Review: Ninja Assassin

During all the hype for Twilight's Saga - New Moon, I was quiet skeptical about my movie date with suami during the recent long weekend due to Hari Raya Qurban. But there we were, in front of the ticket counter, and saw that there is still a glimmer of hope..Ninja Assassin..Mind you, both suami and I are not whatchamacallit..Twi-hard fans. Although we think that New Moon might have more objective or a storyline for a movie as compared to the first part of the saga, we didn't feel very vampy or wolfie (cue She-Wolf by Shakira.ugh!can't stand that song either!!).

When they were promoting Ninja Assassin, I heard on Red.fm (Terry kot..) saying that it would be the perfect date movie...HE WAS RIGHT!!!!! It had elements in the movie that would make the boys AND girls fantasize about it..(although the fantasy would prolly have different directions..:P) The choreography was EXCELLENT (maybe a little bit like how Rain's music video would look like..) the effect was not bad if you're into all those comic book effects..and the storyline was smooth. But MOST OF ALL...this was one 'Rain' that you don't want to stop..heheh..*drooooolllllllllllll*

Get what I mean?????hahahahah! Don't worry..I have suami's consent to LITERALLY drool over Rain...hehehehehehhehe!

I don't think I could be much of help in telling you how the movie went since I'm still not over drooling over Rain. But safe to say..the movie will leave you feeling that you WANT to be a Ninja.....This movie gets my 4stars (5 would be too much) and Rain is not bad for an actor. Maybe the character suits him. Plus I think Sung-Kang (Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift) made an appearance in the beginning of the movie..I used to have the hots for him during Tokyo Drift..but so sorry to say..Rain made him look like a sissy...Well Sung Kang dear..it was good while it lasted...:P

*My dearest unborn child...if you are a boy..you can look like Rain...ayah says OK!:P*

How Do I? I Don't....

How do I,
Get through one night without you?
If I had to live without you,
What kind of life would that be?
Oh, I...
I need you in my arms, need you to hold,
You're my world, my heart, my soul,
If you ever leave,
Baby you would take away everything good in my life,
And tell me now
How do I live without you?
I want to know,
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive?
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
Without you,
There'd be no sun in my sky,
There would be no love in my life,
There'd be no world left for me.
And I,
Baby I don't know what I would do,
I'd be lost if I lost you,
If you ever leave,
Baby you would take away everything real in my life,
And tell me now,
How do I live without you?
I want to know,
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive?
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
Please tell me baby,
How do I go on?
If you ever leave,
Baby you would take away everything,
I need you with me,
Baby don't you know that you're everything,
Good in my life?
And tell me now,
How do I live without you,
I want to know,
How do I breathe without you?
If you ever go,
How do I ever, ever survive?
How do I, how do I, oh how do I live?
How do I live without you?
How do I live without you baby?

I've been thinking about my late son a lot these past few days. Missing him more than I'd normally let myself..I don't let myself think how much he'd grown by now if he was still alive. I would just be torturing myself more. But I have friends with sons who was born about the same time Arwah was born. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy following their progress and proud of my friends who are now mothers. But I am only human and sometimes that 'If only' thought would somehow manage to get through...

I am thankful for suami.for always being so strong and supportive..I am thankful for my family, my mom especially who understands or at least tries to understand what I'm going through..I am thankful for the child that I am bearing in me now..

But I am still scared..skeptical...paranoid..whatever you want to put it. I don't think I'd be strong enough to go through anything like this anymore..

I've always been kinda optimistic about life. It hasn't been easy for me, even since I was a child. But I have ALWAYS chose to be happy. It's really hard this time..harder than anything I have ever had to do. Hard to put up a happy face..but I'm doing my best.

I think I'm feeling extra sad because I will be going to visit Arwah's grave for the first time tomorrow. I don't know how I will react..I don't even know what to do when I do get there.

Well, guess I will find out tomorrow..

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha to all my muslim friends...

2 Years and Going Strong..

Happy 2nd Anniversary sayang..

It's been a trying journey for both of us but alhamdulillah it has made us closer and loving each other more and more each day..

Can't imagine my life without you.

I loved you then,

I love you now

and I will love you for the rest of my life.

You will always be my best friend, my lover and my husband..

Review: The Time Traveler's Wife and 2012

The 2 latest movies that I've had a chance to go watch. Honestly speaking, I enjoyed The Time Traveler's Wife more than 2012. But since I watched both, so here's my 2 cents worth for both movies..

So I'll start with The Time Traveler's Wife first. Sorry for the late review coz I think this movie might not be showing in the cinema's anymore. But although movies that are based on books are never done justice on the movie screens, but I guess they did their best for this. Well..it not only made me cry, but suami and another guy friend cried too (although they both tried to cover up by starting to throw pop corns at each other during the movie just to make sure that the other is more macho..) hehe! In a way, this movie can be categorized as one of the most ultimate love stories ever. The book is better..but the movie is worth it too. It makes you laugh, it makes you cry and it's leaves a heart warming feeling afterwards..A highly recommended movie is you're having a date night with your partner, just cuddling up on the sofa while you're taken through the journey of what you call 'true love' in a movie...

