Another Teen Flick


yeah, you've read the title. This is a rather 'old' one, I guess. It was from 1999, but entertaining enough, although it may not be that awesome.
I would rate this movie as an 'okay'. What draws my attention this movie was particularly because it was satirical and critical of the highschool and political scenario.
Basically, it's a good social study of "how far a person would go for their own personal gains."
I'm not sure if any school in Malaysia has been practicing campaigning for the student body president, but as far as it goes, these things still happen even without the campaigning programs.
People will always be people. It applies for any human being at any time, anywhere on this planet. Some would go at all cost to eliminate competition in order to win. Competition is not about upgrading yourself to be ahead of your game, but it is about crushing other people on your way to the top. Sounds diabolical?
This movie includes all that backstabbing and scandals and secret affairs. Haha, just try to view this as an analogy of hmm... many things. Be it the student government at your very own school, or the even the bona fide Government, for that matter. Everything seems to fall right into place.

Spider-man

Firstly, I should make my biases clear, but I'm pretty sure it's obvious. I've seen the Sam Raimi trilogy and of course, I will be comparing it to the reboot. After all, the reboot came a little bit too soon after the trilogy. Most of what follows will probably just be my personal preferences and gripes. Warning, spoilers abound. 1. Peter Parker I liked the doe-eyed Tobey Maguire more as the day-to-day Peter Parker. He's the nerdy, unsure of himself, normal guy. Andrew Garfield's cheeky boyish look doesn't make me buy the Peter Parker-ness. Andrew Garfield looks like he belongs to some teen series. 2. Mary Jane versus Gwen Stacy I hated Kirsten Dunst's Mary Jane. She's completely helpless like the traditional damsel in distress and sometimes her whining about her relationship with Peter Parker, seems, idk, petty, and sometimes she seems to not understand his predicament of being Spider-man and not being able to be there for her all th

Memori Keropok Lekor

Setiap kali ada school trip ke SBP pantai timur di Pahang atau Terengganu (seingatnya, pernah mengunjungi SESTER-Perfect Score Zon Timur 2009, SBPI B. Rakit-HKSBP Zon timur 2008 kot? SHAH Pekan- HKSBP Zon Timur 2006, SESMA-bermalam untuk Sambutan Hari Guru Kebangsaan. Eh, who knows where the headgirl of SESMA 2009 is right now? and....tu setakat yang ingatlah tentang sekolah yang dikunjungi), kalau berkesempatan lalu Batu Buruk, mesti singgah beli keropok lekor. Best gila. Sekali beli mesti habis dalam RM 50, sebab beli untuk cikgu, untuk kelas, untuk ahli dorm. Sesampainya di kelas, keropok lekor akan dibahagikan untuk bahagian budak-budak (budak-budak?) laki and budak-budak perempuan. Di bahagian depan kelas, budak-budak laki dalam sekelip mata sahaja menghabiskan keropok. Budak-budak perempuan pula makan di meja belakang (selalunya meja akulah tu. Nampak sangat muka kuat "jjella", huhu). Kita makan 'cover-cover', konon ayulah kot. And then, berduyun-duyun pergi
