Goodbye King


Michael Jackson is dead...

I am Numb....

Cant even start to process this information. Is it true?

I look through the Net and I see all the reports and news...

BBC news going through his life right now...Haix.

The King of Pop is dead....Dead and gone forever...


Now that I think about it, this man has been the reason why I do some things I do.

Without him, I won't be who I am today. I would be a different person, a different being.

From his moonwalk to his glides and energy, this was the man who inspired many around the world to out on their shoes and just dance... including me.

Makes me think about how life can change. One moment you're playing a video game, thinking about nothing in life. And next moment, your idol is gone... And you're wondering what have you done in life that makes you or your friends proud of you...

Life's way too short. And Michael lived it to his fullest.

Screw the media, screw the kids, screw the assholes and wannabes who hated him. He WAS King, will always be KING.

MJ is legend, and legends will live on, til the Sands of Time run out.

Goodbye Michael Jackson..
Goodbye Idol
Goodbye King.

We will remember you for life...


I have my answer now

The Taking of Pelham 123

Just came back from watching 'The Taking of Pelham 123' with my bro.

Thought it will be a good movie to watch, considering the fact that Denzel and Travolta are in it.

I have to say that I've always loved Denzel's acting. It is always convincing and no matter how many people are on screen, you're eyes are always pulled to him.

I'll skip the movie plot line cos you can just pick it off the net. But for a normally-hyped film, it is quite good.

The interesting part of the film does not involve the barely existent action, but rather the acting by Denzel and John. Amazing acting by both actors.

It is quite interesting to see how 2 people can build a relationship over a radio for 80% of the film's time. The tension builds up between the both, and you can see how each tries to outmanuevuer the other. Not as good as 'Collateral' though, but it was nice to see.

But I have to say that John didn't do quite a good job as Denzel. Denzel made his character believable as someone who's in the wrong place at the wrong time. And his interaction with a voice over the radio was excellent. Brilliance on his part really.

John...I love John. Don't get me wrong. But he didn't really give what he could on this. His interaction with the radio was not as convincing, and in some parts, I felt the dialogues were forced and not said naturally. In my opinion, I felt he could have interpreted charater in different way than the one he chose to portray. Play a more, calmer colder person to balance up with Denzel? I don't know. But I really liked the acting between the two.

There were other notable actors on screen, but about ten minutes in, you know they are just calefare as they disappear into the background.

Its just like 'Collateral'. I have to mention the number of very clever symbolisms they used and their references to the real world situation. Almost unnoticeable, but not too hard to spot.

Overall, this is a movie that's not made for everyone. People who love action and shooting will hate it. But if you love brilliant acting, then this is one nice film to watch.

Why Do I Even Try?

Its been so long since I blogged. Like really blogged about how I felt and everything.

So now im in the mood to really rant and I have to do it now even though I'm tired. If I don't the words will lost forever never to be found again inside this whirlwind I call me, myself and I.

And I am utterly DISGUSTED with me myself and I.

Like SO angry to the point that I am disgusted. Like If i was my friend, I would never talk to this person again. Sucks to be stuck in the skin of something you loathe to the core.

Haix. Its been one long tiring week for me. Never really had a moment to rest. Everything was work from the start. And that prevented me from enjoying myself. Filming and stuff...Grrr...

Dont get me wrong. I love to have fun. But this past 2 weeks of my holidays has been completely burnt out because of stuff. So never really had a moment to relax. That starts the chain effect.

When I can't relax or I'm over stressed, I start taking it out on people. When I really take it out on person who doesnt deserve it, it just adds to my anger.

Why get angry at him/her?

Hate myself more. Continues the chain...

Add to that the fact that I'm behind work now...as always. But I don't understand why I cant get up and do the work that I need to. Where did the drive go? Where did my passion go?

Where did I go?

Grrrr...! Angry again. Like really. I'm not feeling useless. I know I'm capable...MORE than capable...But the fact that I cant get up and do the work and get the results I want is REALLY annoying the hell out of me.

I hate it.

Today's movie marathon is when I nearly lost it. I don't know why, but all of a sudden I just zoned out, spaced out etc. I was so close to bursting and I knew I had to get out of there or else the shit's gonna hit the fan.

So I took off. Full speed around some HDB estate in Sembawang. Did good time too. Felt good to have wind rush into your face...but....

Didnt help in any way.

So I tried to include myself in conversations and try to make people laugh. Succeeded... for a while. In the end just sat down and stared at Optimus Prime transforming and kicking ass, not cheering, coming up with psuedo laughters and all.

Haix.

Question is, how long is it going to take me to get out of this slump?


Time is my God, and with him comes my answer...but even time is not on my side now...
