*movie review* Dream House

Last night we watched this:

it was by recommendation from Afiq Shukor, after watching this trailer:

it stars Daniel Craig, whom of course you know well through the latest James Bond installment(s), (unless you're undergoing training to make roadside bomb from a CIA-trained pseudo-extremist in an intricate cave network in Hindu-Kush) as the main character, Will Atenton

(picture related but irrelevant)

The movie revolves around James Bond Will returning to his (supposedly newly-bought) home from an espionage mission after quitting his job as a publisher.

as the story unravels, Will, his wife Libby (played by Rachel Weisz) and two daughters soon discover that there was a cruel murder involving a whole family had once occurred in the house. Shockingly the suspect was the man of the family himself, and he was later caught and sent to a mental institution due to the fact that he wasn't able to stand trial. Crowd may begin to experience shivers (really? idk. i don't) when Will later found out that the man, identified as Peter Ward, has been released by the institution and now roam free.

Will, hellbent on curiosity (like the bunch of Emo-Goth punks you'll see in the early third of this movie) went on to seek truth behind the whole incident shrouding the house, audience will be introduced to his new neighbor from across the street, Ann Patterson (Naomi Watts) who herself apparently facing troubles with her ex-husband over the custody of their teenage daughter. She however was not keen to discuss about what has happened in the house, although appears to be friendly and approachable to Will.

(Did I mention that she also looks hotter than Will Attenton's wife? Somehow she is, yeah. This fact may be important, folks! :7)

Halfway through the movie, you may relate it to any other psycho-thriller you've watched; but there are twist and turns that'll keep you guessing till the end.

The main drawback however was that the movie was quite short, not much character development was seen. and also the fact that MBO Kuching started showing it five-God-damned-minutes-earlier-than-schedule.

if you are into psycho-thrillers, this may be one of the movie you want to "download and watch with friends on your laptop" (according to Teo Sir Kit). but it might help keeping your mind rolling should you are currently doing psychiatric posting. #LOL

Syafiqah and Renuka, don't worry, no flesh-eating psychopaths found their way into the plot. Because the only one that we knew is this guy:

"I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti, and topped it all up with your good-night's sleep as dessert"

"Berapa bintang ko bagi Megat?? :D"
"3.5/5"
"oh..erm..ok la tu"

P/S: Afiq, don wory, it still is a nice movie. hehe

Pirate Heart

lately ni hati dan perasaan agak mellow. jadi best layan lagu slow2.
dan dalam masa yang sama, aku suka tengok section 'hari ini dalam sejarah' kat wikipedia.

so aku usha2 tgk org2 yang lahir pada hari berkenaan

contohnya, 22 September

aku jumpa nama ni..

so gi la tgk wiki page die.. dan youtiup..

eh layan la pulak :D

'Coeur de pirate' means 'Pirate Heart' en francais. her real name is Béatrice Martin

she's a Quebecois, by the way :)

p/s: korg pernah dgr kot dia ni b4 dis. femes la gak apparently

go, green, go!

*entry ini mungkin berbau keropok lekor berusia 2 bulan dalam fridge 302, jika hidung anda extra sensitif. tapi niat saya murni :D

sekarang ni aku posting psychiatry. jadi kena ulang alik ke Hospital Sentosa yang jaraknya lebih kurang 12KM dari hostel aku. kdg2 lepak sampai petang. kalau nak drive balik petang2, bole "jama" asar-maghrib beb :D

so kena lepak solat dulu kat Masjid kat Kem Penrissen

satu hari ni aku lepak kat sana, aku parking, nampak pokok2 bertanda..

aku tengok signboard tu...

and i think to meself (tibbeehhh tuka bahasa..), how many trees have he planted during his tenure as the CM? ho many trees have he planted in his entire life?

how many trees have we?

go green, drive prius just go green :)

kisah meng-gabra-kan di petang hari

tadi lepas kelas aku g Giant, cari gas cartridge untuk stove aku. tapi Giant x jual. hampeh. redah punye redah, aku jumpa kat Everise BDC. rm 6.90. cila*ak. bedal jela. janji bole masak. pastu aku balik, terus g jogging. balik jogging aku nampak Taufiq "Athrun" Zaaba tengah mengemas dapur. muka Serius Gila. aku tegur x jawab. gabra sat la aku

tadi tengahari aku balik hostel jap, dan sementara tunggu nak pegi kelas balik aku pun cuci la sikit2 brg2 kotor kat sinki tu. tp x sempat kemas abes la, kalau nak kemas abes, x g klas la aku. klinik mane nak bagi MC untuk penyakit "Kemasdapurosis"?

so bila aku tengok Athrun Zaaba klentung-klentang kmas dapur cuak la gak aku. dia hangin ngn aku ke? siap tupperware kuih raya yang aku stack nak basuh (tapi aku x basuh-basuh sebab aku seorang pemalas yang kritikal) pun dia basuh. aku sampai postpon nak masak, lepak tgk tv ngn Aai Slamat jap.

tapi lepas kemas, dan sebab aku dah lapa, aku pun masak la gak. lpas tu baru Pandaimasak Ku Akhmal D.O. (Dapur Officer) join masak gak. bila Athrun Zaaba tegur aku sebab mayonis yang aku pakai buat coleslaw berbau aneh, baru reda sikit anxiety disorder aku.

(wajah dapur kami setelah dibelasah ZGMF-X09A Justice)

agaknya sebab minum kopi banyak sgt, tu yg anxious manjang aku ni. oh ya, tu pun salah satu biological cause tu, tp xtau la ape nasib ko kalau ko jawab camtu depan Prof. F.

p/s: 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine adalah nama IUPAC bagi caffeine :D

mai new roommate

aku dapat rumet baru. 1st year baru masuk. 'femes' la gak budak ni (atas sebab yg aku saje xnak bgtau kat sini). femes mcm Heri Poter 1st day kat Sekolah Ilmu Hitam Ketuat Babi. (for the same reason aku mmg kena maintain x semak bilik. haha!)

the peculiar thing is when ppl kept asking me, "mamat tu lembut/kopab ke?" (maybe muka dia cerah sket la dari average student laki kat sini, but idk really) tapi seriusli, apehal nak kena tanya soalan camtu is beyond mai comprehension. kalau lembut, ko nak buli ke? nak simpan buat jambu ke? saje nak buat bahan mengutuk ke?

itu saje aku nak rant. sekian, terima kasih.

p/s: x, dia memang senyap x banyak cakap. at least x mengutuk orang sana sini lepas tu xbole handle kalau ko lak kena kutuk

why i love FB privacy options :)

i really appreciate the (not-so) new status privacy options.

it allows the 'passive-aggressive' personality in you to lash out specifically-targeted hyperverbial insult at certain people, without exposing your insanity to unrelated personnel, and without the aimed individual even knowing
