100 MOST UNFORGETTABLE MOVIE EVER(BEST)- FIRST 50

Since my holiday, I have become a movie freak. Well, there is nothing bad about this. At least, I can:

  1. Improve my American-English.
  2. Gain some weight.(People say that I am too slender,how flattering, but, I still think I am fat)
  3. Learn more celebrity names.(Heath Ledger, Maggie Gyllenhaal(Wow, did I spell it right), ...)
  4. Get encouragement from the movie.(I can become a superstar if I go to Hollywood(^^))
  5. Obtain more materials to write my blog(basically, crap more lah)
Okey, without wasting any time, let's go the 100 Most Unforgettable Movie(Best)- First 50.

Criteria:
  • Personal and Private view of myself (This list is not about marks)
  • Memorable impression(Unforgettable scenes)
  • Randomly chosen(Not about box-office or gross)
  • Arguable of its credibility( Not everyone likes the same movie)

The List is shown below:
  1. Gone With The Wind(Oh well, as expected, classical movie just rocks)
  2. 我的野蛮女友 also "My Sassy Girl" (My All-time favourite, she is just everything)
  3. The Matrix 1(Difficult to understand at the beginning, but, captures the audience later)
  4. Jumanji (Oh, my childhood buddy, a game that has to be finished)
  5. Forrest Gump( Very touching, best of the best)
  6. 大话西游:盘丝洞 (The Chinese Classical, Stephen Chow, Funny)
  7. Spiderman 1(The first sometimes, is the best)
  8. Wanted (Surprise, this is a 2008 movie, but, it really takes breath away)
  9. My Best Friend's Wedding(Oh please, Made of Honour is really no match to this, who can beat Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz?)
  10. A.I-Artificial Intelligence (Little modern-Pinocchio wanted to become a real boy)
  11. Star Wars (Omg, the classical of all time.P.S- this is the old movie, not the new one)
  12. Jurassic Park 1 (Dinosaur chasing is never been more fun)
  13. Bicentennial Man (Another touching A.I that stole my heart with its piano duet)
  14. Jaws (My main reason for afraid to go into the water)
  15. The Sphere (This movie is not that famous, but, it was really a thriller)
  16. 金枝玉叶 also "He's a Woman She's a Man " (by Anita Yuan and Leslie Cheung, it was so funny until I still remember now, I was a kid when I watched it)
  17. The Sixth Sense( A ghost movie that the little boy stole the show)
  18. 大话西游:盘丝洞 (The Chinese Classical, Stephen Chow, Funny)
  19. Titanic (Must be on the list, well, they say" you jump, I jump", so, it must be in.)
  20. 难兄难弟 (By Tony Leung, along with Carina Lau as his mother, haha)
  21. 重庆森林(really like Fei Wong's performance, really, really unforgettable)
  22. 东邪西毒( Maggie Cheung was totally different back to those days, she was super-funny)
  23. 梁山伯与祝英台(the butterflies lover, so heart-breaking)
  24. 少林足球(A movie that leads to the trend of kungfu)
  25. 新龙门客栈(Again, Maggie Cheung was super-sassy in her role)

Right now, I am already half-way through in first 50, a quarter in 100. As you can see, in my list, the newest movie is WANTED, the movie was just unforgettable. The oldest is GONE WITH THE WIND, the classical version of my sassy girl. For Chinese movie, I was so disappointed with the new movies. None of them were truly memorable, they all are too commercialized. In my opinion, the peak of the Hong Kong movie was during the 1980-2000.

Extravagant Nuffnang Gift Idea(^^) - Awesomely cool.

I really like the idea of giving a gift to a special person and nuffnang gift idea contest has given me a chance to do so without troubling myself. This is all because of www.RealMart.com.my, an online-shopping mall that provides shoppers all sort of conveniences, like I don't have to drive all the way to the shopping to look for the perfect gift.(Petrol is very expensive nowadays(^-^)). Furthermore, there are so many products, that I think I will have no problem finding a good gift at all.

Nuffnang means "cool" in Jafaikan. Yup, I am giving a nuffnang gift a.k.a a cool gift to a fellow nuffnanger. It is very difficult for me because I have to decide who to give to, what gift, and why I give this gift.

