Salt Review

At first, i felt like this movie will flop thanks to lousy trailers..in the end i gave it a shot and didn't expect to come out from cinema satisfied, but i did..it's not movie of the year contender, but it's a damn good thriller ride..

Last Train To Serdang

Today 29 of July 2010, i had an interview appointment today at Serdang..10.30..and i was late..

Going There-Part 1
I woke up about around 8, took my bath and left my place and everything from here on everything seems a bit different from all the days that i've been through for my interview..Normally it will be a RapidKL bus, LRT train and bla bla bla..Somehow today the bus that came is a different type, it's the where it has double jointed seat aligned to the back of the bus instead of those typical one where the front part of the bus is facing at the windows..the left side seat will be facing the right side window of the bus and vice versa, what i mean..

Plus, after my earset broke down, out of all the interview i went for, it decided to die right here right now..coward. I can't believe i had to see through bus and train without music to my ear, i hate that..Anyway, after the road that went straight to KL sentral was suffering from traffic jam, also another new experience from all the interview I've been to..seem pretty weird..

Finally reached KL sentral, took the KTM train by myself first time, missed an slighty earlier train, so have to wait for about half an hour for it to return, for the first time i was late for an interview..The train freaking finally arrived, and for God's sake it move so slow..but thankfully the train wasn't hot..

Reached There-Part 2
Finally reached there, i went straight to the place, thank God it's a short distance from the train station so i don't have to walk that far..I enter the company, it's a pretty small company on the second floor, interviewed by the art director..Apparently he can't speak English..err..after i present my work to him, he asked me a weird question, he says " if i can choose to be an animal, which animal would I be?"..I was lost and confused for i did not prepared for question like this, so i just say " snake" since i'm born in the year of the snake..

After much talk and all, he say the sweetest thing to me that i have been waiting to hear for a long time, he said " You're hired" and i was dancing around in a land full of blossomed flower and shining rainbow over my head..Finally i have found a job..hooray to me..Without much hesitation i took the offer, because i've waited for so long and though the boss can't speak a single word of english, he was nice and the place is as well..so..why not right..

Coming Home-Part 3
After much dancing and chanting in a forest, i went home using the train again and i did something silly subconsciously, i did not realize that there are such things where a part of the train is only for women to enter, and i enter blindly..it was my first time after all.

I was surrounded by millions and millions of women and i find it rather weird..but i did not wasted this opportunity to enjoy life as God has planned for me, i was surrounded by women for crying out loud..not just any women, bunch of hot women in their 20's, not just any hot women in their 20's but hot women with mini shorts and sexy top..i thought i died and went to heaven..The one that was in front of me was sexy..eye candy..

Anway, that's pretty much it, i just want to thank God for finally landing me a job..Praise the lord.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice Review

Decent Disney teen flick, predictable stroyline..but thankfully nice cool special effect.

Good Things Will Come..

I have to be honest..i'm not a very patience guy, the word 'patience' does not run in my blood, i tend to lose my temper if time were to test me on waiting, i will freaking lose it..I'm insane..

I'm really insane if one were to try it on me, i remember i should to snap on my friend one time when i waited for about half an hour or one hour plus just for his arrival, when he arrived already, i snap..i totally lost it..Though i admit i was wrong to snap like that, it's not civilize at all..

Anyway, the reason for this post is actually about my job interview, if y'all have been keeping up with my unimportant life, i have graduated and currently now in job hunting mode..and despite all, i don't have much luck in it..

And i felt depressed after that, i was like wondering if it me with no skill or that i have don't have any luck at all or both..i was worried that i might never be able to find a job, though it sounds exaggerating, but that's how worried freshmen sounds like..

I find it difficult since most company would rather hired someone with some working experience, but i have none..i mean in term of working permanently..I'm fresh graduate, i have no working experience relating to the working field..so a bit of a disadvantage for me..which makes me worry more..

