The DaVinci Code

The year most anticipated movie, successfully landed in Malaysia without a single cut. Poor neighbour Thailand that had taken out the final 10 minutes of the movie due to some protest from religious group.

Not that Christian society in Malaysia never display objection, but to be able to realize where on earth our feet is stepping will answer why the film is a not problem at all here. So, the movie got an 18PL rating.

Many kiasu beings started to book the tickets in advance not wanting to be the last to know of the so-big-hit this summer. Well, I’m probably one of them too, who wanted to catch this flick minus the hassle of going through the calling. I’m just lucky to have good friends who will plan & materialize things. Thank you!!!!

Actually, I don’t know much until I read the book. My first time ever, flipping through hundred pages of the-thick-Dan Brown’s book, sold 50 million worldwide in multiple languages. Reading a book prior to the movie! Not Harry Potter, Narnia neither but The DaVinci Code. Inside me, I have this escalated feeling imagining how it would be to have known the story in details, presented in the wide screen ahead of me. I’d love to see the Lourve, The Monalisa, The Last Supper, the cilice, etcetera, etcetera. Things that have been so comprehensive explained for our imaginative mind to wonder.

We are about to lost our cinema seats, being 5 minutes before the booking release. And the ticket attendant seems to hesitate to sell me the tickets, asking me if I am udner 18. Pardon me? I thought I heard wrongly, and she prompted me again asking what my age is. Amused and disbelief, “Huh?” Being polite, I told her I’m 27 this year, only then she processed the tickets. While giving the tickets and my change, she reminded again if prompted for IC while entering the hall, there won’t be any refund as when I fail to get in coz the movie is for age 18 – 18PL. What am I suppose to react ah? Hahahaa…

What have elaborated inside the book, the opening, in quite a number of chapters took merely 15 minutes, rushed in movie. That fast, the adventure begins. Where are all the tiny details in the book that make us not giving in reading, page after page? Huhuhuhu… so monotonous, no excitement in the movie at all… In fact, the movie shortened a lot of scenes in the book… like the part how Proffesor Langdon got called by Collet, how Sophie and Robert runaway from Lourve, and worst 2 cryptex become 1. There are things that are not told inside the title, but are in the movie. And we can’t cling to the ending that is different from the book, instead of being discovered by Grandmother… it’s now Robert who helped Sophie to reveal her true identity, and the sudden appearance of so many knights who have keeping an eye on her all this while. Bull shit man! Nevertheless, I still like the albino monk, Silas in the movie. His role is so outstanding in the film, not to be mistaken that I like his naked butts but I felt pity for his suffering.

My review, this is. I’m not sure whether to have read the book before the movie is good or bad. To some extent, I think the book gave far more interesting insights and better understanding in DaVinci, the movie. I think many who have not read the book might have difficulty grasping the story. However, because the book has already delivered the fiction superbly… it has shoot up my adrenaline to watch the film, only to be disappointed with boringness in the hall for 2 hours 20 minutes. *Yawn*Yawn.

I came out cinema and I told myself never to read another movie title again. Just watch the movie and be entertained!

Would you rather or rather not?

Discovering a secret?

Close your eyes and imagine for a moment that you accidentally found out what you are not suppose to know?

Secret well-kept between 2 persons (or more), that has been going for quite some times without you realized.

Conversation went through and fro, having no idea who started the judgment.

Worst, you are the victim.

How do you feel?

The shocking truth just in front of your eyes, portion of the hush-hush recorded in history that was unsuccessfully erased.

Heart cramped, oh-no…. not good feeling obviously, a sense of billions bees stinging, all at one time.

 

 

You wonder what’s happening.

What created this hostility that people were not in favor of you?

Could it be something you have done wrong without conscious?

These people that you are close with, happens to see almost everyday, maybe.

In the olden days, the elderly have already advised.

“You can’t fully trust a person eventhough you feel like he is your good pal.

‘Coz one day, you never know this pal get your own back.”

Of course you wanted the best for everything. Perfectionist, maybe.

But some times, these people just wouldn’t appreciate what you’ve taught them.

They treat you very nice at surface and they uttered owing you abundant of thanks.

But deep done inside is a different story.

 

 

So, you think again. Think and think and think again.

Why? What’s the reason?

Well, you know some people do revenge. Either physically or emotionally.

Just because you’ve learnt and questioned the integrity of his obligation.

Withholding unreasonable lies, and not standing up to his own fault.

So it doesn’t matter. You don’t want things to turn bad either.

And there you kept the secret within yourself after discussing with the man of authority, saving the future of this fellow by giving a second chance.

Since then, come the allies, wandering off.

He left unfriendliness. Not at least thankful.

 

 

Now, one truth is out. But nobody knows the other truth, except the man of authority.

Who’s the culprit now?

How to get yourself out of this? Everyone think you are the problem.

Who know what actually lie in you?

Remain only suffers, a pledge of not to tell anyone.

Swallow only the silent tears.

Excerpt from book

The time has come. They said it’s the end of days soon. The end of Pisces era, enter the period of Aquarius.

 

 

Opus Dei has been keeping an eye all along on every move of the Priory, waiting anxiously to steal the Holy Grail. Almost there and yet the Teacher now standing alone, having no followers, one by one gone. Holding the cryptex in his hand, he thought he can engage new group to be at his service him. Little does he knows that the papyrus in the vial surrounded with vinegar inside the cryptex has been emptied earlier, taken away.

 

Holy Grail refers to a cup, a symbolic sign of the chalice that ultimately refers to the Venus, the Eve, the one with initial of M, double M. It was incredible, not knowing by most that the God is with her, through her, given her a strong and prominence. It is then they believed that the female hold the fate of the world, and again the time has come to reveal it is the sign of the potent chalice.

