The Runway

-

Assalamualaikum,

I am walking on a runway, wearing a pretty dress and a pair of reasonable high heels. Flashing of lights with clicking sounds from cameras added up to the music’s beat. I can see people I loved standing and cheering their support. Some waved, some smile with teary eyes, and some smirk with their smug eyes. I smile to those who smiled, I wink to those with teary eyes and I stare deep into those smug eyes.

I wonder if I can keep on walking, keeping this bright smile on my pretty face. This pretty dress I am wearing and these reasonable high heels I am walking in, I must present it well. The most important thing is I must not trip. There are times I feel like I am losing my coordination, I am searching for a familiar face from the crowd.

I am yet to see the end of the runway.
This is a long runway, indeed.

Wassalam.

Inception: Movie Review

Assalamualaikum, I must thank Mrs. Huy for mentioning about Inception to me. I am not Mr. DiCaprio's fan after Titanic -- hate his hair in Man in the Iron Mask -- while she is so fond of him. Her excitement leads me to do my research on the movie and luckily I love what I found. So here's what I think about Inception [while it already swept every movie lover and Rotten Tomatoes rate it 86%]. First of all, I'd like to say that I love this movie so much. I enjoy it even though I missed few minutes of the beginning [an obvious reason to watch it again]. Most of it because I am a Cognitive Science graduates and the idea of subconscious mind security thrilled me. The other was just me loving this kind of genre -- movie that gives other headache. So it was fun! I think Inception was still too simple for something as mysterious as our subconscious mind. The idea of having a physical device to invade / share dream was not captivating to me. I did not see the connection of the devic...

Assalamualaikum, It's 4th January 2010; First day of working in 2010. Few days left for this 25 years young lady :) I'm turning 26!!! Eventhough at heart I am forever 13... I am so turning 26! Oh... 25 is like standing on the thin line between young and not young. But 26... the "6" indicate that I have cross over to the other side of the world, which is not so young. The hysterics are more on the fact that I am so very much single and that a wedding is expected and that I am having my first baby when most of women my age would have their second and so on and the question will keep on coming and bugging me. Ugh! Hey hey! I am not that girl who weeps over my age. I am proud of turning 26 and the next. Just that living in this world with these big ears, I hear cruel whispers. Don't you dare blaming my ears; you should mind your words and please get a new hobby other than giving people a hard time. In this departure hall of gate 25, I watch a rerun of how I spent my a...

New Moon, Finally

Assalamualaikum, Golden Screen Cinema, Queensbay Mall, Penang. 9.50 pm, C19. A moment of truth... I LOVE IT!!! Oh my... I have so many things to say about New Moon. I'll try to keep it the shortest :D To Stephanie Meyer for her great writings; to Chris Weitz for sticking to the book, to Melissa Rosenberg for the screenplay, and to the production team of New Moon: Thank you for bringing all my favorite parts into living moments - all are the parts I will read every time. You have done it GREAT. Oh yes, some people might not agree with me; as some prefer tea over coffee. The world is not perfect and it's okay :p I know the saga by heart, and I'm not watching New Moon to know the story. I'm watching New Moon to see it in flesh and blood (and abs if I may add), to witness the moments being pictured by different minds and to give credit to the team for their effort in bringing a fiction to real life. New Moon the movie is just like New Moon the book. Hate the beginning; hat...
