Iron Man 3.

You have no idea how much I like the opening of Marvel movies. The flipping of the comics will always be the start of my excitement. A little pity this time, because the opening wasn't accompanied by the typical sound effects of the flipping of the pages.
 
I could totally understand when good friend Cyclops said that he found this movie 'so-so only'. I would say, Shane Black didn't make the movie as spectacular as the previous director did. Didn't quite like some of the jokes, and the transitions of two particular scenes were not so good. What I didn't like most was the idea of the making of the bad guys in the story (shall not be a spoiler for now in case there are people who haven't watched and are intending to). Reminds me a lot of Resident Evil. I would have preferred a storyline more individualised.
 
Apart from those, I think the movie didn't disappoint me eventually. Initially I was losing hope when I thought it was going to be another typical ending of the hero to the rescue of the damsel in distress. Thank goodness it wasn't all that cliche. And when I was going to sink into depression upon Pepper's death, another surprise got me. Phew.
 
I enjoyed the action-pack so much! And I always like forgetting that I'm actually sitting in a theatre when I watch a good movie. "It's the experience that counts." Totally! Sometimes I really secretly hope that Channel 5 doesn't air Marvel movies so that people will step into theatres to have a good feel of the impacts.
 
Then I suddenly realised that I never fail to catch a Marvel production this time every year for the past three years. X-Men First Class with good friend Cyclops in June 2011, The Avengers with Dean in May 2012, and today, the long-awaited Iron Man 3 with Yanli! Somehow, Marvel movies always complete me.
 
I know, I'm probably going to live in my Marvel world again for the next one week or two. You know, the post-Marvel syndrome.

I'll never understand.

Some people, you try to break them before you build them. Some people, you are only remembered by them when they need your help. Some people, you spend time trying to change them only to realise you were never someone who could impact their lives. Some people, they hurt you so much but you know, they are just not worth it. So, don't bother. ASPIRE 2010 was a screwed yet another learning experience for me this time. I'd really like to thank my fellow peers for going through shit with me. And thank goodness that I believe in miracles. You never know what happens until the last minute, really. I never felt so shagged, and devastated about people.

All the small things.

So blonde Neo came with a packet of sushi and my chrysanthemum tea and Mr. Bean's pancakes. We continued to gorge ourselves with cones (actually just 2) of Cornetto which I bought to reward myself after a long time of not having eaten ice cream. We studied and also watched The Family Court. I really feel sad for AhWU that everyones hates his Leshan role but I guess he's right that actors and actresses like to see audiences' reactions towards their acting. What a breakthrough for him! Had supper with Shirl and Eh Chris! at somewhere nearby. Continued to study with Angie and we (or rather I) had a bad night because she was coughing quite badly. Blonde Neo I tell you, you better start drinking bottles of water when you get home today. NO MORE CHIPS!!! I'm watching you.... So anyway, in the morning we had Mac breakfast and Angie FINALLY invited me to her house wheeeeeeeee. Happening hor? Meeting the climates (Auntie Rainbow, Sunshine boy and Rain) later to celebrate mid-aut...
