Exams are drawing near... assignments are piling.... I am dying... But still slacking....
I have to hate myself for that... i keep reminding myself that i do not have much time left... All the assignments are due soon... reflections, essays, etc etc... very irritating... But what am i doing? slacking... Still hovering around doing nothing... Sleeping... Facebooking... Hiaz...
Arrgh~
Seriously, i have no idea what is the criteria for Miss Singapore. Is it the Singlish language? Or is it "pretty can liao"? I dunno man... Anyway, I found the PCL spoof of the interview super hilarous and decides to share it... Enjoy!
Don't Pray Pray Ah!
The local actor turned director Huang Yiliang... His movie was not picked up and now, he have to sell his movie on dvd... So as i was saying... Met him today at AMK hub's carpark... He was selling his dvd there... Yes, at the carpark... I was initially shocked when he approached us... But felt kinda sad for him afterwards... Anyway, below is what the newspapers are saying about him...
Director's broken dream (TNP, 15/10/09)
HE followed his aspirations. But now, he says he's in debt.
Local actor Huang Yiliang had high hopes for his directorial debut Autumn In Winter.
The movie is about an emotionally unstable woman, played by model Sheila Sim, who rents out rooms in her home to strangers and then refuses to let them leave.
The cast also includes Bernard Tan, Phyllis Quek and Nat Ho.
But with no local movie distributors picking it up for a public screening here, Yiliang has now resorted to releasing the movie on DVD. He even goes to video stores promoting the movie.
Yiliang told The New Paper: 'Maybe the film is a bit too artistic, and distributors are not confident that movie-goers would watch it.' Yiliang said it would've been easier for him to make and sell a funny movie. But, he added: 'If I make a comedy, people will say I'm copying Jack Neo.'
Yiliang's situation seems to perpetuate the notion that only Jack's movies can score at the box office. Yet, critics lambast his work.
On the opposite end, Eric Khoo's movies have artistic acclaim, but fail to really draw in the masses.

Hiaz... If you see him, do support him? He tried something different but ended up like this... Anyway, the dvd is only $18... So yeah...

Uncle billy very generous ar! Dare to lend so expensive rod to us... Now we feel that bad lah~ dunno how the think broke also~ :(
Nitez for now...
OMG... i'm feeling the effects of slacking too much now... I've slacked a lot during the recess week and now i have to rush like a mad woman to get my assignments done...
I've spent saturday night and sunday rushing my lesson plan... finally i've finished it and handed it in... What's next? Test construction assignment for math and math micro teaching....
So many stuffs to do... slacked too much...
Its been 6 weeks since we started fly fishing at nee soon... We arrived at 9am, which was slightly later than usual... But its a good day! There wasn't many people around so we practically had the whole place to ourselves. It was quite boring at the start, no fishes at all... We were so bored that nik started taking photos...
After about an hour or so, melvin (the guy squatting down) showed us the good spot to fish... billy (the guy with the cap) came shortly after... We fished for a while and started striking fishes! Although we fought with the fishes many times, we only managed to hook up one each. I almost caught another one, but the line broke... So sad...
As usual, my dearie was the first to catch one... Then its my turn~! It is my first time using a fly fishing rod, which is very different from the spinning rod... But both fishes were caught by our original spinning rod... So weird...
Anyway, we practiced catch and release, so both fishes were unharmed when released back into the canal... Hopefully it will still be there when we go back next week.
(Btw, we went back after 3 days and its gone already... all kena TABAO... Hiaz...)
Stop using baits... dead or alive...
