sorry for not blogging for such a long time... hav been really busy wif exams. n dun u dare to ask me how i did, cause i did sh!t. i mean all i can say is tat : if studying land me wif such results, i am really not cut out for studying.
yesterday had the 1st ever np activity after a month of exam break. it wasd hell..... it is normal standard for a training sqd but still.....okay i am weak.....however may i omment on the fancy drill. i admit i am not desperate in going into fancy. rifle drill is not bad. but i tink it is better to do my best... it is a once in a lifetime thing... i dun want to have any regets....
oh... must not forget the inter class..... okay 2c lost.. but we bonded. bonding it so much more difficult to obtain than some fancy trouphy....
although these 3 events dominated my life this month, they were not the reason i entered this blog.....is was a film: The Messenger: Joan Of Arc.
i am not a person wif great taste. i hav.... may i say a perculiar taste in music n films. the stuff i like, the ppl i admire or idolise seem to baffle my peers....lol... but tis film totally..... impacted me.
u all may not know much abt joan of arc aka st. joan(u all could go inyo google to find out abt her...). her story had fancinated me since young. however i did not really go right into her history. after watching tis film.... it relighted my passion for joan of arc.
i 1st wan to praise chn 5 for finnally showing something wif sudstance......
it may seem to many as a boring war film. however to those interseted in st. joan.... it would make u think... or even turn u off...
it totally twisted the image of st. joan.... director luc besson daringly put his opinions oof st joan into the film. instead of the couragous heroine ppl all arond adore. the film protrayed her as a eccentric village girl.... whose superstition n faith in her religion had drove her to the verge of insanity. wanting to revenge for the death of her sis ... she warred against the english.... although she did much for the country, she was betrayed n.....u all know the ending.....
okay... the 'verge of insanity' part was my idea.... however the director thinks tat st joan fought not because of the instuctions from God....but frm pure revenge. the ending... the dialouges wif The Concentious was wierd....
actress milla jovovich also impressed me wif her acting... the setting n clothing is so vivid n detailed...
after reading a little abt st joan.... she touched me. altough i am not a chistain....her faith in her religion. her willingness to secrifice for everthing she belived in. her courage in confronting the english.all were so strong.
she died at the age of ninrteen.....it would make u think how a 17 to 19 yr old gal handle all the war n stuff. i am a 'gal power' person.....
the film oso made me think... it is quite rare for films tis days. "u believe wat u choose to believe" its a strong phrase... it would make u or break u.... haizzz
i totally can watch the film again..,. the fights were breath-taking.... WATCH IT!
OVER N OUT
