Halle Berry, Shirley Mclaine, Cher, Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Adrien Brody and Robert Deniro.

Best Picture - SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE

Steven Spielberg presented this award. When Slumdog Millionaire was announced, i was thinking okay, Button didnt win. However, when i saw the faces of the kids from mumbai i thought well, it was all worth it i guess. An epic lost to a little movie about love and life.
SEAN PENN - MILK

Most of the people thinks it would be Mickey Rourke but deep down in my heart, i always knew it would be Penn. The Academy loves him more than Mickey and the fact that Mickey is acting as himself gives him alot of negative points. Sean Penn, 2 times Oscar winner.

KATE WINSLET - THE READER

The Actress who the Academy owed an Oscar to finally had the chance to get a standing ovation, take the little gold man home and join the list of elites which includes Meryl Streep, Katherine Hepburn, Cher, Kathy Bates, Hilary Swank etc that would bring her long down history lane. I love Kate.

HEATH LEDGER - THE DARK KNIGHT

Heath Ledger definitely deserves the award. Being only the 2nd one to have won an Oscar posthumusly, Heath Ledger received a standing ovation and loads of applause from the whole Kodak Theatre when his named was called. His parents and his sister accepted the award on his behalf and thanked the Academy. All the best for you up there Heath.
PENELOPE CRUZ - VICKY CHRISTINA BARCELONA

Known to be the frontrunner ever since Kate was pushed to Lead, Penelope commented on the podium that she might be the first to faint there. She gave a rather nice speech although you have to listen hard to know what she is saying. Well done Penelope.

2009-02-22T17:23:00.000-08:00

The Academy Awards is finally here and before the fight in the Kodak Theatre, the stars are trying their very best to take down the others with their dresses and tresses. Here are the very beautiful ladies whom you've probably seen on the big screen.

Queen of my heart Kate Winslet showed us class, sophistication and beauty all in one.

08's Best Actress Marion Cottilard stepped away from the mermaid silhouette and hops into a black stunning number.

Penelope never fails to dazzle and this time, it was a 60 yrs old dove grey coloured gown that helped her knock some of her other carpet divas down.

Greatest Living Actress of all time Meryl Streep wore a dress to the Oscar's. Always not much of a fashionista, at least she tried plus, she looks really comfortable.

Miss where were you? Natalie Portman wins hands down for brightest dress on carpet award. Well, at least she looks good.

Viola Davis' dress has a good cut but im really not very sure about the colour and fabric choice.

1st runner up for brightest dress on the red carpet award goes to Alicia Keys. Wait, what is she doing at the Oscar's?

This is what i truly call effortless beauty. Playing it down with a simple black dress, Angelina Jolie still looked smoking hot and i really like her earrings. She is a true beauty.

It isn't nice but it is very Tilda Swinton in a way that its cool. At least it wasnt the black garbage bag she wore last year.

Evan Rachel Woods never fails to look like a sex siren on the red carpet and this time, the colour of the dress made her a holy maiden that every teenage boy dreams about.

I like the dress, i actually think that the bling completes Queen Latifah's look.

It's hard for someone as sweet as Amy Adams to pull off a red dress on a red carpet but she does it well tonight with the softness of the fabric and the beautiful statement necklace just makes her look sweeter than honey.

Vanessa Hudgens in a black gown that was lengthened for her with the little details at her bust. I think was rather sweet and age appropriate.

Taraji P Henson in a stunning white number. I really like the train of the dress and it fits her so well.

Melissa Leo was kind of a horror here, i have no idea what she has been thinking of.

Marisa Tomei really surprised me (in a very good way) when she showed up at the Oscars. She must have seriously realised that the "Stuffs" she wore to the previous award shows were hideous and so decided to step up her game and chose this beautiful & elaborate dress. You go girl!

Sarah Jessica Parker

Leaving at home all the bling this year, Beyonce Knowles didn't fail to seek attention with her embroided gold/black number. She must really want to match the Oscar.

Anne Hathaway arrived in a wonderful silvery sequinned dress that sparkles and shimmers like her radiant skin. Absolutely gorgeous anne.

Amanda Seyfried looking good and once again, we see the bow.

This was one of my favourite dresses of the night but im not sure it looked that good on Miley Cyrus. Girl, what are you? 26?

Freida Pinto, touted as the must watch fashionista showed up in a dress that was defnitely the most exotic ones of the night. It has got all the little details that makes the dress feels indian and Freida pulls it off very well.

Supermodel Heidi Klum once again in red, looks good but not good enough to stop traffic. Try harder beautiful.

London, Paris and Singapore

2009-02-19T08:27:00.000-08:00

In life, there are people you meet and bonds are formed. These unseeable force between people is something that nothing except the involved parties can ever remove. Now, i am very thankful for the people currently in my life and the bonds that i share with them. I have the friends that anyone in the world would die for. I'm not saying all of them are great because there are some people that's just not meant to stay for long. You cross paths with them, maybe they last for a couple of days, weeks or even months. It's okay. At the end of the day, be thankful for what you have and show them that you are thankful.

I just received an email from a lecturer in school. There is a trip to London/Paris for 8 days during april. Part of me wants to go because its the place that i'd always dreamed of. The streets, the culture, the people and everything. However, it's with my classmates and i'm not sure if i want to go with them. I'd be alone and far away from my friends. I wouldn't even survive the long duration on air. I guess i'd have to give this chance up.

Currently, they are my world.

Connection, separation & Reconciliation.

2009-02-18T07:32:00.000-08:00

Hey there my love, have you seen the letters that i wrote to you?
Telling you how very sorry i am to have broke your heart,
not knowing how precious you really mean to me.
What an idiot i must have been,
to have forgotten how good it felt when you're holding me.

Will you drop a single tear if i am no longer around?

I too believe in Karma.

2009-02-17T08:33:00.000-08:00

Others around me have enough troubles of their own to hear mine. I've been having a bad month. Bad Hair, Bad Skin and Bad things happening to me. I just want to turn time back and edit the things that i did, the things that others did and the things that nobody did. I hope that things will turn out well for me starting tomorrow.

