The Great Debaters…

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

A great film…

Finally had the time to watch this film which i bought 2 weeks ago…Denzel Washington stars and directs this film stunningly…forest whitaker co-stars as well…

Produced by Oprah Winfrey, this film tells the tale of a small Black debate team in a town in Texas who went on to beat the Harvard debate team…it’s a good film…greta script…good cinematography and a nice soundtrack courtesy of james newton howard…

but i have to admit that all the actors played their roles well…im not surprised for its nominations in the golden globe for best film…it deserves it…maybe a strong chance might win it…but i still have yet to watch atonement which i think will be its storngest contender…american gangster was good but i dun think its good enough to bag an award…

my rating 9 out of 10…

Sanctuary…

Friday, January 4th, 2008

It was an amazing day yesterday…From work till clubbing at night…Started the day as normal…went to work…but…the office keeps bugging me to have me own show…i need ideas…

anyways, i was able to finish work early and go to the curve to meet jon and gang for bee’s birthday dinner…arrived at curve at 7.30…so freaking hungry…i called them and they say they were stucked in jam…waited and i couldnt wait any longer…rushed to the nearest and cheapest food shop…secret recipe…a pie was enough to satisfy me…8.30pm…they call…saying a change of menu…thank god i had something to eat earlier otherwise i would have been really pissed…and so the new venue was victoria station…went there…met them…they ate i didnt cos i just ate and it was also quite expensive…had a glass of red wine…lovely wine though…

and the next moment, i hear them talking about bottles and alcohol…confused, i ask wat they talking about…they were going to have a drink in bee’s place after dinner…alchohol from jon or smtg…and this was a big blow for me…why?…cos i was not informed at all…and i had already made plans to meet up careen and gang at sanctuary…

so, i started thinking…which should i ditch…my friends of four years from mufy or my comm gang…i really wanted to join my mufy friends but i den realized, i promised to provide transport to the comm gang…so if i dun go, afew wont be able to go…i didnt really have a choice…so i went off to sanctuary after dinner…

went to sanctuary…went in the club…met vimal a.k.a dd a.k.a dj of club…had a nice long chat with him…and den they came…and we partied…partied like a rockstar…haha…we were in the club till 2am…den after that, me and eunice went to speak with dd again…it was nearly 3 now…and we were starving…went to murni…ate there…met his royal highness KING…king from communication…

earlier we met aaron lee in sanctuary…so i guess it was a good night out…tiring but i had lots of fun…my only regret was i couldnt be with my mufy buddies…well, moral of story…if u ever change plans, let everyone know…

got my pay check yesterday…300 bucks for 15 days of work is not bad…haha…well, at least i have money saved for penang trip…cant wait to take the aeroline from one utama…lets see how good it is…

oh and joanne, if ur reading this, we need to catch up AGAIN!!!…haha…maybe after ur big event which i hope i can cover…cheers…

and lastly

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY KIM CHEONG FAI…

Got a new dog…

A golden retrevier…

Puppy…

About 8 months old…

From SPCA…

I think its the best place to find dogs…may not be pure breeds but they need homes…

I dun believe in spending a thousand ringgit on a pup…

Dogs are not products…

My dog’s a bitch…

Yup she’s a bitch…

We call her Brandy…

Not the best  name for a dog  but it comes to us when we call it…

Obedient but barks a lot…

She’s gonna do fine…

2008…where dreams come true…
