a musical weekend treat for me...
there are so many things i wanted to do...especially on my LJ..this needs a revamp...hahahaa...and need to update my icons...with 4-NIN NEWS and SJM and QMI and Tegomasss...
i like what happened to me this weekend...it's interesting and relaxing..and maybe i should make it a point to get this kind of weekend..not entirely musical...but somehow relaxing and enjoyable...and will make me say...YEY!! its weekend time again....
first on saturday despite me waking up later than usual...some people enjoys waking up later during weekends...but i am not one of those.....hahhahaa..its okay..occasionally...but not always...i'd like to wake up the same hour like my weekdays...my reason is..i don't want my weekdays to follow my weekends habit...hahahaa...anyhow..after going to the wet market and find some stuff...and cooking up brunch....and eating it..then napping..then getting on with the house chores...i finally be able to relaxxxxxxxx.....
i watched the movie Pitch Perfect...i'm a fan of anything acapella though most of the songs here are pre-recorded...hahaha..i think that's one of the reason i love those groups I mentioned above..they do well in acapella and harmonizations..it's always a treat to my ear to listen to acapellas...its a typical american movie...and the plot is cliche..but i did enjoy the movie...because of the arrangements of the songs...my most favorite part was the mash up of just the way you are of bruno mars and of course..the final performance of the Bellas..with the dont you forget about me...a.k.a the breakfast club theme song....mix..with price tag..and other songs...i really enjoyed listening to it and watching that final 5-10 minutes before the credits roll..as well as how thru a song..becca sings how she feels about jesse...ahhh..romance...the movie was really feel good movie for me..
and today...my first movie watching experience in Malaysia..hahahaa..LES MISERABLES....i wanted to watch it with my sister..but we didn't have enough time before she went back to the Philippines..and i managed to watch it today...yey...with my housemate and her friend....it was a good movie and despite me being distracted with the substitles..mind you..it has 3 subs..malay, english and chinese....i can say..i am glad i have watched it...and was really surprised...especially how poverty and slavery were portrayed...i do watch movies with slaves and poverty theme...but none like this from the beginning till the end..though i read posts about the singing voices of Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and Anne Hathaway..it was still surprising...they might not be as good as the musical theatre people but they have put their own mark for this movie...and Amanda Seyfried..never fails me yet...it was nostalgic to hear those familiar songs sung by different singers.....those harmonizations between the younger casts..was really very nice...despite it makes my heart bleed especially the last part..where Hugh Jackman died...it even make me cry....for me it was not a bad movie adaptation...
time to get back to work again tomorrow...i'll look forward to it..especially it is a public holiday on thursday...i hope i will be able to see Penang hehehhee...lets see