My lecturer told me that she sees potential in me, something the rest of the class doesn't have. I think she is lying but whatsoever, i think i should not be so slack-ish in school anymore. I should just buck up and show em what the real me is made of. Someone who can se dresses meant to be worn. Hahah, i felt funny when i typed the few lines before. Just wanted to see how i sounded when im confident because she says i have a very low self esteem and i need to start believing in myself. How to? What's there to believe in?

Even if it leads nowhere.

2009-02-15T03:05:00.000-08:00

Vday was spent..... well. Yes i would say it was spent well because even though there weren't any love from a lover, there was love from friends. We walked around town, visited a carboot sales, got into trouble, witnessed a guy giving roses for the very first time, had dinner at changi, sat by the beach, played at a playground and watched a midnight movie named slumdog millionaire before heading home. Though isaac was locked out of his house so he slept at mine. Tonight is a sunday night and i've got this sour feeling in my heart. Something is missing, empty and it ain't feeling good.

Everytime i fall into the darkness, i'd pray that you'd be the light that pulls me through.

Course Manager

2009-02-10T00:20:00.000-08:00

My school life is seriously damn fucked up. I seriously don't know why. I really like the course that i'm in but all the block teaching, un-communicative classmates, weird lecturers are ruining it. I have to see the course manager tmr and i got a bad feeling about this. Fuck it lah.

BAFTA red carpet

2009-02-08T16:12:00.000-08:00

The BAFTA 09 red carpet was downright cold and low number of A-list celebrities have turned up due to the "far away-ness" and rain. It was 1.30am here. Now, however, the A-listers that turned out didn't fail to bring their hollywood glam with them. The colour that reigned that night was black. Meryl, Kate and Penelop all wore black. Meryl is in something that is very her and i think this was nice, very comfortable,very regal. Kate's Zac Posen dress has a interesting neckline and cuts very well on her body. Penelope opted for black again, this time her dress is body hugging and embraces all the right curves on her body. I really like the hair and jewelry. She looks amazing.

Sharon Stone looks good in a simple red number, though she looks wrinkly on tv. Marisa Tomei finally stepped away from horrendous fashion choices but still failed to look fabulous beside her other better dressed collegues. Young and beautiful Emma Watson looks fabulous in a black dress that is brought to live by the detailing.

Angelina Jolie actually wore something that isn't a potato sack. I just love the fact that she actually bothered to put on something that makes us think she actually bothered to choose something to wear. I think the dress would have looked better with a train or something. Amy Adams opted for blue and it was rather fabulous. It isn't as nice as the other choices she made but still, she looks good.

So, the best dressed at the BAFTA would be Penelope Cruz. Well done there but the final competition is on the 22/23. Don't disappoint me.

Now, Grammy's are next!

One song about a person

2009-02-07T10:00:00.000-08:00

I don't know what's this feeling im feeling right now. It's rather weird. I'm feeling lonely yet not lonely at the same moment. I suppose i'm just afraid to lose the people around me and i don't know what to do. However, a line from the movie i watched yesterday made me feel better. I think its something like that lah.

"If the people around you didn't die, you wouldn't know how to miss them."

If only things were different.

The curious case of

2009-02-06T07:55:00.000-08:00

I just watched the movie today. I think that it is a wondeful epic. Great plot, great storytelling and wonderful performances by the cast. It is my current favourite movie if i were to give it awards but i haven't seen Slumdog Millionaire yet. Anyway, you have got to catch this movie although you might feel that your butt hurts alittle (runs at nearly 3hrs) and your neck aches. It is really worth the watch. A good movie is something that makes you think and reflect on life. Of course there are the comedies but at the end of the day, it's such movies that really shows the wow-ness of motion pictures. It truely is a piece of art.

Life is not measured by minutes but by moments.

Today, something big happened but i shall not say what. I'm shocked, shocked at myself really. To think that the response i gave myself was something that i wouldn't expect.

When we're old,
When we lay beside each other in our last few breaths
Your eyes in mine and mine in yours
Will you tell me that you love me?
And that if there were a next life,
You would love me again like you did this life?

I can only imagine.

I'm so not gonna CHUCK it aside.

2009-02-04T00:56:00.000-08:00

Just when i thought Ugly Betty, Desperate Housewives and Heroes were cool, I watched Chuck. It was one of the best shows i have ever watched. It's filled with fun, laughter, guns, hot chicks, leather suits and a very good plot. Well, i can't elaborate more but you have to watch it yourself to agree with me.

It's a thursday afterning and im sitting at home doing nothing. I just finished watching season 1 of Chuck. Didn't attend class today because i got an mc for a very bad cold. Slept pretty much and now i'm still feeling tired. It has got to be the medicine. Yesterday, while feeling all sick and all, i was thinking, how nice would it be if someone were there to accompany me.

Oh well, it's time for me to show off again. Not really, these are just my assignment for the previous modules. Just thought i could show you what im doing.

Alright then, goodbye!

The Reader

2009-01-29T07:12:00.001-08:00

"I didn't like the way i look, the way i dressed and how i moved, what i acheived and what i felt i was worth.But there was so much energy in me, such belief that one day i'd be handsomeand clever and superior and admired, such anticipation when i meet new people and new situations. Is that what makes me sad? The eagerness and belief that filled me then and exacted a pledge from life that life could never fufil?"

When we open ourselves
you yourself to me and i myself to you,
when we submerge
you into me and i into you
when we vanish
you into me,and into you i
Then
am i me
and you are you

From The Reader. It's a rather nice book.

CNY had been okay, i wouldn't call it fun but yeap it was okay. I'm looking forward to this weekend because of all the house visiting of friends. I think ive been having fun nowadays. Relaxed kind of fun.

CNY Screen Actors Guild Awards Red Carpet

2009-01-25T17:54:00.000-08:00

Yes, i woke up at 5am to await the SAG awards red carpet even on CNY day 1. However, it was worth it. The stars shone as brightly as ever and of course there were hits and misses. Newcomers knocking down Red Carpet Veterans, Angelina wraps herself with a towel and a battle between 3 housewives. Here are my thoughts about the 2009 SAG's red carpet.

