Of Money, Of >.>


Money has never bothered me more than now... I want money, I want big money. Anyone out there who has an extra half a million ringgit you dunno where to spend? It'll be good investment I tell ya'... =P. Won't really blame em, even if I could. Haihz... everywhere around the world, people are collecting donations for China, soooo much money...@@ If only I could have some... Did China even ask for those donations? ''Please...we need money to buy cement and wood we already own in/on our big mountains'', ''Please...we need money to dig out more money still buried under remains of fallen buildings'' =P. I think China should be able to take care of themselves la... giving too much help would be like looking down on them *insert looking up emoticon*

*just visiting ignorant-self


My dream came late, much too late, haihz... like 16 years old gal having first period kinda late, =='' I seek recognition from myself for myself, but why couldn't I get it...haihz... out at sea with nothing to hold...


I wanna go back and take more subjects/ should've taken risks...haihz... cos I thought, NO, SPM is far too important, take no chances...and look how it came out...determination sux, or it just wasn't enough... >.>

I wanna re-do my interview, go for outstanding instead of moderate/ my mistake there, >.>

I wanna... I wanna go to Caltech, or Columbia U. @@ +.+ == >.>

I wanna believe that dreams aren't just meant for sleeping... >.>

I just wanna be happy... >.>



I am scorned... Some people might say ''Aiya, what passed had passed, stop thinking about it la...''. True, but thats not how I roll, man... I'm that kind of person who moves on while looks behind me every once in a while, thats just how I am... can't really explain why...

Would you look at that, it has been quite a while... I honestly believe that this is my best one yet. @@ Emo-ness rules when it comes to these things...lol...




Out At Open Sea

Feeling like a piece of paper under a rock,
Dread of nothingness, of insignificance,
of a world where his is on the tallest pillar;
A world cold stared with empty winds,
Unwanting world...

Stupid rock,
Stupid, invincible, immune, admirable rock;
Caught him out at open sea,
Shattered what used will be.

Nothing,
Nothing more is there to grasp,
Out at open sea;
Nothing,
Nothing beats this yearning,
This yearning could not meek.

Suddenly,
It just feels easier to give in,
As gold turns to rust,
As a seat returns to dust;
Out at open sea,
Sunk,
In the blaze of tainted glory,
Upon seemingly pathless yellow wood,
He is out at open sea.

Beaten down,
Out at open sea,
Waves crushed thrice,
Old wounds unfold;
As a raptured soul bleeding love,
He sees last of aquatic glow,
Darkness claims his being,
Non-entity fills him within;
Indeed,
He is hollow...

DAVID COOK WINS!!!!

Yay~...hehe...so proud, very glad. This is last entry on American Idol. The finale show was great, one and a half hours of greatness... I really liked the part where OneRepublic did Apologize with Archuleta! Though the collabo arrangement had some problems... However, they are gonna do it all over again next January, @@, hope I can watch it then too...
In case you still don't know, this is your American Idol Season 7 winner!!









T.T So many ppl kena matriks after appeal...but I didn't appeal...T.T *goes emo... >.>

It isn't always right to listen to your parents... ==

AI FINALS!

Hmm...I don't think I'll go into much details this week, even though this is like the most important/imperative week of the whole season, @@. To me, the whole night was a little disappointing , none of the bang bang and a tad less on the ''wow'' factor...

The show started with boxing theme and they had both Davids in red and blue robes and boxing gloves, =='' with the Las Vegas-feel-announcer they have on WWE. Archie won the coin toss and chose to go 2nd, which was the right choice. David Cook started the night with a somewhat soft rock song by U2 chosen for him, it was not the right song I think for him because a rocker should start a show with a hard-rockin song to get things going, wake the audience up... It was just good but I really like that note ''scoop'' he did at the end. 2nd song was a new song composed for AI which the Davids have to choose among 10 songs. He sang his like a band lead singer but Simon thought it wasn't much of a winner's song, I kinda agree but it COULD be a winner's song, =P. I agree with Randy saying the song is not much but he did all he could AND maintain that rock feel he has. For the 3rd song, he did a new song even though in the past the contestants usually pick the best he had in the past. Strumming the guitar...giving a heart-felt performance that touched my heart, personal comments was ''wow...''. He cried at the end of the song, haha... the lyrics really fitted somehow...it really was a beautiful performance. Simon praised Archie throughout the night, slightly unpleased with Cook, same goes for Randy. Cook was being different, the original he was said to be?

