I have no idea why good things are starting to happen so late into the year, when I am done with my A Levels (Tomorrow!).
Let me list them down for you.
- The Flourishing society here in Singapore is showing signs of recede from The Dark Age, I just hope it sustains.
- Nick "Mephistopheles" Burd has suggested a fucking kickass 1984 Package, which consists of the following paraphernalia. (I confirm the fact that Nick is God from this time onwards)
- 1984 Centennial Edition softcover book
- The 1984 movie (1984 version because the one from the 50s sucked hardcore)
- 1984 Essays
- The Newspeak Dictionary
- Grammar lessons for Newspeak
- Language lessons for Newspeak
- Dominic Muldowney's "The Music of Oceania" (1984's film score; all of these songs were in 1984 as far as I know)
- Eurythmics' "For The Love Of Big Brother" (1984 soundtrack; none of the songs on this CD ever featured in the movie)
- Detailed information on themes/organizations/people from 1984
- An Orwell biography/information on him
- Invitations to Newspeak Dictionary forums, and various other websites/fan clubs like Orwelltoday.com or Newspeak.com/.org
- Winners of the Newspeak Award, similar to the BB award, but this time, awarded to people, governments, and organizations guilty of doublethink, Newspeak, and general arseness.
- 1984 Centennial Edition softcover book
I am most excited about my freedom though. I shall take a picture of my JC notes lumped together once my last paper is done. =) Keep a look on that.
Oh! I watched a damn funny show a few nights ago. Called "Dogma", directed by Kevin Smith, recommended by Vika, now I recommend it to you. Search it up on Youtube, someone kind enough uploaded the entire movie there. =)
Speaking about films, I also watched 'Your Name is Justine" 2 days ago. Rather decent show, although I was not heavily impressed by it, it does have its moments. It has a tinge of Kafkaesque confinement quality, reminded me of Oldboy in that sense. And of course, a hint of De Sade, obvious from the film name - Justine. Haha. Not too bad, considering I watched it free, I had a movie pass. ^^
Legions, give me a call, ask me out anytime tomorrow onwards. I will be available for stoning, slacking around town, monologue-listening, emo talk, window shopping, bookstore browsing, Landmark hogging (for flourishers), meal-get-togethers, night walks, odd place tours, whatever! Just ask me out. Hehe.
Later, LingNemesis!
