26th-Nov-2009 08:24 pm - Capitalism A Love Story
bobby

I have to admit I kinda fell asleep in the middle of the movie, and the whole show really tested my knowledge of finance.. which is almost next to zilch.
Socialism/Capitalism I can understand.. but refinance and mortgage are not terms I'm familiar with..

I don't like the film, because
1) The middle of the film almost put me to sleep.
2) The theme is kinda heavy, because that is where sg might be heading. It's too close to home for comfort. lol but not facing it will mean I have my head in the ground like a ostrich.
3) It's very extreme.
4) Perhaps because I'm too used to the thinking that people reap what they sow, this is what they deserve at the end of the day. But of course this is a macro pov...
5) Half the film was filmed with shaky hands.
6) I don't like shows that try to "plead" by having crying children,
7) Conspiracy theory?

Nevertheless, it is a good movie because it touches on very important issues on what is happening around us right now!

Still.. not exactly worth watching in a cinema.. (because I almost died working my brain on such a heavy topic for 2 hours....>_<)

Oh.. and overworked my brain.. @_@ Work has been very brain-demanding these few days because my supervisor is not around, and the other one will be going to China next week too, so I have to make sure I know all my work....>_<
Writing Japanese business emails is also becoming more and more fun and challenging!~ XDDD

bobby


Borrowed from Ros.
I can see she really loves fantasy novels. XDD

I was tempted into reading it after watching an episode of the TV series Legend of the Seeker.
The novel is really good ^_^ Thanks so much to Ros for lending it to me.
It sorts of reminded me of Stardoc - mainly because they are also travelling around, and also get to meet other cultures and people. (I guess what I loved most about Stardoc is how they travel to new planets, meet new aliens and get bewildered by the culture).
But the latter-mid part of the novel was kinda @_@.. very.. S.M.? lol

Now I'm tempted to watch the tv series (but am too lazy to sit in front of my computer to watch it also), and don't be too shocked when I say that I want to watch it because the main antagonist, Darken Rahl, is acted by Craig Parker, who plays Haldir in LOTR. Another reason why I want to watch to it.. is because I want to know how Rahl is pronounced.. =.=|| Ra, rare? rear? ra-wu?
22nd-Nov-2009 08:27 am - Lord of the Rings Novel
bobby


Finally ended my LOTR marathon, which started last sunday, when I started watching the 3 dvds at a spur of the moment...
which turned into a 1 week marathon when I started reading the novels..
mayu and I had the books for ages, but she was the one of 2 of us who managed to finish reading all 3 books, and even downed The Hobbit (I think).
(I have no idea where The Hobbit is now, or if we did buy it or not.)
But for once I managed to read through all 3 books (Except the notes at the back introducing all the different types of people and their ancestral lines)
Even the Two Towers part on how Frodo and Sam suffered Gollum and the climb to Mordor. @_@ Oh well, at least I had Faramir to look forward to while reading that part.. XDDD
Oh I miss the lotr exhibition!! XDD It was so intersesting! XDDD
Off to listen to LOTR soundtrack~~

21st-Nov-2009 12:09 am - Meeting Dajie!~
bobby
Got a nice happy surprise this morning when dajie smsed me to join her for dinner @ Vivo city that night.
Definitely got to go meet her since I havent met her since Summer Fest 2008!

Haha, she really never changed.. XDD still the happy-go-lucky, cheerful, bubbly girl I remember her to be. Except she cut her hair!!!! >_< I didnt recognize her.. @_@ ohmydajie arhh.

lol dinner @ White Dog Cafe @ Vivo city. Nice environment, except abit too cold (for Sharon. I'm okay with 16 degrees aircon). Food was good. Dessert was great. ^_^ But i kinda prefer NYNY and Swensons, sizzlers over them ..lol expensive taste sia..

Ah.. but it is nice meeting dajie XDDD.. we never run out of stuff to talk about even though our lives are completely different. I'm working, but almost like a type of freeter since it is a 6 months contract, and I suspect my next job might very well be contract too. I wish to travel and long to live in another country for a 1-2 year period of time (not necessary Japan). She is a teacher, very happy with her job, because she's just always happy and satisfied with what she has in life (I envy her), and is very comfortable in sg, knows that the world might offer her more, but still prefers to stay here, and I'm very envious of her for all of that. It seems like a long time since I have been last satisfied with what I have. >_< There are so many things I want in life, and I cant stop wanting them, because if I stop, there's nothing to motivate me.

So, we chatted all the way from 7+ till 11pm, all the way until we had to stop because I was getting off the MRT. Got to meet up again with her soon!! Hope it won't be another 1 year+ till the next time we meet!

lol .. and as usual, dajie had to help me dig my ezlink card out of my bag.. @_@ seems like every time we meet, she always has to help me find my stuff.. (or is it that i always lose my stuff when she is around?) 
15th-Nov-2009 10:47 am - Wii
bobby
New 47 inch TV arriving on the 18th, so I'm again considering buying the Wii again... prices are so cheap in Japan.. haiz..

Shop near my house selling a Wii from Korea, unlocked (can play US, JP, unofficial games, with some throw-in freebies which I was in a hurry and didn't ask much that day, SGD480.

Worth it?
14th-Nov-2009 11:48 pm - 2012
bobby

Went to watch with my mom and dad (dad suggested) XD
XDDDD
Definitely worth watching in the cinema, for all the panoramic scenes!~
I was fully alert through out the whole show XDD
But loses out slightly to Day after tomorrow (okay, I love Day after tomorrow because of the epic snow)

I doubt the world will end in 2012, but the movie is very interesting (given my deep interest in geography, in particular, plate tectonics. If I never went into Japanese studies, I might have chosen geography XDD)

*Spoiler*
Hmm.. in the end, father saves the day for his kids, and no he does not sacrifice. Mother's bf died, but he just died of some freak accident and not for some noble cause.
2nd protagonist is also black~ He has a happy ending and he is not the funny guy who always survives.
U.S. President is black and chose to die in his land.
Main antagonist is white and capitalist
Guy who discovered that the world is going to end is an Indian (and gets drowned)
U.S. is like, the first one to get demolished.
China (or rather Tibet) is the last spot to be flooded.
China is a wonderful spot for building arks.
The highest point on earth at the end of the apocalypse is Africa, Cape of Good Hope
Females are not highly featured - mother-roles, supporting roles, president's kinda naive daughter or dead.

Hmm. Singapore is not mentioned throughout, but I guess we most likely would have met up with one of the scenarios below
1) Earthquake hits sg, we sink - since earthquakes are happening everywhere already, sg might not be spared.
2) Some Indonesian volcano errupts, we get smoldered, either by the huge output of lava, or the ashes,ooh and chances of sulphur poisoning.
3) Even if the earthquake doesnt hit us directly, the tsunamis from everywhere will drown us before we even see it.
4) Due to earth crust displacement, we land up abit too near the North/South pole and freeze to death.

bobby

Stolen from Ros XD
I like the song but never knew its title..
She's right, it is nice to listen to it every now and then.
