Today was filled with unexpected surprises all through the day. I'll start with morning. Well i thought I would be yet again waking up to another day of homework to complete before nightfall. But Boom. First surprise. Dad sent me an sms early in the morning before going to work. " Rui En's story on today's Life section" wow. It hit me. I've always been wanting The Monday Interview to feature her. Just hoping and hoping every week. At last! It was such a honest and sincere interview. She spilled about her troubled childhood, how she struggled against the odds to what she became today. An actress-singer who dosen't give a damn what people think and JUST BE HERSELF. Yes. people will say...i'm also being myself wat. But come on. In that industry, easier said than done. Do you know how much courage you have to garner to do that? To just stand for what you are, to not follow that whole masquerade. Its something I have loved and admired about her. To not want fame, money and that status but do it for the sole reason of wanting to entertain people. I don't know how to explain this but, i just feel that she have this very cool thing about her. Not some nonchalance. But some preternatural coolness that draws me more and more. Come on. How many can do that? The Monday Interview, where she lay her unglamorous past spread for all to critic. I hope through this sacrifice she made, people would begin to try and understand her better rather than just put her into the category of ice.
Had managed to finish a Chinese test paper and letter writing. Damn tough man. I didnt even get WTH the passage was supposed to mean. But oh wells. Have to stop complaining and procrastinating. Tmr, have to finish another paper and letter. its seriously shit man! i absolutely detest chinese!
And then went for the preview of Twilight. Which was actually the highlight of my day. Have to thank Amanda! Thanks a lot for inviting me! It was a private screening she won from Channel 5 that Christmas contest or something... I love the room. Like a GV Gold class cinema. The seat was just the next comfortable thing to my bed. And also so big! Most of all, the movie! How hot Edward was. My heart melted. Twilight. Really it was such an awesome movie. Something to be given superlatives for. The most epic romance, next closest thing to Titanic. Its been years since I've seen such an unprecedented movie. Something that left me with an inkling feeling inside me after the show.The part where Bella and Edward was at the prom, just after getting out of the car,...walking..wow..just like an evening promenade. Well actually the part where Bella just pushed him away so forcefully..goodness..that was unexpected. At first I thought Edward was a bit wierd at the beginning but it was just a while. I just love that he has this propensity in him to protect Bella. That's just an apotheosis of what unconditional love and pure love could bring a person to do. Awesome/Gorgeous. hahha...This was hilarious, after watching the movie, we went out and haha..the Twilight poster was just ubiquitous. HAhah...outside the Shaw Centre where we previewed the movie, at Lido, Outside the Building..haha..I was literally devoured with this utter sense of well-being after the movie. It made my so very boring day!
And home i went, hoping to catch a wink before getting up tmr to do homework. Went online first to catch up on RBKD stuff. and another BOOM came. Wow i seriously didnt expect it. Rui En has a new show! Great! wow. Totally unexpected.for the past few years, she only had one show a year or at the most, 2. But my goodness... first it was By My Side, then now filming The Dreamcatchers and then without a break, will continue to start filming My School Daze. wow. Within a span of 6 months. 3 shows. Goodness. I can't take it. hahah. Seriously. its actually good that its at the first few months of the year. cos if not..i won't be able to watch. Major exams on the way.. well...i hope she takes care of herself. Don't fall ill again. Have a loong way to go...shows after shows...add oil! add oil!
Now i think its time for me to hit the sacks...cos tomorrow i have to hit the books in earnest. Sigh. How i wish i could just exude this inner power in me to keep me strong through this very shitty period of life. And my feet are still aching from just now. Argh. the boots. It hurts. Guess its too small...gotta get a new one.
