Here are the movies I have watched in various cinema so far.
1: Hancock
Lets just say that I watched this movie is the most horrible manner. Third row from the front. To make matter worst, we all fell sick after watching the movie due to the fact that the movie was shot in a shaky manner. Apart from that, Will Smith is the hottest African American alive :). Such a great body, height and face. Charlize Theron looks incredibly different in the movie. Shes good looking as well. I bet the guys would be drooling watching her in the film. Film is pretty good. Storyline contains several scenes that would make people laugh or tear. Smart choice of actors I must say. Ahuh another superhero movie this year although it is not your typical superhero or comic book adaptation film.
John Hancock (Will Smith) is an unhappy and reluctant superhero who is living in his own world. For some unknown reason, Hancock is depressed and has started drinking very heavily. He has saved many lives in Los Angles over the years, but in doing so, he has no regards for damaging buildings, trains, roads, cars, or anything that gets in his way to get the job done. The last time he captured several criminals, it cost the city $9 million to fix the damages. The public has had enough of Hancock, and they want him to stop or go to another city. Then one day, Hancock saves the life of Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman) from being run over by a train. Ray is a Public Relations executive who now can go home to his wife and child, because Hancock was there. Ray owes Hancock his life, and he makes it his mission to change his superhero's image and have the public cheering him. Ray's wife, Mary (Charlize Theron), believes Hancock can not be fixed, and she doesnt want Ray to be hurt. (IMDB, 2008)
6.5/10
2:Wanted
Ahh yes I have heard people talking about how hot Angelina Jolie looks in the film. Guys guys *ahem. The film is pretty violent to be honest but absolutely entertaining. I love how the story moves until the end. Graphic novel adaptations are getting extremely popular. I have no idea why though. Perhaps graphic novels was already a major hit to most of the people. Therefore, adaptations are done as it would attract viewers.
"Wanted" tells the tale of one apathetic nobody's transformation into an unparalleled enforcer of justice. In 2008, we're introduced to a hero for a new generation: 25 year old employed slacker, WESLEY GIBSON. Wes is the most disaffected, cube-dwelling, clock-punching drone this planet has ever known. His boss chews him out hourly, his girlfriend ignores him routinely, and his life plods on in interminable boredom and routine. Everyone knows this disengaged slacker will amount to absolutely nothing, and so does he, until he meets a women by the name of FOX, and then everything changes. Wes' estranged father is murdered, and the deadly Fox recruits him into The Fraternity, a secret society that trains him to avenge his father's death, by unlocking his dormant powers. And oh boy does he have powers, as she teaches Wes how to develop his lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, he discovers that The Fraternity lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: to carry out the death orders given by emotionless Fate itself. Wes, with his wickedly brilliant and sexy tutor, plus the paternal guidance of The Fraternity's enigmatic leader, SLOAN, young Wes grows to enjoy all the strength and success he ever wanted. But, slowly, he realizes there's more to his dangerous associates than meets the casual eye. And, as he wavers between new found heroism and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one can ever teach him; that he alone controls his destiny
7/10
3: The Dark Knight (Batman)
As much as I love Batman films especially Batman Begins. This is without a doubt the best made Batman film. Ahh yes. Actors plays a vital role here. With actors like Heath Ledger, Christian Bale, Aaron Echart, Morgan Freeman---> The film contains a solid crew of actors. Without a doubt Heath Ledger's character of Joker in the film overshadows all the other characters. His brilliant acting shows his versatility in tackling various roles. This would be one of his best performance. The joker definitely leaves a deep impression to most as his characteristics haunts the mind. I bet audiences have some kind of love/hate relationship with his character. The plot of the film keeps audiences hungry for more. People were making wild guesses on what would happen next. The storyline was twisted with the unexpected happening. I would say bravo to Christopher Nolan and his crew for producing such a fabulous film. The film has earned the reputation of the most anticipated movie of the year. I would say that this is the best film of the year so far. The mise-en-scene of the film is just great. Highly recommended! although might be some parts appearing a little too draggy. Go Watch the freaking film now!
lol I have been waiting for the release of this film for such a long time and I finally get to watch it during the opening. How awesome is that?
Set within a year after the events of Batman Begins, Batman, Lieutenant James Gordon, and new district attorney Harvey Dent successfully begin to round up the criminals that plague Gotham City until a mysterious and sadistic criminal mastermind known only as the Joker appears in Gotham, creating a new wave of chaos. Batman's struggle against the Joker becomes deeply personal, forcing him to "confront everything he believes" and improve his technology to stop him. A love triangle develops between Bruce Wayne, Dent and Rachel Dawes. (IMDB,2008)

