Dawn of the year of tiger.. Another year has come around, and i'm still stuck here doing the same thing.. Trying to prepare for my surgery exam that i so conveniently put off before skidaddling to europe. Upon returning home (pfft, home it seems ) to Moscow, the very first thing i did was gave my laptop a hug, slight caress before plugging in it and letting it boot up while i prance around the room strumming Mikhaila ( my guitar). Tons of offline messages popped up, as i scanned each one briefly before stopping to one that made my eyes dilate with horror.
"Hey, don't mean to ruin your holiday, but thought i'd let you know that the next date for surgery exam is on 12th"
Boing!! I was literally stunned for that second, before going "ehh.. Whatever.."
Somehow, as time flew over the years, we tend to get less worried about exams and being pressured to do in on time, or the threats from the dean that it IS in fact the very last official date of the exam. Cos in the long run, we've all figured out, it's just a bunch of bull. Very much like the boy who cried wolf.. so to speak.. .. or something along those lines.. Annyyyywayy..I hadn't yet prepared myself to be going for classes yet, let alone doing an exam.. So screw it.. I skipped the first day of class, which was the day after i arrived and just spent the day being zoinked out.. I have no idea why, but upon arriving back in moscow, i just felt totally lost, and discombobulated as to where i was, or what i was suppose to be doing or anything else for that matter.. Guess i needed awhile, and slowly but surely like Stella , i got my groove back.. Still, i needed a whole lotta while to get back down to earth, cos i was literally sitting in the dark for the past week with nothing on but my table lamp, watching Ed the bowling alley lawyer.. (i missed Ed! :D ) I really needed that week off, for now... i'm like back in the zone babayy.. all geared up and ready to rumble *does boxing motions* It's now or never, i'm taking this exam on, mano e mano (yea, that's why i'm here blogging, right)
Nay, main reason i wanted to blog, it's so i dont forget my yesterday. That's right, people.. i successfully hosted my very own Chinese New Year party all by myself (mostly). I wrote out the menu, got all the stuff ( yea felt kinda rich enough to sponsor this on me own), and worked it all out.. Believe me, i was a nervous wreck though, praying the food would be enough. I felt like i under budgeted the food for the amount of people that i invited, but it was all good.. I mean, i was so worried in the beginning that i didnt even feel like eating till everyone had their share. Nothing made me happier than those three words uttered "I'm damn full"... Phew *wipes sweat* Somehow i felt that was the most hardworking i've ever been without being pushed for it, and i felt proud.. of course i'm back to being the lazy ole me again today and at least i can say, ehh at least i deserve it hahah.
I do hope however, the year of the tiger is on my side.. I mean i have no complains and i don't really believe in luck but i do hope for less complications and more excitement to fly my way and for my family. Remembering past events has really shown me that we've come along way, and it just occured to me that i still speak of my grandmother in present tense unconsciously, sometimes.. and i wonder if it's because i'm so far away that i've never really came to terms with her passing. But no worries, i Do believe this year, will be a great year ahead. And i'll do whatever it takes to make sure of it ;) Starting with this dreadful exam.. *sighhh*
back to the salt mines it is....

