January thus far

So far in January I've watched The Legend of Hercules and Jack Ryan : Shadow Recruit thanks to ChurpChurp and I, Frankenstein thanks to GSC. My thoughts on all 3? Not so great but still watchable~ I think I prefer I, Frankenstein > Jack Ryan : Shadow Recruit > The Legend of Hercules.

Out of 10 I think I'd give The Legend of Hercules about 4/10? That's like the lowest I'd give .-. Jack Ryan : Shadow Recruit would be around 7/10 while I'm gonna give I, Frankenstein an 8/10. I don't think I'm eligible to rate them anyway but this is just what I think~ My movie preference has always been different :P I do like watching Jeremy Jahns' review after watching a movie tho cause it's really funny to watch :P

I did win a pair of movie passes to watch Her as well but have yet to collect my tickets to watch it so shall leave it for later~ RoboCop is coming out soon as well~ Hopefully I'd get to watch it in the first week too so I don't have to trouble myself in finding when and where to watch it..

On the other side of my movie watching experience in January, I found myself a part-time job while accompanying a friend to hunt for part-time jobs. Never thought I'd actually get a part-time job .-. It's been about 2 weeks? The first few days were godly boring lol.. I felt like quitting so badly. Communicating with the full-time workers requires patience level over 9000.. I was so close to puking blood OTL These few days were better tho. Less boring and communication is slightly more possible. Previous PTJ were freakier than this even tho communication wasn't a problem :x

Okay enough ranting for now ciao :x

If

If I was born a Japanese (which I really wished I was) I would be a part of this yesterday! http://instagram.com/p/jIjTOPBQT9/

2013 In A Post (wow a very lengthy post indeed)

A very delayed post since I'm a very very very very lazy person. Barely remember much from the first 3 months so... I'll skip those and move on to April.

In April, the only MMORPG game I was playing decided to close down after running for 2 years. I am actually happier that they decided to close the game since I seriously spent too much time on it even tho there wasn't much to do. Hoorah for me :P

In May I probably started watching just about every English non-horror movie in the cinema! It WAS my goal to watch every English non-horror movie in the cinema with the exception of a few movie that I wasn't really that interested in. This went on till July? Or August.. Can't remember much :x Oh and also I re-found an old love for Benedict Cumberbatch after watching Star Trek Into Darkness! ♥ Been pretty much obsessed with him ever since :p Oh the charm~

I can barely remember anything from June to August so... Skip! (Until I ever remember about anything that is!)

Ever since my sis won movie passes to watch The Great Gatsby but NEVER went to watch it, I started joining EVERY movie passes giveaway! (as well as movie merchandise giveaways!) Speaking about movie merchandise giveaways, I now remembered I starting winning T-Shirts and other movie merchandises from June onward :D After Earth and Fast & Furious 6 T-Shirts to start with~ The Lone Ranger feathered pen and keychain~ To name a few :p

Anndddd after months of complaining NOT winning any movie passes, I FINALLY won my first part of movie passes in September!! Thank you TGV for giving me movie passes to watch Closed Circuit ♥ (this is the only time I won movie passes from TGV tho :x) In the following weeks, more like the remaining months, I won movie passes to watch about 75% - 85% of the movies that were released~

Here's the list of movies I won passes to watch~ (and where I won them from) :
Runner Runner (courtesy of Fly FM & also Cinema Online - Yeah won a pair from Fly FM and another pair from Cinema Online (that I didn't know of until 2 days later LOL) with the same time, on the same day, at the same cinema but different halls)
Prisoners, Gravity, Rush (all 3 thanks to The Score Magazine! - which I started buying in May(?)June(?) because they had Star Trek Into Darkness on their cover anddd because they were giving away movie passes!)
Make Your Move, Ender's Game (courtesy of Galaxie Magazine - which I started buying because they had Star Trek Into Darkness poster in em!)
The Reluctant Fundamentalist, 12 Years A Slave (thanks to GSC ! From their website contest~)
Malavita [also known as The Family] (from Asia Media TV channel~ the little tv thingy in RapidKL buses)
Last Vegas, Free Birds (from ChurpChurp!)
Special Identity (from Cathay Cineplex instagram account~)
The Hunger Games & The Hunger Games : Catching Fire (courtesy of Cathay Cineplex - twitter side this time~)
Enough Said (thanks to ChurpChurp again! WHICH I MESSED UP THE DATE AND TIME AND DIDN'T GET TO WATCH SOBZ)
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (courtesy of both ChurpChurp & Cinema Online - should've watched the one by Cinema Online instead T-T)
Walking with Dinosaurs 3D, 47 Ronin, Delivery Man (all courtesy of ChurpChurp as well~)
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (thanks to The Score again! :D)

