The Movies At the Moment:
Things I want to Watch
|
October 25 I don't understand why... (poisoned by computer)Right now I'm typing this while being upset, but I'm pretty sure my mind is clear. My
mum had just screamed at me about bringing my laptop everywhere with
me, like I was poisoned. That was because she caught me bringing my
laptop with me into the bathroom and I stayed in there for over an
hour. Usually I bathe about an hour taking care of everything. I'm
fussy like that. The thing is, I know I'm not so much as addicted to the internet or the computer as I am with a person online. I
love her for who she is and hours can fly by just talking. We also
roleplay and its one of my hobbies. My only hobby in fact. We have a
long lasting storyline about two worlds for about four years and even
mailed each other presents. That's alot of history. I've told my mother I'm
bi and she fears I'm a lesbian, so maybe I am, but it doesn't bother or
upset me because I'm still looking for a boyfriend. Spending my days
online can seem sad and as though I don't have a life even to myself at
times, but I simply have no other interest. I'm cold shouldered by
nature unless I'm familiar with someone and I crave one-on-one
attention and devotion. Most people simply doesn't fit me and hence I
have none for company to go shopping, sporting, clubbing or any other
outdoor activities. If my friend were in the same country as me, we
would have done so together. And most parents would make a fuss because their child does not help with the housework and such
but I do. I brought the laptop in simply because I have finished my
chores and I have time. So when she screamed at me I simply did not
understand why. What did I do wrong? I know its excessive but I don't
see it as something wrong. I have the laptop placed so it wouldn't fall
and wouldn't get wet. I suspected she might have been
jealous but to scream at me till I started crying even though I don't
understand why for the matter has really upset me. I can live without
the computer. I have previous addictions with a story book or manga or
even just mp3 on my handphone. I can even attend family gatherings
without my computer or even talking to her. But when I have free time
and I'm not allowed to, I simply can't understand and am very upset. Can someone explain to me why she screamed like it was some big wrong? July 19 This WILL be a *LONG* one.I am currently listening to 21 Guns by Greenday - I had a hard time deciding if this or Close My Eyes Forever by Lita Ford for the song of the moment. In the end I made it the first song on the playlist so you'd hear it first thing while reading my blog. I know its only been two weeks since my last blog update but that really was just two book reviews so officially, I didn't make any updates since June 14. Todays July 19. That's more than a month so be prepared... for the LONG ONE! -smashes with with a wall of text- 1. Since then till now currently BURIED in work. No comments about school. 2. MY BIRTHDAY IS ON THE 9th of JULY. But I celebrated it on the 27th of June with my Mum. Then again on the 4th of July because my grandmother wanted to give me a special birthday for once (in a long while). Dinner was simple hokkien noodles but I loved it more than anything else. And I had all the cakes I wanted! Mummy brought me a slice of tiramisu, cookies and cream and sumatra. I did have a little tantrum episode which ended up me crying in public in North Point. Why? My parents were fussing over my weak and recently affected ankle and wanted me to use a new schoolbag when I love my now-not-current-but-was one. (Because most computer bags are not feminine or stylish at all. Blergh.) And because mummy kept trying to force me to buy a laptop sleeve even though I didn't find one that I want and I didn't want to carry my school items one in hand and the other in bag. So all that stress with my piled up homework ended up with the tantrum episode. Cakes I Had On the 4th of July - My Birthday  : : tiramisu:cookies&cream:sumatra from Bakerzin There was another cake from Prima Deli, a full round one which the whole family ate but I can't find it on the internet now. So actually I didn't really have any wishes for this year for my birthday. In the end I made the same wish I made every year for my results. I wanted to make another but it seemed like it won't come true so I'd rather save it for something practical. 