Timetable.

Popularity is something everyone wants but something not everyone has.

Just finished reading this book, How To Be Cool, a NOVEL, not self-improvement book. It's by Johanna Edwards. Quite an interesting book, talking about views from plumper people, which is seldom seen by me. Easy to read and it grabs your attention. However, it is not one of those I'm-gonna-suck-you-into-me books, which is a bit of a pity.

Let's face it. No one wants to be a loser with no friends. You want proof? Those who wants to be a friendless loser please raise up your hands! See, no one, unless you raise your hand and look into the mirror or web cam, whatever.

Despite trying to be "cool" about not having as many friends like others, it is still hard. I'll still find myself checking my MSN window to see whether I have a new email from Facebook or Blogger. Or maybe even my mobile phone for new messages. Disappointment comes when there's totally nothing; it feels like no one cares or bothers about you.

Trust me, I know that feeling. Yup, I have friends, of course, but really close ones? A few. Hopefully they see me as one too. Think about it, most of the time everyone is actually alone. Alone alone. Something like everyone-is-around-me-but-I-still-feel-lonely alone.

Sometimes a single sentence or word may trigger a thought in your mind that maybe sounds like, Hey, am I an outcast or a left out? No worries, I tell myself often, that might not be true, although it seems true, sounds true or feels true.

It's tiring to think that every single moment. So let's take a step back from those nasty thoughts and look on the bright side, trust your friends. If you get hurt in the future, then they are the losers who judge people instead of accepting them for who they are.

Great! The picture for Yes Man! poster is up again! Hip hip, HOORAY!
I wanna watch 17 again! Zac Efron got the classic handsome look of men in the 60's or 70's or 80's? Either one! :)
Confessions of a Shopaholic is damn funny. Totally love the dancing part. :D

I read the book too, but I think both the movie and book has their own style. So please don't put them together and compare so much. :( Her baby is damn adorable. :DAnyone agrees that Amy Adams and Isla Fisher look alike?

Ah ha!

I admit, I should be studying for a test tomorrow and here I am, adding some interesting looking gadget to my little lonely blog. But I couldn't resist it! Doesn't it look cute! I love the world map.

Anyway, I sense an upcoming change, or probably it's my imagination or maybe doubt ;). It is quite obvious to everyone with eyes to see that changes are taking over slowly. All my friends have a personal little space in my heart. The size of it depends on how close we are, the closer, the bigger. As simple as that. While I do not like the idea of reducing the size of that particular little space, it is best that I let go before, as I said before, things become ugly. Forget it, friends like that will come and go no matter how unwilling we are.

On a lighter note, my friend has the novel 'The Devil Wears Prada'! Why am I happy? I do not need to go to the library to look for it again and borrow it for a limited amount of time. My fabulous friend will do me a favor by lending it to me, although she says that the movie is much better. ;)

I want to catch Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa in the cinemas before it is gone! It looks so amusing! That fabulous friend say I will absolutely love the movie!

Oh! Doubt is coming out next year, 29th January 2009 in Singapore. I know it is slow, but it is seriously much better than not coming to Singapore at all! Meryl Streep is in it! Love her! Amy Adams is in it too, and I think she is not bad! Love the colour of her eyes, something we Asians cannot have without the help of contact lenses! Oh well! Woo! Meryl Streep! :D:D

Enchanted Inc.

Another book down. This time its by Shanna Swendson and about magic. Imagine if magic really exists in the world. I bet I would be left out by the magical world then. I want to know more about magic, assuming it really exists.

Anyway, I was thinking, I realised every paragraph of my posts have no relevance to each other. It is really like random thoughts that is flowing through my small, empty brain. I can't seem to get stuck to one topic, unless I am in a bad mood. I like the idea of random typing of contents; I would not get marked down by my Scriptwriting teacher in school for it, and that makes me happier.

I am addicted to spending too much money ever since holidays, or maybe, term break, started for me. On the bright side, I am still in love with reading. Reading brings me to another world, to the world which the author wrote for readers like me. It is like watching movies, you are separated from the outside world. I love it everytime when I know I found an interesting book.

Okay, my thoughts got interrupted by a friend, not very glad by that interruption, but life goes on.

Books! I want to continue talking about books. Surprisingly, my English did not improve at all even though I read. But I think I would be able to survive with my standard of English. Everyone in my class seems to have a great command of the language, maybe it's just me. A happy note, I think I can understand what talents in movies are saying even without subtitles. Most of them, okay, some of them. I wonder if that counts as an improvement.

It is kind of late now. Looking forward to reading my next book, A Wedding to Die For. Sounds interesting, and if I'm not wrong, I'll be in for an adventure again! Not forgetting my gorgeous, lovely NDS lite when I'm bored. :D
