happy day after valentines day :)

yeah...so all the commotion is over. could not believe the traffic jam i encountered on jalan damansara. actually...it started from kayu ara all the way to KL. that's amazing...worst traffic jam ever. then again...i try to avoid traffic jams so i should say worst traffic jam i've ever been in.

a friend came over to loan a few dvds just now. i think i scared him off with my organizational skills. i document every dvd that comes in and goes out. i have them catalogued and filed alphabetically and i am very strict about documenting all activity. i hate finding out that someone took something without making a note of it and i hate finding dvds that i didn't purchase. what i hate most is opening a box and finding out that the dvd ain't there or that something else is in it. so yeah...i'm a freak. but i like my movies...and i like making sure they are all placed in an orderly fashion.

finally managed to find a song from donnie darko that i just love. it's the song that pops up during the credits. i think its also played during the cinema scene. there's something relaxing about the song...something surreal. it does sound a little melancholic and sad but it puts me in a nice place. not sure what the title is though.

random observation:

was listening to hitz.fm and there was this advertisement about background music for mobile phones. i mean BACKGROUND MUSIC for mobile phones? geeezzzzzzz. what will they come up with next? who would ever come up with that idea? so what....if we activate it we could listen to background music while we're in the middle of a conversation? most of my mobile phone conversations don't go past 20 seconds so what can i possibly hear? the opening of a lot of songs don't last 20 seconds. i'd hang up before the vocals kick in. and what purpose is it suppose to serve? the conversation can't be that bad....can it? do you really need background music to muffle the sounds of the person on the other side? is it supposed to induce some sort of outdoor ambience? like you're having a conversation in a bar or a cafe. some connections are already as bad as it is. gosh...sometimes i wonder who comes up with such ideas and how they conceived it in the first place.

movie watch:

Transamerica was the pick of the week. not going to tell you the whole story but basically it's about a woman...or so it seems...who's in the process of gender reassignment. just before the final surgery she finds out that she has a son. it's funny hearing things like "i'm your father" coming out of felicity huffman. she does pull of the role very well though. not saying she looks like a man but her features are quite masculine and her deep husky voice makes it more realistic. i'm banking on her to win the oscar. then again...i banked on johnny to win the golden globe and he didn't.

Toby: "Did you know the lord of the rings is gay?"
Bree: "I beg your pardon?"
Toby: "There's this big black tower, right? And it points right at this huge burning vagina thing. And it's like the symbol of ultimate evil. And then Sam and Frodo have to go into this cave and deposit their magic ring into this hot steaming lava pit. Only at the last minute frodo can't perform, so Gollum bites off his finger. Gay."
