I still can't believe I went for this movie few days back, as previously I'm not the type of person can watch this kind of 'unknown' movie (because I totally never heard this movie before) late at night, and guess what, I even watch this movie at Gurney Plaza - Penang most famous shopping mall which located at the most traffic jam area.
Queue up, and finally I holding the movie tickets in hand, I'm still asking what is this movie about, and I get blank info for this movie, and just walk towards the cinema with full of question mark round and round on my head, I just hope I wouldn't fall asleep, or walk out the cinema before the movie end.
Flip over the movie ticket, I found one red stamp sign on the ticket: "For above 18 only", something came to my mind is either this movie contained a lot of sexual (18SX) or violent (18PL) scenes. Mmm...interesting!
Surprisingly, I laughed within the first 10 minutes, and I can confirm this is a comedy movie as the dialog are just funny, and make you have no other choice but laugh.
Synopsis:
a terrible guy named Garrett (Justin Long) break up with his girl friend because he not even understand why a girl still expect a present during her birthday even though she said : "..no, you don't need to buy anything for me..".
He was sad, gather around his room mate and a best friend, having a man's talk in a bar, with a lot of beer. In the bar, this is where he meet Erin (Drew Barrymore) at the "Centipede" game machine.
After the drink, they were sleep together, and they thought they can just treat this as 'one-night-stand', but they couldn't. Garrett still date Erin even he been told that she just have another 6 weeks in New York, and she'll be back to San Fransisco to continue her studies afterwards.
6 weeks past, they knew they already fall in love to each other seriously, and that's how they decide to maintain this long distance relationship. It isn't easy as they thought: time difference, distance, trust, ....
I'll give 6/10 stars to this movie. If you think you haven't laugh out loud for a long time, then you can consider this movie. :-)
This week (weak) I'm just 'sick', head always spinning round and round; and my mind always turned into 'Sleep Mode' like the Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Why? This is a 'no-answer-question' to me as well. What I can think of is time for my body to have some 'maintenance'. One the way that I can think of to get rid of this 'sick' feeling is REST (= sleep). It has been a decades that I never sleep for more than 10 hours since my scouting life during high school; surprisingly I did it on the past Wednesday, which consider a movie day for many youngster, but I have 'recharge' myself for one whole night.
Thursday morning, I feel better. Maybe psychologically feel that I suppose to feel better after the long rest; but seems I was wrong...

Discussing about the Langkawi trip with colleagues, and Malaysia Day which held on 16-September-2010 holiday was brought into the topic as well. One of the colleague told me it is on Thursday; after take a look to my desk calender, I correct her it suppose fall on Monday, not Thursday.
Everyone were just look at me, and ask me whether I look at the August one but not September. Their statement rendered me stunned as my eyes still reflecting the big bold words "SEPTEMBER 2010" from the calender, but I just don't know why I was wrong? Am I over-rest? or something went wrong from me?
At that moment, I'm blank, and just subservient to counter-check the calender again and again. Finally, I found that I was right, and at the same time I was wrong; but at least, i got the answer. :-)
Take a look at the date: after 12-September-2010, it jump to 16-September-2010. The following week, after 19-September-2010, it jump to 23-September-2010.