Giving in to temptation is not defeat, it's indulgence.
No idea how i came to think that. But it does suit the situation.
I've finally decided to do my exam on a later date. Wise choice? NO IDEA. No matter how relieve i feel after making that decision, i can't help but have my guilty conscience keep kicking me in the rear. I"m not the sort of person who would pend an exam. Perhaps it was the effect of failing for the very first time last semester. Somehow failing an exam in a medical course isn't as horrifying as other courses ( i suppose ) You simply, retake the paper, no questions asked, no hassle, and no one judges you. But still, that unfamiliar feeling overwhelmed me when i failed Pathology Anatomy last year. Worse part was, i didnt even want to do the exam then. I had to literally force it all in, sighing and moaning and grumbling after reading every third question. After that experience, deciding not to take the exam this time around was much easier. Of course, being that and the fact that i have devils as friends. One by one, everyone starting dropping out, sinking, and puling me down with them. My room became a hot spot for people who weren't doing the exam on time. It became a place to eat and drink, and sing and shisha all night long. I'm not proud of this. In fact, i had the pleasure of being warned by my blockmates to keep it down. They said they've been tolerating me since christmas. Aaaahhh... out of all the things i hate being intolerable.. i mean.. I really dont wanna have to be tolerated. I'm not that sort of person who you would have to put up with, i'm the type you Wanna live with. Is it my fault for not knowing how to put on a stern face and kick people out of my room. Yes, there are times when people overstay their welcome and all you do is just sit and ignore them and they still don't get the hint and leave.
So here i am, sitting in my room, alone with the silence, enjoying the peace. I've been on downloading frenzy the last couple of days. There are just too many good movies out there. Recent watch would be Dorian Gray. Absolutely delightful watch. I've read the book when i was younger. Always pictured what i'd be like if it were made into a movie. Though as i watched the movie seemed perfectly clear to me. Story line and all, my friends however didn't quite grasp it all. For those who have not read the book, it would seem a bit abrupt in certain places. Main plot is well fitted in, but the bits and pieces in between seem to have been thrown in like dashes of salt added to a meal , a little bit here and there. This is only one man's opinion of course.
"You have the only two things worth having, Mr. Gray. Youth and beauty."
The blind side. Another movie worth watching. To me, it's a perfect blend of humour, and warmth. (no idea if that made sense to u) Though it portrayed only the perfection of the family, and the society, you can't help but think of it as a fairy tale or dream come true. Best part is, it is. A good movie to watch on a Saturday night, snuggling in close with your family, fighting for the pillows. A movie that leaves you smiling at the end.
"Are you goin to protect the family, Michael?"
Next up on my list of movies to watch, are Time traveller's wife and Lovely bones. Regret never having read both books but i'm sure i'll enjoy both movies immensely. Well, there's really not much sense in worrying and feeling guilty for not sitting for my exam. Might as well make most of the time i have.
As i quote Lord Henry in 'Dorian Gray' - "The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing"
Indeed Lord Henry, Indeed..

Nothing short of wonderful
What a relaxing day. I feel so privileged to be able to have a holiday on a Monday. It's like having two Sundays!
Spent the day clearing up my room, messed up from the potluck yesterday. Disposed off the many bottles of red wines, vacuuming up the carpet, scrubbing the pots, and of course, laundry. Found it shockingly cold today. My feet are freezing. Checked the temperature... ... -20 C. Ahhh, how can that be. It was only -8 the day before. And it's only beginning of December. Oh how i wish winter would end early this year. I can't imagine walking around Europe at the peak of winter. However it may be, I'm guessing it can never be as bad as Russia.
I've just finished watching Julie & Julia.. I'm lost for words on how to describe the movie. It was simply amazing. Yes, I love any movie that contains food. And watching Meryl Streep in the movie just sort of reminded me of my grandma. Her tall, gangly behaviour, walking around the kitchen chopping up ingredients with that sort of self satisfied look on her face just made me smile throughout the whole movie. It was just the sort of movie that gave me that warm, internal hug and imploded with candies inside my tummy and stuff like that (knowing if i'd continue describing this, people would think i'm insane). But it was just that.. Watching the movie and sipping on my chamomile tea on this dreadful wintery day, made everything feel so perfect.
How i wish i can enjoy the moment just awhile more. Alas, I'm reminded that i have to start studying for my exam which is in a month's time. Ohh can't i just procrastinate a little more. What difference does a day make right?? =D Hmmm.. So torned between enjoying this little time to myself that i've been so deprived of, and concentrating on my goal of being a good doctor. The former does sound more appealing.
Hence, here i am, quoting an overly cliched line from movies for whenever a character doesn't know what to do.. A wise chinese man, will appear from no where and say, "Follow your Heart". (i'm exaggerating, that doesn't happen all the time).
So..... 'Follow your heart' it is!
'Cloudy with a chance of meatballs' anyone? =D