Viola Davis, Amy Poehler, Christina Applegate & Penelope Cruz. Viola's dress looks good on tv, the colour of the dress is just stunning and the cut of the dress suited her very well. Amy is still spotting a post baby bod here with simple(usually here)empire dress, I like her. Always more of a miss then a hit, Christina Applegate looks like she could use a better stylist if she even has one. Her earrings are too much, dont like the dress and she still looks like a newbie. Penelope was one of the most beautiful woman on the carpet and i like how she matched her earrings and ring.

Emily Blunt, Taraji. P.Henson, Tina Fey and Jenna Fischer. Emily looks okay, i think she has a thing for glitters. Taraji looks absolutely stunning. Love the hair, love the dress and how it fits her body. And you should see the way she poses, that woman has got talent. Tina Fey was one of the very few who opted for the shorter dresses. She was caught pulling her dress up after she stepped out of the limo and man, did she waved and posed while doing so. God bless this woman. I like the colour of Jenna's dress but i dont really like the way the dress ends. It looks unfinished and unglam.

Anne Hathaway, Kate Winsley & Angelina Jolie. And the winner for "Not Appreciating the chance to walk on a red carpet" goes to Angelina Jolie. If you've seen her dress during the Golden Globes, you'll be thinking. My, she must really love the dress because she actually ordered 2 of the same dress in different materials and wore both of them to the red carpet! Gosh, are you seriously going to fade away from Hollywood as the hot girl who went not? Anne Hathaway looks good. She chose the dress that makes a statement yet doesn't go over the top. Kate Winslet stole the show when she stepped out of the limo. Dressed in a fitted blue gown with a neckline that says: Look at my Globes!, Kate Winslet absolutely looks like Hollywood Royalty with a tinge of Old Hollywood Glam.

Eva Longoria, Teri Hatcher and Nicolette Sheridan. For most other actresses, award shows are shows where they compete to see who takes home the award but for the cast of the once big hit Desperate Housewives, what really matters is who takes down the rest and shines like a star. The claws come out and the fans decide. Eva Longoria looks okay, with a peachy dress that seems to be making her look 10 years older and i really dont like her hair. Teri Hatcher actually looks stunning. I really really love her dress and i would say its one of my top favourite dresses of the day. It's very Teri Hatcher, it's attention grabbing. Now, i actually think Nicolette's dress is rather nice, i like the colour and how the fabric drapes over her body making her look wow wow wee. However, i just dont think she can pull the one-shouldered dress kind of look. Good try though. So, the housewife that managed to climb the glamour ladder today was, Teri Hatcher.

Evan Rachel Wood looks glam and nice, not much to say about the dress though but i love her hair. America Ferrera proves once again why she is Ugly Betty, Her dress fits nicely and the colour was okay but once she turns around, there's a patch of black "stuff" stuck on her butt. Not very nice.

Alright, that's all for now because i can't locate the other photos and i remember i have to comment on the very disastrous outfit of Marisa Tomei and there's the "Mini Charlize Theron" look pulled by Melissa Leo. Now, my mum is hurrying me to get changed and it's ang bao time! :) Winners to be announced later.

Hello Oscar Nominees!

2009-01-22T06:30:00.000-08:00

Today has been an exciting day. Finally the list has arrived. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button leads with 13 nominations, followed by Slumdog Millionaire with 10 while box office king The Dark Knight follows with 8.

Now, Let's start with the best actress category, my personal favourite. Anne Hathaway, an expected lock for a nomination for her turn as the black sheep sister in Rachel Getting Married. I'm happy about this one. Angelina Jolie gave many critics slaps on their faces by slotting herself conveniently into this year's race after missing out on many awards for her role as a mother who got the wrong son. Another black horse running fast is Melissa Leo in Frozen River. Now, Melissa like Angelina were what many critics and award predictors deemed as longshots after Kristin Scott Thomas and Sally Hawkins, however, they managed to claw their way through to get seated nicely on top. Well done! Meryl Streep, who held the record for most nominations(14) by an actor has just outrun herself with a total of 15 nominations to date with her turn as the nun who goes all out to make sure the priest who molested a child gets his punishment. Last but not least, Oscar surprised nearly everyone (not me) when Kate Winset was announced in the Best Actress category for not Revolutionary Road but The Reader even though she was pushed as a supporting for that role.

Best Supporting Actress: Amy Adams for her role as a naive nun in Doubt. This is supposed to be the race for Kate and Penelope Cruz but now that Kate is out, we're sure who is the frontrunner in the race. Penelope Cruz for her role as a tempestous ex-wife in Woody Allen's Vicky Christina Barcelona. Viola Davis as the mother of the molested child in Doubt. Taraji P. Henson as a loving adoptive parent in The Curious Case for Benjamin Button. Making the 5th slot is actress Marisa Tomei who plays a stripper in the movie The Wrestler.

Best Actor: Richard Jenkins who was the early favourite went into the quiet zone during Golden Globe, Bafta, Critics and everything letting stars like Leonardo Dicaprio and Clint Eastwood to get the oscar buzz. However, he proves that quality is all that matters by knocking out the 2 heavyweights and earned himself a rightful spot in the top 5. Hollywood favourite Sean Penn's name being read out was like hearing Paris Hilton's name on E! Entertainment. There was nothing surprising to see him get nominated for his portrayal as the wonderful gay activist Harvey Milk in Milk. Frank Langella is a Tony Award winner vying for an Oscar. Many have said that this tony award winning role is the last chance for Frank to win an Oscar. Brad Pitt is also being nominated for his best to date role as the guy who aged backwards and learning about love and death. Critic's favourite Mickey Rourke is giving Sean a run for his money as being the forseen 5th nominee in this category after giving somewhat his best performance in a hollywood comeback story. Look out for him.

