i have to admit. other than 藍眼睛 i cannot stop listening to this song. haha. so addictive. the line that stuck to me most is actually "精疲力尽有没有哪里可以停泊"(2:22). no not the lyrics but the melody. it's so strange yet addictive. haha. was listening to the interview with cynthia koh, elvin ng and jerry yeo (yay!!) and this song was playing in the background. while they were talking u cant really hear the melody but this line stood out.
but the plot of the Ultimatum.. hai. when is the cat fight going to start? haha. u know everyday i am only looking forward to the tph subplot part and if there's none, the pale face subplot. the main plot line seems to be stalled somewhere and not moving forward. okay felicia chin, faster get raped. or else pale face is still going to only appear in the bakery and rende at home eating dinner in suit.
or that we suddenly realise ah de is not zhang feng but is actually yan fei or something. i am sick of the ahbeng-ish linanxing.
which reminds me of 縱貫綫's concert. apparently for their world tour, the song list will be slightly geared towards the country they will singing in. hah. i really hope i can finally hear a live rendition of 當愛擦身而過. yeah.
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.
this is really ironic. since my last blog post was about.. but hai. metamorphosis. is good. at least episode 1 made me want to watch episode 2 and episode 2 made me.. and on. im now at episode 4 already. and there are only 20. yes. good.
at least the drama does not fulfil criteria 1, 3, 4, 7 and 10 of my previous blog post. haha. finally a drama that is funny (no they do not throw mops at each other) and the characters are not just 'he is the beng one'.
i like how they named the character. DiLun i presume they are thinking of ti lung. hu xicun(希存) as in hope still exist because he heads dragontooth. ouyang li because he is the rash one. and now i finally understands why xicun is the character with specs. glasses on he is the good forensic pathologist, glasses off leader of terrorist group dragontooth.
best drama in 2007. quoting the producer who went up to get the award '正義是存在的'. (urgh. stupid nonya.)
正義!! speak mandarin campagin hor. really. is not working. our friend from taiwan/hongkong has 懒音. we have ignore all 'g's and 'h's 音.
1. they shoot in studio. the problem lies with the rigid looking hdb flats with glaring pink/orange walls and ugly plastic flowers as decorations. and the ever so well lit living room.
2. the 1000 subplots they have despite the not so clear main plot.
3. the characters are as 2D as paper. she is the bitchy one. he is the kiasu one. period.
4. they wear stuff we will never ever wear in real life. ugly flowerly top and faded jeans berms which are most likely passed down from the previous century.
5. the actors speak like they are reciting a poem. esp when they are agitated.
6. there are only 2 type of people. those who live in semi-d and those in 1-room flat.
7. it is never funny. and their idea of humor includes throwing a mop at another person.
8. the theme song is by jeff wang, daren tan or chew sin huey. 新加坡沒有人啊？
9. the most common line is '你是不會了解的'.
10. okay. just stop the collaborations.
now i know why they called the 90s as the golden age of tv during the 45th gala. it is.. rather true. anw sebastiantan sang this. yay.
this feels like a Revolving Doors of Vengeance meet Drive of Life meet Gem of Life. or simply a very tvb blockbuster kind of storyline. is this supposed to be an angmoh version of The Ultimatum? haha. but i say say say still will watch. cos i think watching patrick teoh will be quite enjoyable.
time really flies with alex tan. haha. it's like yeah it's the finale!! oh no. it's the finale.. if u have been to my fb, you will realise that i was rooting for win cheong. yes. because he really really convinced me the last episode that he will be a better guy than alex tan. i mean isnt alex tan very ya ya this season, like he thought michelle chia will confirm stay with him? and also when he starts to get jealous. oh my gosh. it's like the perfect man suddenly showing all his flaws. and win cheong had this something that alex didnt. (maybe it's his ever glowing pink in health cheeks) so yah. for a whole 24hrs i was rooting for win cheong. but hai. the last episode. okay la okay la. alex tan you win.
actually before i came home i was still thinking of something which i really want to blog about. people who you have a love-hate relationship with. you know there are some people in life that are so good you hate them? hahaha. like how they are always better than you, like flawless one leh, but you know they are just like you, a normal human being, but yet they can be so much.. better!! i mean i really hate these kind of people. but at the same time i really love them. it's like i dont know how to feel when i see them. hahahaha. but i guess they are very impt in my life, because they are mainly the ones who propel me forward. like how i am still lagging, i can do better because obviously these people are better than me.
