The Day After Tomorrow

i was asked to update my blog by someone who hasn't been doing so for the past whole year...so...maybe i should. ;)

anyway, i was watching The Day After Tomorrow last nite after Bubbleboy...yeah...trying to get the Jake Gyllenhaal fever back. and while i was watching TDAT, it really looked as if it would turn real anytime in future...

there was tsunami- the most disastrous event of the century. that's scary wei.
"Mangrove greenbelts were known to offer some protection against destructive ocean events, such as tsunamis and (far more frequently) tropical cyclones, but they have not always been valued for that function. Economic and political interference, driven by short-term benefit, has been responsible for the destruction of thousands of hectares of mangrove forest (e.g., in East Africa, on the Indian subcontinent, and in Banda Aceh, Indonesia), resulting in the loss of the natural, protective "dyke" function of mangroves in addition to the loss of other services that mangroves provide to local economies and ecosystems"- sources fron the internet.

then there were flash floods, hurricanes, taifuns...uncountable catastrophes that swept away so many lifes. all that grounds to one fucking thing...global warming.

first, there was katrina. then there came rita. and now, taifun that strucked hainan island.

maybe they should stop naming these calamities female names and they'll stop...who knows?!

ok...that was kinda shallow la. but then doesn't it sound insulting that almost all awful things are given female names? i wonder if the TITANIC is a female name. if it is, mayb it wouldn't have lost its way and hammered into an iceberg if it was name Micheal. cos ppl always say women have no sense of direction rite? serve them rite la!

ok. i'm totally infuriated by the results of the Malaysian Idol.

i wasn't annoyed by Daniel at first. Just thought he couldn't really sing and didn't deserve to be in top 10. but then if the lalas like him. okla. just dun let him win. Now, even mentioning his name irritates me. with votes even higher than Jaclyn Victor? come on la...WAKE UP MALAYSIANS!
