Hillsong United in Singapore.

I seem to have less control of my tear-ducts recently.

Three days in a row my tears spilled out of my eyes.
One time on the bus some more.

WHY:
Day 1: The Weepies - The World Spins Madly On/Across the Universe/other sad youTube videos.
Day 2: The Rescue - Nicholas Sparks. The middle to the end was damn sad
Day 3: The Time Traveler’s Wife

Damn it.

Need to stay away from tear-jerking and heart-tugging stuff.

3rd generation.
It’s now twice faster than the former two

And, no.

I don’t care what you say.

Busy, busy week! switched to a new department.
(or something like that.)

sigh.

Been having some troubles with relationships recently. But am gonna try to fix it.
I mean.

Life’s too short to have bitter feelings, when all we should be doing is enjoying each others company in good times, and going through hard times together.

So now, whoevers fault it is doesn’t matter to me.
What matters is having good relationships with the people who are important to me.

will update properly when i can breathe again.

till then, strengthen your relationships with the important people around you.

Good relationship is one of the only FEW things that matter in life.

Imagine this.

If you were on your deathbed, seconds left in the world,
you’re not gonna ask for your degree certificate.
you’re not gonna ask the nurses to fetch your cash or your bonds, or your Italian suit.
You’re not gonna ask the doctor to let you hug your BMW car-keys, and tell him you’re the Director of So and so company.

You’re gonna wish like hell that the people you love - the people who love you - are there right beside you saying goodbye.
That they are the last thing you see in this world.

That’s how you know what matters.

I was inspired by Zeee, Joyyy, and this, this and this.

and this:

BUCK the Weasel saved Ice Age: 3.

seriously.

It was pretty boring until he appeared.
Only then did the movie become funny.

I’ll write more later.

here’s some more fail from failblog.org

i nearly stabbed myself in the eye today while putting on my contact lens.

anyway.

On a totally unrelated note:
I was reading my July issue of Readers’ Digest and found two interesting articles to share with you:

1. Apollo 11
40 years ago, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first men on the moon. July 1969, Commander Neil Armstrong bounced onto the moon, the first moon-walk, and grunted the iconic line, “That’s one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind.”

   
(from left to right) Neil Armstrong on the moon; Neil Armstrong; Buzz Aldrin

Readers’ Digest had a full writeup on how everything happened, and honestly, the article was incredibly moving - depicting the amount of pressure and responsibility those men had - The entire planet earth’s expectations and hopes weighing on their shoulders. The feeling of excitement, and at the same time, utter dread as the shuttle launched while they were strapped and sealed to it.

Billions of people praying as they watched the spaceship burst off the ground; whispering ‘go!’ as tears streamed down their face.

The article briefly summarizes the mission and the success of it. The first step off the landing vehicle was actually more than 3 feet - not such a small step after all.
It’s interesting how landing on the moon turned hardened, trained astronauts into 8 year old boys, jumping around in ecstasy in the zero-gravity.

Neil Armstrong’s words can be heard at http://nasa.gov

2. Total Eclipse
There will be a total eclipse on July the 22nd, 2009. It’s a wednesday.
The moon will be between Earth and the sun, and unlikethe few previous eclipses, (which were partial eclipses) this one will be a TOTAL ECLIPSE.

all that’s missing is the word ‘HEROES’

Certain areas in China and Japan will experience total darkness.
In South-east asia, however, it will only appear to be slightly darkened. We will still be able to see the shadow of the moon covering the sun, and it will only get about as dark as a regular stormy cloudy day.
In Malaysia, the eclipse will be at 8:44am to 9:44am, peaking at 9:11am.

Don’t miss it.

warning: may contain minor spoilers

————————————————————
I didn’t really like it.

did you?
Before u crucify me, hear me out.

WHY I DIDN’T LIKE IT

1. I sat the 5th row from the screen.
I was too close to the action. Granted, Mikaela was right in my face and looked like she was waiting for me to say ‘I love you’, and the college girl/transformer’s butt/blue panties were pointed toward me before she jumped on Sam.
But the giant vacuum cleaner robot’s metal scrotum was also in my face, and the fighting hurt my eyes.

2. There was too much fighting
seriously. It was really awesome for the first hour. But then there was too many robots all the time. The slow motion scenes were great, but the high-speed clanking around really got old for me. Again, this might be because of reason#1 (read above)

3. They overplayed Mikaela
I swear. I like her so much. But in this movie..Riding on her success too much? It made her look like a tool. Whoring her up. Some scenes were okay, but after awhile it was all slow motion bouncing boobs and zooming into her body. I dunno, it just sorta cheapens her. Not cool.

4. Very weak plot
The first movie had a more convincing storyline. The second one sounds weakly conjured up, with a Matrix and his brain having a map and “you can’t find the Matrix, you have to EARN it.” God. sounds like the story was written by a 10 year old. And like the storyline was shoved in between action scenes just for the sake of having a plot there.

5. I cannot understand what the Autobots are saying
Except for Optimus Prime, who actually talks coherently. The rest of them mumble, gurgle, and rush through their words WHILE other sounds creak and groan. I could only understand bumblebee in one scene, where everything was quiet.

6. It wasn’t funny
at least not as funny as the first one. The first one had some sort of charm, and to me, the second one didn’t. Some parts were downright lame, and I really felt like walking out of the cinema whenever the two robots (the twins) were on-screen. They annoyed the hell out of me and i can’t believe that was supposed to be some form of humor.

okay, to be fair:

WHY I LIKED IT
1. The action scenes/robot designs were beautiful
The slow motion fight scenes were awesome. The fast-moving ones made my head spin too much. The size of the robots and the detail were breath-taking. Kudos to the design/CGI team.

2. Mikaela
She’s out-of-this-world hot. She made me all-spark, got me all witwicky.

3. Optimus Prime was cool
He was better in this movie. True story.

Did YOU like it?
Better than the first?
tell me why.
