Unwritten letters
Day 3 is here. Guess what? I don't think I'm gonna write today's letter. Hey, I might change my mind later and post one up I dunno but I doubt it. I can only see the letter ending up 3 ways so I really don't want to touch it. I mean it would probably end up a) some sappy suck-up letter or something, you know like those things you hear on mother's day father's day. b) some half-concocted unemotionless letter written just for the sake of writting it or c) the truth with the right splash of emoness. I mean we all know how that is gonna turn out and I don't wanna seem like I'm dissing my parents or that they're doing something wrong cause their not but it is called Pits of Depression for a reason. So the only thing I can conclude is I'd probably not write today's letter and tomorrow as well. Family's off-limits. Hey i might just contradict myself and post something up later who knows? I mean I've already picked out the songs I wanted to accompany the letters. So... we'll see. But again I apologize for not sticking to the routine. :S Sorry
Day 2 — Your Crush
Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl:
Dear Whoever You Are,
Hi, my name is Charmaine Chua. I doubt you know me or notice me. It doesn't really matter who you are either. It has always been the same story. I don't fall easily but I guess I crush like any other person. I never bother making a move because I know there's no point. You barely like me how can I ever expect you to love me? Maybe that's why I don't bother holding on the crushes and it looks like I have too many guys. I just never bothered with getting past the 'he's hot stage'.
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl
Sometimes I let myself believe I have a chance with you. I've tried to get myself to talk to you but well I'm scared. I am well as anti-social as I can be and I don't really take first initiative. I get really happy if you just look at me and just say hi instead of me saying hello and you just replying for the sake of it, irritation in your heart.
Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in
Everytime I get over you, you'd do something cool or you'd say something and I reenter this foolish, foolish cycle only to face disappointment once again. Sometimes it's easy and I know you just don't notice me. It's horrible though when I know you like one of my friends. It's life I guess. Who can blame them? They're wonderful, beautiful...I'm not. Plain and simple. Doesn't matter who; doesn't matter whether they return. It's the simple truth: It's just not me.
Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl:
I guess sometimes I wonder who's it gonna be tomorrow? It scares me knowing that anyone of you could develop like last time and become horribly disasterous. We all know how it turned out the last time. I guess I won't let it happen. I won't give my heart to you. I'll leave my love for night-time fantasies and celebrities. For fictional men who will never break my heart. It's not your fault, I'm not blaming you. It's me...I'm broken.
Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl
Here's where I end this letter I guess. There's nothing left for me to say not really. No matter what I say I'd always place my hope on you. That you'd be the one who would save me. To mend all the broken pieces. I'd always dream and I'd always hope. Hope...that's the only thing that drives a human being isn't it? What are we without hope but soulless creatures? What are we? What am I?
Yours trully,
Charmaine Chua

Letters to Ponder
Well day 2 is here and I'm procastinating the next letter. How I'm gonna last 30 days is anyones guess. Next topic: Letter to my crush. Problem is I don't really have a current real crush. Not really at least. There are some guys I have to hots for but nothing serious if you get my drift. Should I write to them? Should I write a general letter? Or should I write to a celebrity I've fallen head over heels for? If so, then who? First person in mind is Adam Lambert but what do I write? If I ever wrote a letter to him it'd probably full of fangirlish stuff and I don't want to write that on my blog here. So who and what should I write? Boy these letters are really bugging me man. I've spent the whole day of college today just thinking about who I should write to and it just goes round and round and round and I can't stop and pick anyone. Who Who Who?

Day 1 — My Best Friend
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...

Dear Aisyah,
Well I have no idea what to write without being overly corny sappy or just plain cheesy. I hope you are not hoping for some heartfelt declaration of love or some shit like that. Hahaha! You know me, that's not the kind of crap I write.
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good

So wow 11 years. It feels way way longer than that. I wonder how much of those early primary school life do you remember? I still cringe at all those horrid memories. In all honesty until this day I wonder when did we ever pass that line from being friend/acquaintances/mortal enemies(XD) to best friends? I mean that doesn't count all those childish times when we declared everyone mary, kate ashley and their sister was our best friends. I honestly can't remember the turning point but I can't seem to say I regret it.
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
No one believes me y'know when i tell everyone you corrupted me. That you introduced me to the wonderful world of slash. If only they knew the truth. Hmph! Damn you and your innocent facade. It's not just slash though, you got me into writing poetry (yea they're bad but good enough y'know?). Haven't written one in forever but you got me started on it. Can't say I regret it though. It was something else we could bond over instead of fighting whether Hakkai or Sanzo was a better hero. X l
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
Do you know it's your fault that I ended up in Bukit Jalil school? Yea you probably do, me being clingy and overbearing and all that. Can't say i regret that decision though. Sure I might have had better results in a control school but I have met so many wonderful people on the way. Who knew that still the last 5 years together in that school we could still stand to learn more about each other? Sure there were tense times but then there were also the best of times and there were the Phantom of the Opera times. Boy was that one weird and hectic time. Not just putting on the show but the aftermath as well. (And i managed to drag you into a dress XD) It was as it should be I guess.
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done you blame me for
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore
I guess that is all I can say. There are like a million things more I could put and yet nothing to write. I guess all I could say is I miss not seeing you every other day. I miss rolling my eyes and telling the teacher that Aisyah isn't here again. I miss laughing about the most random stuff that no one else seem to understand. I guess the bottom line is I miss you and I can't wait to see you soon.
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a bird in the wood
Your friend,
Charmaine Chua
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
And because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
have been changed for good...
PS. It seems like I'll have to leave the cliche bit here I guess. Thank you for everything.