Archie...David Archuleta, not my type =P, but undeniably, I admit that he could sing the phone book and he was really really in the zone tonight... He has a winner's vocals, thats for sure and he picked the right songs,like a full course meal... He was all the same even in different songs, but great vocals in all of em... The last song however, I think he did it better the first time, this time it was just...''not enough feel''. The first time he did it was like ''WOW'' with shiny black leather jacket...blue and white lightings...and a microphone stand, it was the whole ''feel'' pakage...

Okay, if people want different, go for Cook, but if they want cheesy-always-been-like-that-since-Kelly Clarkson, go for Archuleta. Simon le...said that Archie won the night...made it hard for Cook to win, but all wellz... it really really doesn't matter who wins. Looking forward to the results show, its gonna be great!

Ok, I know its a little too late (it is late) but I'm still going to try it because I've seen it work for someone else? This totally goes against my principle. In my principle, nothing I play in my mind happens, Plane crashes...deaths...picturing unforeseen serroundings...scenarios...alien invasions...siege in GRSS...ruling another dimension...(way off course ==). My theory is the more you think about it, the less chance you'll get it? However, by making yourself not thinking about ''it'', your actually thinking about ''it''. Get it? Somehow, that could be a philosophy...or a random pile of BS. Never mind that, here goes...

I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP!

I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP! I WANT JPA SCHOLARSHIP!

I typed every bit of it... There is so much more I can give if I can get JPA scholarship... I don't give a damn where they send me, but if I could choose, I'd want to go to Columbia University...

AI TOP 3

Hey, the post per week...late one day, cos it doesn't really matter anymore, not to me in this condition... >.> . Everyone had to sing 3 songs this week, to get to the Finale next week which 2 of em will do the same thing again.

David A. opened the show, expectedly amazing but that also means that there's nothing outstanding. Starting with a ballad so mellow and sad (not worth mentioning name) somehow really kills the mood, but all in all a good performance. For the 2nd song, he did ''With You'' by Chris Brown. It was really an eye-opener! Does he read my blog complaining about him or is it THAT obvious that he's getting boring, haha... Even so, it was kinda a fatal attempt because that song definitely/totally does NOT fit him, but thumb up for trying. For the 3rd song, the producers chose another mellow love ballad for him, which to me did him no good at all. Expect him to be in the finals, foreseen ever since the early parts of the show...BUT, just like last season, someone who has not been in the bottom 2/3 was voted off, it could happen...

Syesha Mercado came after Archie, since the judges chose the first song, Randy chose ''If I Ain't Got You'' by Alicia Keys which is like one of the my favourite RnB songs of all time! She did great with the song, I really though she could out-sing Alicia Keys with that high range of hers... For the 2nd song, she chose the song "Fever". The song kinda blew me away, cos she worked that sex appeal good... @@ and her style of singing is becoming quite distinct. I somehow saw Beyonce in there somewhere... However, the judges didn't agree and they did not like it. Same goes for the 3rd song, which is more up -beat and ''high'' song. Paula keeps saying that it does not reflect on the personality of the singer.

David Cook was the 3rd contestant. Simon picked an old female melodious song for the rocker, mostly because he wants David to show some originality that we love. It was almost great because he pulled some high-rocker notes to finish the song, like how he did with ''Music of The Night''. For the 2nd song, he picked ''Dare You To Move'' by Switchfoot! OMG...i've been playing that song in my head for it fits how I feel currently. When he sang slightly slow, low pitch i was still doing okay, but as I sang along to the chorus part, my eyes started to blur, I was almost gonna cry. Wow...channeling all the emotions bottled up so long through a song, and what a song it was... Luckily, he had to end the song pretty fast, making me and Paula wanting more. Cross my heart, if David Cook sang the whole song, I would have cried. For the 3rd song, the producers chose ''I don't want to miss a thing'' by Aerosmith. That song is LEGEND...@@ David did quite a good job, but I would still much prefer the original. So proud I said his name during JPA interview, although I'm not sure if it jeopardised my chance... Even Simon said he won the night.



I'm at open sea with nothing to grasp...its easier to give in...



今天，我哏咽了。。。2 Iris-Goo Goo Dolls, but there's still much inside...

