Random updates & thoughts about Show

大家好!

Hi all...

很久没有写东西了。没时间,也没有心去写。

I haven't been updating coz I haven't had the time / energy or heart to really write larh...

最近忙些什么呢?

Updates on myself these while...

1)在学校,不外是监考,改卷,算分,还替大家把卷子都钉在一块儿,然后打洞。看,老师多好!星期一(2-2,1-3,2-7)和星期二(1-4),要记得带计算机,才可以计算分数哦!

1) In school, it's the examinations period. So as expected, I'm done with invigilation, finished marking all papers, collated the marks, painstakingly stapled everyone's scripts together (from paper 1 to paper 3 inclusive of all question papers...), punched holes for everyone... So when we get back our scripts on Monday / Tuesday, it would be really FAST and can get down to checking answers real quickly.

Anyway, if you guys don't know, Monday, I'll be seeing 2-2, then 1-3, followed by 2-7, Tuesday, I'll be seeing 1-4. Basically, each session would last 1.5hours, inclusive of giving out of papers, checking marks and answers. So do bring your calculators... Don't wanna drag too much time.

2)星期天,第二次看了《天冷就回来》。超爱的。有空,会好好做个“全程记录”!有照片为证哦!


昨晚,看了美国电影《阳光小美女》。很不完美的故事,但看起来却如此完美。我喜欢背后的故事。世上真的只有胜者和败者吗?在中间徘徊的你、我、他又算什么呢?很值得欣赏的一部好片!

2) Watched "If there're Seasons" once again on last Sunday and it was a blast. Love it love it love it. I simply love musicals and theatre performances. Ever mesmerizing. Will write an entry on it soon!


Last night, I watched "Little Miss Sunshine". Always wanted to watch the movie but never had the time. So I forced myself to finish the movie and I was really impressed by the simplicity of the story. It's so true about how imperfect our lives can be, yet we can make meaning out of it. Many lessons to be learned from the story. Is life only about winning and losing? What about those who don't win? Are they losers? Are people who lose never winners? A dysfunctional family, struggling to stay together. A little girl who has a dream. The crowd who is blinded by society norms. The family who stays cohesive til the end. Definitely a 5/5 movie! Which reminds me of Slumdog Millionaire. Another story about a simple person leading an extraordinary life. I shall go watch Juno soon.


Come think of it, all these stories seem to share common features... Dysfunctional families... Strong-willed individuals... People and things that can be found just around us... Cool beans.

3)关于小猪,罗志祥。很愤怒。对于媒介给予他的评论,我只能说,呸!当然,我不能找出任何证据,证明他的清白。但,媒体又何尝找到任何证据来给他定罪呢?人非圣贤。知错能改,善莫大焉。如果真是他错了,难道就要置他于死地吗?看到他在《娱乐百分百》落泪,我不禁为他担心。人们会当作他是在博取同情分还是被他的真心打动?我属相信他的那一类。



罗志祥也是受害者啊。他有想过自己会被出卖吗?他难道不能拥有私人生活吗?真正该被抨击的是社会上的许许多多无恶不作、欺负弱小、虐待妻儿的人呀!做为媒体人,为自己积德吧!突然我庆幸没有当记者。手握着多可怕的笔,指尖打出多么恶毒的字句啊!真是令人不寒而栗。

小猪,我挺你的啦!

3) About Show Luo. I watched Entertainment 100% last afternoon, last night and on Youtube. I don't know how the media / people would see his crying stint on his show. For 15 minutes, he spilled tears after baring his heart and soul, trying hard to defend himself and apologizing after the incident has gotten out of hand. (Go read the entertainment news / google to find out more.) Some may feel he's just trying to gain sympathy points from people. Some may feel he is Real and simply wanted someone to believe in him.


I belong to the latter. I really think he is a hardworking artiste. We are humans after all. We make mistakes. What is the big deal about this, you may ask. The big deal is, he is a public figure. So because he is 'public', he is supposed to keep his private life under wraps OR keep it untainted. I seriously don't think what he has done is so detrimental in any way. Why didn't people see it from the point that he was being betrayed? Imagine, you trust someone, pouring all your woes and eventually probably developed feelings for the someone, only to find out that everything was displayed in public. Someone decides your future for you. Someone washes your dirty linen out there. How devastated would you feel?

I feel for him. I really do. Why are there worse people out there whose news are not splashed across the newspapers? What about the unfaithful husbands / wives / boyfriends / girlfriends? What about the abusive spouses? What about the school bullies? What about the mistreated / underprivileged individuals? Come on! If the media people feel that they write what we like to read, why can't they think this way: we read what they write. If you twist facts, we won't read it either. I really hope he gets his justice. And for a record, I really hated the reporters who said how he used his mother to portray his good-boy image. I salute him for his filial piety. It's evident how he loves his mother and vice-versa. The media is plain mean to put him down when he's in the dumps right now.

Rawr. Furious.

Now that's another reason why I didn't want to become a journalist. Freedom of speech doesn't happen. Rather, we end up writing what we are made to write. Politically correct or sickeningly juicy news for the masses.

And so here I am to educate the young minds... Maybe that's a mission after all... My calling ya? Hm...

Peace out.
