Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over

Adventureland brings me to this :3

Adventureland

Watched an old movie today "Adventureland" (2009) and what can I say... Great! ^_^
I don't know what makes the movie great. Is it Jesse? Kristen? Ryan Reynolds or the soundtracks of the movie, but from my perspective, the whole concept of making movie just like from the 80s is superb.



Not only it shows the lifestyle from the disco era, it shows how SOME people struggled on choosing the right career in their life and in the meantime, doing part-time jobs. Affairs and friendship... and so on.. I found myself laughing from watching it too xD

So watch this amazing movie from Greg Mottola! :D

Drawings

Task one completed

Well...sure it does not look like Picasso's, but heck yeah I've finally finished it..

Vampires were on my mind on that time...so....ya...

???

Okay, so I have a few more days before the BIG results..

Hmm what am I going to do at the moment??

Desperately need some ideas... It's like I've been wasting my time for the past few months. When I looked back, I've never even accomplished in anything :( except for getting some new songs to download and becoming a succesful fashion designer x) ...... in Facebook......ugh

Well today I've watched a movie "Julie and Julia" played by Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. From that movie, I've realized that it's important to have some goal in your life. No matter how small the effect is...

So, maybe I should set some goal for myself right?? :)

I've been thinking on what to do for quite some time now.. So, maybe my first task is to paint a picture that crossed my mind at that time. That's the easiest thing that I could think of xD Task starts tomorrow..

I'll post that drawing later..

Peace~~

Valentine's Day

So, Valentine's Day is around the corner :) It seems that everyone is excited about it. Well, who do you love? Haha^^ Will be seeing lots of chocs and gifts now..

My favourite movie that I think is suitable for this day is an old time movie "A Walk To Remember". Cried at the end of it :(

What I love about this movie :

1.) The story

2.) Shane West @_@ (well who doesn't?)

3.) Mandy Moore's voice...so sweet~

4.) The idea of doing a "To-do list" in your life

5.) And this..

"Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful"

For those who haven't watched it, spare some time, grab this movie, bring your loved ones and watch it..

For those who have, watch it again if you just looking for something to shed your tears ;)

Happy Valentine's Day everyone ;)

School Activities

Wee..On Monday, our school are going to have a "Pesta Kaamatan" and "Teacher's Day"!

I know it's too late for me to say this, but I want to wish all of my teachers, a

[Glitterfy.com - *Glitter Words*]

Well, what's more interesting is, the Gun Po Cultural...(sorry, I forgot the name..) from Korea will perform on that day. I can't wait for it ^_^
Besides, there will also be an Unduk Ngadau competition on that day as well.

Love Story Meets Viva La Vida^^

Malaysia Book of Records

Our school made another entry to MBR and this time we collected the biggest amount of aluminum cans. Collecting them was not an easy task. My parents helped us a lot. My grandma too. My brother and I contributed 5.1kg.

Nevertheless, I was happy that I participated the campaign. I was one of them - creating the record. That should make me proud :)

Houses on Fire

Gil's house at right

On the 14 April 2009, my classmate and close friend, Gil was asked to go home by our teacher. At first we didn't know what happen. During recess, a friend told me, Gil's house was on fire. I was like, OMG! I hope everything is under control.

Upon reaching home, I texted my mom at work about the fire. Mom immediately informed dad and dad got the information. Fortunately, Gil's house was spared by the fire.

Gil texted me that night and informed me everything was okay. She said, "Jesus was there!" She just can't believe the wind blew to the opposite direction from her house. She believed Jesus was there helping them! Thank God!

Holy Week - Good Friday

Grandma and I
attended the Station of the Cross
in the morning of Good Friday

We came early to the church
as we know it would always be crowded

The Crucifix covered with purple cloth

I saw a man being ushered in a wheelchair. Mom told us, the man is happened to be a priest. An old retired priest. His name is Rev. Fr. Augustine Amandus and he is from Papar. Mom further informed us Fr. Amandus is the first Kadazan Priest.

Then she told me a story ;) Once upon a time, on the day of my baptism, Fr. Amandus asked my mom of my name. Mom replied "Gwynth". He then, after making a deep thinking, said "Oh! it's a name from Irish. An Irish Saint". My mom said, luckily he didn't ask how to spell my name *LOL* And by the way, he wasn't the priest who baptized me, it was Mgr. Primus Jouil who according to my mom had difficulty in calling my name *LOL*

My First Updates of the Year

Inspirational Poems

These are some of the poems that I found on the internet...^^ I love all of them, because they are inspirational poems. Try to read it :

The Person I Long To Be

The day light breaks again
Another day has begun.

But still no sleep has come.
My body is weary

My mind overworked.
I lie awake thinking

But what I am unsure.
I need to break free from the cycle I endure.

