.. last night i went to see Batman Begins @ Greater Union Innaloo, and i have to say, that it is one fabulous movie. Im not too sure whether it was the scripting, the screenplay, or just the mere fact that prequels are always fantastic (i mean, who DOESNT find it fascinating how superheroes began?), but it was fabulously dark, explanatory and brilliant :) Anyways, the actor is relatively unknown, but he has definitely aged since the last time I saw him in anything! Back then, he played a 18 year old in the midst of finding his life's path, and falling in love, and even back then he had that awkward speaking mouth. Ohhh he was a dream back then.. but he's not so good now. Despite the greatness of the film, two things really bugged me

- Alfred (the butler) : his accent sounded really off at times. Im not sure if this is because of a particular background of the actor (cue mischa barton's strange english/american twang), but his speech would go from the thickness of an american accent, to the poshness of the british, and then at times (actually A LOT of the time which is immensely irritating), to the ockerness of the Aussie accent? *strange* and frustrating. I would've expected a very even posh accent, such as Niles from the Nanny :) hehe

- Bruce Wayne's HUGE body : Now, I understand that superheroes, especially those that don jet black structured costumes with outlines of pecs, should undoubtedly be quite built (except for scrawny little spiderman), but this guy's body was just huge. The scenes when he's lying in bed and gets up, his triceps, his pecs, his shoulders - EVERYTHING - it just bulges. And not in a good way either :) haha. Yes, I analyse too much :)

But yes, please go see it if you're a superhero flicks person ;)

On other news, I went to see my course advisor today and she said that the computer printout must've been a glitch. I do have enough points to graduate at the end of the year (actually i could've last year) so i'm fine! *yay*. But after talking to her, I realized how much I love studying psychology, and how little I dont want to spend the rest of my life in a commerce field. So, I might actually consider taking up honours in psychology after I graduate.. because then i'd be doing something I enjoy, even if it takes longer to achieve :)

Also, I was reading "Focus" magazine which is about humanitarian aid and welfare, and it made me really want to get out there and help these people. So i thought to myself - what can i offer? Afterall, if im just a commerce graduate, I could perhaps market the aid programs, but essentially, Id love to have some sort of medical background to help those with little medical facilities around, and who cannot afford expensive operations. But of course, Im certainly not a doctor, and will not even attempt to be purely because I can't stand studying human biology that sort of thing. So, I was thinking that maybe I could use my psychology degree and when I have enough money to travel and help out on these aid missions, I could use it in some way to assist.

haha yes, im full of grand plans and missions. And i never do it. Hmm. Maybe I should set some goals and stick to it yeh?

Okay, Ive got an msu meeting to run off to now, and I'm out for xinmin's 22nd birthday tonight before she heads off to melbourne. :) Catcha later!
