Blair (to Georgina): Don't think you can run me out of my own room with a half naked Dan Humpfrey.
Georgina: Fine, stay, you may learn something.

Blair: So apologize
Chuck: Uh that was it, but it comes with a bottle of champagne

Blair: (reads chucks hp message) Got word photo could go for 5500? how could you?

(So classic chuck Bass)

I just love chuck/blair scenes or scenes with blair in it hahahaha these two are so funny together! Just don't get on their bad side! I feel that episode has been the best episode so far, far overshadowing the first two episodes of this season, of course the season has just started! so yea. If it continues to be this good, i can't wait!

Today was my first time driving all alone and to KL some more!! from shah alam to KL is not a near distance, so it's something! Yea, was a little worried la, but i planned out my route edi, planned out what time is the best time and all that. So the drive was good, not many mean cars out there, Thank You God for protecting me through the whole journey. Now i have finally fulfilled my wish to drive alone to megamall! yosh! i feel more independant also la, cause when you're driving alone you have to decide for yourself when to turn in and all, yes victor was right, it is cool to be driving on your own too, but i don't think i'll do it too often yet la, i think my parents won't be too happy to be worrying all the time. Don't want them to worry too la.

So met up with aunty yee ling, miss ellen, jas, lynn, vic and esther, celebrated aunties b'day in chillis, wah super packed with people and we were stuffed with food, then ss go to the mooncake area and take pic and randomly talk and laugh in the middle of everything (people must have been looking at us) then finally we went home. It was a fun time, heard LOADS of lame jokes, goodness knows how people come up with SO many.

Silver IS shiny! i like shiny, ok, the nice kinda shiny not the i'm trying to hard to be shiny kinda shiny (don't worry if it doesn't make sense, it just doesn't....well it does make sense to me la haha). So anyway... today's CF was good, talked about the video sermon we watched last week which was about Passion. Louie Gigglio, go youtube and google him if you're free he's a cool preacher, real funny, easy to understand, relatable and so true!

He was talking about passion and how our passion can be used to serve God, but what made is so much relatable to what i'm going though now is that, ok this is what elisa said ok, she put it in a understandable way. Silver, when taken from the ground is black, and the refiner has to put it through a very very very hot furnace to refine it, and he puts it right in the middle of the furnace where it's the hottest. So he puts it in, takes it out, puts it in, takes it out, and finally when he thinks it's done, he scrapes off the black part and you get the most silvery silver ever. And to test wether the silver is pure, he does a test, if he can see his reflection in it, then it's pure. So in the same way we're the silver with the black stuff outside, the impurities, so God puts us through the fire (testing) and sometimes he puts us in for testing, then takes us out for some happy times, and repeats the process till, well we're pure, so seeing his reflection in the silver (us) means that we reflect God's character. yea so that's what we learnt today. Pretty awesome and a reminder for me, we know this things sometimes, but just forget, or are unaware of it. So yes , i HAVE A LOT of refining to do, hey i'm a work in progresss ok!

Other than that, today i had a 4 hour nap, something i haven't done for decades.

I have decided to try to write about something everyday, and i shall write about what happened today at college, the beggining of classes after raya holidays....

Woke up as usual, went to college about the usual time, but hey, hold and behold, the gate was not opened!! wow..so mdm shereen was like "is there college today?", elisa looked at me and i replied "well maybe they decided to extend the holiday?" she said in reply "i'll kill them for that". It would be one of my option answers too, after all, making me wake up SOOO early just to find out there is no college on that day is NOT funny at all. So after some time, one lecturer arrive, gate still locked, we got down and decided to wait outside. Elisa said "you won't get this at Taylors, or Help or Sunway, nope you'll only get this at MCKL", which is kinda true, other colleges aren't so school like as ours. Finally the guy came, unlocked the gate and let us 'eager' people in.

Went in and saw this ad to get an international student card, first 50 will get it free, to get it or not? it'll be fun to show to the cinema's and they think you're an international student, ah nvm. Fast fowards to 8 o'clock, i hung out with janice as usual, supposed to study but we ended up talking, i was lazy, so were the rest of the 3 people at the table. Then, it was Law, econs students late as usual, so the lecturer got really angry, wah that econs lecturer ah, should be more considerate sometimes. Business was ok, my article gave the blank response from everyone, haha, well now that i think about it, it wasn't really dat businesssy. And people commented on my shirt, it said "Hooray for sarcasm!", then after business, i went for the charity club meeting, all members consisted to 0907 batch, haha we're very united eh?

