Back home, from the Devil Wears Prada. Hrm. On a scale of 5, I would give it a 3.5? I don't know. A pretty showoff movie of items from designer houses, that of Prada of course, and others such as DKNY, Jimmy Choos, etc.. and it goes on.
Okay, so I am going to drop the bomb here. Spoiler alert.
====
Movie is generally about a girl with some dreams to be a journalist. She has a nice, blah blah boyfriend and a good pair of close friends. Ended up in the fashion magazine publication as part of her step to the Dream Job. Boss is Dragon Lady. The girl is a fashion pee-wee. Girl falls for fashion, gets career obsessed, breaks up with boyfriend, had some "lifechanging moments", returned home after quitting job and be with boyfriend again.
Typical, no? The kind of movie that should be reminding you of the choices you make; the directions that you set for yourself are entirely in your own hands. Blah blah. Although here, I would say it seemed to be in her boyfriend's hands. True, you had your dreams. But that don't mean, you cannot discover passion in areas you never thought you could excel.
And the mister boyfriend? He is such the sucker. Just because she got a bit busy- he said, they dont have much in common- shes now into fashion & (he is into loserdom). I dont understand. Why must it be an either or sort of situation?
Well, I think I just convinced myself the rating should only be about 2.5. :) And in any case, watching any type of chickflick movies after a mad mad week is really a destressor. And now, I shall destress in bed.

It was raining heavily this morning. Nevertheless, there was a certain air of merriment that embraced the entire school. It seemed as if spirits are higher and moods generally uplifted. And no, I don't know if it was the joy on their faces as they said, "Happy Teachers' Day!", their hands holding the little gifts they brought along that gave me this feeling of cheeriness. Was it the fact that tomorrow is a gazetted public holiday for us noble workers? Perhaps it is a mixture of everything- all I do know is it certainly is as cool as my birthday. *haha!* My first present of the day- Stitch! Wrapped bouquet-style. And I am touched by the parents' warmth and generosity to say the least. Ever since Monday, in fact, we have had chicken pies, cakes, pastries- you name it.
Or mayyybeee.. it is knowing that I -will- be watching Devil Wears Prada in a few hours time! =D And checking out my shirts. Yeah! You know, this whole stayaway stint of mine seemed to be working a certain healing effect upon me really well. I feel relaxed, soothed.... ahh.
You were always the mysterious one
With dark eyes and careless hair
You were fashionably sensitive
But too cool to care

Latest entry comes with a new layout. Y'all like it? No? Really. I don't care, though. *chuckles. Perhaps I am just not being fair to Blogspot here, because the reason I am actually blogging here again is because I am staying away from myspace.com and msn messenger for a while. You know, running games. Here and there. There and here. I intended to set up a new account actually. And then I thought, what the heck. Let's just go on from here.
As far as I am concerned, my week has ended! The past few days AND nights were plain mad crazy. I felt like Rumpelstiltzkin trying to churn golden straws within a certain period of time. After class ended a few hours ago, I just felt like running through the wet streets of Orchard. =D Oh that free feeling just is like shackles being cut open from my legs and hands. Sorry, assignments just sort of have that kind of effect.
Work is not letting up as well, what with the dance practices. And finally! The choreography was finished- yours truly. hehe~ And the whole team has practiced and we have gotten it down (well, almost) to a science. And then come the actual event- Saturday! Ah, I hope all will go well.
Truth is, I am running from anything that smells even remotely male. I suddenly get this revolting feeling about males. And so, I am shutting myself away from friends who happen to be boys. (sorry dudes) I guess, until I change my mind, you won't be seeing me around. Don't need to be understood, though. :) Sometimes, I truly feel ruthless and.. who knows someday, unfeeling completely.
Ahh. Away with that for now, I am watching Devil Wears Prada tomorrow- and I might possibly shop soon. And then there is also Friday night. For now, these are all that matters. :)
