The cake: the New Year tomorrow (it's weird, I'm actually excited).
The icing: the fact that I didn't apply for leave and still don't have to go to work on New Year's Eve.
Yesterday, New Year's Eve was declared a public holiday, because Malaysia won the Asean Football Federation Cup (football) the day before.
What's shocking is that we actually won in something that isn't squash. But I digress. To think we weren't turning into a sports country like America.
And the proverbial cherry? Well, the day's still young. It's just a little past 11am.
Off-topic: Saw Tron: Legacy on Wednesday, review will be up soon. Also, the long-overdue The Expendables.

2011 Resolutions! Updated!
And whaddaya know, it's still 2010!
I noticed that the last time I had a resolution post was in '07. Which brings us to...
#1 Be more consistent.
#2 Be outgoing. I'm quite introverted, and apparently, my mouth is a firm adherer of, "speak when spoken to". This doesn't mean I'll be shooting my mouth off in 2011 like nobody's business, but I will do my best to not clam up so much.
#3 To not be last minute. This is more of a work thing. As our peak is gonna start in less than two weeks, this resolution will be an easy one to keep, since 'last minute' will mean 'staying late', which is something I most definitely do not intend to do this time around.
#4 Blog more. It's been a tremendous struggle for me to overcome writer's block, as I've been feeling very uninspired. Used to be I could just write about anything; now, it's difficult for me even to string one bitching sentence off the top of my head.
[And I used to bitch so well...]
#5 Watch more movies. Partially related to #4, since I can has opinions when after the film watchings.
#6 Be more patient. Especially on the road. Okay, you know what, be patient, period.
And speaking of periods...
#7 Try to be a helluva lot less irritable. The past seven months feels like a massive PMS binge. I get that mood swings aren't something you can control (not without medication), but rationalising my feelings does help. A bit. I just figured it out, hence the long period of Emo. Think this is also related to #4. Huh.
#8 Lose weight. And gain some inner fat, so that the office air-conditioning doesn't get to me and I can finally wear short sleeves and my coworkers won't keep seeing me in the same damn turtlenecks.
And lastly...
#9 Be gutsy and confident! I have serious self-esteem issues, and I've been trying to overcome that, which hasn't been easy when you've been feeling down the past seven months. Thus, for 2011, I resolve to start acting like the hot bitch I am!
[Just kidding, I'm not that delusional. But, I do have a bitchin' wardrobe.]
NEW ADDITION:
#10 Take up Mandarin and/or dancing lessons. Mandarin, because half of my office speaks Mandarin and I am not getting them at all, and dance, well, because I've seen too many dance movies. Plus, hopefully it'll help with my hand-eye-foot coordination, and then I won't be so klutzy. Well, that's just about it for my list for 2011. Will be posting Christmas and New Year greetings as per usual. Piggy...–OUT!
[Yannoe, like Seacrest.] Read More......

2011 Movie List!
I know my list is out way earlier than usual (in fact it's so early it's STILL 2010!!!), BUT one of my resolutions for the coming year is to not be last-minute and be more punctual and stuff.
On a separate note, 2011 rezzies post will be up soon.
[I know, I know, good luck to me too.]
So without further ado, along with trailer links (in case you wanna check them out; no links mean no trailers yet), here's my movie list for 2011:
1) Sucker Punch (March 25th) - Zack Snyder!
2) Thor (May 6th)
3) Priest (May 13th) - Paul Bettany!
4) Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (May 20th)
5) Green Lantern (June 17th) - Ryan Reynolds!
6) Rise of the Planet of the Apes (June 24th) - James Franco!
7) Transformers: Dark of the Moon - NEED I SAY MORE!
8) Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (July 15th)
9) Captain America: The First Avenger (July 22nd) - Avengers Assemble!!! Also, Chris Evans.
10) Smurfs (August 3rd)
11) 11.11.11 (you guessed it - November 11th)
[Yes, my movie decisions seem to be dictated by male leads more than anything, so fricken' what?]
Those movies without trailer links, I'll add them as they come, along with any other movie that catch my eye.
For now, it's 11 movies for 2011. Hopefully I can beat my 2010 score, and watch more than six movies this time 'round.
