Life's Sick Lil' Games...

How do I start?

I start by thanking John Logie Baird (is it correct?) for inventing the TV...I remember his name because it rhymes with Yogi Bear...Lol! Ahhh, remember the days of memorizing the names of inventors during our primary school years? If i'm not mistaken, we were forced to memorize these peoples' names when we were in Standards 5 and/or 6...

Well, whateverlah (lol, never used 'lah' on my blog before)...I used to think that the 90's provided us with great sitcoms and TV shows...then, at the start of the new millennium, the days of reality TV began...it was great when it started, but it became a cultural phenomenon, that now...MTV has cropped its "Music Television" phrase from its logo...yeah, buhbye to music vids, hello 24/7 reality shows!!! TV just isn't as good as it used to be...most of my faves ended their storylines after tons of seasons, then came my withdrawal symptoms...uhhhh, where am I getting at?

I was supposed to talk about my CURRENT fave TV shows...epic fail! Well, here goes:

The current "it" show would be Glee...I love the show so much because it's a breath of fresh air. So ok, it's basically your cliched 'Breakfast Club' meets High School Musical (hate it!!!)...BUT, it feels real and genuine. The characters are lovable...heck i even love the villain!!! The writing's good, the song mash-ups are great, the dancing is ok, they all have musical backgrounds (heck, Lea and Jenna both have performed on Broadway!!!), etc...need I say more? It's the shit, babes! Lol...

Well, it's my current fave...but i'm scared that it'll just fall...just like Heroes, Lost, Desperate Housewives, etc...so, i'm just hoping that it will last for a very very long time...but how long can the premise last, eh? They could only last till the writers decide when the kids would graduate from high school, right?

For now, i'll be joining the masses in enjoying all the music they're serving us on a weekly basis...can't wait for their return after the hiatus!

PS: Just so you know, I do not think their version of "Don't Stop Believing" trumps Journey's version...no one beats Journey or Steve Perry!!! Well, maybe Arnel Pineda replaced Steve, but...nobody beats Journey...hahahaha! Just can't believe people think the Glee version of this song is superior...what blasphemy!!!

Ahhhh, the crap I write during the holidays...gotta love it!

Well, seeing that the place I work for is a production company, it would be making a drama catered for TV.

Now I, for certain, do not watch our local TV shows coz, they suck (sorry)! Sometimes or rather most of the time, the actors can't act for nuts....always the same bloody expression on their not-really-made-for-TV-faces (sorry!)...

However, at least I would be watching how and what the bosses here are doing to produce something. That's what i'll learn from this job I have!

So far, i've made the layout of proposed cast and wardrobe stylings for the characters. Though, I wish I could stay longer JUST to see the show in the process of shooting and such, as this is just the early stage of production.

But, you know something? I'd rather go to college! Hehe...

I guess if the whole plan of joining the foreign service don't work out, I will probably join the media circuit, PR, writer, or something of that sort...it's also kinda nice to be a scriptwriter...in Hollywood, not here!

Honestly, there are a few movies that could offer some sort of competition with the foreign flicks...however, they're like a needle in a hay stack. Even most commercials suck in the idea bank! This one local ad for a beauty product gave out the message that a guy won't even look at a girl when she's dark-skinned, but wow...after she uses the product, she gets fairer-looking, and wham! The frickin idiot-guy asks her out? WTF?

BLATANT SEXISM AND PREJUDICE AGAINST DARK-SKINNED WOMEN, ASSHOLES!!!

These are the stupid ads they show on Malaysian TV! That ad had the women scorned was was pulled-out as soon as it aired (yeah, only after a lot complaints and write-ups in the papers!)...but God forbid, kissing scenes! The censor board must cut 'em out!

I want better Malaysian shows, movies, actors, music, commercials, literature...just be original, people!!! IMO, our counterparts, Indonesia and the Philippines, though economically not so OK like ours, they fare better in entertainment...and don't even get me started on Japan and South Korea...I mean, wow! They have their own everything, man!

We should all strive to do better for ourselves here, coz we sure as hell can do it if we really want!!! The problem is, there are no Tarantinos, Scorceses, Coppolas, etc here in Malaysia! And if there were peeps like them, who knows how far we'd go!

Meh, maybe i'm being too harsh...but then again, maybe not!

What's up, you ask?

Sometimes I don't even know how the hell i'd answer that question. Life can get so hectic, busy, great atone particular moment, and then...it'll be one stagnant routine of nothingness! That's what's happening now!

My work has taken a rest, as the key programmer is arranging vids and shit like that. Meanwhile, i'd have to wait for the finished results to go on with my work...and so, I wait!

My social life is still blah...still single and available, still idealizing that i'd meet a hot TV character (Peter, Denny, Mohinder, Isaac...), and we'll have a great life together! :'(

Arrrgh, I think I have bipolar disorder!!! One minute, i'm on top of the world, and the next...i'm pissed at the world for letting me be trapped in dull loneliness!

I can't go out and do something, as I need something to do things, right? You can't be broke, alone and expect to have fun here and there, go on shopping sprees, hangout with friends...

Guess, i'll have to wait for something good to come!

Arrrggghhh!!!!!!!!

What's with me, that I can fall for half the cast of Heroes, Denny from Grey's Anatomy (RIP...I don't want you to die next week, but you sure will! Noooooooooo.........poor Izzie!) and a whole bunch of other fictional characters on TV and movies, but I can't feel anything for guys in real life?

TV has ruined men for me!

Why and how can I be fooled into thinking that men are as nice, and kind, and hot as they are in the 'idiot box'?

Man, my standards are so way up there! But fuck it, I love TV!!!

Let any men challenge the charming Denny Duquette, and i'll be all yours!

Why can't I like the guys who like me? I wish I could, but I can't...I just don't like them!

It's unfair, I know...you think I like doing this? You can't force someone to love you, jackass!
