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.

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.

Lunch at Annalakshmi




Since research life have been treating us so well, we decided that we should go somewhere for a good makan. Mei Shiang has been telling us about Annalakshmi for a long time, that it serves great Indian food and you pay as you like! So when I heard "pay as you like...", I was like cool so can I pay 1 cent for a buffet meal. Naaa..... I'm not dat kiam siap and you pay at least RM1 for any meal regardless of how much you take.

Annalakshmi actually means "The Goddess of Meals", and there really is a magnificent statue of the goddess inside. Surrounding the interior are interesting Indian crafts and paintings which adds even more to the aesthetics. If you were to look at the whole restaurant inside, it does exude a higher class feeling. It operates based on the concept, "Eat as you want, pay as you wish."

Ok, what could be more important than the food right despite the already pleasing interior decorations. The food here is great. I recommend every single person who has come across this post to try the food!! According to one of the volunteers, they serve Southern Indian food, Northern Indian food, blah blah....blah. Believe me, I only came here for the food and I wasn't bothered about their background. But really, after searching on the Internet, there really is a difference. But I won't bore you with a mini lecture on what's the difference between Northern and Southern Indian cuisine.

Annalakshmi offers fine, Indian vegetarian cuisine. They have Chappati, Poori, Tosai, Vada, Sambhar, rice, dahl, curry coconut oil. Oh yaa, the vada should go with some orange powder. I've no idea what izit call and some sauce. The sambhar, which is some donut thingy. Even the rice they have two different variety, The also have a variety of vege, which is kinda obvious. Again, I dunno wat izit called. They also have fried eggplant if I'm not mistaken. They have yogurt which you can take it as it is or add onto another dish. And the yogurt is good. For beverages, there have quite a variety but I only tried the mango lassi. The desert for the day was red bean soup with sago. But they said, they also serve purple rice as desert. I forgot wats the name. The owner also said the buffet sometimes varies from day to day.

At the end of the day, we left with a very filled stomach thanks to all the delectable choices. We payed RM10 each. Most of it goes to charity after paying all the overhead. And all the workers are volunteers. Even some of them are medical students. Ok I din confirm dis but Mei Siang said so. Oh yes...I haven't mentioned where izit yet.. It's in MidValley, very close to Chillis. SO PEOPLE GO THERE!!!

Make sure its between 11.30-3.00 and 6.30-11.00pm
