hmmm..

i just bought a set of sennheiser CX 300 Earphones from a thread in hardwarezone.
apparently its from onlineshop.com.sg.



good service, and delivery right to my doorstep.
awesome stuff. and it cost only $50 from its usual price of over $100+.

contact me for more info on this.


due to the recent demise of my creative zen microphoto, i reverted to my Creative Muvo TX FM:

it's nothing much, but it's still in very good condition.


only downside was, it's 128 meg.




so i thought of my Creative Zen Nano:


it's better at 512mb.

prob was, it had previously been dunked in a cup of ice lemon tea.

being desperate for a larger capacity, i slotted a battery in thinking i wouldn't lose anything..




and it worked.
the lights were on, the sound was still good quality, and the new earphones worked perfectly.







such is the awesomeness and durability of creative players.

and the good Lord for this little miracle.










i've watched this great french movie:

Les Choristes (The Chorus).

Wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_choristes

extract:
"The plot is about a passionate music teacher who arrives at a correctional boarding school for boys and transforms their lives through music. The film stars Gérard Jugnot as Clément Mathieu the teacher, and Jean-Baptiste Maunier as Pierre Morhange, one of his students, a musical prodigy....
...The film explores the pain of a child's separation from his parents, and the transcendence of music as the greatest form of expression."



the camerawork is awesome. it starts out dark and gritty, and as the film progresses it becomes clearer and brighter: exactly how the storyline progresses. camera angles are fantastic - absolutely beautiful.

camerawork: 10/10.

the storyline is captivating. never have i seen such a clean, good movie that's so enjoyable and heartbreaking. i actually felt for the characters - not something that happens very often. there aren't any plotholes, it progresses nicely, and the characters are perfect.

storyline: 10/10.

the sound. perfect sound. the children acting were actually trained in singing, and their voices are natural - it sounds almost angelic. morhange's solo was captivating beyond words.

sound: 10/10.



this movie is PERFECT.
perfect. guaranteed entertainment for ANYONE who watches it.

if an action junkie like me can enjoy this, i'd bet anyone else would too.




if you do want it, tell me. =)




more pictures, lesser words: ain't it what everyone wants?
