i went for the air force pilot test today at CMPB. and after today, i know that i'm destined for the navy, for the army, for anything that's ground by gravity and doesn't go up into the sky. i mean the test went pretty fine at first, i could read directions and that kind of stuff, interpreting all the meter readings on the computer generated dashboard with ease. and then came the weird (but obvious stuff) like actually FLYING a freaking plane. using a joystick (and i always thought it was by a steering wheel, or buttons like a controller for a console game), we were meant to fly through this string of squares, and before each round (there were 3) the computer would say "you should aim to better your score on a scale of 1-10". guess what? i remained at 1 for all 3 trials. this is why i never made it into a sport and why i never do well at games like CS, pool, etc. i'm landlocked, baby!
oh and that wasn't all, there was this test where we had to control target crosshairs that were designed to deviate off centralisation WHILE listening with a keen ear for discrepancies in a countdown a la Arithmetic Progression WHILE keeping a lookout for a coloured shape marked with a specific number on the other side of the screen. actually, i should have gone home the moment the tester said " blah blah blah
psychomotor blah blah blah " because that is definitely not one of my natural-born talents.
and why on earth would i need to know what a stupid cube looks like when folded from a cutout. these questions always annoy me. they tested that for the stupid GEP selection tests too! and i couldn't get them. spatial patterns just aren't my thing. and the where's wally-styled tesselation basic shape search in a mess of lines was very annoying too. what with the countdown. and the stupid grid where we were supposed to match colours and shapes that kept changing at a regular basis. these tests aren't fun at all. they're tedious. oh there was ONE fun test where we had to get as high a score as possible through this line-growing game. ok never mind it doesn't make sense but i had fun playing that.
and then there was this WEIRD section where they gave a manual with instructions in it to follow. the unfortunate thing is, i had no idea what the stuff on the screen was getting at. full of technical terms that reminded me of logic gates (eek.) in Sec4 and aeronautical jargon. like ok they told me to type in the given error code but there's none? just weird graphs that on retrospect had names that reminded me of cations. Alsr2+ or some nonsensical rubbish like that. ok i don't think anyone even understands what i'm talking about cos i don't even understand it myself. that whole segment was plain greek gibberish to me, and weird is an understatement.
oh well. i did so want to be a pilot, it seemed real fun. but all that techie stuff's not for me. velocity, visualisation, eye-hand coordination, etc. and various other knick-knacks. that's the kind of stuff that we never see, which gives us the impression that it's simple pie. but really, it ain't that easy as a PS2 game. and there went the whole of today.
----
i am very fearful of returning to school tomorrow. i did put in some effort this time (obviously not enough - but hey i did try!) but the fact remains that i did not perform for prelims. and how are the teachers going to view that? obviously negatively, cos i've never done exceptionally well throughout my stay here. to them, it'll just look like i'm slacking as usual and this will probably cement a few of them's hate for me. oh well.
not a very good thing to happen, actually. and yes i know it's over and that i should just accept whatever comes. there really is no excuse for failure, but who said facing the music was ever easy?

