Day 17 : Your highs and lows of this past year.

So here I am again snailing towards my 17th day of the challenge. As how the title says, am gonna talk about how 2011 was. I did a post about 2011 a few days after the new year countdowns but I think I didn't put in enough stuffs in there hence here I am.

http://ty-my-thoughts.blogspot.com/2012/01/year-that-was.html

Above is the link for my overview of 2011. Basically 2011 was a year where I didn't really have much significant highs but I certainly had 1 significant low which I think I will never ever be able to overcome for the rest of my life regardless of whatever I was to do.

Before I go into details of that event, I shall talk a little about 1 of my mini achievement and how it fell short of being a proper 1.

So yea I bought that bike. My 1st ever bike and it was a 180cc scooter! But how it fell short of being a proper high?

Yep I had an accident. Why? I got no idea and I still don't know how I even crashed all I remember is me sliding on the road. I was lucky because my friend was behind me and she saved me. Since then bike key has been taken away from me. No more bikey. ='(

Now about the big low point that I was talking about earlier. I am the biggest fool of 2011 as I threw away the one person who really loved me for reasons that I still can't exactly comprehend. Ever since both of us have gone some distance with memories we would love to forget.

I've realized my mistake ever since and have been trying to make it up but I know that what I did has no retribution to it. Regardless of whatever that I was to do even to serve for the rest of my life would not be enough. Something I would certainly not forget for the rest of my life. The pain I caused has caused me more pain.

Words are never gonna be enough and I've run outa words to explain about the whole thing. However I have pledged myself to make things better though.

So yea part of my 2011 over here. You could also check below url for more details on my review of 2011.

I shall end this post. I wish I could say it but I rather not piss or upset you.

I shall be back with more updates. Sorry for such an emotional post. Till the next time, cheers people!

Underworld : The awakening.

Guess what? I dropped by to watch the Underworld last night! It was in 3D and was freaking awesome! Though the storyline is kinda crappy compared to the previous editions, yet this edition certainly didn't disappoint me in other aspects.

Below is the official trailer and followed by the plot.



Plot
"Kate Beckinsale, star of the first two films, returns in her lead role as the vampire warrioress Selene, who escapes imprisonment to find herself in a world where humans have discovered the existence of both Vampire and Lycan clans, and are conducting an all-out war to eradicate both immortal species.

Six months after the events of Underworld: Evolution, Selene (Kate Beckinsale) was captured by humans. Eventually both government officials and the public learn about the existence of the two immortal species of Vampires and Lycans (Werewolves). A crusade and all-out war has begun: study and eradicate.

After being imprisoned in cryogenic suspension for 12 years, Selene manages to escape the facility. During the same time, another suspect has also escaped the same facility that Selene was in. The suspect was Eve (India Eisley), a hybrid who is the key to ending the war.

So that's the main plot for the movie but be prepared for lots and lots of action as this is packed with it though Selene's role sticks mostly to her favorite hand guns. Would have loved to see her wielding those metal weapons though.

Watching this show on 3D was awesome since I watched the previous sequels on DVD. Well as we all know there is gonna be another edition to this the 5th Underworld and I am looking forward for it. Just before that I am biting my nails waiting for ......

So that's all for now. But just to let you guys know, I might have a slow month from now onwards but I will certainly be back after my birthday! Don't know when its my birthday? Do your research! =P

Day 16 : Your views on mainstream music.

Wow, this is a tough 1 to talk about. I am a music lover but I only listen to music that I find catchy. So basically I don't really support 1 particular band or artist but I support their work. I don't know if I am kinda contradicting myself. *poker face*

However, recently I am really attracted to some youtube talents who do covers of established singers. Though it isn't their own, I find that they produce much better versions compared to the artists themselves. No disrespect to them artists, but sometimes certain type of songs suites better with certain type of music.

For instance, recent hit by Katy Perry - The one that got away. The original version took away the feel of the song as it was too hyped up for quite an emotional song. Then I found 1 version by Boyce Avenue



And via their post, I found Tiffany Alvord & Chester See's cover of the same song and I thought to myself, "OMG! This version is way more complete than any that I ever came across."





This version really carries a lot of emotions in it. If you really understand the lyrics am pretty sure that this version would leave a mark within you. 


Anyways, coming back to the main topic, the music nowdays come in every styles. Some suitable and some aren't. While some you might be thinking " Why the f*** was this even made in the 1st place!" kinda stuff. But however, am sure there are people who enjoy them cause everybody have their own preferences.*wink*

While for me, I listen to any language song as long as it catches my attention. For instance, my phone has English, Korean, Japanese, Tamil, Chinese, Malay, and Spanish songs. So if you know nice songs do share with me! 