i know i should be sleeping right now...
as i sit here browsing blogs of other tenants/students in this hostel i realised the after effects of the whole no net scenario has caused bloggers to find other outlets to pour out onto or just find other means of idle, time consuming activity. Seems like their blogs have slowed down upon a yellow light or maybe i half expected everyone to be updating on their misery. But it seems to me at this point, that we're blogging out of obligation or habit. posting random sentences that would seem like a topic that should be given much thought to but it's really not (like what i'm doing now ) Perhaps what i'm doing is out of boredom (it's 2am, i can't sleep) or maybe it's the fact that i can't stand to see my blog not feed on my soul.. (eat... u musttt eat...)
Having an easy cycle this week. Came back from class way too early. Kinda prompted me to clean my entire room and still have time to spare before my evening nap. I swear i would have walked around Moscow after class if it weren't for the bladdy rain. Oh how i wish it'd snow instead. Started watching episode after episode of Glee and it came to this particular episode where Kurt; a gay, flamboyant, fashionable, boy, gathered up the courage to admit to his father about his sexuality. At that point of the show i actually held my breath anticipating his father's reaction. A thought entered my mind as i wondered that when straight people watched that exact same part, would they have reacted that way, admiring what that boy did. Because i can never in a million years imagine myself coming out to my folks the way he did (which is a good thing i never had to do that since they pried it out of me) But the sense of relief, knowing you never have to hide from them anymore makes it all worth while.

side effects of QAF
Ugh...
5 Seasons in 2 weeks..
If it wasn't for the stupid rain, i would have gone out. Instead, I spent the whole of yesterday watching Queer as Folk. 12 hours to precise.. I dont know why i do things like this. My brain feels like mush, my eyes doesnt seem to be in my sockets anymore, and my head is pounding. My pupils can't seem to adjust to lighting.
It's like a bad case of hang over. Overdosed of drugs.. Intoxication from alcohol..
:(
I can't stare at the laptop screen for too long anymore or my brain will automatically reject it, causing reflex on neck muscles so i'd turn away. It's the same when you've spent the whole night drinking, and the sight of a beer bottle the next day would just make you wanna hurl.
Unless her picture is on the label that is.. Rrrr...
-------------------
To compensate yesterday's time wasting marathon, i shall study today. Scouts honor (^_^) Y
Passed my Surgery practical exam on Friday. I have to admit, i expected more from it, but i guess i shouldn't complain. Anyway more worrying coming up ahead with Path.Physiology, Path.Anatomy, Internal Disease, Surgery, and Pharmacology. Die, die, die, die, die.....
-------------------
American Idol!
What would my blog be if i didnt bitch about the finale! The results! The blunder of Americans! (gah, i hv to get my glasses, my eyes are killing me) *ahem.. What were U thinking!? Watching the finale, I was thinking, yeah this is grand. As Allen's mum said, I forgot that this was suppose to be the results (though i did forward through most of the performances). Adam as usual did a superb job. His consistency is never doubtful unlike a Mr. Allen. Seeing as how the announcement of the winner was truly anticlimatic, i would have to say the highlight of the whole damn show was oh-miss-bikini-girl's performance, joined in by Kara Dioguardi (and yes, she strips down to her bikini too :D and no, J. I do not like her just because she's pretty).
Life as we know it, is not over. Though Adam Lambert did not win the competition I suppose it's worse for Kris Allen that he did, seeing as how the internet is filled with blogs and articles saying that he did not deserve it. But when it comes down to it, at the end of the day, it's just another mindless entertainment program. In the mean time, we'll find something else to occupy our time with. That is until the next season comes about, and we'll start the whole cycle again.