Class started two days ago. Good news would be that there will be no tutorials this week. Bad news--> We have to study the theories of Micheal Foucault again!! argh. Things have been great lately. Funny that we are all obsessed with grocery shopping. I would have to--> eat at home for quite some time considering the fact that I have over spent just on groceries. Sigh T.T I hate the fact that I always say the wrong things when I first met someone of bumped into someone I have not seen for a long period of time.
It sucks that I am constantly misunderstood by making such a small mistake. Anyway, here is the first set of pictures. I'll post out more soon. Till then have a great week everyone:)
Swimming outing

Sorry for the lack of updates. I have been pretty lazy lately. *Laughs. Whoops I got carried away enjoying my holiday:) Anyway. Daddy was sick for quite some time before bringing him to the hospital. Yes I was worried. Suspected to carry the dengue virus. Test after test, we finally got an answer and thank god the results was negative. It was viral attack instead. Considering the fact that both mum and Selina waan't at home at that time, I have the responsibility for everything that happens at home.
Selina is finally back. I accompanied dad all the way to KL just to pick Selina up from the airport. I'm really happy because we have been spending lots of sister time together watching dramas, movies (Ahh yes Selina is another movie buff. We both love movies) and talking to one another. Shes someone I feel comfortable talking to and we have been sharing a close bond ever since we were little girls.
She brought back lots of goodies all the way from UK. :)
Have been going out pretty often lately (Swimming with Sonia and Szejia, Sentosa with Jessmine and Sze) Ahh yes, it has been pretty eventful. I am enjoying every single moment.
We were trying to create a video entry for the MTV Asia Awards contest. LOL Did one at Pulai Spring and another one at Sentosa. Hope it's wacky enough.
Anyway, I'll just leave a short entry with plenty of pictures taken in Sentosa. I'll be back for more pictures from the pool. Take care everyone:)

Buckcherry: Sorry. I love this song but don't really like the video. lol
We all had a great time celebrating Sonia's birthday. It's been quite a while since the four of us all get together and do what we usually do. I'm glad the four of us still remain as close friends after all these years.
Went over to City Square yesterday for some shopping action before heading back to get ready for dinner at TGIF. Ahh yes. Food was great. I totally dig their Mac and cheese *Drools. Went over to Cabana and Dolce for some party action. Ahem, Somebody finally let go and start dancing yesterday. I wonder who lol. We had so much of fun over there. Went back home after that for some snakes and ladders shots game. This is the birthday present we bought for Sonia :) Spent the rest of the night just talking.
I shall let the pictures elaborate more on the things we did day before yesterday and yesterday. Till then, have a great day everyone:)
Pictures are from Sonia's and Sze's camera.

Lets just say I that I have been watching a lot of films lately (Ranging from various genre) Oh yes movie marathon is it. To be honest, I did have an absolutely good time ever since the holiday started.
I shall start with the outing with XELA, GNAIL, and AIJ EZS. It was Mid valley this time round. Had some shopping action and a movie.
Made of Honor was a pretty good film to be exact. Who would mind watching something that will make you go all warm and fuzzy on the inside. That was how I felt watching this film. The narrative of the film makes perfect sense. The settings are beautiful. The actors are pretty good looking as well (Without a doubt that girls would go crazy over Patrick Dempsey. Mc Dreamy). It is a twist of comedy and romance.
Made of Honor revolves around Tom and Hannah, who have been platonic friends for 10 years. He's a serial dater, while she wants marriage but hasn't found Mr. Right. Just as Tom is starting to think that he is relationship material after all, Hannah gets engaged. When she asks Tom to be her "maid" of honor, he reluctantly agrees just so he can attempt to stop the wedding and woo her. (IMDB) 6.5/10
Bowling was after that. Gosh! I finally improved although it was merely just a little. * jumps jumps jumps. We were there when they had the glow in the dark bowling thing. It was pretty cool except for the fact that Techno music filled the atmosphere =_= XELA improved a lot indeed. Nintendo Wii bowling game sounds interesting.
haha liang tengah bergaya
Next up----> the outing with Jessmine and her friends. It was basically just window shopping, eating and a movie. Zang Toi's Cafe serves good food *drools. Sitting at the cafe of my idol definitely feels great. He is a man of high fashion and is definitely a big fashion icon from Malaysia.
Lamb chop *drools. Their club sandwich is awesome too!! desert and ice tea too!!
The Incredible Hulk was pretty good as well. It was without a doubt much better than the previous one by Ang Lee. Seeing one of my favorite actor Edward Norton in it definitely was the highlight. He is one of the most versatile actor around having to act in various successful films like Fight club, Painted veil, American History X and 25th hour. Lets just say that the CGI was great. I would not say that it's the best film but it was relatively good.7.5/10
I'm now back at home. Just had a movie and shopping outing this afternoon with the SIGS girls. Ahh yes. Spent hours just catching up. Everyone looks amazingly different. They all look great:)
Get Smart was hilarious lol! We were laughing so hard in the cinema. It is crazy funny. Go watch it for a good laugh. Oh yeah it is a mixture of action, comedy and romance. It is actually quite good. I enjoyed it a lot.
Steve Carell is funny!
7/10
Ahh yes that should be about it. I will have more soon. Sonia's birthday celebration tomorrow. yay! More pictures will be up. I don't have much with me right now. Have to get it from the rest. Till then, have a great weekend everyone:) (0) comments

