Laughing 哥 / Laughing Sir

Mwuhahahaa =P
Just finished watching TVB's Emergency Unit a.k.a 學警狙擊.
That also includes the "special extended ending" with Laughing 哥!! Or should I say Laughing Sir!! =P
That 1 min extra was just perfect. It wouldn't have work out if he would 'come back' to life, so this kind of 'special ending' to please the fans is good enough. And believe me, he really got a lot of fans.

I don't think anyone expected that this would turn out to be this big, Laughing 哥's character is like the most important character everyone cares about. It is understandable though, a character like this does creates a lot of sympathy. It's also something I haven't seen before actually to be honest.
We've seen the mole/undercover story like a thousand times, but never in this perspective. To actually 'find out' that he's mole instead of already knowing it from the beginning...Nice find!

Another thing that adds up to this sympathy for this character is his background story, I mean, his former girlfriend Wendy never get to know his true goals! How sad is that.
And ofcourse we all know what he did, the ultimate sacrifice for Justice.

I was hoping, and with me a lot of others too, that includes my mom and all those other tvb-watchers, that Laughing 哥 will get at least some kind of 'Tribute' in the last chapter. Where it would be revealed to everyone what he did. To get a memorial sort of thing you know, with all the policemen saluting him. To get the recognition of what he did for 9 years long...but nothing...
I was dissapointed. Come on!! Most probably the scriptwriters didn't thought he would become this popular.

But like Michael Tse as Laughing said in the ending:
"It doesn't matter whether Laughing is dead or alive, as long as everyone is remembering him!
LAUGHING SIR!"



The special extended ending of Laughing
The Opening Song (which actually kind of reminds of the older Young'NDangerous Songs =P)
Interview with '孝哥' & 'Laughing哥' Funny check it out too =P


Next post will be a 'review' of this HK Series, as well as another review of a JPN Film!!
So stay tuned!! If anyone is reading...Mwuhahahaa (laughing hahaha)

What it's already 5AM? ...This DayLightSavingTime is tricking me...it's supposed to be 4AM!!

The Midday Waker In The Dusty Room

Waking up at Midday
In a Dusty Room
But not Today

Livin' we should
Not like we can do anything else

Outside raining
On a Monday Noon in March

Writin' I want
Not like I can do anything else

Inside thinking
What this day means in a Life

Making the Earth turns
In a Dusty World
But not for You

So much Going On
You say Bring It On
Before it all Goes Wrong


Clean up the mess before we go
Unleash the stress before we blow...
...Out of our Minds

Dreaming goes on and on and on

So much Going On
You say Bring It On
Before it all Goes Wrong

Waking up Again
And I don't know where I am
It's 12 AM...

Moku-Yobi no Post Desu

The Thursday Post...a.k.a lost creativity to come up with a catchy title...

Note:Due to this situation with my PC, I can't write as much as I want to...

About Life.
Spring time!! 2 days left untill it's officially Spring (21 March).
Winter is my favourite season, but Spring is cool too! Smell the smell, breathe the wind, feel the sun.
For all the depressive people, spring should make you feel good!

About Uni.
Next 2 weeks will be exams-weeks. It's a long long time since I've did any exams...
I guess it's time to continue school again. To actually get some points.
It's not like I can still save this schoolyear but if I can at least get 30 points I'll be content. 30 points is still not enough to do 2nd years courses next year but it's the most I can do for now...

Sigh...It's really troublesome actually...

About Travel.
Bought Tickets already!!

About Sport.
Ajax got eliminated...
I'm not in the mood to write about it...

My Basketball Diaries: After not having played for a long long time, I started again this year (January). Still need time to get back in the flow again. Defense is okay, haven't put any attention on offense yet. Gotta sleep early and wake early...

About Music.
Ongaku wa watashi no life desu!!
Definately feeling it.

