I love movies. I love to go to the cinemas. I love everything that has to do with movies. So what am I going to do about it? Of course, I am going to write about it.

To begin the very first episode, I would like to talk about the movie 2012.

As we know, 2012 is based on the Mayan belief that the world is coming to an end in the year 2012 (or to be exact on 21 December 2012).

I must say that this movie is a must-watch movie for us all.

If you are religious, be warned. Do not believe what you have watched in the movie. Of course, we all know that the end of the world would come some day but don’t be so obsessed with it because this is just a movie to remind us that life is short, life can be taken away from us at anytime and the most important is to appreciate our family and friends.

Ok, let us have a look at the cast:

    John Cusack             ...     Jackson Curtis

    Amanda Peet            ...     Kate Curtis

    Chiwetel Ejiofor        ...     Adrian Helmsley

    Thandie Newton        ...     Laura Wilson

    Oliver Platt            ...     Carl Anheuser

    Thomas McCarthy        ...     Gordon Silberman (as Tom McCarthy)
   
    Woody Harrelson        ...     Charlie Frost

    Danny Glover            ...     President Thomas Wilson

    Liam James            ...     Noah Curtis

    Morgan Lily            ...     Lilly Curtis

    Zlatko Buric            ...     Yuri Karpov

    Beatrice Rosen        ...     Tamara

    Alexandre Haussmann    ...     Alec

    Philippe Haussmann          ...     Oleg

    Johann Urb            ...     Sasha

Now back to the story line. It starts off with Adrian visiting Satnam, his friend, who is also a geological professor at a university (University of Chennai, if not mistaken).

Satnam is the first one to discover about the strange phenomena that is also the sign for the end of the world. This discovery leads to more discoveries and soon they refer this matter to the President. Soon after that, a secret plan is carried out. Only a handful of people know about this operation, whereas public figures will have to keep the citizens in the dark about the end of the world. Those who tried to tell everyone about the event will end up dead.

Charlie Frost is a DJ who broadcast his own radio show from Yellowstone has begun to talk about the end of the day. He even collected some really important documents but only one that is the most important -- a map that leads Curtis and his family to China in order to board the ‘arc’.

To find out the rest, you will have to watch the movie. There is no way you can get the satisfaction by reading this.

Overall, the acting is ok. I hate the romance part but I love the father-son scenes (very touching). This movie can be better by kicking out the romance. Seriously, do we need that when the world is ending?

Roger and out!

Robert Pattinson LOL

People love Rob Pattinson. Kids, teens, young adults and even some of the "middle age" ladies love him dearly... because... he is a Vampire in Twilight.

Pair him up with Kristin and you get the perfect match (or so we thought).

Here we have some of his pictures in funny captions (possibly from people who is not so fond of him).

Make Money With Churp Churp Through Twitter

If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to my RSS. You might consider to read Writing Consultation if you want to learn to become a freelance writer.

If you live in Malaysia or Singapore and use Twitter to keep in touch online, good news is you can make some extra money by signing up with Churp Churp, an advertising platform to send tweets to your Twitter account so you can earn money from the ads.

Signing up is easy. Once you have signed up, wait for the assigned campaigns for you and when you receive the assignments, you send a tweet to your Twitter account through Churp Churp in order to make sure that you earn the money through the ads.

Important details:

You need to follow the guidelines given for each assignments or else you risk losing the chance to earn money.

You must send the tweets through Churp Churp website or else the tweets don’t count. This is because Churp Churp team will have to review your tweets before they post it on your Twitter account.

You will have to wait about 24 hours after your tweets go online in order to see the amount of earnings.

Malaysians and Singaporeans might be getting different type of campaigns depending on the target by the advertisers.

How much can you earn with one tweet?

It is difficult to say but according to my own experience, my very first tweet earned me RM2.92. I am not sure if this is a good start as there might be other Twitterers who are earning more than this figure from one tweet. One thing for sure it takes some time to earn RM100. Be patient.

How much money you have to make before you can cash out?

RM100.

Yes this is a huge amount, but then again, this is a side income not main stream so it is a good thing to know that you are earning money passively. You might reach RM100 after a few months and by that time, you would be happy to know that you are getting an additional RM100.

Nationality Validity?

Only Malaysians and Singaporeans can join for now. More Asian countries would be available soon (according to the founder).

Worth It?

It depends on how you see the big picture. You don’t get new campaigns every day. You don’t get to cash out immediately. However, you have nothing much to do except to write a 140-character message containing the ad details and post it.

Basically, this is a side job that seems like a growing a tree. You plant a seed, you water it and take good care of it, after a few months, it grows into a tree and bears fruit so you can harvest the fruits. You get what I mean.

You decide whether it is worth to try or not.

Girls Are Evil

This is how you calculate whether Girls are Evil.

I Will Be Moving

If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to my RSS. You might consider to read Writing Consultation if you want to learn to become a freelance writer.

I am moving!

*Sigh*

Yes, I am going to move back to Batu Gajah, Perak.

Why?

My husband wants to start a business in home town.

This sounds good. Supposedly I have nothing to complain about.

However, I will miss KL. You might think that I am crazy.

There is nothing special about KL. More pollution. Sound pollution. Air pollution.

But I have been living in KL for like 4 years now. This is like my home.

Moving back to home town is like moving into a new neighbourhood.

It is totally different from spending a week in home town during holidays.

Therefore, I am facing a new level of anxiety. I am nervous. I am scared.

What if things didn't work out the way they supposed to be?

All I can do now is pray that everything will work out the way I want it to be.

Update 6/9/09: Only about 2 weeks left before I finally make the big move! *Sigh*
