真是气死人啊!!!

我越夜越气!!!!!!

真是他妈的!!!

花了一整个下午闷闷不乐,换来的只是气愤难平的夜晚!!

可恶!!! 仔仔是应该获得金钟奖的《戲劇節目最佳男主角》奖!可恨……

看!连我这个局外人/粉丝都可以为了仔仔没敲金钟而超级、超级不爽,更何况是他本人呢?!

从一开始,在金钟奖典礼之前,我已经知道仔仔是金钟奖最佳男主角的热门人选,那时就有点开心,因为我本来就是他的粉丝,所以当我知道不是他拿奖时,就替他感到可惜、失望,也有一点不爽为什么姓赵的可以拿奖。

当我冷静地想一想:嗯…可能那个姓赵的真的有点儿本事,再加上据我所看过仔仔演出的戏,大致上都大同小异,角色揣摩上没什么突破,自自然觉得可能就是这里出了问题,所以输给只演出第一部戏就拿奖的姓赵的。

可是!

当我开始看《痞子英雄》后,我真是感到惊讶不已,因为我的帅气偶像的演技大大地提升了!虽然还是有点不足的地方,譬如说哭戏方面,我不能完全融入角色的悲伤心情当中,可是其他部分我真的真的觉得他比想象中、比传闻中还要好叻!角色诠释地很好、有很大的突破!难怪他会是大热门!要是我老早就看这部戏,我想,从金钟奖那天开始我会每天咒骂呢!

一群一就是没脑、没眼睛的评审家伙,二就是受了一点好处的白痴!

在看了网站上人们热烈讨论着金钟奖的事后,我终于可以切身体会为什么自从颁奖礼结束之后,那么多人对这件事说个没完没了。现在,我终于明白了!

我虽然很想看到仔仔演出《痞子英雄》的电影版,可是如果要我的偶像受委屈地拍一部戏,那么我宁愿他罢拍,反正不是从今以后没有机会看他演戏。而且,我觉得他比我们任何一个人更不爽,因为他自己所付出过的努力,只有自己可以充分地了解。再加上我看过一切幕后花絮之类等等的短篇,可以看得出他花了很多心思投入在这部戏上,甚至花时间去帮忙“其他人”。

那个姓赵的也觉得是,还在金钟奖上公然泪谢仔仔。虽然过后姓赵的澄清自己本来是个容易哭的人,所以特地把最想感谢的仔仔留到最后。可是你知道吗?我怎么看、怎么听都觉得那个姓赵的很做作。演技太烂了啦,最佳男主角!

还有,那个姓赵的父亲更是令人倒胃口的家伙,说什么“我在我儿子致谢词时把仔仔拉起,只是想每个人看到我儿子感谢仔仔时的情况啊”。屁啦!!!那么扯的烂借口亏你还说得出口!我服了你!你这个举动,无疑是摆明了“把快乐建筑在别人痛苦上”或像是一种宣示说你的儿子是赢家!你要别人替你的儿子开心,就应该首先让别人有喘息的时间,让他们把自己不开心的情绪先处理过了,别人才能祝贺你啊!没有你的加持,摄影师也会自动自发地把镜头往仔仔那里放特写,有必要麻烦你这位“天下父母心”帮摄影师做他的工作吗?

拿奖是件人人都爱的事,真的是那么看得开的话,也不是在宣布成绩后那一瞬间,就能立刻放得下来。可恶……分明是不安好心,存心找揸的家伙!

