Of John Carter movie review and other random things...

Hey there! Much apologies for the long disappearance. Been busy with life and studies, albeit it's my final semester and doing research papers is a pain in the ass!! How was your weekend? I hope all of you enjoyed it as much as I do! :) My saturday was really fun even though I was feeling a little sick throughout the day. I went to Kingfisher to meet le boyfriend and spend the whole day with him. We were chilling out at his aunt's house. Thank goodness that everyone else went back to Kota Belud and we can spend time alone. It felt great to be able to see his face and feel his arms around me, I feel so safe when I'm with him. We planned to go out for a movie earlier in the week and since it was I who chose the last movie ( it was The Devil Inside, which a total regret), I let him choose yesterday. I kinda knew that he chose John Carter cos whenever we're in the cinema waiting for the cinema hall to open, we like to look at movie posters on the wall and he always said jokingly that the giant elephant-like monster in the John Carter's poster really look like Stewart, a friend of ours. I know right, jahat bah him. Haha!  The cinema hall was full, full of high school kids, teenagers, parents and their small ones. Well, it's a Disney movie right!

To be honest, I'm not really fond of the movie simply because the storyline doesn't suit Disney at all. The movie just doesn't make sense in terms of the message or the moral value that Disney always portray in each of its movies. But I did feel pity for Sola, the daughter of Jeddak Tars Tarkas ( Jeddak means King/leader in Mars language). Why? Watch the movie and you'll know why. No spoilers! :D
I also have issues with the choice of costumes for Dejah Thoris. I was quite stunned with all her outfits and I keep asking myself "am I watching a Disney movie?" cos seriously, everything that she wore are intriguing. I wanted to show some pictures of how vulgar the costumers were but I couldn't find any and with that, you have to watch the movie for yourself. Would I recommend to watch this movie? Hmm.. No, you should just download it but if you're happen to go to cinema and there are no movies that seem interesting to you then why not if you have the money and time to kill. Btw, Taylor Kitsch who played John Carter is really HOT!! I think he resembles Johnny Depp a bit. *grins*

After the movie, we went back to Kingfisher cos we have no other plans and it was really hot outside. We dropped by at a market to buy some grocery and then to his aunt's home and guess what, le boyfriend cooked dinner! Although it was a simple dinner but for me, it's really sweet of him. I mean really, a guy who cooks for his girlfriend is a HUGE TURN ON! I can't help but to imagine being his wife, living and he would cook and do house chore for me. How blissful my life would be if we ended up being married. Well, I can pray for it, isn't it? Amen. After the humble dinner, we ended up watching more movies on his laptop and I fell asleep in his arms. When he woke me up, it's 10.30pm already and that means I have to go home. It's never easy to be apart with someone we love so much, I don't think I will ever get used to that.

Have a good week ahead of you and may next week will treat you better than the last :) *crossed fingers*

Until next post,

au revoir!

A quick update on my last weekend.

Last friday was university's annual dinner which was held at the newly built hotel in downtown KK, Ming Garden Hotel. Unfortunately, yours truly here didn't attend it cos I was infected with minor red eyes that caused my eyes to itch every time I tried to put eyeliner on. And in addition to my unfortunate event, I've purchased the ticket so my RM50, wasted just because of the freaking red eyes. I even bought a dress and heels for the occasion. Since the theme color of the dinner was Black and Red, I bought stuff according to that 2 colors and too bad I didn't get to wear them. But to think back, the dress actually suits to be worn for christmas so I guess it won't be a waste after all, right? :) But still, sayang bah cos it was my final chance to attend annual dinner organized by the university since I'm already in my final year and seeing pictures that were taken by my friends made me feel even more sad. They all had fun and everybody look GORG!! Even the guys look amazing as well. *sigh*

Vampire Weekend helped me to make it through last weekend :)

The next day (on saturday) was my trip to Usukan Cove Resort and my classmates and I with other 40+ of my junior spent 2 days and 1 night there. The resort is nice and it has a pretty beach but I've been to other resorts that are prettier so it didn't make me awe. The trip was okay la but since it was organized for our Travel and Tour Guiding subject's assignment, we have to be in charge of everything so that every activities went smoothly. Quite intimidating cos some of the fellow committee members didn't quite do their job well but thankfully everything went okay. It rained on the first day and we didn't get to do Sand Castle competition so we just proceed with the indoor activities. For dinner, all of us had a little BBQ and I didn't eat a lot cos I wasn't that hungry. After the humble dinner was karaoke session and singing competition but the mic wasn't functioning. So most of the participants went to bed probably because they were exhausted. Some of us remained at the dining area including a lecturer of mine playing teka-teki teda-teda and all of us ended up laughing all night. Some of juniors are really hilarious and I enjoyed spending times with them. Not until a little after 10 the maintenance of the resort sorted out what went wrong with the mic and some of them went back into the conference hall to proceed with the karaoke session. All of us finally went to bed at 12am++. On the second day (sunday), we got up approximately at 6.15am, morning exercise at 7 o'clock and breakfast at 8am ish. We have nothing much to do on second day, some went to swim and kayaking, some just take their time to relax by the beach. I managed to have a little chat with my juniors and Miss Fiona, chatting with them was fun. Even one of my juniors complimented I have beautiful sexy hair. Haha! *proud* We checked out at approximately 12.30pm and headed back to KK at 12.50pm. I slept through the whole journey and when I woke up, we have arrived near Beverly. Approximately at 1.50pm++, we finally arrived at the university.

To sum up, my weekend was exhausting but at least I didn't get to spend it at home which I always complain about and to be honest, I enjoyed it. A weekend well spent. Will post up some pictures on the next post, if I rajin. Haha! Sorry with the constant use of approximately, so lazy to think of other word to use.

Au revoir :)

I think I should just post the pictures on my photography blog so that I can update it after being abandoned for way too long!
