Alex Wong - So You Think You Can Dance

Hello Dahlings!!!

As some of you may already know, I am a huge, HUGE fan of So You Think You Can Dance. This is evident from the several blogs I posted about my favorite routines from the show. Summer is almost here, so that means Season 8 is right around the corner. I think it will premiere May 26th. I am so excited!=) But before we get excited for the next season, let's revisit Season 7 so you can understand why there's so much anticipation coming from me.

I was very heartbroken when Alex Wong had to leave the show due to an injury. When he did not perform during the Top 8 , I thought he was just going to be sidelined for that episode and was hoping that his MRI results would come out ok. Turns out his Achilles Tendon lacerated. That meant for him to have a surgery and rest for 3 months. I was so devastated!!!

Who wouldn't be? Alex was a front-runner in the competition (IMO). Plus he's really humble and grounded which would make anyone love this guy.

Skill+Character+Personality=A++++ Here's that hiphop routine he perfomed with Twitch and choreographed by Nappytabs, a week before the injury:

(Almost all videos of this routine on Youtube have embedding disabled. Just click the link. Sorry)

Mind you, Alex was a former principal soloist with the Miami City Ballet. So for him to dance so completely well outside of his element, as Alex said, speaks highly of him.

Alex definitely won a lot of fans because during the Finale show, somebody tried to recreate that Hiphop routine to pay tribute to him. Who else but Ellen Degeneres!

Are you hoping for Alex's return for Season 8? I am. =)

The Adjustment Bureau

Hello Dahlings!

SPOILER ALERT!!! (You have been warned so don't hate me.)

Today, I went job-hunting again. I also had to pass by my old office and drop some items to my friend. She was late for our appointment so I decided to see a movie first to kill time. I really didn't have any film in mind plus I wasn't really updated with the latest releases. Looking from the list I saw the film "Adjustment Bureau".

Since Matt Damon was in it, I figured, "You can never go wrong with Matt Damon unless it was 'The Happening'." (Sorry, I just didnt like [that] movie)

Lo, and behold! I was right! I looooved this movie!!!!! Worth every penny and time spent. I found the story fresh. Okay, either it was fresh or I haven't been watching too many movies. I'm not going to give way too many spoilers because you need to watch this movie to judge for yourself.

Adjustment Bureau is actually a romantic film with a sci-fi/thriller twist loosely based from a short story written by Philip K. Dick called Adjustment Team . Also, do not be deceived by all the 'Wallstreet' looking men you see at the trailer. You will be surprised what roles they really play in this film.

Adjustment Bureau scores 72% at Rotten Tomatoes. So yes, generally people liked it.=)

There's this one scene I loved the most where the character named Thompson (Terence Stamp) gives David Norris (Matt Damon) a "lecture" about man's 'Free Will'. I am yet to look that up but I promise to post it at a later blog once I find it.=)

Go hit the cinemas and let me know what you think, foxes!

If I Didn't Love You - Tina Arena

Hello Dahlings!

I was going through Youtube looking for some music when I came across this live performance of If I Didn't Love You by Tina Arena.

It reminded me how much I loved this song and the album it came from. In fact, I bought a cassette tape of that album! Hmmm... I wonder where it is now?

Oh! It also reminded me how I used to have this as my "theme song" for my Ex a few years back. I was with the guy for 2 years and for most part, we were fighting like crazy. Like flying books and cups crazy! Hahahaha...

Yeah, I listen to melodramatic music. So what??? Hahaha....

Go visit her pages, foxes!

On CSI And Amber Alerts

Hello Dahlings!!!!

I'm a big fan of CSI. I enjoy watching that show because you get to learn a lot of things. And although some may have been tweaked for the purposes of entertainment, some things they have on the show are factual.

Lets take for example the term "Amber Alert". As some of you may know, to announce an Amber Alert means the a child abduction has occured.

So why the term Amber Alert?

In 1996, 9-year-old Amber Hagerman was abducted and murdered in Arlington Texas. She was playing in the parking lot of an abandoned grocery store when a man sprinted to her and dragged her into his truck. Four days after she was abducted, Amber's corpse was found in a creek bed by a man who was walking his dog. Her killer was never found.

After this unfortunate event, sprung the launch of Amber Alert. Although this was derived from Hagerman's name, officially it has become a backronym for "America's Missing: Broadcasting Emergency Response"

Are you a CSI fan too? Let me know, foxes!
