Farewell, My Old Friend 2009

Currently Listening To: Michael Jackson - This Is It

This is it.
The last day of 2009.
Tomorrow, when we wake up 2010 will be greeting us instead.

It has been quite an eventful year.
Not so much for me, but more for the world in general.
A year of ups and downs.

Far too many celebrities passed away this year, most of them from unfortunate incidents.
We lost the King of Pop, Michael Jackson back in June.
Also, Charlie's favourite angel, Farah Fawcett, who died on the same day as MJ.
Just a week ago or so we lost actress Brittany Murphy.
Not to forget Patrick Swayze, our very own dearest Yasmin Ahmad, actress Natasha Richardson...
May they rest in peace, hopefully 2010 will be a better year for the entertainment world.

To be honest with you, I don't recall any...positive events that happened in 2009.
There wasn't any particularly memorable or impressive achievements or milestones, unless Malaysia finally winning some football counts as impressive. Okay, maybe it is impressive but it is extremely insignificant in the grand scheme of all things.

Anyway, 2009 for me wasn't so bad.
Nothing special or exciting, but it certainly wasn't a terrible year.
I can still remember typing last year's 'speech', can't believe that was 365 days ago. It feels like just yesterday.

2009 also marks the year of my Adam Lambert obsession. I think I dedicated about a dozen (or more) blog posts to American Idol and that particular alien from Planet Fierce. I wonder if the new season of AI will inspire me as much as Season 8...January 13th 2010, Starworld Channel 711. Watch people, watch it!

And don't forget Glee, the most awesomest series of 2009! January 20th 2010, again Starworld Channel 711. Watch Glee, non-Gleeks, and Gleeks - watch Glee for the third/fourth/tenth time!

Last year's 'resolutions';

1. Uh......spend less on books lol.
   
2. Right. Get a job, and save up for the NDS! PSP! PS3! Wii! *more wishful thinking*
   
3. Lalalala...*mind goes blank*

Yay at least I did achieve the first resolution.
I did spend less on books.
Almost 20 books less than last year, I believe.
Mission accomplished!
Sadly I did not get a job, so I can't save up for the NDS, PSP, PS3 and Wii...
Nevermind, there's always next year.

2010 will also be my last year at college if all goes well.
Then again that means I'll have to grow up and be an adult and get a job...full-time...earn money...no time for slacking, procrastinating...*shudders*
Not exactly fun.

I think I'll skip making resolutions this time around - it doesn't really help much now, does it? Resolutions are for the enthusiastic and ambitious. And I'm neither enthusiastic nor ambitious bahaha.

So are you ready for 2010?
I sure am...not.

Oh whatever, Happy 2010 people!

Helloooooooooo everyone!
I know it's a little too late, but Merry Christmas to all good souls in the world.
I don't have a reason to blog today, so everything in this post is totally random.

Um um.
Went to Taiping earlier today to visit my uncle.
Gosh. Taiping's one tiny town.
Leave me there one day and I'll go nuts I think.
Where are the malls? Cars? People? =O
I know I'm usually inside more than out, but still. Taiping. Tiny. Scary.

Hmmm. What else.
It's almost the end of 2009! Just. Like. Six days left.
Need to prepare another end-of-the-year speech!

-is hoping for a livelier year ahead-

2010, I have high hopes for you!

Ooooooooh tried some new card game today.
Monopoly cards or something.
Seriously strange game.
Maybe we didn't really understand the rules?
But it's still weird.
Monopoly in card form.
Reminds me of those Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories' card thingies.

Bahahahaha.

-more random laughter-

...

I'm bored =(

*googles monopoly cards*

PS: I'm laaaaaaaaazy right now but I'll post pics of my purple room sometime soon k. Be patient! Sheesh =_= haha.

Not The Avatar I Was Thinking Of

Currently Listening To: Grizzly Bear - Ready Able

Today I watched a movie about blue people.

And other than the blue people, I actually found the movie super cheesy.

I don't know why. Everything's so cliche-ish. Blue people rox.

For the entire duration of the movie, all I could think of was...Final Fantasy.

'Omg lookie there, that looks like Macalania forest.

BLUE PPL! Ronsos and Guados anyone?

OOOOOOH those floating islands are so Final Fantasy XII-ish.

HEY they have machina!

Big giant tree that got destroyed? Whoopee where's Zidane and Garnet...'

So now we need Squall's scowls and Cloud's Buster Sword and then the fantasy will be complete.

To sum it up...GFX FTW!

Remind me to listen to the OST. Sounds very FF-ish too.

Currently Listening To: Glee - Proud Mary

It's that time of the year again, ya know?
Holidays, supposed family time, time for relaxation...
I was suppose to get a job for the hols but guess what?
I'm still unemployed.
Mostly because I have zero motivation to do anything at all.
Motivation where are you?
So I've been sitting at home, moping around, occasionally touching my PS2, and not really onlining either.
Oh. My room's done and all, but it's still a little cluttered.
Will take some pics of it soon.
Sigh.
Life's depressingly boring.