and so maybe that's why i sort of felt for win cheong la. like 'i am always the number two' because there is this stupid alex tan in my life. but it's very difficult to not like alex tan. so when he left for US(maybe this is when he becomes chun li's dad. hahahahahahaa), i kind of felt quite sad for win?
but ya. perfect cut 2. didnt disappoint me at all. you know like how sequel tend to be bad? or somehow they seem to be inferior, or a gimmick to suck more out of the first season's fans? at least i felt perfect cut didnt la. i love season one (but i only started watching during the repeat) because they dealt with so many controversial issues and those very hush-hush kind of stuff. that it felt so shiok. it's like finally we are free, we have the freedom of speech in this society. while season two is a totally i love the story kind of drama. it's a very typical japanese kind of drama format. 13 episodes. one story in each story while the main characters grow along the way la. actually this was the reason why i was attracted to japanese drama, and it remain my favourite format of drama till today.
season two of perfect cut dealt a lot with ethics: what is right? what is wrong? alex tan plays the angel here, the doctor with a soul (did you see the magazine cover of him? it has the words 妙手仁心 on it) while win cheong the bad guy la, who chooses to operate on someone if it is challenging or it pays him well. and with each story, we see that people are not what they seem to be at first. even for those chinese ladies who go round cheating ah-pek's money.
but one thing i was quite surprised in the finale was the one on 没有Alex的第___天. oh my gosh. isnt this from my favourite abalone show? it's almost completely the same la. but i guess this is the best way to show how michelle chia felt in that 4-5 months when alex was gone. and the part win cheong was knocked down by the motorcycle? i thought it was a little forceful. and a little cliche. but the rest of the 13 episodes - perfect.
like i say la.it's very hard to find a really good singapore drama. esp after the brain drain a few years ago when quite a few hongkong directors left. yes it is getting better recently. but perfect cut is really one that is like thousand years difficult to meet one. and if u want to watch, i currently have all 26 episodes. can lend la, but must be gentle. if you break i will angry till explode. haha.
oh talking about that. all their 口頭禪s: 犯人 ..到爆炸 依然嬌艷
haha. i just love emily tan leh. she is so funny. and wa. she found clement and sean tee. haha. yay. i was really rooting for her. u know in season one, alex is always the fierce one, and then you will see sky and her feeling scared when he scolds them? haha. super funny.
now i just feel rather down. no more alex tan i guess. unless they decide to go into season three. highly unlikely.
actually watching perfect cut reminds me a really old drama, back in 1999, which i doubt many watched. it's SNAG, or 新好男人 in chinese. starring wong hei and jeff wang. it was shown at those 11pm kind of drama. i really loved it then. but cos i was still in primary 5, and kids cant sleep so late,so my parents had me record with the vhs player and then to watch the next day la. and this show's the kind, even if i have only 5 min to spare the next morning, i also must spend my 5min to watch it. i have the ost now at home, very good ost also.
but apparently when it was shown, it didnt get that much viewership, despite wong hei very famous then. maybe it was shown too late. and at the same time, it's format is very very much similar to perfect cut, people could not accept it. it dealt with mainly on love. with wong hei as a bachelor and how he hopes to get a girlfriend, or at least some love la. very modern. too hip to be accepted then i guess.
i mean now people can accept perfect cut (okay. there are some 食古不化 people out there. will talk about it later on), i think if they choose to show SNAG now, it will get at least more acceptance than then. it is also largely those one episode one story kind of format. with each episode we see the character of the episode explore what is love? what does it mean by love?
and wong hei referred himself to as this volleyball position. but i cant remember the exact words now. urgh.
and hor. talking about people who still cannot accept perfect cut. i saw this short message that someone wrote to iweekly la. complaining why perfect cut 2 is such a big hoo-har when it's a superficial drama about plastic surgery. what the hell. you never watch then talk so much. superficial drama about plastic surgery? siao ah. u want not so superficial one go watch little nonya la. crazy. and then another person's tag i saw on a rather famous mediacorp high ranking guy blog la, something like 'i am not a superficial person, so i dont let my family watch perfect cut blah blah.. this society is full of superficial people..' hai. yet another lost sheep.