So we've seen many versions of end of days or armageddon or apocalypse..whatever they call it. But I must say, although this movie managed to make me feel scared about the end of the world as we know it, it did not really succeed in making me feel the emotion of losing your loved ones like Armageddon did. I did feel kinda annoyed with John Cusack's character and the guy who played as the President of USA's advisor. Both should get AT LEAST a punch in the face! Their characters were annoying especially that Anhouser character..Although this movie doesn't get my 5stars for it..the CG was amazing and as far as logical explanation goes, this movie is alright. Just because it doesn't leave my tearducts to overflow, doesn't mean it's bad. Just don't think alll the hype about it is necessary..Plus, why do they only seem to emphasize on Buddhism when it was other religions that predicted 2012? But you gotta love Adam Lambert's single for this movie 'Time for Miracles'. Was not much of his fan during American Idol, but I LOVE his new single...

*I hope I can still make it for MJ's This Is It at the movies...*

Dah habis. Aku dah combine due2 jadi satu ok. Aku tag Ida, Elsa, Zurina, Sophie, Hazim dan Darkk. Jika Peah belum kene tag, maka dia pun aku tag.

Sangat Betul!

Aku kopipes quote ni dari Darkk yang juga telah kopipes dari org lain yang aku tak kenal. Aku nak share ngan korang sebab aku rasa quote ni SANGAT la betul...

Orang yang berfikiran besar, akan bercakap tentang ilmu.
Orang yang berfikiran sederhana, akan bercakap tentang peristiwa.
Orang yang berfikiran rendah, akan bercakap tentang orang lain.
Orang yang berfikiran cetek, akan bercakap tentang diri sendiri…

Suami cakap ada versi english..tapi aku tak jumpe. Takpela..kita share je yang ni..maka renung-renungkan la ye kawan-kawan...

Ah..UPDATE! Thanks to Sapik..I've found the original quote..

Great minds talk about ideas,
average minds discuss events,
weak minds talk about other people
-Elanor Roosevelt

*Jadi aku ni besar ke, sederhana ke, rendah atau cetek??? Sila jangan jawab soklan aku ni...:P*

SURPRISE!

hahah!seperti yang dijangkakan..yang kene surprise adalah suami. but I still have to give him credit for trying.

according to suami, we were SUPPOSED to go to krabi over the weekend. but somehow, his booking got mixed up and everything was cancelled. I don't bother to interrogate further. I was secretly glad that we didn't go. with my current condition and weird food demands..it would probably be a problem if we were to go somewhere foreign. I admit now that I am not a good travel partner..I am very homely now. but..we still had the whole weekend to ourselves..at least I wanted it to be that way..:P

suami did want to go and hang out with his friends etc etc..but I said, "since this weekend was SUPPOSED to be our weekend getaway, you CANNOT go hang out with your friends." mind you, I'm not always like this. under normal circumstances, suami usually can go and hang out with his friends whenever he wants to. but this weekend was different. but i didn't confine suami to the house or shoo-ed away friends who came over and what not. we still met up with k.lin, abg. lan, adi, chip and tariq (and jai, huda and sapik briefly). but essentially, i had suami all to myself through the weekend.

but the person who actually GOT the surprise was actually suami. I bought him a guitar as our anniversary gift (yes anies...guitar yang kau mahu itu kot..hehehe). it was actually an impromptu gesture. we were at midvalley and i wanted to eat my forever favorite portuguese grilled fish at Oasis and we walked by Rhapsody. i dragged suami into the shop and told him to choose a guitar. he thought i was joking..i even did the "Offer going once..going twice.." by the time i said going twice he quickly said "NAK!" :)

it bought a HUGE grin on suami's face...

Guitar Price: biarlah rahsia
Expression on suami's face: PRICELESS

then we spent the weekend furniture hunting - with baby on the way and all..and yup. we did find some cool bargains..a sofa bed for only RM399 and a big shoe cupboard for RM350 (i say big coz it's still not enough for my shoes!!damn!) so poor tariq was conned into helping us move the 'bed' which was our sofa bed into the baby's room to make way for our new sofa bed.(will update with pix later ok..) and as a reward for tariq, he was the first to sleep on the sofa bed...good review by tariq..hehehe!

then suami spent the rest of the night cleaning up the house while i snoozed..aaahhh..the kind of surprise ANY wife would love to get..:) and he did a good job too! thank you sayang! hehehe!

and yesterday was spent just the two of us...hape lagi..TIDO!!!hahahah!and both dreading work on monday.

I had a good weekend with suami..surprise or not. it's always nice spending time with him. only thing i need him to improve is lesser time on the handphone! psp is already within control....how do i eliminate if not reduce his phone time...?

*i know many of you out there can't live without your phones..but i can..it's serenity i tell you!*
