(okay not really, but you get the idea ^^ )
A new paper has been released, showing shocking truth that may and will affect the very lives of our future's foundation - our youths.
it was found that:
homework (a lot) + extra curricular activities (no. of hours) + STRESS
= late nights
= lack of sleep
= fatigue
= inability to keep up in class + laziness
= drop in studies
= drop in grades
= bad results (+ possible depression)
Following the announcement of the research, the world has been in upro..."
Sigh.
I f o n l y .
ONWARDS! To the pile of dooming study and revision! May the odds be ever in my (and your) favour!
(help!)
I personally love the singing, the song and the story.
The story is obvious yet ambiguous enough for people to fill in their own thoughts and stories for the people.
It is all up to interpretation, bu still leaves the overall same message.
To me, it is about how many many, so manyof us , hide our feelings, try to suppress them. The happy ones are left alone, locked up, due to fear, vulnerability and fear of it. Sad, angry, negative feelings are also repressed, but sometimes, we just can't contol the emotions that burst out as tears or laughter.
The NamelessFaceless BadGuy ends up hiding his irritation and anger behind "nice" smiles, Pierrot hides his pain and sorrows with anitcs and magic tricks to make oths happier.
At the end, Pierrot tries to comfort her, falling into routine, but he soon breaks out in tears. Those tears to me are not just the sadness and pain he stored up from all his past, but also some kind of burst of happiness and freedom.
Finally free to let out emotions.
Sunday, May 20, 2012 @ comics to movies (3) there's always one.
having recently watched Ironman 1 & 2 ,
I've got some things i have to say.
1) First, during the scene in Iron man 1, where the other physicist (whom i can't get the name right now. opps. ) is lying there, and saying he will be going to meet his family now (so that's what he meant by, "I will see them when i leave this place" ) and tells Stark not to waste his life?
I was struck by this weird notion.
Somehow, in almost every Super Hero's "life" there will be a point (usually in his first "adventure") that a wise guy gives wise advice and then dies.
No?
Spiderman? Wise advice from wise guy who dies. Check.
Ironman? Wise advice from wise guy who dies. Check.
many more...
I guess the wise guys who do give advice that is super wise needs to die or nearly die or something along those lines in order for the Hero to finally learn and heed the advice.
wow.
Being a Hero is tough.
2) Next, is I was rather disappointed that the ultimate fight between the Russian guy and Stark and Rhodey (why did they change the actor?) lasted so short only.
But i guess they have to be short otherwise fans of Stark would be disappointed as to why their idol isn't his usual smart and intelligent guy, to be able to think of a way to defeat the Russian guy (and i still can't remember his name. ) quickly.
Saturday, May 19, 2012 @ comics to movies (2) Avengers
woots!
okay I have to get this out, even though, on this world wide web, there is probably more than 1 million others that have already odne so.
IT IS AWESOME.
Haha, i can't even begin to describe which parts i like best. There are just too many.
I like that in this movie, the heroes all come together, and they manage to make sure all of them get at least a moment of their own.
From Black Widow's plain awesome skills at fighting and getting in fo outa people, to Hawkeye's ability to shoot and aim from behind his back, to Hulk's indestructibility , Thor's strength and stupidity to fall for Loki's tricks over and over again.
Hmm, i guess in this round, Captain America was kinda useless. I think the only good he was for was his experience in war time and army , hence he was able to give orders... but other than that, he was pretty much not needed.
Loki is just too sad. Forever doomed to fail. Epicly.
-sighs and shakes head-
The scene where he goes on an Evil Mastermind Rant and then totally gets owned by the Hulk keeps replaying in my head. Poor Loki. He just laid there stunned after that. You puny puny god. You should not play with the Hulk.
Recently, I have been on a Marvel Comics Movies "marathon"
So, I've now been through, Avengers, Thor, Ironman, Ironman 2.
Now, i am aiming to complete Cap'n America and the new Spiderman - who, by the way, seems way much cooler than the old trilogy one (or more than 3?) , best thing - its story seems to follow the comic AND the character also seems to be following the comic!
I mean, from the trailers i have seen, he has that witty banter that he uses a lot in the comic and is actually a smart person who invented web thingy, with better use of his spider sense.
When the first few old Spiderman movies came out, it was cool, but also a bit saddening. Not disappointing say, but "saddening" seems to be the only word. The guy seems to be a bit, wee bit, eh, wimpy?
-checks dictionary-
hmm wimp: (noun)
someone not brave, strong, or confident.
Hmmm, so yeah. Sorry but that is my impression. But still any Spiderman movie is already funtastic.
Friday, May 18, 2012 @ .. and so the journey begins.
la gasp.
This be the second major revamp.
I guess it no longer is a vampire but a zombie vampire? or does twice a vampire negate , resulting in a human? o.o
Ah yes, I know, I have sufficiently frosen you with such ice freezing jokes. (how do you freeze ice? )
Q1) I plan to (hopefully) use this blog to:
a) further my language skills,
b) use as an outlet for my cold jokes,
c) rant about the current things that just are thought provoking,
d) refer to c)
e) why are you even still reading this?
So enough of the cow pooping, i shall proceed on and update when i do have something reasonable to post.
Did you know coke (yes as in Coca Cola ) original colour is green?