i didnt really care about star awards for the past like 8-9 years other than to gossip about who got into top10 and who didnt. i mean singapore dramas? i gave up after primary5. but last year, i dont know whether age got the better of me or spore dramas are really improving, i have to admit out of the 6 nominated, i watched 4, finishing 3 out of the 4.
and of course i am rooting for the 3. but aiyah. mediacorp. everyone knows which drama is going to win la. boring. boring. woo. boring. give out pork. confirm those i like one wont win. one got too many non-自己人, one seemed like a filler, the shomingeki one is like forgotten by everyone else?
and talking about the one with too many non-自己人, did anyone watch the last last episode about fate and supersition? haha. i saw our friendly bank teller la. hahahahahahaa. asking for a larger nose, wider brows and a mole. har. now i know why she sounds so familar. her lo mai gai and xiao long bao. unforgettable.
i want a re-re-run of part 1. this drama is so.. sporean-ish!! all the inside jokes, sacrasim, so intelligently spore. (which we seldom see in our dramas..) maybe that's why they are not selling it out of spore. unlike you know the one which they sold to tvb..
from newpaper:
Even The Little Nyonya can't compare to top TVB dramas MY love affair with TVB dramas began with the magnificent Man In The Net - a serial about filial piety, righteousness, love between family members, love between friends and love between man and woman. By Maureen Koh 02 February 2009
MY love affair with TVB dramas began with the magnificent Man In The Net - a serial about filial piety, righteousness, love between family members, love between friends and love between man and woman.
There's a good chance that people reading this would have watched it or recognise the title. This despite it being a 1980 production.
And many will be able to name the lead actor and actress who became household names not only in their native Hong Kong, but also in Singapore and other parts of the world.
Yes, they are Chow Yun Fat and Carol 'Do Do' Cheng.
And that is how the magic of TVB dramas work: Weaving the skills of the scriptwriters with fine acting from an often stellar ensemble.
It's a skill that MediaCorp has apparently yet to master.
Yes, not even with The Little Nyonya, even though one in four Singaporeans followed it, making it the highest-rated drama in 15 years.
To be fair, not all TVB dramas are compelling and I'm certain there have been some flops with porous plots.
So what is it then that makes the dramas more compelling than our local fare?
Top on the success list has to be superior content - and here is where the Hong Kong team excels.
TVB dramas are usually - if not always - made for family watching. Like last year's mega-blockbuster, Moonlight Resonance.
Viewers - such as myself - will swear in indignation at the injustice suffered by the protagonist, and laugh till our sides ache at the hijinks by the unwitting joker.
Or cry in anguish at lovers torn apart by misunderstandings, jealous rivals or just plain circumstances.
Goosebumps
If you ask me, its formula did not differ much from Man In The Net. Yet, nearly 30 years down the road, it still strikes a chord.
Which is something that I can't say for The Little Nyonya, though I do like new Ah-Jie Jeanette Aw.
I found myself snorting at some of the impossible scenes. Remember the famous - or is it infamous - parting scene between Chen Xi and Yue Niang at the railway track?
Well, some of the lines raised more goosebumps than tears.
Scorpio East's chief operating officer, Mr Lim Teck, said: 'TVB is very good at reinventing their dramas - be it through the themes or even, the artistes.'
Again, the Hong Kong team shines here. Veterans and established stars are given roles which suit them and match those of the young and more popular ones.
And when veterans return to the screen after even a decade, they still look wonderful.
Think Michael Miu and his wife, Jamie Chik, Ray Lui and Yueh Hua, even Gallen Lo.
Another of TVB's strengths is its theme-dramas. The extensive genre ranges from cops to cooking. Last year's serials included a tombstone-making trade and the current one is on the salt business.
Sure-win formula
Last year's top three dramas - Moonlight Resonance, Forensic Heroes 2 and D.I.E - attest to the sure-win formula.
Such dramas are the reason that despite Scorpio East's best efforts, viewers still resort to pirated DVDs because they just can't wait to catch the next episode.
