haha.

mike he. er.. the way he speaks japanese reminds me of how jaychou speaks chinese. hahahaha. 'ohhh. sugoi. subarashi!!'

got back my ctw OD grades. 72. phew. so so. so it boils down to the paper tmr.

imparo is eating my life. omg. i took a whole 2 hrs to finish 2 questions. mle was okay. i couldnt i was totally lost but i really cant gauge whether i did what i expected myself to do. at least i finished the paper, which is something im quite happy abt. because the time for math is either too short or im seriously under-practised or maybe just plain stupid. so im not hoping much for math. econs.. i jus hope the last 2 yrs were not wasted la. haha.

hais. so it's almost the end already. hafta start on planning for the camp in dec. and then maybe start finding a kid who wants tuition from me. anyone? seriously i can teach like the abe hiroshi in dragon zakura. haha.

finished farewell my concubine. woah. i tot it was quite good. and somemore it was filmed in 1993 which is like 14yrs ago. to blog abt this after exams.


heyaa heyaaaaaa~


haha. take this with 2 pinches of salt.

caps from 6 and 7.

ep6.

yukawa's 'hehehe' is strangely contagious.




relativity. hahaha. and in ep6 he draws on the car window shield.


they were stuck in a ship and cant use their phone cos they were surrounded by metal. yukawa came out with a solution to throw the phone out while it is still sending the msg.







ep7.

ER fluid. will change from liquid to solid by applying strong current to it.


wow. he can run.




marker and glass panel.





ep7 is interesting as that they give out so many clues that it's very easy to guess who's the killer and motives. but the difficult part is how to prove the people were the killers because they destroyed all the evidence.

it's kind of sad to say that HERO is one of the better movies i've watched this year. haha. because strictly speaking it's not even a movie. they got the cast together from hero. the story is from hero. and the filming style is also not like a movie. it's er a gimmick by the fuji television to earn more money and to perhaps introduce takako matsu (松たか子) or abe hiroshi (阿部寛) to a wider group of audience. hahahahhaa.

but but. HERO is seriously good. if it was a SP i think the ratings would be quite good too. first, the cast is already good enough. takuya kimura. aiyah. no need to say. takako matsu, abe hiroshi, norito yashima, nene otsuka, takuzo kadono, masanobu katsumura, fumiyo kohinata and kiyoshi kodama (even though his role is quite small). hahaha. the whole office leh. omg. i love all of them. hahaha.

and they got back tanaka yoji. the bartender of the pub that kuryu always goes to eat. haha. and to add on the movie there's tamori (the music station guy) to act as a corrupted politician. and Matsumoto Kōshirō IX to act as the big lawyer gamo. and coincidentally (or maybe not), he's takako matsu's father in real life.

ohhh. and there's Lee Byung-Hun. hahahaaha. all in!! hahahahaha. i like how takako matsu keep calling him 'ikemen kenji' which means handsome prosecutor. hahahaha.

so the story revolves around 3 cases which are interlinked. the corrupted politician has a security guard as an alibi to prove that he wasnt at a restaurant where he was supposedly receiving some money. and on the other hand the security guard has the politician as an alibi to prove that he wasnt at some place where he supposedly committed manslaughter. and the other one is an arson.

the pace of the movie is good. it's good in the sense as how a jap drama is usually good at. like how the review on i-weekly puts it. it is a lot like a japanese drama. and if u like japanese dramas, u will enjoy the movie. if not, u may hate the pace and the jokes and everything in the movie.

it's quite simply a takuya kimura movie. if u have liked good luck!!, pride, hero, i think u will like this too.


and 九代目松本幸四郎 does sound like a cool name. haha. and i jus realised that his son is Ichikawa Somegorō VII. if u have watched pride, one of takuya kimura's friend. the one that keeps changing his girlfriends.

