lets go to plan b - ES this had better work!

i've already spent time in delirium

i have got an extra day off. which means a lot of sleep. so that puts me in a mood to take the world by the scruff of its neck and shake it all about. hmmmm.

i have been blessed with a lot of good food too off late. and though i've eaten enuff to feed a small nation, i have gained no weight whatsoever. my pants are still dropping and i dont really bother, as long as theres clean underwear, everythings ok!

kuwait celebrating its national day and liberation day - this can only mean one thing. two actually. one traffic is backed up all the way to kingdom come on certain arteries. the other, there are morons with snow foam cans waiting to spray passers by and cars with that gunk. it is an offence, but like really now, the police are gonna arrest these guys? not in this lifetime.

oh yes, being the shy guy i am {ahem}, theres this girl see. and i can talk so easily to her friends and i dont kno what to say to her. me??? me??!! i always have a thousand things to say but i dont kno what to say to her except "hey, h u doin? hows work? hmmm."

work - hmm that reminds me, our unit is now smaller. today is the last working day of ZAM. gonna miss her. yeah sure shes always screamin at me, but then if she wont who will. and theres BM, his last day with us is thursday. sure is gonna be a lot quieter around. oh well lifes like that and we march on, right? right?

i finally saw "the day the earth stood still" and for those who havent, please do. its a classic and what it has to say is quite simply, hmm, important. released 1951, me thinks this movie at that point of time, post WW2, really tried to push what could, in a manner of speaking, actualise. will wait for the 2008 release of the same to see if the movie makers can offer the same quality that the original did 57 years ago. also saw absolute cheese, "plan 9 from outerspace". 1959 release. this movie has been deemed one of the worst ever made. it is surprising though, that there are movies still released with the same set of substandards that plan 9 used.

there have been a few movies i have seen that have had a profound effect. one of the more recent ones being "v for vendetta". perhaps movies with dystopian themes are not very different from reality. it appeals due to the harsh lines/stance taken by society and the justice system(?). and it makes sense absolute. we're not far off.

meanwhile metalcore is the way to go.
