harry potter and the deathly hallows

sorry, been MIA for a few days, didn’t have inspiration to blog actually.

today, jie-en and i told ourselves we would blog about harry potter and so we shall. =D

contrary to popular belief, and the billboards, harry potter and the deathly hallows actually came out today. i know right! all the billboards lie to us, say its coming out on the 18th. ==. hahaha. i tagged along when jie-en and her friends went to watch the movie!

ok, imma give my opinion about the movie then. it was a good movie! =D. seriously, i’m like a die hard fan of Harry Potter cause i practically grew up reading the books. and for the first time, i am very pleased to say the movie followed a lot of the important details in the book. some parts were cut out, but the important details were all there! i’m not going to tell you where they stopped the movie for continuation of the second movie next july though. i would give the movie an 8.5 out of 10.

 

 

 

 

 

 

the acting was good, the actors/actresses really went deep into the characters and played their roles. even jie-en beside me was saying omg, this could be a horror movie! which is true, as the way the most of the book is portrayed as being a bit depressing and scary, as voldemort’s reign increases. the effects and magic was as good as ever. all the small details was paid attention to in the movie. all in all, i really loved the movie! they might have tweaked certain parts of it to keep the movie going though, so there are one or two different facts from the book.

my advice for those who are going to watch the movie anytime soon? read the book first. or your going to be deadly confused. or even watch the other movies before this movie.

 

 

 

 

 

cheers! spent a great day with jie-en! =D.

BTW, even if you don’t like harry potter. rupert grint is uber hot!!! *squeals*

revealed.

certain drama on twitter has left me with trust issues. trust issues in the sense that you can never anticipate a person’s true colours.

i have had a friend, he was a good friend. a friend that i imagined would remain with me until i have gone to university at least. even though i always said i didn’t trust him, i trusted him to the extent that i told him a lot of personal things. yes mark that, a lot of personal things.

so he started tweeting again after a long time getting his account. at first it was ok, like i tend to read tweets from all the people i follow word by word cause tweets are supposed to be about how you express yourself. then after while, it was nearing my exam time already. and his tweets tend to have a lot of !!!!! and ???? and woot woot and insulting artists like justin bieber (im not a fan but i wouldn’t insult him as well) and used my friends pic as his dis pic for insult reasons and all. so i thought to myself, imma unfollow him for awhile cause when i have my exams i lose my temper very easily i don’t want to suddenly get mad at him. so i did what i did, i unfollowed him. yeah i know, drama started with me partly. but then at that time i didn’t know what to do so i just did it.

i did say something to a mutual friend about how he was going to lose all his friends if he continued tweeting like that, and mayb i shouldn’t have said anything since the advice was taken as an insult. i was planning to follow him again after my exams. fate wasn’t with me i guess. he found out that i unfollowed him. and so he did what i did, he unfollowed me. it didn’t stop there.

he posted this : Feel so spacious now.just unfollow one bitch.feel not so stuffed anymore.how easy it could be!

and no it didn’t stop there. a lot of insults followed. i also don’t know why. not like i was reading his twitter. o.o. i only found out about the insults when somebody told me he was posting them. then he insulted my friend, which was the last straw. because i was moving on, and i didn’t really care about what had happened.

i posted : honestly? i'm not blaming you for everything. i admit that i did wrong as well. but calling me a bitch was just plain rude.you could have just confronted me, asked me what's wrong, instead of tweeting and fb-ing bout it.or was our friendship that meaningless that you like to assume the worst instead of asking me straight up.one of my major regrets last month? i sms-ed to ask whether you were ok, while u called me a bitch on twitter.O btw, last time im posting anything bout u on twttr, fb, blog & whatever. im surrounding my life w/ ppl who treat me as a friend instead

and i didn’t get any retaliation for a while. i assumed he was getting over it too. haha no, it was as i called it, wishful thinking. took him a few days. but he came back full force.

he posted ; Finally done with all those friendship things.not so stuff anymore!!not so oily!!!!yes!!

a few days later. he posted : What you have said about me having no friends if I keep on like this maybe right.but it's because of you and your junk only it happens so badly.you bitches!!fuck you all!! See.both of you.you two are just so miserable.not me.bitches!! Omg.stop using people's quote.this is so sick.you autism freak.and stop saying people handsome.if you like him.go tell him in front of him.but I bet you won't cause you yourself know that you don't and never will exist in his world at all  Eh bitches!!you two seriously need to change all your mirrors in your house.omg!!!