Before I reveal everything, haha, let's me show you what were the gifts that I was planning to give that lucky person.

At first, I was planning to give the lucky nuffnanger this magnificent vacuum cleaner. Well, the vacuum cleaner is for her to "suck" tightly her future husband. Haha, but, after second thought, hmm, I think she most probably don't need it and this sounded a bit harsh.





Porcelain Aromatherapy Night Light


Coming up next, it was an exquisite porcelain aromatherapy. Personally, I really like this gift myself. I think she will love it too. I want to give this gift because this can really "zen" her soul and spirit. However, when I check this item's details, it was currently sold out. Too bad!!!(><). I guess I have to make another choice.


Finally, I have chosen something very nice, suitable,common, yet, very in need. Waaala........



SOEHNLE Volga Body Balane Bathroom Scale


Surprise!!!!!!
Now, officially, I am going to present this gift to the fellow nuffnanger,

seen

Actually, I have noticed that seen is very busy recently doing her work. She hardly has any time to update her blog. I feel guilty because I recommended her to start her own blog. This is why I am going to give her a scale or a balance - to balance up her miserable, busy, and tired life , by the way, don't forget to balance her weight.(^^)

This has been a very pleasant experience to me because choosing gifts online is definitely interesting. Besides, it is also very convenient.

Finally, I hope that seen will really like my gift to her.

P.S: Sorry, guys!!! Actually, I wanted to spread the gifts to all the blogger's friends that I have known and linked. So, if I have another chance, I will definitely dedicate the gifts to you all.(^^)

It is time to be serious! University Admission(> <)


Personally, I rarely care about serious social matters. As you can see from my previous posts, I am a free-spirited person who just loves "sugar, spice, and everything nice, plus, a little bit of chemical x".(adapted Power puff Girls) Honestly, that is me which I still don't know why I had chosen to take an engineering course. Oh well, maybe, in my next entry, I will explain.

Okey, back to the serious matter that I am going to discuss today. With the unlimited amount of time in hand, I find time to really think about the recent issues. Today, I read about an article in the newspaper(Sin Chew Daily, 2008) about a girl who received her STPM(Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia a.k.a Malaysian Higher School Certificate)(Wikipedia, 2008)results. Well, she scored straight A for her tests, which is about 5 A. Congrats to her! However, with that kind of good results, she was not given the first choice of her application, which was medicine in a local university. She was absolutely disappointed. According to the article, she said that she studied very hard in order to gain a place in medicine, if studying hard is no guarantee to secure a place in local university, then, what is the point of studying hard. I agreed with what she said. This is mainly because not only she was a straight A student, she was even awarded as one of the top scorers in the country. That award should have act like a plus point to her. At the end, she decided to go to Singapore to further her studies. She even added that the government is letting the professional people to other countries. This is absolutely the main reason why our country lacks of talented people in certain fields. In the article, there is also a mention the regulation for applying the admission. 90 percents for the results and 10 percents for extra-curriculum. From the point system, it is very obvious that the results is the main contributor to determine whether the admission is successful or not. By blaming on the shortfall of extra-curriculum, it is not logical at all due to the fact that extra-curriculum only play a very minor role in the application. Based on the point system, it shows that results will be prioritized. (Sin Chew Daily, 2008)

Apart from that, I also went back to my secondary school to have a visit. It was shock to me because currently, there are more and more students giving up to continue Form 6. I could understand the reason because I also decided to continue my studies in elsewhere. The top 3 reason for me and most students not choosing Form 6.

  1. It is a waste of time, the duration of Form 6 is about 2 years.
  2. It is not safe for students who is planning to take medicine because matriculation students have privilege in choosing course.
  3. The syllabus is just too hard.

Well, these are the reasons that I can come up with. If you have any more, feel free to add on.

Moreover, I also feel that Form 6 students are in weaker spots compared to matriculation students. Not only matric students can save a year in their course, they even have privilege in obtaining a spot in local universities. Well, with that kind of disadvantages, I think Form 6 is going to "bankrupt" soon.

In my thought, being a Form 6 student is not easy, even if you score straight A, there is not secure, especially for medic students. Oh well, this is my personal thought.

Agree or Disagree - It is opened for argument.