JPNMusic: It just keeps amaze me how Japanese people always can come up with some Catchy songs that you'll keep on listening again and again. Stereopony's Hitohira no Hanabira is the song I've listened the most these few days. It's C.A.T.C.H.Y. I knew about this new band because YUI wrote a song for them. Many people may probably know them through anime's, but I haven't watched anime series for a while now. They did the Bleach ending and Gundam 00 opening, but I don't watch Bleach and I stopped with 00 since it was so bad.

About the song itself: The guitar-riffs are so AKFG-style!! Check out AKFG's Kimi to Iu Hana, the opening riff sounds abit the same.
I think Stereopony (which name kinda reminds me of Stereophonics =P) did listen to a lot of other bands...
Well that sounds obvious actually...I mean which musician don't? But yeah, Hitohira no Hanabira does feel like a song which is a mix of a lot of other songs.
About the PV: Ah the PV is cool.

ENGMusic: Hmm not much lately I guess. Haven't bought Albums for a long time, I think I should buy new ones again. Time for some new music, I've been listening to my old albums too much.
Thinking of buying:
-The Killers (Their first 2 albums, their new album is cool, but a bit over the top...)
-The Strokes (Listened to them long time ago)
-Five O'Clock Heroes (1st Album...although their new album got that track with Agynnes Deynes...)
-Starsailor (Actually only know 2 songs,But did listened to their whole album once in MediaMarkt =P)
-Kaiser Chiefs (They got freaking good singles, but other tracks on their albums often don't appeal me that much...)
-The Kooks (maybe for the spring time...=P)

Oh maybe some classic albums too! You know those you have to have.

I actually just name a few randomly, I mean there is so much good music out there, but you can't buy them all. I notice I always buy albums when my PC is broken, since I can't listen to the songs online.

By the way: OASIS's video of The Shock Of The Lightning is "copied" by U2's Get On Your Boots!!
I'm sure U2 themselves are not responsible, but rather the makers of the video. But how can they do it. I mean it's just literally copied off Oasis' Video. Ofcourse U2 is a great band, although I don't listen to them, but how can they do this? I mean the makers should have know Oasis'video...

About News.
Another shooting at school?! This time in Germany.
Busdrivers being treatened?

Will write about it later.


Bye!!

I Think, Therefore I Am

"I think, therfore I am"

-René Descartes-





---------------------

Well, who doesn't like personality tests? I know I do, I mean they're good for a laugh.
Cause I was laughing out loud when I did these the other day.




You Are Emotional



You are dependable, popular, and observant.
Deep and thoughtful, you are prone to moodiness.
In fact, your emotions tend to influence everything you do.

You are unique, creative, and expressive.
You don't mind waving your freak flag every once and a while.

And lucky for you, most people find your weird ways charming!



Agreed to a certain extent... =P
Although I have my doubts about the "charming part"...

----------------------------------------------------

Next one...ooh I like this one: Are you boring...?




You Are 44% Interesting



Truth be told, you're not the most interesting person in the world.
You don't put much effort into expanding your horizons. You're content to stay in your little comfort zone.

You tend to get stuck in a rut, and you often bore people who spend time with you.
You are predictable and somewhat narcissistic. You're too focused on yourself to see how boring you can be.

You have the potential to be an incredibly fascinating person. You just have to be a little more proactive.

Shake things up. Try something new. Take a risk. The worst that can happen is that you'll have an amazing story to tell!



"...you often bore people who spend time with you"
So...hmm...well nice to know that...I mean...I guess it's true, wuhahahaaha.

----------------------------

Next:




The True You Values Harmony



You want your girlfriend or boyfriend to be more relaxed, calm, and composed.

With respect to money, you spend as little as possible.

You think good luck doesn't exist - reality is built on practicalities.

The hidden side of your personality tends to be methodical in your ways - with trouble adapting to the rules of society.

You are tend to think about others' feelings a lot, perhaps because you are so eager to be liked.

