When a hopeless romantic like me watching chick-flicks..
[random] RIP,Enke.
[listening to] jibun kakumei by miyavi
Firstly,to be honest,I'm not a chick-flick fan.'Chick-flick',well,the genre doesn't appeal to me since
forever because I always have the mindset of the 'predictable' storyline..well,it does happen for some movies,doesn't it? Okay,you could safely assume that I'm a lil bit skeptical when it comes to happy endings..or a 'happily-ever-after' thing.
Alright,alright.I obliged this time..because this friend of mine loves chick-flicks.And I thought it was a good idea to distressed myself by having a good laugh.And I got to feast myself over some hottie eye candies.
Okay,scratch the last reason.So I said to her that day,"Movie marathons uh? Yeah,why not?" There you go,I ended up watching these two movies with her.
May contain spoilers.Don't proceed if you don't want your popcorn-munching session to be spoiled!
What is the title of the movie,Angela? The Ugly Truth.
Alrighty,which character(s) that I will see the most throughout the movie? Abby (played by Katherine Heigl) is a successful career woman,only to found out that her position is being threatened by an unknown guy,Mike (played by Gerard Butler,yum yum).Occasionally,Abby's beau,Dr. Colin (played by Eric Winter) appeared in some scenes.
Okay,cut the crap,Angela.What can you summed up after you've done watching it? How am I gonna put this? Uhm,basically,its a battle of the sexes in the beginning.It's a 'he said,she said' later after that.After I watched this movie,back in my mind says,"Yeah,the truth is indeed ugly after all..and truth hurts."
Wanna know why I said that? Well,because I have seen it happened.In front of my eyes,to the very least.Alrighty,on the brighter side,well...call me crazy if you want to,but I would love to hang out with Mr. Gerard Butler if I had the chance.A nice chat over some Starbucks sounds like a good idea.Or he could teach me to dance the salsa,heheh.
What do you think of the movie poster,Angela? Don't let the poster fooled your first impression,dear.(By the way,this is my fave version of the poster.)
So,what will you recommend for further watching,Angela? Hmm,by any chance if you're a softie at heart,a secret romantics..and/or just can't get enough of Mr. Butler,I would say 'PS: I Love You'.Okay,I know you would go,
"Wait a sec,Angela..you claimed that you're not a chick-flick fan,and yet you're recommending one!" I was sorta 'watched' that movie.In a way,really.The same friend of mine had read the novel,seen the movie adaptation,and owned a copy of the soundtrack.So,she sorta told me on the stories beforehand.
..owh,and also this one.
What is the title of the movie,Angela? The Proposal.
Alrighty,which character(s) that I will see the most throughout the movie? The focal point of this movie are Margaret Tate (played by Sandra Bullock),and her assistant Andrew Paxton (played by Ryan Reynolds,yum yum.) Oh yeah,I must include the jack-of-all-trades,Ramone (played by Oscar Nunez).He's everywhere!
Okay,cut the crap,Angela.What can you summed up after you've done watching it? To be honest,I'd prefer this movie more than The Ugly Truth.Why? It's because the chemistry between Margaret and Andrew is just..so awesome and amazes me.They're so cute,bubbly and goofy when they're together!I would love to experience the same kind of chemistry too.Heheh.
What do you think of the movie poster,Angela? Her pose looks like a dare to me. Is it okay for a woman to do the proposing job? What do you think?
So,what will you recommend for further watching,Angela? Speaking of
fantabulous chemistry,I think I ought to recommend some of my fave on-screen couples.They've nailed it,and I love it!
Miss Kim Makes 1 Million (also known with other numerous English titles)
I think some of you (Korean drama fans) out there never heard of this series.Although it is not as famous as Full House,but,this is the only drama series that I've
managed to watch till the end.Yup,I'm so glad with the fact that the storyline isn't excessively predictable (and cliché).
Money is a SRS bzness in this series.
V For Vendetta
Hold on,Angela.This movie's neither romantic,nor romantically comedy.Yeah,I know,I know.V and Evey just
pwns,seriously.And they don't have to 'sleep together' just to prove 'it all'.Yeah,I find that 'consensual sex scene(s) bullshitz' are getting annoying.By the way,the snapshot above is one of my fave scenes *giggles*.
Bringing Down The House
This one is hilariously funny.Indeed,I had a great laugh...hello,it's Steve Martin and Queen Latifah,guys! What more could you ask for?

