Reflection of few days of holiday.

I’m actually forcing myself to write something at this hour. I have no interest to sleep now. Tomorrow, I begin my work as a teacher after few days of school break. And now I’m thinking to reflect back what I had done during my vacation.

It was a beautiful engagement day for my sister Hartini (on Friday, 10th June 2011). The past few days was hectic, we did family team work and collaboration  in organizing our house in Subok Village; to make it clean and possible for our visitors to come in. Technically it was smooth, and I am very happy how the event turn out to be =)

On the 9th June 2011, which was on Thursday; I participated at the GreenSTEPS initiatives seminars and workshop. 1st of all, the foods were great. 2nd the guest speaker Mr. Mark Cheng, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Avelife Foundation of Singapore delivered a very inspiring speech. And this was coming from a guy at an age of 23 (same as me).

The best part of that day is, during the afternoon workshop. I got a chance to vain myself in front of 39 participants. Well actually, I was just delivering some notes by my group and I, in which we have collaborated to produce some justifying answers during the discussions. What I really like about it, was during my presentation, everyone seems to enjoy it, and I heard a lot of  laugh amongst the participants and they clap their hands after I have end my speech. Well, Thank You. I really feel honored. I mean, let me do it again! :P As you can see from the photo above, all the five fine ladies are laughing and seems to enjoy it.

I also spend my time with my best bud, HD. As usual, the men conversation, dinner and movies. The 1st movie was not my kind of taste. Malay movies are hardly appreciated by my brain, no offense, but I do have some Malay movies which are good!

I watched Super 8, and I find it awesome. I’m a fan of JJ Abrams for his work on Star Trek  (2009, which helps Chris Pine career to blossom) and the TV series Fringe. I also watched X-men: First Class and The Green Lantern. For both, it is OK. I mean its good, but not that great like Star Trek :P

Smurf

Speaking of movies, I can’t wait to watch The Smurf Movie! The smurfs are so cute and Neil Patrick Harris from How I Met Your Mother TV Series is in it! so it gotta be awesome!

I also spend my holiday by doing some mechanics shopping – spare parts for my brother.. kinda good to learn few things about cars at Sing Hiap Hin Keng Hwa Auto Co. , Gadong.

Oh+Land+Album+Brunei

My Ohland – Ohland Album arrived (from Amazon.com) at my parents house during my vacation. And I really love it very much! And I want to meet you Ohland and the drummer Hans Hvidberg-Hansen.

And just now, I finished watching The Last Song. Two things I want to say:

1) Dear Miley Cyrus, Please I beg you, don’t ruin your life, like Ms. Lindsay Lohan or Ms. Britney Spears did. Your acting, your singing vocal and music are awesome! And I love you for who you are, even though a stranger love does not meant anything for you.. hehe (too exaggerate?)

2) Dear Nicholas Sparks,  I’m in love with your writing. And for my 24th birthday this 17th December; I wish to own all your novels including Wokini and the soon to be release”The Best of Me”.

I think that is all for a quick update :)

Happy 29th Birthday Chris Pine!

C+Pine

Happy Birthday Chris Pine! or Christopher Whitelaw “ChrisPine. His 29th Birthday so technically his certifide as 29 Years Old (Yes, I sense myself for being lame). As an actor, I descovered him when he was 24, on his Princess Diaries 2 film work. But in history he started working in the showbiz with his first TV appearances (in ER)  in 2003 probably around 22-23 at age. So his been in showbiz for around 6 years and still active. Congrats!

Fact: Not all was familiar with him before he inducted as Captain James  T. Kirk role in his 2009 Star Trek movie; and because of that, his name was very striking in the Internet world. I did come across several blogger last year, or was it early this year, or was it in 2007 which stated ’who is Chris Pine?’ before the release of Star Trek. I was like what? Yeah apparently his not like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise nor like Reese Witherspoon who just shine on spot on their first movie appearances. ShowBiz market is very hard these days.

But who care’s what people mind says. And I think we need to thank the cast director of Star Trek, because of him, he did give a high stages of Chris Pine and lift his name among recognisable actors out there. You better watch out, Chris Pine didn’t take granted after his remarkable act for Star Trek. His is still working hard. Last June 16 to July 26, Chris pine was on stage theater for his play in Farragut North at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles, starring along side an all star cast including Chris Noth, Olivia Thrilby, Isiah Whitlock, Jr., Mia Barron, Dan Bittmer and Justin Huen. The pay wasn’t big, so his an actor that care less about the money in some way. There was loud of cheers for him at the end of the show when he bow. In part of his scene, he strip down to his boxer briefs, which made the 2nd debut of the year for him to be seen in underwear only like the 1st in Star Trek.

I’m not a fan of his act when his only on underwear. I personally find it cheap to get attentions, so hopefully, he won’t be showing more underwear; I know its best for the market, but I’m being sexist here, its my personal preferences, I would love to see some of Amanda Bynes skin in the future.. but haha oh well. As I said, I’m being sexiest here. But seriously Chris Pine, on your underwear for the 2nd time in a year? Com’ on! Your serious on your work! Be more elegant. I love your work even without stripping.  In a sense way, you don’t need to be desperate to get attention or getting noticeable or trying to collect fans by stripping down. You are perfect the way you act with cloth on. That’s a compliment right? And please don’t be so positive to say, I’m stripping down for my fans. haha.

My last paragraph doesn’t make sense at all, coz this is showbiz, it would happen, and it did happen. Directors and producers will eventually ask him, to do more stripping just for the market. I know its good for the market and good for his career, but I just hope that, people would love him not because of his naked appearances but  be more as a whole package of professionalism of him as an actor. “Be viewers friendly, young children are also watching you Chris Pine, not just woman.” But if he enjoys stripping down  for people to view too,  then I have full support on him.. haha. LOL (Yes, I’m pleasure, for being contradicting myself)

Last but not least, and again, A very Happy Birthday to Chris Pine, May god bless you and be safe and healthy always. There’s still a wide and long distance yet to be cover by Chris Pine. And hopefully someday we will meet. And I can take your autograph and photo with you to show off to my friend here in Brunei.
