Spoof Movies

They seem to be a popular thing nowadays eh?? I rmb wen they 1st Scary Movie came out..

Now that was a damn gd spoof movie

Heck even the sequel was pretty good

But it was all downhill from there....

The next 3 Scary Movies didn't come close to the original 2. Probably bcoz the Wayans brothers didn't want anything to do with them...but surprisingly they were able to come up with 3 more before trying something new....

I didn't even bother checking up on this movie b4 giving it a miss in the cinema..Thank god! The feedback was terrible and my friends who paid money to watch it (cinema/dvd/vcd) regretted it like hell! Kudos to the creators for making an attemp at a fresh start and trying to stray away from the norm (another messed up scary movie)

Next they tried Date Movie..I have to admit i kinda enjoyed this movie and it had mixed reviews..Even among my friends it was a 2 way tie..

Ya'll prob wondering y suddenly the post on spoof movies... Well thats bcoz... on the 22nd of May, this coming Thursday... yours truly has to go 2 Megamall and review.......................................

-_-

I guess i shouldn't be complaining since i'd be getting free tickets along with small coke n popcorn...plus it says dat d creators of scary movie..hoping they mean d 1st 2 movies..i noe d wayan brothers aren't acting in it but hopefully they were involved in the plannin n creation process...but d actual reason y I is not complainin is bcoz.. its at 10.30am!! I get to sleep in!

Normally i'd be watever but bcoz its this coming thursday (morning after Champions League Final between Mu n Chelsea) Im over the moon with joy!! *does a little jig

So yes i get to watch my team play in the early hours of the morning, sleep in, watch a movie,eat popcorn n drink coke 4 free and not be a mindless lack of sleep zombie!! Awesome no! Now all i need is 4 MU to play an awesome game n win den it'll b perfect

peace out n later days

Found this on xkcd.com

peace out n later days

END TIME: 12.30pm (last part needed some thinking)

Emotions of 14th (wednesday) May, 2008

I'm disgusted that New Zealand only lost to Argentina by 1 goal when Malaysia got trashed by em 5-0....

I'm shocked it's gonna cost my dad that much 2 get his phone fixed..i admit its no small thing wen u drop a samsung phone into a basin of water..but no way is he gonna pay dat much 2 fix his phone..can buy damn nice new 1 with dat sorta money...shit dis means i dont get my phone back anytime soon..

I'm happy Malaysia is in the Thomas Cup semi-finals.. although we're now facing the number 1 seeds China but hey at least we're there

I'm irritated with the Marketing ppl of Hotel Maya (sorry Zubin) who took so long to get bck to me on confirming my appointment..Now i have to review Maya Brasserie's Portuguese/ Nonya Cusine promotion and eat for free on my off day! grrrr.......

I'm surprised how cold it got on Wednesday at the office... And i wasn't the only one who noticed k..

I'm relieved I finally remembered that Corinne Bailey Rae song I wanted to download

I'm disappointed my byline articles aren't getting printed but my press releases/promo articles are..

I'm pissed with USM ppl bcoz they put up the link for my provisional results but then not put the results there.. like WTH!

I'm excited at the prospect of watchin Narnia this weekend and also Friday night plans 2 hang with the Klg gang..

I feel sad for all the victims and familes off in Myanmar, China and India...

I wish I was handing missing her a lot better than I am right now..

Think David Cook's version

You'll always be a part of me

I'm a part of you indefinitely

Girl don't you know you can't escape me

ooh Darling cause you'll always be my baby

And we'll linger on

Time can't erase a feeling this strong

No way you're never gonna shake me

ooh Darling cause you'll always be my baby

Always n forever... missing you baby girl...

Important Life Lesson...

As though things couldn't get worse for the victims of Cyclone Nargis

A Red Cross boat delivering supplies to help 1,000 victims of last weekend's cyclone sank Sunday when it hit debris in the Irrawaddy Delta region, as the U.S. prepared to deliver relief supplies to Myanmar.