3. Mothers Day and My Mum's Birthday! I gave her an Eeyore stuff toy from North Point popular and a glass mother's day appreciation frame for her to display at the office. She was sooo happy, it was so cute. ;] 4. My Recent Food Craving I have no idea why the sudden increase in intake of nutrition, when I'm not working more than usual or even exercising. But I've been eating loads lately and not due to any previously known reasons: stress, depression Also, I've been getting carnivorous. I CRAVE for meat. Beef. Cold cuts. And red food. oO Like, spaghetti bolognese. I just...REALLY REALLY REALLY REALY WANT! ...maybe my late nights are catching up with me and I'm evolving... 5. I will not be uploading any personal photos here. Just pictures of interest. If you want to see my face, go to my facebook account. Yea. Just adding this as number 5 before I forget. 6. I went to watch Ice Age 3! I really thought it was those pop out 3D shows where you put on glasses and I thought it was too good to be true when it was available at all movie outlets. Really it was just 3D rendering and while it looked awesome, I still felt a little let down because the advertisements weren't clear about it. I'm satisfied though, cause the movie was really funny and adorable. Buck reminds me of a cross between Indiana Jones and Captain Jack Sparrow. xD And there were so many romantic scenes between Scrat and Scratte, even while they fought over the acorn! In the end though, it just goes to show that males are too stupid for their own good. xD I love how the whole herd is like... Ellie's the mother sister and wise lady, Manny the macho simple minded country man who loves his wife, Diego the bachelor cow boy uncle, Crash and Eddie the troublesome twins and Sid the useless happy go lucky nice townie bum. It's such a lovely mix! 7. My June-July Shopping Spree! Sadly I can't find what I just bought online... this sucks... POOR MARKETING! -will take photos after they're washed- July 07 Dark Victory (The Masters of Time) Dark Victory (The Masters of Time)Author: Brenda Joyce ISBN: 0373773463 As always, I love Brenda Joyce's books. As well as her hunky alphas. This time its about Tabby and Macleod, who we knew from wayyy back in the series. Tabby's the witch in the Roses trio, and Macleod's the Rebel. They love each other through time, and overall, I enjoyed it. It got a little confusing with the timeline, but if you're focused enough, it shouldn't be much of a problem. Mostly though, I felt it was a bit anti-climax, since Tabby's fight wasn't all that spectacular and this time, the problem wasn't solved by the couple together, but rather the couple separately. Each one to their own. It's a new taste and feel generally. Now waiting for August to pre-book Dark Lover. June 16 2009 FIRST HALF BOOK REVIEWS2009 FIRST HALF BOOK REVIEWS  Dark Needs at Night's Edge (The Immortals After Dark, Book 4)Author: Kresley Cole ISBN: 141654707x A love between a ghostly ballerina with the style of 1900s rockstar and a om-yum-yum insane (with multiple personality syndrome) vampire who doesn't believe in ghosts can only be so romeo and juliet with lots of lols and smack palm-heads in between. Kresley Cole is a master of lovely twists and will keep you turning the pages to find out just how they will overcome their many obstacles. Personally, this book makes me want to hunt down the other books of this series. *Spoiler* Type of Ending: Tear-weepy-relieved-HAPPY  The Last KnightAuthor: Candice Proctor ISBN: 0804119309 With an almost Disney Mulan beginning, set in the 10th century, to survive past the first cliche chapter to at least where things start to heat up with the hunky said Last Knight one will have to throw away preconceptions of predictability and push forward to discover and delight in the surprising twists of the story. *Spoiler* Type of Ending: Pitypitypityshakehead awwhh... at least its happy  Heart of HonorAuthor: Kat Martin ISBN: 0778323838 Viking Craze! Here, you will suffer the beginning of the introduction of an atypical independent genuine heroine, who saves a hunky funky manbeast from the circus.