Best Supporting Actor: Josh Brolin is nominated for his role as the man who kinda didnt "like" Harvey Milk in Milk. Robert Downey Junior is nominated for a role where he is a dude who is disguised as a dude to act as another dude in Tropic Thunder. Academy Award favourite Phillip Seymour Hoffman is also nominated for his turn as the Priest who is being accused of molesting a boy in Doubt. Having to fight with Meryl Streep on screen and not look like a idiot is tough work, besides, this heavyweight was the winner of Best Actor in 2006. Heath Ledger, the name that everyone (me) would not be happy to not hear his name being announced in the nominee list. Having won the Golden Globe already for his portrayal as The Joker, Heath joins the ranks of being the 7th posthumus nominated actor. Only one has won till date. Here is an interesting one, Michael Shannon who portrayed a mentalist in Revolutionary Road was oversee-ed by many voters in the early season. Names like Tom Cruise, and Ralph Fiennes hogged the awards season with the other 4 previously named but Shannon proves to be a star to be watched.

Right that's all for now.

A different point of view.

2009-01-21T21:05:00.000-08:00

Last week, or rather last last week, accompanied isaac to bukit timah reservoir to take photos for his photography module. We spent 2 bloody hours there with sweat and blood. (mosquitoes) Then we went to marina and esplanade to continue. Alvin joined us too. Please take a look at some of the photos.

Academy Awards Nominations

2009-01-21T08:20:00.000-08:00

Tomorrow is the day that i've been waiting for for the past few months. It's the day that the Oscar nominations are announced! Hahah. I just hope that these few names would be read tomorrow. Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Kate Winslet, Heath Ledger,Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, Leonardo Dicaprio & Chris Nolan. Yeap, Let's look forward to it!

I'll never have the heart to put you down.

Leave a light on

Monday was a rather good day. Though some caretaker of mine in school reprimanded me for skipping morning classes. He demands a letter from my parents to explain why have i not been attending class and wants me to be punctual for classes starting from tuesday. Nope, i didn't go today either. I can't think of any excuses. So, monday, Alvin and Isaac came to my house for dinner and to visit Jialong. He couldn't even recgonise Alvin when he saw him. Smiled at Isaac though. Then after they went home, helped my mother pack all her rings and earrings. She got damn alot to give away, some still with price tags on. Gosh, i wonder how much she wasted already. Then this morning, 2 people from the Ministry of Health bloody hell disturbed my sleep and they checked my whole house to see if there are any mosquito's breeding places. Asked questions about my brother and stuffs before leaving the house. Okay, i'm starving now.

Your past will always be back to haunt your present.

I hope you're different.

2009-01-18T07:51:00.000-08:00

Things havent been going well lately. School, i've decided to drop my morning module which means i've got to retake 4 modules next sem/year. I hope i don't get kicked out. Home, quarrels with my dad is rather frequent because of moving house. He wants me to sleep either at the balcony or in the storeroom. Where got father ask son to sleep in storeroom one? It's not that he got no money or what, i just dont understand why he is doing this. I feel the pinch now, that my brother is really really suffering in camp. Ever since he went into NS, he comes out every sat like a lifeless person, without soul and all. He doesn't talk and he doesn't do anything. He just lies on his bed 24/7. Then, he came home last fri and was sick. He was so sick that he couldnt eat or move. Then, we brought him to the hospital and got an mc. Then the NS people bloody hell call and says that he must be in camp or they will take legal actions.

So, my father brought him there to let them see how sick he is. He couldnt even move a muscle. Then they waited damn long before some "representative" comes to say he is bringing my brother into the camp. My father was furious and of course, refused to let the representative bring him in. He requested to see someone in charge. So, the people in charge actually told the representative that they can't come out of their offices. Wow, seriously, what's wrong with them? So my father says he is bringing him home. Then some person in charge calls my dad and repeats over and over again my brother have to be inside or they would take legal actions, emphasising on "Legal Actions". What the hell lah seriously. So after a long time of negotiation, the person in charge says, he have to be back tmr at 22.00 or they will take Legal Actions. So, drusilla asked the person to be clear, am or pm. You might be thinking she's the dumb one but guess what? the person said "am". So drusilla asked again, 8am? then the person said yah 22.00am. I dont know if you get the joke but i think if i were drusilla i would just "kup" his call.

Main thing now is, i think that singapore NS system got problem one. I understand that there are alot of people who fake mcs to escape from NS but im sure that by bringing my brother down to prove he is really sick should do the work. We have a letter from a doctor in TTS and they claim that their Certified Doctor inside is the only one who can prove if he is sick. So by sending one man down to "bring" a sick man who can't even move to the "clinic" inside is efficient? Yes, NS is suppose to toughen up a boy and make him into a man. However, i'm sure there is a fine line between toughening up and near torture. If i were there, i would definitely ask them to take legal actions and we'll see who's right and who's wrong. We didnt send our loved ones to go into NS to suffer like that. Now, my brother is delirious and talking to himself. Thank you very much National Service.

Okay, im done venting my anger.

It's actually not that bad.

2009-01-14T05:15:00.000-08:00

Okay, don't want to talk about my life because its not that wonderful. Though i would like to say im beginning to like my 3-6 class because its getting fun. The 2nd and 3rd pictures were done by me. A manhattan portage bag and a dress for Cameron Diaz.

Don't you feel good by just looking at her?

98% happy with the globes.

2009-01-11T20:19:00.000-08:00

Summary of the Golden Globes 09

Okay, at the very start of the show, Jennifer Lopez very quickly announced the winner of Best Supporting Actress in a movie. I was basically jumping up and down infront of the tv. The wonderful actress was very shocked to win the award and she was like :"I'm sorry, i have a habit of not winning" because of the previous 5 nominations and 0 wins for both golden globes and oscar. lol. Well done there Kate. Then, about nearly 2 hours later, everyone in the room and those at home were shocked when her name was announced for the winner of Best Actress in a Leading role. She basically teared and needed help to get onto the stage. That was the third time i was jumping around.Yes, even i couldn't believe that she won over hot favourites Anne Hathaway & Meryl Streep. Will it give her a solid standing at the Oscar's? I hope so.

The second time i jumped is when Heath Ledger was named Best Supporting male for his turn as the Joker in The Dark Knight. The audiences in the room gave him a standing ovation. If you're up there Heath, i hope you are truly happy.

Of course there are the upsets of the night. The fact that Mickey Rourke won instead of Sean Penn for Best Actor and that Sally Hawkins beat out hot favourite Meryl Streep for the Lead in Comedy/Musical.