I then had 2 hours of break, and what did i do? ahhh tried to study la, forced myself actually. then went for lit class, nothing much, talked about poems....infact, that's what we did for the whole 1/2 hour. Then we went on to Himalayan balsam, so it was obvious that everyone had almost the same research, and i had to say "about", this is so law whey, one word can mean so much. yea so i said my research was about the same as everyone else, and that led me to admit that i had info on the flower itself, people started laughing for some reason, particularly somebody, but then miraculously, the lecturer said that it's good, and asked me to come out to present it, immediately everyone kept quite, especially that person. Ahhh well, i tried reading over that peom, anne stevenson is one complicated person. from a flower to a spider to dead animals and apparently the poem is about love?

Owh yeah, before lit, i looked into jas' maths class, the lecturer saw me and asked me who i wanted to see, so technically i did want to see jas, so i said her name la, and she called jas out. When jas asked if i randomly called her out, i said yes! and she was all nga nga and then i told her about the charity club to make it less random. Then her class ended. Yes, i know i'm random, but where else can you be random you know?

Just came back from tesco and you know what, i don't know if it's all kids, i hope and pray not, but situation one, these boys pushing a trolley and hit my mom, they just walked off talking to each other, not even a word of apology! situation 2, i was pushing the trolley and saw this mom and her kids coming my direction, so i thought, okla, let them go first, so i pushed back my trolley, and it seemed like i didn't push it far enough, the little girl just pushed my trolley away without saying excuse me and it looked like she thought she was the boss, i muttered "cute" to myself, as in define cute as big, fat and ugly. small kid ok! i was almost to the point of 'accidentally' meeting her at the back of tesco for a little 'chat', if you know what i mean. Seriously, and both situations were chinese!! what happened to the chinese values of respect?? what? it went down the drain with the economy? ishkababa la those kids. I should start a discipline facility, our motto? "kids are pests".

I actually wrote this review for my lecturer's blog, because well he invites people to write reviews and i thought "Okla". I also decided to not write using my edismine email account, instead i'm using the one i officially use for official business haha, doesn't make sense, nevermind. Okok, now for the review.

Movie Title
The Young Victoria
Year
2009
Genre
History, Drama, Romance

Story

Mostly about the early years of Queen Victoria of England, from childhood till she ascends the throne, the turbulence she faces as a ruler, her budding romance and ends with the birth of her first child. The audience will be able to see Victoria growing up as a young girl, secluded from the outside world and forced to carry out rules which are meant to control her. It then continues to the introduction of Victoria and Albert who will in future, be married (no it’s not a spoiler, it’s a historical fact). The criticism she gets as a new young ruler and the struggles she faces to rule the country and not be controlled by the many people who plan to use her as a tool for power.

Acting

Spectacular acting by Emily Blunt and Rupert Friend, Emily succeeds in portraying the young Victoria through the many stages of her life and she makes you just love her and cry when she cries. Rupert’s acting is so good that one would think that he really was the real Prince Albert in life. The rest of the cast’s acting is good too, but i guess a bit overshadowed by the main actress and actor.

Overall

I highly recommend this movie, for me personally it was a breath of fresh air especially on how movies these days portray romance, this movie the romance is sincere and true, definitely not based on lust like some movies. The historical information you get from this movie is quite accurate except for one part nearer to the end (but i can’t mention it as it would be a spoiler). There is some humour in the movie, but very british kind of humour, the movie isn’t draggy or boring at all and you have a good balance of seriousness for the historical aspect and the fun in the romance aspect. I was contented with how the movie end, it tied up all the knots and cleaned up nicely adding a smile to you face as a plus factor.

This movie is not available in Malaysia yet, i don’t think it will come out in local cinema’s unless after say, 3 years they may just decide to do so, as they did for many good movies. The fact that i managed to even stumble upon this movie is because i was visiting it’s homeland. So for those who are interested in historical drama romance, you’ll have to download this movie. Don’t know how guys will react to this movie though after all it is history and simple romance in one movie.

Rating:9/10

For those who read my blog often you would know that i'm lazy to post up pics (just ask lynn about that! she still hasn't received her pics!) so for pics, google it la haha

Happy Birthday Audrey! i know this is kinda lame, i feel lame while watching myself be lame. Hope you like it though, hehe.
