Spandex Parade..

I'm suffering from insomnia = I'm terribly bored.
It's bad to the point that I'm starting to become a TV junkie and i'm starting to do stupid things (read: Please don't ask!)

Due to my constant lack of patience, i was frantically channel-surfing..till i saw something that made me speechless for a full 20 seconds after the run of the show's trailer...

"WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPER HERO?"

What the fuck is that? All i saw were a bunch of people prancing around in spandex.
At 2.30am in the morning, THAT IS SO NOT FUNNY.

It seems, the reality TV show is about contestants who create their own superhero, make their own costumes, and portray their best superhero mojo...Supposedly, they will leave their former lives behind and start a series of transformations. Which will result in them trying to earn an opportunity to become real-life superheroes.(?!?!?!)

Stan Lee (Father-of-ALL-superheroes) will judge this competition, and the winner walks away with a comic book of the superhero, supposedly in some movie as well..i'm not very sure myself. And i'm not exactly eager to know...

There was a part of the trailer that had Contestant A saying "This was always what i wanted to do since i was a kid, it's my childhood dream!"

EXCUSE ME? AM I HEARING CORRECTLY?

I understand we all had the urge to dress up in spandex when we were young, for the boys, it was Superman. The whole red-underwear-worn-outside-your-pants kinda thing. Well, for the girls..I don't know about everyone else..I didn't have much of a fetish with superheroes..I like Strawberry Shortcake (OK, i know she's NOT a superhero), but is CareBears counted?

haha i don't think it matters anymore..Keeping Star Wars figurines and whatevers are fine. But please don't start having funny thoughts about dressing up like them...I don't think Cosplay works that way.. Anime, YES!...Superhero (X-Men/Superman/Spiderman) NO!..U don't exactly wanna see the HULK walking around town do u?.....

But anyways who makes being a superhero, a childhood dream? I'm starting to look at other human beings besides kids in a different light now....

(Maybe that middle-aged man standing next to me in the train in corporate attire today has a secret desire of dressing up in spandex as Spiderman...)

Yuck. Damn gross.

It's unimaginable how adults wouldn't give a fuck about prancing around in spandex. And i'm not talking about the kind of spandex that's mentioned in Vogue magazines...I'm talking about the kind where they come in amazingly bright colours, with matching capes and you wear them over one another......sometimes in the wrong sequence. It's scary...

Reality shows are so over-rated, till they're making normal people with funny ambitions act like idiots. It's hard watching fully grown men and women togged with colourful spandex costumes, with capes..i repeat..WITH CAPES and insane-looking head accessories go through obstacles. That's practically torture...

"WHO WANTS TO BE A SUPERHERO?"

NOT ME....and i'm hoping...that none of my friends will tell me....they LIKE the show...
Cos..i might ignore them for a while.

881 rocks my socks! (Surprise?!)

i've never been into local productions. honestly. call me a bitch, but i always think Jack Neo films aren't exactly exciting. Someone's probably gonna kick my ass after reading this. i know! Support local talent! I DO!..But sorry, Jack Neo films just ain't for me...

But i'm tellin' you, the new local movie 881, seriously..ROCKS MY FRIGGIN' SOCKS! haha..
Irene, who happens to be far away in China-land has heard the rave, cos her mom's been complaining that she really wants to watch it, yet no one wants to go with her..

Even my Daddy, the 'i-don't-go-to-the-cinema-and-i-only-buy-DVDs-cos-i-don't-have-all-the-time-in-the-world' has seen it! Talk about happening..i dont know what to say...
And the soundtrack...dont get me started...Black May and One Half has been ringing in my head ever since I..
01) Saw the 'live' performance at the YES 933 event last saturday (read: I wasn't there as a fan mind u..I was with Leslie,helping out for the promotion of a Taiwanese artiste, cos he said that the new executive's incompetence is giving him problems..talk about being an ass for saying that..mean shit)
02) After i got the soundtrack...(read: The song Black May just leaves me crying like a baby..feeling emo and depressed. How can anyone do this! This is almost illegal!)

Oh well, i think this rave is gonna stick around for a while..and so will the song..

I need to stop crying. Ok, maybe i should stop starving myself.

Okok, maybe i just need to get some sleep... i'm getting confused.

i need to stop ranting. goodbye.

Hectic Week...

i've been a busy spider ALL week, since i got my ass back from taipei. i don't even know where to start about my trip.. in a simple one-liner, the trip was all about lotsa drinks, clubbing, dancing,eating, late nights and bloated faces. And.....we were the suay'est shit, cos we bumped into Mr. Typhoon himself. How exciting..DAMN! Mr, Typhoon had to come on a weekend, and he tried to schemingly wreck our clubbing plans.. but we went ahead anyway! haha.. We braved the heavy rain and winds....to club...It's amazing how he chose perfect timing to hit us, on a Saturday. He could have just came on a Monday, when it's boring. Idiot.

We clubbed, we drank, we partied..good enough for a trip. I'm not asking for more..We wanted for once to see somewhere else besides Taipei City, but Mr. Typhoon stopped us from going anywhere beyond the boundaries. Fucker. Was pissed cos i just can't believe i actually forgot to check the weather forecast before i was gonna leave. AND WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME!?!?!? They are cruel people. They just wanna make me go over and suffer. bloody hell.
But nonetheless, i did have fun..and i came home looking like a stoned cow.

