lovelight and other great tales.
holidays mean so much more when they're set on weekdays. there's no point in enjoying something if it's the norm, no? the last week has been phenomenal, to say the least; i've achieved nothing, wasted RM 15 on games that don't work, and i feel mighty proud about it. but when monday comes (sunday night, even) life resumes it's regularly scheduled programming and it's back to...well, it's not back to work but, yeah.
though this news may have come a little too late, my aunt was a victim of a snatch thief on sunday. her story was highlight in monday's edition of the star, as well as tuesday's edition of the sin chew jit poh. she had parked somewhere near petaling street, and as she was locking the door of her car, a rider came out of nowhere and grabbed her handbag. she held on, and was dragged for a few feet before letting go. she only scraped her elbows and knees, and received outpatient treatment at the university hospital after lodging her police report.
the album, in a whole, is a mix of electronica, hip hop, and...80s kitsch disco. at times. but it sounds a lot better than it looks on paper. trust me.

anyway, for those of you who've heard discouraging things about robbie's new album, rudebox, take no heed of them. rudebox is as much robbie as you can get...even more so. he's covered a song called lovelight in the album, originally performed by lewis taylor...which is a brilliant song that nobody's heard of.the album, in a whole, is a mix of electronica, hip hop, and...80s kitsch disco. at times. but it sounds a lot better than it looks on paper. trust me.

watch the prestige. you'll come away going "what the fuck?!", and feel utterly satisfied. i promise you. but don't hear it from me...here's a reliable source who'd say the same thing:
an anachronism of sorts. not everyone knows who ziggy stardust is. but seriously, if bowie's in it, it's not that bad at all. and he's brilliant as tesla. don't forget, we also have hugh jackman, christian bale, scarlet johanson (i can never spell her name correctly), michael caine...it's just begging for a viewing. and we get to see piper perabo all wet. awesome, no?
awesome, yes!

i usually don't mind saturdays, but this is the bookend (at the wrong end) of a great period of personal rehab for me. fuckin' boo.
