Recently, being the holidays, I've been burning holes in my wallet by watching many movies. I was going to review them all, but I guess I could do a brief little thing?

Goong
★★★★☆
Shame there was no half star, because I would have put 4.5 stars. I love this drama, but it's a bit long-winded and progresses really slow. That's why it lost a star. It's 26 episodes, I would recommend it, unless you're one of those people that will rage unless it goes faster. Like me. But I had time on my hands because it was the holidays. I also don't recommend this if you don't want to cry. To be honest, I don't think the Prince looks that hot, BUT it's still a good drama. Mostly Romance I suppose.

Glee
★★★★★
I actually really like this. I'm a fan of singing and dancing things because they look really cool and yeh. But obviously, because they always happen to have a song that describes their life story, it makes it slightly unrealistic. And I doubt they give out free slushies, however, that's America we're talking about. And I also love Sue. She is like, cool :) Also, because I'm slow and only get the trends until after a while, I'm only on Season 1 ... T_T Yeh, sorry about that. From this, you get laughs? singing along with shit? Hell, I even danced. I'm lame.

Easy A
★★★☆☆
I didn't actually like this movie at all. I mean, it was alright, I'm too nice a person to give it less than 3 stars out of 5. Totally, not really. It's just about American schools with having to keep up a cool reputation and all. It's not that great. Honestly, that's all I can say. I think I'm more into fantastical and not so generic movies. I think that's what alot of people are into now. Everything is the same now I swear. == Anyway, this is good for people who have already watched every other movie in the world and is bored to wit's end.

Despicable Me
★★★★☆
I love this. Role reversal. Not generic. Not Easy A. Seriously, these minions are the cutest things. They don't talk English, which is what all cute things do and they squeal, which is also what cute things do and they're like one basic shape (cylinder) just rounded at the edges. And they're in OVERALLS. I repeat OVERALLS. How could you not adore these? Honestly. Anyway, this is what it looks like, a kid's movie. What can I say, I love Disney, Pixar, everything that's for kids. AND THAT LITTLE KID. Okay, she talks English, but that's forgiven because she's small and has huge eyes and she has the cutest ponytail. So, this is for people who love kid's movies and cute things. I suppose.

Avatar: The Last Airbender (anime)
★★★★★
I like this a lot better than the movie. Maybe because it didn't cut out like every second minute of what was happening and because it's a cartoon. And because they don't have a nationality. Everything's much prettier and not so poverty-stricken looking. I just love it because 1. kids and 2. just because. Actually, I don't really know why I like things, it's like when you ask me, why don't I like tomato? because I don't. Also, don't compare tomato to congee. They are different. Rice is different. It's much more Asian and cooler. Anyway, this is for everyone like me who goes home after school to watch kids' cartoons. Nevermind. It's for cool people.
Avatar: The Last Airbender (movie)
★★★★☆
They pronounced his name wrong. It's Ang, not Aang. Wtf is a Aang. It's like si haang (toilet in canto) without the h. Anyway, Ang looks like he's going to kill someone the whole time and at no point does he look happy. I swear. And Katara looks depressed and like she has eye bags all the time. Sokka has the weirdest hair, seriously, I've heard people actually insult people with this and they don't actually mean it literally, but it does look like someone put a mop on his head. Honestly. Furthermore, Zuko is just a really pissed off guy. Well he's like that in the anime, but in the movie, he has big eyes and they're not small and like a line which makes it more like his really angry and not pretending to be angry. I reckon, it would be a much much much better movie if the actors were freaking Asian. Seriously, the Fire Nation is Indian, the Air Nomads are Eurasian, and the Water Tribe are white. There is something wrong with this film. The only normal ones are selected members of the Earth Kingdom who are actually Asian. Otherwise, some others are also Eurasian. This is for people who can't be bothered to watch all the episodes of the anime, otherwise, I recommend watching the anime. Fully.

On a side note.
Dear myself in 1o years time.
When I come to read this again, on this day 04102010,

Today, went to city and watched Despicable Me. In fact, I just wanted to announce that, I didn't particularly feel like talking about it. What a waste of a post. But then again, who cares. That's all, and I made a new friend: Jessie Shu ! hello :)

toy story 3

I am well and truly amazed at myself . This is the third time I've blogged? But, I said I would try make a more meaningful blog, but I guess that hasn't happened yet . All it's been is recounts and movies . I have watched quite a few movies recently . By quite a few, I mean two .
__________________________________________
So today, at 8:00, I left the house, ready to go to Chinese school (not really). At 8:15, when Chinese School was about to start, I headed for the bathrooms behind the school in order to meet Cathy. I waited 20 minutes . We can skip the part where I stress all my impatience over Cathy. We headed to Gloria Jeans and chatted and sipped at our Very Vanilla Latte and our Chocolate Crossiant.
At Priceline, I was tempted to buy a few things, but due to my extremely low level of money right now, I prevented myself from going into debt. (Yet I do later in the day) Coles, Target - a few stops along the way . Then we went to Food Court, as usual, and awaited the presence of Erine, Erica and Helen.
On our way to Chica Booti, I got my first My Bus ticket . Honestly, I don't see the difference . At Chica Booti, Cathy bought a really nice dress . Not very Winter, but still . It was very lovely. We got on the bus to the mall and met Gavin, Max and Jono. We had some lunch followed by a stop by Coles to gather food for the movie.
Then, to Mosman ! (Wherever the hell that is)

Seriously, yes. Toy Story 3 is that good. I highly recommend it. It was a very moving story. More like, I cried and screamed (actually) during the film. And yeahh , yet again, I can't be bothered to talk about it. Rather, I am just going "not spoil it for you" yet again.

_____________________________________
Today, I also bought myself some stuff . Also, owing $20 to Helen. Thank you so much ! But, I'm not sure when I'll have money again. In the last eleven weeks, I've spent nearly $700. I am craving money at the moment .

Last day of Term 2 ! Another busy term ahead of us. However, these two weeks will help us be free before we continue to do many many many tests that actually affect our future. D: Happy holidays people !

Today, I went to the city after school and
I met the coolest person on earth, ROY. If you need to clarify, he is a magician. A Korean one at that. Read on.
So anyway, we went to city and we did nothing in particular in fact. We went to the Mac Store (to pee) as usual, and headed to Chinatown. In Chinatown we bought some squid body thing. It was kind of spicy but it was alright. It was now that we met the REALLY COOL magician guy. I was standing in awe.

Afterwards, we dispersed and it wasn't too interesting. I would just like to exhibit my admiration of cool magician person.

Recently, I watched
Shrek Forever After. It wasn't too bad, but it was still worth watching. This movie was more epic and Fiona was an admired warrior. Actually, I won't spoil it too much. Tomorrow, I'm also planning on watching
Toy Story 3 and I will also try to blog tomorrow. Since it's the holidays, I suppose I will be blogging more.
