hi

avril moment

i'm having a bit of an avril moment

i'm just listening to her first two albums

it reminds me of when i used to listen to her in high school

and whilst listening

i remember that her first two albums were actually pretty good

(yes, i bought them)

then she turn crap

that is 'hey hey you you i don't like your boyfriend' crap

anyway,

i love this song: nobody's home

Well, I couldn't tell you
Why she felt that way
She felt it every day
And I couldn't help her
I just watched her make
The same mistakes again

What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems
Don't know where she belongs
Where she belongs

She wants to go home
But nobody's home
That's where she lies
Broken inside
With no place to go
No place to go
To dry her eyes
Broken inside

in other news,
i think she looks really good in her proactiv ad

password annoyance

this is ridiculous

i'm trying to reset my monash password

because i'm forgotten it

because after 3 years they made me change it

and so i'm trying to change it now

but they keep rejecting it

1. plain rejected, because i entered the secret question wrong

2. rejected because my password was based on a dictionary word (really?)

3. it was too LONG

i think this is why i can't remember my password in the first place

sigh.

The Cape

Just started watching 'The Cape'

its a new tv series, which is pretty much a comic book superhero series

and its kind of like Batman

fighting crime and corruption

though

as lame as it sounds

or looks

it's pretty interesting

well, i enjoyed the first two episodes anyway.

plus, i really like the clever naming of 'Orwell'

as in how she's all seeing but faceless

which is the same as Big Brother in George Orwell's 1984

well, i'm hoping that's why she's named that anyway.

plus, Summer Glau is really hot

and she really reminds me of Olivia Wilde.

Chess is also really creepy

the actor, James Frain, is really good at being villains

he was super creepy as Franklin in True Blood

so the basic plot of 'The Cape' is that Vince Farraday

who was just a cop

gets framed as 'Chess' who had assasinated the chief of police

whilst in actual fact he was framed by the actual 'Chess', Peter Fleming

who is slowly gaining control of the whole city

through its police force.

and well Vincent Faraday was 'killed' by an explosion

though in actual fact he survived

but everyone believes him dead, including his wife and son.

he gets rescued by a bunch of circus bank robbers

and eventually gets trained by Max to be 'the Cape'

so that he can take out Peter Fleming

who destroyed his life.

Enter 'Orwell' who is the city's eye

the faceless person exposing police corruption

she eventually teams up with 'the Cape' against 'Peter Fleming'.

the show is pretty dark

but I find it quite interesting

can't wait til the next episode

:)

more community

i've finished catching up on community

and now waiting on the new ep on 20 jan

:)

and i love the show

i keep going on and on about it to others

though they've never watched it before

:)

and i still love abed

who's pretty much a superhuman robot

and abed & troy together

more of my favourite troy and abed endings

"Troy and Abed in the Morning!"

"Bert and Ernie"

also, my favourite episodes thus far are:

1. the modern warfare, paint ball episode

it was a damn awesome episode

add to the fact that i want to play that game of paintball

it'd be so fun

2. the mafia/chicken episode

i love how troy named the monkey 'annie's boobs'

3. the zombie episode

i usually don't like zombie anything

but this was written really well

and was really funny

♥

"We always used to watch the shows that SHE wanted to watch. I hate Glee, I hate it. I don't understand the appeal at all." Jeff (whilst crying) - Community

(this quote is only funny if you watch Community & know what Jeff is like)

TV: community

a show i started watching and LOVE just last night

is Community

its so funny :)

its about a bunch of adults at a not-so-highly-rated college

so most of them are returning back to college

(i.e. theres like a 60 y.o. man and a 40 something divorced lady, amongst others)

though two of them actually came from high school

and so the basic plot is that this guy started a Spanish "study group"

so he can date one of the the girls in his class
but one thing led to another and they actually became a Spanish study group.

its funnier than it sounds

my favourite character is Abed

he's so weird and hilarious :)

i especially enjoy the Abed and Troy endings to the episodes

you'd definitely enjoy it, if you liked arrested development

its similar sort of humour

♥♥

2011; new year, new aims, same girl.

sorry about blogging properly for the end of last year

i was just SO busy.

so this year, i have new blogging aims

i aim to blog at least twice a week

plus one extra tv rant blog a week (if i have something to rant about)

its a lot more relaxed than doing a blog a day

which though i did have fun with

but it became a little tedious by the end.

though, on reflection

i seriously can't believe its 2011 already

the year went by so quickly

that i wasn't even that excited for christmas

because i felt like it was christmas not that long ago.

but this year i think will be really challenging for me

having to juggle student leadership at rmit CU

as well as at church

but i hope i will be ok

since i only have three subjects each semester

hopefully.

though i really need to learn how to manage my time better

honestly,

i don't do it very well during uni at managing my time.

so maybe one of my resolutions this year is to manage my time better

and not be so lazy.

other than that i don't really have any resolutions

because i'll probably break them.

anyway,

love always ♥♥

survivor nicaragua finale !!

currently watching survivor finale

(so stop reading if you don't want to be spoiled)

but its loading rather slow

so i'm a quarter way through

& i really really really want fabio/judd to win

but i've just finished watching when they commemorate each of the players gone

and they usually say nice things about each one of them

the funniest though was tyrone's

because all holly said was 'tyrone the fireman'

HAHAHA

could they seriously not say

oh yeah, he was a nice guy or something.

also, after i heard naonka's spiel/explanation

i was like 'are you serious?'

she's seriously deluded

like she was saying how she played a smart game and that she was nice.

no. and no.

