do not lambast others’ beliefs to make yours seem superior.
it doesn’t work that way.

Mr A-Z finally got his well-deserved Grammy! not one, but two wooot.
i’ve now resorted to banning myself from watching any more Liverpool matches cos they lose when i watch and win when i don’t. damn sad case.
why oh why do weekends fly by so fast?? 
you know the annoying Visa commercial you’re forced to watch before every GV movie? the one with the guy dancing his stupid dance around the world?
he isn’t just a random actor Visa hired, he really goes around the world and films himself doing that dance!
what an uplifting video. pretty amazing stuff, what he’s doing. traveling around the world? sigh some people have all the luck.

behold my most favourite dog breed:
big head, much?
sooooo cute omg. i want one!!
watch it cos it takes you to a world beyond imagination.
watch it cos it gets you thinking.
watch it cos it’s outlandishly weird… in an interesting way.
and above all, watch it cos it’s Heath Ledger’s last film ever.
i must say, his first scene as a ‘dead’ man hanging from a bridge was kinda morbid, given the circumstances of his death.
but oh well, gotta give credit to the director for bringing Heath “i only do this because i’m having fun” Ledger back to life in this film, albeit momentarily.
sunburned hands and XS-sized latex gloves DO NOT go well together.
neither do sunburned thighs and skinny jeans.
:S
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
- William Ernest Henley

Hear me say I’ll rise up ’til the end
Hear me say I’ll stand up for my friends
And I crash to the ground
And it’s just my own sound
I drop in the blink of an eye
I’m colorblind
when oh when can we Bang! again?
sorry for the lack of updates, but there’s always a time when one feels tired of blogging. haha.
for now let me just say, happy 2010 in advance! and please watch Avatar in 3D cos it’s frickin awesome!! you get to see yummy Sam Worthington too, but that’s beside the point. best movie of 2009 imho! haven’t caught Sherlock Holmes yet though, now that’s gonna be good for sure.
random: i love the Canon commercial on tv, the one with Avril Lavigne’s Innocence. oh, and the Tiger beer adverts in the newspapers (something along the lines of “Let’s welcome the year that matters”. the year of the tiger, geddit?)
1 more day of work tomorrow (NUS declares new year’s eve a holiday) and then it’s a well-deserved break for me all the way till 11 Jan! life is good.
Well sometimes the sun shines on
Other people’s houses and not mine.
Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
And it takes away my summertime.
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you,
While I struggle to get mine.
If there’s a light in everybody,
Send out your ray of sunshine.I want to walk the same roads as everybody else,
Through the trees and past the gates.
Getting high on heavenly breezes,
Making new friends along the way.
I won’t ask much of nobody,
I’m just here to sing along.
And make my mistakes looks gracious,
And learn some lessons from my wrongs.Well sometimes the sun shines on
Other people’s houses and not mine.
Some days the clouds paint the sky all gray
And it takes away my summertime.
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you,
While I struggle to get mine.
A little light never hurt nobody,
Send out your ray of sunshine.Oh, if this little light of mine
Combined with yours today,
How many watts could we luminate?
How many villages could we save?
And my umbrella’s tired of the weather,
Wearing me down.
Well, look at me now.You should look as good as your outlook,
Would you mind if I took some time,
to soak up your light, your beautiful light?
You’ve got a paradise inside.
I get hungry for love and thirsty for life,
And much too full on the pain,
When I look to the sky to help me
And sometimes it looks like rain.As the sun shines on other people’s houses
And not mine,
And the sky paints those clouds in a way
That it takes away the summertime,
Somehow the sun keeps shining upon you,
while I kindly stand by.
If theres a light in everybody,
Send out your ray of sunshineYou’re undeniably warm, you’re cerulean,
You’re perfect in desire.
Won’t you hang around
so the sun, it can shine on me,
And the clouds they can roll away,
And the sky can become a possibility?
If there’s a light in everybody,
Send out your ray of sunshine.

December: always my favourite month of the year. and no, it’s not just because it’s my birthday month. it’s the end of the year, a festive cheer is in the air, everyone’s in a holiday mood, and regardless of whether the year was a good or bad one, a new year is approaching and we know we can always make things better.
so here’s to a happy 11-days-left-in-2009!
whee!
