2011 IN REVIEW

i. am. so. outdated.
This is my 2011 year-end reflective update and it's already the 7th day of 2012.
Nvm. Lucky number. I embrace.

i have alot to say but no inspirational means to convey them in a manner that doesn't sound like some emo year-end rant. But i have been putting this off for so long la. Better just get it out of my system.

Firstly, i must say... 2011 treated me quite humanely.

Secondly, i love ice cream.

OK now that i've got that out of my system, let me run through the highlights of my year..

- i visited Bangkok and had a taste of Chatuchak. Literally. Ate so much.

- i left my Art Director position at 8TV to merealisasikan a very scary fantasy of mine (with the accompaniment of a close friend)

- Splurged on Singapore trips for the enriching experience of Lion King: The Musical. as well as the recent Wicked: The Musical.

- Went on our 1st ever frenfren group trip thing to Lang Tengah. (weird cuz we've known each other for so long but NEVER managed to go on a holiday before)

- Purchased my 1st ever DSLR camera. and proceeded to experiment.

- Purchased my 1st ever Smart Phone. and proceeded to discover Twitter.

- u know wat. 2011 will be the year that i became heavily "involved" in Twitter. No thanks to the funness of social media and my shyness for a real social life.

- oh. and i had my 1st ever major Surgery in my life. (sorta. or maybe i mean major COSTING surgery)

May 2012 bring forth more mutations of positive outcome!

i leave u with Kickatomic's 1st ever syok-sendiri maximus video

(pls share around if u like hokay?)

ACADEMY AWARDS WATCH

Step aside Bieber, a new fever is in town.

The Oscars are currently inching closer and closer till you can almost smell Colin Firth winning Best Actor and Natalie Portman snagging Best Actress and Social Network grabbing Best Picture.

Been trying hard on watchin' em nominees before the show on the 27th (familiar date for a celebration, no? ;) ) so i can gloat and cheer and pull hair with all ye geeky hardcorers during the ceremony.

Black Swan was last night.

Made the girls squirm during the scenes when she started going cuckoo. (pun not intended)

Natalie Portman is so bloody skinny here.
Plays out to the character very well.

Watched The King's Speech 2 weeks ago. During CNY.

Yeah everyone was blasting their festivelybloodred dongdongchiang programs and there i was busy watching period movie drama about a stuttering anger-filled leader.

Rebel yo.

Colin Firth is amazing in this movie.

Next up:

The Kids are Alright.

127 Hours.

The Fighter.

Anyone got?

Social Network / Toy Story 3 / Inception was fortunately last year when they were on the big screen.

Am also trying to catch all the Best Animated Short Film Nominees

Already saw The Gruffalo which was damn cute and awesomely animated.

the textures and lightings were eyegasmic to behold.

Day & Night during Toy Story 3. Very refreshing way of execution.

had the opportunity to ask them about the process of making it sometime ago at the Pixar Toy Story3 Lecture Series last year.

Anyone got the rest?

BEST ANIMATED SHORT FILM

•Day & Night

•The Gruffalo
•Let's Pollute
•The Lost Thing
•Madagascar, A Journey Diary

(i cut and paste from Nicholas' blog. hehe. xiexie nicho!)

Oh and btw. Oscar day (US time) also marks the day i was bestowed life onto this earth. so whip out all ye belated xmas presents / belated CNY angpows / belated valentinesday gifts / festive charity cheques and direct them to yours truly cuz u just love me too much to not do this.

Much much much appreciated!

FART CHOY, FART CHOY, FART FART CHOY!