Steps is totally eating up my life. maybe becos after the whole econs paper thing i already dont feel like mugging anymore. but steps. woah. jasmine u must watch this show. haha. i think u will like it.

and, like my dad, ive started to catch the 10pm show everyday. The Conqueror's Story(楚漢驕雄). it's the story of xiang yu and liu bang and how they try to conquer the world. adam cheng is great as liu bang, a hooligan who ultimately became a king. and kong wah acted as xiang yu, who also hopes to conquer china and to stop suffering in the people. they started out as very good friends but not very sure abt why they became enemies in the end. and surprisingly, someone posted it in crunchyroll. hahahahah.

and the greatest pull of the show, for me la, was that the show [maybe becos it's a low budget one (it was filmed in the same year as war and beauty and was aired straight after that)] they got a lot of the people who normally acted as ka-la-fei/fathers/uncles/grandfathers to participate in the drama as quite important roles. like wayne lai's han xin and Ram Tseung's zhang liang. (yup, the same guy in the 你有張良計 我有過墻梯. i think liza wang had this line in wars of in-laws.)

and surprisingly 霸王別姬 is about the story of xiang yu, yu ji and liu bang. woah. because i've wanted to watch farewell my concubine ever since watching 'the king and the clown' (the movie that shot lee junki to fame) because quite some people were comparing these 2 on imdb. and i dunno how to explain this. but it's funny how i am suddenly bombarded by the same thing all together at the same time. like farewell my concubine. they were comparing it with 'the king and the clown', then yesterday's 'guessx3' was talking guys dressing up as girls and they pointed out leslie cheung and his farewell my concubine. and this morning while i was eating branch there was a postcard right on the table with the words 霸王別姬. and after asking my dad on what's 霸王別姬 abt, he told me that it's just the story abt xiang yu and yu ji. woah.

so apparently farewell my concubine's not really abt xiang yu and his yu ji but more abt this group of opera people but this film draws a lot from the story of 霸王別姬 which is a peking opera play. cool. okay. after the exams. and hero and 投名狀 are waiting for me. and on the first beat too. and brink of law.


beyond's 海阔天空. live in 2003.


張國榮/陳百強 - Monica/粉紅色的一生 (粉紅色的一生's the cantonese cover of La Vie en Rose. which is surprisingly the song which i liked a lot from and i hate you so. haha. and i was quite surprised after i realised that one of the songs in the show was sang by dick lee - 'the lady is a tramp'. cos all along i tot it was a woman who sang that song. haha. so apparently he also wrote the song for that movie. woah.)

(updated: haha. omg. the background music is 粉紅色的一生.)

from this year tvb anniversary awards ceremony and gala.


this is worse than last year's phantom of the opera. hahaha.


this is definitely worse than last yr's wax museum.

eason chan 瑪利奧派對
心在香港 衛蘭 劉家昌

the idea of putting Wayne Lai and Steven Ma together is damn good. hahahaha. they are really funny. their chemistry is damn good. hahaha.




wayne lai. haha. u noe now the 10pm show abt the xiang yu and liu bang. wah biang. he's that han xin with the weird temper. but still he's a good actor. he's like benz hui.


steven ma. haha. like how jasmine says. he gets very likeable when u start to watch his shows.

econs paper is over!! yaayayayayyay. it turned out to be better than i tot it would be, considering i pia-ed the whole of macro part yesterday. phew. it's really 現mug現賣. ahh. i had 4 lectures webcaats yesterday which meant 8hrs of webcasts. haha. in end have to watch at 1.6 and finished in 6hrs. haha. but it was total craziness.

偷下先, have to start on math later.

u noe money and banking is the funniest econs topic ever. last time when we were unsure of the demand of money, i still remember the lecturer saying 'why is there a demand of money. wouldnt everyone want as much money as possible?'haha. okay la.i found it very funny then.

and then now. the lecturer now is even better.she was talking abt the benefits of holding cash. 'if u want to buy char kway tiao, u cant possibly go tell the auntie that u have a house worth 1 million dollar and earning an interest rate of $2000. u give me the char kway tiao and i will give u the money after my tenant pay me back.'

hahahahahahaha.

and the best line came from the last lecture. 'we will briefly look at the balance of payment. we wont learn how to calculate it here.this is an economics module, not an accounting one. if u have wanted to do it, u would be in ntu.'

hahahahahaha.

okay. maybe i think it's very funny. hais. 14more hrs. i need to faster pia.

hahahaha. masha in canto.

hais. one and a half more day to the first paper. and damn it. i dunno how to go into the exam rm in this state. and mle is getting so boring that i fall asleep after every chapter. math is not that bad, i fall asleep after every 2 chapters esp the multiple, line, surface integral part.


