finished norwegian wood, glad that i ended up watching this in the middle of the night i think it really suits the feel of the movie.
thumbs up.
my favourite part about it was the ending, it respected the open ended ending that haruki marukami wrote but yet guided many lost and wondering readers towards the likely explanation.
but it was one long movie, my heart almost couldnt take it.
time for me to go read the book again (:

koukuhaku.
one fucking twisted movie.
but with damn impressive and artistic cinematography that makes you go omg how did they manage to capture such scenes and a good soundtrack (it was the last place i was expecting to hear fantasy by the xx wow)
actually, ive been quite disappointed with the movies that i have wanting to watch for so long: tokyo sonata, akunin and kouhaku.
but nonetheless, japanese movies are still my favourite (:

you know those questions celebrities always get asking them 'which part of you are you most satisfied/disatisfied with'.
well im not a celebrity but im going to answer one myself.
i am fucking dissatisfied with my teeth :(
seriously if there is a teeth god in this world, why have you been so fucking against me since i was born. :( :( :(
first got both my front teeth knocked out, had gum covering the new teeth that tried to grow out afterwards, extra canine tooth growing on top of my other innocent tooth and then braces to push down that damn canine and then the braces failed to make my teeth straight at all :( :( :(
ok back to reading ramen blogs woohoo :D

social media is fun and interactive.
it gives you an outlet to share your thoughts and update your statuses.
but at the end of the day, what channels are left for you to put up anything private.
there are the things you put up with the intent to share with your friends and then there are the things you dont want to tell everyone.
maybe the only way to get something off your chest while still keeping it private would be just talking to yourself in your head.
its 11.39pm now.
ive got a morning class tmr and i hate getting little sleep.
i have a 5% quiz tmr and i have not started studying.
the textbook is flipped open in front of me but between sleep and studying, sleep > studying.
well ok i shall read for an hour and then sleep.
the national will accompany me.
this band has successfully sung its way into my heart.
when i first saw this video, immediately i knew this song was going straight up to the top <3
and at the beginning, matt went 'this song is for carine'.
aww matt why are you so sweet and go about wearing your heart on your sleeve <3
sorry terrible love but about today is just so heartwrenching.
and two more songs to add to my favourite the national songs: think you can wait and runaway.
just 4 more days.
why.
my heart couldnt take it come back ok?
pinky promise.
now back to performance evaluation and management... zzz...

i dont normally read the papers but today when i saw that the quake and tsunami was on the front page, i decided to take a look.
page after page of articles on how things seem to be getting worse for japan.
after the killer twin combo, now there's a huge threat of radiation leakage which can lead to diseases and birth defects for the future generation.
why oh why it breaks my heart :(
and damn tsunami, you took the national after from me!!
3 more days and i would have seen them live! :( x2
but well, i was youtubeing as i normally do and i saw new remioromen live videos being uploaded (remioromen is my all time favourite japanese band)
and wow this video is like an explosion of energy and its a very pick-me-up song.
so positive and enthusiastic, so much love from the crowd.
i wouldnt expect anything less from the japanese.
japan, you can do it <3

omg why does it seem like im so emo when i come and see my own blog.
ok people i am actually not suicidal, its only when unhappy stuff happens then i bother to blog.
but on a lighter note, i am sunburnt.
like a freaking freshly cooked lobster.
during the past 10 weeks of school, i think the handball team has never experienced a day without being sunburnt/cao ta.
first: handball carnival at ntu
second: waikiki
third: round 2 of handball carnival at ntu
my mum was complaining to me this morning that i look like bao jing tian now :(
btw: i used to love the bao jing tian dramas (cant rmb if its hong kong or channel 8 though :/)

sometimes i feel like whats the use of being so strong and independent.
at the end of the day, people may just think that i can handle it when actually i cant.
and it really pisses me off how some girls are so weak and attention seeking sometimes, what about that is attractive at all?!
ok i seriously need to learn how to stop projecting my own standards and values onto others, people are different and i cant expect people to think and feel the way i do.
times like these are when i feel the most lonely and different from everyone :(

