after 2 weeks of not being able to operate my baby laptop (cuz i left my charger in my house)...i finally have it back in my wonderful (though a bit meaty) arms....YES
i have so many things to write but so limited time ARGH...where do i start? Ok..it's been 3 weeks after internship and 2 weeks since college started...and i'm so so excited cuz we have some really cool assignments lined-up for us...i am so happy to be back to doing these fun assignments. I mean, during internship, i dont really get to involve myself in the creative output area...i'm more in the management of production area. Now, i get to write treatments...contribute ideas and get my team's production running....it's really stressful but very fun. we also get to cover events and news and i just can't wait to get out there, interviewing people and stuff...
also i get to write a documentary script and learn about cinematography....
i guess this time around i have a wonderful team working with me n i've never been happier. i guess in the end, the marks is not as important as the fun experiences we all go through together. but of course the journey will be sweeter if there is additional sugar (marks) along the way hehe...
well, since i am a broadcast student, i always find a way to 'lepak' (loaf) around town with my pals despite my 'hectic' schedule....the thing about us is, we can always find excuses to go to shopping centres.. Example? We have to shop because we need to find outfits for our lead actors....so since we had had a long day searching for the right wardrobe, we should relax and watch a movie!!! YAY!! What have i watch lately?
Just the other day, i went to watch "Indiana Jones" with my friends and sister...I actually planned to watch "Speedracer" with my sis, since i have free tickets to the movie (ok i have to give credit to the one who gave it to me..- my friend, YC - you know who you are) but then the day he gave it to me was unfortunately the day the cinemas decided that it's time to end its transmission, so to speak....
anywayz...i then joined my frenz who planned to watch Indiana Jones. Well i am not exactly a fan of the Indiana Jones sequels so i wasnt tat excited to watch it...i'd actually prefer "Prom Night" but it wasnt airing yet...sigh...but since everyone is saying that Indiana Jones is a must-watch, i went for it. i wouldnt say that is was a bad movie, but i don't think that it is in any way that special. I mean, if you like those fake CGI techniques, then you might be impressed. But if you are someone who prefers a brilliant storyline, like me, then maybe you wouldnt be swept off your feet with the story. it was a pretty normal story...a bit weird if you ask me....incorporating aliens and stuff just doesnt make sense to me. the actions and butt-kicking scenes were in someways hillarious but still it failed to make me go "WAO!" and jump off my seat. at the end of the movie, there is not much that can be said about the movie. So i would say...it was 11 bucks not worth spending....if only "Speedracer" is still on =(
I am very keen to watch "Speedracer" (though the review of the movie is less than welcoming)because i really wanna see how Rain speaks English haha. I mean, God, he has improved so much! Plus, "Speedracer" has effects that has to be experience in the cinema...watching at home on your PC makes it less interesting and reduce the fast car effects to nothing....
Anywayz, a week before Indiana Jones i watched "Disturbia" ...it is definitely a much more nerve-wrecking and nail-biting movie. After watching "Disturbia", my impression of Shia Labeouf changed a little. I am not really a fan of him ...dont like him in "Transformer"...don't ask me why, i guess i just lack taste. but after watching "disturbia", he seems ok. But i am definitely not crazy over him. haha...But "Disturbia" is really a cool watch. It is thrilling and just keeps you awake throughout the movie. i must say that the front was a bit draggy though....how he spies on the girl and stuff can be shortened. I do like the way they shot the front part - the accident in which Shia killed his father...it was so real, it's like i'm driving that car....
the end part was a bit scary...imagine my tomboyish sister running around n pausing the movie just to get herself prepared for that part. i was like...what the hell? i thought you were supposed to be the brave one? instead, i redeemed myself as the more courageous one haha...though i am ''sweet'' and ''innocent'' looking ;)
anywayz if you havent watch "Disturbia"...i would say - GO FOR IT! Maybe just to pee yourself haha...only kidding
I also had a chance to finally watch one of the most talked about Chinese movie "CJ 7"...it is definitely hillarious but of course the storyline can be improved. It kinda ended abruptly for me but overall, it wasnt as great as everyone said it is. there were a few touching father and son scenes, which generated and wasted my tears...and it was so embarrassing to actually cry in front of my friends. i have no idea why these days i find it hard to hold back tears. anywayz, if you just want some time to relax to some ridiculous chinese humor, CJ 7 should definitely be your pick. The kids in the movie sure can act! they are hillarious.
