Let's Move Forward To 2014

I realized I haven't made any new year resolutions yet, so now I'm gonna write about it and hopefully I'll be able to stick to it and get it accomplished by the end of 2014.

In 2013, I've gained some, but I've lost some as well. I've lost some friends due to conflicts and such, but, no point bringing the hatred from last year, so why not let bygones be bygones and start anew?!

I didn't thought that I'll be blogging so consistently, updating this space of mine. So that's something that I really hope I will continue doing, updating my blog more frequently be it or without any invitation to events or reviews.

So without further ado, here are some of my new year resolutions for 2014. ^.^y

1: To get good grades. 
As much as I want to, I know I'm a lazy MOFO when it comes to school work. But if I have to, I will definitely work hard to achieve what I want. But most of the time, I'll just leave it to fate.

2: Travel more. 
I've always wanted and aim to travel at least once a year, be it to Malaysia or anywhere else, and guess what?!! I'll be going to Bangkok with le *cousins this coming April! A total of 13 of us are going, can you imagine?!!! Hahaha! I'm so looking forward to it!

3: More exposure. More opportunities
Who doesn't like to be recognize for their efforts put into something? As much as I want my blog to be known in the blogosphere, I will still do it in the ethical way, by working hard, and also leaving it to fate. Hahaha! If it's meant to be it's meant to be.

4: Spend more time with my family.
As I grew older, I realized I'm spending lesser time with my family, especially with my parents. It's kinda sad knowing that one day I will have to live my life without them. It's tough la. That's why one of my resolution is to spend more time with them, and hopefully we'll be able to travel overseas together, as a family. ♥

5: Lose Weight.
I know I know, this sounds almost impossible la, but I hope to lose some weight by the end of 2014, like not those super fit muscle gym kind but just nice enough to look good la. Hahaha! But.... we'll see! LOLOLOL!

6: Blog more often.
I know I'm already considered blogging VERY frequently already, but I hope to do it often like more consistently, maybe 2 - 3 post every week? Which makes 8 - 12 posts every month, and its 96 - 144 posts a year!! But sometimes due to school work and stuff, I may not blog so often la, like I say, let's just leave it to fate. Hahaha!

7: Lastly, be more optimistic and stop being so pessimistic.
I'm quite a emotional and sentimental kind of person. I can cry when I'm arguing with another person one hor!!! Hahahaha! And I take the words from people who are close to me very seriously, like the things they do or say can affect me one! So yea, this year I hope I can brush away those negativity easily, and live as though you only live once! #YOLO

SO YEAP! THAT'S MY NEW YEAR RESOLUTION! HOW ABOUT YOU?!!!
I really hope I could achieve at least half of it! Hahaha! Alright, that's all for this post, till then!

Hercules The Legend Begins

[8th January 2014]

Went for the movie premiere for Hercules The Legend Begins at Cineleisure. At first, I didn't know what to expect from the movie because, I've never really heard about it before.

So for those who have no idea what the movie is about? Lets just watch the trailer first shall we?



If you still have no idea what the movie is about after watching the movie, no worries, cuz I don't either! Hahahaha! KIDDDING!!!

So anyways, let me sum up for you. King Amphitryon had been a selfish ruler of his own throne/kingdom where one day, Queen Alcmene could not tolerate anymore and decided to put this to an end by succumbing to the lust of Zeus to bear a son, promised to overthrow the tyrannical rule of King Amphitryon in order to restore peace to a land in hardship.

Queen Alcmene had 2 sons, 1 is Hercules and the other is Iphicles. Both of them are in love with Princess Hebe, princess of Crete, but the princess was only in love with Hercules and no one else.

After knowing Hercules isn't his own son, Amphitryon then killed Alcmene and go all out to get Hercules killed.

Yeap! That's all I can say, you guys have to watch the movie to know the whole story! Hahaha! For me, the plot was alright I guess, to some, its quite bad. Some of the scenes are pretty computerized. IMO.

I would recommend you to watch it during weekdays instead of weekends though. Worth the $7 - $9 ticket price, but definitely not worth the $10 - $11 and above. Just my 2cents la! Hahah! If you guys are huge Greek Mythology kind of thing, then this movie would prolly be the one you would want to watch.

This is prolly gonna be one of those wordy with no photo kind of blog post. I was randomly bloghopping and I came upon Joey's (iisjong) blog, and I saw that she did posts like [2014 Diary], nope I'm not gonna be so hardworking like her, cuz I'll never be and never will. Hahahah! So I'm just gonna write down in this 1 post.

I was randomly thinking why did I even start blogging in the first place? Was it because of fame? Free stuff? or money? Actually, its all of it. I did thought of making money out of blogging which I already am, just not like thousands and such, just a few maybe to a hundred. But I'm definitely not looking at it as a full time job, just some additional moolarhs that I can get every month to spend on miscellaneous stuff.

Now back to what I was saying, why did I even start a blog? Well, I started this blog when I was 16/17 ish years old back in 2007/2008, where life was just simply going to school and have fun. No, I'm not saying that I don't work hard to get good grades, I do, but I just don't put in as much effort as compared to the rest of my classmates where they will just mug 24/7 during the exam period. For me, its just 95% play time and 5% studying, by studying I mean flipping through the textbooks and just reading it through. Hahaha!

I created a blog just so I can pen down my daily happenings, I still remember I would take pictures with my Sony K850i Cybershot phone EVERY SINGLE DAY without fail, and upload it via blogger and post it. But now, taking out my camera from my bag is already a burden. I wonder where do I get the motivation from back then. LOLOL!

As years have passed, I just didn't blog as much as I first started, and I just let it rot on the net. But I would still update it on and off. Now when I'm reading through my archives, I would cringe so badly because of the "TWIT" vocab I've used in the past, god knows why would I even type/write that way!!! Hahahaa!

Now here comes the present. I started updating this blog of mine regularly ever since I won 2nd in Cineleisure's Next Online Sensation Version 2.0 last year. Winning that title sort of helped me gain exposure one way or another. I've also made tons of new friends via blogging.

Then, when opportunities starts coming in, so is greed. People are beginning to take blogging as a platform to get freebies. I guess it's also part of Singaporeans nature, we love freebies, who doesn't?! But in my opinion, if you have what it takes and the opportunities comes knocking on your door, then grab it, if it doesn't, then wait for it. Why be desperate and go around asking for it?! It's not like you have no money to get the stuff you want! Even if you want it so badly, WORK FOR IT! Nothing in this world is free (well technically), cuz you need high traffic, good blog content to attract advertisers to your blog, right?!!!

But I mean, blogs are meant to be written as a form of a diary to begin with right?! For people to pen down their thoughts and daily rants. Some people just blog because they get to go for events, and food tastings etc, and their blogs are filled with events, food tastings, advertorials etc. They've already lost their own unique style of blogging already. (If you get what I mean)

I'm sure most of the blogs you visit nowadays are 3/4 filled with events/reviews kind of posts, and it gets abit sian at times. Unless I'm really interested in that person la, that is.

Now I feel better after ranting it here. Hahaha! Maybe I should do more of such wordy posts. LOLOLOL!!!

So to make this post less wordy, I shall *Piak* 2 photos here to make it more interesting! Hehhh!
