Apart from spending my time thronging thru CDs at music record shops, reading magazines about more CDs and blastin' them on my lao ya/lok kok/cannot make it mini HiFi by my bedside; I also have a life and other hobbies too mind you!
I do not call myself a movie buff, but I enjoy watching a handful of genres that interest me! Spent the wee hours of Saturday morning watching a super lame, but thoroughly amusing movie starring Ben Stiller! It's called Zoolander, which is a parody of the celluloid world of supermodels and Hollywood. With numerous cameo appearances by famous celebrities, countless puns, Stephen Chow-esque side gags and a strong-as-paper storyline, it tickled my bones silly and left my belly aching throughout the show!!! If you like the works of Stiller (e.g. Meet the parents/Fockers, Dodgeball, Something about Mary, etc), you will definitely love this!!
I also like reading. Surprise!! A hobby I picked up during NS, yeah my dark ages, read all sorts of literature as well - hence my twisted taste and morbid humour. Managed to finish reading a book I bought during IA which I couldn't complete during IA - Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. The author's debut was a riveting insight of a pre-war Afghanistan that was spun around the story between two childhood friends, Amir and Hassan, and was intricately weaved till post 9/11 era. This melancholic tale truly expressed love in many forms, a father's, a brother's , a friend's and also God's love. A chinese phrase aptly summarized this novel - Xi Nu Ai Le. The story manages to manipulate every sinew of whatever emotions you may have and let you feel for every single heart-stopping, gut-wrenching, tear-jerkking moment in the book. This book also educates readers on the actual microcosm of Afghanistan (where it is not only about the Taliban or Jihad), as well as the teachings of Islam for that matter. The writer managed to include a plethora of witty one-liners as well as thought-provoking anecdotes! This might be one of the hardest books I ever stomached, but it is also one of the most enjoyable reads I had!!
Another thing to recommend is of course a song, duh... Thank God for YouTube, VJ Titanium will present this MTV-friendly tune for all to enjoy! Sounds familiar? It's a cover of Micheal Jackson's hit and it propelled this band to superstar status (for a while...) Just another of my faves!!
