bah! but it's not gun metal

lovely. :)

yesterday was lydia's 21st birthday party.
and the theme was rainbows.
haha, my first ever party! ok no lah not first. now that i think about it, it's my second.
i went for yvonne's party a while back too. haha.
bu anyway, when she send the sms, i was thinking...
"hmmm, so wear what huh? can wear my usual rubbish clothes or issit some atas thing?"
in the end i tried not to dress to shabbily....but guess it wasn't good enough eh?
went as brown cos brown is technically a rainbow colour cos i figure every colour exists somewhere in the rainbow, if not the distinct ones then the ones inbetween the distinct ones.
but well, turns out i was the muddddd more than the rainbow huh... i'm the mud that comes about when it rains that will bring the rainbow. haha.
everybody wear nice nice loh. the girls wear pretty pretty and the guys wear handsum handsum and i look at them and think....
"hmmmm, they look nice in their fancy clothes....but i kinda skpiied that stage in my life huh?"
heh. "skipped" is right eh?
kind of the age when you learn to dress up you know? from upper sec right til before you're middle-aged?
the age when u try to be hip and happening and wear socially accepted clothing and style your hair and buy and don accecessories and buy trendy clothes and slip on snazzy shoes. hah. i jumped straight from primary skool ginna to retiree cant-be-bothered-ness. what happened to that bit inbetween kind of got lost to neverwear ba.
neverwear is the parallel universe to neverwhere where all the trendy fashion sense in people go to after they pass the age.
either that or all my trendiness got lost in my brother, the ball. maybe he took all mytrendy genes.
which would explain his inexplicable incomprehensible trendiness at such a young age.
so, erh.....maybe some people would just like to be mudd with me?
those people who just cant be bothered to be the rain or the rainbow. just join the mudddddmen. it's alot easier.
just that you feel kinda out of place when you're with the rest of rainbow society i guess.
but that's the price to pay for a cheap and ugly wardrobe huh?
maybe i should get invited to parties more. can observe this again....

bah!
those imps sure put up a strong resistance on the marberry coastline!
still, our forces managed to sweep through and wipe them out thanks to innovative use of the smoke screen rounds...
however our victory was short-lived as we lost one of our dearest comrades to a stray bullet soon after we captured the enemy camp.
chi. we're going to make them pay....that's for sure!
the captain's been nice though...guess she wants us to stop dwelling on the loss and remember what we're fighting for.
that's why our last scrap with the enemy was back in bruhl....
yes, bruhl, the home we left 5 months ago.
with the new inclusion of the shamrock, the enemy didn't stand a chance. i'd almost call it the perfect demonstration blitzkrieg. they didn't even know what hit them.
though now it seems that after these minor victories one after the other, the empire's getting impatient.
intel informs us that there's going to be a major clash on the naggiar plains.
probably one of the biggest battles yet...
one that will claim many lives...even possibly mine.
i've cheated death on numerous occasions..but for how long will i be able to continue doing so? i fear the worst. not just for myself but for the squad too...
i can only hope that no one get badly wounded in this battle...
guess we'll have to see what tomorrow holds...
but for now, i think i shall retire to my bed to rest up for the night and for the battle to come...

now, i am the happy owner of

the shawshank redemption(blu-ray)
the curious case of benjamin button(blu-ray)

(chose this over v for vendetta and wanted, simply cos it's earlier. i would like the other 2 just as well.)

5. an animated film - up (because it's the first animated film that made me cry)(i would choose shrek for laughs though..haha)

6. a christopher nolan show - the dark knight (over the prestige(this was a hard decision) because heath ledger is the joker)

8. an imba english show - taken. (haha! who else is as imba as bryan mills(apart from ip man...that's why he's next)? maybe jason

10. a world war 2(fighting) show - saving private ryan.

11. a world war 2(non-fighting) show - life is beautiful(over schindler's list because this show had laughter. maybe on other days

12. a samurai show(which also happens to be a yoji yamada show) - love and honour(over twilight samurai over hidden blade, but all still good)

13. a clint eastwood show - gran torino (because he sings! (over mystic river over letters over million dollar baby))

14. a crime show - se7en (over mystic river over collateral over the usual suspects over l.a. confidential cos it's grittier)

18. a jap show - depatures (over love letter over be with you(haha, actually cant decide...but themes different la))

19. an anime - a ghibli show (cos all are good. just get a collection la. haha. but if must choose, grave of the fireflies for serious show, akira for sci-fi, and whisper of the heart for light hearted(tsuiokuhen dun count cos it's not a movie per se))
