Bah! TQ very much, Honey!!!

I LOVE U!!

Disclaimer : This entry is strictly the personal opinion of the writer, hence the excessive use of the words ‘I THINK’.

I think Twilighters can be can be categorized into two groups. One group is made of all those fans who are choosing between Team Edward and Team Jacob, while the other group is made of those who are choosing between Team Robert and Team Taylor.

I also believe that the first group (Team Edward & Team Jacob) were/will be disappointed with the movie(s) and the second group (Team Rob & Team Taylor) love/will love the movie(s).

Usually, the first group are also ppl who have read the book(s) looooong before the first movie was released and that’s why they fell in love with the character instead of the actors. I am Team Edward and [owh no, Team Rob is going to shoot me!] after two movies, I am still disappointed over RP. I thought this time around he would manage to pull it off, to become Edward enough, just like how TL became Jacob but NO, i think he looks much better in the first movie! I really feel like closing my eyes when i saw RP shirtless.. very very the EWWW!!!

I do admit that overall, New Moon is actually better than Twilight… maybe because the CGIs are better and the scenes were more natural. Castings for new characters have also been done properly, and i think that’s why all of the new characters (Volturi, Wolf pack, Jane, Felix, Demetri, Harry Clearwater, Etc) fit the description in the book perfectly.

Owh and I think Ashley Greene has also turn into the perfect Alice Cullen! The looks, the attitude and the walk are all Alice! two thumbs up for Ashley Greene

Now, come to think of it, seems like my disappointment actually has nothing to do with the movie itself, kan? i do know that it is impossible to include all the details in the book into a 2hr movie. i am actually disappointed with the casts! – except the new ones la..

so let’s see…

Bella Swan :

Edward Cullen : Still . (Seriously, Team Rob is going to kill me!).

Charlie Swan :

Carlisle Cullen :

Esme Cullen :

Emmet Cullen : . He looks much better in the 1st movie. In new moon, he looks ordinary. Emmet is supposed to be huge and looks very strong!

Rosalie Hale : . She’s suppose to be very very very beautiful!

Alice Cullen :

Jasper Hale : . i dunno but in new moon, he looks like Edward Scissorhands to me… owh, and for those who haven’t read the book, they wouldn’t know that Jasper can actually control the emotions of ppl around him.

Jacob Black :

Billy Black :

Laurent :

Victoria :

Jessica, Eric, Mike, Angela :

Hmm… now, i’m not sure if i’m really looking forward to Eclipse, but at least i’ve learnt not to keep my hopes high..

Now I can “phew!!”

yesterday, hubby went to “the kindy” and get the reg form. since the kindy also has a playschool [2-4 yrs old], we thought that it would be more convenient to send xavier there too so that we don’t have to go to 2 diff schools to send / pick them up.

last night, i filled in the forms (excitedly) and this afternoon, we went to submit them. i’ve never been to the school before and when we get thr, i immediately fell in love with it. the teachers are very friendly and nice. the buildings and classrooms are beautifully decorated. when the kids parents came to pick them up, the teachers will walk them to the car and even open the car door for them so i’m pretty sure my kids will be safe.

i’m really glad i chose the school and i hope my kids will love Tzu Yu Kindergarten too…

Ooh.. and btw, Ellone is registered in the same class as Jimonon, my good friend Joyce’s nephew..

the past few months have been hectic, so welcomed November with a smile from ear to ear and with two widely open arms… running across the field of soft green grass in slow-mo, twinkles in my eyes, colourful butterflies flying all around me.. rainbows in the sky… i was about to stop and smell the roses… suddenly i stubbed my feet on a tree root that protruded out of nowhere, tripped and fell face first to the ground!

wake up, silly!

turned out, November is no different than the months before. to make matters worse, i’ve just realized that i haven’t registered my daughter for any kindy yet! Tried to check out the (chinese) kindy closest to home but they’re already full, even the waiting list is full

finally decided to call one that is closer to hubby’s office. TG, they’re still accepting. Asks hubby to go there A.S.A.P. Hopefully everything will be OK and now still waiting for hubby to call back. holding the “phew” until then.

*sigh*

Hello November…

it’s been very quite here – i’ve been spending too much time on FB. Just a quick update b4 i go to sleep.

if u’ve been following my blog for some time, u’d know that we used to have Cherry Moment and Ellone Moment. Now that those two young ladies are getting older, i guess it’s the little brother’s turn to have his own “moment”.

a few days ago, we went to GNC to get myself some PowerBars for my 10K run. The saleslady gave Xavier a balloon and trying to teach Xavier to be polite, i asked him to thank the saleslady…

Mommy : Xavier, say thank you…
Xavier : (turns to the saleslady and gave her his sweetest smile) F*CK YOU…
Mommy : !#$#&^#%*&^$@%^&$&$&$#!@!*&%&$@

I’m still feelin’ the rain fall
And bouncin’ off my skin
How long do I have to wait for
The sun to shine again?
Come on, paint me the rainbows
So I can follow it
I don’t know where it’ll take me
But I like wonderin’

Whoever you are
Where will you be
Are you the same old
Dreamer out there waiting only for me?
Waitin’ for love
Waitin’ for the same old
Dreamer on the other side
Hopin’ no matter how far I’ll find my way to you
Followin’ a rainbow

I’m gonna stop in the middle
Hang my feet off the edge
I got no reason to worry
I know I’ll find the end
That’s where you’ll be waitin’
I hope you don’t forget
That I won’t quit till I find you
No matter the risk

Whoever you are
Where will you be
Are you the same old
Dreamer out there waiting only for me
Waitin’ for love
Waitin’ for the same old
Dreamer on the other side hopin’ that
No matter how far I’ll find my way to you
Followin’ a rainbow

Stuck in my mind
I’m wastin’ time
Still on my own
I never thought that I would find my way
Into the light
Dreamin’ to find

Who ever you are
Where will you be?
Are you the same old
Dreamer on the other side waiting for me?
Waitin’ for love
Waitin’ for the same old
Dreamer on the other side hopin’ that
No matter how far I’ll find my way to you
Followin’ a rainbow

Ooohooohooohooooh yea yea yea…
I know we’re gonna find it
I know we’re gonna find it
I’m never gonna let you go
I know I’m gonna find you
I know I’m gonna find you
I wont let you go

Followin the rainbow
Followin the rainbow
Followin followin
Followin the rainbow
I’m followin a rainbow

Whoa whoa whoa…

Followin the rainbow
Followin the rainbow
Followin followin