 

Hahaha… what held here was just a crap from a scrap of the famous title by Dan Brown. The secret is safe, and wasn’t intended to be naked to the many fellowships, not just anyone.

Izinkan ku bersajak….

Musim sepi kian melanda,

Diabaikan kerana ingin bersama,

Diriku bukan,

Namun terbang jua dirimu.

Di saat kau memerlukan,

Dahanku kau singgah,

Terik dan redup mahupun hujan,

Aman kau rasa di bawah rimbunanku.

Saban hari kita berkongsi,

Pencarian dan pengalaman yang baru,

Setiap jalan kekadangnya berliku,

Tabah diharungi ceria sentiasa.

Kini berkecaian sudah,

Hubungan akrab yang pernah dibina,

Kau dibawa pergi seperti yang diimpikan,

Dan meninggalkanku di embun senja.

Di saat kau nun jauh di langit,

Ku tetap segak di atas bumi,

Inginku kau bahagia,

Inginkan juga kau tidak alpa padaku.

Dengarkah kau rintihanku ini?

Janganlah kau kacang lupakan kulit,

Seharap-harapnya kau sedari,

Ku masih setia di bumi.

A Practical Guide

Venusians are very dependent. But sometimes, many forgot their Venus root.

 

Dscn1568 Before Martians invasion to planet Venus, Venusian likes to share her feelings, her stories, basically everything with another Venusian. This is the value implanted many, many years ago.

 

Martians learnt that in order to be admired and appreciated by Venusians, they need to show that they care. Every single tiny act or word of theirs works wonders in the Venusian’s point system. This explains why Venusian is so contented when Martian takes an effort to come out from the car with umbrella to pick up Venusian at rain.

 

Martians are blunt to decode Venusians words. Vice-versa. In Mars, they don’t talk their problems unless they need a solution. But in Venus, they love to share their problems, hoping to hear in return some comforting or supportive words, solution not.

 

Most likely, Martian finds it hard to understand Venusian’s feelings. Venusian blames Martian for not being understood. At the end of the day, it’s still advisable for Venusians to go back to their Venus’s counterpart for channeling feelings.

 

Value of the story:

Venusian should not abandon the Venusian who completes hers, even if a Martian comes along completing her life. Peace ~  d(^_^)b

にほん (Nihon = Japanese) りょうり (Ryori = food)

The impression of dining in PGH is exquisite. Tried all its F&B outlets, except the Jap wing. Small crowd of us, Jap food lovers, we finally made our way there. Hmm…totally disappointment.

 

Firstly, environment is out. No Jap atmosphere at all, just like any ordinary restaurant. Sitting nearby the kitchen entrance, somehow can peep the interior as the door open & close in brief seconds. Unpleasant.

 

 

Secondly, the menu is so unattractive. Set menu was presented once seated. So English oriented. Price ok. A-la-carte menu upon request, haah… good to see some ひらがな・かたかな (hiragana/katakana).

 

Thirdly, long wait for the food. Food taste – nothing supreme, satisfaction not achieve. Non にほんじん(Japanese) Chef, no wonder la….

 

 

The Jap eatery in Pan Pac is way far superior, as if were to compare hotel to hotel. Anyhow, I’m currently fancy of having Jap buffet. Jogoya @ Starhill Gallery ~ hearing many plusses comments, very fresh sashimi. おいしい! (Oishii!) Good food comes at higher price, especially for にほんりょうり. Anyone interested to makan there? いきましう (Ikimasho = let’s go)! Call me along ya! ありがとね (Arigato ne).

9 months of pregnancy

I got my very first child when I was young at the age of 21 or 22. Well, as a single parent, I’ve no problems to raise him at all. With savings from Hiestand, I didn’t need any financial support from my family. In fact, they have been very encouraged of me in the first place. As a matter of fact, I think I’m the first among the peers to have a small kid on my own. Well, life goes on….

 

Frankly, I have spent a lot of times with him. I try to take good care of his being, his cleanliness, and dressings and I even given him a personality of its own. Sometimes, I drive him crazy, and almost got him into mishap, not once but many times. But each time is so blessing, and I really thankful to God for protecting us both from getting hurt. Although there was one time, heavy rain, the reckless lorry driver came close and knocked him. I was so scared at that moment…but then relieved when I knew no severe injury. Just some physical scars on the body. Once again, I felt grateful. Unfortunately, compare to many others around, my baby is so prone to wound his arms and legs. Just don’t understand why… and because of this, I’ve become so conscious and overprotective on him, everyday.

 

Then, last August, when he knew I’m getting another child soon… he started to misbehave. Upset me with many tricks of his, I suppose he’s ‘kecil hati’ and showing his hatred. Meanwhile, I do still care for him. Just that I felt nausea at times, and encountered many hiccups, both from my current baby and the-soon-new-born. Not forgetting pressures from family.

 

Time goes by; days by days, months by months waiting anxiously for the new arrival. Soon, times flew…9 months and came the due date to welcome new member into the family. Last Thursday. So happy, and yet so worry that once again I need to handle with care. Fragile. When something new begins, something old ends. Although not always the case, but this is what happened here. I’ve sent my first child away, and I was sad to know that it almost losses his life on the day I surrender him, yesterday. Sob and frustrated, but am helpless to commit more. Now that I have my new baby to play with… just as every mother who had given birth will go through, I’m now under confinement, a month, or two for max ~ Driving like a tortoise who have just gotten its “P”, everything need to be handle with care and meticulous. No more the speedy F1 SLK, but trying to be a responsible one instead. Hahahahahaha……what were you thinking about, in the first place? Gotcha =P
