It has been a while since I wrote movie reviews so I figured I'd start it off again with this heart-warming movie : PRINCE WILLIAM & CATHERINE MIDDLETON: ROYAL ROMANCE.
This movie was all about the courtship of Prince William and Kate Middleton and it mirrored the whole thing quite perfectly. What I meant to say is that they captured the general attitudes and feelings between William and Kate. And you know what they said, feeling is the most important part of every movie :) So there you go.
Besides that, the storyline was okay too, but they kind of missed out a little, if I remember correctly, which I most probably do .
The downside of this movie was that the physical appearances of the characters and this made the whole movie looked very strange at first lol. But I could say that Prince Harry looked like himself and when William and Kate looked sideways, they kind of looked like themselves too, only when they didn't look straight at the camera LOL.
But all in all, the movie sent out a wonderful tale of true love, which is what William and Kate stand for. True love stays on with them! William and Catherine Forever !

Nottingham Information Day
Location: University of Notthingham Malaysia Campus, Jalan Broga, Semenyih.
Date: 14.1.2012
With: My family and I
After I filled in the enquiry form, we waited for our enquiry section. Thing is, you'll have to know exactly what course you're going to take even now in order to do the enquiry. Fortunately, I knew for quite a long time. I'm going to take Modern Languages and Cultures degree. ;)
When it was our turn, we went into an area which used to hold seminar sessions. ( There were 3 areas today. 1. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. 2. Faculty of Sciences. 3. Faculty of Engineering.) Mine was Area 1. When we went in, we were lead to a table which had a written sign 'Modern Languages and Cultures'. Sitting at the table waiting to greet us was Dr Tessa from New Zealand, who will be my future lecturer, probably. :D We talked about loads of stuffs, all about the degree, of course. I enjoyed talking to her LOL. She's such a nice lady! She even gave me the course's own facebook page and her very own business card! Lol, she said I can connect with her. After the enquiry section with her, I feel that my future paths are clearer! It's great!
After that, we had a tour around the campus. It's, without a doubt, one of the nicest place to study and get a degree! The place is so clean and neat and the scenery is beautiful ! With lakes, fountains, trees and mountains, what could you ask for more? :D The campus is so huge too! The blocks are being differentiated by colours and my faulty's block is in bright orange LOL! The students are mostly from other countries, such as Europe, Asia and Africa and so on. Nottingham is indeed an international university! It's so awesome!
Hopefully I have a chance to actually go and study there!

2011. 2012.
There's a fine invisible line between 2011 and 2012 and of course is the line which everyone at every corner of the Earth will crossed between 11.59pm in 2011 and 12am in 2012 !!! OMG
Goodbye 2011 and hello 2012 !!!
All happiness and bitterness that 2011 had offered is going to pass and end . 2011 is a particular memorable year for me ( even if it's rather bittersweet, but I assure you that happiness is way more than sadness !!!)
Let's see what 2012 has in store for us, shall we ? :)

Writing a Novel !
Months ago, I promised Joyce and Khai Xin to write a medieval-themed story for them as a token of our sisterhood. And so, I'm going to keep my promise and start writing ! :)
Perhaps I could make this story in a series too ! ( Way too much experience and love for book series, see post below)
But umm, for the time being, I'll be writing a single book. :D
http://akingdomofroses.blogspot.com/
Here're the insights : ( Especially for you ladies :D )
Title of the upcoming book : The Kingdom of Roses ( And it's final ! )
Genre: Medieval( Middle Ages) Classic, Romance, Adventure, Action, Comedy and a tiny hint of fantasy
Settings : Main settings: Kingdom of Teragon, Kingdom of Zernia , Kingdom of Sillas ( Final choices! )
Characters :
Main characters: Princess Liesliana Cordillus of Teragon, Princess Eveline Cordillus of Teragon, Princess Kathleena of Teragon . ( Final choices ! )
Summary:
Explanations on the Middle Ages ( Medieval) :
The Middle Ages (adjectival form: medieval, mediaeval or mediæval) is a periodization ofEuropean history from the 5th century to the 15th century. The Middle Ages follows the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and precedes the Early Modern Era. It is the middle period of a three-period division of Western history: Classic, Medieval and Modern. The term "Middle Ages" first appears in Latin in the 15th century and reflects the view that this period was a deviation from the path of classical learning, a path that was later reconnected by Renaissance scholarship.

The first chapter will be up soon ! :D

Books. Series.
These recent years, I have slipped into a unusual habit.
Tend to read books which are in a series.
And there'll be 5 or 6 books in a particular series.
In fact, all these years, I have only read three extremely famous book series.
All the other books in the market don't appeal to me, at all.
And the book series are none other than HARRY POTTER series and PERCY JACKSON series ( Percy Jackson and the Olympians & The Heroes of Olympus ) .
I really couldn't figure out why.
Maybe I'm just too used to the old and familiar stuffs ? And I have somehow developed deep relationships with the books and its characters.
That might be the ultimate reasons.
But right now, as you know( unless you live in a cave somewhere in a jungle), the HARRY POTTER series and the PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS series were long been published and of course, I had finished reading them.
All that's left is THE HEROES OF OLYMPUS series, which only leaves 2 or 3 books to complete it.
I shuddered to think what I'll be reading then.
Maybe before my time is up with this book series, I'll need to find a new 'attachment' .
That's just sad.
Or perhaps I can finally lay my hands on those solitary books in the market...
We'll see how everything goes then.
To be frank, I couldn't really imagine me reading just an ordinary book right off the bookshelf...
Been lost touch for 5 years, to be exact...but of course with a few exceptional cases ( i.e. self-motivation books, self-help books, history books and a few extraordinary novels)...
The time will come, or maybe it won't, for me to shop for singular jewel in seas of books...
Here're a few book series that aren't my cup of tea :
The Inkheart series : ( but maybe this will after I explore it a little bit further )
The Kane Chronicles series :
The 39 Clues series :
Twilight series : ( Particularly this one... I had my reasons )
And so on...
Book series that are in my collection now :
Harry Potter series :
And books related to the Harry Potter world :
( The above books are the total number of books which are written by J.K Rowling about the Harry Potter world. It also means that it's the total number of books written by her for all these years as she didn't write anything rather than Harry Potter stuffs. )
Percy Jackson and the Olympians :
Book related to Percy Jackson world :
I'm still missing a book about the Percy Jackson world, which is the Percy Jackson Ultimate Guide.
The Heroes of Olympus :