oh and 1 minute ago. he posted ; Did you not do wrong??come on.if you did not.I wouldn't have done that.fucking bitches.you just don't wanna lose in front of me.

the point of this post? its to explain what is going on. and to say to you.

i never said i didn’t do wrong. i never said it. i’m sick and tired of all the insults. yes, twitter is meant for you to express your feelings, and u gotta be prepared for what other people say. so then u should be prepared for what we have to say as well. or ur being a hypocrite. express away, i don’t care anymore. you know what i was thinking of this morning, i was thinking of calling you after the exam so we can talk about it. now i’m just thinking its pointless. since you cant seem to move on. insult away. have fun. take your time. i don’t care anymore. oh and yes i think ur very gutless for not facing me face to face instead of tweeting behind our back. i rather u confront me instead of insult me behind my back. it would have changed the circumstances a lot.

4 down, 1 to go.

quick update. refer to title, 4 down, 1 to go!

next Monday would be the final paper for SAM then its all over! boy, the year passed fast. o.o. OMG, I’M GETTING OLDDD. *ong jeng jeng and i were telling each other we’re old this morning before exam cause she got joint pain and i got butt pain. ROFLMAO*

yesterday was Econs, it was a total killer, i almost died. yeah it was that bad, but then there are people who tell me it was easy. *kills with eyes* it was ok la, like i could do it, but i don’t know whether its correct. been saying the same about all the papers though. Today was Psychology, harder and longer than expected. but then what i studied came out, so i’m a lil’ happy bout that. =),

main point of this post? i wanna wail about my fatness. *okok fat is taboo word* chubbiness then. lmao. yeah, since exams started, my eating habits have gone haywire. seriously, on the days i don’t have exams, i seep at about 2-3am studying, so that means i would eat a midnight supper snack. then i’d wake up at about 11-12am, which means im just in time for lunch. then after lunch i’d either study or laze about a bit. then if im tired i would have a nap, if i’m not i would have tea and then study until 7pm. then i’d watch top chef, eat dinner. after dinner either study or watch a bit more tv then shower all. bla bla. the cycle continues. so yeah, im eating a lottt. which makes me depressed, which makes me wanna eat more. ==. see im wailing.

Malaysian jokes

got these jokes in an e-mail that i got recently. enjoy! =)

1. Najib, Pak Lah, and Old man Mahathir were patrolling in a helicopter.

Old Man Mahathir: "If I drop a piece of RM1000 note from here, the person that picks it up must be very happy."

Pak Lah: "If I throw two pieces of RM500notes down, it will make 2 persons happy."

Najib: "If I drop TEN pieces of RM100notes, there will be 10 happy people."
The pilot murmuring to himself: "Why don't all of you just jump down from here, that will make 25 million people happy."

2. Samy V wished to enhance his reputation by publishing a series of stamps with his portraits.

1 month after the launch, Samy surveys its sales. 

Post Office Chief: "Not bad... but we got quite a number of complaints that the glue is not strong enough."
Samy:  : "Really...?"

He spits at the back of the stamp and sticks the stamp on an envelope:  "The glue seems ok."

Post Office Chief::  "Yes, but every one spits on the front of the stamp ...."

3.  Midnight, Najib went for supper and bumped into a robber.

Robber: "Give me all your money!!"

Najib was very angry: "I am the honorable Prime Minister!"

Robber: "Well, then ... return all my money."

4.  One fine day, Najib, Muyahiddin and parliament members were on the way to a meeting where they all crashed in an accident and was rushed to the hospital.

The reporters were at the hospital, the  doctor shook his head "We have done our best to rescue the PM but ..."                  
Reporters:"How about Muyahiddin?"

Doctor:"We were unable to rescue him either ..."

Reporters:"Who have you saved?"

The doctor was excited:"Malaysia is now saved!"

5.  Samy V visited the psychiatric hospital. All the patients hurray for him but there is one patient who ignored Samy.

Samy: "Why does he not welcome me?"

Doc: "He is normal today (not insane)."