It makes me wonder whether there will come a day when MediaCorp serials can command the same fervour?
even our good friends on tudou cannot tahan this show.
finally. a weekend. for me to really do all the nitty gritty things that u have put aside for weeks. my study plan. oh man. it's like almost 1.5mth since the person email me to send the study plan. hai. i just hope i'm not too late and they are still sending me to tw. i mean circus, i want to meet u all!! haha.
and renewal of my passport. my passport has officially expired. im not so in a rush now, since they rejected my hk trip request. but im still gonna go anw, so yesh, a new passport.
my gst credits. faster sign up also. in case i forget and bye bye 400bucks from government.
my stripping party!! i have not started preparing.
next weekend open house. duty at sc booth. hai hai hai. come visit me if u can. haha. everyone. if u are in school. and of course to kope the goodie bag. anw interested to kajiao some ee prof can jio me too. 'i thought electrical is pull wire and fix light bulb only? why need a bachelor?' hahahahaha.
'mary dreams about cleaning her house. her maria does it.' hi my name is maria. haha.
oh man. this show confirmed my choice to not join a wafer fabrication plant. haha. i mean the whole factory has no colour? the machines are white, their uniforms are white. noooooo. just when they are trying hard to inspire the audience to join engineering, or to get their sons/daughters to join engineering, it's making me regret. haha. okay maybe not. but the chances of me joining a wafer fabrication plant is very low.
but there's still scenes that are worth watching. they filmed in nanyang!! woah!! cos there was this sequence abt ruanmianmian's past. then there was the jc her and her boyfriend in this strangely familiar walkway and pond. i was so shocked la. nanyang? why? because it's near to caldecott hill? but yay!! haha. at first i still couldnt believe it was ny till the credits came out and our familiar school crest appeared. and apparently they filmed in engin too. woah. and oschool.
but the SIA parts are good. har. and our dear elvinng trying to act as sato. hai. maybe the mediacorp is trying out with the daiyangtian formula again. and his fake accent. hahahahaha. okay. i prefer the DYT's one.
and i cant stand how this drama is so hard selling engineering. it's like 'engineers are cool, dance well and are good-looking!!' and the 5min thing with actors speaking about engineering. eg the taypinghui and his 'scientists ask 'why?' while engineers ask 'why not?' and ending cheekily with 'if u like to ask 'why not?', maybe u have the engineering dna in you.'' DNA? hahahahahahahaha.
oh. and i saw sde friend in the show too. haha. sia side. hi sde friend.
i really think the mediacorp people eavesdrops on me every now and then. haha. okay okay. they are filming a new drama that is on engineers!! hahahahaha. i was still complaining a while back about why there isnt a drama on engineers. you know there are dramas on doctors, on firemen, on policemen, on mooncake makers. there isnt one on engineers.
and yes. they are going to make one. after the previous keppel-ice man-cycling one, which i guess has cheated a lot of young girls to go into civil, they are making another one this year. and they are coming to engin to film.
check out iweekly this wk because they devoted to around 3 pages on this new drama. and of course dawnYeoh going to oschool to learn how to dance. you know. engineers are hip la.
new minor this year. pre-requisite gek1542. i feel like doing that but i'm not too good in that area. will borrow the notes from jasmine to see how is it first.
i am one of those who cringe at the idea of a channel8 anniversary gala. why copy tvb? esp when the gossip section of u-weekly talks abt like why are we copying the blue-red-green tv station to do 台慶, im those who will nod without even thinking.
but i guess i was wrong. the anniversary gala turned out to be so much better. the previous time they did one, i tot they tried a little too hard to deliver that nostalgia. like repeatedly playing the clips from 霧鎖南洋. but this time round i think they really put in some effort to see how they can present the past 45 years of tv to everyone.
and our national tv is already 45? that makes us even older than tvb. i didnt know this. our tv is so much like hongkong tv. during the 90s, our directors are from hongkong, our producers are from hongkong, isnt it strange that our dear channel8 is older than tvb?
it's nice to see them presenting the tv artistes in batches. especially when they got the bunch from the 1999 star search together. nick shen, vivian lai, qi yu wu, priscilla chan, jeff wang.. it was the time when star search was really an IN thing and i was sitting right in front of the tv on the finals to see who will win. and they got thomasOng too. hahahaha. yay.
