N . A .

Fourth day of school!!! And I'm so TIRED! GRRR. Ah well, anyway, I think I am adapting pretty well...just dead tired. BUT one thing that really make me so stressed out is the tons of assignments!

They actually released the assignment(S), note the "s", even before school officially opens! =( "So dead!!! -jumps off- XD!"


Ah well, hope i can cope with all these workloads >_> oh ya, the only thing that ease the pain of doing these assignments is that I get to go to the ZOO! WAHAHAHAH, been a really long time since i've been there but this time round need go there and observe the animal that I am suppose to model in 3D and draw them and take photographs of them and maybe a video of them ignoring you. -_-

Recently watched a R21 movie XD on Youtube called "Eternal Summer" . It has won tons of awards but one thing about it which makes it R21 is that it involved gay theme and some sexual scenes. The director really got some really nice shots in there and the editing of the movie is really clean! The female lead's acting skills is really nice, reminds me of shu qi, first of all, it's pitch silent, only ambience sound in da movie then she gt some expressionless face and suddenly one drop of tear rolled down her cheeks, so cool =D! (ya lah, drama -..-)

I dun understand why ppl are avoiding this movie just because it's gay theme or rated R21 -__-" It's a great movie but i personally think that the ending SUCKS. Maybe it's because i dont understand it but i like the shooting style, the cutting of scenes and such are really nice but one thing i've noticed is that the director din give any headroom for the actors, I wonder if it's delibrate...

oh one last thing which make me believed that the ratings for movies are so screw is this:

<<<VILLAGE PEOPLE RADIO SHOW

Rating: NC16
Consumer Advice: Content Not Suitable For Children
Genre: Documentary
Director: Amir Muhammad

In the propaganda war against the Communist Party of Malaya (CPM), much was made of the fact that the party comprised ethnic Chinese who adopted an atheistic political philosophy. This tactic proved effective as the country was mainly Malay and Muslim. However, a large and influential division of the CPM comprised Malay-Muslims. This documentary is a portrait of life in a tranquil South Thailand village, complete with mosque, where the retired members live in exile. Recollections of the decades-long guerrilla war are interspersed with a fictional Thai radio drama.>>>

NOTE: it's a documentary.

LOL! Like children(age 1 - 10, in my personal view, but nowadays, maybe age 1 -14 bah) will machiam go watch documentary in Cinema like that, even if they are loaded with money, i think they will go for something more entertaining like some penguins action XD!
