Adele - Chasing Pavements

Ive made up my mind

dont need to think it over
if im wrong i am right
dont need to look no further
this aint lust i know this is love

but if i tell the world
i'll never say enough
cos it was not said to you
and thats exactly what i need to do
if i end up with you

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place should i leave it there.
should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

i build myself up
and fly around in circles
waiting as my heart drops
and my back begins to tingle
finally could this be it

or should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place should i leave it there.
should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

yeaaah ehh

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads no where,
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place
should i leave it there

should i give up
or should i just keep on chasing pavements
should i just keep on chasing pavements

ohhhh ohh

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere
or would it be a waste
even if i knew my place should i leave it there

should i give up
or should i just keep chasing pavements
even if it leads nowhere

Jakarta Trip 17 - 19 sept

It's been 6 years since my last trip to Jakarta, which is around end of 2004. Nothing much to do in Jakarta. Stayed at Ibis Slipi Hotel, met some friends, hang out around shopping mall, club, attend friends wedding and not to forget............. SHOPPING. hahaha...... well, such a huge changes for the past 6 years. alot of huge building were build, shopping malls and even more CARS now. traffic jam. lol...........

again, nothing much to said. am enjoy the trip even though it was a very short trip. here are some of the pictures.

Happy Birthday Albert & Agus

The night before, we give a birthday surprise for Albert at McDonalds Heeren. just normal birthday celebration before heading home for a good sleep. after a tiring day after my outing at sentosa in the next day. am rushing back home, get changes and went to Albert & Agus Birthday dinner ato Sakura Buffet Sushi at Dhoby Ghaut. Nothing to much to say, the food taste not that good, but i like the Green Bean Soup and the Macha Ice Cream. it's delicious. LOL.... ^o^

oh well, just enjoy the pictures.

Sentosa

after a stress day in the office of a short Saturday work, me and my colleagues went to Sentosa to chill and relax there. Nothing to said much, it was so FUN.

Kuala Lumpur

It's been ages since i graduated from Sunway and left KL. been missing the food and the environment there. oh well, since i got long weekend because of the Singapore National Day. so i decided to have a Nostalgic-self-trip at KL, stayed at Cititel Mid Valley, rent a car and drive around KL from 7 to 9 Aug. the feeling is like fiiiuuuhhh......... everything gone. i just like the places there.

okay, 1st day, i went to Sunway area for the whole day, where my college located, Sunway University College. when i drove around my college area, i saw the Sunway Hospital is well build already, they added some traffic light around, and i just realized the construction for South Quay have not done yet, which they did it since my last 2 semester (2007) until now. i drove inside the complex to update myself with the place. and i stop at this location and took the picture facing my old-school-condo, where i stayed before. it's quite a nice place to chill-out *i think*. lol......

btw, i just found out that Krispy Kreme Doughnuts already open in Sunway Pyramid. i remember last time i asked my friends from Jakarta to buy it for me, just for the doughnuts. lol........ and guess what???........... i saw a huge fairy's wheel inside the shopping mall. OMG. this is crazy. Located at the B3 near Giant build up high until level 3. lol........

Tian Hou Temple and 1Utama is my 2nd day destination where is always went there last time. i will never miss this temple when i went to KL. this temple bring peace in me, and i just love the place. lol.......... after some prayer, i drove to my brother place at cyberjaya to pass him my camera and some shirt that i bought for him. it's been almost half-a-year i never met my bro since this year Chinese New Year. oh well, after that i went to 1utama for my shopping and dining time. Italiannies is my pointed restaurant for my dinner of the day.

oh ya, i always went to Padini Concept Store because that is one of my favorite brand in KL, with the design is not that bad and i can categories the brand as affordable brand. when i walk around jeans area, i saw they used people name for their jeans product. and guess what??........ ALEX is appointed as one of the Low-Rise-Straight-Jeans for Padini. well, this is not important, just FYI. lol......