one of the best things ive read in a long time (:
狮子不是一个平常的星座,
狮子座的女孩抑不是平常的女孩,
她充满阳光的气息,
常喜欢指示别人,
她的家庭不一定很是富裕,
但她都是习惯了养尊处优,
她很优秀,
也习惯了掌声.
她五官或许不是很精致,
但却有一种想让人多看一眼的独到气质.
她喜欢热闹,
总会成为聚会的焦点,
她也享受孤独,
静座在一个人的房间听着很伤感的音乐.
或会有人对她嗤之以鼻,
她也总是一笑而过.
她总是习惯在人前伪装的很坚强.
其实她很脆弱,
也很善感,
看到电视剧情节的感人之处,
听着伤感的音乐,
或是读到了小说里的别离时刻,
她的眼泪都总是情不自禁的掉下来.
她经常会觉得孤独,
寂寞,
抑是想一个人.
她从不轻言爱,
她的爱很沉默,
那并非是因为她缺少那份勇气,
在她的心里有一到栅栏,
那就是自尊,
她看得比生命更尊贵的自尊.
如过有一个狮子女孩对你说她爱你,
那么,请你好好珍惜她.
即使你不爱她,要拒绝,也请你委婉点,
因为当有一个狮子女孩向你说她爱你的时候,
那就代表在她的心里你的分量胜过了她的自尊,
甚至,她的生命.
反之，
当他说恨你时，
那就是真的恨你了，
不必有太多的对比起，
因为当她一旦恨了，
就不会有喜欢的余地了，
就是因为她的心真的受伤了.
写给狮子座的女孩,
我欣赏狮子女孩的坚强,
欣赏她的果敢,
欣赏她的淡然.
有时我也为她而心痛,
她的心脏时常会痛,
就象那些碾转在自尊下的爱,
疼了痛了哪怕心都要死了,
也说不出口.
但我不觉得不值,
因为我也是狮子座的女孩

went for laneway yesterday!
in some ways, it didnt meet my expectations but in some ways, i had loads of fun.
mostly had loads of fun dancing and singing along to FANTASTIC MUSIC <3
warpaint was up first.
I LOVE THEM, THEY ARE TOO AWESOME.
one of the best girl bands around? :D
girl power hehehe!
but the crowd was like not reacting to them at all? WTF MAN PEOPLE.
maybe they should perform at night, the atmosphere would be much more suitable for their music.
but the girls were great on stage, enjoying themselves on stage nonetheless.
my favourite song from warpaint set would be beetles, 10x better live damn shiok :D
ladyhawke was next, i sat down and didnt bother.
beach house was after that, moved slightly more in front but i think they are not festival music.
better off in some intimate setting like esplanade!
deerhunter was 4th.
AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
performing live really gives their music bonus points, their music is like a build up of magical full sounds enveloping you hehe.
and when my favourite nothing ever happened kicked in, SHIOK MAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.
and a very polite band!
holyfuck was good just as i expected but it really blew my mind that it sounded so good and so shiok!
maybe it was like the good sound system or smth but holy fuck sure knows how to produce good good good music to get us enjoying ourselves :D
then we skipped !!! for dinner :x
came back for yesayer, and the whole time i was just waiting for them to end and for foals to come on :x
and then FOALSSSSSSSSSS.
BEST. PERFORMANCE. OF. THE. NIGHT.
FREAKING LOVE THEM <3
every single song they played was awesome.
best songs were probably cassius and balloons, got the crowd going crazyyyyyyyyyy.
got to hear my spanish sahara <3
but whats up with singaporeans, too lazy to sing along or what tsk HAHA.
and the night ended with temper trap!
some bits were abit boring, they had veryyyyyyyyyy long transitions.
but of course if your songs are good, it makes up for everything :D
fader and down river got the crowd going the most and love lost and sweet disposition were the singalongs <3
down river was surprisingly good live, i normally skip down river when i listen to temper trap :x
and omg the lighting effects were damn awesome lah, totally made the performance even more up HAHA.
but they didnt play soldier on, COME ON MAN WHY NOT :(
whole thing ended at like 130am, drenched muddy and tired.
my jc class was playing tong xiao mahjong but i skipped that and decided to go home instead, totally knocked out in the cab HAHAHA.
ok off to catch up on work zzzzzzz

yesterday, i went for the tarot card reading thing at the univantage bazaar.
i originally wasnt interested, i told myself i wont go for such things again after the retarded palm reading.
but you know how in life things always dont turn out the way you expect to.
so i got a message from yihui in the afternoon saying she went for the reading and reserved the last slot at 350pm for me.
well ok so i went.
first time going, didnt really know what questions to ask.
but i think i should record down the stuff i was told so that i can look back and be like 'wah so true' or 'wah so rubbish' HAHA.
- new people in my life may not stay, just coming and going
- there are some conflicts right now, be in with others or within myself
- some people are hiding things from me, perhaps monetary concerns
- there probably wont be anyone soon
- i am logical and fair in relationships
- relationships arent my first priority
- head over heart (i beg to differ)
- should channel my energy somewhere else and excel in that area instead
- queen of swords, ace of swords, guy carrying swords
- stable and peaceful family, perhaps boring
- page of wands: child like, likes things to be done quickly, likes a constant flow of new events, outgoing
- career will be tough in the beginning
- but i am emotional strong so ill tide through it
- bad times will end at a particular point
-