But then i stumble upon this phrase "Good things will come for those who wait" and sudden;y it just give me this urge of hope..and i do hope the saying is true..because at this point i need lots of hope, faith and luck..

Absence Feelin'

I realize that ever since 3 years ago when i first came to Subang Jaya to pursued a Diploma in Creative Multimedia, ever since that first step i stood on Subang's dirt..i have been missing out in a lot of quality time with my parents..

As much as it sounds like it's a process of growing up and moving into adulthood, i hate it..Though i've never really say it out till now, i've always shown the expression of it..at least i know i have..It's the feeling of missing out in the picture frame, like suddenly it just feels like you were never there in the first place, unknown existence all of a sudden..

The longer i linger in Subang, the more i'm missing out on..not to mention, the farther time goes on, the more i realized i can never have anymore family time with my parents, because by then, i'll be working already..

I've never been the type of guy that likes to move away too far from his house, i always likes to glue to my mum, i've always like to know that if i need any transport i can rely on dad and now..I'm moving away from all these, not to say that i can't be independent but just the feeling of not being able to talk or see your parents most of the time is kinda hard for me, this is why i get home sick easily..

Sigh, there's nothing i can do but to realize the fact that time is showing me sign that communicating through cellphone or email is the only way now..i don't want it that way..

Ong Bak 3 Review

If you are expecting the same intense raw hardcore brutal combat scene from the first 2 Ong Bak, i suggest you shoot yourself in the head first before purchasing the ticket, it's that bad..

Ideal Partner?

I read a book just a few moment ago, something about picturing your ideal partner..it say that in order to find a love partner, one must first picture what that love partner might be like..But i think..in some lazy way of talking, it meant..pick your choice so that it'll save cupid lots of time thinking of a person for you..

So i think it's kinda like saying give the cupid some pointers so that it'll be easier for him to find that someone for you, so i thought i'll give it a shot..Here's goes..

Nicholas ideal partner wishlist [ Santa, are you listening?]:

5.Kind and loving[Seriously who doesn't want this?]
4.Knows how to cook[I can really eat, i would love to find someone who can really cook]
3.Great personality[Again, who doesn't want this?]
2.Funny[It's nice for someone to make me laugh for a change]
1.Love me for what and who i am[Essential]

Notice how appearance is not part of my list, well beauty is secondary, what's more important is inside..

Strugglin'

I am..like all the other struggling fresh graduate out there..struggling to find a decent job..I am..unfortunately..have no such luck in my job hunting mission..

I had a lot of call from different companies for interview, most of the working environment are nice, some are not quite my taste. Anyway, let me break it down for you the companies that i had went..

AD Target Sdn Bhd
Went there a day before the interview, saw the place..not a good first impression, didn't went for the interview after that..
Percentage of getting the job:0/10

Verve Printing Sdn Bhd
Went that, small palce..in fact tiny little room should i say, very small little working place..they test me by asking me to do certain advertisement in a short amount of time and i panic..suddenly i just seem to forget everything I've learned..dumbass..
Percentage of getting the job:5/10

K2 Marketing Sdn Bhd
Went that, nice place and the lady who interviewed me was super friendly..rare..I had nothing to show since i just found out that they do graphic on T shirt but interview went alright i guess..
Percentage of getting the job:5/10

Adberry Snd Bhd
This is probably the longest interview among all, it was like about an hour long..The guy who interviewed me was a friend of my lecturer..surprised..Anyhow, the place and the people are nice, might take this one if they want to take me..
Percentage of getting the job:7/10

Trimore Trading Sdn Bhd
Shortest interview ever..2 minute long, i had only a few shoe design to show them since i had did any shoe design before, so i went and did some for them and all i get was..oh oh oh..oh oh..oh oh oh..Strongest feeling in my heart saying that i will never get it judging from the interview, in fact i don't want to take it too if i get to..
Percentage of getting the job:1/10

World Of Feng Shui Sdn Bhd
Again, a nice place but eventhough i felt like the interview went alright, i hardly doubt i'll get it since they say in order to work, i must be familiar with InDesign..i never learned InDesign..
Percentage of getting the job:3/10

Mindbender Sdn Bhd
First off, i just wanna say that i don't remember sending my resume to this place at all, anyway, i could go there due to no transport..so it was a missed opportunity..
Percentage of getting the job:0/10

So you see..no luck..