Which Supernatural Angel Are You?
Hahahaha Hey guys. I'm back...kinda. Hahaha it's 3 am in the morning and I'm bored so I decided to go on about Supernatural. (Just finished Season 5 and am currently suffering from withdrawal XD) Ok so usual spoiler-warning and believe me, my post will be nothing but spoilers.
Hahaha so anyway check out the above personality quiz result. Haha so anyone surprised I'm happy. Well shame on you cause you don't know me well enough. XD Well Lucifer is everything I wanted him to be. An angel (of course all the angels are pretty much douche-bags so it doesn't really make him less evil does it?), charming, doesn't lie and is honestly anti-human instead of anti-god. He could have chosen a much handsomer vessel (no Sam Winchester is not) instead of some 40 something yea old man. Don't get me wrong, the actor played Lucifer brilliantly but I wanted a really handsome Lucifer. Sigh. Haha.
Well well well who would have guessed out of all the angels (excluding Castiel) my favorite one would be Gabriel. Haha it really surprised me; I mean tell me this like 3 months ago and I'd tell you you were insane. I mean the Trickster was hilarious and all (his appearance had some of the best eps) but wonderful or squeelable not really. And of all the archangels Gabriel has always been the blah one for me maybe because he featured the most in the Gospels and so it's like meh boring whatever. Seriously though Gabriel was just awesome. I mean as soon as he cut the whole 'I don't give a shit' persona and let himself out (talking about the apocalypse and such) I just knew I was going to love this guy. Maybe because I'm the eldest child (you'd think I'd actually like Michael (more)) just the way he acted the whole little brother way and the whole 'I don't want to see my family fight' kind of thing makes me feel so protective of him like I don't want him to get hurt. Haha a 18 year old girl wants to protect a centuries old archangel. Hahaha but seriously he is just so vulnerable under that mask of his. In some ways actually, he reminds me more of Dean than Michael does. I can't help but hope that God would bring him back to life. I'd miss him too much to leave him be. Sigh Maybe a bigger role? Haha now I'm just reaching.
Haha ok so I said excluding Cas. Why? Because Cas is the best thing that has ever happened to Supernatural and I have fallen head over heals for him. This guy takes deadpanned snarker to a whole new level since well for a start he isn't snarking; he's being extremely serious. Haha Repeatedly I've tried to shove my head into the television and give him a big hug (maybe like how cupid did XD poor Cas) When I laid eyes on him for the first time I knew I'd love him. I mean his entrance itself was just badass with a capital B. I must have really found something I liked in this fellow cause when Lucifer 'killed' him, I was literally screaming in my room. He gets better but that's not the point. That really hurt. Hahahaha great now I'm overreacting. Haha I ship Dean/Castiel but for some reason I don't enjoy reading fanfics about them. I dunno maybe friends first lovers later? Hahaha Cas Cas Cas
Ok season 6 theories. ok fine they are not my ideas but hey brainstorming's good right? Ok first thing Chuck is God. I mean there seemed no other reason to make him disappear all of the sudden without explanation unless they just wanted some cliffhanger or something. Good idea but I hope not. I kinda like Chuck as a person so I don't want him to be you know, God only pretending to be like that kinda thing. I mean I'd rather see it as he disappeared because he went to heaven (like Elijah did) because he accepted he was a prophet and had finished his job. He might be the new link for the boys and heaven, taking over Cas' job. I'm so worried that they'd push Cas aside the next season but the audience love him so much so hopefully not. I can't believe I didn't come out with this theory by myself. Cas said he was better than new and he is obviously so much stronger than before. He's been promoted to archangel. It makes sense; I mean Gabriel's dead (NO!!!!) and Michael and Lucifer's in hell/trapped so it makes sense God needed to replace them. If this is true there's a big chance that Raphael would be come the Bad in Season 6 though maybe not the big bad. It's better than the Crowley idea. I'd rather Crowley stick with good...well as good as a demon can be I guess. Last theory (for now), Joshua is Jesus. Haha a bit far-fetched but I really salute the guy who thought of it. Joshua=Yeshua=Jesus. Of course there are so many Joshua's in the bible but I can actually see the director's of supernatural pull something like this off. Honestly though I'd rather they didn't touch Jesus. I mean going off about God is one thing but Jesus is a bit too far. Too religeous even for a show like Supernatural and too pro-Christianity (or anti could work either way). I'd rather they didn't show God either y'know. Keep him mysterious. I dunno works better for me. Haha Michael and Lucifer should come back. I think either Michael would turn to the dark side or Lucifer would turn good (the first one is more likely though). I mean what else can we expect? They are stuck with each other for dunno how long. They'd probably bond pretty well.
Haha erm that's it I guess. Discussed all that I could. Haha I'm just posting this for the sake of updating my blog. Haha except for a few loyal readers I doubt anyone else is reading this thing. Haha probably would die soon. Haha k then. Bye guys.
PS: I got my writing mojo back. Hallelujah.