对啊,我是有点偏激,所以我的论点已经是可以说是“不论姓赵的说什么、做什么,都可以变成令人憎恨的事”,可是有些事,只有他们最清楚。现在报纸上描述那个姓赵的负面新闻,虽然不至于让我开心,因为我只觉得他又有新闻上报,曝光率又增加了,可是至少有一点点让人幸灾乐祸。反正他要成名嘛,机会不就来了嘛。现在他不用特意挤几行眼泪,就可以轻而易举地上报了。

哼!当我看到报道说姓赵的回加拿大“休息”时,我就有几个想法:
一、又是装无辜、装可怜的说法。说什么压力大,内分泌失调……
二、老爸的招数。他要把《痞子英雄》电影版拍不成的责任推往仔仔的身上。我记得姓赵的曾经说过:仔仔不拍,我就不拍
三、真的是如报道所说,和他的老爸闹翻了。从报道上看来,他的老爸的“大头症”还蛮严重的。可是……亲情可贵,不排除人家闭门一家亲,整家人做个“大龙风”,瞒骗世界。

好……要说演技吗?因为我只看到第18集,所以我的看法,也只限于到第18集为止。

~spoiler warning~



先说姓赵的:
生气、喊,很生气,喊很大声,他还是生气,他还是要用同样的语气怒喊,看到女主角时有一些不好意思、一点深情,看到罪犯时有目露凶光,要杀人的感觉。总结而言,一个只会大喊大叫、脾气暴躁的警察。

仔仔(痞子):
浑身散发没用的气息,胆小怕死,懦弱,看美女时色色的模样,慢慢地有为了朋友“死就死”的“拼了”样子,然后调皮又自信,羞涩,抓狂,伤心,伤痛欲绝(哭到不能自己),自暴自弃(颓废),重新振作,强颜欢笑等等……



就连一些以前不看好仔仔的人也觉得他的演技进步了……

我不停地向身边的人推荐这部戏,可是他们都认为仔仔的演技一成不变,或是演同一种角色。算了,我只是觉得有点儿可惜~ 《痞子英雄》可是“节目行销奖”的赢家啊…… 虽然我并不认同最佳男主角的人选……

总算有点没那么生气了……希望仔仔会越来越好!下一次一定可以拿奖!!!

Interview 1

Nope. Not yet. Not food post yet. That... ahh give me some time. I don't want to start on that yet.

So, last Friday I went to Shell for interview. Shell wey! I thought. Then it turned out to be I wasn't that excited after all. Maybe due to my tiredness post exam behaviour?

The interview took me about 2 hours. I did an English assessment and Maths test. The lady who passed me the paper told me that I have to pass the papers before I'm qualified for the oral interview. I don't know how on earth I linked and twisted her words into 'you must score FULL marks for the paper' kinda thinking, so I did the paper in kinda full concentration mode.

Both of the papers are freakingly easy. I'm not exaggerating it. English is more like primary level and the Maths test is about at secondary first year level. But hey, I always, yea ALWAYS make careless mistakes at easy tests, so the papers turned out to be difficult for me. So that explains why I took exactly 1.5 hours to complete the papers. The lady had to come in twice to collect the paper as I didn't complete it earlier. I think the guy (another interviewee) who also come from Monash did much faster than me.

Then, in less than 5 minutes after the lady collected my paper, another lady came in. Apparently she is the interviewer a.k.a. one of the HR staff. So there goes my 40 minutes duration of interview.

It was divided into 4 parts, which I couldn't really remember. I just know that its something about teamwork, values and cultures, xxx, and xxx. haha~ poor listening skill + memory. Before the interview started, she told me to keep my answers short but informative and meaningful, in which I gladly agreed as I'm not a good storyteller.

So the first part was on teamwork. To me, all her questions are similiar so basically I was just telling her that I focus alot on openness in discussion with my team mates and I'm a flexible person who are open for criticism and discussion. Crap. Don't know how it linked to the end that she summed me up as a 'team member' rather than 'team leader'. Well, this is 100% true, just that somehow it made me think that, owh well, time to go home. XD

Then we proceeded to 2nd part, on values and cultures. She asked me on my experience on encountering with team mates from different cultures (as the company has employees from different cultures). Crap. I'm a typical anti-social person who only mixes with my gang, especially when my gang takes all same subjects as me. My mind was practically flew from one part to the other and mixed my tutorials discussion with other team mates to answer her question. In short, basically its cut and paste. At this part, she asked me to tell her about the difference, advantages and disadvantages I found from mixing with them. Basically, this part of question is like partly designed to value myself DOWN. I told her that through mixing with these people, I found that they are more outspoken, opinion-oriented and they view things differently compared to me. But sometimes, its kinda difficult to interpret what they say, especially when the language problem comes in.