Inception Review

This is the best movie of 2010, truly incredible masterpiece achievement..I was blown away by it..

Random 13

Today me and my friends went to some mamak place for dinner, and usually places like these is where those CD seller like to find customer and tricked them into buying their products.

Anyway, just now i encountered one of the rudest CD seller ever, he was like so pushy and bossy, he was like the type of guy that won't take "no" for an answer, worst part he like to touch his customer for persuasion..like touching their hand and shoulder..

My friend Marcus literally got molested by him, he was giving him massage as his persuasion, reason being Marcus was the only one replying him, all of us was like quiet and keeping our head low waiting for him to leave..

Plus, he was being rude, we told him we don't want to, and he start saying shit like " what no time, sure got time one" I mean we were being nice to him and he was pushing his luck..

I had to fake a phone call just to avoid him..

Despicable Me Review

Despicable Me is super super adorable, if cuteness is your thing, you should check this out, if not, you should still check this out for a good entertaining experience

Paul The Octopus

Paul the octopus at first hand sounds like some guy with a silly animal codename..but as it turns out Paul is actually, literally just an octopus..now i know the first sentence sound silly, but just wait and see how silly it'll keep getting..

Obviously the world cup is going on and everybody is so keen into it that someone somewhere somehow discovered that this octopus has some supernatural ability to predict the future of each football matches [ hope you can read the sarcasm in my words] and yet somehow every match he predicted it's true..

Now before i go on anything further, i must point out that i hate football, like i hate it so much that i scored an A on my English essay for criticizing it, just imagine the joy of that..Anyway, i really don't see the point of football, it's like watching a bunch of monkey chasing after a banana..i find it totally pointless and everytime i tried to watch the matches finish, i got bored halfway..

Anyway, everyone is so keen on Paul prediction on football matches that they actually use "him" to win bets, suddenly the whole world revolves around this octopus..people actually believe this octopus like they listen to it, like they worship "him" or something..i on the other hand, find this whole World Cup fever a little too bizarre..Like really? using an octopus to play bets? Next thing you know they're using "him" to guess 4D numbers..

Come on people, it's just an octopus, it doesn't have the ability to guess matches alright, now i know people will say something like "then explain how Paul has been right this whole time" To be honest i have no idea but believing an octopus can predict matches is a bit silly..What's even more silly, it has a name..

This is an anti football fan post, if you don't like what you read, please do hate me, but if you agreed then do love me for voicing out when nonsense is occurring..

Predators Review

First off, this is not a remake..second off, this is a pretty good thriller actually..there won't be a time when you have yourself yawning while watching this, what i find most interesting is the sense of humor in the movie, it's actually quite funny unlike all the other lame thriller movie..

Love Scene In Hollywood Movies

I realized nowadays Hollywood is running dry on ideas fast like a speeding bullet..I mean like literally running dry badly..but i"m not talking about that, i want to talk about love scene in movies, I don't know how Director or Producers think but i've noticed that they do certain scene very awkwardly and badly like the whole screenplay was done by a couple of 5 years old..

The love scene is noticeably the worst scene in any movie..if it's done badly of course. I remembered a few of them, reason of me remembering them is because it's so badly done that it became memorable..

It's either the love scene is just stupid, unnecessary or wrong timing..Now i'm gonna run through all the bad love scene that i've unfortunately seen..

1. The Spy Next Door-Really? First of all the movie is terrible to begin with..so do we really need to see Jackie Chan do kissing scene with some girl..is that how we want to remember him by?

2. Hitman-Apparently they messed it up on purpose.. he's a clone who is created and programmed to assassinate..do your homework..