Hahaha I'm back!!!! Kinda... Haha exams coming up next week. So not used to A-levels with everyone being the study type. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha. I tried to delay until the last minute but gave up. There were way too many things to study and one night is not going to cut it. So now I'm studying Bio while watching Star Trek: The Original Series. No I'm not a geek! Blame the 2009 movie. Chris Pine (drool); Zachary Quinto (nose bleed); Leonard Nimoy (faints). XD Ok fine I only fell in love with Mr Nimoy after watching the original but still squee.
Hahaha. Ok so I'm a trekkie now. (haha kinda. Don't ask me what's the difference between an ensign and a yeoman. I have absolutely no clue.) Haha still don't really like William 'Ham' Shatner but I'm kinda softening up to Kirk. Love Spock (haha obviously. Stoic dead-panned snarker. What's not to like?) Haha I'm beginning to really like McCoy too. He's the type of doctor I'd probably end up as (if I ever become one) cynical and sarcastic. Haha. Watched 'The Empath' yesterday. LOVE the friendship between them. It's the logical choice, my foot. Just say you care for the doctor and don't want him to die. Vice versa. Mc Coy may say what he wants but he loves his 'green-blooded hob goblin'. Hahaha obsessed d.
Haha really high aren't I? I'm just super super happy right now. I PASSED MY GRADE 8 PIANO EXAM. OMG!!!!!!!!! So happy I want to cry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I never thought I could pass. So happy. Thank you Mr Examiner for loving me so much you'd pity me and let me pass. XD Lolz And also thank you to all my piano teachers who drilled me through all me grades. Especially my grade 8 teacher Ms Ong. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
Haha Over happy already lar my blog. I don't think I had such a hyper post before. Haha Don't worry my dear readers. I'll be back to my emo self soon. ;) Haha love you guys. Ciao

Improve your English
Haha I promise you that this is going to be a short post.
Well results are coming up tomorrow. Goddamn it I shouldn't be so damn scared. I should be all whatever who cares man. Hahahaha Am I silly for still aiming for straight A+? I know I can't do it goddamn it but... sigh... Maybe it's cause I'm banking on a scholarship so it makes sense but...I don't know. It's like years ago I thought it was like no problem. Sup sup sui! Looks like I was wrong.
I would usually say if you don't hear from me, I'd probably screwed my results badly but I can't since I've noted my blogging irregularity and I might not even post anything about it. Haha sorry people. I'll try my best.
Ok focus, short post right. Ok nothing much left to say. Err oh right. Anyway I was surfing the net and I found this great site. Improve Your EnglishSince our Malaysian English isn't what it used to be; this test can help you gauge how high your command of English really is. Check it out. I promise you I won't regret it.
Ok that's it. All that's left for me is to pray and hope for the best. Good luck fellow SPM students and good night.

Sherlock Holmes Review (Finally)
New blood joins this earth
And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rules
As I am typing this post I'm watching Sherlock Holmes for the third time and I have no choice but to fulfill my promise. Ok as usual I'm going to warn you off spoilers. I'm not going to bother hiding anything so if you don't want spoilers please don't read.
Well, it turned out so much better than I expected from the trailers. When I first saw the trailer I was like great another Hollywood screw-up. How glad I was when I was proven wrong (though Hollywood was still written all over it). I mean it was had Sherlock Holmes written all over it with a modern twist to keep it exciting.
With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away-eay
The first time I watched Sherlock Holmes, I knew very very little of the books. Just the basic that any bookworm should know. So I went through it like yea, not bad. But when I watched it the second time after reading at least half of Sir Arthur's works; watched the brilliant Jeremy Brett at work and I knew exactly what to expect from Sherlock and still it didn't disappoint. I loved how RDJ used Sherlock's quotes and twist its meaning to make it hilarious for all fans.
That I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been
So anyone who knows me well enough would know that the simplest way to get me hooked on any show is to give me all the bromance I desire. Haha Holmes and Watson are easily the Adam and Eve of Bromance. This pair must have really worked for me cause I don't feel like pairing them up together. They are awesome and their on-screen chemistry just hit the roof. Even in interviews RDJ and Jude couldn't keep thier hands off each other (in a total bromantic way). Haha who said only men enjoyed a good bromance every now and then.
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Jude Law. OMG He is so HOT!!! Even with the mustache he still was so handsome. I mean even I always imagined Watson to be some slightly brainless, overweight fellow following Holmes around. I never imagined that that interpretion of Watson to be wrong all along. Jude is exactly how Watson should be. He made sure that Watson got his due. I mean Holmes would never lower his standards to hang around with an idiot. Watson had his good points and bad points. He was a perfect compliment of Holmes. Most of things that Holmes didn't bother to learn about, he knew pretty well. That was Doctor Watson not a bumbling fool who was there for comic relief or to make Sherlock look brilliant.
They dedicate their lives
To RUNNING all of his
He tries to please THEM all
This bitter man he is
RDJ. What can I say? For some reason I never liked him before. Until now I don't know why and I feel so silly for ever thinking so. RDJ is a wonderful actor. I mean I've just watched Ironman and Tropic Thunder and I'm like O_O. RDJ's Sherlock is definitely unique in it's own way. I'm just glad they mentioned the cocaine in the movie (a small hint but still). I feel that the drugs were Holmes' fatal flaw and people tend to ignore it to make him more 'heroic'. Unlike many other Holmes, RDJ's Sherlock was human. They portrayed him as a different individual but still very human, flaws and all. A lot of fans doesn't seem to like that the movie concentrated so much on Sherlock's flaws but... I don't know... it just made it easier to relate to him I guess and while Watson's quote 'You're not human.' might relate to other Sherlock's, it just doesn't seem to apply to RDJ's Sherlock.
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me
Lord Blackwood...hmn... good villian but not great. I found that giving him a 'pitiable' past did not really make him a better villian but rather more cliched. Thank heavens they did not dwell on that. I'm just glad that they didn't decide to put magic in the movie. Halfway through it I actually believed they were going to and was sorely dissappointed. Thank God I was wrong. Heard a rumour that Brad Pitt was going to play Moriaty. Heavens no! Moriaty is supposed to be pretty old, at least compared to Sherlock. We don't need a pretty boy playing him.
What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be