Top 5 American Idol..
So cute! Can u guess who is who..
Ha Ha.. I am too free on account of Hitler's week, my Surgery class got canceled and the fact that my Russian teacher is ill, I now have a whole day dedicated to wasting time and ... well that's about it i guess.. Wasting Time..Helluuuu... :D
Another week gone by, another round of eliminations of season 8's American Idol.. Finally Anoop The 'Sai' has gone out along with Bulat (lil Rounds). With Buta(Scott) gone too the season is finally getting interesting, though we all know that Adam Lambert would be the one at the finals, I'm anxious to know who would be standing next to him. Mr.Perfect (Danny Gokey), or Rebel Teen Redhead (Allison Iraheta). I doubt Mr.Sweet (Kris Allen) or Pimple Head ( Matt Giraud) would make it that far.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not one of those fanatic people who think American Idol is all that. Honestly, in my opinion we all watch the show just because we get the opportunity to kick back and pass judgements at contestants at our will without any thrown back at us. At the same time we get to insult the judges too :D What's with the booing of Simon by Randy, Every Single Time they introduce him. It's getting old and kinda lame. And Paula, you try so hard to come up with different kinds of metaphor to describe each performance, but you end up sounding like a bumbling idiot. Plus, you stutter everytime you talk. Makes you seem kinda slow =/ Huhu. This is fun. See, this is all human nature. The reasons why people read gossip columns and watch E!
Ehh, anyway it's just a way to past time..
Just like me writing this post. I wanna go out, but kinda worried i might run into a gang of hooligans and skin heads and might just get bashed up real good for not just staying put in my room. I posted that up on my display message.. "Fk, i wanna go out" and my mum asked me bout it.
Mum: is Fk meant to be The "bad word"
Me: Yea, i really wanna go out, is all.
Mum: So naughty.
Me: Wokay, I'll change it then =p
Mum: Yea, cos if not, your sister might scold you.
See anything wrong there?
She's cool in that way. She knows me inside out. I'm a good kid and all so i guess she lets me be. Sis on the other hand, probably knows only the side of me that i let her see. Can't hide anything from mum. Knowing that I'm gay, or lesbian or whatever, she can tell me she won't be surprised if one day i come up to her and tell her I'm pregnant. Which is odd for me, but i guess she can actually figure me out despite me being all whacky and a kook.
Another 2 more months before i get back home. So much to catch up on. Can't wait for the day i step into that house of mine.. and sigh.. Home.. Sweet Home.. I actually saw that written on a floor mat belonging to one of the Juniors and i was so tempted to write at the bottom, 'Are you stupid or something. This is not Home'. Haha, but my friend stopped me. Anyway i guess everyone is just trying to make do around here. It ain't too shabby. But it's not home..
Nothing like home.

The end of L word
Last night, television's only lesbian drama ended after 70 episodes and six seasons. The two-hour block given to The L Word was split up into a one-hour tribute episode and a one-hour series finale. The first hour hailed the series as groundbreaking and as a show worthy of the history books.
The drama starring Jennifer Beals, Laurel Holloman, Katherine Moennig, Mia Kirshner, Leisha Hailey and Pam Grier was the first television show to explore the lives and loves of lesbians in West Hollywood as well as the first series with a deaf-lesbian character and a regularly occurring transsexual character. The L Word fans across the nation tuned-in in the hopes of seeing a wedding, a funeral, a baby, or at least a murder case solved.
:::::::: Major Spoilers Below ::::::::
And what did we see in the series finale? Nothing. Essentially, the episode was set up like any other episode. Dylan and Helena broke up again over trust issues. Alice and Shane chat on the phone and spend a day drinking their sorrows away together. Bette and Tina host a party. These all sound like normal L Word happenings. The problem is that there was a season-long mystery about who killed Jenny Schecter. Evidently, creator Ilene Chaiken never had any intentions of revealing how Jenny died. Earlier this year, when asked about the solving the mystery, she said, "I don't actually feel compelled to answer it. The show is about character and relationships, and I used this story to deeply explore those relationships. It's a risk not to solve a mystery, admittedly."
A risk? Yes, Chaiken risked having the wrath of The L Word fans come crashing down all around her and it certainly is. Carolinagrrrl from AfterEllen.com said, “The finale was horrible and a slap in the face to the fans. Nothing of substance actually happened, and what ACTUALLY happened was left unresolved/didn't make sense.” As a long time fan of the show myself, I'm still infuriated at the nerve.
The cliffhanger ending has been done before (when thinking of good ones, think of The Sopranos or Veronica Mars), but on a show where the fans have gotten to know the characters and care for them so intimately, it is insulting. For the whole tribute episode, when asked about the general believability of the characters and plotlines throughout the years, the producers kept saying “This is Hollywood” or “It's television, what did you expect?” Yet when Ilene was asked to explain the unfinished plotlines in the series finale, she explained, “I was not interested in wrapping up the show neatly and tidily. I wanted to end with a sense that life goes on.” Well, Ilene, you seem to be giving mixed signals. The L Word is not real life my friend, it's television. There's no context as to what these characters' lives might go on to be. Instead, their lives have come to an abrupt and heartbreaking end.
Many have speculated this is all a marketing ploy to convince investors to make an L Word movie. If so, many fans are outraged and want to see these characters again, someone will want to make it happen, right? Well, not if ninety percent of your fanbase thinks you've ruined the entire thing. I imagine that many hard-core fans would venture to the film. But, I would definitely not convince any of my friends to go with me because I wouldn't want to put them through the inevitably atrocious plotlines that will come out of an Ilene Chaiken movie and I'm guessing many fans would agree with me.
I'd be even less inclined to tune in to Chaiken's new pitch The Farm. Although I'm generally obsessed with Leisha Hailey and her character Alice, seeing Alice in prison sounds depressing. Chaiken has depressed me enough over these past six years. Chaiken claims, “it would be a great way to bring our audience over and tell them that we're not abandoning them, which was really important to us.” Well, I think she's already abandoned us after the series finale.
Ilene Chaiken refused to address the wishes of any of her fans. For instance: Did we see any growth in Shane's character? Did (as some wished) Molly and Shane get back together after Shane found the letter? Did Tasha and Alice have a happy reunion? Did Helena regain any of her previous power suit cougar ways? Did we get to see Bette and Tina marry? Did we see any of the character's dreams come true? Did we get any closure at all? After we watched our beloved characters lie, cheat and steal year after year, one glimmer of hope, one glimmer of happiness would have been nice. Instead, Ilene Chaiken gave the lesbian community murder, ambiguity and despair. I'm sure they'll be sending their thank you cards any moment.

