Unrelated stuff.



ahhhh. finally. finally i feel kind of accomplished. at least i finished something. so i just feel like rambling. ahhhhh. it's mostly crap la, so dont read if u are not free.

anw, the mv above is directed by boo (long time no see boo!! haha. not that any of us knows him. we just keep mentioning his name like we know him. haha.) it's watch at your own risk (yang, it's from electrico!! haha.) 見鬼了。 haha.

okay. so it's going to be no studios stuff from monday to wed and i am now preparing myself mentally for precamp. and i need to get a swimming costume too, the plastic loud hailers thing and whistles.

and yesh. i am back. haha. after hiding in my shell for so long, mainly mugging and for the last 2weeks doing i dont know what. i realise packrat is still blogging, skw is the covering chinese subject head, sde friend is still blogging (i want to see his head soon. hai. yesterday's episode didnt show.) and that he has him on his blogroll (new proof) and yes we are going into our third year.

i missed yesterday's episode of 'Princess and Prince' ahhhh. i really like their clothes leh, and also maybe some ideas to buy for my xiao yang zhuang (hahahaha). when i was young i will be the first to switch channels when this kind of shows come on (or if they were showing some health shows, i have phobia) but okay la, this kind of show quite entertaining. if u know me long u shd have heard me saying the 'one day can only wash hair once', ya is fann wong teach one. haha.

wanted to blog about this movie i watched during the exam period, After Life by Koreeda Hirokazu, but was too lazy to do so. haha. anw the story goes after each person die they will go to this place where they are given 3days, with the help of social workers, to choose one single memory. after that they will film that single memory and after they watch it, they will then move on.



i watched the first 60min at one go and then the rest of it at another session. loved the first 60min which was about how each person who went there, acknowledged that they were dead and then try to find their single memory they want to keep. this girl she was made to choose a memory la, and she chose her trip to disneyland (she's around 17). and then one social worker told her that there were 30 other people who came, mostly kids and young girls, who chose disneyland and then she decided to choose a more special memory. i think different people have different interpretations of this, but to me, the idea that hit me was that 'yes, a memory might be unique to you. but u will realise that there are so many other people who experienced it, and not so unique after all.' which was sth that came to me when i was fed up of seeing short films about army. and strangely this story is exactly the same as first light. hmmm.



but the rain.. we still have to see.

it's the third episode into The Ultimatum, but im still not getting what's the story abt. i will watch halfway and when someone says 'dont pester songnian!' and i will go 'eh. who is songnian?' haha. so many characters. though the drama's quite pleasant on the eye, no pink colour hdb flats walls obviously propped up in studios, the ye's mansion looks kind of fake, and it looks so much like the one in the mooncake show. but ah, i will just ignore it.

there are 2 surprises for me though, one from keke as the young fann wong. i wasnt really watching ep2 and then halfway through my dad went 'hey. your 'coco' on tv!!' although her role is more similar to the one in metamorphosis as the young ruien, which is the one who gets abused la. hai. but ya keke!! haha. and she's on the museum show too, with mark lee and vivian lai.

another is the insert song 不死心還在, the power station only version. it's nice to have power station sing theme/insert songs for local dramas. it was great back then with the 出路 还隐隐作痛 and 那就這樣吧. i liked this song when i first heard the 信樂團 and power station version. it has this beyond feeling to it and i was sort of standing on 信樂團's side after ah shin left them to go solo.

and like metamorphosis, ultimatum has expensive calefares. sde friend as the dead son, my favourite local bosco wong as the abusive husband who appears no more than 10sec and also Zhang Wen Xiang as some random kidnapper. but my favourite is still metamorphosis' hong guo rui who appeared less than 5sec and dead without uttering a single line. hahahaa. good.

