U.Fucking.O.-s
Don't know what's wrong with movies these days, always pulling in the alien-factor when they can't organize a plot well enough that doesn't need something as far-fetched as extra-terrestrial stuff.
I went to watch the movie preview(with my sister) of 'Knowing', the latest Japanese show starring Nicholas Cage.
The movie was screened at Shaw Centre or something, at 9PM, which sexplains my absence from Runescape. So that place looked like a potential zombie hideout, the kind which I'd ambush people in if I were a zombie/vampire. It's dark, and ulu, and there are hardly anybody around. Which actually defeats the purpose of 'ambush', but oh well.
Not the point.
So anyway, the show was rather cool at the beginning, brings out feelings of despair in the middle, and the sentiment of having wasted your time surfaces towards the back of the movie.
The despair = the kind which you know the future, but you can't do anything to change it. Which can be really quite disturbing, which is why you shouldn't want to know the future. I'd rather keep stuff a suspense. Things are more orgasmic this way.
The having wasted your time = having wasted your time--I didn't want to watch a movie which eventually ends up with the Earth getting destroyed and the children getting picked up by aliens and UFO-s and getting flown to 'another Earth'. Flown, or transported, whichever you prefer.
I'm glad it's a free preview, because my sis won the tickets at some..I don't know either, those call-ins during radio programs or something. So it's free, and I'm glad it it because if not I'd have been rather self-reproachful for the waste of money. This is the kind of movie which should be played as 'Stay-home Saturday night movie' or something along those lines. It's entertaining enough to be on air, but not entertaining enough to be a movie.
Coz I really hate aliens. OK, they may exist, but they shouldn't exist in movies. I mean, keep the plot of a movie to a reasonable threshold. Don't, y'know, cook up some far-fetched shit about how aliens came in to save the human race.
Which is why I didn't like 'The day the Earth stood still'. It was even more lame than 'Knowing'(which could actually be quite cool minus the shit about aliens). Urgh.
I'm just anti-aliens.
Went to the Marriott hotel(don't know how to spell, and that rhymed) after the movie to wait for my mum to come fetch us home. There was this pub like thingy in the hotel itself, and I saw women strutting their stuff. It was dimly lit, but the door was wide open and there were China-looking women wearing body-hugging dresses(not the kind I like, too) and stoning. Some looked unhappy that they haven't gotten a kill yet, while some are enjoying the company of many testosterone-driven males.
I like drinking. I mean, I like alcohol and stuff, but it doesn't mean that I have to go to a pub to drink alcohol. Stuff could happen, and I really don't want any STDs.
People do stuff for a reason, and people would go pub for a reason. Besides getting laid(and there's even a hotel), I can't think of a better reason to visit a pub.
I'd love to enter one though, get to see stuff.
Got home at 11plus. Didn't get enough sleep.
Now, let's talk about competitiveness, and insecurities about dick size. Any resemblance to any person, living or dead, is simply coincidental.
Lecturer A lectures, finishes his lectures, and doesn't tell his tutorial groups anything about 'mind maps'.
Lecturer B lectures after lecturer A's topic, and talks about mind maps, and calls people out at random, not to humiliate them but ti keep the whole lecture group awake. If the called people are unable to answer questions he poses, they have to submit a mind map.
At the end of his lecture topic, Lecturer B talks about how nice the mind maps are, and shows some samples.
Then Lecturer A makes everyone in his lecture groups stay back after that same lecture in which Lecturer B showed the mind maps, and talks about how 'it is automatic for you guys to come up with your own mind maps after every topic'.
Don't know what to comment about lecturer A.
I just think that people shouldn't do stuff they won't normally do just to 'keep up' with others. Do things at your own pace, and have sex your way. You're the one that'd experience your own orgasm, not others, so why bother learning the way to orgasms from other people?
If your engine is Toyota, it is Toyota. If your engine is Ferrari, then your engine is Ferrari. Some people like is slow and steady, some want it hard and fast. Sex has no 'universal-way-to-teach', and so is teaching.
Time for orgasms.
