Our Brother Director, Brother Karl Wolff also better known as Brother Charles Levin has to leave us for the Creator.</p> <a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-mjhnqehL_hk/UHq6ZoG20TI/AAAAAAAAA20/XbrbVvx15Pk/s1600-h/sxi2%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="sxi2" border="0" alt="sxi2" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-WA9XA899TJI/UHq6bpR26aI/AAAAAAAAA28/X4MSZ2IEEE8/sxi2_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="282" height="388" /></a> <p>According to <a href="http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=%2F2012%2F10%2F14%2Fnation%2F20121014120834&sec=nation">The Star</a> newspaper, he passed away today, 14th October 2012, of sepsis at 4.14am.

At first I thought it was just a joke or prank but after reading several posts, I began to doubt my doubt. I just couldn’t accept this shocking news!</p> <p>Just a couple days ago, I still saw him, lingering around the school, with his usual stick, strolling along the corridor and now he’s gone? For me, I just can’t accept it! Although he never taught me in class, but from the first day I had ever step into this school, I knew this man is a great man! I have my utter respect towards him.</p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-1cTuRKbN4tI/UHq6f1JVbLI/AAAAAAAAA3U/Fb9PhrVwIOw/s1600-h/lvin%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: left; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="lvin" border="0" alt="lvin" align="left" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-ef4VBkTBKYQ/UHq6g3Oeg_I/AAAAAAAAA3c/rKlwNsEiXhk/lvin_thumb%25255B7%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="215" height="281" /></a></p> <p> </p> <p>When I was Form 2, I went to his German lesson couple of times. As I was young and I didn’t have the passion to learn German language, he still taught us well, with passion and patience. I still can remember our class started at 7am and we will be leaving around 7.40am, through the Brother’s Quarter. Used to always greet in German every morning, <em>“Guten Morgen, Bruder Charles”…</em></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Having Brother Charles to leave us, is truly a great loss. In the year 2009, our last Brother principal, Brother Paul retired, a year later, great Brother Brendan passed away and now our last Brother Director had to leave us. Seriously, I really what will happen to St. Xavier’s Institution after this. No more figure to defend our school’s mission, vision, legacy and tradition.</p> <p>We will always pray for you, as for the students and the children of St. Xavier, we will always hold our Lasallian principles. Rest in peace.</p> <p>Auf wiedersehen….</p> Charles Limhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16638674299108774601noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599721110912271849.post-69899581148210625862012-09-29T21:41:00.001+08:002012-09-29T21:41:43.038+08:00I’m Back!…. and more?<p><strong>HELLO!</strong> After a year on<em> hiatus</em>, I’ve decided to start blogging again.

It’s FINALLY OPEEEEEEEENN! Welcome to LEGOLAND Malaysia! The first LEGO themed park in ASIA! (<em>Wooo~ So proud being a Malaysian</em>)<br />

Legoland Malaysia is located at Nusajaya, Johor. It’s just a few kilometer from Singapore, approx 10-15 minutes drive maybe? Anyway, for us, the Malaysian, it’s in Johor. If you don’t know where is Johor, Google Map your way out, man!<br />

Well, for your information, Maybank is giving out tickets for LEGOLAND! Details <a href="http://www.maybank2u.com.my/mbb_info/m2u/public/promoDetail.do?channelId=PRO-Promotions&cntTypeId=1&cntKey=PRO09.09&programId=PRO09-OnlineBanking&chCatId=/mbb/Personal/PRO-Promotions">here</a>. I kinda stumble across this, so maybe I should just try it out? (<em>Like duhhhh</em>)<br />
Question: “Why Maybank should give me tickets to Legoland?”<br />

Easy! This is because I have travel so many places, and tried all kind of theme park already. For example, <br />
Sunway Lagoon and Lost World of Tambun, <br />