我就是窩囊。

本剧故事纯属虚构,如有雷同,实属巧合

There was a general. The general was the son of the previous brave general and thus many have believed that the general will do well too. So after the general grew up, he took over his father and had to looked over a large army.

one day there was news that the army from the neighbouring country wanted to attack them. the general panicked as he had not gone into a war before, he got all his wise people to discuss what to do. late at night when all his wise men were ready to go to bed, the general sent an order for all to gather to discuss strategy. the wise men followed the order, once, twice and after many times, they were tired by all the sudden orders for meeting.

the general was unsure as to how to attack the neighbouring country and often listened to the old generals. he did not think through the ideas that were offered to him but took all that came as he felt that since his father had believed in them, their ideas should never go wrong. the general was often clueless as to what to do, and had no strong take towards any strategy. the general did not come out with any strategy, he just took them as he heard of them.

to prepare for the war. the general often held training sessions with the army. they were made to move things, to run away and everyone was busy. but no one know why they were so busy as often they did not see the results of their hard work. they had no aim and could not provide the better solution as to what they were doing.

but the general would get anxious quickly. whenever he got anxious, he would sent an order to his army to check the current situation. once he wanted the army to make a new batch of arrows. on the first night the general asked on the situation, the army replied that they are searching the bamboo. while searching for bamboo the next day, the general asked again. soon the asking got more and more frequent and the army spent more time answering the general then working. the productivity was low.

however as new problem came up, the general became more involved in the new problem and the making of arrow slowed down as the soldiers were all worn out from the rush at first and also to answer the general. in the end they could only finish making the arrows after the initial stated date.

however, the general, who is not a fan of GTD, got anxious easily. however the general could not find an effective way to vent his anxiousness. often he will sit in his office and ask 'why' and not doing much.

井底之see。



my eyes were swollen from this morning. for no reason. i slept quite early last night, but i couldnt fully open my eyes since morning. hai. im back to sleeping late again, maybe hoping it will go away this way. and also because i usually cant sleep after watching a movie.

finally dug out one of those i-have-them-but-am-too-lazy-to-watch-them kind of film and watched it la. love it. woo. shiok.

and the ad on top. i have watched it a year ago, but watching it now does give a second layer to it.

三年五年以后,甚至更久更久以后,我们会变成什么样的大人呢?


and i've been watching a lot of taiwanese stuff recently. this is for what? this is preparation. ahh.

Childish See.

oh no. i realised my script (or specifically the theme) is very childish. haha. how. but i set out to write a coming-of-age short film. but then the more i write my treatment, the more i am goosebump-ing with the childishness. like a bad mayday song. haha. it lacks the world view. haha. ahhhh. director of exit no.6, please teach me how to write a coming-of-age film. haha. okay. i just hope tj wont laugh (snigger)at my treatment later on.

no worry. we can always entertain ourselves with Joleen's gastric flu music video.

痞子英雄主題曲


COLOR band. wow. 2 man rock band. hmm. they look more like yuzu(think folk duo) to me. but im quite disturbed by the gun sounds. live performance sounds better if everything was live right. but the CD version of this song is really good. with or without mark chao. haha. sorry hero wu.

another 3 months.

was penning my break resolutions in my head. reading GTD is making me determined to just straighten my life out.

1. do the urgent things like finish my study plan (almost 5 months overdue) and my treatment.
2. and if my treatment is successfully done, then i'll have to write the script.
3. clear up my table, my room, the toilet, the living room and if i have some more time, the kitchen too.
4. start a proper processing system as suggested in GTD.

i realised i just had the least oriented 6months of my whole life. im eating at weird times, have 6-month break between chances i get to exercise, my room is in a mess, my head is in a mess and i dont know what i am doing in studios.

so i really want a week to straighten everything out, but till now i have not found that full one week and studios stuff is getting heavier, together with sports camp stuff and the internship which i want to apply to.


okay. back to what im wasting so much time on now. black and white [痞子英雄]. i know of this from eunice and trust i was as reluctant as you to watch the drama when i heard of the title. it is a drama with such high production value. i was really hooked while watching it yesterday but i didnt know how to tell others abt this drama. once i say "taiwanese drama", half of them wont bother to listen anymore, and "zai zai" will shoo the other half away. ya. watch if u want la. hah.

hai. but now i am just very bored.
