Apparently, all the hot Korean guys prefer to stay off-stage, so to Deya you don't miss out much. Some of the performances were encore from APAC nite too. I was anticipating the girls to dance to Korean pop songs, but nope...that was a disappointment. Korean Nite should've been entirely Korean.
I am going to throw a bunch of pictures in here. Firstly, my small birthday celebration yesterday. It was unplanned because we went to Asian Kitchen only for dinner but since someone wanted to eat cake, I bought one for them all. I haven't celebrated with some other girls of my batch, so I don't mind another round of celebration...hahaha.
Tomorrow night is time to cuci mata with hot Korean guys. Hahaha...part of All-Campus Party 2006, Korean Night will be held tomorrow at MU. I am looking forward to it and hopefully it's gonna be good. My classmate whose also I believe is the head band will be singing tomorrow. I want to wath the drum show too, and hopefully there're some cool dance performances. Just like last weekend APAC nite. It was a total blast! I totally love the modern and hybrid fashion show and the hip hop dance. The light dance was downright cool as well. It is finally proven that Asians are better dancers than Americans. Our Malaysian traditional dance and silat received many whoots and praises, so that's a good sign for the upcoming Midwest. I wish I have pictures to post. Maybe I'll post them up after I get the pictures from the juniors. In addition, I am also looking forward to tomorrow's Bucky State Fair, Battle of the Band on Thursday and East Asian Film Festival next weekend. I'm glad that this year Spring season seems to be far more exciting than the past years that I've been here. So far I am loving 2006 in UW. Rugi to whoever yang tak participate in this year All-Campus Party.
And siapekah sebenarnye Oshio? Known to portray a bad-boy personality but a charmer as well, he has scored 9 celebrity girlfriends in the past 5 years. Here he is, the lead singer of a Japanese punk-rock group, LIV. Ape yang punk-rock, I also dunnolah. Video quality not so good though.
There're more continuation comments over the cancelled bride project(e.g:Tun Mahathir open letter) over at Jeff Ooi and A Kadir Jasin blogs. Links are available at the Links section. To those interested, trylah baca.
Another tiring weekend. Work, soccer and basketball again. Injured my hand yesterday. Though the pain is still there, at least I am able to write now. I guess every weekend is going to be tiring after this. Moreover with finals, graduation and moving out around the corner. But I won't be disheartened because of that since my birthday is just in 2 more days. I am gonna get some lucrative, exciting present from my parents so I am all excited. My own laptop! Ahh... I can't wait!! Who wants to buy my desktop?!
I know he's a year younger than me and I don't like younger boys... but still I like his voice especially when he's singing rock-alike songs. Plus, who can resist his bakaness in Gokusen 2? Don't really like him as a boyband member. He should go solo. Good vocal range he has I might say. He reminds me of Oshio. Ah, pardon his bad English. Nihonjin dakarana.
I won't write my opinion on the topic since I obviously have no proper knowledge whatsoever to comment on it. I just thought that is interesting and thought-provoking to read about other people reactions after the cancellation of Johor-Singapore curved bridge. I'm a bit of a pro-Mahathir, so I might be biased towards his comments, but I pity Pak Lah at the same time. Him and his masalah negara. It's tough when the whole country keep an eye on you, isn't it? In the end, who is to be blame? I don't know. I have too much compassion towards Malaysia leaders & citizens to pinpoint anyone. Without them money & them giving me the opportunity, I won't be here studying in the US right now. I also don't like to hate anyone from my own group. So... no comments. I just have one question tho. With the rate we are on, mampukah Malaysia mencapai Wawasan 2020?
The recent weekend was a tiring weekend. Work, soccer practices, work again, karaoke and no study at all (not that I care :p). I even skipped work on Sunday(partially because it was raining hella lebat so there's no way I would walk in the rain) and today because I was too tired and my thighs are hurting like crazy. I nearly stumbled a few times because my leg just suddenly went limb while I was walking to class today. Even getting up from my chair after a long sit requires cringing. I hope this won't continue until my basketball practice this weekend.
Siapa sudah tonton Garasi? Best nggak? I have the OST, not bad...so I am interested to watch the movie. Summer is nearing. Will be shown in cinemas: Da Vinci Code, X-Men 3, MI3, Pirates of the Carribean 2, The Lake House. I'm excited!
Early summer, it seems that I can't go to Bahamas after all. The cost is too high with only two person going for such a short time. Takpelah, I will still be able to enjoy the beauty of Phuket anywayz. Like my mom said, what's the use of going? You can find beautiful beaches even in Malaysia. Instead, I am heading to Boston right after midwest for a 6-day trip before my intensive summer course start. Flight ticket has been bought, but I can't find the right place to stay yet since accomodation in Boston is cho expensive! Haish, should I then waste 8 hours(go & return) in the bus and go down to New York so I can stay for free at Pial's? Hmmm...
Haven't blog about a movie for a while, right? The thing I like most. Perhaps because I watch less movie nowadays and couldn't find any interesting ones. Last weekend, however, I've had the chance to watch Satomi Hakkenden, a remake version specially made to be shown on Japanese TV for the New Year's Day 2006. Interesting also larr. The one-episode special series was split into two parts, each part totalling to approximately 2 hours. But since I love to watch this kinda martial-art/period movie, the 4 hours didn't feel long at all. Teringat waktu when I was a kid I always watch cerita pendekar Melayu or those Chinese period dramas shown every evening at 6pm.
I actually wanted to watch this at first because of my curiosity to watch Manabu Oshio in a period drama. But other than him, this show is filled with other star-studded casts as well such as Takky, Ayase Haruka, Kanno Miho, Nakama Yukie and Watabe Atsuro among others. They deliver an excellent performance, so I am well-entertained during my 4 hours watching it.
Sebab malas nak tulis synopsis, so I quote from Jdorama.com: "A story about 8 chosen warriors set with a destiny to save the country of satomi from impending doom resulting from a curse. The story starts off with the cursing, and then the princess sacrificing her life to save her country. Her will carries 8 marbles to 8 different warriors who must come together and unite to defeat the evil that plagues the country of satomi."
Tengoklah semua orang, menarik...I have a copy of the movie. Here's a link for more info: Satomi Hakkenden. The link has pictures as well.
Sudah satu minggu. And this flu won't go away just yet. The longest I have in my history of having flu. Though not as bad as last weekend, my voice still comes out funny and and I still blow my nose in class everyday. My friend next to me keep asking, "Daijyoubu desuka", it's becoming embarassing. Bile agaknye nak baik? The chronology of my flu:
Friday,Saturday,Sunday- major nose leaking, major headache, earpain(the same pain you get when you go to a higher plane), funny voice, feverish sypmtoms Monday,Tuesday- nose leaking, funny voice, headache, hidung tersumbat thus difficulty of breathing and speaking, in addition toothache(gusi bengkak) Wednesday, Thursday- nose leaking, funny voice, toothache
Hopefully this nose leaking and funny voice thingy will stop tomorrow and especially this damn toothache.
I just had my commencement attire ordered and my graduation picture taken today. Yay! But don't want to go home just yet. Or don't want to get stuck in this freakingly uninteresting town either. Just wanna go to some new place and start afresh. Like the beautiful Anguilla or Bahamas or the hustle-bustle with vibrant lights city Tokyo or the city with mesmerizing palaces and temples Thailand.