The remaining parts... I have no idea what was it. From the interviewer's expression, I could see her smile slowly faded away. I have no idea its because she was tired in copying down what I said or she was not pleased with my answer. So I thought: well even if I flunk this, at least I gained the interview experience. Nothing to lose.

Then, she asked me if there was any questions from me. I remembered big bro told me that I have to raise some questions in order to show that I'm not just a "yes-man" or nothing in mind kinda person. But in fact, I really have some queries especially on the interview result. It was then she told me that I will only be informed within 1-2 weeks time if I was shortlisted. for. 2nd and 3rd interview!!

I was like: inner expression twisted while I managed to show her an "oh~" poker face kinda expression.

1-2 weeks later, still have another 2 interviews to go?! Ehh~~~ feels like they are employing permanent staff. I was confused so I asked what is the exact job offered. There she went on and told me that basically they are offering 2 vacancies, 1 for inventories related stuff and 1 on management accounting. From the way she spoke, I could see that she don't like inventories stuff, so do I. haha! I'm more interested on management accounting if I was given the chance to choose. I didn't ask on the pay, since I thought probably this will be the last time I see her.

Then, today, she proved me wrong. I received a call from her around 7.30pm and she told me that I'm invited for 2nd interview, the admission interview.

I was like: What?!

Then, she continued and informed me that, its on Wednesday 5pm! Ah! What a coincidence! I have an interview on that day as well, but at 10.30am. So Wednesday is my interview day huh? I just realised that, I have to wear a different shirt for this interview, but thanks to the exam, I've put on weight at the stomach area! Surprisingly my pants are loosen but the shirt part failed me.

Oh no no no... I don't want to go for workout. Those workout... are not meant for normal human being like me la...

I. Hate. to exercise!

End of Semester 2, 2009

Before I have to start backdating my previous 1.5 months of food post, I shall start it off with...


Exam's over!


Yup thats about it.


Eh... No "exams-over" kinda mood over here. Don't know why it just don't come to me. Weird huh? Usually I will be like shouting over freedom or at least half smiling before the last paper ended. But now? Nope, not at all.

I need to fully recharge myself for this holiday.

Oh~ 3.5 months holiday... yippeee!

Organic Birthday!

Today is DG's birthday!

For this week, I planned 2 birthday surprise. One for YF, one for DG. I think I was kinda free after I gone through the assignment hectic month.

So, I think we did a brilliant job on YF's surprise birthday celebration. ^^ (it's not open for judgement, I say good means GOOD. XD)

For DG's, it was kinda difficult as she knows I definitely will remember her birthday. So, I let it flowed like this:

On Wednesday night...

DG: "Hey, tomorrow what time your class ends?" (she knows that my Thursday's class ends quite early)
me: "Oh, about 10am+.... OH YA hor, tomorrow is your birthday. Hmm.... I will have lunch with you then. What time is your lunch?"
DG: "Oh.... my lunch time is at 12pm, but its okay you can come anytime. We go to SS18 Organic Restaurant kay?"
me: (hidden, not visible evil grin) "12pm ah... Hmmm..... (acted to think for a while), okay then. I think I will come and fetch you around 12.15pm.. I have some stuff to do" (ya right)

DG: "okay.. Eh, where is jie jie?" (sis is quite busy throughout the week, so the way she asked I assumed she did not mean she want jie jie to join us but purely asking where sis is)
me: "don't know leh, I seldom see her nowadays..."
DG: "owh... okay..."

