I'm in the Hyper lab right now, waiting for my nxt lecture. Might as well sneak in a blog i thought.
Caught some movies lately, namely Mission Impossible III, Almost Famous, Spawn and Brokeback Mountain. All 3 are pretty good movies, but i realised as i grow older i'd prefer to watch more milder but thinking stuff, compared to ur usual blockbusters. Yea so in comparision, MI3 and Spawn seemed less entertaining compared to the other 2. Guess there's only so much action that Hollywood can cook up. It's like re-hashed ideas over and over again.
Anyways, to me, watching movies is like learning a small lesson on life. Everytime i take away something from each film i've watched, and learn abit more abt myself. Like in Almost Famous, i feel for the lead character so much. So uncool, blur but yet so earnest in doing what he liked. I think i'm turning into a movie buff.
Got pretty careless lately while doing my midterm tests. Hope it doesnt translate to shitty results for me. FYI, i'm pretty anal when it comes to results. Yea, i'm the Kiasu Singaporean guy who's all out to score and outwit the ah tiongs and ah nehs. It's just a social expectation of me to do well in exams and tests. My parents, my brother, my relatives, my girlfriend, my classmates, all expect me to do well. I do not know y, but because of this there's a need for me to fulfill this expectation of pple.
Sometimes i do feel like getting by like Gab. Just do it, get the paper and fuck off. No need for good results, minimal effort is enuff, cos in the end the paper is homogeneous. Spend the time to other things that matter, like friends, hobbies, blah blah. Lead a fulfilling life rather than a results-driven one. Sounds good, but unachievable for me. It's just not gonna happen.
Y do pple like to judge music so much? Like Band A >>> Band B. Ur favourite band sux cos they cant play blistering solos like my favourite band. So much so that we become musical elitists ourselves, often ignoring other genres and other great obscure bands, and thinking that what we listen is the best and everything else is shit. Yea this kind of pple really shld just explode and die.
Alright time to go.

Yeah man music elitism is the most ridiculous thing.

But sad to say I used to suffer from that a few years ago. I'm so glad I'm free.. =D

We are all guilty of it at some point of our lives. Just have to see the light at the end of the day.