"You flying man. WHOOOOOSH!"
"Would you keep it down?"
"....whoosh...."


"Ruunnnnnnn. it's gozilla!!" hahahahahaha.


OP of yukan club. wow. 'faith' must have been a difficult to pronounce. hahahaha.


nxt ep of yukan club. it's 賀小美!! mike he.


恶作剧2吻. hahaha.

omg. it's so gd. and there's 東方之珠 which is damn good too. we need some good patriotic song other than 5 stars arising.


pa-ci-fi-ku!!

need to study. will blog later.

haha.

hahahaha. esp the part where bowie lam wish to act in a show where he doesnt need to speak, so that he dun need to memorise lines and dont need to put mike. hahahaha.

yatta!! yatta!! yatta!! i dont mean to copy from masi oka. but yayayayayayayay. the pv for kiss shite is outttttttttt.



masha masha masha!!

the whole tvb anniversary thing is still in my head. haha. check out some of the stuff that are on youtube.



this came from the tvb singer anniversary a few days ago. it is part of the series to celebrate their anniversary. this is one, the awards ceremony is one then the gala tmr night is another one. haha. most of them are like eeg singers. er. but raymond lam is a singer?

fala chen. hmm. okay. i expected her to win something.and dai kai. hahaha. finally!!


some random caps here and there.er. sonjia. and there's harlem!! haha.because he's the host for 味分高下. lee sze kei's daughter came too. and sammul is damn cham. he went up because he was the OS (voice-over) for 十年 which won best documentary.


wow.all the guys wore black. hahaha. this was before they gave out the best actor award. dodo cheng went down to ka-jiao them.


ahMO.wooooo. i only have 1 cap of him because my internet went down when he won the best actor. ahhhhh. i only capped once when he won my favourite actor. hiya.
(update: check out his blog http://blog.tvb.com/MosesChan/)


lydia sum went down too.(:

so.. the awards was quite predictable and it's not as nice as star awards leh. haha. maybe becos the studio is too small. oh. and kate tsui won something!! haha. she's good wah. but but.lai lok yi didnt win most improved. urgh. lai lok yi shd win la.

and this won best promo:

u noe recently there's this damn chirpy bird which moved to our area. u noe those kind that chirps some time around 6am kind. those that will remind that school is gonna start soon. but. the new bird chirps at funny times, like 5pm and 11pm. i think it's having jet lag or something like that.

reading wk already started, given that the first paper starts the coming saturday, and i think i really hafta settle down to do something. like maybe look through the different between cast steel and i dunno what steel. because from the way my tutor is saying, it's supposed to be very fundamental. urgh.

billybong had this presentation on ME. haha. i think it's common among the ME people to say that going into aerospace is not a wise choice cos spore is really seriously not developed in that area. and the biggest part of our gdp? chem engin. but u hafta work in the jurong island for ur life. and based on the mle lessons we are having with the year3 chemE people, i think it is really a stressful course. everyone there either seem to look too old or that they seem to have started balding. i need to save my hair.

hahahaha. i know this is damn weird. but woah. it's fredleung!! haha. anw, this is the ngong ping skyrail which is the one that will bring you up lantau island and of course to the giant Buddha there. it looks a lot like the ocean park one though.

and check out the cool green tee. haha. seriously i saw some ugrad in school wear it before.

there was a time when 環朱格格 was the biggest thing ever..



and alecsu was the hottest guy in town.

haha.