i watched 4 movies in 3 days. a bit of an overkill, i think i've had my fill of shows to last me quite a bit. if you don't like reading reviews, you can uh. stop reading. but it's worth it, at least you know what to watch, and what not to watch. do keep in mind that the reviews aren't made in isolation but rather relative to each other, and it also depends on the price. so, in chronological order since the day prelims ended-
The Longest Yard (wednesday afternoon, $7.50) 5.5/10this wasn't bad, because it passed. but it was pretty pointless. like brian said, the premise is quite impossible. if anything, i think prison inmates in America wouldn't be practising for some game against the guards, although then again if you ask me it seems like the exact kind of pointless 'creative' marketing tactic Americans are likely to come up with to get more people to watch a match.
everything was about media-whoring. the mayor-wannabe or whoever he was, head prison man seemed to be all nice at first but that facade quickly crumbled away as it was revealed that he wanted to exploit the prisoners for his own political agenda. Adam Sandler as usual does well at comedy, so no complaints there. the cliches abounded, including the sissy effeminate prisoners, but they played it well. even the HT-like superannuated secretary was good too. so why am i rating this so low? i had a huge problem with the turn-around and comeback at the end. even if we suspend our disbelief and accept that such a situation could even take place to begin with, i cannot accept the instant change in attitude that the chief warden had at the end of the match, it was ridiculous. that immediately lowered the stock of the show. but thumbs up to portrayal of prison politics, eg smuggling of luxury goods (cheeseburgers!).
and really, i think a more accurate representation of a texan security facility would have been a gay porn film lasting one and a half hours, and even though i would usually put any form of erotica as a sub-division under comedy, it definitely doesn't go under the PG rating.
The Myth (wednesday night, free) 3.5/10even though it cost me nothing to watch this, and by right i should get more utility from it, opportunity costs shot through the roof with this. the next best alternative was really anything else that i could have done with that time. HORRIBLE. firstly, i didn't even get to watch the full show thanks to hadri who came at 7.30 when it was supposed to start at 7. so maybe i missed out some super-important bit at the beginning. although i highly doubt it. this being a jackie chan flick, the stunts were good, loved the battle scene where there was one man against an army. he obviously lost, unlike the lead in
A Bittersweet Life. but well. and the fight on the conveyor belt was humorous to say the least, but it was obviously inserted to show off the indian female lead (i forgot her name) who never appeared again later. and you know all hot female leads need to strip at some point in time or another.
which really irks me. the indian subplot had so much promise, but it was chucked out for no good reason. what's the point of including something just for the sake of being exotic and different if it's only a token gesture?! plot tried to cover too many things in too short a time. got too preachy and annoying for me. and i believe that discomfort with a language hampers acting ability and credibility. this is why people like pierre png should stay on channel 5. a clumsy grasp on speaking a language makes one sound like a 5-year-old or a retard. similarly, jackie was laughable in english, indian female lead's frequent "oh my god!" (subtitled too, no less) ejaculations were sacrilegious and Americanized in a religious sect tucked away in some corner of the subcontinent.
the film did have some good ideas and noble ambitions (immortality and the like) when it first started out, but unfortunately the ineptitude of the director and the actors hampered greatly the possible success of this movie. the way the show wrapped up so nicely in a
happily ever after ali baba close the book and look into the sky feel was nauseating. huge deflationary gap, full level of employment far off.
A Bittersweet Life (thursday night, $8) 8.5/10what's not to love about this? this korean-inspired mafioso masterpiece deserved to go to cannes. unfortunately there wasn't much buzz about it in singapore i believe, which is really sad. this is one of those rare times that i'm annoyed with the Hollywood Deluge of Mediocrity (normally i don't care), because it washes away productions that aren't steeped and rooted in moolahs of marketing. the soundtrack that wraps around the narrative is dark and moody, just like the lead (Lee Byung Hyun) whose life takes a total downward spiral after some wrong choices.
i think one of the reasons why this movie works so well is because of the foreign language. (that means you can't watch this, eugene!) because of the subtitling, some important information might be leaked out by accident. but that's alright, because the story still flows along smoothly with ambiguity in motivations, which leads to a myriad of interpretations for the seemingly strange actions of certain individuals. cinematography is peppered with symbols, a bit like
2046 but hardly as draggy or highbrow.
plotwise, it seems to remind me of
Kill Bill (how ironic that i have to refer to a Hollywood film in making analogies) where the protagonist exacts cold-blooded revenge methodically and cold-heartedly against those who were stupid enough to cross paths with them earlier on, not excluding those who used to be close and intimate. style-wise it's very harsh and even though dark humour is peppered throughout the show, there were parts that were very disturbing and i got a
Dawn of the Dead vibe (hence the M18 rating)
the reviews are right in saying that the show adds nothing much to the mafia genre, but it's fine because of the
hot cast way the story was told. there isn't much love or happiness, just plenty of chilling efficiency. but when we delve under the surface, we see that everyone is human and fraught with flaws. and that there isn't always a happy ending. it wouldn't make sense anyway.
Cinderella Man (friday afternoon, $8) 7/10i know awhile back i was eagerly awaiting this. and it did seem like somewhat of a disappointment. i love renee cos she's cute, but sometimes she gets too overly cute which is a problem too. even one of her sluttiest roles, in
Chicago as Roxie Hart was too saccharine for some. and i personally didn't bother much for the fight scenes. you see one, you've seen 'em all. they were all pretty run of the mill, although i never knew until i watched the show that boxers were allowed to touch each other in the ring, to the point of hugging.
what i liked more were the family scenes. those were touching, and really pushed up the points for this show. however the family, apart from its poverty was a bit TOO perfect for my liking. i thought renee was a pretty good mom who had the usual PMS-outbursts at the right time, and hopelessly devoted to her hero husband. russell was flawless, never getting angry, humble at all times, winning the support of all. didn't seem too realistic to me, but i guess a dramatization of history tends to idealise or scandalise things one way or the other too much, by adding the human touch to historical figures and characters.
someone once said, but i forgot who - why bother to read books when you know the ending. like romeo and juliet, you know they're going to die anyway. same thing applies to plays and movies. why should one bother to do that. you know James Braddock (Russell Crowe) is going to win and triumph ultimately, but what's important is the process, and how we're shown it. i love the support his wife gave him, and his determination for the children, who were SO KEWT! i guess watching this show, one knows the ending will be uplifting and inspiring anyway (and not in a corny fashion like
The Longest Yard), so it's good if one needs some kind of assurance in life, whatever that may be.