Won't see what might have been
Irene Adler. Well I hated her and the role she played. I know this is Hollywood and all that but seriously a love interest for Sherlock Holmes? No way! I mean fine, there was no way they were going to make Sherlock asexual but come on, making out with Irene. That is out of the question. This is supposed to be the only woman who has ever intellectually beaten Sherlock but I really don't see much brains on her, at least not enough to satisfy. they made her into a criminal as well. Somehow that was to be expected and it really didn't bug me much but I found her pretty useless throughout the story. I'm glad Holmes left her on the bridge but we all know she is going to be back and I don't think I can stand anymore love-struck Holmes. Mary Morstan played her small role rather well. They showed her exactly to be the strong (and not over-bearing) woman she was described as in the books. No complaints about her. I eally wouldn't mind seeing more of her in future movies. (Good lord. Please don't let the writers kill either of these women off so that either lover will be extremely emo/swear revenge/or whatever other cliche)
What I've felt

So I dub thee UNFORGIVEN
Jeremy Brett, the best Sherlock Holmes ever (I'm sorry RDJ). I do love RDJ's Sherlock but Jeremy is the most classic and faithful to the books. I wasn't joking when I said this man inspired me in strange ways. I can't put it into words; nor can I pinpoint exactly what did he inspire but he did. Never had I felt so strongly a strange admiration for a person's life story before. I mean in all honesty there is truly nothing spectacular and yet... Maybe it's because this man is bi-polar. I freely admit, I'm pretty hypochondriac-like when it comes to mental-illness. Perhaps I'm worried about whether my strange mood-swings have something to do with bi-polarness or just plain depression. I don't think I'm depressed but then haha hypochondriac. Maybe what I'm in love with is the tragedy of the whole thing. How the meds that were keeping him sane were the ones that killed him after all. How not long after he died they found a way to replace(repair?) a faulty heart without doing a transplant. Maybe it's the fact that smoking was one of the factors that caused his death on it just hit too close to home with me since most of my family members smoke. I'm worried...nothing that I will admit out loud though. See? Damn it! A review of Sherlock Holmes also can turn emo. Sigh....

Klar. I think I'll stop here now. There's more that I should say but nah I think this is enough. Can't wait till the Sherlock Holmes sequel comes out. Right now I have to settle for watching all RDJ and Jude Law's old movies and catching up with the Sherlock Holmes Granada series. Goodnight everyone and thanks for reading. So sorry for the long break. Ciao.

