Movie Review

This month is definitely a movie month for me. Six shows in a row. I can’t believe it! Haha…

The first movie that I watched was The Adjustment Bureau. I wouldn’t say this movie is very nice but it is special. The message that the director wanted to convey through this movie is very meaningful. Don’t give up easily. Don’t feel that it’s destined. Fight for the things that you think are worthy of. In short, live up your dreams!

 

The second show was Big Mommas. This is a hilarious movie. If you’ve watched the previous edition before, you should know it. But this time with the appearance of his son. You can laugh all the way through the show. But the ending wasn’t that good. It didn’t live up to my expectation. Anyway, the humorous part of the movie was enough to entertain me.

 

Next show, I Am Number Four. No doubt, the main actor is good looking. Haha… The story line was kinda special but the bad people look very scary. The ending seems like there would be another continuous show on it. This movie is very action-packed plus a bit of romance.

 

Unknown wasn’t in my to-watch-list because it didn’t attract me. However, my friend recommended it and so we went to watch. No regrets. This movie is nice and it would kept you wondering what’s the real situation behind all the incidents. Then, you’d be eager to continue watching it because you want to know the truth.

 

This is highly recommended! World Invasion. You cannot rest throughout the whole show. It’s always filled with surprises and you wouldn’t know what will happen next. You’d feel like you are part of them battling in the war.

 

I watched this show yesterday with my family. We brought the kids along because we wanna let them know the importance of parents. But I doubt they understand the movie (>_<). Anyway, this cartoon is nice. Disney production has never failed me.

I’m lovin’ it!

By the way, I’ve learnt how to make sushi! It was fun! ^^

Happy Birthday To Me

I know my birthday has passed long ago. The reason of writing this post is not to show out anything special about my birthday.

I feel that as I’m getting older, celebration is getting lesser. This year only my family and my best friend, Tse Hwei made the effort in celebrating for me. I’m very grateful because no matter how busy they are, they actually find time for me even just a simple dinner and movie. ^^

 

It’s time for self-reflection.

Just Do It!

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not advertising for Nike. Don’t you think this phrase is powerful? In a sense that if you dare to follow.

I came across this song and a phrase quoted by my friend in FB.

“Dream what you want to dream;
go where you want to go;
be what you want to be;
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want to do.”
Quoted from Dr. Choong Kwai Fatt

Most people tend to choose the path that is made ready for them. We would go for the safer side, a path which we thought would give us a better future. Most people sacrifice their dreams just to take this path, thinking that their dreams are vague, hard to chase, grey future, not a smooth path, or even unobtainable.

But most people don’t realize their true potential. Because they just don’t believe in themselves. Restricting and limiting yourself is like putting a big rock in front of you that stop you from going further. Then, you turn to an alternative road which you may not really like. Confidence is an important element in supporting your belief towards your ability.

Since I was young, I was being brought up in the way that a typical family would do. Go to school, get good result, obtain scholarship, receive a degree certificate, find a good job, earn money and build a family. It seems almost like a routine for me. And I believe I’m not the only one who is being brought up this way.

It’s not a bad thing to have guidelines in our lives so that we know the direction of the place that we are heading to. But those are just guidelines. Not the perfect answer to your life’s journey.

There are also numerous successful people out there. These are the people who dare to take the risk. Who dare to do something different. Who dare to follow their dreams. Who dare to say, “Just do it!”

I want to be one of them.

3 In 1

This will be a “rojak” post because there are 3 different stories to be shared which happened to me in a day.

First, catching up with best friend by having even a short conversation with him is satisfying. Have you ever come across a situation where you feel that you have strong feelings for your best friend? Perhaps this experience might not happen on you but on the people around you. If you have, how would you react to this situation? Personally, I think relationship will be at its best when best friends remain as best friends forever. This is the optimum level of relationship. That’s why falling in love with best friends is a forbidden act for me. Is not that I’d purposely force myself not to love him/her, but I would avoid any situation that would induce this to happen. I feel that it’s easier to share openly with best friends and it’s happier spending time with them.

I started to learn swimming yesterday. It was really difficult. The fear of drowning and putting my head into the water is an obstacle. However, I managed to float. I think I need to overcome my fear first before I can really learn to swim. Anyway, it was a good experience and I was happy getting to soak myself in the swimming pool. Thanks to my patient friends who were willing to teach me. ^^

Last, I just came back from dance rehearsal. The performance is tomorrow night. Everytime when I get to perform, I’d be very excited. Even how hard the training was, I’m really happy. I’m wondering if I took the road not taken, what my life would be now? Or if I’m going to take the road not taken, what will my life be? Sometimes I’m really caught up with myself, my desire. I want to perform my very best in everything I do. But this requires time to develop and practice it. Sometimes I have to forgo something because of another thing. One thing that saddens me is that I’ve neglected song composing when I’m getting busy with academics and activities. How I wish I would have another song of my composition to be performed for everyone to listen.

No Limit!

I always thought I’m just a normal person (I’m still a normal person). I never thought that I actually can do something beyond my expectation. I’m referring to MIX challenge. MIX is a business challenge competition requiring us to solve real-life problem for Sunway Lagoon to sustain it’s customer loyalty.

At first, I have no intention to join because I thought I’m not that good and creative enough and any idea that comes out from my brain would be just a normal idea which everyone can think of.

But now I really appreciate my friend, Samm a lot for forcing encouraging me to join in the first place. So I got together with Katherine (another best friend of mine who was being “forced” by Samm to join), Sok Kim and Mooi Fong to form a team. We didn’t expect that we’d be able to make it to the final and that surprised us a lot when we received the news.

Top 8 teams were chosen among 28 participating teams. Since we made it to the final, we decided that we must do our best to win the cash prize (money is a motivation). Unfortunately, we didn’t win because our idea wasn’t greater than some other teams.

I’m a bit disappointed which I think is normal that every team that didn’t win would feel so. However, I’m very satisfied with it because it made me realize my true potential. The experience is really priceless.

Unconsciously, I always drew a line in everything I do, limiting myself only to that line. I never thought that I could actually exceed that line. I believe everyone has his/her true potential which is not discovered yet by him or herself. It really depends on your mind a lot. You can reach as far as you want if you are persistent enough and strongly believe in it. Again, this reminds me of Law of Attraction which I neglected sometimes.

Challenges is there to make us climb higher!

My Beloved Teacher

The first person who wished me. Miss you. Take care! ^^

His departure left a big impact on me…

I just couldn’t hold back my tears. I still appear normal when I go to class but not when I’m at home. All of a sudden I just feel sad. I just want to be with my family.