Genting Highland Theme Park<br />

These parks are mostly Malaysian choice for water theme park and I love them! Thus, I would love to visit LEGOLAND because I heard the dry and water theme park are equally awesome? Seriously? Don’t tempt me <em>lah</em>! <br />
They even have a rebuild of KL Tower and Petronas Twin Tower in Johor!<br />
<a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-8R7tEI2L9IM/UFdGcCSy4wI/AAAAAAAAA04/g4ntgcqFQ4c/s1600-h/405191_412004702196504_506183969_n%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="405191_412004702196504_506183969_n" border="0" height="388" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-loMB83L73Eo/UFdGc2pWPxI/AAAAAAAAA1A/8CLiTrctajE/405191_412004702196504_506183969_n_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="405191_412004702196504_506183969_n" width="259" /></a><br />
In Legos, of course. How surreal they can rebuild it and looks almost exactly the same! <br />
As adventurous and aqua-seeker as I am, LEGOLAND Malaysia is a must for me to visit one day. Even me, a Penangite, from the north Malaysia can take the challenge of taking transportation as long as 10hrs to travel to Johor, just for LEGOLAND, well I can say that it will be a worthwhile trip! Just look at the amount of people, craviiiing for it!<br />

Neither the less, for those who love theme park and water park, LEGOLAND Malaysia is a must to visit! Why?<br />
1. It’s LEGO! Who doesn’t like LEGO?<br />
2. It’s just in Johor. If you want to go to another LEGOLAND, it will be another 11000 kilometers away. Why not travel just 500 kilometers (from Penang) only?<br />
3. The price is AFFORDABLE! Serious, not joking at all. It’s just RM140 for an adult price. Check it out <a href="http://www.legoland.com.my/Plan/Prices-and-Tickets/">here</a>!<br />

I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I’ve ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories.</em></p> <p><em>The first story is about connecting the dots. <br />I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out? <br />It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: “We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?” They said: “Of course.” My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.</em></p> <p><em>And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents’ savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn’t see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.</em></p> <p><em>It wasn’t all romantic. I didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:</em></p> <p><em>Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn’t have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can’t capture, and I found it fascinating.</em></p> <p><em>None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it’s likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.</em></p> <p><em>Again, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.</em></p> <p><em>My second story is about love and loss.</em></p> <p><em>I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation — the Macintosh — a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.</em></p> <p><em>I really didn’t know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down – that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me — I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.</em></p> <p><em>I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.</em></p> <p><em>During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple’s current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.</em></p> <p><em>I’m pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn’t been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.</em></p> <p><em>My third story is about death.</em></p> <p><em>When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.</em></p> <p><em>Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.</em></p> <p><em>About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn’t even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor’s code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you’d have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.</em></p> <p><em>I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I’m fine now.</em></p> <p><em>This was the closest I’ve been to facing death, and I hope it’s the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:</em></p> <p><em>No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.</em></p> <p><em>Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.</em></p> <p><em>When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960′s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.</em></p> <p><em>Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.</em></p> <p><em><font color="#ff0000">Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.</font></em></p> <p><em>Thank you all very much.</em></p> </blockquote> <p><font face="Georgia">The past has passed, therefore I’m guessing we should just look at our future right now.

Tell you why. For the past weekend, I was very busy with my school’s Board’s farewell dinner which happened just yesterday and it was AMAZING, like duhhh.

It’s like I’m talking to the wall.</p> <p>Anyway, my whole week of suffering paid off since the farewell dinner went EXTREMELY Awesome! Seriously, if it’s wasn’t for my friends to offer me transportation to school on rainy days.

