movie day

Yesterday, I went to JJ Bukit Tinggi with lovely F and XY.., :) We went to watch movie - I explain in details later..., my planned to go for book haunting was totally ruined.., because by the time we were out from the movie theater, we were too tired.., especially me since I slept at 5am.., the night before...

Owh.., regarding the movie, we watched 'I am number four', and yeah.., I'm also thinking the same thing that you are thinking now, what's up with the title. hehehe :) well, by the way.., the movie was ok, Alex Pettyfer (John Smith) was terrific in it, but the love story between him and Dianne Argon (Sarah) was lacking. In terms of the chemistry and how it was being put in the story. I read the review of the book (the movie was adapted from the book with the same title) and it seems that many readers find the love story as awesome and almost can be at the same par with Edward- Bella (Twilight Saga) and Sam-Grace (Shiver) couple. Owh, really? But.., somehow it is not being convey accordingly in the movie, and the combination of the elements of sci-fi and the love story make it a bit weird and somehow the love story become tasteless, its just not there, not good enough maybe..??? or probably its because I'm not a big fan of sci-fi story. Ohh well..., I just don't know whats wrong, but somehow, somewhere, something is wrong.

Nonetheless, there are some quotes that I found adorable from the movies... :)

John: [Reaching for book] What's this?
Sarah: Umm... That is kind of private, actually.
John: It's amazing!
Sarah: Ok, that's enough.
John: Seems like you want to run away.
Sarah: Just be happy when I can get out of here.
John: don't know - been to a lot of places...
Sarah: You don't have to give me that "there's no place like home" speech, I've heard it.
John: No - You can go wherever you want. See whatever you want to but, um... a place is only as good as the people you know in it.

"A place is only as good as the people you know in it" :)

I can't wait to watch Red Riding Hood and Beastly* this march..., I watched the trailer.., seems promising...

*Beastly is also adapted from a book with similar title by Alex Flinn. I'm so excited by this one, I wonder how Flinn retell the story of Beauty and the Beast and modernize it in Beastly, so I made my mind to read the book first before watching the movie..., can't wait to go to MPH and get my copy of the book.

books about.., books talking.., books writing...


Indeed.., after reading a good book.., somehow.., you will feel like you just lost a friend.., and you'll be laying down and staring at the ceiling while thinking of the book.., the characters in it and how one event leads to another event..., and its just seems too hard to comprehend on how great and how much you like the book :) I'm going for book haunting tomorrow..., wish me luck in finding the 'good' one...

BYS

No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.
~A Room of One’s Own, Virginia Woolf~

My meaning simply is, that whatever I have tried to do in life, I have tried with all my heart to do well; that whatever I have devoted myself to, I have devoted myself to completely; that in great aims and in small, I have always been thoroughly in earnest.

Dreams...

Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming,...
Dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before..

you are the only exception



When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble it

And my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist

But darling,
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
Keep a straight face

And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now

I had sworn to myself that I'm
Content with loneliness

Because none of it was ever worth the risk

Well, You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here
I know you're leaving
In the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream

Ohh---

You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception

And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, And I'm on my way to believing

My thoughts of this song:
I like it..., it stuck in mind.., after only listening to it once.. :)

I'm busy with load of works, still I'm watching drama.. :) lol

I've been so busy and tired.., I just begin my internship in school here at Klang., so its been hectic., now only I really know that working life is indeed hard and tiring..., But, well.., life is not a bed of roses, we need to go through a lot of new and difficult things, then only we can learn something new, right? :)

Lately, my only way to fine comfort and to put my mind away from dozen of works was with watching drama.., of course.., as expected from me..,

I've been so addicted with this one particular drama -'secret garden'.., its actually a korean drama., with awesome line of actors and actresses on it.., and hyun bin was so hot and dreamy in it.., hohoho..,

I really really love this drama...., the storyline is so fun, witty and different from other drama that I watched before, its not the same cliche drama with the 'predicted' story line..



Spectacular chemistry between Hyun Bin and Ha Ji Won :)
