Way overdue. Sat in a TextEdit file for sometime. Not going to tag another 5. This has to stop somewhere, right?

Rules of the game:
1. Post 5 weird/random stuff about yourself.
2. At the end, list the names of 5 people whom you want next to do this, and leave a comment "YOU ARE TAGGED!" in their blog and tell them to read your blog for rules.

1) I write letters but I don't always send them out.

2) I moved every year when I was in the States, because the shower did not always have hot water.

3) I like an extravagant Italian meal at Il Velato when I am feeling down.

4) I have a missing molar because the dentist mistook my wisdom tooth as a new molar.

5) I have some mild symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder, self diagnosed.

Grammys 2007

I prefer Beyonce's performance at the Academy. But this is terrific too.



Can't really remember when was the last time I heard her songs.

张韶涵 - 隐形的翅膀

new york haircut

I like her voice. And the message of the song.
每一次
都在徘徊孤单中坚强
每一次
就算很受伤
也不闪泪光
我知道
我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞
飞过绝望
不去想
他们拥有美丽的太阳
我看见
每天的夕阳
也会有变化
我知道
我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞
给我希望
我终于
看到
所有梦想都开花
追逐的年轻
歌声多嘹亮
我终于
翱翔
用心凝望不害怕
哪里会有风
就飞多远吧
隐形的翅膀
让梦恒久比天长
留一个
愿望
让自己想象

Dreamgirls

new york haircut


I only got interested in Dreamgirls after seeing Beyonce's performance at the Academy. Man, she is awesome! I did not know she can sing so well. Maybe Beyonce stood out because of the contrast against Jenifer Hudson. Jenifer exposed a weakness - her lack of experience singing live. And she needs to have more variation in her techniques. Quit that shouting.

I bought tickets for the 7:20 pm show at Cineleisure, but was caught up with work last minute. I only managed to leave the office at 7:15 pm. It was raining and cabs were scarce. Anxious, I tried to call but the line for Comfort was engaged. (6552 1111 and 6552 2222, right? Why is the network always busy when I call?) Eventually, I managed to hail a cab at 7:25 pm. I dozed off during the ride - I guess work was mentally draining today; I was so worn out. When I reached Cineleisure, I woke up flustered, paid hurriedly and ran to the cinema, only to realize that I left my brolly in the cab. Darn!

Anyway, the movie was great - but only if you can appreciate their style of singing. Jenifer Hudson sang pretty well in the movie. I still have the same complaint. Her techniques were so repetitive that her climax in each song, did more than delivered a punch. It battered, whipped, flogged, and kicked you; it dragged you all around the town and finally crucified you at the town square. Her performance got boring (and perhaps irritating as well with all that screaming) after a while. But she has potential - if she were to be more creative in future. I thought Beyonce really showed her prowess. She handled her songs with power not lesser than Jenifer Hudson, she had a nice tone, and she crafted her performance more artistically. I was rather moved by the climax in her song.

Of course, it should not be too much to ask a singer to act a singer. Still, they were still quite natural before the camera. Eddy Murphy's performance made me chuckle a few times. I thought it was refreshing to see him in a role that is not slapstick. Oh, I heard another good voice - Keith Robinson.

There is still Hope

I am thankful that there are still honest and righteous people around. I left my wallet at the coffee shop this afternoon. The duck rice uncle brought it all the way from Beo Crescent to my home. He told my mum that another customer almost took the wallet away, and he stopped the customer. The money's gone, but the wallets and cards are intact. I am grateful nonetheless.

I helped a friend to trace and draw this. Not quite my usual style, but it was an enjoyable attempt nonetheless.
