watched walk the line today after school! school ended real early too cos we had like half day of school only today due to the FANTASTIC o level results last year! so anyways, karen, wanting, taariq and i took the opportunity and time to catch a movie lah. wanting had initially wanted to watch i not stupid too, but then we decided to go for something different and sweet. :)
i wanna talk bout school first. so yah, we went to class and the fire drill that we had all expected finally happened as i was walking back to class. hahah. lol. lucky i found enough time to drop my bag and join everyone as we made our way down to the field. when we had all assembled, we took attendance and i dunno why the hell they made us stand under the sun for sucha long time before they gave us permission to enter the hall for assembly! ahahah. i guess it was some admin. problem lah, whatever. so we went to the hall and mr yap debriefed bout the entire fire drill process which was sucha bore. then there was a total defence presentation thingy that was supposed to be a mini-concert. so lame! i mean hey! there wasn't even ONE performance lah ok.. just some super lame stuff that i don't even remember lah...
and then there were house meetings! for one whole hour, we got into our respective houses and sat there to nominate people to run and stuff. so karen and i went to new block cos mr jain and miss lim were meeting the EXPLORERS there. hah, i really do hope we win AGAIN this year for sports day, like every year. hahaha. all the sports cca people are here lah, almost. you've got basketball, netball, volleyball, badminton and soccer people. and mind you, they are the better sports athletes lah. i just sat there and looked on as everyone got excited. hah. karen and i were seriously bored.. and trying to sing jack johnson songs but we couldn't recall the tunes! sigh! needed my mp3 badly though. mr bernard was like wandering around the explorers. hah, we initially thought he was scolding people lah, but no! he was encouraging people to sign up and volunteer to take part in the events! hahh. can you believe it, he's either a explorers teacher(unlikely), or he's supportive of us, or he's simply kaypoh! yep, and we got dismissed at 10:30am and 4A had to clear basement to find ms yew's missing cheongsams. fortunately, we found them!
so walk the line was real good. it was nice lah. but one thing was that it was kinda draggy at the start... and the movie's like 2 hours and 20 minutes. i love the setting cos its like in the old fashion days kinda thing. joaquin phoenix as the legendary johnny cash himself and reese witherspoon as june carter. actually, joaquin phoenix really kinda resembles the original man himself, i realised later when i surfed for his shots. the country singing were all good. really liked the parts where they sang the duets. the story's quite predictable, bout this singer who got into trouble with drugs and all, and he's torn between his love for singing, drugs, and the love of his life played by reese witherspoon (although he already has a wife and family) it's kinda tragic lah, the entire journey he took. but interesting enough. one can't help it but feel a bit of dislike yet empathy for the guy cos of his ways.
