when God created woman

he probably had 葛蘭 in mind.



And when the living legend looks back in her prime years, she'll be thinking, "I haven't made one move wrong".

Happy Birthday to Bob.



Knockin' On Heaven's Door is my KTV fave.

Hard Bargain

I don't wish to falter yet.
Some things may not be meant for me.
I can only hope I will become stronger.
And make a difference on my own someday.

I will not be re-defined.
I will keep telling stories.

another 5 stars

During a day sometime last year the music from my headphones got too loud.

Taxi Driver: !
TP: ?
Taxi Driver: Isn't that 天涯歌女？
TP: Oh yes.
Taxi Driver: Damn how old are you?
TP: 22.
Taxi Driver: Unbelieveable.
TP: I love it.

We got along straight away and went on about 林黛，周旋，葛蘭，李香蘭，白光 and 白虹，and something good about Gold 90 FM on certain weekend afternoons.



To me,the movie made in 1937 is a masterclass of film-making in so many ways. Every dialogue,every song,every look is integral to the plot,social and human relationships.


And okay, now i know YouTube has EVERYTHING.
And Bras Basah Complex has lots of gems.

5-stars

Someone must have cried and loved the movie like I did and always will.

A KTV is a place where people can sing the other famous singers' songs and display their singing talent.Nowadays no matter the young or old, take the KTV as a place of entertainment where you can display and express your talent in singing.Many singers started their careers singing at the KTV.Who knows, someday you may be singing in the KTV and maybe some music producer may just spot your talent for singing.


Did I write these for the teacher in mind?
Well if life was like that.

Topic of the day: Common Test

I hate common tests! Especially the CAs I have just done. I have already failed my English and Literature test paper and both of them just need 1 mark to pass. Every year, we would have 4 common tests every term. I would have to study,study and study to pass my tests. Oh why should there be common tests,exams and others. Common Tests are usually a warm-up before you do your exams. I don't like to do common tests as I would have to study and study and study.



The next day i wrote something on gummy bears.

I'm glad I did some cleaning after all.It helps you find yourself sometimes.