I like chris cendana's version of I'm yours. So cute. This guy is creative.
The epitome of sadness---> Losing my most treasured Olympus DSLRSigh. I have never felt so sad losing something before. Some idiot stole the camera during the trip to France (My mum and Selina) T.T The fact that it is in the hands of some bugger in a foreign country bothers me even more. I hope he suffers with massive diarrhea for one whole year.
I wonder when can I get a new one. * Cries
RIP OLYMPUS E400. T.T
On a brighter (but not so bright) note anymore =_=, The examination for the Monash first semester have finally come to an end. *Jumps in joy *throws confetti. Okay a little too drama. lol I'm done with theories!! No more foucault, barthes, Psycho, Duras, Shelley!
* Tears of joy. =_= wth
Went over to bukit bintang for shopping therapy lol. Ahh yes. Pavilion is the epitome of designer's goods according to XELA lol! Epitome is so the word of the day. It was pretty fun except for the unintentional spendings and the extra blisters on my foot T.T Tomorrow!! Movie !!
I'll update some more tomorrow. I have so many overdue pictures. I'll just post out some food pictures :P
I'm so so so sleepy right now. Take care everyone:)
Dinner at Pasta de Gohan. It's good!! Highly recommended. This is a restaurant from Singapore.
Dinner at Ole-Ole Bali long time ago =_= lol Also highly recommended. The portion is huge and it taste pretty good.
The pictures are taken with my horrible Motorola V3XX. Grr

I'll sum up the sleepover---> It's a great one.
Of course without a doubt the company was great, having two of my best friends being there.
Spent most of the time talking crap, watching movies and cartoons, cooking.
Speaking of cooking. We all made Steak and cream mushroom sauce + Rosemary and cajun potatoes. lol. Yeah Sonia was the main chef. All we did was just helping around. Needless do i say how good was it. :)
Watched two movies that night.
Meet the spartans: Lets just say that the film is hilarious but utterly meaningless. Watch if your a fan of all scary movie series. There was no fixed plot. The whole movie was just a combination of random events. I see 300, american idol, America's next top model, you got served, stomp the yard and several other films in it.
4.5/10
Armageddon however was a relatively good film. Contain good effects, touching scenes, good actors like Bruce Willis. The film touches on the issue of natural disaster. I guess the plot in this film is pretty much predictable. There are people getting killed and people surviving the ordeal, you see space elements, you see romance and you definitely see how good the movie portrayed NASA and the Americans. Watch it if your a sucker for sci-fiction action or touching films. I love the theme song though:)
6.5/10
Shutter:
It's not a very good horror film to be exact. The Thai production is much better than this one. The scare effect is pretty mild. Hmm not my favorite horror film.
5/10
Ahh I spent the whole day just lazing around and of course surfing the internet as well as chatting after coming back home.
Baby Joshua seems to like bugging me so much every time I'm using the computer 0_0
lol puny. I had to entertain him yesterday.
Alright, thats all for now. Have a great weekend everyone:)