Then. BG who was listening to our conversation all the while, chipped in and kecoh says,
BG: "Eeeyerrr~ I also want to join~"
DG: "Join la!"
me: (hurriedly spoke while looking at BG) "Eh I thought you have to rush for your report??"
BG: (antenna connected instantly) "Yalor! Haihhhhhh~~~ So busy with the month end closing..."
me: (looked at DG) See! Who asks you to have birthday at the beginning of the month, should be at the middle of the month mah, see everyone is so busy..." (my usual style of bullying DG)

DG: (showed a quite pity look) "Ehh what~ month end closing so long one meh? until 8th day of the month?"
me: (think: eh quite smart woh you) "Ah I don't know la, she (BG) is always busy"
me: (continue and say) "Eh remember ahh, is I accompany you for lunch, not YOU accompany me lunch~" (just to sound as though not purposely ask her out for lunch)

- close curtain for wednesday -

Thursday afternoon...
me: (on the phone) "Eh DG, I come and fetch you now." (in monotone)
DG: "ok"

Some time later... at DG's office.
DG looked surprised when she saw me AND SIS went to fetch her for lunch! Happy la her, sis purposely postponed her meetings JUST to celebrate her birthday. Heh heh!

We reached organic restaurant around 12.30pm and we found a good parking spot. So ordered food, eat, and chit chat.

Then, mum called, then I asked mum if she wants to talk (wish) to DG. Before I pass DG the phone, I heard DG said: "must be BG la!" I grinned while acted normal and passed the phone to DG.

DG: "Eh what la don't kacau la! Ehh... oh..." (realised is my mum) Then she went on with her normal conversation with my mum. I bet mum must be wondering why DG talked to her in that manner. Haha!


Then... at 1.05pm sharp, BG APPEARED at the restaurant!

Wahahahaha~ another surprise for DG! DG was like "ehh? you came also?"
But her reaction was kinda cool and calm compared to my expectation. I thought she will react in a happier manner. I think this must be her usual *act cool* attitude. Thats why. XD

Wow long story man. Ok, ok. Food now!


Boring people eat boring things.
Sis's favourite orders: Vege sushi (above) and Dumpling soup (below)


Yummehhhhh pleasant soup~


Vege~


A warm dumpling soup served by sis to... who? DG la!


DG's yong tau foo. Something that I won't appreciate. XD


My all times favourite at this organic shop - Seaweed fried rice!
(ya who cares man! I AM a boring person! =P)


Last but not least, the super my-uncle, her-brother lookalike DG! Happy birthday ya! =D

Las Carretas

Yesterday, I had dinner at Las Carretas with bro. I was "forced" to treat him dinner as he helped me to update my resume. Well, more like restructuring my over-simplified resume. It is his first visit to this restaurant. Dinner at 6pm!


Las Carretas @ Taipan, USJ


The F.O.C. nachos. The cold salsa sauce taste just okay with the nachos. Nothing great.


Appetizer - Benji's Skins
- A signatory appetizer from Senór Benjamin's Kitchen. Two pieces of potato skins stuffed with South American Lamb Stew & gratinated with cheese.

This is GOOD!

How to say?
The softness of the lamb is just nice, not too chewy or soft. The cheese topping made it feel even smoother (the texture) and the potato skin matched perfectly with the cheese topped lamb. I felt soooooo satisfied the moment I tried this and I had to eat slowly as the serving was quite small. A very appetizing dish indeed!


Bro's Costilla de Cordero
- Chunky N.Z. Lamb Loin Chops served with Chimmi-Churri Dip, freshly made salad topped with our creamy Italian dressing & baked potato.

According to bro, it was an okay-okay dish only. Well, I tried some of it and I thought it was kinda too smoky and over BBQ-ed kind of taste. Not something that I will like. The potato taste kinda boring when the dressing is finished. Aww~~~ not my problem anyway. =P


Finally! My Quesadillas!
- A folded baked flour tortilla stuffed with Monterey Jack Cheese, onions, bell peppers, Jalapenos & topped with salsa, sour cream & guacamole. (chicken added)

So far, I've tried this for 3 times but this round is not a good try. It just don't taste that great compared to the previous tries. Partly also because the tortilla was kinda "burnt", so some funny taste on the tortilla made it slightly not so nice.