"The crew managed to get to the safety of an island, along with four Red Cross staff who were on the boat," Red Cross official Joe Lowry said. "But we've lost most of the cargo."

The double-decker relief boat was carrying about 100 bags of rice, 5,000 liters of drinking water, 10,000 water purification tablets, 200 water storage containers, 10 stretchers, 30 boxes of clothing and household items like soap. - CNN

Imagine telling the people waiting for aid, "Sorry but the ship with aid has crashed. Its gonna take longer then expected." Can u imagine the locals thoughts.. "The Gods must be crazy...or angry"

Personally i think its a little bit of both....

9 in the afternoon

PANIC AT THE DISCO

"Nine In The Afternoon"

Back to the street where we began
Feeling as good as lovers can, you know
Yeah we're feeling so good
Pickin’ up things we shouldn’t read
It looks like the end of history as we know
It’s just the end of the world

Back to the street where we began
Feeling as good as love, you could, you can
Into a place where thoughts can bloom
Into a room where it's nine in the afternoon
And we know that it could be
And we know that it should
And you know that you feel it too
'Cause it's nine in the afternoon

And your eyes are the size of the moon
You could 'cause you can so you do
We're feeling so good
just the way that we do
When it's nine in the afternoon
Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could 'cause you can so you do
We're feeling so good

Back to the street
Down to our feet
Losing the feeling of feeling unique
Do you know what I mean?
Back to the place
Where we used to say
Man it feels good to feel this way
Now I know what I mean
Back to the street, back to the place,
Back to the room where it all began, hey
Back to the room where it all began
'Cause it's nine in the afternoon

Your eyes are the size of the moon
You could 'cause you can so you do
We're feeling so good
Just the way that we do
When it's nine in the afternoon

I cant believe i haven't talked to u in 4 days...
It's the first time i've let this happen...
I'll make up for it baby i swear...

Here's to Mu winning a double dis season!

Last nite(early dis mornin) i had a moment..There have been moments like these b4...nail biting tension moments where u cant wait 4 d ref 2 blow his whistle n end ur missery...but last nite seriously reminded me of a previous moment like dis... d 1997 final with bayern munich..sitting in front of the tv with dad n praying 4 a miracle..n it did...nostalgia sial!!

Alot has changed since dat moment...well most noticeable is d fact im older..my dad didn't stay up 2 watch the match with me..hence d fact i couldn't scream out emotions coz everybody else was sleeping..(post election times:cannot wake YB frm beauty sleep..very dangerous) n most importantly its d first champions leauge final MU has entered since winning d cup 11 yrs ago... some things were d same... i still jumped up n punched d air wen scholes scored..did d same wen d final whistle blew..i even felt d same tension n eventual joy n pride....How i wish i was there.. being s'one who supported Selangor n watched 2 of thier cup winning finals, i noe how it feels 2 b in a stadium n watchin ur team win s'thing....

I honestly loved d way MU played n mind u dis was minus Rooney or Vidic..everybody played damn well.. ppl like brown, hargreaves, ji-sung, nani, tevez n scholes proved their critics wrong and played a damn gd game.. ppl like ferdinand, ronaldo, nani n carrick played like they've been playing all season...fantastically... d entire season i've been defending scholes against me frens n finally it paid off.. k he's not at his best but the man is still brilliant.. i'd pick him over stevie G or frank lampard any freaking day..I cant wait 2 see wat the Hatchet Man has 2 say in tmr's NST or if he'll say anything at all..last thing i read frm him was how n why he hated MU...hmmmmmm

sure as hell looking forward 2 d final...but b4 shooting dat far ahead, i cant freaking wait 2 see who wins later 2nite (early tmr mornin) chelsea or liverpool... as a biased MU fan i wanna c liverpool make d finals as chelsea just beat us in the EPL..but as a general football fan i just really wanna see both teams play their best n a gd game of football...


Damn i love dis game... i really miss playing open field...sighhhh!!

Moscow..here we come!!

peace out n later days ya'll