My bad for not updating my blog cause of the amount of homework you can visually see that it’s pilling up and never comes down. By the way, I am currently studying as a Form Six. </p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-mUnSsghczBQ/TirnZ8lvkOI/AAAAAAAAAuA/Ayw9f_d8TSE/s1600-h/stress1%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="stress1" border="0" alt="stress1" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-1BFuOWJ4wYM/TirnapTbdqI/AAAAAAAAAuE/bcZOYW1K15E/stress1_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="245" height="244" /></a></p> <p>Therefore, the only days I‘m looking forward is the weekend!<em> *Looking forward to the weekend*</em></p> <p>Seriously, weekend really save my life. As weekend arrived, I have 48 hours of freedom to finish up my homework, leisure and time for blogging :) Therefore, as today, I went to Tesco Tanjung Tokong. The newly open Tesco which replace the old one at upper Greenlane.</p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-PiMWuws7RQ0/TirnbdAdhEI/AAAAAAAAAuI/YAGoyYrdQTo/s1600-h/tesco-tanjung-tokong%25255B4%25255D%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="tesco-tanjung-tokong[4]" border="0" alt="tesco-tanjung-tokong[4]" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-8ly6sgDe0KI/TirncLKnXzI/AAAAAAAAAuM/QeIpJOdRDJU/tesco-tanjung-tokong%25255B4%25255D_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="516" height="302" /></a></p> <p>I was looking forward for this because I planned to visit here on the opening of the store but… you know, homework? My brother went there and he told me there’s like Sakae Sushi, Mizi Bistro, Swensen… <em>Waaahhhh!</em> *excited*</p> <p>And it’s true! I see a lot of stall there, the concept may be something like the old store but me likey the new tenants! Ground floor and the 1st floor is mainly for all the tenants; food, beverages, clothing and electronics. And the main topic is at the 2nd floor, TESCO supermarket. Eventually I spent a lot there, food and more food. It was really really spacious!</p> <p>And later, I went to town area at the afternoon. My target was Prangin Mall cause I wanted to get a Y-cable for audio.</p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-h-wdJ8J6JrE/Tirncl87_LI/AAAAAAAAAuQ/2fSs_XCCGNU/s1600-h/images%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="images" border="0" alt="images" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-9kVvWSl1gUo/TirndI_6ekI/AAAAAAAAAuU/K90B7nsDy7c/images_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="204" /></a></p> <p>But due to lack of experience of the product, I bought a Y-cable for audio BUT not left/right output. I bought the same mono output.</p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ojL75fNSQ0g/TirndqDsVpI/AAAAAAAAAuY/XmICNRs5FXo/s1600-h/sdamyc%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="sdamyc" border="0" alt="sdamyc" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-6Ix8CjVCk8Q/TirneO-PdfI/AAAAAAAAAuc/RX6qycLR2Dc/sdamyc_thumb%25255B3%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="213" /></a></p> <p>I was really frustrated when I realised I bought the wrong thing when I reached home. Haizz, what a luck. Anyway before I went home, I went to 1st Avenue where once I worked there. Find my old colleague and friends, it was really nice to talk to them after months of not contacting them. What a nostalgia feeling. *dreaming*</p> <p> Meeting back friends there wasn’t my only motive, as I was going to visit another supermarket in 1st Avenue which is Carrefour.</p> <p align="center"> <a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-jYY9j2o2Kt4/TirnfEegw8I/AAAAAAAAAug/W5QtrEmPs-I/s1600-h/188327_260636240618731_165384046810618_1271210_5947548_n%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="188327_260636240618731_165384046810618_1271210_5947548_n" border="0" alt="188327_260636240618731_165384046810618_1271210_5947548_n" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-xSYXkOYG-W0/Tirngt1WXHI/AAAAAAAAAuk/586hhnxJIBw/188327_260636240618731_165384046810618_1271210_5947548_n_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="516" height="344" /></a></p> <p>Well, it was nice to FINALLY have a supermarket for 1st Avenue where I believe it will attract more customers there. It was kinda packed due to the space and their stocks. Final say, it’s a shop-able place.</p> <p>After wondering aimlessly for a few minutes, I decide to go back as my sickness (Flu) is worst. Since early morning I was sneezing all the way, oh well. Went back home and sleep.</p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/-B5fEJlX04U0/TirnhEBvNSI/AAAAAAAAAuo/l9sbBeXQGlI/s1600-h/sleepyhead_zzz_sleeping_card-p137684508940701452q0yk_400%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="sleepyhead_zzz_sleeping_card-p137684508940701452q0yk_400" border="0" alt="sleepyhead_zzz_sleeping_card-p137684508940701452q0yk_400" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/-tGrKTlcYKeM/Tirnh_U6d8I/AAAAAAAAAus/k-TRKBYSHrE/sleepyhead_zzz_sleeping_card-p137684508940701452q0yk_400_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="244" height="244" /></a></p> <p>And here am I, blogging after several hours of sleep.