After that, we went to Subang Parade as bro wanted to get a wireless adapter. Seriously, the house connection is getting from bad to worse nowadays. It was really disappointing as all the problem came after we UPGRADED our streamyx package. I wonder what kind of service is this. *sigh*
And to think that we still have to stick to it as it was the fastest among all service provider, it just feel even more pathetic. Why?

We complain.
but still,
we are using it.

Feels like they are monopolising the internet service provider and we can't do anything to avoid it. =.=

Anyway, I benefited from this short visit at Subang Parade, be....be... because I FOUND A SUBSTITUE FOR MY BUBBLE PEARL MILK TEA!!!!!!


"Cool Blog" pearl milk tea! RM2.40!
- it was way cheaper than Little Taiwan's pearl milk tea and it taste almost the same with it! But of course, what matters most is that it is near to my area and I can have it anytime! Midvalley or One U is way too far for me!


Awww.... I love teddy bears... but stopped collecting it since Winnie the Pooh came... XD

PM 2 - Deadlift

Today is my second visit to Pushmore. The Workout of the Day ("WOD") is "Deadlift 5-5-5-5-5".

"Deadlift 5-5-5-5-5"

According to individual's strength etc etc, the weights to be lifted are different. The "5-5-5-5-5" means we have to lift the weights for 5 times (in a go, if possible) for 5 rounds. So in between we will take rest for about 5-10 minutes as breaks. According to the "ah tau" (boss a.k.a. the most geng trainer), 10 minutes should be the maximum resting time as our body will cool down if we rest too long. Well I knew it because sis told me earlier in the afternoon. She was the one who spoilt my lunch mood when I was told to go for workout today! XD

Honestly, I'm not sure how much weight I lifted because it was recorded in... lbs? Ahh, I damn fail in units measurement. I recognise kgs only. XD
But anyway, it was very light only. When you see what weights other people lifted, then you will know why. We were told to lift at least 80% of our weight but I'm sure I didn't. I definitely weight more than what I lifted. HAHAHA!

About the workout... Hmm...
I was put into a group of 3, including sis. Yea la~ she pro edi right. So basically her task was more like assisting another trainer to keep an eye on me and another girl. Basically my posture for the whole day was... WRONG! hahaha!
I had incorrect posture especially on my back, shoulder and knee (hey! that means everything IS WRONG! yea, I know!)

Eh heh heh heh~ Can't help it. I have been walking/sitting/stoning etc etc with bad posture for many many years, especially since the great exposure to UNIVERSITY LIFE! *grudge*

Eh eh. Off topic edi.

*edited*

So, here's the record of WOD for the day, which I stole from their website... *evil grin*

p/s: *touch wood* So far... no pain yet. Hopefully not. Hopefully won't. haha! (what a wish, end up I still wake up with a mile backache... ish ish ish...)



WOD093009
- I'm the only person who ends with 2 digits... hahaha~ did you notice that? =D

I'm back!

*blows away the dust*

Wow! Time flies... I didn't realise that my last update was quite some time ago. Lazy was one of the reason but the main thing is, I was so busy with assignments and tests! The crazy period started somewhere mid Aug until today!

To cut it short, for this whole week, my daily sleeping hours range from 1.5-6 hours. Crazy right! This happened as I had one assignment due on Wednesday and another 2 crazy assignments due today!

Because of that extensive research finance assignment, I slept at 6.30am and woke up at 8am for classes! Surprisingly, I felt alright. Well occasionally I do feel that I reacted slower than usual but I don't really feel sleepy. I survived the morning lecture but I lost focus on my evening lecture.

After classes, I went to Jean's house to have an intensive Japanese catch up lesson as I skipped 2 Jap classes. Yea! I was THAT preoccupied with assignments. Despite that, I still find time to log in to fb everyday. XD

Thats all I guess. I will not have assignments until March 2010! woohoo! And now, my one week mid-sem break has just started. Although I received poor marks for my mid-sem test and foreseeable fail audit assignment. Well, thats just not my style to fuss about the past.

So,

Happy Holidays!!! ^o^