Slumdg millionaire was the big winner, taking home 4 awards including Best Picture. I was happy because i read the book and it was really good. However, this means another movie i liked went home empty handed - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button". Take care.

The other winners can be found on http://www.goldenglobes.org/nominations/ . See you again when the SAGs arrive.

The dress, the hair, the glam.

2009-01-11T19:09:00.000-08:00

So, woke up at like 5am to watch the red carpets. So here are the beautiful ladies...

Okay Demi, you look normal and young, scarily young. Kate, great job there, a simple dress that makes a statement. Anne, i expected you to wow me because i know you can do better. You look good but i didnt jump up from my sofa. Kate beckinsale looks gorgeous. Although i think her hair needs to be higher.

Cameron Diaz looks cute but i think something is wrong with her dress. Renee Zellweger looks like a witch that woke up from the wrong side of the bed. The skirt is okay but the top is seriously wrong. What happened to you? Now, olivia wilde looks beautiful but a little too transexuallish. Plus, the dress looks like something Charlize wore before. Hi, Kyra, you look good.

Eva mendes' dress is like those little napkins placed on your table when you go to a wedding dinner, just that this one got bigger. I really like her necklace though. Okay, J Lo's dress looks very good on tv, when she is moving. Sexy would be the world to describe her. Here's one of my favourites, Eva Longoria's dress had the right shape but im not very sure of the choice of fabric and if you've watched the red carpet show, you would feel very uncomfortable staring at her boobs. They looked extremely squashed up. I'm glad Beyonce didnt go all THAT bling this time, she did it with class and legs thought i think it's not the best she should be wearing. J Lo's bringing you down lady.

It has always been fun wondering what Debra Messing would turn up in and it's good, not bad.Not wow-ish but good. America Ferrara, i like the top of the dress but i kinda hated the bottom of it. Not flattering woman. I think that Amy Adam's dress look alittle like Anne's but i like Amy's better. It's more me. hahah. Ohh and i think her earrings are cute. Christina Applegate looks weird. Enough said.

I seriously think that i remember seeing miley cyrus' dress somewhere on the red carpet before. Amanda Bynes? Sienna Miller? Okay nvm, she looks good nontheless. Dear Drew Barrymore, i really love your dress you know? However, i really jumped out of my sofa when i saw your hair. You were so close to looking perfect. so close. Now, i can't help but to put the jonas brothers here. Lol dont you think they look so pretty?

Then there's Brangelina, they look very good. Though angelina looks boring but yet, with their star power, they still look good. Very good.

He's got everything i have to live without.

2009-01-04T08:06:00.000-08:00

Oh no, class is starting tomorrow! And its 9-6 everyday freaking day. Gosh, please let classes be fun and projects easy.

There's this TV Writers course at singapore media school and i would really really love to take it but it's 1200k for the course. Where am i supposed to find that much money?!? However, Oscar winning Scriptwriter and emmy-nominee are going to be the course teachers! Hmm...

Okay, may tomorrow be a better start.

It's all about the globes

2009-01-03T10:50:00.000-08:00

So, main thing today was that we went to Isaac's house for popiah dinner today. It was rather fun to prepare it yourself and i think peiwen lost to me in the wrapping competition. Hahah. After that it was just grapvine and alittle mahjong.

So, it's time for the golden globes!!!!! Although i havent watched most of the films (not released here yet), i'd still like to comment on who i'd like to see bring home the award.

Now, for the Best Picture race, out of 5 films, I would say Slumdog Millionaire is the strongest contender among all of the other 4. The only movie that would come close is Curious case of Benjamin Button. However i think that this movie would just be like other big movies (Aviator) that wouldnt end up winning best picture. Love Revolutionary Road too. Other films are The Reader and Frost/Nixon.

Best Actress: Well well well, this is a really tough spot to be at because unlike previous obvious winners, this is the year where we all scratch our heads thinking who would the HFPA pick. Would it be most nominated veteran actress Meryl Streep? or last year's big snub paparazzi queen Jolie? or comeback oscar winner Kristin? or poor poor Kate who should be long ago recgonised for her superb acting skills? or maybe they would give it to critics fav and girl next door Anne. I surely wouldnt mind if any of them won.

Best Actor: Oh well, never been really excited about this category because my favourites never win. Hahah. Okay, this year's race would probably go to Sean Penn for his potrayal of a gay activist in Milk but there is also Mickey Rourke who was a favourite years ago and now have made a comeback with a critcally acclaimed role in The Wrestler. Other contenders include Brad Pitt, Leonardo Dicaprio and Frank Langella.

Supporting Actor: HEATH LEDGER!!!!! Please please please let Heath Ledger win. Gosh, his potrayal of The Joker is one of the best performances ive ever seen by an actor. Seriously, i dont really care about the rest (okay maybe a little) i just want Heath to win. Thank you very much. Other nominees are Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Junior, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Ralph Fiennes. Of course, i think the only person who can outrun heath would be favourite Phillip. If they give the award to someone else, i'd just not watch the show anymore.

The things to take note are that Kate Winslet is nominated for both Leading and Supporting Actresses for Revolutionary Road and The Reader. Although it is clear the she spent alot of time on screen in The Reader, she was put into the supporting category for fear that she might outdraw herself in the lead category.

Revolutionary Road is the first collaboration between Kate and Leonardo since the "little" movie Titanic. It is also the first time Kate's husband Sam Mendes is directing her in a movie.

Another double nominee is Meryl Streep. She is nominated for both her roles in Doubt and Mamma Mia. Will she win both?

In the Musical/Comedy Best Picture Race, Mamma Mia, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Happy go Lucky, Burn After Reading and In Bruges are in. I'd go for Mamma Mia.

Miley Cyrus and Beyonce Knowles are going to sing it out with both of their songs nominated for Best Song. I thought i'd lost you from Bolt & Once in a Lifetime from Cadillac records are also facing competition from 'Gran Torino, Gran Torino', 'Down to Earth, Wall E', 'The Wrestler, The Wrestler'.

There's more to go but im very tired now. 4am liaoz. okay, goodnight!

The crabmeat, coloured vodka, sofa and bath tub.

