Had an utterly exhausting but lovely weekend. Saturday - went shopping for Swarovski Bicone 0.4 cm. Found a small mechanical doll of a glow in the dark T-Rex bones. Very cute and cost only RM2. Play with it while waiting for the PalmX meeting. Fooled a few guys into thinking that I'm early 20s. Hehehe. Attend the meeting, never once did I show anyone my nearly extinct Sony T615C. Got scammed by my fren, lovely surprise tho. Then, have a dinner with frenz at Jalan Semarak Satay, quite good satay. In my mind, quite as good as sate Kajang. Only the chillies for the sauce is a bit under cooked. Then afterwards, go and see the Pan's Labyrinth. Sunday - meet with a fren for a personal session of gym. Our version of it lah. Very tiring. Then, jalan-jalan with a fren, showing off his latest acquisition. Petang, balek dah exhausted gler...Tido and kemas umah ajer semalam. Pan's Labyrinth review. A fairytale that is not suitable for kids. Got quite a lot of grisly and bloody scenes. Very dark and quite scary. I had a few moments looking down at my hands and closing my eyes. The story revolves around Ophelia, who moves into an army camp since her new stepfather wants the new baby to be born with the father. The father, a fascist army Captain is very strict and Ophelia dislike the guy. Afterward, a stick insect transfigures to a fairy and led Ophelia to a Faun which explains that she was actually Princess Moanna, an underground princess which had died after going to the surface. She have to do 3 tasks to confirm that she was indeed Princess Moanna and can be reunited with her family, the King and Queen of Underground. Want to know the ending? Go and see for yourself lah. You can see the movie at GSC One Utama and MidValley. It is a Spanish film but it does have 3 subtitles in Mandarin, BM and BI. The story itself is very engaging, the makeup and CGI are superb. No wonder they won the awards at Oscar. The verdict? I would personally give 8 1/2 stars out of 10. Very high score for people that knows me. Am reading - the same book. Yeah, the writing is quite small. Am listening - Iris by Goo Goo Dolls. Utterly love the song. One of my fav, even tho the movie is not very inspired (to me lah). There is totally no chemistry between the hero and Meg Ryan. http://www.ifilm.com/video/2787376 And I'd give up forever to touch you Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now Verse 2 And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life Cause sooner or later it's over I just don't want to miss you tonight Chorus And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am Verse 3 And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything seems like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know your alive Chorus And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am Chorus I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am I just want you to know who I am 0 Comments:

Of trilobytes eternal in stone, And seem to stare about in mild surprise At changes greater than they have yet known. - T.A. Conrad |

And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. - William Blake, excerp from Auguries of Innocence. |
