ee: Thanks! I'll be needing it.

Star Wars

Just got back from watching Revenge of the Sith. I must say this is my favourite of the 'new' Star Wars films. It keeps you at the edge and wanting more after watching it. Some of the scenes and lines were a bit cheesy but that's what Star Wars is all about. The acting of some of the characters are a bit weak too. *cough* Hayden Christensen *cough*. However, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman and Ian McDiarmid were great! And Yoda rocks my socks!




The highlight for me were the graphics and effects, which were amazing! I can't help but wonder how the older Star Wars would look like given the technology today. I can only remember bits and pieces of the films from when I was 5 or so. This movie made me wanna go and watch all the other 5 episodes again but I've got an exam to look forward to =(

This must be added to my 'to do' list in the summer.

Crave

Hmm.. the dim sum girl song has made me think about food a little too much. Oh, what I would give to have some of these:

Yummy Dim Sum



Unagi with garlic rice



Strawberry milk tea + pearls & coconut jelly


Less than 2 months to go! *trying to make myself feel excited although I know it's a long time =/*

Unmotivated

Aarghh! I can't seem to concentrate at all! I must have attention deficit disorder or something. I can't focus for more than 10 minutes! LoL.

Anyway, take a look at the then beautiful and curvaceous Lindsay Lohan:

and this is how she looks like now:



I think someone should feed her KFC or something. At the rate she's going, she's gonna look like Skeletor soon!

Do girls actually wanna look like this?

Dim Sum Girl

Firstly, click here and check out this song. Some funny shit to help me de-stress. Hehe.

Anyways, the presentation itself went alright. But the discussion bit after that =S. I had trouble answering a couple of the questions that the professors asked. Sigh... so much for hoping to get a good grade in my project. Now I need to focus more on the exams. Just less than 3 weeks away! SHIT! I'm so not ready.

Can't wait for it to be all over! Then I won't have to write another ESSAY ever again! Woohoo! Looking forward to my summer plans =).

S: Is Sister Huber cool or what!?
Shyemzz: Guess lah hehe ;)
Ji: Good luck for your last exam! It's all over for you but I still have 3 more weeks =(

Tomorrow...

I have a presentation tomorrow in front of the whole department! *nervous breakdown*

I can't seem to concentrate and remain focus. Arghh, can't let my nerves get the better of me!

*waiting for the guy/gal to finish his/her half an hour shower so I can get refreshed and practice for tomorrow*

Random Stuff

More AI

Take a look at this. The website was supporting Scott Savol and now that he's gone, they've switched their support to Anthony. lol. I must say they did quite a good job to get Scott into the top 5. Hehe.



Harry Potter!

I can't wait for the new book to come out. I'm glad I have some reading material already this summer holidays. =D

These are the 2 covers that will be sold:


(Children's edition) and (Adult's edition)

I think it's a no-brainer which one I would choose :P.

Also can't wait for the Goblet of Fire movie later this year. This is my favourite book of the series and the trailer looks amazing!


(The maze where the Triwizard tournament took place)


(The dragon)



Trust your nose


(click the nose)

According to research, our nose is highly skilled at sniffing out suitable sexual partners. So what are you waiting for? Go out and sniff around! ;)

Idol Talk

Controversy?

Anyone who hasn't heard of American Idol must have been living under a rock the last 4 years. It has since become the highest rated reality show in the US. Being able to witness and choose your own "Idol" must be a hell of an incentive to make you watch. Not to mention when the Idol becomes huge, you want to know that you were there from the beginning.

However, the show has had its fair share of controversy as well. Let's see:
Season 1 - Rumours of poll rigging started once Tamyra Gray got kicked off from the final 4.
Season 2 - Corey Clark got the boot from making the finals because he failed to reveal he had an assault charge against his sister.
Season 3 - Frenchie Davis got kicked off the show because she posed topless for a website.
Season 4 - Scott Savol and Bo Bice both had an arrest record. Paula Abdul accused of substance abuse.

It seems that Corey Clark is back in the spotlight again. He had just admitted that he had an affair with Idol judge, Paula Abdul, claiming that Abdul coached him on song selection, bought him stage clothes, paid for hair styling and eventually initiated a sexual affair while he was a contestant in Season Two's preliminary rounds. Now I would be sceptical about this news coming from the mouth of a 'loser' and 'liar' but there were phone records of their conversations.

Conveniently, Clark has an album and book on his Idol experience coming out soon. Coincidence? I think not. This is probably him trying to stir up some interest in his upcoming releases. Even if Paula did have an affair with him, so what? Corey is 24, a freaking adult! It's not like you're 12 and got taken advantage of. This is concensual sex, and you're just coming off as a slime for kissing and telling. That's just LOW.

So do you think Paula should be kicked off the show? It'd be a shame if she was actually booted for this reason. Paula has already came out and denied the claims. I think she should stick around eventhough she hardly gives any constructive criticism to the contestants. She provides a good balance to the nasty Simon Cowell who can be straightforward but is just plain ruthless. I think Paula helps make the contestants feel less embarrased if they performed below par that night. But I do think the three judges are getting very predictable now and it's getting a bit stale. If AI do come back with a fifth season, I suggest they should spice things up a little. Maybe try re-introducing guest judges or even replace all 3 of them!

Anyway, I got carried away. Let's get back to the final 4 of this season. To me, there aren't any 'stars' this year, as opposed to what Simon so oftenly talks about. Carrie definitely has a good voice and excellent control but her stage presence is completely lacking. Vonzell, on the other hand, can be a bit sharp here and there and needs better control but she has the best stage presence than the rest of the contestants. It's just so fun to watch her. And with that personality, how can you not like her? Bo looks like a seasoned performer but his 'rock' performances sound exactly the same as the last one. He redeemed a little this week though. Heaven and Stand By Me week probably his best performances to date.

Oh... and Anthony? Just go home next week.

Side note: I can't get enough of Felicia Tilman on DH!

There's always a first time...

Testing 1-2-3.

I know I shouldn't be doing this but I need some outlet to vent my boredom. Yes, revising for exams must be the most boring thing in life! I know it's a way of gauging how much we have learned the past year... but it still doesn't change the fact that it's b-o-r-i-n-g! Since I have no lectures these days, I should have plenty of time to revise for this oh-so-dreaded exams. How I wish =(

I succumb to temptations easily. So during the course of 24hours, I probably end up spending only about 4-5 hours doing actual revision. Here's what I find a lot more interesting than burying my nose in books (well, more like my notes):

1) Sleeping. I spend half the day in my bed. It's so comfy. I don't wanna get out. Maybe I should make it less comfy.
2) Eating. I ♡ food, period.
3) Surfing. I can't help it! My laptop is right in front of me the whole time! :P
4) Chatting. I ♡ my friends and family.
5) Gunbound-ing. This game is addictive. Help!!!
6) TV shows. You name it, I probably have watched it.
7) Tennis. This is probably the only sport I can play at this time of the year and it's hard to find people who's free to play!