Women of Silk River
I'm turning my back on this life for as long as I can,
Someone make me star 'cause I sure as hell can't be a man,
I'm too fragile and clever you know
And this universe just leaves me cold
I'm just hanging around here, I'm longing for someone to hold
Ok here's a review. Ok I know I know I promised I'd do one on Sherlock Holmes but...sigh. Maybe when I rewatch it, I promise. Then I shall tell you about how wonderful the movie was until I got into reading one of the most famous literature books of our time and how I got into two actors whom until now I have no idea how they slipped past my radar. Then I shall also tell you about a man I should have discovered long ago and how he for no reason at all brought out a strange inspiration in me. (Sorry sleepy, I know my sentences are not making much sense) I promise I shall get into all this some day soon but not now. Now I have another review to write about a play I watched no more than 2 hours ago.
You always knew didn't you Mother
You always knew as mothers always do
You always knew didn't you Mother
I was a stranger in this world
Ok so basically this play is about the 'amahs' of Malaysia. These are women from China who come to Malaysia and Singapore to escape the war. So the play consists of 4 amahs, their mat salleh mistress and a japanese stranger they found injured. In the sense of acting there isn't much I can complain about. I found the youngest of the four Amahs acting a bit bland but nothing to really complain about. The japanese dude was stiff but so typically of a japanese gentleman of that time so I can't really complain even I can only applaud him. Even when showing remorse for what he has done is done so remarkably stoically and yet the emotion was there. Brilliant. The mat salleh lady too does a wonderful job and even holds the stage when she begins talking to her invisible guests. The amahs all played their roles spectacularly and are pretty convincing in their roles.
This dumb education was never quite part of my plan
So you left me to ruin but I'll always know who I am
I'm too fragile and clever you see
And your universe just leaves me cold
I'm just hanging around here, I'm longing for someone to hold
Ok plot. Erm...well paced I guess. It wasn't too slow nor too rushed. It let the characters develop in their own time without killing the story. Wasn't too keen on the ending though. It just seemed to...abrupt. I mean it was a good ending, served it's purpose but it ended at the climax. Just as things were beggining to get fun. BAM! The end. Not my choice ending. There are some loose ends that just weren't tied up. Maybe they want the audience to figure it out themselves but...too loose if you ask me. For example the father of the baby. I mean the hints were all there I mean I could figure it out no big deal but without throwing any real light on it, it just lost it's purpose. I mean the identity of the father of the child just shed light on so many matters and gave a deeper personality to some characters but without really addressing it some people might have missed it and it was just lost. There was also a part where the 'head' amah wrote a letter to her friend in China telling her it was her last letter and she will explain why when she goes home. Wait what? After that she never shows any interest in returning to China (and the letter does sound like a suicide note which of course she hints nothing at) so what was the point of that line? Yes the letter explained her feelings but that line was so out of place. I mean this is not a movie; this is a play and every line counts even if it is meant for a comedic purpose. So what was that line for? Did I miss something?
You always knew didn't you Mother
You always knew as mothers always do
You always knew didn't you Mother
I was a stranger in this world
Hmm ok characters. I think that the British lady was a rather believable character. She reminds me so much that lady in Naukar, our English literature short story. She doesn't dwell on her homeland but she isn't used to Malaya that much is certain. She is so believable and there is little I can say I don't like about her. She is patient with the amahs which in any chinese family they would have probably been beaten or scolded. Even when she decides to cheat on her husband you can't help but root for her. The Japanese man played a rather small role in the story and had very little development but again, very believable. He is instantly likable and there is an endearing quality to him. The best thing about the amahs is that you can see where they are all coming from. I think that by using 'chieh' to call each other makes the bond between them so very believable. I find it pretty interesting that the 'head' amah is Catholic and pretty banana-like and yet she is the one who has such a firm hold on old traditions. The second and third Amahs are mainly comic relief I guess. I mean they do have their own characters but their stories are made to be pretty funny. The third's character becomes pretty annoying after awhile (since in the later part of the show she keeps repeating the same lines). The youngest is so believable and yet you just become so annoyed with her. In some ways she's pretty Mary-Sueish but the fact that the spotlight is hardly on her makes her more human and less annoying.
Whoever told you that these were the days of our lives?
The sweet boys they crumble, and the wicked ones rise and survive
And they're running our lives, yes they're running our lives
The lighting for the play was awesome. Of course I havent' watch any/many plays so I wouldn't know how it's supposed to work but yea the lighting was brilliant. Just the simple things changed alot and even the music suited wonderfully. My only complaint was at the ending of the play where things were beggining to be a little dramatic I think they overdid the music. I mean it was so hard to hear the characters talk and it seemed more like bombings was occuring. (Whether it really was I wouldn't know but they hinted nothing really) I think slightly less dramatic would have been nice. I think how they added Cantonese into the drama worked out nicely and for some reason it was funny every time they did. Though I think that there were parts where they put too much and went over board with it especially the Mandarin parts that non-speakers where a little lost. I realised that half of the audience weren't even chinese speakers so I think they should have found a way to cater for them. Overall good show. I'd definitely recommend it to those who enjoy watching plays. i find it a welcome relief from the action that is flooding the tv screens now and it's nice to watch and enjoy a character-driven drama. Well that's it then. Ciao

Then I shall tell you about how wonderful the movie was until I got into reading one of the most famous literature books of our time and how I got into two actors whom until now I have no idea how they slipped past my radar. Then I shall also tell you about a man I should have discovered long ago and how he for no reason at all brought out a strange inspiration in me. (Sorry sleepy, I know my sentences are not making much sense) I promise I shall get into all this some day soon but not now. Now I have another review to write about a play I watched no more than 2 hours ago.
You always knew didn't you Mother
You always knew as mothers always do
You always knew didn't you Mother
I was a stranger in this world
Ok so basically this play is about the 'amahs' of Malaysia. These are women from China who come to Malaysia and Singapore to escape the war. So the play consists of 4 amahs, their mat salleh mistress and a japanese stranger they found injured. In the sense of acting there isn't much I can complain about. I found the youngest of the four Amahs acting a bit bland but nothing to really complain about. The japanese dude was stiff but so typically of a japanese gentleman of that time so I can't really complain even I can only applaud him. Even when showing remorse for what he has done is done so remarkably stoically and yet the emotion was there. Brilliant. The mat salleh lady too does a wonderful job and even holds the stage when she begins talking to her invisible guests. The amahs all played their roles spectacularly and are pretty convincing in their roles.
This dumb education was never quite part of my plan
So you left me to ruin but I'll always know who I am
I'm too fragile and clever you see
And your universe just leaves me cold
I'm just hanging around here, I'm longing for someone to hold
Ok plot. Erm...well paced I guess. It wasn't too slow nor too rushed. It let the characters develop in their own time without killing the story. Wasn't too keen on the ending though. It just seemed to...abrupt. I mean it was a good ending, served it's purpose but it ended at the climax. Just as things were beggining to get fun. BAM! The end. Not my choice ending. There are some loose ends that just weren't tied up. Maybe they want the audience to figure it out themselves but...too loose if you ask me. For example the father of the baby. I mean the hints were all there I mean I could figure it out no big deal but without throwing any real light on it, it just lost it's purpose. I mean the identity of the father of the child just shed light on so many matters and gave a deeper personality to some characters but without really addressing it some people might have missed it and it was just lost. There was also a part where the 'head' amah wrote a letter to her friend in China telling her it was her last letter and she will explain why when she goes home. Wait what? After that she never shows any interest in returning to China (and the letter does sound like a suicide note which of course she hints nothing at) so what was the point of that line? Yes the letter explained her feelings but that line was so out of place. I mean this is not a movie; this is a play and every line counts even if it is meant for a comedic purpose. So what was that line for? Did I miss something?

