Finally Clinical Year!

Guys I'm finally in the clinical.

Why did I used the word finally? Here let me tell you a lil bit bout my journey so far. After SPM, I got offered from JayPeeEh (misspell just for the sake it's not google-able) I learn a new trick from blog reading I've been doing past two-three weeks. Anywho, they offered me scholarship to continue my studies into Medicine in Indonesia. So I did my A-level in KayTeeTee, somewhere in Sepang for a whole year. Unfortunately, down the road, Indonesia had some kind of trouble, accreditation issues, earthquake issues, I don't wanna dwell on it. 

Then when placement time came, they were short-listing the students to enter to the top universities and some of us were thrown back to the lesser universities where we had to study in their mother tongue. After some quiries here and there, me n my parents decided we didn't want to go ahead with their plan and wanted to shift to Egypt. I got the placement and everything but then they didn't want to divert my scholarship to Egypt despite it being cheaper than the one they're offering. 

So I had the 'it's now or never' moment. I went to Egypt without any scholarship and it was a big burden to my parents. Medic. Everyone knows how expensive it is. T_T thank you ma, pa. Then in my second year I was offered Mara loan. I was ecstatic. Yeay! Lessen le parents burden. But little did I know what the Egyptians were planning. 

Riot! Riot everywhere. I'll tell you the riot story in some other post some other day. We came back - both me and my sister in the second year. We came back, then started looking for place to continue studying in Malaysia. Then I found YemYesYu. I got YemYemCee and KayPeeTee approval and they told me I could continue into the second year which means I won't lose any year and I was contented. Not exactly happy. I was a bit reluctant to come back because I'm comfortable with the Egyptian system and everything no matter how screwed up it is. Friends. I gain some trustworthy friends there. 

However my sister got accepted only in India, that also have to repeat from 1st year. We went back to Egypt, brought back all our stuffs and ready to enrol when suddenly YemYesYu turn back and said "No, you have to start all over again because we want to milk money from you." Okay okay they didn't exactly said like that but it what it sounded like! Huh. Heartbroken I started my classes all over again. I was depressed. Honestly. Hey, medic is ain't easy peasy thing, you know? 

I know I know, along the line I realized everything that had happened has a reason. I'm grateful now but back then it was like my world turn grey. The only good thing was, I am finally with my family after being away ever since I was 13. (Hostel, college and stuff) 

Back to my story, so I started all over again. From first year. With people younger by two, three years younger than me. First year. Done. Second year. Done. Finally third year! 

There you go. Why I used the word finally.

Top 5 Arranged Marriage movies I can't get enough of! Plus Raja Rani reviews.

Last weekend I went to the movies with my family. We decided to watch Raja Rani which stars Arya hottie hunk and Nayanthara hottie chick. God bless my eyes because I just can't get enough of Arya in the movie. And if I'm not mistaken it's Nayanthara first movie after her break up with Prabhu Deva.



The movie was good. Got me laughing from the first scene itself. The casts are a feast to the eyes and I got to admit I'm loving this version of Sathyaraj. For the first time to me, he's acting his age and tone down his acting. None of the high-pitch voice. It seems more genuine. 

*Beware Spoilers* You could scroll down and skip it. 

The scene started with Arya's friend going havoc trying to find him, thinking he went escape from the wedding where else he just went out for a puff. Then the scene the bride is getting ready, as gorgeous as ever, Nayanthara was stunning, as usual. Her wedding gown is something that materialize from my dream, well sort of, but she looks absolutely amazing in it. 



They proceed to stand in front of the minister who is conducting the wedding. John (Arya) says his vows with all the write words and everything. And then the girl seems unsure as ever, says the wrong name! Dun dun! Her father collapse clutching his heart, having us to think the wedding is gonna stop or something, but it went on. You fool me there Mr Director. They got married but with the most disgust and annoyed face ever. 

Their first night was nothing less than horror where Regina (Nayanthara) cried herself to sleep while John having a festive watching the tv. First few days (what it seems like) they never talked to each other, just ignoring the other's presence, going to work on their own, while at night she cried and he drink himself to oblivion and get back home and torture her life. 



She even asked for a transfer for her job and her husband was unaffected when he overheard her conversation. Then the movie started to take a route when she while crying herself to sleep again suffers a stroke. When the doctor asked him about her details, he couldn't tell any because he was too drunk/don't really care about her too know them. After that, he starts taking care of her bit by bit (after being scolded by the doctor) when she told him her story life. 