2009-01-01T08:14:00.000-08:00

Yesterday night was definitely very fun for me. Steamboat with the guys at leo's aunt's place. Really have to thank leo and his family for being so nice to let us have the beautiful house for the night and the car for transport. I think that drinking is really very fun because last night, for the very first time, i couldn't feel anything. As in there isnt anything to think about and i felt happy i think so it's not totally cannot feel anything. However, it comes with a price. After i went home and slept and woke up, i felt damn terrible. I suppose they call it the hangover. My head felt very heavy, i was dizzy and had a running nose. Then realised that i had bruises all over my body. Isaac says i fell alot last night. Can't remember. Oh but i do remember isaac's embarassing moment. Okay, currently pw and colin are asking if im okay while wp is laughing at me and telling me how many times i fell down the stairs. Have a wonderful new year!

A new start that never comes

2008-12-30T08:48:00.000-08:00

I've always hated the new year to come. It always reminds me that i've wasted another year of my life, reminds me of the years left of me i the world. Every single year, i'd tell myself to change. I'd tell myself, maybe in the next year, someone will like me, maybe next year i'd probably look better & maybe next year, i'll like myself. However, the year just never comes. Everything i write here, i just can't say it to anyone in the face because i've got a feeling they just don't give a damn. This is why this blog exists; For me to type things i can't say. I really hope that the year of 09 would be a successful one.

I believe in Karma, i really do.

You jump, i jump

2008-12-28T08:56:00.000-08:00

Went home in the morning. Went to fetch andy yesterday and his ears are still intact. Went to slack and got 2 road blocks in 15mins. Road blocks are cool.

Just watched Titanic this afternoon. I still think it's a damn cool movie. The part when Jack tells Rose not to let go made me cry. Yes, i cried. It's a great love story. Will i find someone like that?

Went to someone's birthday party just now. Met up with old friends. I realised that my world isn't fun when the right people are not there. I'm feeling quite bored now because it's only 1am and ive been going home at only 4+ for the past one week.

Do you want to be the one without love?

2008-12-26T23:15:00.000-08:00

All of a sudden, i remembered that school is going to start next week. No, not the day after tomorrow. Well, i really really really don't like classes to start.

Andy and leonard are still snowmanS. Oh, andy should be at the beijing airport now as he is supposed to reach sg at 9.35pm. leo still has 2 days to go.

I'm currently watching MTV. Top 100 songs of 2008. 3rd was Disturbia while 2nd went to With You. It's the advertisement now and my mum nearly switched channels.

I'm having frustrating thoughts for the past few days, i don't know what's wrong and that's the problem. I received a late christmas gift from alvin and it was a ben sherman tee. Thanks man.Okay and the top song of 2008 went to Bleeding Love. Do you agree with MTV? I'm currently sitting at home waiting for time to pass. 2008 is coming to an end and it means a new beginning is coming. I'm not going to give myself any new year resolutions because it never happens. However, i really really really need to pull myself together (or rather my wallet) and start saving. 2008 has been a year of partying, driving and drinking. Such things are very costly okay? So for 2009, it's going to be just Jim Beams and Coke.

All i want for christmas is you

2008-12-25T00:26:00.001-08:00

On the 23rd, i had a christmas party that i was proud of although i think it could have been much better. The party was rather fun for me and i hope it had been fun for everybody. Presents exchanging was okay this year i think. After the party, we went to yishun demp and sang songs while isaac and kenneth played the guitar. Then it was supper at PNL before everyone headed home. It was a fun night.

On the 24th, isaac and i went around shopping for last minute gifts before meeting my family and siying peiwen alvin to go fetch jialong from the army. Went for dinner then went home. All of a sudden, i had the worse tummy ache ever in my life and it was really unbearable. It kinda spoiled everyone's mood for christmas and they left for gardens to celebrate while i went to the doctor's. Assholic doctor charged me 80 dollars. He said it was gastric infection. Ate my medicine and slept till today.

25th, today. Woke up and found 2 presents by my bed. One of them from my mother was a Chanel Cologne. Happy and disappointed at the same time. The other one was a T-shirt from FCUK from my cousin. Well, i would have been really really happy if someone just got me the The Dark Knight dvd with Joker at the front or any other dvds.... oH well, at least i got presents.
Anyway, i rate this the worse christmas ever in my life. thank you very much.

WARNING, do not visit pearlyn's blog if you are allergic to ultra sweetness. After reading her blog, it just made me feel worse because her life seems so wonderful now. hahah oh well woman! No need to listen to one side only liao! :)

Merry Christmas to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When i see your face, it makes me smile, it makes me smile.

2008-12-16T09:19:00.000-08:00

I tried running but i wasn't fast enough, troubles would aways catch up with me. I'm only 19, is there really that much for me to be responsible for? Why can't the world be just full of rainbows and happy people?

I wouldn't want to think that i'm close to you because i think you'd just turn away in just a second.

I want a dog, i want it badly. A dog would be nice, to accompany me through the lonely times, to lend a listening ear, to hug and to show care and concern, to give me it's fullest attention at all times. I don't want just a dog, i want a friend.

It doesn't happen only anually.

2008-12-10T09:27:00.000-08:00

Last Saturday was the annual 'Groupie' Annual Dinner. The afternoon was spent at isaac's house making something for jialong. Isaac edited the photos, i cut them and peiwen pasted them. lol. Then B&J's chunkfest damn boring lah. Then the dinner. Of course, there were much fun and laughter. Let's allow the pictures to speak for themselves.

2008-12-09T08:02:00.000-08:00

Life has been kind of great nowadays. I've been living the life without worries, no future and no responsibilities. Everyone of my friend has been fun and great, couldn't expect more from them. I hope that i can live life the way it is for a long long time. Then and again, there are the fears and the thoughts. Oh and also, it isn't my holidays yet. I still have to go for classes tomorrow and thursday before my class really ends. Please let me complete my project fast so that i dont have to go school on thurs.

Why do i always fall for the wrong person?

Rosewood

2008-11-30T10:49:00.000-08:00

I didn't know where to go, i didn't know who to call. I didn't know what to do.