Hmm ok characters. I think that the British lady was a rather believable character. She reminds me so much that lady in Naukar, our English literature short story. She doesn't dwell on her homeland but she isn't used to Malaya that much is certain. She is so believable and there is little I can say I don't like about her. She is patient with the amahs which in any chinese family they would have probably been beaten or scolded. Even when she decides to cheat on her husband you can't help but root for her. The Japanese man played a rather small role in the story and had very little development but again, very believable. He is instantly likable and there is an endearing quality to him. The best thing about the amahs is that you can see where they are all coming from. I think that by using 'chieh' to call each other makes the bond between them so very believable. I find it pretty interesting that the 'head' amah is Catholic and pretty banana-like and yet she is the one who has such a firm hold on old traditions. The second and third Amahs are mainly comic relief I guess. I mean they do have their own characters but their stories are made to be pretty funny. The third's character becomes pretty annoying after awhile (since in the later part of the show she keeps repeating the same lines). The youngest is so believable and yet you just become so annoyed with her. In some ways she's pretty Mary-Sueish but the fact that the spotlight is hardly on her makes her more human and less annoying.
Whoever told you that these were the days of our lives?
The sweet boys they crumble, and the wicked ones rise and survive
And they're running our lives, yes they're running our lives
The lighting for the play was awesome. Of course I havent' watch any/many plays so I wouldn't know how it's supposed to work but yea the lighting was brilliant. Just the simple things changed alot and even the music suited wonderfully. My only complaint was at the ending of the play where things were beggining to be a little dramatic I think they overdid the music. I mean it was so hard to hear the characters talk and it seemed more like bombings was occuring. (Whether it really was I wouldn't know but they hinted nothing really) I think slightly less dramatic would have been nice. I think how they added Cantonese into the drama worked out nicely and for some reason it was funny every time they did. Though I think that there were parts where they put too much and went over board with it especially the Mandarin parts that non-speakers where a little lost. I realised that half of the audience weren't even chinese speakers so I think they should have found a way to cater for them. Overall good show. I'd definitely recommend it to those who enjoy watching plays. i find it a welcome relief from the action that is flooding the tv screens now and it's nice to watch and enjoy a character-driven drama. Well that's it then. Ciao
You always knew didn't you Mother

PS Can't believe I've never mentioned about Taboo until now. This is Stranger in this World which is sang by 'Boy George' the main(?) character of Taboo. It's a really lovely song. If you've never heard about it you should check it out. Watch the West End one and NOT Broadway. Rosie O' Donell spoiled Taboo. Ciao again
On a clear day, I can see myself for miles
Oh Mother, oh Mother

Oh Mother, Oh Mother, Oh Mother...

