True, true.

Sense and Sensibility was... OMG.

I kinda went !@#$% WTHWTHWTH !@#$% in the middle but in the end, its all good. Not expected but good I guess. I kinda feel ...weird? in some way because I think that Brandon should be better off with Elinor and Edward with Marianne. o.o;; OH WELL. I should just read the book first before making any judgements. I thought that Wiloughby guy was like that Wickham guy from Pride and Prejudice but who knows that in the end, he actually really loved Marianne. Again. Money, money, money. Reputation, reputation, reputation. GAH, WHOCARES! Look at Darcy, the hell he cares, right? My beloved Mr. Darcy? :3

Sense and Sensibilty was on at 6.45 PM yesterday. I almost missed it. I was watching it with my dad. Note to self: don't watch classic romance movies with bapa. -.- Then JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB was up after that. This one was refreshing. It makes me geekily wanna have a book club or join one. Jane Austen anyone? Or perhaps TWILIGHT? Since I am finished with 4 of the SAGAs. :D After watching the movie, it really makes me want to read all Jane Austen books. Karang tah kali aku start.

Yesterday morning I went out with my parents, INITIALLY with a desire to buy new eyemake-ups; eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara. I don't really care about eyebrows right now. So yes, that was my ULTIMATE OBJECTIVE for that morning. SEKALINYA... I bought DVDs pulang. o.o; I couldn't resist Vampire Knight OKAY. It has been on my list for ages. Kesian aku ah. I bought VK, VK Guilty and Special A (Part 1). Like wth, PART 1 SAJA AKU BALI?! Yatah bari malas wah beparts ani. I don't like to go there again and search for the 2nd part. Grhh. I didn't bother to search for Skip Beat! because ITS NOT FINISHED YET. Cuatah jangan beseason-season ani. I am tired of waiting. Speaking of the devil, I wonder if there are updates on Skip Beat! manga for the past week? :\

And one last thing before I go:

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMIFINALS:
MANCHESTER UNITED VS. ARSENAL TONIGHT! :D

Siapa sangka.

WOW. FINALLY A MALAY HEADING. LOL.

I checked all the headings/post titles for the past 2 years plus and all of them are in english! But this isn't about the headings at all. This is about football. o.o Yes, siapa sangka aku lihat bola sepak. Premier League to be exact. o.o

I told myself over and over again:
IF I am going to fly off to UK this year, I really would want to watch the DPMMFC football matches AT LEAST ONCE, WITH MY FRIENDS, before I go.
Balum tah sampai-sampainya hajat ku ah. All my friends are either not here in Brunei/Muara and/or busy. They work and get paid while I bust my ass for sitting too long in front of the TV, watching kdramas and CH554/5, and lately, watching Premier League with my dad. Want to know which FC are we rooting for? If I tell, kena blacklisted karang oleh orang Liverpool. :D NGEEEEEEE. 5-2 with Tottenham baby! Come on, thats not just luck! :p Sorry but I don't speak, read and play football but I get excited to watch them live (on TV). :) Thats my another wish I guess, that I will watch them live in a stadium.

Whats up with CH555? Did you guys followed the CHINA EMPIRES series few weeks ago? Well, I did. From the Terracotta armies to The Last Emperor: Puyi; that also includes The Great Wall of China and The Forbidden City. Pity that I didn't get to watch The Seize of Beijing and The Rebellion thing.

Watch the show programmes for CH555 here.

No wonder Chinese people are always brilliant; they have brilliant ancestors. :)

Book worm restored?

HAAH. YES.

I have been reading BOOK(S) alot lately. Novels, romance novels to be exact. (giggle) Yes, deep inside I am a romantic person. (blush)

ROFL.

Awu wah, whocares about the fact that I am romantic. GOD, I am that girly afterall rupanya. OKAY STOP.

JANE AUSTEN. Famous isn't she? To English Literature students at least. No, I haven't read her books YET but I LOVE THE MOVIE ADAPTATIONS OF HER WORKS. I first watched Pride and Prejudice at HBO, last year I think and since then I have been searching for the DVD. I only get the DVD on request. Then sometime months ago, I came across with Becoming Jane; I think you can call it 'her love life movie biography'.
AKU SUKA JAMES MCAVOY. :) And I have yet to request a DVD for it.

Then tomorrow. TOMORROW! I really didn't know that Sense and Sensibility was already adapted into a movie jua. >_<  Tomorrow Jane Austen Book Club and Sense and Sensibility are playing on HBO. I better check the movie programme on what time is it on.

Waait, apakan aku ah, cakap 'Book worm restored' but been talking about movies all along.

Well, to be fair, I shall list down all the novels that I have read for the past 2 months:
  • TWILIGHT SAGA BOOK 1: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

And the whole series of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R Tolkien:
  • BOOK 1: The Fellowship of the Ring
  • BOOK 2: The Two Towers
  • BOOK 3: The Return of the King
So any other recommendations? :D

If you are curious, I do not buy the novels, I download their e-books here and if you may, MAKE USE OF THE POWER OF GOOGLE. ;p But of course, I don't plan to stay cheap all the time by keeping rip-offs, I will buy the hardcovers someday when I can afford them and this only applies to the ones that are worth to buy. NGEEE :D :D

P/S: I would want a vampire lover. :3

STRRIIKKEEEEEEEE.


Did I ever mention that I am such a TWILIGHT hardcore fan? o.o

Yush would laugh at me if he knows about this. He always said that Twilight is girly, not the type that I would be fangirling on. He also hates the fact that Twilight kind of denies the myths about vampires i.e. their image reflects on mirrors? or they glitters under sunlight? o.o Well I don't know about any of that in the first place anyways. NGEE. :D

It only started about a month ago though. My sister lend me her Twilight that one day. I wasn't expecting anything. Besides, people said that its boring. So anyways, yes, I admit it was too fast, the plot was very much lacking in details; I didn't know about it until I read the book. Yes, yes, I read the book. I finished it in 3 days. And finished the whole SAGA in 3 weeks. If that is not hardcore, I don't know what other verb should I use for it. PLUS I AM ON MIDNIGHT SUN! When most people barely gets through ECLIPSE. See. Majal.

My favourite scene from Twilight is the Baseball scene. One, because they look so vampire-ish and two, because of SUPER MASSIVE BLACK HOLE! :D :D The soundtrack goes with the scene.

The second movie of Twilight, NEW MOON, will be out on 20th November 2009. I can't wait to see the Volturi in action and Jacob's! There should be less of Edward in New Moon, that most of you who have read the book should know and expected.

Feel free to check out the updates on New Moon and its casts at NEW MOON MOVIE.

Hello. I am back.

Oh, hello. I am back.

Yes, I am so back to blogging. So as you can see, my template is off the template rack and I guess I will not bother myself to change it for a while. I think I can live with it. I think.

I am updating my blogroll right now. Been missing a lot of stuff.