(19th Century Story) *Spoiler* Type of Ending: Smack-head Awwwwwh Yay! Happy!  Rough and Ready (Viking Time-Travel)Author: Sandra Hill ISBN: 0425213021 Vikings and Highlanders and Hunky Men have been my craze, (and I doubt i will ever drop it xD) and in here, I have been hooked by them SEALS. Yea, SEEAALLLSSS. ROFL. Sexy Elite Army Llllallalalalalalaaaa -drool- ...Nah, Sea, Air, Land (US Navy military special forces team member). But but not just yet! in this book, it can't get any better with the main guy, Torolf. He's a Viking SEAL. Spirited back from the past. Yum. Anyways, he and his hero-ism has to spirit him and his team back to Er Mei Shan.. well the Viking version. For those of you who don't know Er Mei Shan, it refers to a nunnery full of women with fighting skills etc and in this one, apparently they curse men to have their...erm... shrink. Anyways, there's several time trips in this one and will keep you flipping the pages to the end. *Spoiler* Type of Ending: OO... Ooooooo Happy ^ ^  A Dangerous Love (de Warenne Dynasty)Author: Brenda Joyce ISBN: 0373772750 Another Brenda Joyce story. I'm her fan =) This piece deals with racism, social statuses and martial conventions. Taken from Publishers' Weekly, Ariella de Warenne is an extremely well-traveled young gentlewoman with radical thoughts and an independent lifestyle. Viscount Emilian St. Xavier is half-gypsy, and his hatred for the gadjos-non Gypsies-threatens to consume him. And all hell starts to break lose when his gypsy family makes camp on de Warenne land. Anyways, read more to find out. It's a fist-in-your-mouth kinda story. *Spoiler* Type of Ending: Aren't all Brenda Joyce books happy endings?  Night ThunderAuthor: Jill Gregory ISBN: 0440237351 For all you modern cowboy lovers out there, this story is pieced together to flow most beautifully. This one of the most precise and concise yet intriguing love novels I've read and that is no small feat! Emotionally harrowing, a must-read. With a girl on the run, and a cowboy sheriff, I must say, it has all the prerequisites of action and suspense both in love, on horses and with guns. Pow pow! *Spoiler* Type of Ending: I'm starting to say I read only happy endings. It's expectable for this book. There's a death though.  Duchess of Fifth Avenue (Berkley Sensation)Author: Ruth Ryan Langan ISBN: 0425208893 She pretends to be English nobility. And naively believes that her coach is not who he seems to be. And neither is the house that he brought her to. Or the rest of the household staff. And she did it all to save her best friend's little boy. Lana came a long way from Ireland. Read how she makes it with the help of Stone, this...pokerfaced man with a charming smile and English accent which she assumes is such a womanizer the entire new york uppere class is going gaga over him. ROFL at this one, it's got me hunting for the author's books. *Spoiler* Type of Ending: Fairytale Happy. Yes, i like stories with happy endings. June 14 Murder By Boredom... ...is a slow and deliberate act of cruelty and inhumanity. It is often perpetuated by people whom the victims know or are acquainted with. These ingrate murderers take advantage of their victims' kindness and politeness to willingly listen to their tools of murder and the crime scene is often strewn with awkwardly-lying, lifeless drooling bodies, most of which are rendered comatose and brain dead. Such murders are committed over hours of quietness, occasionally disturbed by the restlessness of the suffering victims. Tools of murder include:
There are few survivors who live to tell the tale, but I am one of them. To survive throughout the torture, one must have an ear IV drip of one's favored music (mine is 98.7fm). It must be preferably non-descript, a small concealable ear piece. one must also have regular medication, examples are such as: drinks, sweets/candy, snacks for me, I had a constant supply of fried seaweed, 2 tuna croissants, 2 mini sausages, 2 mini banana muffins and scalding hot tea. So just how had I become a victim of a Murder by Boredom? On the 11th and 12th of June 2009, I had to attend the Singapore International Water Week service training for Singapore Polytechnic volunteers and Singapore Water Volunteers. On the 11th, it wasn't that bad. After dying in the morning listening to an obnoxious patronizing bias woman yak away about how to put thimbles into all the taps and shower heads so that you don't waste so much water because it reduced the water flow to just three or four pin pricks of holes. ~ ~" Then we had excursions to the Marina Barrage (which was very nice), the NeWater plant (which I went before) and the Deep Tunnel Sewage System (DTSS) (which was really cool cuz we get to go down 25 storeies underground to look at teh awesome pump shaft that sucks all the yucky sewage from the 6 meter diameter sewage tunnel... yea. That wasn't so bad, except for the fact that I got dropped off at the Tanah Merah Mass Rapid Transport Station. Dx I live in YISHUN for gawd's sake! Anyways, on the 12th, we died in the morning again, with this guy repeating in detail everything the woman said yesterday. It only got better during the afternoon with this woman giving us an interesting and animated lecture on how to be a good service provider. She kept making us do stupid exercises xD which wasn't for the lecture, but to stretch ourselves. It was amusing until she started taking our clapping as applause. Which just makes me not trust her exercises anymore xD So, contributing to all that, my best friend Jasmine's folks dragged her all the way to Munich all the sudden where she doesn't have internet to link up to me and won't stay at her dad's friend's place where her dad's friend's son was so friendly as to help provide the wireless. -.- Therefore, here I am, being Murdered By Boredom. It's actually a living diabolical consciousness. Missing Jas, Luc. |