[listening to] parody of "abracadabra" by 2PM & 2AM
I don't really know what had really happened actually,but I gotta resolve on the last resort...reformatting my Itachi (yup,I named my laptop after Sasuke's brother).
It happened sometime a couple of weeks ago..hmm,it must be from my Facebook or something.
Dang those some of my friends..I felt like....(insert a random violent horrifying toture here). *sigh*
I wanted to do it soon,but I'm actually broke.Haha.I couldn't afford to buy an external hard disk to temporarily store my precious collection (animes,games..yup,you know those stuffs)
My finals' started last Saturday..and to my fellow classmates,all the best to you!

He loves his coffee with some soap.

[listening to] paradox by the trax
This particular dream doesn't involve any (mis)adventures with some certain hot male celebrities,like my
first three encounters,but I'd like to share with you guys as I thought this one was extremely bizarre...or should I say,funny? By the way,this was happened on early of August.
Alrighty,it started out like this.I received an invatation for a coffee party over my friend's house.These friends of mine were none other than my real-life male classmates during my studies at the university.
Err,I can't recall how many of them actually...hmm,probably at most 10 that I can clearly remembered.These boys are not your average boys,okay.It seems like they lived together in a very dazzlingly beautiful house.
"Oh my.."
Yup,that was my reaction when I stepped into the bachelor's lair for the first time.I never knew that they lived a high-class life! The house that they lived in is almost similar to that house in the Korean drama,"
Full House".The first thing that comes through my mind is those uptown boys in Gossip Girl (although I didn't watch that series religiously).I was greeted by one of them.
"Thanks for coming,Angela.You know that how rare it is for us to gather in an occasion like this."
"Oh yeah,that's so true.Nice house,by the way.You guys are surely good at making money!"
"Heheh..thanks!"
That boyish grin shows up on his face,like he always did in real life,heh.After a while,most of the guests had arrived.And being a good sport I am,I volunteered to help to serve the coffee! And so,I went to the kitchen.
Coffee mugs were arranged nicely on the dining table.The whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of the freshly brewed coffee from each of the mugs...and as I'm a highly-caffienated-coffee-lover,that moment was absolutely heavenly! After that,the friend who greeted me earlier walked in.
"Err,Angela..could you do me a favor?"
"Oh yeah,sure.How can I help you?"
"Can you put this into my coffee?"
He took something out from his right pocket,and handed it to me.
What? You drink coffee with a bar of soap? Yup,I was holding a bar of bath soap,blue in color.And nope,it's not the soap you used for your laundry.I was giving him the look..like,seriously?
"I'd always have this with my coffee..seems like I can't live without it."
"Uh,okayyyy.....I never knew that."
"Uhmm..just grated it a little.The grater is in the top drawer."
"Okay-dokie.Your coffee's coming up!"
I walked towards the kitchen drawer in an instant.
.....
he drinks coffee with grated soap? This is sooo weird.I wonder how does it tasted like,though.

