Are you LOST??

As some of you have known, especially the avid LOST followers, Season 3 has recently come to an end. And the ending is great but there are even more questions arise from the season finale.

There was a recent announcement that the remaining 3 series, which makes LOST a full six season series. The last 3 seasons will run uninterrupted for 16 episodes culminating in a shocking finale in 2009-2010.

The numbers "48 15 16 23 42" is a lottery number which earned Hugo a.k.a Hurley nearly 150 million dollars.

Can u imagine what would you do with that amount of money??

Of course Hugo went on a spending spree, buying a huge mansion, a shop of his own which all got destroyed by some strange series of events. His winnings instead brought him more misery and disaster and from dat day on, he believed that those numbers are CURSED. AS he had discovered from some dude in a rehabiliation centre.

In LOST, those numbers actually appear again and again in the show,

"48 15 16 23 42"
  • Oceanic Flight 815
  • The sum of all the numbers, 48+15+16..... equals to 108 which is the time frame where Desmond had to enter the number in the Swan station.
  • Hugo's winning lottery ticket number.
  • There were 48 survivors in the fuselage section
  • The monk telling Desmond they have only 108 bottles of wine.
  • Roman Numbers on a diagram, one of them is 108.
This number is part of a so-called Valenzetti Equation which can predict the exact time when the world will end. It is actually the product of a research by Enzo Valenzetti, a math prodigy but a recluse.

(Enzo Valenzetti is a fictitious character in the LOST World)


My Predictions for LOST





Walt...

Walt returned in the final episode, looking older than the Walt we used to see. Michael wasn't there though. Walt instructed Locke in this final episode to wake up because "he has work to do...."

What I believe here, is that the entire island is situated in a time zone where everything seems to be moving slower than the outside world. So when, Ben let Michael and Walt go, few years may have already passed but on the island it was just a couple of months.

Walts Mission....

This is what I believe, Walt might have come back to the Island to instruct Locke to accomplish a task which could have been ruined by Ben. Ben seemed like a man who's bent on accomplishing something noble, probably to save the world as most part of the series have told us but more likely he's a man with a hidden agenda bent on achieving something totally different for his self-interest which might explain why Jacob said "Help me..." to John Locke.


John Locke...


John Locke would be able to stop Ben from his hidden motives and bring back order to the entire island. John Locke was special as Ben mentioned before and that was why Ben trusted John to help him finish his work. So when Jacob said "Help me..." , and later Ben shot him. I believe that Ben became afraid that his "noble" plans might not work out.

My thoughts on the island.

I believe that Jacob is the central figure controlling the island. But things got out of hand when Ben interfered. I think that Jacob was a man but very special/gifted person. The island chose him so that the Island could perhaps communicate with any inhabitants who came to the island. He must have died somehow, probably due to natural causes or Ben. So Jacob's consciousness fused with the island.

The island seems to have some rather strange electromagnetic properties which could have resulted in the dreams, hallucinations, the whispers, John Locke's ability to walk again, Sun conceiving, the death of all mothers who had previously given birth and Desmond's premonitions. This strange occurrences could have only materialized because Jacob communicated with them. I believe that Desmond should have died at the Swan station which was completely obliterated. Jacob saved him and he was given the gift of seeing the future.



Desmond's ability might be useful in changing some of the things that has previously happen before for example Charlie's death. He was suppose to be dead 3 times but he died only during the"fourth" time. He might also play a role in changing the fate of all the survivors for example, avoiding the crash. But this theory only works if the survivors are trapped on the island and the island somehow created a time loop until things get corrected.


In a way this sort of agrees with the "order of the universe" or "the universe has a way of balancing things" as mentioned in the show but it also contradicts that statement because if Charlie doesn't die yet he will sooner or later. Charlie later died in the Looking Glass station in the final episode.

Something Possible...

The flash forward scenes in LOST could have been a prediction of what will happen but may not necessarily happen.

When Naomi said that all the people on Flight Oceanic 815 died, she could have been lying and this should prove Ben statement right. This could be the most logical explanation why the survivors are still there on the island unless they are all trapped in a parallel world created by the island itself which is highly unlikely.



It might be possible that the rescuers might caused even more imbalance to the island's function and the world. Ben could have been right in this and that was why Locke shot Naomi before threatening Jack. Since the island chose them to survive for a reason, they should not have gone back. And if they died on the island, they died also for a reason. Jacob could have a role in this also, that is why he might have probably chosen some of them to do something through dreams, vision

Nobody move! I've dropped me brain...

Nobody move! I've dropped me brain...

Jack Sparrow



See dat dude wielding his pirate sword up there. He's Jack Sparrow. I love his character and Johnny Depp sure acted brilliantly. All his facial expression, subtle nuances, tone of voice and body language was splendidly executed and I really hope he will be winning an award for his effort despite the show being too pop-ish. Awards have a funny habit of eluding blockbusters..

The nearly 3 hours sitting on those cushioned seats was worth da wait and thankfully I was prepared for the potential bladder rupture disaster. So those who want to watch this show uninterrupted, pls dun forget to clear ur bladder!!

Gosh AJ, I shud have taken ur tickets but it was kinda bad timing for me. I could have saved RM11 at KLCC.

This show is 2 thumbs up for me.

Rating: A

WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD.