been reading em forster's
aspects of the novel in an attempt to attune my mind to higher levels of literary study for the paper in a few hours time. the guy is a genius. the way he dissects the art form of the novel is amazing, comparing it and putting it alongside life. however, what's the point of understanding the technical infrastructure of the elements that make up a novel, when you have no actual examples to really do so? actually i don't even know why i'm reading it now, when i would rather work on plays and poetry. doesn't really apply there, although he does criticize drama at some points.
Any strong emotion brings with it the illusion of permanenceHomo Sapiens and Homo Fictus... They are people whose secret lives are visible or might be visible; we are people whose secret lives are invisible.-------from

You work hard,
seeking success.
You are self-sufficient and in spite of all the trials and tribulations that have beset you in the past you carry on regardless. You are one to be admired because you pursue your objectives single-mindedly and with initiative. You know that you can 'do it' and what is more, you will - without necessarily being dependent upon the goodwill of others.
Most people are conditioned by their environment and you are no exception. You are an extremely emotional person - so much so that 'the wrong word' can lead you to tears. You feel other people's pain. You feel the need of sympathetic relationships and a pleasant work environment in order to develop and grow. You are an impulsive, loving individual with a great deal of inherent feeling.
Conditions are rather confusing at this time. You would like to involved with a particular person or a particular situation but you are holding back. You find it difficult to make a decision.
As of late, you have been experiencing untold stress and this is a result of continuous frustration. You haven't been taking care of all your physical needs and it's beginning to show (pimples!). It would seem that you have a need to find someone to whom you can really relate - someone perhaps whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to be individualistic - to stand out from the common herd. Your inherent control of your sensual instincts is restricting your ability to give yourself to open up freely but this being on your own, being lonely, often makes you feel the need to give up some of your strict standards to surrender to the general flow - to be like everyone else; a part of the herd. Deep down you regard such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome. You would like to be loved or admired for yourself alone. You demand recognition and tender loving care.
You are afraid that you may not be able to realize or achieve your hopes and desires and so you insist that people should accept you as you are and appreciate your rights to anything that you aspire to.

wth! taken from
madonnanation"
Frozen was also subject to some interesting side news -- mainly in the form of so-called 'internet piracy.' Since,
for some reason, Madonna's new songs always seem to premiere in rather obscure parts of the world, particularly Singapore, one website owner recorded the song off the radio weeks before its intended US release, and posted a sound file for the song online. While it was a major treat for Madonna fans, it got this guy in some deep trouble, and made international news reports, heating up the debate on full-length song files on the web. The silly thing is that the sound file was of such poor quality (recorded off the radio) that anyone who was curious enough to spend the time downloading the file would almost definitely buy it as soon as it was available. If anything, this website owner was increasing demand and adding that much-sought-after industry 'buzz.' "

this, apparently is the album cover for madonna's
confessions on a dancefloor album, due in november. hmmm. mixture of influences here. pink heels remind me of mrs perry. pink hotpants look kylie-inspired. the hair seems transplanted from bree van der kamp of