Slept throughout the flight back, and i only managed a breadroll on the flight..cos i got woken up by my hunger.. I'm damn gross la...My beloved sista came to pick me from the airport, sweet. And i can't even remember how i made it to lunch. i was practically stuffing the chicken in my mouth, at the same time, thinking about how i wasn't gonna bathe, and jump straight into bed to crash...i was so tired, i swear i could fall asleep standing up...But i didn't anyways, i still managed to throw my dirty laundry in the wash, shower (YES I REALLY DID SHOWER!) and keep the food i smuggled in the fridge. i'm a hardworking smartie pants!
No pictures though, no, actually there are pictures.. but i'm a lazy ass..its too many to load on the blog...So.i'm not going to!

Check out the pictures in facebook..or friendster, if u must.

i'm still suffering from fatigue, and it's been a week... cos i was rushing out reports the minute i got back, to make it for the deadline. YUCK!... i hateee them!

Toodles..(read: my mom is screaming cos she wants me to go to the supermarket with her, and i'm still here updating my blog) bwahahahah...

Secret

Rushing essay after essay..so NOT happening! I've got 2 more to go before i leave for TPEeeeeeeee!
That's like 3 days, 3 fucking days..My brain is just simply gonna disintegrate to absolutely nowhere.
Wish me luck! I so bloody need it..
Met up with a friend for dinner, as well as check out her apartment..Pretty nice place, but pool view and all that shite..
She mentioned she hosted the press conference for Jay Chou's movie, and caught the exclusive premiere..



The conversation went like this..
ME: "Oh! How was the press conference?"
FRIEND: "It's okay, the usual lah.."
ME: "So this Secret thingy, what's the damn secret ah?"
FRIEND: "The movie is surprisingly much better than expected..and the secret ah? Jay Chou said that I can't tell U.."
ME: ....... ..... ..... .......... ......... .................
CRAP...



Yesterday, my beloved Angel called and asked me if i wanted to catch the movie. I was sceptical..honestly..
She mentioned she had a pair of free tix, so i told her i'll think about it...



A conversation with another friend on MSN ....
ME: "Angel asked me if i wanted to catch the Secret movie with her tonight.. Have u caught it yet?"
T: "huh..NO!"
ME: "Why? I thought U might have went for the exclusive premiere as well?"
T: "Jay Chou [ACTED] & [DIRECTED] in the movie....Do U think it's worth your time watching? U're so gonna waste your S$9.50 tonight!"
ME: "Thank God i've got free tix.."
Did you see Curse of the Golden Flower? He was like...MR. Blockhead..and with all that bouncing tits..the movie just gave me a headache...Sad to say, i did watch that movie last night...but it seriously wasn't as bad as i expected..


I thought i might just sleep through, but i didn't! Surprisingly, his acting skills improved slightly, except the acting cute part wasn't necessary..I was grossed out..But the location setting was amazing..It was sorta set in an old building, with beautiful structures..Very Britsh boarding school kinda style...

And the best part...the storyline was quite an unexpected twist..not the usual i-love-u/u-love-me shit...

Good enough for somone like Jay Chou..For him to come up with something like that...honestly.
But i wouldn't pay S$9.50, call me Ms. Cheapskate Ass for all i care..And sharing the theater with the young bengs and lians were so not necessary.. THEY HAVE NO COURTESY...(read:phones ringing, jumping around the theater, laughing loudly, throwing popcorn..etc.) Fucked up bunch of arseholes.....
Enough ranting..i've gotta get back to my essay....
Toodles...

Zouk:School:Rants:Whatnots

I've been frantically searching for someone on Friendster. [Please don't ask].
But i realised something hilarious.
What i dont understand about some people is that, why do u place celebrities as your pictures?
I found Takuya Kimura, Daniel Henney, Jay Chou, Edison...etc..
All under the same name.. I even saw Sammi Cheng & SpongeBob...
......................
Why?!?! U expect someone to believe that u look like that at 42?
OK..not SpongeBob..Cos it'll be scary
But Hello?!?!?! Don't bluff ok..
For goodness sake! It's embarassing lah..
I don't mind cartoons, cars, shoes, clothes, although it might start looking like Yahoo Auctions already
Whatever u want.. REALLY! Anything else but your face..
But why put a picture of a celebrity?
I thought it was funny...But it kept appearing..
NOT funny anymore..
Thats like bloody almost all 100pages of it..
These people are damn gross.. They need to get a life.. or a camera.
Nothing's up but Zouk and school recently..Been having new classes and meeting new people..
It's amazing how people can dress up and go to class at 9am in the morning..
A fucker was decked in PINK, from head to toe..Someone help me..
9am in the morning, she stood out like a sore thumb..i wanted to slap her..
Been doing alot of readings and reports...
Drinking and smoking way too much and too often..
A couple of ways to amuse myself..when i got bored studying...Tadaahhhhh....
Cam-WHORE!

*DEAD*

Toodles....