and it's quite surprising to see that actually we have such a big bunch of people in mediacorp. esp after watching the tvb one yesterday. we are also as strong loh. maybe we can try getting the bunch of them here to dance for the opening other than just walking out and looking good. hahahahaha. we lack that celebration feel. maybe zoeTay and fannWong can come out singing some 'i love channel8' song. like the 一於去齊聲恭祝TVB song. and then have our mediacorp ceo come out with ms singapore. hahahaha. nice.
and the youtube video on top is 周璇's 永遠的微笑. i love it ever since watching election. there was this part during the gala when they showed 4 comedians who had past away, they started off with 蔡琴's 被遺忘的時光 and just when i was thinking 'not again..', they changed the background music to an instrumental version of 永遠的微笑. whoever thought of that, nice one.
on the other hand. watched TVB awards yesterday. i esp liked the part where they got the actors to enter in groups from 2 to 4 and to give a one-liner. like raymond lam's 'if i win today, i guess i have a lot of meals to..treat.' hahahahaha. nice. and wayne lai's 'i am 白果王[the one who always do not win]'.
萬千星輝頒獎典禮2008-最佳男配角--黎耀祥
but wayne lai won. 白果王 no more!! this is so overdued. even as 連子蓉 in MR, he is good. he is good in Steps, in Devil's Disciple, in When rules turn loose.. the most deserving award for this year's TVB awards. ha yu deserves his best actor too, but seeing him win is like seeing Martin Scorsese win academy award becase of Departed. yes. ha yu deserves it. but i think it should not be because of moonlight resonance but for when rules turn loose. and next year should be raymond cho's turn. raymond cho. without him, healing hands and forensic heroes would have been much more boring.
Mr.Children／花の匂い（Live ver.） 僕らの音楽
theme song for 「私は貝になりたい」. if 2216 is going to there for another 10 years. this might become one of the films for the course.
every time a new thomas ong show comes out i will want to watch it but always lack the stamina to finish them. Perfect Cut will add one more towards my list of shows-starring-thomas-ong-that-i-want-to-watch-but-i-just-keep-missing-them.
i guess actually there are actually quite a number of people out there watching this drama. cos when i talked about the julianhee irony, there are quite some who understood what i was talking about. kudos to the scriptwriter for being so daring. first the julian hee one liner that made me laugh so hard and number 2 to bring felicia chin and plastic surgery together. zai!!
u hafta admit that this is really a well done drama. and this is like the only drama that me and my sis will watch on tudou when we miss episodes of it.cos it's really good!! hahahaha. the pace is good (unlike the 7pm one..) and when they try to make u laugh, u can really laugh.
and the 'mediacorp mode' of acting in actors have reduced. good use of veterans, good topic. haha. i just like it a lot. first time im bothering more abt the 9pm spore show than the 10pm hongkong show.
and of course the greatest draw comes from sdy. haha. civil engin. haiyo.
will finish this post some time later. till the nxt time when im free.
woah. i didnt know they used Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence theme for this trailer. but anw, there's some sort of arguments on youtube right now abt whether raintree has the rights to use this music as the bg music. haha. the ppl on youtube sure have a lot of stuff to say.
watch them perform live;
anw. i feel like watching leap years. no. i think everybody around me seems to want to watch leap years too. haha. woah. first time everyone's giving so much support to a local film. oh. and august rush's coming out too. or is out? but watch that. i think it shd be not bad.
oh ya. and i think the 9pm show is getting nicer and nicer. at first the trailer was nice. episode 1 was not disappointing. and now it's getting even nicer. how to say ah. it's funny if u just want to get entertained. but at the same time it's sort of like a social commentary. beneath all the stupid stuff the bunch of neighbours are doing, it actually reflects a lot of stuff happening in singapore now. and unlike like maybe hand leg, this drama is much light hearted and in some way it's a little similar to how our sitcoms are filmed but yet it has a strong storyline going on. and the actors are all damn good. actually most of them normally play like small characters in those big mediacorp productions but here when they themselves are the lead, they make the drama even more interesting.
oh. and there's jiang chengxi. yay. haha.
