'tis another day..
i'm back!!! haha actually, i was back yst la. but was too tired and lazy to update on my blog (which was really my initial intention, believe me) after getting back home at arnd 10 plus. besides, i had a soccer match to catch. which i only watched half way cos i was so tired la. portugal VS mexico. the last time i checked the scoreboard it was 2 to 1, portugal. which, judging by their performances in the second half.. the score's likely to stay tt way anw. haha pardon me if i'm wrong.
oh and another reason y i didnt watch further on is cos i realized fifteen min into the 2nd half and after changing the players (portugal) two times that they weren't gg to send cristiano ronaldo into the game. xian. dun mistake me. the reason y i wanna watch him play is not cos i find him cute. sure, he is cute la. but a bit weird lking, if u ask me. but anw the real reason y i wanna watch him play is cos i've nvr seen him play before. not even when he's playing for man u. hm so ya. oh n i've got a new soccer idol. haha luis figo!! dunno y lei. he juz has this charisma on the fields. even better than stevie gerrard, i shld say. (sorry naf and ben)
ok anw the genting trip. it was fun, i guess. went to the arcades as well as the amusement park. the stuff there is kinda expensive, actually, not unlike the other places in malaysia (like johore etc), but i guess it's cos it's a tourist attraction of sorts. hm the place was kinda dirty though and i can't tell u how glad i was when i got back to singapore. first of all, the stark diff btwn m'sia and s'pore is tt the renovation sites in singapore haf at least the most basic tool - humans. seriously, the sites in m'sia are abundant but no one seems to be working there. in fact, if i'm not wrong, there was this renovation site near the passport customs that has been there for a few years alr. haha oh well. tt's their prob. and secondly, the noise at genting. sheesh. all the arcades and screams at the amusement park.. after a while, it kinda gets to ur ears and nerves, if u noe wat i mean.
but all in all, it was fun la, i guess. sure, no cute guys over there at all. and i reli mean none. (not tt my stds are high or anything ok) but ya, the rides were cool and the company of my family was nice. besides, i love the temp. i mean, it's not reli TT cold over there but i mean, 24 deg in the morn is gd. real gd. hm..
on the trip back, i got a faulty seat that bounced whenever the road got uneven. and u noe, genting's all the way on the top, so when the coach rides its way down the slopes, there're plenty of obstacles on the road. and the seat bounces like gdness noes wat. and for the first few times in my life, i got car-sick. bus-sick, i mean. hm then they played king kong on the screen above our heads. it was ok. i realized two things during the show.
first, all (ok, almost all) great men haf fallen to the bottom becos of women. like the four great beauties of China in the past, who all - someway or another - caused the downfall of their husbands who happened to all be emperors. haha. oh and then king kong comes along and gets bewitched by the beautiful ann darrow, whose real name i'm not sure. but she lks an awful lot like nicole kidman. a younger version, mb. king kong falls down frm the great building (wat's it called?) after beating his chest and bawling (ok mb not bawling. watever u call tt) repeatedly for the third time, becos he wanted to protect the poor woman. so he gets shot by the fighter planes and he falls down and down, surprisingly not causing an earthquake of sorts when he reaches the bottom. so my pt is, women rock. haha
oh and before u guys start protesting, i'd like to talk abt my second realization first. at 4 p.m. on the coach somewhere in malaysia, i realized.. that i really do like guys like adrien brody. hm or mb, i juz really do like adrien brody. i dunno y. really. actually i shld have realized it ever since the first time i saw the shots for 'the pianist' starring him. but i nvr did watch the movie before. nor any movies starring him until i watched king kong yst.
i reli haf not much of an idea (aftr thinking abt it) why adrian brody, and not tom cruise or brad pitt or orlando bloom. the closest reason and the most logical one was the aristocratic aura he has surrounding him, i guess. tt sounds crappy, i realize, but if it's not tt, i dunno wat else le. it's definitely not his lks, since i wouldnt consider him even on par when it comes to those three other big hot shots i mentioned earlier in the paragraph. it wun be fame, either, cos again, comparing to those other 3, he'll lose in this department. so really, it's smth abt him tt's mysteriously attractive. as in, he's the kinda guy (at least, to me) tt when i see his face on some poster, i wun go, 'damn but he's cute', like when i do when i see mb hugh jackman or ben foster (in case u dunno, he's the guy who acted as the rather useless angel in x-men 3 the last stand). there prob wun be tt gushing feeling whenever i c adrien brody's face, but it's juz tt - the feeling of awe, i suppose. like someone u wanna get close to but can nvr get close enough to.