Not to forget, after 1utama, before i go back to hotel, i stop at Murni SS2, one of my favorite supper place ever. they don't have proper menu on the table, anything you want, just said it out to the waiter. they will get it for you. lol........ my most favorite appetite is their Hawaiian. my most favorite drinks is Mango Special, and for the complete supper, i ordered Mie Raja. Mie Raja is somehow like fried-dried-wanton mie. but too bad, i forgot to take picture. because am too hungry. lol..........

oh well, my last days i cannot enjoy the full day because i have to go back with the evening bus trip, 4pm at Dorsett Hotel. early morning after wake up, i just walk around mid valley and went to bukit bintang area for relaxing. went to Pavilion, Sungei Wang, and Lot 10. i saw a huge changes with the environment around that area. all the people walk on the street, not at the pedestrian cross. traffic jam all way long. and lots of shopping mall-upgrade-construction going on.

oh well, i just posted some of the picture in my BLOG. so, just have a look there for complete pictures.

The One With "I Hate My Mom" Story

This is a short story about a boy in China, that hates his mom so much because his mom only got one eye.

There is one small family live happily in Shanghai, China. Daddy, Mommy, and the child, Guo Rui. Since He (guo Rui) start school, his friends make fun of him because his mom only have one eye. Because of this, the whole school's students make him so embarrassed. He start to blame his mom every single day, keep blaming blaming and blaming. His mom cried every single day because the kid was not happy, and not enjoy his childhood time.

once upon a time after he graduate from his college, he move to Singapore to work. just to run away from the past. after 4 years, his mom come and visit him in Singapore, because He never give any calls or any update to his mom. His mom so happy because Guo Rui already married and have 2 beautiful daughter. But the outcome, he even hate his mom, because the kids scared of their granny face. At the end, Guo Rui chase his mom back to China.

times flies. After few years, he got a business trip to Shanghai. Few days after his trip, he went back to his house and he found out that his mom was passed away and the house was being sold 1 year ago. His mom left a letter to Guo Rui and she wrote; "Son, i am so happy to see you grow up from small kid to a successful business man with 2 beautiful daughter. I'm sorry that i make you embarrassed in front of your friends in the past. when you still 2 and 1/2 years old, we all in a car accident and take your dad's life away. you lost 1 of your eye and i cannot see you not happy when you grow up because of that. so, i go for surgery to give one of my eye for you my son."

The one with After Shock

Here come another movie that can make me so touched and make me open my eye even bigger for the environment and people around me. After Shock, directed by 52-year-old Feng Xiaogang, a household name known mostly for his popular romantic comedies, is a tear-jerker about a family torn apart by the 1976 Tangshan earthquake and reunited years later in the aftermath of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.

A True Story based movie created is to recall a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck the industrial city in north China on July 28, 1976, which was believed to be one of the deadliest natural disasters of the 20th century and is estimated to have killed over 240,000 people. That was also when the decade-long Cultural Revolution started to peter out, shortly before strongman Mao Zedong died and a few months before the Gang of Four were arrested.

Despite what’s been called its touching script and skillful acting, the film has not only moved audiences to tears but also has drawn criticism about its lack of soul searching about what exactly happened 34 years ago.

And again, i cried because of this movie. And this movie reminds me of my mom. for whoever who read this, keep this sentence in your mind. whatever your mom tell you, whether it is nice or hurtful, happy or sad, inside her heart, you're still her child, and She still LOVE you whatever you are, FOREVER.

Here is the trailer of the movie.

Despicable Me

Just came back from the movie at Iluma. what i can say about Despicable Me is COOL, FUNNY, and CUTE. Oh ya, just found out that this is universal studio's production. Even though the graphic is not as great as Pixar Production, but i don't care. it was great and funny movie. I think "Despicable Me" is one of the summer's biggest success stories, along with "Toy Story 3". btw, a person who came across my mine when i saw Gru is Rowan Atkinson in Mr.Bean. Curious? go and watch the movie then. lol.........

Well, some of the synopsis of the movie: In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden deep beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by an army of tireless, little yellow minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universals new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me.

Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.

One of the worlds greatest super-villains has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.

My Rating: ***** (9/10)

so, here's the trailer of Despicable Me.
