Two sex-crazed boys and a heartbroken mother. It sounds like a premise for a really gross out humour flick much like American Pie, American Pie 2 and the works. Thankfully, the filmmakers of this film are Mexican. This story is a coming-of-age film about two hormonal-charged teenagers who list "whacking off is cool" as their no. 8 rule of friendshop and a pretty older woman whose husband confessed he was unfaithful to her. The boys meet the woman, tells her of a beautiful beach, and she decides- impromptu- to join them in their "supposed" road trip to discover the beach. In this tale with director Alfonso Cuaron (who did Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban), it is unbashly, openly sexual with the opening scene already of two teenagers having sex in the bedroom. Even though the plot was driven forward by the (sexual) tension between 28 year old Luisa and the two boys, Tenoch and Julio, the memorable characters are still the indigenious people they meet along the way in their roadtrip. No gross out humour in this film. What you get is the beauty of dusty Mexico, and finally, when they hit the beach, it becomes pure paradise. - Well, I guess Hollywood flicks just can't cut it anymore,huh?- Labels: Y Tu Mama Tambian

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.Hear'ye, hear'ye. This is a (very) thick-skinned guide to what Deanna wants for her birthday. *Ahem, on 3rd December, ahem* Anyway, at this 3rd line, all of you will magically forget that Deanna still owe people presents, and ideas for some presents haven't even taken shape yet- er, that means you felicia, leanne, joyce, cheryl leow, disatan my flesh-and-blood sisiter- and also magically forget that Deanna also owe people MONEY for presents- ehehe, JasmineElizabethTeo. Okay, yes, Deanna is quite horrible, but with all the funny (can I say funny?) jokes that she said to all the people who know her, and by creating a Singapore with a Wintery atmosphere, she makes you all happy. NOPE, can't get that kind of quality anywhere else except from MOI. Ok, here goes. 1) I want the shallowest gift of all- money! But most probably will aim my parents and my most favourite big sister (and coincidentally the only big sister). Most probably, I would act as though I'm a contestant on Wheel of Fortune in front of them. ME: Big money! Big money! Mother's most probable reaction #1: 1 week allowance bonus can not? Me: No! Big money! Big money! Mother's most probable reaction #2: Say somemore I give you $2 hor. Can go public toilet 10 times. 2) I want a nice GLAM smelling purfume. Oh yeah. Since I don't have the eye for GLAM clothes, wearing slippers, shorts and the "eh you look like you going market" look to school but smelling oh-so-glam is fine by me. 3) Tickets to Fish Leong's concert ( companion/s included.) No need to sponsor everything, just sponsor 70% of ticket will do. Teehee. I think this one got a certain someone can help. Hehehe. 4) A birthday song. Yeap, if you present me with gift #4, you don't have to give me anything from above. (Only doesn't apply to parents LAH.) Cos what every birthday girl wants is a hearty rendition of a nice birthday song- but please, don't Bring me to Fish & Co. or I'll KILL YOU. 5) A birthday Karaoke treat. Cos what every birthday girl wants, other than a hearty rendition of a nice birthday song, IS to sing other songs at the top of her lungs and not care whether she sounds like a duck or not. Quack. No, singing inside the car at the top of her lungs is not karaoke- it's a way of life for her. 6) Birthday HUG! Me no want no handshake. Me want big bear BIRTHDAY HUG! Okay, that's all for now. I'm thinking of how horrible I will be when it's my 21st. Nonetheless, if anyone I care about does any ONE of the above, Deanna's 20th will be a very happy affair, especially #4 and #6. Cos Deanna has to attend basic camera workshop in (bloody far) NTU in the morning and afternoon, and may have match at night on special day 3rd December. So Dee want birthday hugs to take away what seems like a painfully normal day! Love ya!

I must be crazy- It's 1am in the evening, in the middle of examinations, and I've just watched Boys Don't Cry on dvd. What kept me glued was the allure of the person on the right of the picture above. Nope, that ain't a boy. That's Hillary Swank. "Boys don't cry", a story about the life and death of a "transman" is based on the true story of the murder and brutal rape of a real person called Brandon Teena. It may not be along the lines of fancy Hollywood movies like (eugh) "BRATZ", but definitely worth the time. The message is clear, hate crimes exist because of the failure of Man to see beyond their baseless, unfounded beliefs.

Haemogony- what a word.A negotiated plane where we live. - The question though, is how far can haemogony be applied in Singapore? With regards to freedom, we've got to think long and hard.

Deanna & Joyce: Okay... 2) All the ten cute boys you know are either German, Jewish or dead. Apple: Freud, Gegory Bateson, Darwin and so on la. 3) You think that Freud is laughing at all the communications students at this time of the year- IN HEAVAN. Apple: You know ah, I think Sigmund Freud laughing at us now lor. He must be like, looking at us from heavan and laughing hahahhahaa. Joyce: Hahahhahaha. 4) You find yourself (almost) free of distractions from the outside world. Msg from Apple: Wah lau I just saw 1 hot HOT guy but he is frm ite.

Apple: Yar, but got Freud to pei (accompany) me now, lor. 5) You decide to entertain people who wears an "Emerica" teeshirt and claims he's from America. ShiXiong: Really, I'm from Nevada.

Apple, Fizza, Deanna: (Sang to the tune of Sk8ter boi): Shramm was a stammerer, he said see see see you later girl- Deanna: dunno how to continue already.

1 Item Only.Finally! I had a pre-studying shopping trip. (Which should be mandatory, because it gets one into the mood of studying.*) The only other things I did to improve my stagnant social life was to go to two 21st birthdays. One was extravagant, and the other was simple, but both gave me enough excitment to sustain my nonexistant social life. Ms Koh Ruiyi, who love to poke people on Facebook and Ms Wong Yuen Yan has turned 21! Is the sentance "now they're oldies but goodies" a compliment? I'm just playing with fire right?Nonetheless, I had fun, so I shall replace the above sentence with a smiley face icon. :D Anyway, back to the shopping. The companion was Leanne Wong, a person often mistaken to be a sibling of mine, and having not seen her for a while, I wondered if she had changed. Thankfully no. So we did what we do best, which was to go crazy. This time, instead of going crazy over nothing, we channeled our energy toward the activity of shopping. And in the end, we burnt holes in our pockets, BUT with one item each. Sadly, I had taste that were too high-end for my wallet, and settled on a blouse that cost $75. (Wait! Before you say I'm "siao", read on!) The good thing about shopping with Leanne though, is that she know cheapo methods to minimise regrets. I'm saving the receipt and the price tag stays on the blouse until I'm really sure that $75 is justified. See? We've become rational shoppers! Take that, self-imposed guilt! $75 is equivalent to refereeing 4 games, or being a table official for 8. Which is most probably 3 sessions. Is it worth it? Is it not worth it? But it's so pretty! But it's $75! But I look good in it! But I could buy so many things with that much money! But I seldom shop! But I could have! Relax... calm down... now breathe... I bet this is harder than my impending exams! *Okay la, I'm bullshitting.