This part constitutes my favourite lines of the movie. Seriously when Pirates came out, I had no idea that it would be a Disney production. But I guess its all in the script, which is great. I could imagine myself rehearsing or saying the lines. Very British...ahem

Of course, you've seen the first one.
Jack Sparrow: Nobody move! I've dropped me brain.

Jack Sparrow: Did no one come to save me just because they missed me?



When there were in the Davy Jones Locker...
Jack Sparrow: Why should I sail with any of you? Four of you have tried to kill me in the past... one of you succeeded.
Jack Sparrow: Oh, she's not told you. You'll have loads to talk about while you're here. As for you...
Jack Sparrow: Don't need you [to Ragetti]
Jack Sparrow: Gibbs, you can come, Marty, Cotton... Cotton's parrot, I'm a little iffy... At least I'll have someone to talk to... Who are you?



With The chinese pirate
Tai Huang: Tai Huang. These are my men.
Jack Sparrow: Where does your allegiance lie?
Tai Huang: With the highest bidder.
Jack Sparrow: I have a ship.
Tai Huang. That makes you the highest bidder.

Ragetti
Ragetti: These aren't pieces of eight, they're pieces of junk!
Ragetti: Calypso, I release you from your human form.
(Man i didn know he had a crush on her....




Elizabeth when she became the Pirate Queen
Elizabeth Swann: You all listen to me! LISTEN! The other ships will still be looking to us, the Black Pearl to lead, and what will they see? Frightened bilgerats aboard a derelict ship? No, they will see free men and freedom! And the enemy will see the flash of our canons and they will hear the ringing of our swords and they will know what we can do! With the sweat of our brow and the strength of our backs and the courage in our hearts! Gentlemen, Hoist the Colours...


Johnny Depp: So where's mum?
Father: (lifts up mother's head)
Johnny Depp: Ohhh, She looks great...


Johnny Depp:[reading off a map] "Up is down"? Well, that's just maddeningly unhelpful.

Pintel: So change the name.
Gibbs: To what? To "nine pieces of whatever we happen to have in our pockets at the time"? Oh, yes. That sounds very piratey.
Lol dis is funny



Elizabeth Swann: Jack, it would never have worked out between us.
Jack Sparrow: Keep telling yourself that, darling.
(Hahaha, dis is the momentary romantic sparkle between them...)


For all the detractors and naysayers of this show, shush and leave!!!

******CONVOCATION******

The Selangor Ballroom

On a usual day like today, I would be soundly asleep at 6am. But today I had to drag my sorry ass out of the bed to go for convocation. Was feeling so darn lazy and tired after everything when I knew that I can't drag myself back to bed after convocation, OK sorry for the early whining.


Ahhh...Jamm to da Ballroom

Our convocation held at Sheraton Subang. IMU seems to have all its convocation ceremony in Sheraton Subang. It was quite an elaborate affair to acknowledge the achievements of all our students who would be future doctors, nurses etc..

Seriously there was a time when I didn't want to come for this because the road to become a doctor is only halfway, so when I heard convocation... I was like wat??? I only thought of it almost towards the very last moment. We ain't doctors yet, so why a convocation ceremony? But If I were to follow my good ol' reasoning i wouldn't have known the astounding number of people from our batch making it into the dean's list, the Gold medalist, meet back old pals, scrambled to take pics and of course take our Graduation Photo.

Everyone was dressed for the occasion. Somehow, even when this is not da real thing yet, the atmosphere had that certain kind of importance, like a step towards greater things.

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

Neil Armstrong
There really isn't a point to narrate the chronology of events in our convocation. The most jaded part of the entire illustrious affair was when the big shot who "was bestowed the power to start the ceremony" started giving his speech, which I feel sort of mar things a bit.

Now for pics, too many to load to slide. So juz put some here for viewing pleasure.

The BMedSc gang plus Diva





Diva n her guyfriends

Ok the gist of it, our batch M204, a legendary batch, as Jay had put it had the most number of students in the Dean's List.
It totally demolished all previous records of students who made it previously in other batches. We had an astounding 74 people in the Dean's List.
Khoo Hau Chun
was the superstar for the day, our beloved Gold Medalist.

Khoo Hau Chun.... Notice the gold medal.soo small man

Indeed I believed our batch is one of the greatest batch around, gifted, talented, brilliant, active and different.

For More Pics, click Read More...











From L: Wen Jing, Mei Fong, Me

I believe that many great things will come from the people who came from M204.
I sure hoped William and the peeps in da camera gang managed to upload tons and tons of pics for all to see.

The Final 3

Now for my predictions, which seems to have some uncanny similarities with Simon's, since Sanjaya got booted.


First



Second


Third (would be booted out tomorrow.)

Today's performance by Melinda simply shows that she is such a versatile singer, giving her best, IMO in all her 3 performances. Truly I've never seen any other idol coming close to her consistent performance all throughout the show.

I say Jordin has improved aaaa.... lot, and at the age of 17, I say she has great talent.

Blake is not as vocally secure as the rest, of course he's beatbox style is the first of its kind throughout the talent show. I would say he did fine in today's performance. 1st song was bleaaargh... second song better but I can't decide whether the third or second is better. I say its a tie . But he's certainly not my fav...

Though, this is what I predict, I would prefer these results:

Winner: Jordin
Runner-up: Melinda
Third: Blake

Ahem.... simply bcoz, Melinda is already da best!! Why don't we just give Jordin a chance to win it all?? When she can use all the prize winnings to boost her image and jump start her career.