Am done with my day 16th post. Though am not quite sure if I even did hit the topic or not. LOL.


More updates coming your way guys!!

Day 14 : Your Earliest Memory

Okay, now I shall continue on with this 30 days challenge which I didn't even manage to go through even till the half way line. A lot of things happened so fast recently that I can't quite put them in words for you guys. I really wish I could cause I learned a lot of things in this packed couple of months.

Anyways, getting back to the topic. My earliest memories..... Hmmm.... This is really tough as my childhood memories are really jumbled up as I moved quite a lot here and there but don't quite know which comes first and so on.


However, 1 memory that would always be in my head is when I was about 4-5 years old or maybe even 3 plus I don't remember. Well I used to have this pedal car (remember it was a blue BMW) which I used to ride everyday from 5.00-6.30pm without fail. And I used to do all sorts of stun car driving that some people actually thought that I had some good driving skills since back then!

Though I don't quite remember what happened to it and until when I was riding it, I still remember the feel of driving it. I remember the pain I get from stepping on those metal pedals just for the sake of my own thrill of driving fast.

I remember it kinda looked like this picture above though it was blue and it was BMW! LOL. Other than this memory I remember I used to have a mini BMX bike too! That was when I was around 5-6 years old.

Another toy brings another memory. Used to cycle around as fast as I could go overtaking my sisters and cousins who used to play together. When they were not around I would cycle around my housing grounds as my house during those times were often corner lot houses hence we had quite some space. During those times I would practice those X-games styled moves some with precised success rate while some other not even close. 

But once I kinda tried to jump over a small drain in my house ground which normally I would have passed with my hands of the bar, I crashed straight into that drain while the bicycle handle just stabbed into my stomach and I hung there too scared to ask for help from my mom and also due to shock. After getting off the bike, parked it and sat in the house very quietly. 

My ever observant mom knew something was not up as I never come back in as early as 5.30pm when I just went out at 5pm to play. So she asked me and somehow found out that I was hurt. I will never forget the beating I got for being an idiot. :'(

Well I suppose this are a few memories I have of my younger days. I shall return with the 15th day post soon!!

A Year That Was

So 2011 has swiftly ended and 2012 is merely 2 days old. I suppose this is the best time to talk about what the previous year was about without effecting my this year. Countdown for 2012 wasn't much different from 2011 as I was single and I was home alone! Well am sure a lot of you guys out there might think I must be sad but it was a nice experience to be home.

Coming back to 2011, it certainly wasn't a year to brag about at all. But I would certainly say that 2011 was a year that I would certainly remember as a year to have taught me the most. Amazing year it was in terms of lessons and experiences that I got from 2011. 

I really can't cover everything with words but I will share as much as I could over here. I have always had a certain problem dealing with people. I normally get branded as "cocky", "idiot", "snob", and I don't know what else. I always complained that sometimes people misunderstand me due to communication break downs but then I realized that mostly I expected from people more than they were willing to show hence all the trouble.

Since I realized that, I've tried to just be myself and only myself by not expecting anything much from whoever I come across. Observing people and things has always been a habit to me so 2011 taught me just to be better at it. So if you met me and I am quiet then it obviously means I am observing so that I can adapt to you. I totally understand that everybody is different hence communication is also a little different so I rather adapt to people than expect people to adapt to me. 

Sometimes I talk a hell lot of things to new people but that's because I am trying to analyze what is their stuff. Well 1 person has to take up the effort, no? So why not it be me instead of waiting right? *wink*

Last year also marked a time when I lost 2 good friends in quick successions 1 after another. A nice couple they were and their departure was a huge shock for that it took me some time to get over it. They were a good example for me and meeting them had got me change a lot of perspective of life.

Betrayal, back-stabbed, robbed, and hurt were among those that really got me down but I think the worst that I felt was when I threw away love. Now I pay the price of being a fool but what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger. That is my tale, so I've grown from last year for sure. 

I know what I need to do and what I must further improve to live the life that I am hoping for. It's not wrong to hope for something because even our brains have a small column for hope hence it's just a natural human habit. Always look the brighter side I was told but I do know that we also have to acknowledge the dark side too in order to be prepared. 

I was never a fan of maths but I did okay in maths. Maths gave me a mindset that there is always a solution for a problem while my working experiences has taught me to also have options to choose. This is how I lead my life right now with added patience which I always lacked. I guess me being almost close to becoming 24 have finally grown up!

I know I keep saying this but doesn't seem like happening but I will try to catch up with more updates! Thank you for all the support that you guys have been giving. Happy new year people!!
