what to say about Singapore Idol: Guys Round 1 Piano Show?
standard has dropped drastically. the only GOOD ones have been Paul Twohill and Jon.Leong. Paul's 'Here without you' was beyond impression, so all he needs to do is to cut his EMO hair. argh.
Jon Leong's "If I'm Gone", Sly no.2, showed emotion and that separated from him from the rest. so in the words of Ken Lim to the other 5 contestants:
:"You've got no this, no this and no that. you got no chance".
here's wishing a good night's sleep will cure my mini bout of flu.

surprisingly, the day turned out to be quite fun. dragged myself out of bed early at 730am to attend the SYMC in school. but upon seeing the different cosplayers somehow pirked my day up... :) maybe I should have cosplayed hahaha, but ok, another time.
paper presentations were ok too. some were interesting, especially the Singlish one lah. and then there was the 'Mat' culture presentation which was really insightful. The 'effects of anime' wasn't that bad either, I actually agreed with their hypothesis.. but too bad, i stoned at the 5th paper presentation and doodled around on the free notebook in the goodie bag.
so after SYMC, i went to watch Xmen 3... with my parents!! they hadn't been to a theatre in like 2 years, so I dragged them down to watch ' a movie out of their generation' (to quote my mom haha) ok so about the movie, it had its good points and bad points.
Good points: 1) The actress who took on the role of Phoenix really looked the part. Those haunting black eyes.... oh my.
2) Action action action... thats what Xmen is about anyway. Most of the time ahah.
3) Special effects galore.. you have to see for yourself when Phoenix runs riot.
Bad points: 1) Rubbish storyline. I'd say they really wanted to end it quickly. After all, it's the last movie... right?
2) Too many characters killed. Like Cyclops and Prof. X. Like WHOA! ok so they ran out of ideas perharps.
3) No gambit, no psylocke, no other popular Xmen or villians. Juggernaut was a disgrace.
but anyway, at least it entertained me. and my parents too. still, catch the movie. if you really want some brawl, love and... err.. kill time.

So the Da Vinci Code wasn't that bad, nor it wasn't that good either. I think people who read the book will find it ok/average. for those who didnt, it will be good. Or otherwise...
I went to church today and Da Vinci brochures and flyers were being circulated. they were all about separating the fact from fiction in the book. And some instances whereby there were actual emails and letters sent in by people who were convinced by the theories in the book.
I've come to my own conclusion after this week of Da Vinci-ness. It's up to one's decision whether or not they keep their faith or throw it away. Faith is believing in something that you can't see. But look at all the Christians today who have strong faith. They are better persons, some have changed and amended their ways. Note that I am speaking from personal experience if you do not agree.. but.. Even if you say that God is not real, just look at these people. What is it that keeps them strong? How is it that they have peace with themselves?
Faith is so powerful.

I chose Chelsea over Man Utd ~ New signing Michael Ballack
oh yeah ok. i shall now categorise you in People who follow money.. (the dude will earn a freaking 130,000 pounds a week!!). when you had the opportunity to fall under People who follow their heart. i explained too much already so just forget bout it. Lest my father comes up to me and gloats how they should just give Chelsea the title without even playing. hurrhurr.
i jus finished reading the Da Vinci Code (which i set my own record of finishing a book in 1.5 days). interesting and intriguing is all i can conclude. hopefully the movie will justify the book, or I would have wasted the money.

its quite irritating when all of your friends have watched something that you havent. and thats right bout now.
other than that, i think you having a girlfriend has turned your world upside down. in a good and bad way. it's good b'cos having one would bring you out of your social shell and start talking to people.
bad b'cos i THINK that it has made you neglect alot of things. cos last nite, you pissed me off bad. i don't know whether you were really wit her, but taking 1 freakin hour by cab to come is totally unheard of. (i've taken before and it only takes 30 - 40 mins). and givin me the same ol lame excuse I THOUGHT I THOUGHT. don't u know by now its at the bottom of the excuse list? fancy telling me you were gonna be there at grandma's place and with a present. even told u wad to buy, but u didnt. phone calls after midnight is alright, but talking all the way till 2am plus is asking for dipshit, bearing in mind that you are not paying for your bill. im waiting to see now whether this month's payment will hit over 100 bucks. that will take the whole roof off, including mom.
hope you apologise, or i will not be in the mood to even look at you.

'Ruud V.Nistelrooy has left Old Trafford 3 hrs before the Charlton match.'
My favourite player in the world of football now has his future in the balance after doing that. sigh... such is football. being pessimistic, i think he will be leaving once the World Cup ends. but better swap for a better striker to make the deal worth it.
'ruud.. ruud.. ruud... oh why are u leaving? i have the jersey with ur number on it" -.-
