Bring back my muse

Was just browsing through my previous posts and realised that i had loads of ideas and loads to write. So semangat, unlike now. Muse, muse pls come back!!

Not so happening

Watched "The Happening" yesterday. My first movie since "The Water Horse" about two months back. It was a distinct Mr Shyamalan's movie, but also not quite so. It was typical as the show keeps one wondering what was actually happening. And it was not so typical as one would still be wondering at the end of the film. It did not have that satisfying twisted ending like that of "The Sixth Sense". But it does have a moral to the story which is to be kind to our environment!

Obviously not that smart after all

This is a long overdue complaint of a certain cable tv provider. It recently advertised to change to its new smart card. One would only assume that this was to improve its services especially during foul weather. Why else would it want to introduce the new card? Anyway, to my utter dismay and horror, the new and not-too-smart smart card did nothing to improve this cable tv's service during bad weather. And even during good weather, the service was not at all free from disruptions. To add insult to injury, mom and i encountered at two separate incidences, while watching the tv, the decoder suddenly went to stand-by mode! Yes, this was after we changed to the new card (never before had this misfortune with the old card)!!! So whose brilliant idea is it for the new smart card?!