Because i dont like my life.

2008-11-29T05:24:00.000-08:00

I live in a condo but i freaking sleep in the living room. There i am trying to sleep, some stranger is watching tv in front of me. There i am trying to sleep, some one is happily munching beside me. There i am trying to draw, some one is making so much noise i can't concentrate. I'm the one without the room and i'm also the one without the car. Now my parents wants me to get a fucking cert from U. My sister lives the life of a princess and now wants to give up studies to go work in Campus Crusade, straining the relationship of the family more and also earning 1.2k per month. Wow woman, like 1.2k is going to pay for your car, shopping and high maintanence life. My brother is going into NS alrd so i have nothing to say. I just hope he will snap out of it when he gets out. Can the heavens give me somthing that i can thank them for? Like probably a handsome face, cash or perhaps in the most simplest way, happiness? Everything around me just seem so fake for god's damn sake.

Okay, i just tried to see how the other side of me is reacting to current life. Well after all the complaints, i feel much better. Alright, i'm going to leave this post here to remind me not to complain because i sound damn bad.

Green is the new black

2008-11-28T08:15:00.000-08:00

HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY TO TAN SI YING! I've dont know how much to thank the heavens for letting me know this friend. She is a very wondeful person and brings happiness to wherever she goes.

Maybe i just think too much.

Today & Tomorrow.

2008-11-27T06:14:00.000-08:00

I'm damn freaking bored at home now. Seriously damn freaking bored. I have no idea what's wrong but i'm just freaking freaking bored.

Smile and you'll never fall.

2008-11-26T08:07:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, the highlight was the celebration of weehow's birthday at Botak Jone's. It wasn't the dinner that was the ultimate; It was the "ice & water" event at the playground. I haven't had such fun for a long long time. It was like childhood-ness all over again.

Chow passed his license today. Went gardens to celebrate. It was rather funny, i didnt know why i could get so high with just one beer. Maybe i just needed to let loose for a moment and forget about whatever is filling up my head. Before that, royston was nice to come over to check out what's wrong with the internet. Apparently, my internet is afraid of him because it behaved very well when he was here. Hahah. Had dinner from chomp chomp and we watched movies (him,alvin&i) before heading for the bus stop.

So, here is something interesting. Currently, in the hollwood teen realm, there are two groups of people in a battle. Hahah.

Team Jonas/Selena/Demi

VS.

Team Miley/Justin/Taylor

Then, there are the friends who are caught in the middle.

Miley was reportedly dumped by Nick Jonas who went for Selena Gomez while Taylor Swift was dumped by Joe Jonas for Camilla Belle. Currently, Miley has stepped up her game with boyfriend - Justin Gaston who is a underwear model. Taylor Swift was reportly very sore about being dumped and is going all out to destroy Joe Jonas. Kevin Jonas, was seen wearing a Tee shirt that says "Team Selena & Demi" on the streets quite some time ago. So, who will win the fued?

Now, as i've said, Joe reportedly ditched Taylor for Camilla. So do you think it was a good thing?

To be frank, i think both of them looks like a cat, pretty ones though. I haven't watched any of Camilla's movies yet so i can't comment on her talents but i'd say i think Taylor's songs are rather nice. I prefer Taylor personally.

As for Nick, who do you think he should have picked?

This is a hard pick. I really like both of them and i think they are both sensational. Oh well, i'd go with Miley because she is a bigger hit at her age compared to Hilary and Lindsay put together. I like to respect the "original".

So, which couple looks hotter? or rather cuter?

Un-

2008-11-24T06:45:00.000-08:00

Un-kissed, Un-embraced, Un-cherished & Un-loved.

I'd very much like not to go to school. I'd very much like to go to roam around bookstores and cd shops. I'd very much like to sit by the poolside, eat muffins and read books. I'd very much like to sit in a theatre all day and watch movies for non-stop.

It's rather saddening, to know that i'll never feel happy. I'll never feel happy because i know that i'm not born into the place i want to be born in. I don't look like the way i want to look. I do not have the life i want to have. Well, i'm not the only person in the world who is experiencing it so i guess there's something called :"live with it, asshole".

However, in life there's something you've got to experience. That would be something called True Love. When you're dying and you have flashbacks of your life, you'd be thinking what was your life about. Was it the money you made? The many times you got promoted? How much sex you had? Or was it the true things that matters, like love and friendship? The smiles of your loved ones, the laughter of friends and the warmth of family. These are the things that truly matter even when you're dead. It is because they would be the ones to remember you in their hearts, allowing you to truly live on. As when we die, we don't really die; We've just moved on and lived in people's memories. You, will decide how you live after you die.

The night was dark, it was as if i was born blind,
Scared and helpless i felt,
I felt around hoping i'd find something,
Anything would be nice,
for nothing is worse than being alone in a place where light no longer exists.
save me, before the night engulfs.

I thought i lost you.

2008-11-23T02:48:00.000-08:00

Stevie Wonder - I just called to say i love you.

I just called to say i love you, i just called to say how much i care, i do.

I just called to say i love you, And i mean it from the bottom of my heart.

Miley Cyrus & John Travolta - I thought i lost you.

Nobody listens to me, don’t hear a single thing I've said Say anything to soothe me, anything to get you from my head Don't know how really I feel, Cause it's the faith that makes it like I don't care Don’t know how much it hurts to turn around like you were never there Like somehow you could be the break and I could walk away from the promises we made And swore we’d never break!!

I thought I lost you when you ran away to try to find me I thought I’d never your sweet face again. I turned around and you were gone and on and on the days went but I kept the moments that we were in 'Cause I hoped in my heart, that you would come back to me my friend And now I got you, but I thought I lost you!

I felt so empty out there, and there were days I had my doubts but I knew I'd find you somewhere because I knew I couldn't live without you in my life for one more day and I swore I'd never break a promise we made

I thought I lost you when you ran away to try to find me I thought I’d never your sweet face again. I turned around and you were gone and on and on the days went but I kept the moments that we were in 'Cause I hoped in my heart, that you would come back to me, my friend And now I got you, but I thought I lost you!