What I've seen last Raya.
[random] ho hum...busy on the weekends too!? Geez.
[listening to] side by travis
When I found out that this one was based from a Korean movie,I got this one kinda mixed-feelings, ya know.Well,east-to-west adaptations...it's like you're having a large bowl of your favorite ice cream in front of you, and you want to experiment it with different kinds of topping(s). For me, I'll pretty much accept anything yummy as long it doesn't contain any vanilla or strawberries. Whether your ice cream will be more tastier with the 'works',or you should let it untouched..it's up to your tastebuds.
The Uninvited wasn't the first east-to-west adaptation I've watched.In fact,the first ever,was The Grudge,based from
Ju-on.I really,really,really love Ju-on because I could always relate my thoughts with these quotes (pardon me,I can't remember who said this),"
see the horror as an art".Oh,if you haven't seen Ju-on or you would like to explore some eastern horror genres,I'd recommend it.As in The Grudge,I was a lil bit dissapointed because the focal point of the movie is the
nanny itself (and other irrelevant characters,mind you).No,no,don't get it wrong.I love Sarah Michelle Gellar since Buffy,The Vampire Slayer and Cruel Intentions.Ugh,did I just mention that I got mixed-feelings?
As for this review of mine (and more to come,we'll see), I won't come up with 'out of 5 or 10 stars' or 'plus/minus' thingy.All of my opinions are spontaneous,so yeah.Just sit back,and enjoy yourself.
Hur hur.
May contain spoilers.Don't proceed if you don't want your popcorn-munching session to be spoiled!
What is the title of the movie,Angela? The Uninvited.
Alrighty,which character(s) that I will see the most through out the movie? Pale-looking Anna (played by Emily Browning),who looks like the younger version of that singer,Sophie Ellis-Baxtor,her spunky older sister,Alex (played by Arielle Kebbel) that resembles the younger Jessica Alba.Besides that,their father's girlfriend,Rachel Summers (played by Elizabeth Banks) and her aura seems to tell me that she is some kind of a career woman that is trying to adjust her new role as a housewife.
Okay,cut the crap,Angela.What can you summed up after you've done watching it? One of the important things that I have learned..please be careful of your activities behind the door.Especially,if you're involving with some sinister,wrongdoings.If you realized that your actions will cause harm-of-any-kind to your love ones in the future..remember,it is your fault at the first place.Alrighty,alrighty..who am I blabbing on your freedom and rights.It's just that,if you can't resists it,just go ahead and do it somewhere far,far away.To a deserted island or something.Don't forget that someone might peep through the keyhole(if your room door has one,duh)..and the rest,they say,will become your nightmare.
What do you think of the movie poster,Angela? Like,
seriously,I was wondering what is the connection with the movie.
So,what will you recommend for further watching,Angela? Hmm,I think I'll proceed with the original version,"The Tale of Two Sisters" (a.k.a "Changhwa, Hongryon").Maybe I'll get a different perspective.Or learn something new.

that's her
Angela.My b-day is on February 8,which means I'm a
wacky Aquarian.I'm a Computer Science major and that explains why I can't live without coffee and the internet! Oh yea,music eases my soul.Although I'm a loyal fan of
Evanescence,Fort Minor,Linkin Park,Within Temptation & Clazziquai Project,I'm pretty much open to any genres,so you can't even predict what kind of music that I'll hooked up to,next week or even the next day.I'm now an avid jazz fan.I know,you'll be trying to figure out how on earth can rock music and jazz can go together? (Oh,if you have the answer,do tell me about it.Heheh.) Fascinated with the fact I think a lot,or it's just an indicator that I'm obsessed with new ideas,it's actually an excuse for me to bring my laptop around.
Even if Emily the Strange claimed that she's an anti-cool,to me,that
IS cool.Because of that
I'm going to keep wearing black until God creates a darker color,haha.I'm a hopeless romantic,so if you ever seen me around,I'm the one that would skipped the romance novel section in any bookstore,yawning at any romance flicks,and cringe at the overloaded mushy love songs.Yup,like that.
My addictions are further explained: fanlisting and Adobe Photoshop.On my joined of the love/hate of my fandoms,just check out that section in my blog.On the other hand,I have this craving on graphic designing whenever I'm down or deeply stressed.Believe it or not.And yes,I'm your regular otaku-girl that loves her manga collection,watching animes and playing computer games.
