Gol Dan Gincu Dan Lain-Lain Lagi…

Another assignment down, and one final remaining design to go. Sorry for the lack of updates due to the rush against time in finishing up the remaining work…NOT. Hahahah, kononnya spent all the free time I had in coming up with plans for the next 3 months of holidays instead and also noticeable of me in becoming a couch potato lately.

Currently addicted to Real Kung-Fu and Life Made Simple TVB drama serials. Haven’t done so in a while and especially with so much time in my hands lately, thought it’d be a better way to kill time rather than having glued right in front of the monitor every single hour.

After months of speculation, I finally watched Gol dan Gincu (by coincidence) on Astro Ria and couldn’t agree more with what the others have to say about the teenybopper movie. Gol dan Gincu certainly stands out from the rest, with Sepet as an exception, as the movie breaks away from the norm with a very diversified plot to separate ones from the stereotypical view.

In comparison with Sepet, Gol dan Gincu might not be the public’s cup of tea in general, but it does attract a large variety of audiences; be them crazily-in-love teens, futsal fanatics, or hardcore fans of the beautiful lead actresses in the movie. While Sepet has got more sense of artistic expression in it, Gol dan Gincu solely emphasizes on the social life of teenagers in today’s world as well as teen issues that are not really highlighted in public.

The significance of Gol dan Gincu’s success are obvious in the vast sponsors and casts of the 2 hours film, and not forgetting the cinematography that really brings out the inner quality in today’s Malaysia films. Certain parts may be a wee bit waste of time and those cheesy conversations but then again, with the likes of Nur Fazura, Sharifah Amani, Sazzy Falak and my lovely Melissa Maureen, I don’t mind forking out another RM10 just to watch them even when no conversation’s involved :P

And since then, I have been all over the place in search of Gol dan Gincu’s soundtrack but it’s all OUT OF STOCK. Can’t be that bad right? Daym, and I can’t seem to find it online either. Does anybody have Ella’s Teruja so you can send it to me via e-mail or something? That’ll make do for the next week till I go on a rampage and ransack the record stores in KL. Wowee! The last malay song I fell in love with was Izinkan by VE. Man, that song somehow brought me into a state of emotional turbulence but that was back in 2003. Really missed those days..

Anyhoo, so basically that covers my spontaneous, bland review on Gol dan Gincu, but you have to watch it to see for yourself how much of emotional affectness this movie provides to almost anyone. I’ll give Gol dan Gincu a remarkable 8.3 out of 10!

Okay, done with the Gol dan Gincu craze, and now moving on to my boring life :) After having spent 6 months without driving a car, and another 18 months endangering other road pedestrians, I finally promoted from the ever despising Probational period. I can now roam freely in town without having to worry about being harassed for being a “P” driver and that police will no longer be able to use that as their sole advantage in pinning us down/asking for bribe. FUCK YOU ALL!

And so I missed John Digweed’s set at Zouk, Kuala Lumpur last weekend :( Those who went kept telling me that it was a blast. GAH, but I’ll be making a double trip down to Zouk for Ghetto and Godskitchen feat. Guy Ornadel next weekend. Anybody interested? Hehehehe, well hopefully shits don’t happen like what many of you might have already heard of; the Zouk Abuse case. It’s really saddening to know of such occurence, especially in such a renowned international club.

Hehehehe anyway, brother is back from Japan and he got me a Sony 1GB memory stick for only RM300! OMFG, what a drop dead crazy ass bargain! Didn’t take long to fill up 1/3 of the space with Aly & Fila’s live set mixes as well as Darude’s Salmiaki Sessions. Really good tracks featured in those sets and not forgetting Deep Dish’s Say Hello and Above & Beyond’s Air For Life. These tracks really touch the core and makes me feel like dancing almost anytime. And a great album I’d recommend to you is Godskitchen: Global Gathering 2005. Been listening to that album since 2 months ago. IT’s da bomb I tell you!

ARGH! Okay better be off now and get back to work. Hehehehe, am going to Friendster cafe this Saturday with Timothy and gang. That guy just made one of his friends got pranked in Hitz.fm’s morning crew “Gotcha!”. Hehehehehe quite funny also, and hopefully I don’t end up a victim myself some day :S

Ciao!