Today I would just like to express my feeling and thoughts here.</p> <p>2 years plus had passed and the Earth is still spinning, everyone is still going through life. I still can remember that fateful day, clearly as it was just yesterday. I was having my one of my best day of my life as I was in school and it was PE, volleyball is the game and I totally have a great time. That 5 hours at school was seriously fun cause the day later, I will be having my trail examination for one of the important examination of my life.</p> <p>After school, it’s was time to go home and as usual my dad picked my up with the usual motorcycle and headed home. At home, I broke my daily routine by going to study for my examination (I don’t usually study). I studied for around an hour and decided to take a break. I sat down at the living room and did nothing. Mom was hanging clothes outside and then, something happened.</p> <p>I heard voice of my dad, he was sleeping at that time. Something like a grunt but I did not care about it. A while after the first sound, it happened again and frequent. I went and asked my mom about it and she thought he was having nightmare. Then, we approached him and try to wake him up but we can’t. Then we shouted and hit him but it failed. My brother quickly try to do CPR on him and I went for ambulance call.</p> <p>As I called the ambulance, I was really scared and I really don’t know what to say, I just told them my address and told them to be quick! They told me they don’t know the specific area, so they asked me to stay outside the main road. I went quickly outside and waited for them. </p> <p>Waited and waited for 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, no sign of ambulance. My neighbour called the ambulance again to confirm and a couple of minutes later, it arrived. As I was outside, I don’t know what is happening inside but I could guess, my brother keep doing CPR. When they arrived, I can guess it was too late already but I couldn’t accepted the reality. Hoping and hoping and hoping but when the paramedics told us that he was gone, my mom cry in despair, my brother try to be strong and me, I just keep quiet and I just could not accept the reality. I was thinking that maybe it’s just a dream or a movie, everything will be okay by tomorrow or later but my senses came to my and told me that everything will not be okay anymore.</p> <p>Anyway, it had already happened a couple years ago and my family is slowly getting over the grief and sadness but till today, these memories will always be in my mind. I just want to say I really love you, dad even you are always strict with me, scold me but you are the only father of me.