the lead alien (for those who do not know, CJ7 is actually the name of the alien in the movie) however, in my opinion is not as cute as Chicken Little. So i am not crazy over it. But then again, it doesnt need my approval to be the most adorable creature to ever grace our land because if you go shopping around Malaysia, you will see a lot of CJ7 around. it has a big fury head and usually a green body. looks like it has alot fans. Chicken Little, dont fret...my heart is always with you! But i must say, if Stephen Chow were to earn any royalty from the merchandises, he would have gain tonnes of $$$$ ('ka-ching') through the sale of CJ7 dolls...BRILLIANT Businessman!! Now he can concentrate of burying himself in the money and sleep....Maybe i should be drafting a plan to sell my "TAMMY-THE-GREAT" dolls....hmmm.....
Time for some music
I'd like to introduce you to some really nice music....i find one from Taylor Swift very inspirational to me because personally, i feel the lyrics of the song...
it is entitled "Tied Together with a Smile"
this song is written by Taylor to her best friend who is suffering from food disorder. Taylor said in an interview that this song is about her friend, whom she thought is so altogether is in fact very insecured and fragile. I guess, in some ways i am like that. I may seem OK and smiling most of the time, but inside, i might not be happy at all. And i am definitely that kinda person who tries to fish for compliments and believe me, i find myself very annoying at times.
i am always overshadowed by hot people. Most of my best friends are HOT! They are tall, pretty and whatever a guy wish for. I am always the side-kick. i'd be lying if i say that i'm not jealous of them but then again, part of me is proud of who i am and so i can still managed to console myself. I dont care when guys come up to my friends but i just feel left out when my friends sideline me because of their guys....It's like i have no one to turn to at all when i face these situations. when i am low, i tend to feel so unpretty, but most of the times, i made it through the tough times after a cup of Neslo ice and some TV or Movie....
I went through some of the most intimidating moments during my national service training. i've never been slammed for my physical appearance before and during national service, i was criticized by some guys in camp. My best friend is clueless abt wat i went through because she's the hottie in camp. she enjoys privileges that she can't imagine. i was left out. But thank God i have another friend who helped me through it....thinking back...who are those people to judge me anyway rite? and i definitely dont blame my best friend for being the hottest in camp haha...she's still my bestest buddy til today!
But she is not only the hot friend...i have loads of Hot girlfriends....even now in college, my best friend is hot (though she doesnt realize it)...if i were a guy, it would be nice, wouldnt it? hehehe
Another thing with me is that people tend to think i get angry easily when in fact i don't. i feel so misunderstood most of the times. Some thinks i'm snobbish and i just do not know how to deal with that. i am already insecured and to add on to that, people misjudge me. i dont get angry easily nor am i snobbish but i must admit that i get JEALOUS easily..*hint*hint*
But fortunately, my case is not a serious case because i am still a forgetful person. so i might be very sad one day, and the next, i would have completely forgotten what happened...taadaaa!! Plus, i have parents who guided me well hehe...so i wont murder because of envy
but All i wanna say is...that song helps console me when i am down...its lyrics just makes me feel better and i just feel that this is one song that can inspire all those who are insecured and who needs a friend....
The next song that i discover is "Capri" by Colbie Caillat!! After listening to this song, i've decided to name my future adopted daughter, Capri! Listen to that song and you'll know why hehe...it is such a beautiful song about a mum carrying her baby girl....awwww.....
so try to get hold of this 2 songs....that's all for now...i have drooping eyelids now haha...time for bed...
TIED TOGETHER WITH A SMILE - TAYLOR SWIFT
CAPRI - COLBIE CAILLAT
take care people
til next time
with lotsa love,
tammy the great!!
p/s: A great way to instill confidence in oneself - call yourself great names like i do hehe...