prelims are almost over. well ok it feels like they've ended, but that's not true. there's still econs MCQ+DRQ+CaseStudy and S paper. the worst is over though, especially today's papers. i think the school admin was kinda silly to put 6 hours worth of writing at one shot. ok not really at one shot but still, lit and history in the same day?! (mr K wong : i know.. but we're on a tight schedule) after awhile i just got sick of writing, my hand ached and cramped, so i wrote slower.. and slower. i didn't bother to let my hand fly anymore. what was the point?
my prelims are going to be a huge joke.
sure, they won't be in the FUC(k)ED range (on second thoughts..) but i'm quite sure that they'll be the worst in my whole JC career. which is kinda funny, because by right it's supposed to be the best. i am relaxing now, the late nights have taken their toll. but i am definitely not looking forward to going back to school for post-mortem and the like, having teachers read out the scores and marks and knowing that everyone else improved by leaps and bounds because they actually bothered to study this time around but i didn't put in my full effort.. not only that, i don't want to have to hear the caustic remarks from one, nor have another heart-to-heart session asking me "wtf are you doing", or see the disappointment in another's eyes or in the tone of voice. i don't want to feel guilty that way. i know their paycheck is somewhat reliant on my results but you know. it's my life, i don't need emotional blackmail. i'm sorry, ok. but don't practice double standards and tell us that it's our life and that we're the ones taking the exam if worrying about your bonus is on the back of your mind. i don't want the insinuations and loosely dropped hints that i should drop a subject either, i just- gah i should have just studied harder.
well of course things might not happen that way because either (i) i was lying to mindfuck everyone or more likely (ii) God still cares for me despite my refusal to go to church for the past 3 years and He decided to give me a little surprise.
and there were a lot of times during the papers when my mind just went blank. now if you're in science, and doing physhits or something you could just randomly choose given values from the question to put in some formula dug up from the recesses of your mind, and everything'll be fine. no such luck in the humanities. you can't rewrite history, create literature, or magically derive economic theories. bah. some time ago i told derrick how lousy i was in macroecons, and that i was better at the micro aspect of the subject. he was surprised, almost disbelieving. he thought that it was an arts student's thang to be better at macroecons. guess maybe i really should have taken science after all huh, especially without that scholarship..

Survivor that i could watch at night! and the Guatemalan ruins are pretty cool, especially the tribal council area where they have to climb to the top of this sacrifical tower or something where the voting booth is. finally, no more annoying whispered confessionals! bobbyjon and stephenie are hot as usual.. ok nevermind no one understands this fanboy's ramblings.

the recently concluded
project superstar on channel U has been quite interesting, given the winner. i applaud the revised voting system that sets it apart from the
idol franchise, according a certain percentage of the contestants' points via judges comments and the rest being the voting public's responsibility. however, even with the judges' overwhelming support for kelly (the female finalist), weilian (the male finalist) still won.
i don't think he would have made it that far if he weren't blind. face it, it's a novelty. while he sings pretty decently he doesn't look that good. isn't that what being a superstar is about? good looks and all. but people always root for the underdog, so good on him. personally, i think kelly should have won. she carries herself better, she can dance without fear of falling off the stage, she looks better, she outperformed him at the finals. but sadly, the public was blinded (pun somewhat intended) by his tenacity and determination.
while those are admirable traits, i don't think that's what we base superstardom on. the word
superstar conjures images of glitz, glamour and good looks. not true grit and gumption. if you were to call him an "idol", i might agree but he doesn't fit the "superstar" title. but well, i guess the television people were really smart to include him. it generates controversy, it creates a sob-story. but doesn't that make it unfair, giving him an added advantage. given normal circumstances, someone else would have made it instead of him (i don't know exactly WHO, i only watched the finale)
then again, in situations like so, one has to use anything available to one's advantage. if you're chio, ham it up for the cameras; if you're rich, call in for yourself or bribe others too. why should being blind be any different? it's just another attribute that some have, and others don't. since it's there, might as well use it. while i'm sure weilian didn't mean to and doesn't intend to exploit his handicap, it served him well all the same. similarly, the adage "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade" applies.
whatever our lot in life is, we should try to make the best of it. acceptance, and how we move on from there is important. (eek so silas marner!)

the
apple store seems to have disowned the iPod mini like a prodigal son with runaway sales. maybe they stopped production of it. anyhow, the iPod nano's tagline is "impossibly small". i say it's impossibly flimsy. it looks very easy to break it in two. something that's pencil-thin (that's no exaggeration) can't be too strong. while it looks very chic and petite and desirable, i think i'm still happy with my mini (that goes on rebellions ever so often) for the time being... or maybe not. it's in FREAKING COLOUR. maybe it IS the iPod mini, version 2.0. capacity's about the same after all. I WANT I WANT I WANT.
and my musical taste has now evolved into an appreciation for dancey eurotrash. i guess i was always open to anything.
the statcounter numbers are interesting. cos apparently i'm getting more viewers these days. maybe it's the hols. but still! what are you people doing here! go mug! go study! go CRAM! for prelims and promos! shoo shoo shoo what are you doing still reading this?! you don't want to end up like me. you have EXAMS.