3.Clash Of The Titan-Another bad movie to begin with..the love scene in here is totally unnecessary..

4.Prince Of Persia-This is the dumbest love scene i've seen this year, in the middle of falling wall and shattering ground with no time left to spare..the prince and the girl can stop for a short kiss..haven't he read..save the world so you can save the girl as well..

5.Tekken-Now i know this movie isn't out yet..but from the trailer i can already tell there's gonna be some stupid love scene in it that's doesn't exist in the game..

Some of the best movie are ruined because of their love scene counter part..some of the best movie doesn't have a single love scene, some of the worst movie are saved by love scene..Nowadays to me, love scene is just embarrassing to watch in cinema, because it's like an afterthought and no real emotion, it's all scripted..shit is crazy..

Hollywood, you guys need a love doctor..Is every single Hollywood director, producer or writer desperate and can't find love, so they throw in their wildest fantasy romantic love imagination into movie to express myself..God then i hate to see what they'll do with sex scene..

Kinght And Day Review

I expected more from a Tom Cruise movie, this is not it..Cheap rip off, poorly executed, boring, medicore version of Mr and Mrs.Smith.

Real World Begins

I have officially graduate from SEGi, well unless you count the convocation thing then no..I'm still stuck in that hell hole..but i want to keep this as optimistic as possible, so i am a fresh graduate now..so i should rejoice right, no..actually i have nothing to celebrate about because after this crap i'm gonna have a bigger crap..the working life i shall approach..sigh.

You know how kids at very young age are always complaining about school life is awful, working is much better cause they can earn money..well, if i could turn back time and tell them how wrong their freaking tiny microorganism brains are..i will. I will because i'm one of those kids, school life was terrible for me, i never like it and never will but if i were given a chance to choose school life or working life..hell i will choose school life all over again.

I'm experiencing working life right now and right now i'm experience the first phrase..searching for job. Shit ain't easy, people are hard on you, everybody's looking for somebody whose work can be clarify as acceptance..shit ain't easy. Running up and down looking for the working places here and there, after this having the need to please the people whose in charge of interviewing you, after that your artwork must be good enough for them to think you're welcome in their workplace, despite all those done, salary and traveling distance is another major pain in the butt crack..

Sigh, guess that's life..it's pretty stressful, no wonder some people committed suicide, life is a roller coaster and my car hasn't arrive yet so my only option is taking public transportation, although the transport here are much better and nicer than those in Melaka, i still don't like using it due to unforgiving experience i had in the past..I'm still waiting for my car from Melaka..

Right now at this point of life, i need luck, faith, hope and God more than ever, i need these 4 thing in my life now more than ever. I pray that He will look after me over this journey of my working life..

Pretty much after this, the next big step is putting the world smallest handcuff on our ring finger huh..

Allergic To Dizzie

Dizzie look like she's shock by this post.

I have a friend..who has a cat..who has some sort of ability..that make me think that i might be allergic to her. Now, this post might have be called "Allergic To Cat" now that can't possible happen because i've been around with lots of cat and this is the only one that make me sick all the time i'm near her.

Ladies and gentlemen, on one corner we have the boy from Malacca, weighing 55kg with a diploma of Creative Multimedia, Nicholas Tan [the crowd roar loud and cheer even louder] and his opponent tonight, the mysterious street cat whose now owned by someone else, Dizzie [the crowd's start sneezing like me]

Here's the thing, this is what the cat is capable of, anytime i'm near it, i will sneeze and i will sneeze non stop like there's a tornado inside my nose, the only time i'll return back to normal mode is when i leave the place..sometime I'll be sneezing so hard that i thought my nose was going to fall off like Michael Jackson's nose..shit is crazy. In fact now i think about it, maybe her name should have been Sneezie instead of Dizzie.

It's ashamed cause this way i have to always be careful when i'm in my friend's house or i can't be anywhere near Dizzie. Sorry Chlo Chlo, I like Dizzie and all but i'm allergic to her, it's a dangerous love affair.