Don’t expect the Rotten Tomatoes-esque of reviews, simple one.</p> <p><strong><em>The Green Hornet</em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWWXHObSI/AAAAAAAAAmw/AYRWJDtZg4U/s1600-h/green_hornet_poster-535x793%5B5%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="green_hornet_poster-535x793" border="0" alt="green_hornet_poster-535x793" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWXJYQFyI/AAAAAAAAAm0/pIWvQN2fQwU/green_hornet_poster-535x793_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="263" height="388" /></a></p> <p>The Green Hornet, yes it released quite a number of months already but I just watch okay? Seth Rogen is a comedian, therefore it’s kinda funny how he acted and his natural comedy background. Jay Chou, the superstar. It’s kinda weird to heard him speak English, with a weird accent. </p> <p>Overall, it’s all about vigilante hero story. Predictable but watch it for the comedians’ sake.</p> <p>Rating: 6/10 (Comedy’s sake) </p> <p><strong><em>The King’s Speech</em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWXlxi3nI/AAAAAAAAAm4/CUcNR4BXgjM/s1600-h/the-kings-speech-movie-poster1-406x600%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="the-kings-speech-movie-poster1-406x600" border="0" alt="the-kings-speech-movie-poster1-406x600" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWYbmhjBI/AAAAAAAAAm8/Yk2vaC9NX9c/the-kings-speech-movie-poster1-406x600_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="264" height="388" /></a></p> <p>Award-winning show, a must-watch movie! For some people who prefer action-packed movie, I would not recommend this movie to you because it’s drama and history genre. Colin Firth, winner for Best Actor who played as King George VI who just can’t speak… well. Stammer all the sentence he said and help by a speech therapist, Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush).</p> <p>It’s might be a little boring from the starts by slowly with a little humour, the movie is enlighted with a splendid end. Overall, one again, a must-watch movie.</p> <p>Rating: 9/10</p> <p><strong><em>Faster</em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWaxzt8EI/AAAAAAAAAnA/LP4YmYqmKNU/s1600-h/Faster_14%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Faster_14" border="0" alt="Faster_14" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWba_UvfI/AAAAAAAAAnE/N_7S2XRLEmk/Faster_14_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="263" height="388" /></a></p> <p>Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, ever since he joined the acting world, it’s getting better and better but in this movie, I would say it’s a little dull. It’s all about vengeance. Hunting down those robbers that killed his brother… Plot was boring.</p> <p>Maybe if you are interested by the details of the movie or else, it’s more or else you will know the ending.</p> <p>Rating: 4/10</p> <p><strong><em>127 Hours</em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWcGy_K9I/AAAAAAAAAnI/LoFy7Bds2Vs/s1600-h/127-hours-poster1%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="127-hours-poster1" border="0" alt="127-hours-poster1" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWcgwogwI/AAAAAAAAAnM/G2bQLocz81Y/127-hours-poster1_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="263" height="388" /></a></p> <p>Another must-watch movie. 127 Hours is based on the true story of Aron Ralston who loves the wild and don’t tell anyone that where he’s going. It’s a story where he is stuck in a canyon with a big boulder stuck on his right hand, with a limited amount of water to survive.</p> <p>This movie is truly inspiring but for those weak-hearted people, I do not recommend you to watch the hand-amputating part. A lot of people can’t accept it, its looks really really real. The soundtrack was also highly suitable for the movie, check it out.</p> <p>Rating: 9/10</p> <p><strong><em>The Mechanic </em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWdJHyHaI/AAAAAAAAAnQ/gLKJ8q5ApyQ/s1600-h/the-mechanic-movie1%5B4%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="the-mechanic-movie1" border="0" alt="the-mechanic-movie1" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWd-z7BJI/AAAAAAAAAnU/lhCriZGsfLg/the-mechanic-movie1_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="266" height="388" /></a></p> <p>Another action-packed movie! Full of action and adrenaline that will sure keeps everyone awake for the movie. Bishop (Jason Statham) who is a hitman kills his target and acted it as if it’s an accident. During the movie, he had to kill one of his friend and the friend’s son is a good-for-nothing where he taught him to be a hitman too, something like that because I don’t really get it when I watched it.</p> <p>Anyway, the plot was interesting but rather predictable too. Kill, kill, killed, as usual.</p> <p>Rating: 7/10 (Action part only)</p> <p><strong><em>Rango</em></strong></p> <p><a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWeSVgT1I/AAAAAAAAAnY/w_h1nkMD3F4/s1600-h/Rango-Movie-Poster-2%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; border-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; border-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px" title="Rango-Movie-Poster-2" border="0" alt="Rango-Movie-Poster-2" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_8bXrM4VAGk0/TYBWfIugLbI/AAAAAAAAAnc/3kiYJ36j34o/Rango-Movie-Poster-2_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="263" height="388" /></a></p> <p>Johnny Depp’s movie. Although I hate to watch animation in cinema but this is quite interesting. Plot was easily predictable as it’s a person, or chameleon or lizard who lie and coincidentally with luck, people believe in him as a hero. Well, watch it for comedians’ sake again because there are lots of jokes! Very funny and laughable movie!</p> <p>It’s might be animation but not recommended for children 12 and below because most of the joke are kinda mature jokes. Anyway, it’s a family/friends hangout movie.</p> <p>Rating: 8/10</p> <p>There are more movies I wanted to watch such as Black Swan, Unknown and etc. but it’s the cash I am worried of. Well, maybe you can tell me how do you think of the movie? *smile*</p> Charles Limhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16638674299108774601noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599721110912271849.post-58521040683717220552011-03-05T09:32:00.001+08:002011-04-08T20:25:52.388+08:00Weekly Craze: Music VideoThis week is all about music because all the latest hits are released! <div><br /></div><div><i>Hold It Against Me - Britney Spears</i></div><br /><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-Edv8Onsrgg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><div><br /></div><div>And coming up, <i>Born This Way - Lady GaGa</i><br /><br /></div><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wV1FrqwZyKw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><div><br /></div><div>And the latest from Friday, <i>On The Floor - J.Lo feat Pitbull</i></div><div><br /></div><iframe title="YouTube video player" width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/t4H_Zoh7G5A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe><div><br /></div><div>These are the latest hits on the charts!

Well, it’s not my 1st time watching movie with foul languages but it’s in cinema, public. Everyone has their first time, just bear with me. </p> <p>To be honest, the movie was actually good, cool effects and action parts but I would recommend everyone to buy DVD to watch because in cinema, A LOT OF scene were censored or ‘cut’. It freaking annoys me when I see some bad guy going to attack and the next scene I saw him dead already,<em> wtf</em>?</p> <p>Overall, it’s your choice. Sound system or uncensored parts?

Oh wait, who are they?<br /><br />Seriously, I waited and watched the Grammy's for 3 hours patiently to know who win for Album of the Year and you gave it to a rock band that shouts and scream eerily? And the worst part was I see nothing but bicycles flying around the stage during their performances.<br /><br />Come on! There's Eminem, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry or even the top winner of the night, Lady Antebellum. Why some freak band?