All the way through the last week of December yo~ Skipped some movies in October since movies released in October are mostly horror movies... Regretted not winning Carrie's movie passes :/ Regretted not watching it either :/ oh well~ will just have to wait till it's out on TV or something~

Went Singapore for AFA in November~ Won some Tees from TeeBusters in between May to November~ 2 that reached me and 2 that never came :/ And some other knick knacks through December~ Including a visit to ChurpChurp's office! :D Pretty fun~ And I picked up Mabinogi again~

Okay I know this is a terrible compilation post :x Just wanted to write everything out whether or not it makes any sense~ There's definitely more to write about but I don't remember much for now :p

Hooray to terrible grammar x)
Ciao!~

Resolutionaire?

Resolutions..

Never really had new year resolutions since I can barely remember something long enough.. But this year I do have one. Or some. Not that I can remember every "resolution" I made for myself.

Top of the list (more like the one I remember most) would be keeping this blog alive! It's not something that can be easily done by me since I'm the type of person who gets lazy over time and give up blogging. Or at least post only once in a blue moon.

The other resolution was (yes was) to be more social. Until I flipped a horoscope book and inside I saw "This year is not a very social year." Or something along the lines and I sorta dropped this resolution on the spot :D

Should I add pick up reading as one of the 2014 resolution? But I highly doubt I'd be able to keep at it. I like to buy books but don't really read them... Bad habit indeed...

So there goes~

Sherlock Craze

Was complaining for the missing ads and bam now I've seen 6 of them! :D
More like the same ad for 6 times! It's funnnn!
There's also another ad that shows Sherlock 3 in it as well and I really love how the background music goes "HELL YEAH" whenever Sherlock 3 pops out! :D
So much fun and love!

ehem

I was just complaining there's no Sherlock ad on AXN even tho series 1 is gonna get a rerun on the 9th and voila the ad came up and I screamed at my sis ;D

(yes this post is this short and necessary because fuckyeahsherlock)

Urgh

It's so hard to totally keep myself away from Sherlock spoilers -___-
Well I haven't actually seen any but still I'm tempted to visit certain pages, reblog some stuff on tumblr (which would show me my dashboard), or some posts from some pages would just pop up my Facebook homepage! I'd close my eyes and scroll past whenever that happens!

It's been either 2 years or a year or a year and a half (seriously I don't remember!) since I watched Sherlock! I fell for it so much when I watched it and very quickly forgotten about it.... /yes-I'm-sometimes-this-terrible/ Wanted to rewatch both series before the 3rd series came out but of course I failed in doing that. Time restrictions etc and how I forever dislike downloading stuff online (with the exception of games and anime songs). Even after downloading both series, I have yet to finish them :x I'm terrible!

But of course like how I forced myself to finish The Hobbit : An Unexpected Journey before watching the premiere of The Hobbit : The Desolation of Smaug, I MUST finish both series of Sherlock before I watch the 3rd series! Since I'm not really fond of watching online / downloading, I'm probably gonna be really slow and wait till series 3 is aired on a local HD channel on TV, which would probably be in March instead AHAHHAHA

Okay bye.
This is becoming so tumblr-y.

Ahoy 2014~

Finally created a new blog~ 
More like I delayed it for half a year because I didn't want to start a new blog in the middle of the year.. And I don't feel like reviving my old blog since I haven't been posting in it for so long. Blog layout and stuff are not sorted out yet so I'll just stick with whichever template I picked when I created this blog. 

This is a non-specific blog. (Pardon the slightly tumblr-ness here) Blog link is picked based on my likings! Living in a country where there's basically only "Summer", I've always loved cold stuff like ice and snow. It's my dream to one day see and touch real snow hence 'Ice And Snowy Dreams'. (Did still took me a long time thinking of the blog link before deciding to use this - which I just thought of yesterday LOL - There were a few other more meaningful ones but still..) I make no sense most of the time and this blog is probably gonna end up being really "Dear Diary". 

Compilation of 2013 (or some parts of it) will be coming soon :D Though it would end up being long and whiny and ranty and probably get split into multiple posts throughout the year. Not to mention it's gonna be boring too. 

End of ranty post #1. Gonna figure out more on what to put up on the blog~ Layout hunting time~ May this blog live through 2014~

Goodbye 2013. Hello 2014~
