live a dream or live in a dream

I'm a movie buff, I truly is.
In my dad's words- a movie-addict or rather cinema-addict.
Well I can't deny that because some movies are meant to be seen in a cinema and trust me, I see films on a VERY regular basis.
So much so my family says I should invest in a cinema or own one someday.
It's a very tempting suggestion I must say =D
The thing is, the atmosphere is something I cannot create which I consider a very important element while watching a movie.
I think movie buffs out there couldn't agree more.

Some movies are for entertainment, some are for excitement, some are for relaxation etc.
You'd be surprise what movies can do to our lives.
I might literally bored to death without movies.

Recently, I've gone to see 'Inception' which kept me pondering for a while. A long while.
To be frank, I don't quite understand the meaning of 'inception' in the first place.
Like some people, I chose to see this film merely because it's listed as best movie of the year.
I mean who could possibly miss it?
So, the first thing I did was looked up the dictionary and the meaning was simple--- the beginning.
The big question then become the beginning of what? As Lynda have said, I'm not going to be a spoiler here LoL

Anyway, it's something at the end that kept me thinking.
I'm definitely not telling you what happened at the end of the story.
But maybe, maybe living in a dream isn't such a bad thing afterall.
Who cares as long as you are happy?

I thought the idea of the whole story was brilliant!
Harness dreams and steal secrets from your subconscious, isn't it CooL??!!!
And kudos to Leornardo!
I think he's got it this time.
We shall see him in the next Oscar's =)

Some thoughts

As much as I want to deny, I think I'm becoming this ridiculous person who's easily provoked by others
Be it behaviours, comments, criticism or anything at all
they can made me so angry that I want to curse
And this is an action that I don't appreciate much

It's frustrating, really...
I always have something to say eventhough I often kept these thoughts to myself
pretend to be nice and all, but, I know very well, I'm just putting on an act
this is very bad
what've become of me?
This is NOT me, I've slowly turning into a person whom I despise of

It's frightening...
sometimes I don't even know why do I have such thoughts, evil and scary thoughts
Or maybe I'm just having too much time to myself
seriously need to do something about that
things might change when the new chapter of my life starts
I have to be patient

Besides the awful transformation I'm going through, I've watched plenty of movies recently
well, one of them was the highly anticipated and debated Twilight saga- Eclipse
you might be wondering why am I choosing this particular movie to talk about
Haha! answer is easy, because 95% who watched it definitely have a word or two

Below are just my 2 cents worth, so, no offense =p

I am one of the many who possessed the complete set of Twilight saga
you must think I'm probably in love with this saga
but nope, I bought it just to see what is so great about this story when everyone was so obsessed with it and it was a good bargain on Amazon.com(not trying to advertise or anything)
most importantly, books are good for keeping(quoting my mum) and she's the one paying of course
as you can see I have nothing to lose
that was how everything begins

Fans might want to kill me if I say this, but, I hate almost all the characters in the story
Bella will be on the top of the list, Edward next and then Jacob
these 3 are easily the most stupid characters in many of the love stories that I read
I mean be realistic, we know it is just any other love story if it's without the vampires, werewolves and whatsoever

Reading the book was one thing, and seeing the film was a completely different experience LoL
the other day I was asking my family if anyone wants to watch Eclipse and I got this remarkably interesting comment from my dad
Here's what he said: " Isn't that the movie where they 'paktoh' on trees?"
in case you don't understand what 'paktoh' means, it means 'dating' in chinese dialects
I laughed so hard I nearly choke

Well, the end of the story? We all went
I didn't force my dad to go and was perfectly fine to watch it myself
I warned him about the not so exciting plot, I really did
nevertheless, he still followed with a little reluctance
he almost fell asleep in the cinema and I'm proud of him for not
It's an accomplishment dad! XD

Coming back to the movie
The lines was as cheezy and corny as before
nothing spectacular and was definitely overrated by the media
but at least, at least Edward doesn't have that painful expression anymore while kissing Bella and I thought that's hell of an improvement LoL
I would appreciate if Robert Pattinson can speak faster though, the Edward's speaking tempo was kinda strange
the only selling point of this movie might be Taylor Lautner's body
werewolves were cute and might make great pets =p

I pitied the parents sitting in front of us
they thought it was some kind of vampires and werewolves horror
and there were a few awkward scenes for their seemingly young children
the funniest part was they finally gave up explaining and ask their children to sleep LoL

All in all, it's entertaining (not exactly a suitable word to describe a love story but I did laugh alot)
one more to go, heard it's gonna be two parts
I guess I just need to finish off what I've started

Here's a little suggestion for those who haven't see the film
if you are just like me who's watching it for fun or even a huge fan of Twilight saga that care less about the definition of a good movie then, go for it
if you have not read the book or watch the previous parts or merely hate it then, don't go

I always thought movies are to enjoy not to create miseries

Look at yourself before criticizing others

I'm not a football fanatic
the truth is I always thought it's quite idiotic for 22 human beings to go after 1 ball

However, World Cup definitely interests me
I like to watch certain teams play to be precise
and nope, I don't think Messi is cute or Fabregas nor Torres is hot and I definitely hate Villa's style
Ronaldo is not my cup of tea and Kaka should get a hairwash though he does look very cute to me
what I am saying is, their looks really is not the main point but rather a plus point

But, as World Cup is approaching the end, my patience has also coming to an end thanks to the male supporters who claimed to know EVERYTHING about football and who literally discriminate female supporters

I do admit that I know almost nothing about football, you may think it's very silly for me to say this
but what I really mean is who says you need to know everything about football to watch it?

Have you ever ever heard of FREE WILL?
So what if some of the female supporters are watching for the sake of cute faces or hot bods?

Give them a break!

Don't tell me males don't look at hot chicks and be blinded by those pretty faces with hour-glass figures
I'm not saying ALL the time, but, definitely MOST of the time

Please do not pretend to be so freaking rational when it comes to football
Female supporters have every right to choose who they want to support based on whatever reasons as long as they are happy

So why do you care?
Let me tell you, you have no fucking right to criticize them just because you think other teams are better in terms of 'football' skills

Will you stop being so immature and discriminate female supporters because they are not supporting your teams or "know nuts" about football

And one more thing
if you think you are so good at football stuff and think you can do better than the players then prove it
If not, please SHUT THE FUCK UP!

I rest my case.