There's no context as to what these characters' lives might go on to be. Instead, their lives have come to an abrupt and heartbreaking end.
Many have speculated this is all a marketing ploy to convince investors to make an L Word movie. If so, many fans are outraged and want to see these characters again, someone will want to make it happen, right? Well, not if ninety percent of your fanbase thinks you've ruined the entire thing. I imagine that many hard-core fans would venture to the film. But, I would definitely not convince any of my friends to go with me because I wouldn't want to put them through the inevitably atrocious plotlines that will come out of an Ilene Chaiken movie and I'm guessing many fans would agree with me.
I'd be even less inclined to tune in to Chaiken's new pitch The Farm. Although I'm generally obsessed with Leisha Hailey and her character Alice, seeing Alice in prison sounds depressing. Chaiken has depressed me enough over these past six years. Chaiken claims, “it would be a great way to bring our audience over and tell them that we're not abandoning them, which was really important to us.” Well, I think she's already abandoned us after the series finale.
Ilene Chaiken refused to address the wishes of any of her fans. For instance: Did we see any growth in Shane's character? Did (as some wished) Molly and Shane get back together after Shane found the letter? Did Tasha and Alice have a happy reunion? Did Helena regain any of her previous power suit cougar ways? Did we get to see Bette and Tina marry? Did we see any of the character's dreams come true? Did we get any closure at all? After we watched our beloved characters lie, cheat and steal year after year, one glimmer of hope, one glimmer of happiness would have been nice. Instead, Ilene Chaiken gave the lesbian community murder, ambiguity and despair. I'm sure they'll be sending their thank you cards any moment.

Well, my trip has been canceled twice. Bugger. Rather disappointing, as i was really looking forward to getting out of Moscow for a while. Doesn't really help when most of the people around you aren't adventurous enough to try something different. It's not that i'm bored mind you, just that's it a bloody waste cos this year i have my longest break. Oh well, there's always spring. Made it a point to learn more about Russian History since i've always been fascinated by it. Was watching a documentary on it, and it was most enlightening, knowing all the rulers and their accomplishments; Ivan the Great, Ivan the Terrible and my favorite, Peter the Great. Everyone was interesting in a more serious way, in which i was putting my hands to my chin, listening intently and goin Hmm... except for the part where they spoke of False Dimitriy. Amusing. During the Time of Troubles (Смутное время, Smutnoye Vremya) an imposter from Poland claimed himself heir of Ivan the Terrible and reigned the country for a year before
being exposed. It is said later on they sent him back to Poland, "Russian Style". This is the good part. Hehe. They killed him, burned his corspe, put his ashes in a cannon,pointed it towards Poland and fired it.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahhaha.
But seriously..
Hahahahaha....
Don't mess with the Russians man.
By the way, it's Chinese New Year. Doesn't feel like it to me, so I wont be wishing anyone, unless they do it first and it'd only be polite to do so. Didn't have any makan-makan this time around. Didn't even cook for myself. Most of my friends are in Malaysia, or off somewhere on their euro-trip. No matter.. Didn't really feel like celebrating anyway since my grams just passed away. She was the one who usually cooked the dishes for our family reunion, and this time around, as i usually do, i was thinking of how my family are back home, and i just kept picturing her there. Had to remind myself that she wasn't incase i said something wrong to my mum. I did infact forget that it was CNY till I saw the Vietnames cooking (on the floor... of the corridorrrrrr) and heard them singing Karaoke later on. At least someone's having a good ole celebration. Not that i'm complaining.. This has been the most relaxing winter break ever, for many reasons which we shall not get into.. And.. Oh yes, haha if you've yet to watch Yes Man, do so.. for my favorite part of the movie...
~I wish you would step back from that ledge my friend,
~You could cut ties, with all the lies that you've been living in
~And, if you do not want to see me again
~I would understandddddd-eeee-ndddd-eee-ndd, I would
understandddd-eee-enddd..
Yeah, i know lame.. but cmon.. the song is a classic!.. u saw how the crowd were singing along to it. People watching this on tv, or laptop or in the cinema would sing along to it. And i know for a fact it's true, because my friends told me so. Hah! Me and my buddies watching it were even singing and moving side to side to it.. hahahaha just reminds everyone of the 'days back then', yeah.. when we were young. LOL. Good times though.. good times. Though i Do wonder bout the people singing in the cinema though. What if Everyone there was singing, and it was really loud, would the people watching the other movies in the next hall be freaking out..? Oh well...
just sing along then... hahahahahha. ~Cheers..
Everyone's got to face down the demons
Maybe today
You could put the past away
I wish you would step back from
That ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you've been living in
And if you do not want to see me again

