Happy Birthday Singapore!~

For the first time in - I have no idea how many years - I watched the Singapore National Day parade. Even though, it was from my new Macbook, webcast from the Internet... It was still the National day parade. There were a few things that I was actually looking forward to see.

The many songs that I grew up listening to like Stand Up for Singapore and some of the Chinese and Indian songs that I learnt at HGS... Those were the memories.. hehe..
Ok.. so this is one time of the year when I feel patriotic enough to say that I am proud to be a Singaporean.. Yes.. just once a year is fine.. But then again, I cant help it if I am a Singaporean, living in Australia.. a Malay Singaporean... who alhamdulillah is well accepted in another country, when she isnt accepted in Singapore.. tsk tsk..

Once again, Happy Birthday Singapura!!~

Cinta

Monash University together with Centre for Malaysian Studies and probably the High Commission of Malaysia organised the Malaysian Film Screening, held at Monash University, Caulfield Campus.

Throughout the year, five Malay movies are screened for free at Link Theatre, Building S, Caulfield Campus, Monash University. Everyone, whose anyone is invited to come. Having watched the second movie, Cinta, I assumed that the Malay movies chosen because they were good and of high standards, or at least I hope they are. And yes, I think im falling in love with the Cinta movie.

If i am going to be a director or producer of a movie, I would have taken Cinta's concept of linking everyone with each other and how the people next to you are also facing the same problems as you are.. So don't think that you are alone in this world.. Cause you're not!

I cant remember how many times i cried during the movie because it was really, really touching. I cant wait to go back Singapore or Malaysia to get the original DVD.. Maybe get Fahmi or Rauds to get it for me... So anyway, my fav ultimate scene was near the ending when Azlan proposed to Azura with Hazrul Nizam's 'Kaulah Segalanya' playing at the background. Ok.. Im a sucker for love scenes.. if you havent already know that!~

I recommend those who LOVE romantic movies go watch Cinta. They have English subtitles so you dont miss out on what they are saying.. Besides, i think half the movie is like in English.. Oh Cinta... Cant wait to watch it again!~