I told myself I wouldn’t sleep 'til I searched the world from sea to sea

I made a wish upon a star, I turned around and there you were

And now here we are, are here we are I thought I lost you

I thought I lost you too.

The song is from the animated movie "Bolt". I saw the synopsis and i think i'm going to watch it. Anybody with me?

Last night was... well, hahah "what a night". Although the place wasnt great, the people there just made me feel very at home.

The light and the water

2008-11-22T00:53:00.000-08:00

It's a saturday today. I just came home from my cousin's ROM. Anyway, pretty much stayed home these few days to watch, well, dvds. I wasn't very sure about renting Moulin Rouge but since they didn't have Good Will Hunting, i guess i'd take my chances and go for the "critically acclaimed" film. So, Moulin Rouge actually made it's way to my top 20 films of all time(currently)! It wasn't just any musical; The songs fit in perfectly, Nicole Kidman was just absolutely stunning as Satine and the whole thing was funny at the right time yet ended dramatically touching. After that, i watched Over her Dead Body and The Dangerous lives of the Altar Boys. They are both okay, not bad. Yeap. It's raining now and i absolutely love such a day.

Q & A

2008-11-17T09:56:00.000-08:00

Woke up earlier than usual today to go to school. Realised then that the deadline for the project has been postponed to thurs. What a relieve. Spent the whole time in school reading a book. Started and ended on the same day. Q & A. Now a major motion picture named "Slumdog Millionaire". It was a wonderful and touching story but i only realised that i've finished the book before when i reached chapter 4.

Spent all the money i had in my wallet on 3 dvds. There was this big sales going on so i couldn't resist checking it out. I found only 3 valuable treasures. Pirates of the Carribean : Dead Man's Chest, The Lookout & a oldie, West side story. This adds to the only collection i have which consists of Titanic and Penelope. Well, 5 down and thousands more to go!

I like my aimless yet peaceful life for now.

Candy for the eyes

I just spent 2 days at home, watching dvds and reading books. I absolutely love such a life. If only weekdays wouldn't come and i wouldn't have to think about school stuffs when monday hits me in the face. I haven't completed the dress that is due tomorrow even when mine's the easiest one to complete amongst the class. I suck.

Okay, to make myself happier, i looked up my eye candies.

Here are the stars (4 great actresses 1 singer) that i'd love to date.

Anne Hathaway, Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, Ellen Page, Ashley Tisdale.

Here are the guys i want to be.

Kevin Zegers, Shia Labeouf, Emile Hirsch,Robert Pattinson,Joseph Gordon Levitt.

Even when they're above 40, they look hotter than any woman i know.

Marcia Cross, Kate Winslet, Kate Beckinsale, Felicity Huffman, Cate Blanchett.

With so many beautiful people around, there are two thinks you think about.

1st - It's hard to deny angels' existence.

2nd - It's very hard not to feel depressed at the same time. hahah. Goodnight and have a nice day.

Carpe Diem

So, the word was used frequently in the movie Dead Poet's Society. I think that it's a very wonderful movie. Comedic and dramatic at the right times with a meaning to it. Robin Williams just made his way into my top actors list. Carpe Diem - Seize the Day. Yes i would like to live everyday of my life to the absolute fullest but well, i really don't know what to do. What should i do? What do i want to do?

I just finished watching Transamerica again for the 3rd time. Near perfect movie thanks to great performances by Felicity Huffman and Kevin Zegers. Every time i watch it, i can't help but feel very bitter about Felicity not winning an Oscar for that role. I just read an article that said that most Acadmy Voters recently admitted that they didnt watch Transamerica so they voted for Reese Witherspoon. Ohh fuck you people. To me, Felicity Huffman is every bit an award winning actress who deserves more.

Oscar Buzz

Yes, it's near. My favourite time of the year is coming, of course it's the time for Oscar Predictions. So, what/who are the frontrunners? Most of the movies i've not watched yet but i'm super eager to because they're supposed to be damn good!

Slumdog Millionaire, The curious case of Benjamin Button, Doubt, The Wrestler, The Changeling, Frost/Nixon, Revolutionary Road, The Reader, The Dark Knight & Milk are all heading towards Oscar glory.

The big questions that are bothering me are :

Will The Dark Knight score big at the Oscar's? Or will Heath Ledger even get nominated?
No doubt about Dark Knight earning nominations in the technical sections but will it score a Best Picture Nomination? Well.... not really. The academy has never been much of a fan of such movies although it earned a huge buck in the theaters. As for Heath, the marvelous actor gave one of the most iconic performances ever as the Joker and i'd say a nomination in the Best Supporting category would be the very minimum. As for winning, the chances are very slim. Out of the actors/actresses that got a posthumus nomination, only Peter Finch won. Although i really hope the late Heath would get a trophy because he was one who could always give more.

Kate Winslet, Revolutionary Road and The Reader.
When will Kate Winslet ever freaking get an Oscar? She has always been giving constantly applausable performances yet every time she gets nominated, some one-timer suddenly popular actress would just win. After the debate of which movie she would enter for Best Actress ( The academy would not allow 2 nominations in a category and if she enters for both, she would split her votes), Kate has decided to enter Revolutionary Road for Best Actress in a Leading Role. Although she is on every scene in The Reader, she has decided to go for Supporting in that movie. So, will she finally get her little man?

So, what are my choices?

Life has been a blur lately. I can't remember what i did for the past week. I don't know why i'm doing the things i've been doing. It has been a rather aimless week for me. My sis just dropped out of Uni to go work at Campus Crusade. The pay is rather low there and there's no future in it. She says that it's where God is leading her to but i seriously think she is ruining her life. For a big spender like her, she's really insane to think she can be satisfied with just 1k per month. She is just going to shop and ask my mum to pay. It's not that i have no faith in her, i just know her too well. Plus, my dad is rather disappointed that no one in our house is ever going to get a degree before starting work. My mum says there are still the 3 of us. She must be crazy. By the time jlo get his degree, he will be 30 when he starts work. jle is still young and he's not the studying type and you think i'll get a degree? well, not before hearing this. I don't know why i'm saying all these also. Pointless. Damn stressed up. I'm so gonna run away from school. haha.
