{ 'Blogging' for Nincompoops }

There's this blogging platform out there which is rather moronic. Nincompoops use them.

Ignoring the horrible name which is almost unpronounceable, it's missing an e to mean either a performer who does tricks, physical feats or a container for drinking, okay that wasn't ignoring but whatever, everybody blogs the same old thing.

Everyone re post a big spam of pictures or videos they've seen somewhere and then they call it their blogpost. There's a lack of originality. Not all users are like that but most of them are! Pictures and more pictures grabbed from somewhere and hardly, or rather, no words. Boooorrring.

The New York Times had this for T****r,
T****r makes blogging blissfully easy.

Well I say, it makes 'bloggers' blissfully lazy.

{ Fantastic Fascination }

If I could choose to read a biography about an asian actress or have a meal date with that person, I would choose Joan Chen. Really random post but I've been noticing her and when I first chanced upon on her, way back in my lower sec days when I was first fascinated by asian artsy movies, I thought she was a really fantastic actress.

{ I've been cheating on you since I don't know when }

I just woke up. At 1.39pm. And I'm so happy and glad and all other positive feelings that makes you smile to yourself and that makes your heart light and fluffy. I'm worry-free.

I love this feeling of having nothing to do. And I'm still lying on my bed as I type this, with my teeth unbrushed. (okay, too much info)

Anyway, Mrs Mak help rekindled my love for ABBA when she asked me to rip the songs off the CDs and into her MP3 player. And I'm bobbing my head, shaking my hips, flipping my hands(??!!) to the music.

Although I didn't grew up in the era whereby ABBA was a big hit but I kinda grew up with them because Mr Mak doesn't listen to the radio and he had their CDs in the car and he always played them while driving.

Off to do nothing. Which actually is something because doing nothing is still something.

{ So bad, you gotta watch it. }

Which movie is so bad, really really bad, that you have to watch it for yourself to believe how horrible it is.

Well that would be the Twilight Saga: New Moon.

For a start, I don't think Robert Pattinson even fits the bill as a charming vampire lover. Anyway, I thought that the movie seemed like it was made of different short videos and then they were put together to form a movie. The connection between the scences were weak and the action comes really sudden without much explaining.

This is definitely not for those who didn't read the book. Which is sad. Because in my opinion, a good movie adapted from a novel, should be able to perhaps evoke the same emotions in the audience as it did for the readers.

So, go catch it and see for yourselves how awful it is.

{ small, little dream }

This series of cards were made for Melvin, Dean and Boong respectively.





Sometimes I imagine myself in a small little shop, with racks of hand-made cards by me, and shelves with notebooks of different sizes and papers painted with so many different colours and of different textures.

Anyway, I got pulled in to this CIP project which I think is pretty big and it's gonna start next year. Ughh. I hope I can manage everything.

{ Wordpress }

After Jem's advertising for Wordpress today on how it's really got alot of privacy and that it's damn cool, I'm awfully tempted to move. But then again, we'll see.

{ Ganz Nah Bei Dir }


A little bit of randomness and some spontaneity and we found ourselves at the German Film Festival Showing.
Fantastic show with good actors. Clean and simple and funny without trying too hard to be. Love it.