Hmm...
Funny but I just had this thought after watching The Investigator.
If all people who were gay are banned from the army, and if they all went to war and died, wouldn't it sum up to alot more gays left here on earth?
Guess that would be a good thing for us anyway but it Is something to laugh about isn't it?
For me at least..
Ha Ha..

Bimbo week
What is it about Gossip Girl, that makes everyone go on and on about it? When I was still in moscow, my younger sis had mentioned that it was interesting and i should give it a try, my girlfriend which surprised me by watching it, because as far as i know, she's been far too busy too watch anything at all, let alone some bimbotic show. The show, revolving around the lives of some upper classed bunch of teens of whom are all involved in sex, and drugs and booze and just entangling themselves in their own sick games and causing lame drama which is so predictable, that i've been able to foresee every ( k, not every.. most tho) twist/shocker that was coming. But that was my first impression on the very first day i saw it, i mean, right till the end of the season i did still feel it was a bimbotic show, but at least it was bareable and the only reason would be because of the infatuation and crushed i have developed on one of the characters... hehehe.. Serena van der Woodsen.. ahhh u're so cutee....
(to my gf, i just wanna say i hv every right to be infatuated with this character, only bcos u like shane from the L word in an insane amount that u could actually spot a look alike of her during the pride in london, so =p leave me be ... hehehe )
To continue, I've never seen a character so bubbly, so sweet, and funny and completely adorable and at the same time be so gorgeous and sexy. Her voice, may be a bit hoarse and she's bit taller than she should be but, gawd her smile is made to melt all weak hearts alike mine and she's cute from hair to toe nail and even that mole underneath her right eye makes her look endearing.
(i have a feeling someone is gonna kill me for this stupid post that my instincts tell me to stop talking about her now.. =p she's just a character, bay. U're the reality ;)
Serena, you're always welcomed to invade my dreams however you may like ;)
Apart from watching the whole season of Gossip Girl, I've started watching Girlicious, which is a reality television series, in search for young girls who are pussycat dolls wanna-be. Believe me, it's not my choice to watch this sort of series, but seeing as how my sister just returned today from Ukraine, and she and my mum wanted to watch it, I gave in. It's not a total lost for me anyway. I don't mind staring at pretty girls who shake their booty while singing to groovy songs ( take note that the thing i mentioned first is of course more important to me than the latter =p ) At first, I was sticking out my tongue to almost every girl that appeared on screen because, honestly speaking, no one stood out. They were all bitchy, and they just kept on blowing their own horns, and then after a few episodes, I realised this one girl who actually caught my eye. She wasn't the best of the best, but somehow she had something in her that catches everyone's attention. I asked my sister bout her and she said that almost every guest star that appeared on that show immediately had a liking towards her. So, I silently clapped my hands and leaned my body forward a little nearer to the tv trying to get a better look at her. I wondered out loud if she won in the end, and everyone just gave me i-dont-wanna-know-the-ending-yet look. So, fine, I'm browsing bout it right now.. and guess what.. she won! HeHe. Well, she wasn't the only one, because the whole purpose of the show is to form a new girl group but who cares, as long as she's in, cause that just means i would prolly be seeing alot more of her on TV. XD
Ooh, wont you dance for me, dear Natalie?

