 Sunday, January 10, 2010 @ 1:14 AM: You Skxaung!! XDD 
Well, looks like my semester break is finally coming to an end.And what a break it was! I feel like I'm finally having a cuti-cuti Malaysia thing going on here haha! Lets see, I went Melaka, Penang, Singapore, and lately Kampar. But technically, kampar wasn't for a trip. It was for an uncle's funeral. Sigh, I'll miss him. It was sad to see how all the relatives I've seen before become so old as well. Ah well, treasure life everyone~ Right, so moving on. I am proud to say, I have finally brought my best friend Chi Yan over to the dark side. Muahahahahahaha!!! And no, not with cookies! With my DSLR camera hehe... She who usually isn't used to taking photos, got tempted by me to try out some modelling at her park after we hung out at The Curve. It was a fun outing. The Curve was mostly boring and lame, but the fact that we haven't met in a few months really makes a lame place seem ok. Back to the temptation XDD... So as I said, I tempted her to try out a few pics. But as we proceeded, it would seem someone got a little bit addicted to it. Lol. Not bad for her 1st time, don't you think? :P It was a bit tough for ME tho... since the sun was so bloody glaring of all days!! But I still managed to do editing enough to make the photos turn out okay. Thank God for photo editing tools!! And at the end of the day, she said she wouln't mind doing this again LOL! And asked me when was the next round. Kakakakakaka!!! I'm breeding camera freaks here!! Anyone else? :P ****************************************************** So today!! Well, today hahaha. I was in Midvalley pretty much the entire day~ I was supposed to go with Sara to watch Sherlock Holmes in the morning. But the tickets were already sold out by the time we got there. The only seats available were the front row of the cinema. So no way in hell am I gonna blind myself sitting there!!! Same thign happened when we tried to switch movies to Alvin and The Chipmunks 2.. So, we let it go and went off to find Wai Keat for lunch~ Didn't miss a chance to take some photos either.. Wai Keat has been hoping to take a photo with my DSLR since I told him about it! XD So after that, Sara and I just wandered around for abit... Went to this Chocolate Fair taking photos of chocolates to tempt my mom.. Just for fun. :P But by the end of the fair, we realised Sara had left something behind at the food court. Typical Sara. Always forgetting stuff. By the time we went back there, it was already gone. Luckily it was nothing much important or expensive. Tho the fact that she just bought it less than an hour ago, made it such a waste. We went back to Midvalley area to buy it once again. Swt. Then, we went to QuikSilver to visit my dear bro Edward awhile, before leaving back home. If you think this is the end of my trip in MV tho, you are SORELY MISTAKEN!!! I only stayed home for an hour or so before going back there again with my family (minus dad)~ Watched Avatar at last!!! =D I really gotta say... Totally awesome movie!!! The special effects were just the tip of the iceberg. What really intrigued me was the imagination of James Cameron. Who happens to be both the director of this movie as well as the previously famous Titanic. The way he created this entire world of fascinating creatures, culture, tribes and language.. I really cannot begin to explain how fascinating that world is to me. Just watching it made me feel like it was real.. like it really existed... And how much I really wished I was there... Its hard to explain to those who havent watched the movie yet. But once u've watched it, u'll be amazed at the beauty of the world that is there. Oh and btw, once u understand the true meaning of "I See You", it kicks the phrase "I Love You" under the dump. XD The meaning of this phrase, u guys can figure out for urselves. But u really wanna know and watched the movie edi, u can always ask me privately. I don't provide spoilers here. Anyway, truly amazing movie. I used to wonder why my friends could go to the cinema jsut to watch this movie repeatedly.. Now I know why. And I think I will go watch it again soon, the next chance I get!! XD Oh, and a small fun fact about this movie: The 430 million dollar movie Avatar became the fifth movie in history to pass through the 1 billion dollar mark in unadjusted inflation worldwide sales. It is now, so far, the fourth highest grossing movie of all time at $1.0188 billion, surpassing The Dark Knight which is at $1.0019 billion. Only three films have higher sales, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest at $1.0662 billion, The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King at $1.1191 and Cameron’s previous film Titanic (No.1) with a staggering $1.8429 billion. Cool huh? This James Cameron dude is seriously one of my idolized directors... Right beside Steven Spielberg!! Oh and before I forget, I really LOVE the Na'vi language. Its the language created by James Cameron for the Omaticayan tribe people. Its sooo.... tribal!! XDDD Especially the word "skxawng"... Sounds hard to read, I know. But its my favorite word so far... since its probably the only word I know lol~ But actually, its just read as "skaung" The "x" is silent. And it means MORON!! Hahaha. You skxawng! XD So thats about it for my post today I suppose. College is starting back and I'm still not yet back in the mood. Sigh... And results are out soon too. But, all I can think of is Avatar now!! So I'll probably watch it again next week haha~ Nitey nite peeps!! Labels: amazing, avatar, family, friends, movies, my life, photography  |
