Feels good to be back.

Yesterday marked the end of Semester 5, and boy, did I end it with a bang, scribbling like a mad lie detector for my SSD2210 paper. I hope all the effort Jack and I put into this module is justified. We shall see.

Indeed, Semester 5 has been hectic, so much more than all the other semesters I've ever had. Yes, even more than last semester, when we were rushing recordings and rehearsals for FBH. Those crazy 12am (a.k.a midnight) MSN project discussions, missing the last bus, spending 1 day to conjure up an assignment and spending the next 1 week editing it, mad dashes for tuition, and basically sacrificing alot of time at Geyao and with family, friends and dates. Family wasn't quite understanding; Dad was Skyping me every night and pestering me about each and every family member's whereabouts, Mum would give me the cold shoulder after her long bath, and my sisters are (as usual) anal. *sighs* I'm just glad such things have come to an end (not including my sisters being anal). And December's largely going to looking for a job (anyone hiring?), catching up with friends, reading (time to spend that book prize), spending more time at home, and claiming back all those dates. And those movies.

Oh. And I'm insistent on watching New Moon, even when Straits Times gave it 1.5 out of 5 stars. Yes, laments are all about how much the wolf boys are sheding their shirts and how bad the action was. If the action was bad, then it's just plain bad, no disputes over that. But why are people complaining about topless guys? Doesn't your 80-year-old neighbour walk along the corridor and watering his plants topless too? Besides, it's all about sex appeal, and that's what's drawing the female screamers (and cryers, and identified by Taylor and Kristen). It's like why men buy FHM Singapore, even when the models in it look like that. Besides, isn't the take-off-shirt thing written in the book? So isn't it only rational that the script writers put that in? Perhaps the only boo-boo was getting Edward to go topless; he looked more of a new-born hamster than a beautiful predator. Urgh. I'll just watch it, and then rave about it. And one more thing: Yes, I concur with majority of the female population that Taylor Lautner is one god of a good-looker and I do ogle but, no, I do not have paedophilic fantasies about him (he's only 17), nor do I wish to marry him (that position's taken ;) ). He's simply a good-looking and buff actor. Period.
