Just finished watching "Juui Dolittle". How can I not watch it when it has Oguri Shun, Inoue Mao AND Narimiya Hiroki? I totally forgot the former pair used to be Rui and Makino when watching though. Good acting :)

Wah, I had expected the show to be over-flowing with cuteness and educational messages, but it wasn't. It was pretty subtle, and yet I've lost track of how much I've cried watching the show. My favourite parts were the stray dog+rabbit story and the pigeon one. I like how they have a running storyline throughout that ends in the final episode, on top of introducing 2 animals per episode. It's amazing how the Japanese can make shows that are so heart-warming without being clichéd. Tottori-sensei appeared cold and aloof at the beginning, but as the show progressed he began to show his human side. The transformation was convincing, unlike those Taiwanese shows where the characters go from main villain to repent-and-turn-over-a-new-leaf. And of course, I love the soundtrack!
Makes me wanna own a dog. :P

Source Code

Went to watch "Source Code" with Tinghui today, after trying out the gowns for commencement in central forum. (Awaiting her pictures heee)

Colter Stevens: Lily awoke in an evening dress in an outbrook look. In her hand were 5 playing cards. At some point today, you're gonna hear about a failed terrorist attack on a commuter train near Chicago. You and I kept that bomb from going off. If you're reading this e-mail, then Source Code works even better than you and Dr. Rutledge imagined. You thought you were creating 8 minutes of a past event, but you're not. You've created a whole new world. Goodwin, if I'm right, somewhere at the Source Code facility, you have a Capt. Colter Stevens waiting to send on a mission. Promise me you'll help him. And when you do, do me a favor: tell him everything is gonna be okay.

this is not the end, this is just the beginning

Had my last paper (CM4241) yesterday. Which marks the end of my last semester in NUS. As always, there's no sense of joy. Just tiredness. And just glad that it's over.

It feels so unreal though, that I won't be returning to NUS after 3 months of nua-ing and a horrible round of CORS bidding. Right now it just feels like the usual May break.

I wish I can say I feel truly free now, but there's always a nagging worry about finding jobs at the back of my mind.

[Sidetrack a bit, sad to change my blogskin, but the misalignment of my sidebars made worse by my inability to understand html code is seriously getting on my nerves. Hence this new simplistic look.]

Time to catch up on Glee! :)

≪鬼迷心窍≫

詞:李宗盛 / 曲:李宗盛

曾經真的以為人生就這樣了 
平靜的心拒絕再有浪潮          

斬了千次的情絲卻斷不了      
百轉千折它將我圍繞

有人問我你究竟是那裡好 
這麼多年我還忘不了
春風再美也比不上你的笑 
沒見過你的人不會明瞭          

是鬼迷了心竅也好 
是前世的因緣也好
然而這一切已不再重要         
如果你能夠重回我懷抱

是命運的安排也好 
是你存心的捉弄也好
然而這一切已不再重要 
我願意隨你到天涯海角

雖然歲月總是匆匆地催人老 
雖然情愛總是讓人煩惱
雖然未來如何不能知道 
現在說再見會不會太早

As I age I find more and more flaws with myself.

The world is not perfect.