She fell in love with an innocent man Jai (Surya) after series of funny incident. They went out. Eventually exchanged rings at church (unofficially married). His father was against it while her father was all up for it. They were suppose to get married at the registrar office when he left her unnotified while she waited at the registrar whole day. Then her father suffers heart attack and when he's admitted she found out Surya committed suicide and got her first stroke attack. 3 years later her father asked her to get married and that's her story.



He cried which I thought was unnecessarily after her 'touching' story. Then he fell in love with her. Started taking care of her until she got fed up which led her to scream at him in front of 'erbody in the hospital. Then he got drunk and his friend Santhanam Sarathy reveals John's past. 

John fell in love with a girl Nazriya Nazmi (Kerthaana) while collecting a cheque. He kept on bugging the girl for the cheque whereas actually he was only trying to tackle her. Turns out she also was into him as she got the cheque a week earlier but didn't gave it to him just to so that he'll bug her. Weird I know but what a girl in love would do for a guy. Anyway soon they got together and he tied thali on her in kuil (again unofficially married). It was all sad and sob because she was an orphan who didn't have anyone and waited all her life for someone to be by her side. Then they were out on a happy outing when suddenly she got hit by a car while crossing a road. She died in front of him tragically. 4 years later, unbeknownst to his parent that he got married once and his wife died, they sought him out to get married. 




So eventually that's how Regina and John got married. When she heard his story, she had a change of heart. She starts warming up to him but didn't show too much. One fine day, she wakes him up lovingly when he thought she had a change of heart. Turns out it's just because her father was around. So it was all an act. It was his birthday and everyone gathered for him. She gave him a gift asking him not to open in front of everyone. Out of emotion he threw the presents while he's in his room but his father in law saw it and started wondering if they're happy together.




Following day, she got the transferr to Aussie but is confused whether to go or not. That night, Regina bought a beer for John which supposedly showing a sign of affection or that she wants something (it's a thing between her and her father) but he misunderstood because he saw her ticket and he thought she was about to ask for a divorce. He got emotional again. 

Which leads her actually wants to leave. Once at the airport both reluctant to separate but both stupid enough not telling their feelings. Then suddenly she saw Surya who acted like he didn't know her. She told him and he was suppose to act all noble and bring them together. Turns out she didn't want to go back to him and even Surya forgotten her already. Which is false because he walked away looking sorrowly at his ring she gave him. Then she got fed up and ended up opening her heart to him and he chase her and live happily ever after.




*End Spoiler*

I love the concept and everything but I just hate it how they left things hang about Surya's departure all the sudden. It's like 'Okay we did all the mushy things now let's just get this over with as quick as we can'. Come on. Give us some explanation. 

Nazriya Nazim was awesome. She's pretty not too over sexy, still have the classic Indian look. I loved her in her first movie Neram even tough she didn't have much screen time in it it left an impact to make me remember her. And this time she was all cute and bubbly and makes one just wanna hug her, pat her on her hair. Her acting was superb unlike Tamanna in her first few movie where she was so awkward. I could see her go far. Maybe one day act alongside Surya or Vijay. It is said once you act with either one you're up there already. It is written somewhere in Kollywood must-do somewhere. Hehe. Joking. 

Okay back to our main topic.

Top 5 Arrange Marriage Movie I loved

1) Sillinu Oru Kadhal

- just because of Surya and Jyothika! 
- story line was awesome
- beautiful songs
- I could watch it over and over again




2) Vivaah

- this movie could made it to top if it wasn't for Surya in first place
- Shahid Kapoor at his best before he went into comedy
- just love the innocent love between them
- it was tragic but if it wasn't for his willingness to marry her even after the accident, the movie wouldn't be so awesome as it is




3) Just Married

- Fardeen Khan! I've said it once I'll said it again. I have a thing for bad boys
- smoldering eyes
- how they were trying to make it work slowly as friends instead of pushing each other away. I could relate. I mean how could you sleep with someone you just met.
- ending bit clichè but hey, it got them together.




4) Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam

- I was all Salman Khan fan during the time the movie came out and was immensely upset she end up with Ajay Devgan instead of Salman
- but once I grew up I realized Ajay deserve her so much better
- loving husband willing to sacrifice his happiness for the wife. Can't go wrong.