voo. caps from galileo ep4 and ep5. haha. ep4 has shingo and it was based on cavitation in water due to ultrasound. and ep 5.. haha. i dun think there's even proper physics in the crime. it's just logic wah. haha.












and nxt wk's guest is..... maki horikita!!

stop procrastinating ceeshoo. 2 more weeks and u can watch all the 美女與野獸 u wan.

just got a called from the nus regarding my transfer from econs to business. and quoting her words "chances are not very good". hais.


some sidetrack.u noe this guy has an iq of 180? haha. that's damn crazy.

pVthe#@%&^nRT. ahhhh. this thing is driving me crazy. OD tmr. ahhh. dreading it. once this whole exam thing is over im so gonna go talk cock sing song and play mahjong.

aza.
fighting.
fighto.
gambarimasu.
kar yaou.
bei sum gei.
roll yaw pitch.

it's so gonna be over soon. yesh. a little stress a little strain, but fret not cos i have not reached my yielding strength, i'll be back to normal after 3dec.

maybe reinforce myself with some fiber.

hurhur.




fukuyamamasaharu. kimuratakuya.

it was fred's last lecture yesterday. ahhh. me and jingxian is so gonna miss him. without his 'pond'(point), 'daa-gram'(diagram) and 'set-it-up'(for double intergrals), life is so gonna be boring. really hope MA1506 is by fred too. so after his lecture yesterday everyone clapped really hard for fred, although half the LT werent listening to him already in the last half of the lecture. haha. but yesterday was the first time fred could crack so much jokes in 1hr.

first the one abt doing surface integral. he was telling us for eqns that have z=f(x,y) jus let x=u, y-v and z=r(u,v) because then we dont have to trouble ourselves but thinking what to sub. 'the intergration may be a little difficult but it will not be too difficult' hahahaha. on the reason why we shd do it this way. and halfway through lecture when this guy's handphone rang with a loud ringtone like some chinese opera and he stunned for a moment before saying 'i guess we shd come back here. hur.hur.' okay la. fred is one interesting elderly.

though it's two wks to reading wk and 3wks to exams, the whole yearone engin people dont seem to realise it. and those with ctw are still worried abt oral defence (like us. ahhhh. this is worse than pw.) and the rest seem to be busy with some thing or another instead of worrying abt exams. was asking wei lei that day on how's ddp and whether i shd change my second degree to business, he said was saying 'aiyah. those business people never come engin before of course they think business is tough la. seriously business is damn easy as compared to engin.' hahahaha.

oh. and on ntu. hais. in the end they directed the letter i sent to the mae people to the office people. and the answer i got was so lacking in sincerity. summarised: no u cant transfer now. please wait till nxt yr. no credit transfer for u. though there may be exemption for u. apply nxt yr and we'll tell u wat u are exempted. TG is still available for u (although they didnt state explicitly whether i can get it for my fifth yr). so reading from mae's website i realise u can try and complete ur degree in 3.5yrs. if so heng heng i can get exempted for 6 modules and above, maybe with some rushing i can finish in 4yrs like the others and not worry abt the money. hais. u better gimme a reasonable exemption la. physics math lab computing and material science shd give exemption la. if can effective communication too. all i lack now is discovery course 1&2 and orientation camps la. the rest is the same loh. somemore i need to study more. statics and mechaincs of material and nxt sem the introduction module to EE which is not needed in ntu. exempt me u west people.

woo. the tvb calendar 2008 is out. it's ahhhh.. quite disappointing. it feels a little bit like this yr's, but not as nice. hais. but the cover is damn nice. just the cover.

caps from galileo episode 3.


this wk's guests. okay la. guests whom i recognise. haha.


as said last time. resonance is this wk's theme.



last ep was squash. and this ep's climbing.



hahahaha. i dun think they make sense. other than the F=ma.



nxt wk's guest is shingo!! woooo.





haha. anw, here he was drawing a sine curve with his finger when he tripped and his sine curve became that.

some damn old stuff. some entertainment before school.

hahaha. see who'sthe first to see this msg.hiyaaaaaaa~
