The Day Of My Last Weekend Duty (EVER)

We have finally arrived near the end of my service for the nation. YES.
And today's my last weekend duty! (Actually, more like today and tomorrow la but whattheheck) So anyway, I just made an interesting discovery last night. We have our very own Gossip Girl ripoff in sunny Singapore!

Known only as Kaypoh Girl, this new young thing (or things, as many have speculated that more than one person runs this delightful, juicy little webbie, and I suspect that it's not even written by a girl/girls) is only about a month old. Go check it out if you're really bored. For the real deal, remember that a new episode of Gossip Girl airs every Monday, 8/7c on the CW (which is available for viewing off surfthechannel.com soon after heh heh).

To the producers of Gossip Girl (if you happen to chance upon this blog): For the love of God, please do something about Vanessa's hair. Crimping is for the 80s and little children's sleepovers, not, I repeat, not for your grown-up token Hispanic girl on the show. And please please please get new clothes for Chuck. Or burn his wardrobe so he'll need new clothes. Cos orange, purple, (and most recently) green suits are not made for human eyes. He's not a Teletubby.

Anyhoos, I've got a long boring day ahead. Thank God there's Candice Bushnell, Natsuo Kirino and Sylvia Plath to keep me company. To the rest of y'all who are enjoying your freedom during the weekends, have fun! I'll be joining you guys before you know it. ;)

The Day I Talk About "Eagle Eye"

How long has it been since I last went for a movie with my Indonesian cousins (no Andrew, you don't count; you're a once-removed cousin :P)? Hmmm, since never. So anyway, we went out together today for a movie since it was the Hari Raya holidays and I had no plans for the day.

Movie Review: Eagle Eye



Once again, Shia LaBeouf is the leading man of an action film produced by Stephen Spielberg. With Constantine (well he was Keanu's sidekick, so I guess it counts), Transformers, Disturbia and Indiana Jones under his belt, one would think that he'd be consumed by the genre already. However, he manages to provide a very solid performance as a government fugitive on the run due to the manipulation of a sentient, government-created computer security system that went rogue. With him is Michelle Monaghan (from this year's romantic comedy Made of Honor), who provides the movie with a maternal touch without being overly whine-y and stiff. However, the show's true scene stealer has to be Rosario Dawson , who portrays a special agent for the US Air Force. Her delivery has never been so good since Clerks II (IMO her parts in Death Proof and Sin City didn't do her acting chops justice).

Without giving too much away, the movie is somewhat similar to the premise of the Terminator series (Terminator, T2, T3, The Sarah Connor Chronicles), sans robots from the future but plus manipulation of humans by a computer system. It's relatively well-paced and gives a very real "what if?" feel by providing the audience with a scenario where technology become too smart for its own good.

To end off, I'd like to wish everyone a very Happy Childrens' Day (no matter how old you are, cos everybody has a kid within)! And Selamat Hari Raya Adilfitri to all my Muslim friends!

PS: And to you Emmanuel, HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY! It really was nice meeting you this morning for brunch. :)

Till next time, xoxo.
