Memo# 30 : KL Jam Obsession

___________________________________________________________________________

Interesting :I think one day people will be crazy enough to treat West Malaysia as the Scourge and East Malaysia as Sentinel and start to "spawn" Treants - Sarawak trees and Ghouls and send them to "enemy base" to fight.... The objective of Sentinel is to protect the "World Tree" in Mount Kinabalu while the objective of Scourge is to protect KLCC "Frozen Tower"? maybe they will dress like their beloved Hero and start to fight each other just to become beyond godlike? RoFL~! OWNING!

Obviously KLites have a great like for jam. At first I thought they only loved traffic-flavoured jam, but they have a wide variety to choose from.

Today I left the apartment at 10.30am to 1Utama(New Wing) to catch Spiderman 3. My sister told me better to watch an earlier movie because it was less hassle.
I didn't really understand what was going on in the beginning.

So reached there at around 11.15am and went straight to GSC 1U and there was a long line.
Imagine this:

|_booth 1_|_booth 2_|_booth 3_|_booth 4_|_booth 5_|_booth 6_|
|___X_______x______X_______x________X_______x_____ |

  • X - people

that's how long the line was and the movie starts at 12pm
There were probably around 40+ people there at 11am!!!! You can't find jam like that in KK
So after waiting in line for around half an hour, we finally were at the last line.
The only problem was it was Selling Fast and the time was 11.54am so we thought the seats would be scattered around.

Call it blessing from God or good luck, they released the reserved seats when we finally reached the ticket counter. So all the good seats at the centre of the auditorium were vacant. Prime seats man!!! PRIME!!!

Went upstairs to the auditorium.. the toilet also had a jam =.=
Wanted to get some food but the upstairs Popcorn shop was closed

The auditorium is 100x better than KK Cinemas!!! The seats are wide and has neck support plus it doesn't wobble and the side is cushioned. The ceiling is high to create a comfy and not stuffy atmosphere plus the advertisements before screening is better than Mega Pavilion in KK that plays 80' Malay rock music

We just decided to go downstairs to get some food before the show started and the Popcorn shop upstairs was just open. Another stroke of luck so no need to go downstairs.

Spider Man 3

-The Greatest Battle Lies Within-

After reading so many critics of this movie, I totally DISAGREE with EVERYBODY on this show.
Everyone commented that there was too much put inside. That there were too many characters in the show and not enough character development.
I find the show elegantly paced because after so much that happened, it was still the first hour.
The beginning mainly explained on the situation Parker/Spiderman was in. After years of fighting bad press, New York City finally acknowledges his good deeds and celebrate him as a hero. It shows the relationship between Parker and M.J through the first hour.
Even Marco Flint a.k.a the Sandman is elaborated showing a more human side to the villains just like part 2 where they showed Dr. Octopus in a human light.

It is only after M.J denied Parker that he truly embraced the alien symbiote and chose Power over Love. When Parker goes into emo mode, he is seen with darker hair. He lets his hair down covering his forehead unlike his usual comb up. Through this alien creature, his aggression, power, agility and coolness/lameness increases. The coolness is when he buys a new suit and takes Gwen on a date and dances. The lameness is his stupid dancing skills on the street to catch the ladies attention, who find him appalling.

It is only after Parker rejects the alien symbiote that it takes host in Eddie Brock( Gwen's ex-boyfriend) Here is where Venom works together with Sandman to get their revenge.

The cool part starts when they kidnap M.J and openly challenge Spiderman to a duel in the middle of the city. Sandman is seen towering a few stories stronger and more dangerous.
Parker and Harry Osbourne(the green goblin) team up to save M.J while having a tagteam match up.

I personally think this movie out performs 300 and is the best blockbuster I've ever seen.
Though there are more characters, it is not that hard to concentrate on the story being told.
Oh,there's even a cameo appearance by Stan Lee

The fighting part is the best. I personally give it a 10/10 for Spider Man 3
I hope this is not the last installment.

The Cleo 50 Most Eligible Bachelor Stage Show was at 1Utama today hosted by Serena C
I even saw an old acquaintance from La Salle who was in KL! Simeon from 5 Rigel taking Pilot course. So at 4pm went back home

Today is the last day here in Sentul. I'm going to Bangi to a place I never been before with no family. After 3 weeks here, I'm so used to the room that it feels like home for me.


Can't believe it's almost a month in KL already coz' it sure passed by so fast.
It looks like all my options are dead for I am left with only 1 pathway with is through the matriculation program.
I really hope the website to check my application for UPU is updated quickly because it still says IC with starting with year 88.
I leave tomorrow on the final week of my journey in my soul searching, which I have found out nothing. I just hope where I'm going has internet.