5) Hum Saath Saath Hain

- this is more of a family movie but could be included in the list since all the marriage is technically arranged by the parents
- love the devotion of Tabu to the husband with shaky hands
- Salman! Just adore him and Sonali
- this was when Saif still have the innocent look going on and together with Karisma just so cheeky



              I dunno why the pic seems like they're choking their wives but there you go

With all the fiction going on about how arranged marriage is a beautiful thing, I could resort to it. Although life is no fairy tale. I could end up with someone who pretends to be one person and is whole new person with their spouse. But then same goes to couples who were together for years before getting hitched but then separated because they shared everything before the marriage, there's nothing new to learn about your spouse after marriage. I guess both have their pros and cons. Anyway, our soulmate has been written for us. Sooner or later we'll find them. Let's just pray he's our prince charming we dreamed our whole life.

This is my Coup D'ètat (According to G-dragon)! And Let's Talk About Seungri!


This post is dedicated to yet another G-Dragon post simply because he's AWESOME. Slowly but surely I'm turning into YGStan and G-Dragon fangirl.

G-Dragon or also known by his real name Kwon Ji Yong have proved to everyone why he's called the king of KPOP. He's like Michael Jackson coming back to live. I hope this isn't too burdensome to put on him but he's just too awesome I see MJ in him. 

Coup D'Etat is French for Revolution. Or something like a throw down of a government. 

My favorite line from this song is, Hid more tightly, I can see you head..

The first time I saw the MV I couldn't understand and my eyebrows were raised. Like heh another part of GD I couldn't understand. The other part was his fashion sense. I'm sorry but sometimes i just couldnt brain it. But the song was good. The chorus was catchy. I. Simply. Love. Slow. Hip hop. 

And then I saw this link.

http://www.scribd.com/mobile/doc/164805066

It's all about the enigma of the MV explained. Then I was like.. :0 I was completely amazed. How amazing they managed to tell that kind of story in a four minutes of MV. The part about how he couldn't be with his one true love almost got me to tears. 


And his 5 deaths. 


This part was kinda scary for me. Gulp.



And his fight with inner self to let Kwon Ji Yong out. 



And he came out victoriously.


Woohoo. Anyway, just hours after his part 1 album release, there's already noise about how it's wrong and trying to manipulate Muslim's beliefs. 

Let me break it down to you people. From my understanding yo.

This is a gospel AMEN
When I saw the translation, I guess one could jump to conclusion "Ooooooo he's trying to convert us. Banish it before it lays eggs." The sentence was dripped with sarcasm if you couldn't tell. But one could also do a bit of research and actually learn something. 

So I took the initiative to dig in. 
Firstly, what does the word gospel means? 

Gospel means an account that describes birth, death and resurrection. So when GD said 'This is a gospel' it means his life story of his birth, death, and the resurrection. Even in Islam, sometimes, they call the Injil as gospel. There's no such thing if you go and read the lyrics in anyway converting you to Christianity. It's not that simple as that. It requires you to actually say you want out and act it. Now don't get me wrong. I'm not telling you to how to.. Nauzubillah. May Allah forbid. 

Secondly, what I'm telling you is to check before you talk. You don't want to sound stupid right? Don't just assume everything is wrong. You make life tougher and you make Islam sounds so bad. Stop it. I'm telling this to those who have misunderstanding to GD. 

Thirdly, the racism issue. Just because he painted his face black you assume he's mocking the blacks. Come on, he did a song with Missy Elliot for god sake you'd think he'd be doing stuff like that. I bet he doesn't have an ounce of racist in his gene. Let's see from artistic point of view. 

What does black refers to? Depression, sadness, mourning, the end, evil and whereas red represent nobility, victory. 

Well maybe to some people that's the whole point. They don't have an artistic bone in their body hence they can break the code. 

Hehe.

Anyway, no hates, all love please. 

After all he's boiling money. ;) 


Life's a peephole. Especially famous celebrity. You only know what he/she portrays, so no judgement unless you're best friends. Oh wait best friend don't judge each other. 


Black was amazing. It's my favorite. R.O.D lyric was beautiful. Niliria was good too. 

By the way, enough of the educational part. 

Updated : - 

Coup D'Ètat part 2 came out this afternoon and I only got the chance to check out the MV Crooked.

Put it simple, I love the let's run wild and free, hunched, rocker, rebel/trouble-maker side of GD. ♪♫ Saranghagopeunde sangdae eopgo ♪♫

Next is Let's Talk About Seungri!




I'm in love with this guy since I heard about BigBang. He was the first one to catch my eyes (it's weird I know).

To be honest, when the teaser came out, it was bit, scratch that, a lot risqué, I was afraid to watch it. But the video wasn't so bad. So relieved.