1. she stole food (stupid move)

2. she's in-your-face and rude, yelling at people for no reason

3. she's a backstabber

4. she's a quitter

5. she knew she was going to quit and that she was going to have food that night, yet she still didn't give up her place for reward so that others can eat.

so no, definitely not a smart game. not even close.

and she's just painted herself as being one of the most rude and selfish people that has ever played survivor.

-----------

just finished watching final challenge

FABIO JUST WON FINAL IMMUNITY

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

i'm calling it out right here

fabio will win.

i'm about 80% sure.

it's my prediction anyway.

------------------

hahaha, so fabio's just playing on everyone's minds now

making everyone paranoid

LOL.

i totally knew it

he totally played up that he was so stupid and blonde in the beginning

but slowly we are seeing that he is quite smart

i remember that episode when they were talking about freud

and he actually knew about the iceberg/subconscious theory

and it was then i knew that he was playing dumb

so that everyone would discount him as a threat

and last episode

when he saw his mum and he was all emotional

that was so cute

:)

------------------

so holly was just voted off

i liked holly better than sash or chase though

sash is freaking slimy

and a horrible liar.

& chase is indecisive and annoying

and a backstabber.

want fabio to win.

badly.

--------------

just finished watching final tribal council

and i found it so funny

especially dan and jane.

so it's looking like a split between fabio and chase.

i still think its fabio though.

-------------

FABIO CUT HIS HAIR

i liked his long shaggy hair

haha

though he does look cute with short hair

it brings out his blue eyes

he reminds me of chace crawford with his short hair

♥

-----------

the votes are read

as i predicted it was a

split between fabio and chase

and for a second

i actually though chase won

because it was chase 4 fabio 2

and then it was so nail biting

it was tie chase 4 fabio 4

one vote left

thats sooo close

and the winner is:

FABIO!

yes yes yes yes yes!

:)

i'm not good at 'goodbyes'

tonight i had to say goodbye to a few people

who i probably won't see anymore

two of them because they are moving back to their home country

singapore & malaysia

which is sad,

and i've realised

i really suck at saying goodbyes

as in,

i have no idea what to say

and i just go quiet and awkward.

:S

warrigul mission

was pretty epic.

and i'm off

be back next monday :)

hp7

just watch HARRY POTTER tonight

loved it ♥

though a bit puzzled at the number of friends i know that have neither read the books and are not up to date with the movies

that they would watch this latest one

because they were quite lost at some points

i must admit, i have been catching myself up with the movies

which i enjoy

though its a bit annoying that they can't add all of it into the movies

and some things, they changes a little bit

but i like watching anyway

(btw, if you have not seen the movie and/or read the books , you probably shouldn't read on. you have been warned.)

so, in the movie, it was a bit strange because i always pictured bill weasley with short hair

and being very neat and sleek and all

not some long haired, hippy-eque hair

and all the more because he was marrying fleur

also, i miss tonk's pink hair.

also, though i have read the books

i did forget who died and when.

and so it was sad when hedwig died

:(

and mad-eye moody

:(

and DOBBY

:(

my favourite quote of dobby's in the movie:

"Dobby never meant to kill, simply maim, or severely injure"

dooby was so cute

so sad when he died :(

can't wait til the next movie

YES!

but its in july

BOO!

though it was a bit annoying that last movie they didnt have the scene where dumbledore talks about the horcruxes

because it did seem like the movie they were pretty aimless

at least in the book, they knew or had a inkling about what the horcruxes were

even though, they didn't know where they are

plus, harry and ginny were supposed the break up at the end of the last movie

which didn't happen.

i kind of want to read all the books again

but i also can't be bother because i know it'll take me agesss

maybe before the last movie then.

i feel so sick right now, i want to cry :(
i've only had like 3 hours sleep
but i keep waking up in the middle of the night to cough out junk in my lungs
and i have to wait about an hour before doctors open
:(

sorry for not being regularly back

(if that makes sense)

back regularly

(sounds better, i think)

i'm just been so busy

yet not busy at the same time.

i think i just like not doing anything in particular that have to do with deadlines

or HAVING to do something.

just chilaxing, ya'know.

at the same time i do actually have a lot to do

which i have not done

because i have not done anything this week

even though i did have a lot of spare time.

long story short, sorry for not posting again regularly.

i've been busy/lazy.