College
Lately I've been hard to reach
I've been too long on my own
Everybody has their private world
Where they can be alone
Are you calling me?
Are you trying to get through?
Are you reaching out for me?
I'm reaching out for you
Ok this is like the 10th time I've open my blogger typed something than exited the site. I promised myself I'd get something out and I'm trying to do that. I can't believe my last main post was about SPM. Haha I didn't even blog about the joys after. Hahaha so what to blog about? Aisyah suggested to blog about college life and I shall try my best.
I'm just so fucking depressed
I just can't seem to get out this slump
If I could just get over this hump
But I need something to pull me out this dump
I took my bruises, took my lumps
Fell down and I got right back up
But I need that spark to get psyched back up
And in order for me to pick the mic back up
I don't know how or why or when
I ended up this position I'm in
I'm starting to feel dissin' again
So I decided just to pick this pen
Up and try to make an attempt to vent
But I just can't admit
Or come to grips with the fact that I may be done with rap
I need a new outlet
And I know some shit's so hard to swallow
But I can't just sit back and wallow
In my own sorrow but I know one fact
I'll be one tough act to follow
Well college has been on for about 3 weeks and yet it feels like it's been a month or more. Good thing, bad thing I dunno. I guess it's a good thing because maybe it's cause I am comfortable in a new environment so fast. A bad thing cause maybe I'm already bored with this new 'thrill'. In all honesty there is nothing so special about college like what we expected back in secondary school. It's like there's no real difference with school. More like a giant tuition class. I mean it's great no one cares anout how early we are for class but still... I always couldn't wait for all the clubs and activities but now I don't feel like joining any because of our packed schedule. But what kind of college life would it be without clubs and activities?
One tough act to follow
I'll be one tough act to follow
Here today, gone tomorrow
But you'd have to walk a thousand miles
In my shoes, just to see
What it's like, to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what it'd be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside each others' minds
Just to see what we'd find
Look at shit through each others' eyes
Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
So don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
They can all get fucked, just stay true to you
Haha on a side note there are absolutely no cute guys in my class. WTH? I mean were a few potential guys but they moved to a different class. The rest of the guys are all extremely quiet or/and are the typical chinese school students (not that I have a problem with them but they're not my type). I remember on the first day I met this extremely cute mat salleh (a bit short but who cares) and I was like that's him! That's the guy I've been waiting for. Haha (yea right I didn't even know his name what more what's he like) He kept walking up and down between the A-Levels and CIMP counters and I was like 'Dei make up your mind already!' and my heart was like 'A-levels; A-levels; A-levels' Haha he ended up in CIMP anyway and until this very day I can't find him. There are many mat sallehs whom I see everyday but I can't find the one I spotted on the first day. WTH Where did he run off to? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! Meh he probably has a girlfriend anyway. He's too cute not to have one. What would he want with a girl like me right?
I think I'm starting to lose my sense of humor
Everything's so tense and gloom
I almost feel like I gotta check
The temperature of the room
Just as soon as I walk in, it's like all eyes on me
And so I try to avoid any eye contact
'Cause if I do that then it opens the door
For conversation, like I want that
I'm not looking for extra attention
I just wanna be just like you
Blend in with the rest of the room
Maybe just point me to the closest restroom
I don't need no fucking man servant
Trying to follow me around and wipe my ass
Laugh at every single joke I crack
And half of 'em ain't even funny like
Ha! Marshall you're so funny man
You should be a comedian, god damn!"
Unfortunately I am
I just hide behind the tears of a clown
So why don't you all sit down
Listen to the tale I'm about to tell
Hell, we don't gotta trade our shoes
And you ain't gotta walk no thousand miles
Haha I still say girl. Until now I can't seem to comprehand that we are turning 18 this year. WTH? No matter how I look at it I can't be that mature; that old. I mean in some ways I have to admit I am mature for my age (yea like an old lady) so how can I not feel old? I mean in some (miniscule) ways, in three months plus I would be an adult. Me? Yea right. I feel no different that the girl who came in wide-eyed (yea right) into secondary school. In some ways I feel that I have long thrown her away and in some ways I am her. Maybe a more bitter, angry and cynical (but definitely happier) version of her but yea still her. Is this what life is about? Going through the ages and feeling no different but looking back, you just realize 'wait, I'm not her anymore. I'm not that naive girl.' and then you just realize that life isn't anything special and yet it's beautiful all the same.
In my shoes, just to see
What it's like, to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what it'd be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine

No one in my church believed I was outgoing in my school and no one in my school believed I was an introvert at my church. At first I thought that I did it because church held no interest for me then I realized that I was the same. I see myself in college and I realize that I'm no different than how I am in church and yet I can talk like there's no tommorow. So...what changed? What was it about school that made me so extroverted. Yea to those reading my blog (though they're mostly my schoolmates), do you think I'm an extrovert or an introvert? I know people can be a mixture of both but in the end you have to sit on one side. I mean in all personality tests I always assumed I was extroverted and so got my results as such, but then as I actually surveyed my life I feel mroe like an introvert and suddenly all my results have changed. I mean of course, in the end personality tests are based on how you see yourself so that is to be expected. And then as I went on I wondered, how can you be an extrovert if you lean towards anti-socialism and it's like 'who the hell am I?'

Nobody asked for life to deal us
With these bullshit hands we're dealt
We gotta take these cards ourselves
And flip 'em, don't expect no help
Now I could've either just sat on my ass
And pissed and moaned
Or take this situation in which I'm placed in
And get up and get my own
I was never the type of kid
To wait by the door and pack his bags
I sat on the porch and hoped and prayed
For a dad to show up who never did
I just wanted to fit in
Every single place, every school I went
I dreamed of being that cool kid
Even if it meant acting stupid
And Edna always told me
Keep making that face and it'll get stuck like that
Meanwhile I'm just standing there
Holding my tongue tryna talk like that
'Til I stuck my tongue on that frozen stop sign pole
At 8 years old
I learned my lesson then
'Cause I wasn't trying to impress my friends no more
But I already told you my whole life story
Not just based on my description
'Cause where you see it, from where you're sittin
It's probably 110% different
I guess we would have to walk a mile
In each others shoes at least
What size you wear? I wear 10's
Let's see if you can fit your feet
Haha why is it that all my posts end up so damn emo? Haha I guess it's not called Pits of Depression for nothing. Haha ok lar so proud of my long post. I hope it makes up for my hiatus. Haha If I'm in the mood I might post another entry in about an hour's time. Haha I reviewed Star Trek and Harry Potter. I feel that I owe Sherlock Holmes the same thought. Haha ciao then

