movie that i watched recently..um let see.oh the avengers.i think its quite good,if youre sort of that fan of marvel's comic and into that heroes thingy.xDDD
first i think its kinda boring because theres not much action,then after 20 minutes its getting fun to watch,where one by one of the heroes come up wit their own entry in that movie.my favourite characters in that movie is captain america and hawkeye.
i like them because i think captain america can plan the strategy well enough before fighting.you know,not that kind of mad man running some ambush and shooting like crazy..haha.for hawkeye,yeah i really love archery,so i just can dreaming if only i can shoot the arrows like him..wah..cool liao.sure a lot of arse gonna cry for momma when i shoot them.HAHAHA.joke.joke.
the story i think mostly all about fighting loki with his bad plan to conquer the humans and making him king of the universe.for me,hes such a greedy and cruel ''god''.
then all of the heroes gather,together they fight with all of what they got to defeat loki and save the world.[if only la..haha]
oh.i just found out that chrysler building is quite famous for any movies..good good.at the same time i can learn something for my architecture's history class.xDD

in conclusion to that matter,we as a human that populated in this earth must respect our mother earth.we shouldnt just blame all of the disaster comes from the above,as we know God is not that cruel to let us suffer.its us whom to blame for cutting down the trees for the sake of erecting another sky crappers,making another place for settlement without thinking of the consequence that we might get later.we didnt appreciate the greens that provide more for us, oxygen,the nice view of that forest,we just destroyed it like that.finally,we must learn how to prevent the ''natural disaster'' that caused by us,without blaming each other for it.

what type of learner i am?

i think im sort of butler + boffin person.the butler part,yes cant be helped and plus im a quiet person,but i do it for a reason.first,its not that i dont really want to answer the questions when asked,it just that i wanna keep myself a low profile.for me its fun to play with the other's answer for the question.when they said it like that i might just gonna smile and playing with 2 or 3 more answers in my head.
you know since in my childhood, encyclopedias was my bedtime story and i love to read facts about how this universe's working and for me,theres no topic that is not interesting to my brain.not gonna say that im a brainiac but after all,its just my ''real self''.
the other thing is,i dont really feel the ''challenge'' here in college.thus making me more quiet and just silently thinking whether i sit in front or at the back in class.i dont like a noisy environment to study,makes me cannot think properly..ughhhh.after all,the only thing i must do is WAKE MYSELF UP because this is my 5th semester already,so i must push my lazy ass to STUDY more properly..or go die without a diploma.hahaha.joking.blehhh~
