old school (minimal usage of cgi, and out of this world manga imagination. proper fighting sequences, good old plots that doesnt try to be clever n pretenious) martial arts film/drama always look good. red cliff was quite nice. some reviewers thought it was silly. the dialogue and such. but i thought it was a good effort. actually its a lot better than the stuff produced by zhang yimou/chen kaige...their so-called martial arts flims that is.

i thought another good martial arts drama production is 少年杨家将. its something that i havent seen for awhile. the standard of china drama productions are coming up real strong. and its good to listen to PROPER mandrain now and then....cos singaporean mandrain is really....i hate to say this...disgusting... and i hate it that i speak singaporean mandrain. the fact that the actors in this production CAN ACT and LOOK GOOD really helps..

sorry mediacorp, your productions are plain lousy. its time to make stuff for viewers. not force viewers to accept the trash u produce. hey, we pay for tv licsencing every year but we get locally produced crap.... and its ironic that i first watched the abovementioned drama on channel 8.

havent been using my time wisely...that is i have been slacking a lot
i have been going down to my old work place a bit too frequently i reckon.
so many things happened.
one ex-colleague had a stroke, another passed away.
it all occur within the same week.
went for my second interview and i have decided to take up that job.
this job is more volatile and has got less security for the future.
even my future boss says that 'it might fail, theoretically speaking it should succeed...but'
stuff like that. i am excited though.
one thing i learn this week is that the only person you need to convince is yourself.
i guess the idealist in me is still very much alive...dun know if this is good or bad.
but i think if i can convince myself that this is what i want to do and see it through then i wont regret the decision no matter the outcome.

what do you reckon?

i might have landed myself a job...already.
and starting soon. then i can start repaying my study loan.
been cyber stalking and reading what some ppl i used to train with talk about kendo.
its...great to see that eveyone is enjoying what they do and having fun.
what can i do about my kendo? i don't know.
and like i said, my left knee hurts and i heel hurts...
sucks. i havent been hiting the streets. i feel so fat.

what else have i been doing?
the only' productive' thing i have been doing is playing hanon.
and i agree its good for finger endurance and flexibility (espically the left hand) training.
since i am practising without a teacher (cant afford it)
i have to be a real bitch about my own techniques....cause no one else is checking it.
which translates to countless repititions of one exercise which is really boring.
but i know i have to do it. because my piano teacher says my technique sucks
and if i ever want to go on to diploma,
i jolly well practice and have better techniques before i go and see her....eventually, someday.
what i want to play hanon well...and use it as a warm up practice.
from there, play crezney's technical exercises. all aim at improving techniques
its still a long long way.

the view from my bed, that piece of rag is actually the piano cover. and have been there since....forever.

as i posted this, i got another call for interview...tml. its nearer to home thats why i want to try it out.

but it means i have to prepare... which i havent and i want to go out... now. bye

i have been mucking around not doing much.
partly because wasnt feeling well before.
which sucks. lose some workman days.
went for interview the other day..
beggers cant be choosers my only concern is that it is a little far from home.
i was supposed to go volunteer myself today but i feel rather awakward alone so i went home.
i know, i know, you'll say since u r there then why not do it....well, i dun understand it myself.
maybe it's just pure laziness.
and i am socially....incompetent. dun do well around strangers.
yes, i am weird
i am certified weird by my general pathology prof...and he is a eccentric guy himself...
so i guess it makes me doubly weird with a captial W

心情不好
看什么斗不顺眼
恶心想吐
外面又再播那些台湾新闻，很烦．
整个人混身不对劲．
想跑，不知道可以跑去哪里
很烦很烦．

好友最近推荐了一本书．张小嫻的＜离别曲＞

每页渗透着对所谓命运极时光飞逝的无奈．
自我流放和放纵的悲凉．
人物之间微妙的关系，让人觉得痛心．

然而也提醒着看书的人们，每个人真正拥有的只是当下的自己．
所以大家不要辜负自己吧．
这只是我自己的解读．

是本不错的书．

'ran' to tp then to tm.
being the 'avid' runner that i am, i probably should have won a marathon or something
but the truth is while i will move my butt to the tracks, i walk more than i run...or jog.
its just the lack of discipline and my knees hurts cause i am a fatty.

made pancakes.
i bought some pancake mix last week and has been making pancakes ever since.
now that my trashcan of a brother is coming home for the weekend i am hoping that he will empty everything down that dumphole of his and i can just not eat any...evil.
not that it taste horrible its just that i am sick of eating pancakes for now. cause i told mum that she cant eat the pancakes i made
unless she pays me $2 for each..
hey, i am jobless duh..but she refuses to pay me and wont eat it.
serves me right i guess.

and one of the guests of the show said that his mum thought he was gay because he used to hang out with his basketball buddies only.