I would like to say, "i could loosen up your buttons, baby" but that would be crossing a line and my Mrs wouldnt be too happy. So, my week of bimbotic shows wasn't all that bad. If it weren't for all the ladies, I would have been rolling my eyes instead of searching for my glasses just so i could get a better look. Can't wait for the next season of Gossip Girl, and as for Girlicious, I'll watching you *wiggles eyebrows* =p
And as i quote gossip girl ( and my mum) till next time 'you know you love me.. XOXO' (blergh.. so geli). Bimbos...XP

What we were waiting for ...
Only the most anticipated series, long awaited for it's premier in 2008.
And since it Is 2008, Happy New Year!
Did nothing much on the eve, thus making it seem more like a Crappy New Year. My roomate broke up with her boyfriend. I was about to enter my room when I heard the person on the other side of the door plunging the key into the lock so I just continued on walking ahead down the corridor. Sniffles were heard behind me but moving in the opposite direction and I knew that it was over. My roomate seemed okay. Guess it was the right thing to do. Who's to say.
So a couple of my friends came over and we had junkfood and drinks. Played cards through the night and when we got dead bored, we decided to watch a movie. Shoot em' up, the title read. Sounded interesting, and it was. Not a very logical show but nevertheless it was a perfect use of time. Want your children to eat carrots? Make them watch this show. I especially loved the sex scene of this movie. Unlike any other typical love making scene, this one includes him dancing around the room, still pleasuring her while taking out the bad guys with just a pistol.. They must want that orgasm that badly.
But what we were waiting for is not this show. I'm talking bout the very show anticipated by most lesbians and somehow more straight people that I would imagine.
What could be bigger ?

Finally!
Luck is on my side these few days and it's made me more than estatic.
I got my credits for anatomy and histology. One step closer to my final exams. We celebrated by running off to McDonald's and binging even though we were pretty much broke for the month. Watched I Am Legend with "adek" and "nenek" =p Was quite an impressive movie for such a simple story line though the ending was crap.
While watching Evan Almighty, Hantu IM-ed me, asking if I was going for the christmas bash that was on Saturday. I had planned to go but seeing as how my wallet wouldn't allow it, I decided to skip the charity event. And boy was I glad I didnt purchase the ticket for lo and behold! they had extra tickets to give away and I got THREE! Weeeeee!
Jaclyn Victor was superb as usual. She was really down to earth, hopping about without her shoes, inviting all of us to join her up on stage, and allowing us snap pictures with her. Really unfortunate that she was only in moscow for a day or two. We could have brought her around =p
------------------------
In a mood to relax since I've got the important part over and done with. Haven't been doing much these few days besides playing cards, chess and of course the highlight of my week.. Iceskating! There's a park in front of my hostel with a beautiful lake surrounded by trees. Fell down a couple of times since it's my first time and the part cleared for iceskating is not as smooth as those in the malls or what not. But over all it was good. I initally went to the park for a good morning jog which turned out to the discovery of the iceskating area. So yey! =D
Loving father helping his son up the stairs.. by pulling the hood of his jacket.
Brilliant
Damn, wonder how is it so easy to spot me.

Boo!
Why oh why have I watched Shutter 4 times already? Hate watching ghost movies but only because it fills my head with far too much ideas. Already I have a hyper imaginative mind, it doesn't help that these shows adds to it. Everyone who thinks they know me like to assume that I'd be least afraid of all this nonsensical crap. Wish I could say that I wasn't. Well the one good thing about watching the same show far too many times is, I know exactly when to close my eyes or look away without the help of the eerie music in the scenes. So this time around, I honestly didn't see the ghost at all. Hope I don't see her tonight. You see what I mean by ideas getting in my head! I think too much! Anyway I had a good laugh watching my friend(the one who made me watch the damn show with) watch the scary parts and scream her lungs out while I knowingly shut my eyes. Hehe.. BOO!