His first solo album was good but I thought he was trying too hard to show his mature side, it appeared bit awkward. But now, hokshi! Uri maknae is all grown up. His charisma, his crisp thin voice, his suave move, waaaaahhhh... 



The songs were good, and I was captivated by how genuine the lyric was. He wrote them and you can feel it was all him.

And uri maknae was better this time when he's performing. Eye contact. And have anyone tell you how he's a king of fan service. Props to the girl for being the memorable one at the event. 

Gotta talk to you was pretty. Catchy and quite easy to catch on. Seungri moves got me trying them out and I really can't dance. *blush* 

Let's talk about love was a gift since we get to hear both GD and Taeyang in it. And have you heard Taeyang rappin'? Holy good. Smexy! And GD was awesome not overshadowing anyone else. 



Starting from this week both boys going head to head. But truthfully it doesn't feel like a competition. It feels like we're being gifted with two presents on our birthday. I wish my birthday is everyday. 







Aigoo, what are these guys doing to my heart. I'm suppose to be a BOICE. 


Can I be both VIP+BOICE? 

:)

Sorry YongHwa I'm not betraying you.

CnBlue BMMY!!


It was my first rock concert EVER!

Yesterday was the epic-est day ever! I get to see my ultimate bias live on stage. YongHwa!

 소리 지르!!!! 

Crossing out number 12. 'Watch CnBlue live' out of my list. 

It was the best night ever. They just make you wanna jump and dance around with their beats. They started off the set that goes like this :-

Where You Are
Get Away
One Time (Kor Ver.)
Naran Namja
Coffee Shop
Have a Good Night
Wake Up
Love Light
Feeling
These Days (Kor. Ver.)
Y, Why (Kor. Ver.)
Lalala
Just Please (Kor. Ver.)
Tattoo 
In My Head (Kor. Ver.)
Intuition
I'm a Loner
I'm sorry

Encore
Hey You
Feel Good (Brand new!!!)
Love Girl
You've Fallen For Me
Love
Try Again, Smile Again

YongHwa was dancing all night, smiling, being all playful, hitting some high notes, it was truly a beautiful rock concert. They spoke English fluently thru out the night, at one point YongHwa asked if he can speak in Korean which most of us replied Yessss but he continued speaking in English and some beautiful Malay as well. 



Yonghwa: Can you speak Korean? 
Fans: yeah!
Yonghwa: jeongmalyo?
Fans: Yeah!
Yonghwa: Saranghae?
Fans: kyaaaaaaa!

"Kamu rindu saya?"

JungShin and YongHwa was especially good with their Malay got me thinking they should just start promoting here actively.. Or change their citizenship to Malaysian. ^_^V

JungShin was friendly and hyper like YongHwa and I just adore him. He's truly Nation's Chinggu.




They told us in Malay they had Satay and today they had Nasi Lemak for breakfast. And then Minhyuk did this mimicking of how he ate satay and it was cuteeeee... Everybody went kyaaaaaaa!




JongHyun didn't talk much and when he sings sometimes it's barely audible but still nonetheless we love you. I heard he's having sore throat or something? 


For Love Light the fan mission was a success. We held up the pink heart and made a pink heart ocean. It was sweet and romantic. 




Yong sent some flying kisses (he's very generous with them) and did some aegyo.. Sigh.. in love...

And then when YongHwa started playing piano for the song Feeling only with spotlight on him..waaaaaa it was a magnificent view. Looked a lot like he wanted to gobaek.. He was serenading us fans. And by the middle of it I was in tears. Literally. It was utterly beautiful.



                                                      It was this beautiful

During Coffee Shop everybody was singing and dancing along, followed on cue for the chanting part. The boys looked like they were enjoying themselves.

They ended the night with a selca like they did in other Blue Moon concert..


YongHwa did a impromptu snippet on Malaysia. Oh Malaysia.. This is my nostalgia...

Watching them live just bring back the fangirl in me. 

Kkuk! One day I'll meet you YongHwa. (Either the proper version of him or the rock god!!)




JongHyun impressed with Malaysian fans.

http://youtu.be/O7PEaRZG1II

Hope you boys enjoy your stay in Malaysia and kkuk you have to come back again!

P/S: I didn't get to take many pics because I was slightly further away and the ticket lady kept on flashing lights at whoever snapping pics or taking videos. So thank you to others and credit to each owners.

Double P/S : Sorry I didn't mention much abut the others, because the whole night my eyes was only on YongHwa. :P