Joe Hisaishi Princess Mononoke Symphonic Suite
Band performed a shorter version of this in one of the nanyang arts fest i think. or is it band concert? but woah. a version with joe hisaishi as conductor. cool.
somehow i hate sundays. i hate how sunday mornings pass so quickly. i hate how channelu likes to show movies that were filmed ages ago and repeated over a zillion times on sunday nights. i hate how monday morning is just a few hrs away.
u noe sunday to me is white colour. cold hard white. and the impending doom of the arriving monday morning. i love fridays. all of them. and fridays to me are green. bright green that reminds me of honeydew and green apples. ahhhh. i hate sundays.
ever since i knew who i was i hated sundays. the tv shows on sundays are always the suckiest. and how big tv events are always held on sundays; they always leave me a bitter feeling. and how i always have a hard time sleeping on the sunday before a major exam, an interview or maybe a new job.
anw, it was the president star charity just now. ahh. maybe it's kinda bad to say this, but i was cringing throughout the high school musical part with long hair paul2hill and a taufik troy singing love duet with olinda. hahahahaha. esp the bball part where it was quite obvious they should have spent more time with that orange ball.
dick lee's part was.. oooookay. but becos i prefer the idol paradise thing from spore idol season1, fried rice paradise sounds funny. cao fan baby~
the diya jonathan part was surprisingly good. though diya looks funny in that gown, and trying her best to look weak and feeble; though she obviously look very well fed and full of love. their singing were not bad. did they sing live?
okay lah. two more wk to deadline for the PP first draft (i tot i dun have to touch gp or pw ever ever again. hais hais.) and mid terms starts on tuesday. wish me luck.
the deadline for the eg1413 critique is jus 3 days away and i still haven written down a single word for it. there's not a single motivation to that piece of work other than that the deadline is really coming too near. argh. jus when i tot GP would be the end to the years of torture by the english language, english homework really haunts me.
Mass Immigration: Its Effect on Our Culture, the article's interesting and extremely biased but still i cant find sources to counterargue his points. bah.
had the very first quiz of our year, a statics one, which is like newton mechanics to the extreme. the paper's 1hr with 2 questions, which was seemingly easy but strangely difficult to solve. and now i start seeing building structures i used to ignore totally. like the celling for the yew tee food court and also for the yew tee train station both use simple truss structures.
3 impt things to do. my test, my critique and my pleading letter. one down two to go. after handing in the critique on wed, im gonna start drafting the letter to the dean on the other side to let me in to their sch. and of course, caas intern registering is gonna start soon.
have u been watching the joanne peh, zheng ge ping 9pm drama? hahahahaha. it's so much better than how i've expected it to be. since the story seem corny and that they tried to use too many unknown ka-la-feis for the supporting roles. the drug trafficking, gangsters and undergrad. very random but yet very funny. jus found out that kang chengxi's in ntu's engin. shit. we only have red bean.
u noe like how people have pms once a mth, i have obsessive compulsive disorder every once a mth when the homework gets really out of order. and today is one of those days. ahhhh. can someone help me finish my homework.
like physics assignment which took me a whole 3hrs. hahahaha. can die lah. only 7 questions. and surprisingly (or maybe not so surprisingly), out of the seven, i finished the one on aeroplane the fastest. is that a hint?
have u ever thought how aeroplane turn? as in u noe they cant jus shift themselves to oneside (and if they do, they need to exert the force somewhere.). anyway,planes turn by tilting themselves a little (most of the time 2odegrees cos more than that the passengers will feel uncomfortable), so that there will be two component of forces, one to lift the plane and the other to provide centripetal force so that it will travel in the arc of a circle to turn lah. cool eh.
it has already past 12 so it's now officially monday. and i sort of heck already. cannot finish then dun care lah.
oh yah.on the 7points for thomas ong. hahahaha. actually i've been wanting to blog about this for quite long but very lazy. one day, out of a surprise, i got a call from mediacorp asking if i wanna participate in their voting for star awards. u noe they always say star awards 50% by calling and the 50% by viewer polls. it was the viewer poll part. and of course i said yes lah.