Just for Laughs
Some examples of why the human race has probably evolved as far as possible. These are actual instruction labels on consumer goods..
On Sears hairdryer:
Do not use while sleeping.
(Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair!)
On a bag of Fritos:
You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(The shoplifter special!)
On a bar of Dial soap:
Directions: Use like regular soap.
(and that would be how?)
On some Swann frozen dinners:
Serving suggestion: Defrost.
(But it's 'just' a suggestion!)
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box)
Do not turn upside down.
(Too late! you lose!)
On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:
Product will be hot after heating.
(Are you sure? Let's experiment.)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron:
Do not iron clothes on body.
(But wouldn't that save more time?)Whose body?)
On Boot's Children's cough medicine:
Do not drive car or operate machinery.
(We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)
On Nytol sleep aid:
Warning: may cause drowsiness.
(One would hope!)
On a Korean kitchen knife:
Warning: keep out of children.
(hmm..something must have gotten lost in the translation..
On a string of Christmas lights:
For indoor or outdoor use only.
(As opposed to use in outer space.)
On a food processor:
Not to be used for the other use.
(Now I'm curious.)
On Sainsbury's peanuts:
Warning: contains nuts.
(but no peas?)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts:
Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.
(somebody got paid big bucks to write this one..
On a Swedish chainsaw:
Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands.
(Raise your hand if you've tried this.)
On a child's Superman costume:
Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.
(Oh go ahead! That's right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)

Sometimes I wonder, "Why is the Frisbee getting bigger?" Then it hits me.
Whoever said, "Nothing's impossible," never tried slamming a revolving door.
One out of four people is insane. Look at three of your friends. If it's not them, it's you.
What you're looking for is always in the last place you look" Well, DUH, smart one! After you find it, you stop looking!
Whose cruel idea was it to put "S" in the word "Lisp"?
Words and Thoughts to live by--
~A day without sunshine is like...night.
~On the other hand, you have different fingers.
~42.7 percent of statistics are made up on the spot.
~Remember, half the people you know are below average.
~He who laughs last thinks slowest.
~The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.
~How many of you believe in physokineses? Raise my hand. (I FINALLY GOT IT!)
~OK. . .so what's the speed of dark?
~When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
~Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now.
~Everyone has a photographic memory, some just don't have any film.
~Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
~Eagles may soar, but bunnies don't get sucked into jet engines.
~Why do psychics have to ask your name?
~Just remember, if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.
~Light travels faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

SPM Blues
0_0 So I have just went through the first week of our wonderful Spm exams. I'm angry with myself for not studying earlier and harder but what's done is done. Well hell has just begun for me as now I have to suffer throught Bible Knowledge but I WILL get through this. I have no choice. Well I guess my dreams of full scholarship has pretty much flushed down the drain.
The Bm karangan wasn't exactly hard this time around but then I can't really string a bm sentence together without making at least 10 grammatical errors so I'm rather freaked out. The paper 2 wasn't so bad. Not as hard as the other papers but...still scared. Sejarah paper 1 was quite hard and complicating. I didn't know most of the answers for especially form 5 so I'm scared. I want to check my answers but I don't want to spoil my mood.
English was well english. Again easier than the other tests though I'm not very sure about the last novel question but I did what I could. I mean throughout the book no one really had a hard decision to make. Kino and Juana decided things like pop and they do it. There wasn't a part in the book where they were like should I do this? Should I not do this? Most people answered Kino throwing the Pearl into the sea as a hard decision. His son died because of the Pearl. he didn't need to think twice. He just threw the thing into the sea. Hard decision? I don't think so. Another posibility is when Juana tries to throw the Pearl into the sea. It may have been a hard decision if I were in her place. BUT we are not told the story from her point of view. We do NOT know what she was thinking so technically that is a faulty answer. Maybe I'm overanalysing everything but that's how I see it.
Englsih essay. I'm pretty satisfied with my report. The usual; nothing really special. The long essay however... I mean getting an A+ for English no problem but it doesn't mean I won't give 150% in the exam. I don't think that I did. As I left the exam hall, I didn't feel the euphoria I usually felt for finishing a story. It was like meh. I think I was rather disappointed by it. They wasn't anything outstanding about it. It was pretty average and average is not good enough for me. Maybe because people repeatedly told me to tone down for the exam so I did. I think it was a wrong decision for me. I mean my writing is nothing special. That's a fact. I mean I have the command of the language but nothing too flowery. So I have to rely on the plot to carry my story. Did I make a mistake? Did i just lose my A+ for 1119? I don't know. I have never truly been disappointed by my essays before. In fact I had half a mind to tear the paper in the exam hall and redo it but there wasn't enough time.
I have given up on an A for Sejarah. Subjective I had very little problem with after coaxing the Holy Spirit for a bit. But the essays man.... I didn't remember a thing. The whole of my third question was semua tembak and I got all wrong for that so there goes 20 marks. I don't trust the rest of the questions either. So I can only pray that the grade will be pulled down or I will get my very own B.
Ok ciao guys. Need to rest a while before continuing my studies tommorow. Hopefully Lite teacher will get a clue and not give us so much work.