6.  Election campaign time -- car load of politicians were involved in a car accident.

A farmer saw and rushed to the scene but all the passengers were dead.
He buried all the passengers.

Few days later, the police in charge found the farmer and asked where all
the politicians were and was told that they had all been buried.

Police: "Did they all die?"

Farmer: "Hmmm, Samy was screaming that he is still alive when I buried him"

Police: "Then why you bury him anyway?"

Farmer: "Because Samy never tells the truth."

no offence to anybody. just some jokes. =)

tall, dark and mysteriously stylish(the new BlackBerry Torch 9800 Smartphone)

Referring to the post title, you would assume i’m going to talk about a new guy celebrity that i find hot right, but unfortunately, you are clearly misguided. I am in fact going to talk about *drumroll pls* the new BlackBerry Torch 9800 smartphone.

BlackBerry Torch 9800 is the first smartphone with both blackberry keyboard and full 3.2inch touch screen. its like a BlackBerry combined with Iphone! awesomes much? With this new design for a BlackBerry as well, it is easy to switch between the well designed qwerty keyboard and touch screen as well as touch pad. For a smartphone user like me, i really love my qwerty keyboard as i can virtually type without looking at my phone itself, but i do miss a touch screen and all the games available to it. With this smartphone however, i would not miss out on either feature! Having a touch screen is especially convenient for web browsing as well. as i can easily switch between pages.

Not only is this smartphone jam-packed with these two awesome features in one, it also has a 5MP camera with flash, autofocus and 11 different camera modes and video modes, 8GB memory card which is expandable to up to 32 GB, it is also running the latest in BlackBerry software, the BlackBerry 6. The BlackBerry 6 has a stunning visual design and an implementation of an amazing array of enhancements, including the new WebKit-based web browser which was first previewed at MWC earlier this year.

This phone also has features that Iphone users might be used to, such as using your fingers to pinch a screen for a zoomed out effect and expand two fingers to zoom in, There is also a full-featured music player that allows you to see full album art and track listings in portrait or landscape.

It also has integrated social feeds!. ok i admit, i was a bit confused when i read this term, but after a bit of reading, i can safely assume that it means this. It gathers and filter all your social network and RSS feeds in one view and updates multiple social networks with a single post.

What about its battery life then? It contains an amazing 5.8 hours of talk time! or even 30 hours of music playback, thats about one day and 6 hours.

There was in fact a launching of this amazing phone on the 29th of October where the first 10 people in the queue only had to pay RM8 for their BlackBerry Torch 9800. After that, for the rest of the customers in line, the phone cost RM488 and RM888 respectively! Even though the event on that day started at 3pm, the lucky 10 winners started queuing at Pavilion from 2am onwards! i call that dedication. o.o  However, Celcom still has some amazing deals for those who are interested in this phone. These deals start from 3rd November onwards!

The prices that celcom is offering is amazingly affordable for the average person interested in a BlackBerry! considering its normal price is selling at RM2500.

http://www.celcom.com.my/exec/blackberry/bberry_package.php

You can visit that website for more info on the available deals. purchases made at any blue cube outlets would also include free 2 GSC movie tickets currently!

After reading this blog post, need i say more about buying this phone? If your currently looking to purchase a new phone, this is a good and reliable choice.

real news?

so i was googling for some pictures for an upcoming blog post. and i got some pictures of the oh-so-hot Ed Westwick!. so i decided to click the link right, and then i stumbled upon this website. not too sure whether it appeals to your reading preferences, but i got to say, some of the news/stories on it sure are entertaining to read.

http://valleywag.gawker.com/

such as the ones about facebook, and how a woman had to pay $1.5 mil for illegally downloading 24 songs from Kazaa.

decided to share the website cause i know for a fact that a lot of people are going through exams or are going to sit for exams soon. maybe a bit of light reading when your bored? haha. =)

(when was the last time you flew a kite eh. =p ) let’s say you meet person A. person A has friend B and C. you meet them as well. then friend B and C also have friends that you meet. and it goes on and on and on. one day you might able to meet everybody in the whole entire world! *evil laughs muahahaha* sorry, this is what you get after a 3hr maths exam. =s

3.your already online surfing the net you might as well do this as well.

you spend about 1-2 hours a day on the computer at least right?
