Joe Hisaishi Concert

800 people choir singing to "天空之城" or "Laputa" theme song. Seen here in Joe Hisaishi's (Composer of the music to most of Studio Ghibli's works) concert.



AMAZING!!! Almost teared watching this, so grand and touching! Joe Hisaishi is a genius!

看到旧时候的我们，莫名的伤心。。。

还好，平日的我已不再那么伤感了，看来我已习惯寂寞了。

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

The 6th movie Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince didn't fail like the previous movie, Order of the Phoenix (which was really a messy one), infact it is the best Harry Potter film yet! I heard a lot of people saying that movie 6 is boring, I have two guesses, 1, either they didn't read the books and all the wanted to see an action packed movie or 2, they expect every little gritty details to be included in the film.

Book 6 is one of my favourite books in the series, not because its filled with action but its very tasteful story telling leaving you with a lot of question marks that will be revealed in Book 7. And I think the movie did actually successfully captured the main plots of the book and actually TOOK TIME to tell the story, the slow story telling was long gone after the Chamber of Secrets movie. The film was filmed tastefully with the superb CGI, I like the tone set here in movie 6, long gone were the days that Hogwarts has this warm glow filled with magic, this time, Hogwarts is filled with this gloomy atmosphere that tells that doom is coming (Doom did came at the end of the movie, won't be a spoiler in case you haven't read the books or watched the movie). The characters have more soul in this film, (e.g. Hermione, Snape, Dumbledore and Draco Malfoy's emotional turmoil). All these made the film to be the most matured one out of all the movies. Credits must be given to director David Yates that he did not spoil the story like the one he previously did, but made it into one the best Harry Potter film yet.

So if you are just only following the movies and not the books and expect the "WOW" factor from all the actions, that forget it, don't watch (I mean, Harry Potter's phenomenon was always because of its story, not its actions, there are so many fantasy gig out there nowadays, go on and watch those if you like action packed movies), go read the books if you must, I bet you will be hooked. But do come back when movie 7, part 1 and 2 is out, because action is guarrantined as it is the final showdown of the world of good and evil. Anyway, I might watch movie 6 again in the cinemas, who knows?

Anyway 溏心风暴 airing in Channel U soon! One of my favourite TVB classics. Haha...

Movie rating: 4/5

Last year was terrible for me, but I still don't feel this bad as now. Maybe physical illness will never be as bad as emotional turmoil. My heart has switched to an ultimate sian mode at this point of time. I can only say army has made me mature a lot and in a very short time, I still remember February this year, I am still having some childish mentality when events after events has woke me up violently, maybe it is God's way of preparing me for the age 21, an age when someone is deemed to be mature. But it seems all these problems, human relationships, uncertainty in life, problems after problems in my circle of life has made me into an angry person. I start to hate seeing things going in the wrong way. I am never going to go back to that childish and always happy "Jie Ge Ge", (Now I realise what a disgusting nickname it is, by the way) or whatsoever anymore. I feel numbness in my heart and it has been there for few months. I just cannot be happy.

Anyway, quarrantine is over, I was like a jail bird for the past 9 days. And we have shitty schedule coming up because of H1N1. And people please, if you come back from affected countries, please zi dong yi dian, go quarrantine yourself at home for 7 days, PLEASE! Its not a joke or something that you can throw away from your brain! Innocent people like us is also affected, so have some social responsibility, PLEASE!

Oh, and on a lighter mode, this is the movie I have been anticipating since 2 years ago.



HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE!!! *CHEERS*

Out on July 16, but I can only watch after 28. Haiz... Qi dai qi dai!!!

You are so fickled with the word "sincerity", you have long lost my trust, so you should be the last one to even comment on anything so please shut up...

很多人说，当兵会改变一个人，对，说得没错，至少它让我挥别了童真与懵懂，也让我看清原来人与人之间的关系是这么脆弱的。我悄悄的隐退（这不是刻意的），竟没人发现，也没有人在意，证明我在那我曾天真以为是天堂的大家庭里面所建立大部分的那些友情是扎不实的根，甚至只是一些吃喝玩乐的朋友。当我需要安慰的时候，伸出双手竟摸不着任何东西，很想大声呐喊，让人注意到我其实还存在，但又何必呢，大家把你忘了就是忘了，当我出现时才说声Hi, 太假了吧，让我难过的是，我在那大家庭里呆了那么久，现在才来觉醒，发现原来在那里想找个比较了解你的人几乎没一个，一切都流于表面，好假，假到痹。大家可以说我怎么不反省，我就是看不到我那里做错了，我做人和交朋友都讲真心，甚至有时还觉得被 take for granted, 但我得不到一样的回应，我心中有很多愤怒和失望，要我怎样参加接下来的“复兴”活动，我也不怕得罪谁了，反正我不会像以前那样投入，应该伤不了我多少吧。我一定要说出来，不让会憋死的。

最近还看到让我觉得恶心的事，这位朋友，你如果不想帮人就干脆说不想帮，没人勉强你，但你何必要假惺惺的答应了在找个烂借口临时退出，如果你觉得你没错的话，那你的 priority 观念一定出了很大的问题，这就是你表现对弟兄姐妹的爱吗？有得玩就预你一份，不然需要付出的最好别找你。你的行为，你以为没有影响力吗？至少你已让我对这大家庭的失望加多了一层。

我说这些不为了什么，我是挣扎了很久才决定写了这篇文章，我不是想挽救任何事才写的，毕竟大家已回不去当初的感觉。

当然，这段时间让我了解一些存在边缘人的感受，我看到一些真心之人，但我需要时间疗伤，希望你们了解。

愁人节 - 谢谢 谢安琪 唱出我的心声。。。

手脚冰冷的筋竭衰老的晚间借宿于街角的对佳节有否兴趣
失去依靠的早晚空肚的猛火里丢失所有的谁又来问暖一句
大节日里愿望有伴侣但在你身边是谁独个面对疾病与药水浑沌里烟花迷醉

街里爱人一对对互送鲜花千杯不醉你的噩运继续追无人扶持行前行后也失据呆呆张开一张嘴无缘故会渗眼泪 hey 对你哪有节日会记叙别活在梦幻里

需要温暖的苦恼生计的与遭到威逼欺压的有些会引起兴趣
失去工作的不再坚壮的与一众朝不保晚的期望谁问津一句
在节日里但愿有伴侣现实你身边是谁越去面对越是往下推独自对天闹情绪

街里爱人一对对互送鲜花千杯不醉你的噩运继续追无人扶持行前行后也失据呆呆张开一张嘴无缘故会渗眼泪 hey 世界哪有节日可嘉许消灾解困万岁

普世欢醉燃狂热情绪尽力购物寻趣你却没有睡进驻垃圾场里吃过夜的饼干碎 wow
佳节众人一对对互送鲜花心意祝福句你总只靠两条腿到处去看哪里有个家归去呆呆张开一张嘴无缘故也会恐惧 hey 盼会有个节日可嘉许纾灾解困万岁

衣着矜贵的温暖饱满的与身处福中不觉的这天你有否兴趣听他诉苦几句