I planned to publish a joyful post stating stuff I did over the longest holiday, but no....




I'm all bitter right now, this is gonna take a while...

Iron Hammer Of The Blockbusters

Seeing news of such a movie nailing the blockbusters indeed raises an eyebrow. Just gotta see it! See how this movie makes 8 to 9 digits of numbers of dollars per week, man! If you still don't get what movie am I talking about, you need to rub the rust off your antenna, XD.

This Marvel superhero brings back subtle childhood memories when I started to fall into the ''kancah'' of cartoons. I can't remember much about it, but I still have some photographic images in my head about the cartoon. The movie for starters tells how this superhero came about, which I never knew, but I doubt that thats the original story about him. This movie pretty much has the same concept of the first Spiderman movie. From storyline to villains, they are pretty much the same... The graphic is simply amazing, I see similarities in NFS games in terms of graphic, just that its in a movie.

Definitely action-packed, juiced with the bang bang boom factor with just a pint of humour. Its a great movie, two thumbs up! I won't even mind seeing it again, only if its free, XD. Its totally the hot sauce in the cinema! Lol...

AI TOP 4

2 more weeks until its over and this weekly continuous recaps/reviews will be over and I'll have to find some other things to blog about. I think I'll pass on So U Think You Can Dance which premiers the week after AI Finale. Ah wells...

This week's theme is Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame. I'm quite unfamiliar with that territory because most of em sounds old-school to me.

David Cook, first up this week, singing the song ''Hungry Like The Wolf" which I have never heard of, looked and sounded something like Daughtry. It was an okayy okayy performance, not enough to make people jump out of their seats. However, he does have that rock-star look/feel. For the 2nd song, it was actually the theme song from CSI NY! Eeee~ he slowed it down, toned it down, bulit it up, like he always do, but there was a part in the end that he built it up so high it kinda tumbled down to fast, left it hanging a bit. The judges liked it though...

Syesha was 2nd up, I though she would closed the show considering she's the last female contestant out there. We got a lil bit insight about how she cried being the last girl, blah blah... For the first song, she sang ''Proud Mary'' by Tina Turner, LOL. She even wore that silver-ish bling bling dress and brown hair! Total imitation attempts. When she was singing, I keep thinking about that scene in Miss Congeniality 2 where they had to do the song in a drag queen contest in some night club. Syesha even did a bit of that dance routine! That girl is either getting desperate or she really wanna have some fun. On the 2nd song, I know I heard it before but it doesn't ring any clear bells. I actually caught a few seconds of likeness of the amazing Leona Lewis off of Syesha during the 2nd song, for the first time I'm thinking '' yeah, she could win...''. I love that dress too, lol. Randy didn't like it at all, Paula and Simon loved it. How did THAT happen??

Jason Castro singing 2 songs on the 3rd runs. For the 1st song, I think he did okay, mostly because I couldn't compare the song, he looked very lively for once, added bits of attitude...but the judges all didn't like it, dang...things are going badly for him. He should have gone weeks ago, =P. At least he tried to blow it all away this week, at least he tried. For the 2nd song, it seemed he did better until he lost the words, haha. Smooth, mellow and charming as he always had been. Simon said he should pack his bags, @@. Thats really saying alot...

David Archuleta sang ''Stand By Me'' for his first song. It reminded me of Josiah Lemming who tried to do that song without any instruments and music. I mean, they were somewhat alike, just a little better. Looking at that performance, he's like singing to some girl standing on the balcony at night, with those hand gestures. If I was that girl, he sang good enough to be let into the house, LoL. For the 2nd song, he sang ''Love Me Tender'' by Elvis Presley, can't say I know that song, but this week, he's finally showing another colour other than white! Doing a romantic love song kinda really brings it out, haha. All in all, the judges all loved him, like they're gonna crown him right there, that instant.

We are down to four people, people! Hasty predictions, if things go rasionally, Jason goes home. We'll find out for sure tomorrow.

Funny facts: David Cook calls David Archuleta Archie, does that mean Archie calls David Cook Cookie? XD

Have you ever anticipated something coming sooner, but in the end it came later than ever? For once, I'm hoping for results to come sooner but it had to come later. #$@#%#@% JPA now stands for Jom Pergi Adu! = P. Form 6 it is.... haihz... I so dang hope for the scholarship == . Changing 2nd week of May to Mid of May, ON the 2nd week of May, thats low...>.> . Now I have to look for shoes and pants and clothes, I even have to wash my tie because I can't remember if I washed it after SPM, hmm... Things gonna get so mahuan...== . Feelin a bit eerie bout Form6 life.



