dare to hope for what is good
instead of what is merely good enough.

 Of karmic dating and assholes

Mich and I were having our regular tête-a-têtes online, and the topic of dating came up.

arbitrarysign says:
i dunno about the brains getting in the way
but there's just... it's like a coin balanced on its edge
it could fall, or it could stay up

moomoo says:
oh my fwen...dun marry an asshole ok?? pls!

moomoo says:
i've dated enuff assholes for both of us!


I love how there's an implication that there's a certain quota of assholes that everyone has to date before getting married - and that she's taken my share of the assholes. :-)

 The UNSW Asia Affair

The Singapore papers seem to have covered it from the student angle - The New Paper and ChannelNewsAsia both focussed on the "shock" that the disenfranchised students experienced, and their resultant unhappiness and confusion. On the other hand, Australian press says that it's a "blow to the city-state's ambitions to be the region's leading centre for education".

Don't you just love how many ways you can spin a story?

I'm just sorry for the students - it looks like they've been given a raw deal, though the whole thing is a little suspect: if money was a problem, how did the problem get so big? And if money were really the problem, I think EDB should help them out a little more: stop the Changi campus, and stay in Kay Siang Road, have more tie-ups with more universities, and not just UNSW - maybe get them to partner up with another foreign education provider like MDIS?

 Major Renovation works!

As you can tell, this site is being overhauled. I'm still posting as I tweak my settings and dust off my javascript and CSS notes, so keep coming! And leave comments! One major reason for the site overhaul is the demise of my comment provider, backblog.com, which died convulsing after a takeover.

 Spider-man 3: Emo-Spidey

Given that I love love love the Spider, have all the episodes of Spider-Man: TAS, as well as the Spider-Man CGI series that came out after the first movie, I'd say Spider-Man 3 can do no wrong in my eyes. So overall, I love it, but I understand the flaws that come with it. But it still rocks for me, cos I'm one of those juvenile fans that the press always talks about.

Spoilers ahead, read with caution.

1. Everyone cries. This film is very emo. Exploring the "inner-self" and "getting in touch with your feelings" seems to have affected everyone - Peter, MJ, Harry, Aunt May, Eddie Brock (Venom), Flint Marco (Sandman), the police commissioner etc - everyone's emo. With just cause, but still! It's an ACTION flick, not a chick flick! I was amused.

2. Hair equates badness. Long hair over your eyes means you're bad, good guys comb their hair back. I was most annoyed at this - it's like Superman/Clark Kent's glasses. Do you think we're stupid?

3. Wasted villians. Venom is killed? What about Carnage? Poor Marco Flint! He's got a kid and a story to tell! Why let him go with the wind? And the new Goblin (who's actually supposed to be the Green Goblin, since his daddy was supposed to be the Hobgoblin, but everything's messed up in the movies) - why did you kill Harry? Don't you know that we love James Franco because he's HOT and DRRRTY, the way that clean-cut Spidey isn't? (Drrty Spidey just looks like an oily mafia hanger-on, with the greasy hair and the black suit and black shirt.) Not enough that you made Topher Grace look FUGLY with that haircut, you KILLED him as well, so now we have to do without two really hot dudes in the movies? Tobey's cute, but he can't carry the whole thing, not with the mopey 'tude.

4. The girl, the girl, the GIRL! Gwen Stacy should have been given more screen time, given that she's The Original Girl. Either that, or she should have DIED because of the goblin (come ON, give us some comic continuity!) and Spidey breaks up with his premature MJ romance because he's consumed with guilt which would SO FIT IN with the theme that Sam Raimi was goin for. You've killed the villians, get the GIRL RIGHT.

5. Doc Connors, Doc Conners, wherefore art thou Lizard? After appearing in three movies with nary a twitch in that direction, perhaps the correct answer to ask would be: WHENfore art thou Lizard? When? And I think taking away the discovery of how to contain the Martian Symbiote from you was a terrible crime.
