Be Warned: Massive Fangirling ahead!
Oh hello blog, I've been neglecting you for far too long! So the month of May is afoot, and there is more fangirling to be done!
First things first:
Kris Allen FTW!!!
I don't care what the judges say... Kris deserves to be in the Top 3. He had practically no air time during the audition rounds... yet he came out of nowhere during the semis and surprised us week after week with consistent performances, and really, just stole our hearts with his heartfelt renditions of To Make You Feel My Love and Falling Slowly. It doesn't hurt that he plays both guitar and the piano. It doesn't hurt that he has puppydog eyes and a smile so sweet it could melt the coldest heart.
Haha. Fangirling much? ;)
And as much as I know that Adam is the more entertaining performer (with superior vocal pipes), I still think (and feel) (and believe with full conviction) that Kris is the one that connects most with the audience. That emotional lilt in his voice... that can't be faked. (Or maybe it's just my hormones, hoho) .
So yes, I am completely a Kris fan. And what Kris fan would I be without posting up PICTURES???
Kris in a suit. ^^
Kris and wife - what a cute couple!
Kris and guitar... HOT.
I haven't loved someone on Idol this much since... Elliot Yamin.
Next,
Heroes Season 3 Finale
If you have yet to watch the finale of season 3, don't read the rest of this post if you don't wanna be spoiled!
I just have two comments to make and two photos to post about the finale...
1. How freaking HOT was Peter Petrelli?
I mean, I loved it when Peter was depowered - he was all earnest and brave and noble. But man... when Peter is powerful... he just radiates HOTNESS. Haha... I know, not very coherent, it's the hormones talking, you see. ;) That smirk on his face, the slight huskiness of his voice... I just. Wow. The scene where he jammed the needle into Sylar and said "betcha didn't know I took that power from you huh"... I watched that scene at least 5 times. Now... gaze upon the countenance of badass Peter in a leather jacket and fire illuminating his face... woohoo!
2. On a sadder and less hormonal note... RIP Nathan. :(
What a sad, sad, insignificant way to die. What is sadder is that he had just stopped being the complete ass he was throughout the whole of volume 4... to have him die that way... And not even to be mourned properly because the people who matter (Peter and Claire) don't even know he is dead.... and to have freaking mummy-issues-SYLAR be brainwashed into thinking he is Nathan. Blearghhhhh. Real Nathan, the one who sacrificed himself to fly his brother up into the sky in season 1... the Nathan that I grew to love, is gone.
*sniffles*
That said, I still can't wait for Season 4, Volume 5. Waiting with bated breath, as always.
Twilight
I am a little ashamed to admit that I've finished the entire Twilight book series. Haha... it can't be compared (ever) to the brilliance of Harry Potter, of course... but part of me enjoyed it. Haha. Not too big a fan of the overtly-sappy Edward/Bella romance. But I must say that there are two characters that I really really like (and almost love): Jasper and Alice!
I like tortured characters with a tragic past... Jasper is one such character. His love for Alice, or rather, their love for each other, feels the most real. Anyway the point of this is not to go into a discourse about Jasper, but to also say that Jasper is HOT! Look at this pic of the movie!Jasper.
Vampire love!
OMG I think my IQ just dropped 10 points from the sheer fangirlyness and shallowness of this post. Sheryl... think I've managed to rival your fangirly post. Hehe.
I guess approaching the age of 26 hasn't diminished my fangirlyness at all. One thing about being this age though... my metabolism is finally FAILING me. I haven't changed my diet or exercise patterns at all (that is to say, I still eat a lot and don't exercise at all)... and yet, I'm putting on weight. Sigh. What a sad, sad fact!
Ah well, life goes on. And I shall go on eating and not exercising!
Mummy's birthday tomorrow... happy birthday shoutout to the most important woman in my life! Love you!
Next! Chiaying, my other high school close friend, who I remember fondly for her penchant to laugh like a psycho and do other embarassing things... heehee. Her actual church wedding was in KK, during CNY, so I didn't go. :( I did go to her wedding dinner in KL though. :) Pictures shamelessly stolen off facebook.
Fuzzy picture coz my camera sucks. o_O
Cindy Joon was born in June and got married in June... to a nice Punjabi man. Heehee ^^ This was by far the most eye-opening experience, since I've never been to a Sikh wedding before. It was cool, we donned Punjabi suits and covered our heads and witnessed her beautiful marriage in a Sikh temple.
Punjabi-wannabes ^^