When it comes to finding a romantic partner, you don't have any particular type in mind, but you are inclined to look for someone who will say yes when you ask him / her out.




Hmmm, I don't know about this one. This one is kinda off...
I guess these 2 are kinda right:
"The hidden side of your personality tends to be methodical in your ways - with trouble adapting to the rules of society.
You are tend to think about others' feelings a lot, perhaps because you are so eager to be liked"
While the others just aren't right.
Hmm...bad test this one.

------------------------------------------------

I did some "Age Test" too =P.



You've Experienced 24% of Life



You have the life experience of someone in their early 20s.
You've seen some of what life has to offer - but you have a long way to go.
Over time, you'll do enough and see enough to gain some wisdom.
But for now, try to learn from people who've lived a little more than you have!



Hey, nice. =D I am 21 so...

-----------------------------------------------------

Last one... this is troublesome to post with html and all that...=S




You Act Like You Are 28 Years Old



You are a twenty-something at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life.
You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up.
The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them.




I act like a 28-year old...
I don't know if that's a good thing or not...


Well, Funny isn't it?
=P

By the way, In case you're wondering what the title has to do with the tests, well not much. The famous line by Descartes "I Think, Therefore I Am" is not about the question who you are, but more so, IF you are. If you exist.
Kinda philosophical...read about it if you are interested...

One More Time, One More Chance

About Me. Whatever
About You. Whatever

About Uni. I went today
Yes, been to school today, and most probably I'll be going for the next few days...eerhh I mean the next few remaining months of the season too. There's a limit in how much you can ditch school.
Seriously...I don't think anyone can imagine how much I've skipped.
But hey, it's never too late and besides I won't be the first one to have arrears.


About Sports. Good
LEONARDO!! Do I need to say more? Last Thursday we all knew that at one time Leonardo shall be brought in the game. Everyone just knew it. It was 0-1, and something had to be done. When there was a call for a substitute I just knew it was time for the 'secret weapon'. Most probably Sulejmani would be the one to go out I thought, since he hasn't been doing anything great since he came to Ajax. But to my suprise, Lindgren was the one to go. I guess Van Basten wanted to take risks, and put everything on the attack.
The first moment Leonardo got the ball the whole, and I mean the WHOLE crowd was screaming. Look Leonardo is not Ronaldinho, he's not a star. He got speed and movements. But that's about it. Still, everyone had hope in him to do something. Since he was the one who brought some action to the last few games of Ajax.
The excitement of the crowd didn't last long, cause when the game was about to end, they saw that there was a big chance that they weren't going home for another 30 minutes.
Untill...
the ball was on the foot of Leonardo on the left side, 4x Scisscor moves, passing 3 Italians, trying to pass the ball with the outside of his left foot (Or was he using the player to bounce back the ball?) passing through the other italian on his right, came free for the goal, swing his 'chocolate leg' (as he call it) and Boom! 1-1 at 88'minutes. I was screaming in my living room!!

Leonardo, I don't think he can play a whole match, he is the sort that should be sub in the last 20 minutes. I think we will see this a few more times in the Eufa Cup matches this season untill he leave Ajax next year for Panathinaikos.

Next match: Olympique Marseille.
History: Ajax never losed from them before...


About Music. 6 Strings to 4 Strings
Well I guess Bass is cool too huh? Dumm Dumm, Dummm Dum Dum Duuum. =P
By the way,
Listening to One more time, One more chance by Yamazaki Masayoshi

About Film. Makoto Shinkai
Makoto Shinkai, called the new Miyazak!? Well saw one of his works last Saturday, and the animation and art was just beautifull man. The scenerary was supremely wonderfull.
I watched Byousoko 5 Centimeters (5 Centimeters per second). They used the song I posted up here as ending. It was free to watch on Crunchyroll on the Global Shinkai day on 28 Feb along with 2 of his other animation films. Didn't had the time to watch them all though.

it's About the end of this post. Bye.