Everyday is the same and the nights are undistinguished.
I feel as though I am being pushed along with the tide

Unable to break free from the everyday flow.
This is not me I need to change, before time takes over

And I am unable to change.
I need to be freed from the grasp of ordinary

And become that person I have always longed for.
Express myself in every way, and conquer the dreams as I lie awake.

Then I may fall asleep and put my mind to rest.
Make changes in my life and help those in need.

I would like to touch everyone's life in a positive way
And leave my mark on society before I fade away.

The Last Pedal

Perfect as a rose pedal
Watch as it endures
The blooms fight for their life
As they are surrounded by knives
For what they know best
Is the blossom of their hearts
They live in the moment they open
Hopes to achieve, reside in their minds

Pedals come and pedals go
Stop to watch as they appear
Appreciate the colors and smells
Learn from them while they are here
For they will disappear
No more chances do they get
They cannot be forgiven
For they must open and if they don't
It is the end

Some will arise to the occasion
They are beautiful in every way
Every chance they get
To send sweet aroma in the air
To fill the days with colors so fair
But the life is short
Because they opened, they must fall
The fall to death
Conscious of the life they lived
Are they successful or
Do they suffer in agony
as the last pedal falls


FarAway

And the journey started with a song,
a great ballad from yesterday.
The pilgrims plight,
is and endless flight,
to the land called Faraway

On the journey he saw shades of night,
and he passed through skies of gray.
But, he stayed forthright,
as he searched for light,
and the land called Faraway.

On the journey he made countless friends,
and avoided countless enemies.
And he prayed each night,
that he'd earn the right,
to the land called Faraway.

Though, he longed for glory,
his body grew old and fray.
A soul long lost,
is the dreamers cost,
in the land called Faraway.

He lay down in a green meadow,
for he knew his time was nigh.
He relived each scene,
of his minds sweet dreams,
to the land of Faraway.

And though each breath was labored,
each heartbeat found the truth.
And he saw that life,
was both joy and strife,
in the land called Faraway.

And as the darkness took him,
his hopes were bright and gay.
For he'd be one,
with the setting sun,
and the land called Faraway.

Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds Concert

I've just watched Hannah Montana concert (in tv..), featuring The Jonas Brothers. The concert was held in Washington on Feb. 4th. It was a blast!


Miley Cyrus is very pretty in her clothes (of course..), and she sang all of her songs 'wonderfully'...especially "I Miss You" the one that made me swoon to it..

She wrote this song for her grandpa, who died a few years ago. While she sings this song, we can see pictures of her grandpa on the screen with her and family. For those who wants to play this song, you can get the guitar tabs from Ultimate Guitar..
Want to know more about the concert and songs (or even videos?)... Just click Hannah Montana


As for The Jonas Brothers, they only performed 2 songs, "When You Look Me In The Eyes" (which is my FAVOURITE song from them), and "3000". Both of the songs are truly NICE and AMAZING...! I love all 3 of them, because they are very energetic and wild while performing...you can see it from the way the crowd screamed and danced during the performance! Check out The Jonas Brothers...

Final Fantasy XIII

Okay, so most of you guys know about the new Final Fantasy series (Final Fantasy XIII)... Here's SOME information about it :

Final Fantasy XIII (ファイナルファンタジーXIII, Fainaru Fantajī Sātīn) is an upcoming console role-playing game developed and published by Square Enix exclusively for the Sony PlayStation 3 as a part of the Final Fantasy video game series. First appearing at E³ 2006, the game features a futuristic, high-tech world, and a storyline focusing on "those who resist the world".

Final Fantasy XIII is the flagship game in the Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII collection. The game takes place in the same universe as the other games, although they are not directly related to each other. Final Fantasy X-2 and Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings director Motomu Toriyama returns as the director of the game.

The concept for Final Fantasy XIII's battle system is a sysytem system stemmed from a desire to create battles of the type found in Final Fantasy XII, while adding multiple player characters to the battle. Like Final Fantasy XII, the battles will be in real time, without any random battles.

Active Time Battle makes a return in Final Fantasy XIII but works differently from how it did in previous games that used it. In keeping with command-based battles, players input commands by selection through a reel on the bottom-left hand side of the screen. Each command has an ATB (Active Time Battle) cost, which reduces the total ATB bar. Selected commands are placed on a row of upcoming moves, above the bar. As characters fight, each command is used in turn, with the current command in use turning yellow. Commands can be chained together for certain effects. The environment also plays a role in battle; for instance, Lightning (the main character) has been seen sending a soldier into a light, electrocuting him and multiplying the damage.

So...sounds interesting? Well, go on and buy yourself a new PS3! ^^

It's Been A Long Time Now..