they asked us to rank the different artistes from 1-7. 1: i dunno him/her 2: i dislike him/her and does not watch his/her show 3:i dislike but will still watch his/her show 4: neutral 5: i used to like but got sick of him/her now 6: i like 7:i like and will definitely watch his/her shows.
hahahaha. and i think i gave quite little 7s. i only gave to adrian pang, fann wong and thomas ong i think. hahahahaha. i dunno why abt the adrian pang and the fann wong part but thomas ong leh. wah.must give him seven.
and so right after that gangster daughter and father show, the new police-forensic show is gonna star thomas ong. maybe i'll try watching for an ep or two. last time his that wedding show was quite nice.
and the last breakthrough is so surprisingly nice. maybe jus a little too much operation scenes. it makes me wanna puke. hahahaha.
fathers and sons.
youtube is bringing all of them down, tudou is too slow.heng still got gofish and veoh.
i jus realised that im in real deep shit in terms of homework.
i have a critique that i have not even started. an online statics assignment. a physics assignment due tmr. three wks worth of math assignment that i didnt do. two MLE assignments. econs asignment also due tmr and 2wks worth of webcast lecutre becos i ponned two wks of econs consecutively.
super chui now.
and i still need to rmb go collect my ezlink on monday. to go activate my debit card and to collect stuff. and that i have to write an email asking abt the possbility of transfer.
damn.
anw, there's this new spore(omg!!) police drama with a whole series of cool teasers. and. which somehow looks like those from dicey business. check it out.
Metamorphosis(the spore show) teasers:
omg. i jus realised there's thomas ong!! ahhhhh!! im gonna watch it!! hahahahaha. somemore i gave him 7points leh(more on that another day.)
liza wong: my first liza wong drama. although she's like the ah jie of tvb, this is my first liza wong drama. heard quite a lot of stuff btw myolie wu and her, like how myolie is the only newbie that dare to talk back to her or something like that. um. yah. but i like zhuang-ma (or sun-zhuang in the law firm). she has her flaws (stubborn, talks more than she listens) but i like her. becos she seems geniuely real. and her funny conversations with her husband.
ha yu: i like him, surprisingly. although he now only appears in drama as those ka-la-fei kind of roles (father, uncle, criminal..), his roles is quite big in this drama. he seems to laugh a lot, and i think it's quite tiring to laugh like him all day. but he always seem to be the one who solves all the problems.
patricia liu: okay. i hate natelie. i really hate natelie. first time i can hate a baddie so much. becos raymond is so nice. and keith is fat, ugly and useless. and zhuang-ma did so much for her. why does she have such bad taste? maybe she will change for the better, but till now, she's really irritating. and almost all the youtube comments are against her. hahahaha. yeah!!
at first i kinda like her. when she was okay with the family and raymond and didnt have such bad taste. she kinda reminds me of klim. or maybe the subjective view of us towards klim.
is she the prositute in 'war and beauty'? cos i think she acted in it. but i couldnt differentiate bao chan and the prostitute who would chat with bowie lam every time he is troubled over something (um. like gigi lai. or charm sheh. irritating women. hahaha.)
wayne lai: he's raymond. and cool. i never knew he could act so well. everybody loves raymond lah, who doesnt?
macro ngai: oh no. wat happened to him? even since he got married and tgt with the end of the the armed reaction series, his time has also come to an end too. he became so much fatter and darker and fatter and darker and fatter and fatter and fatter. hahaha. his character in to catch the uncatchable was already quite irritating. keith is worse. yucks.
sammul chan: dick ching. he's supposed to be quite likeable here. but he talks too much. and he talks like a girl here. hahahaha. like how he was in triumph in the skies lah('zita~ zita~'). i prefer the 'pak kiu' of the academy.
myolie wu: er. why is she everywhere? hahahaha. quite sick of her and her squeeky voice. but she's okay lah.
jacky wong: jacky-zai!! hahaha. he's dick step-bro. though not as quite as he is in always ready.
a scene from ep11. i tot this was quite funny. hahaha. who baibai this way? hahahaha.
oh. remember to watch 'shi san bian' (er. 13 strokes of cane?) there's san bao!! hahaha. my fav bao3 in wo jia si ge bao. he's li nanxing's son here (again. like how this boy always seem to act as elvin ng's son, bro etc).