Wee.. finally feel like blogging. Partly it's because I have absolutely nothing else to do, or I wouldn't rather do it. I am still on the face-stuffing phase but I have been exercising regularly so it sort of evens it out.... I hope.... Been overeating these few couple of days that I feel so bloated most of the time. Visiting my relatives hasn't exactly been a good thing for my stomach. It's the usual, "Aiyo, you so thin liao!" and the "You don't eat over there wan ah?". I've even gotten a "Oh my gawd, what's wrong with you?". What the hell's wrong with me? OKay, so I lost a few back then, I'm gaining it now. I'm not That skinny. Besides, with the way these people are stuffing food down my throat, by the time I return back to Russia, I'd probably end up obese. It doesn't help that I don't do much the whole day. Only past time around here for me would be making sure my ass print is on the couch. We shall alternate between playing Kingdom Hearts 2 and watching movies!
Speaking of which, if anyone is about to watch Vacancy ( that new show with Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale) please don't waste your time and money. It was that sort of show you could summarize in a minute, totally predictable and it didn't have a proper ending. Yeeeesh.. Basically it was just a couple running around, away from people in masks. And as usual the characters in there are never really that smart. But then again, you'd realise everytime you watched a show, almost everytime you would hear someone remark, "Man, why the hell is she so stupid! She should have done that..." or " Man, if it were me, I would have done this instead... " Makes you wonder if that person Really was in a similar situation what would they Really have done. Most of the time I'd just imagine them running around in circles, hands thrown in the air. Now That's what you would have done!
I also watched Gray Matters the other day. I once saw the trailer for it online quite sometime back and I've wanted to watch it ever since. But when I came back here to Malaysia, I just couldn't remember why I was so eager to. And.... after watching it halfway.. with my mother.. I realised why. Loved the synopsis of it, but of course that would only be me seeing as how I could relate to the movie. My sister on the other hand just watched the whole damn thing and said.. " I don't understand. It wasn't much of a story,". Ooh I could just bang her head with the TV remote. Over all it's a typical romantic comedy with the typical 'You love my wife?' line, just with a play of different genders. One of the main facts why I love that movie is because there's Rachel Shelley who plays the role of Helena Peabody in the L word. *grins from ear to ear*.
But I must admit that I didnt quite enjoyed the movie as much as I knew I could. Mainly it's because I was sitting in between both my mother and my sister and the fact that I know that She knows I'm gay doesn't really put me in a comfortable position. I kept glancing over to her side to see how her reaction towards everything is. And I'm just waiting for her to cringe everytime a character supported lesbianism in that show. She surprisingly didn't. Either way, I'm hoping to trick her into watching more of these shows, so as to brain wash her and her simple mind. No joke.. Hehehe.. Wish me Luck!

Where Is The Love
Didn't go out today as my 'sprafka' (a piece of paper that's used to temporarily replace my passport as mine has been sent out for visa) has expired. Much too lazy to renew it at the Uni so I've decided to just hibernate in my room. Woke up today realising that I didnt change my sleeping position the whole night long. Reason for that would be because it's that time of the month for me and tossing around in bed would just make me feel uncomfortable wondering if the position i'm in would create any art decorations on my sheets. Tell me one good thing that comes out of my uterus crying every once a month besides the fact that I get cramps and it gives me a plausible excuse for skipping whatever activities I wish to run away from. Anyhoo, enough talk about that. Watched this show on peekvid called Appleseed. From the second Deunan came out with her weapon fighting off these cyborgs with her Tomb Raider stunts it just totally blew me away. I was literally placing my face inches away from the screen. Over all the animation was superb and the action was enough to keep my butt planted on the seat throughout the entire show. Only dissapointment was that Deunan and Hitomi didn't get it on which they soo should have. I felt the way they connected, the way they stared at each other... or maybe it was just what i secretly wanted.LOL. But only later on did I find out why. You see, Hitomi is a Bioroid;genetically engineered human and is incapable of certain human emotions such as jealousy and Love... ohh the horror... I bet Deunan could have taught her a thing or two bout Love.. *squiggles eyebrows and grins like a hot dog's vertically wedged in my mouth. Googled for the mo
vie after watching it and look what I got.
vie after watching it and look what I got.That's Deunan. A soldier, blond short hair, muscular, is extremely beautiful and has the perfect body.
This is Hitomi. Bioroid, black short hair, and constantly comments on Deunan's looks.
Isn't she cool?! I already have her as my wallpaper! Oh well, she'll be my obsession in the mean time, till i find something else to drool over.. Which wouldn't take too long. Hehe.