FUCK
ED for prelims. hmm maybe those might end up as my grades. (U for S paper) i hereby thank God that i was born a boy, and therefore my prelims don't matter as much in the long-run.
in the ABBA mood lately, mostly cos madonna's new song
hung up samples their
gimme gimme gimme, with its highstrung whistle-flutes that give a mountainous feel (?!). you can download some of the clips
here, she's all set to rule the charts again! oh gosh, why do i even bother posting that link when i know no one's gonna bother clicking it.
anyway, the song reminds me of this poem that edward de cruz went through about say, 4 years ago? hmm. i think Wordsworth would have been shocked out of his wits if the highland lass in question suddenly started cavorting about the wheat fields sluttily pining for him.
comparisons, below.
THE SOLITARY REAPER
by: William Wordsworth (1770-1850)BEHOLD her, single in the field,
Yon solitary Highland Lass!
Reaping and singing by herself;
Stop here, or gently pass!
Alone she cuts and binds the grain,
And sings a melancholy strain;
O listen! for the Vale profound
Is overflowing with the sound.
No Nightingale did ever chaunt
More welcome notes to weary bands
Of travellers in some shady haunt,
Among Arabian sands:
A voice so shrilling ne'er was heard
In spring-time from the Cuckoo-bird,
Breaking the silence of the seas
Among the farthest Hebrides.
Will no one tell me what she sings?--
Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow
For old, unhappy, far-off things,
And battles long ago:
Or is it some more humble lay,
Familiar matter of to-day?
Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,
That has been, and may be again?
Whate'er the theme, the Maiden sang
As if her song could have no ending;
I saw her singing at her work,
And o'er the sickle bending;--
I listen'd, motionless and still;
And, as I mounted up the hill,
The music in my heart I bore,
Long after it was heard no more.

Gimme Gimme Gimme by: ABBAHalf past twelve
and I'm watchin' the late show
in my flat all alone
how I hate to spend
the evening on my own
autumn winds
blowin' outside the window
as I look around the room
and it makes me so
depressed to see the gloom
there's not a soul out there
no one to hear my prayer
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
A man after midnight
take me through the darkness
to the break of the day
Movie stars
find the end of the rainbow
with a fortune to win
it's so different from
the world I'm living in
tired of TV
I open the window
and I gaze into the night
but there's nothing there to see
no one in sight
there's not a soul out there
no one to hear my prayer

at the time of opening this window, and semi-wondering why i'm blogging, i noticed this:
whilst getting mad at my brother for leaving condensed droplets from his cup of cold water (that an asthmatic like him shouldn't even be drinking, so that i have full monopoly over the iced water jug in the refrigerator) that neglected to have a coaster which resulted in smudged circles of pink and cyan on my AJC econs practice paper; and
trick me by kelis (how apt. transparent liquid doesn't appear very well on dark surfaces) starts playing on my ipod, and i only have 2 thoughts.
1. reminds me of the decadent times in j1
2. reminds me of firas' party at his house earlier this year

You scored as Postmodernist.
Postmodernism is the belief in complete open interpretation. You see the universe as a collection of information with varying ways of putting it together. There is no absolute truth for you; even the most hardened facts are open to interpretation. Meaning relies on context and even the language you use to describe things should be subject to analysis.

and Cinderella Man looks like a really good movie, and that's not even considering the fact that it features one of my most favourite actresses. unfortunately, it opens on 15th september, right in the middle of the prelims, just after math paper 2. which means i'd still have another 5 papers to go. maybe i can watch it during that weekend, because by then english and history would be over as well, and i'd only have Senglish (no, not a variation of singlish) and econs MCQ + DRQ left. the worst'd be over by then.