i really should go to bed now, work tomorrow

then CU ball afterwards

:)

survivor rant

(for those who actually care when i rant about survivor, which pretty much all of you don't, but i like ranting to nobody anyway)

YES!

marty from survivor is FINALLY eliminated

took them way too long to eliminate him

honestly.

sash and brenda should have voted him out a looong time ago

the time they voted out kelly b.

but they dragged it out about another 4 weeks til they finally voted him out

and its not like they didn't have get the chance to.

though i do see the 'minority alliance' being the final 3 in the end

because they have 2 immunity idols

except i think that they might end up blindsiding brenda near the end

because she's a strong player

both strategically and physically

so i'm thinking it will probably be sash and naonka in the end

not sure about the third person

i do hope its brenda,

because i like her and i want her to win (though she did get a bit cocky this ep, but i put it down to editing)

but i have a hunch that it won't be.

naonka is annoying but fun to watch at the same time

as in she just acts like a bitch and i know say if i were on the island

she'd drive me nuts and i'd be so pissed off with her actions

but she makes good tv

and so i'm pretty sure she'll be in the final 3 because she's pissed a lot of people off

and so the other 2 are taking her because she won't win any jury votes

the problem i have with her

is that she justifies her actions by just saying 'that's just the way i am'

which is stupid

because that does not justify stealing food and being outright rude to people.

the other person i like, apart from brenda

is fabio (jud)

he's just so funny

though i think he acts a lot dumber than he is

i mean he knew about freud and the 10% conscious 90% subconcious stuff, he can't be that dumb

but at the same time

he's not super smart

as in he still puts his head in the fire and pees in the pool.

he's just soo funny to watch.

apart from them, the others are ok

i like kelly purple and chase.

holly's really weird, and i like jane but i don't want her to win.

and the others are just ok.

ok, finish rant for now.

til next episode.

the social network

so me and jacky went to watch 'the social network' today at the nova

side note: the nova's so damn cheap on mondays, we went before 4 and the tickets were only $6. originally i was expecting it to be $9. guess we'll be going to nova from now on :)

though, when we went into the theatre

there was surprisingly a lot of old people

and by old people i define it about 40 years and over

i think it was about 65% old people

seriously.

ok, so 'the social network' was pretty good.

not as good as i expected, though i wasn't sure what to expect

but i'd heard a lot of reviews about how good it was and that increased my expectations of the movie

also, the very first scene when mark was talking to erica

i was a bit lost with all the colloquial talk

and both me and jacky were a bit confused

but we kind of got the jist

i also just discovered that the winklevoss twins were played by just one guy.

that's impressive editing

if i hadn't looked it up, i would have thought that the actually had twins to play the winklevoss twins

but then i knew i'd seen that guy before so i had to look it up

and yes i had seen him before, he was in gossip girl.

the movie was pretty good,

it was edited well, i liked the very last scene

but i felt like the whole movie ended a little abruptly as well.

after that me and jacky went to buy books at koorong for church

and i found it really fun looking for the books in the store

though jacky wanted to at first just get the people to help us

but i was like, nooooooo.

let's just say i really like doing scavenger hunts

so i wanted to do it myself.

we ended up buying 25 books, and only when i got home did i realise that we dobuled up n a book

not quite sure how it happened

and i can't return it

because i stamped it already.

oops.

i need to go to bed now,

need to wake up early to get to balwyn to a friends house

i decided that im going to take a 40 tram ride to his house

instead of taking a faster way but involves me having to get a zone 2 ticket.

yes, i am super broke right now.

sigh.

♥

garden state

i watched garden state tonight

i had borrowed the dvd from the library a while ago
i quite enjoyed it
though at first it was a little draining and slow
though i do understand why it was that way

it was to reflect the numbness he felt

but still.

but natalie portman's character, sam, is so cute

though i thought that they dressed her a little too young

as in i felt like she was meant to be under 18 years old while in actual fact she was at least 21

but i understand why they did that too

my favourite scene was by far the scene where they are in garbage bags in the rain and yell

(see photo)

it was even more hilarious after they yell

when andrew and sam finally kiss/make out, and its so awkward because mark is standing next to them trying to look away

that make me laugh out loud.

its also funny because the guy who plays sheldon (from big bang theory) is in it

and he also plays a nerd character as well

though its brief

yep, i really quite liked the movie

i really like the idea of him being awakened to his emotions

and him no longer feeling numb.

thought the ending was a little predicatble

him coming back and getting off the plane

but, enjoyable movie nonetheless

♥

freeeee

so i finished exams today.

it so good to be free again.

FREEDOM!!!!!!!!

i actually didn't go out like after my exam like i had planned

because i was super knackered and wanted to go home.

though when i got home i didn't end up sleeping anyway

and i decided to catch up on the episodes of survivor and antm i had missed.

i enjoy being free

i was like "i'm going to bake a cake."

and i did.

just one more

can't wait til friday ,
summer here i come :)