I'm shaded and peeling...

A lesson in Late Food

As watching shows late into the night, you get hungry, hehe. Out of the blue, I decided to cook/make something for a late night snack to go with the entertainment. Off I went looking for a pack of Maggi and this is what I found.

I had no idea what the heck is it except that its green and it sticks hard to the noodle. There were even a few bugs crawling inside the package. How the heck did they get there??

Zooming in on the fungus (well, at least I think it is), although quite blur was very hard. Quite funny that a perisa Ayam Maggi brews green fungi. That means Curry flavour ones make red and orange fungi?

All the air was sucked out of the packet and it was covered with green stuff too. Off with you to the rubbish bin! After all that i checked the expiry date, 27/4/08 @@ . Hehe...that could mean that we eat healthy at home, XD.

In the end, I cracked an egg into a plate containing leftover satay pork from the day and placed 2 pieces of bread on top of the egg, preventing it from poping? But I really suggest that you never heat bread using the microwave longer than 30 seconds, it will be very hard to chew... I learned from experience... =P . Mayo on the satay and tomato ketchup on the egg, well, at least I think its nice, hehe...

AI TOP 5



It has come to this again...haha, downloading took quite a while, had been busy all day, long story... ok, back to the reviewing, XD

This week everyone had to do 2 songs, the whole show was kinda chaotic, almost rated the worst episode so far.

Jason Castro opened the show, bad bad, he memang not show-opening type. This guy, somehow I think he isn't trying to win the competition, because its hard to see the effort he put into the performances. It really was just okay, just neutral. On the 2nd song, he sang sitting down again... not someone who knows how to work the stage, but he stood up this time! Wow, the fact that I noticed that could mean that his singing getting boring... but I did get one wave of goosebumps, but that like only a second. He's very not ''in-the-zone'', but he memang liek dat... He's gotta pump up and lose that attitude if he does want to win this. Him leaving would be the right choice, but well, that's just me. The show has its ways of kicking off the unrightful choices, for that I mean deserving contestants...

David Cook followed suit(is this the correct spelling?). He's like having his own concert for the moment on stage, somehow making him look like his singing secara bersahaja, no idea if its good or bad, but it was good, only good. The second song however, showed the world what its like to have David Cook in the house! It was like last week's performance, but getting a bit stale. What's going on? Watching the show for so long and getting bored with this people?
O.0 > 0.O > O.0

Brooke White, girl girl... looking at that first performance, it was all so wrong... it was down right terrible, I agree with Simon defining it as a nightmare. She even looks wrong, dorky, a lil bit disoriented, that guitar making her upper body look out of proportion with her long legs. I even said to myself '' pack your bags, your going home...'' BUT, a bolded but, she made a good comeback! She belongs with the piano! It was amazing, but it was definitely above average. However, could the first song pulled her down?

David Archuleta! He sang ''Sweet Caroline", he nailed it(the song, which is the only thing he...) was good enough to make me want to like him, but no. Yea he can sing anything but those choices of songs are just too ''fake'', as in plain agar with a hint of pink/sweet holiness. The second song just proves that he ain't gonna be my choice no matter how good he is, =P . Although, it WAS a hell of a song choice, singing a song titled ''America" on ''American Idol", lol, look at that. He's gotta spice it up, show some darker colours for a change... >.> I think he's going to have quite some problems, having being called a prodigy@@ and Boy Wonder, that really comes with a lot of stress, even someone like my knows thats a hell lot to live up to... He was different this week though, he honestly/actually looked like he was very sien, not much of the shy shy this week.

Syesha Mercado. Since last week, I'm beginning to enjoy her performances, all because she looks most natural on stage, a good actress/singer, both that cannot be seperated or she'll be nothing. From me she got multiple nods for both of the songs, but sometimes her 抖音 very annoying, == because she uses it on every long note! She uses it too much, somewhat old fashioned style of singing. I'm half-surprised that Simon said she could be in danger this week.



ps, Happy Birthday to JerL~!
