Few hours to go before the ceremony begins and here I am making some quick predictions on the winner for the movies category:
Best Motion Picture - Drama
Social Network: It exceeds expectations from the audiences and critics with its story and strong performance. Not forgetting a fine work by David Fincher. The King's Speech might be a crowd pleaser, but it lacks its appeal to the audience. It is time to award the best picture to the movie which is critcally and financial acclaimed!!
Best Actress - Drama
Natalie Portman for Black Swan - Boy oh boy....i don't know how to describe her performance because she is outstanding in every sense and every angle. It is time for her to be recognised as a good actress as she was snubbed a few times. From slimming down to intensive training for ballet to powerful performance, she deserve it.
Best Actor - Drama
Colin Firth - The King's Speech
He was snubbed last year though he was damn great in A single man. But now he is back and this time he plays King George. This is an uphill challenge as it is not easy to emulate a King. Well, Hellen Mirren scored an Oscar for The Queen, so Colin Firth might just nick it.
James Franco is outstanding in 127 hours, who knows, he might just snatched it again from Colin Firth
Best Motion Picture - Comedy
The Kids Are Alright - Outstanding film comes with original plots and not forgetting daring and powerful performance, they deserve to win it. I don't see any other films deserve it.
Best Actress - Comedy
Annette Benning - The Kids Are Alright
It is hard to choose between her and Julianne Moore as they produce daring performance. To get an award, you must be daring (look back to all the previous winners!). Well, Anne Hathaway is daring enough in Love and Other Drugs, but the movie was critically panned. Let's hope that she will wins it.
Best Actor - Comedy
Jake Gyllenhaal - Love and Other Drugs
Powerful and daring performance. Has great chemistry with the opponent. Well done!
No time for comment. Just the winners for the below categories.
Best Supporting Actress
Amy Adams - The Fighter
Best Supporting Actor
Christian Bale - The Fighter
Best Animated Feature
Toy Story 3
Best Foreign Language Film
I Am Love
Best Director
David Fincher - The Social Network (Man...I hope Darren Aronofsky wins as well)
Best Screenplay
Aaron Sorkin - The Social Network
Best Original Score
Hans Zimmer - Inception ( I hope that A.R. Rahman will win for 127 Hours)
Best Song
Bound to You - Burlesque
That's all for now and do check out the winner list tomorrow...
Bye!!

Year 2010: From an average to student to the owner of a new house...
Wow, looking at my last blog, it was already like 9 months ago...I have no idea how things moved so fast in the next 9 months....Even me..myself can't imagine things can move that fast...
Looking back on the year of 2010, I was having a slow start as I was affected by my sub-par examination result as well as my eczema problems...At that time, I thought that it would be a bad year for me and things got worse when I was about to extend my length of my studies for another 1 year which really pushed me to the very low point of my life.
But things get a little bit better when I was given a chance to finish off my studies without extend my studies to a year with a little bit of gamble that I would have to take extra subjects. I was struggling for the entire semester as I would have to repeat the subject I failed two years ago as well as taking additional subject which I hate the most...With efficient effort and praying for a smooth sailing in my exam, my prayers was answered as I passed all the subjects.
I was given green lit that I could do cross institutional studies which I will be working full time and study for the one last subject at the same time. At that moment, I questioned my ability which I am not sure if I could really go through with it. If i fail it, I might need to fly back and study. I never thought too much but enrolled in it. I flew back to Malaysia and I work and study at the same time.
I will take that as my first full time job and I was given the post as the executive supervisor. For the first two weeks, I had nothing much to do and I was wondering how am I going to past through the time....few weeks later, I was given projects that I have to handle by myself and I was dumbfounded when I was given a list of about 40 projects that I have to handle. Luckily I have my colleague that helped me and gave me some useful knowledge to tackle the problem. At night, I would hide myself in the room and study. For the past few months, I have no idea what the hell I was studying. I was clear about the concept, but I could not really the assignments and tutorial questions. I was under enormous pressure when my parents decided to book the flight ticket back to Hobart for my graduation even though I haven't sit for the exam. I have no choice but to excel in my exam and thank God that I pass the exam and I manage to graduate.
I was in sigh of relief as if I can feel that I have put down a huge burden and I can fully concentrate in my work. Then I had a 10 days break which I managed to get back to the beautiful Hobart as well as Melbourne. I managed to catch up with my friends and had a lot of fun. Before the year ends, I was given an opportunity to buy a property. I made up my mind to buy it in 4 days. I know it is a bit exaggerate on the process on buying it but yea, I manage to run through a deal and signed the property contract on the last day of 2010.
It was an amazing year for me and I am really glad that things has been going through very will for me. I appreciate what God has given me and given me the ability and strength to make some critical decision which might chance or affect my little part of life. I really hope to have a nice year for this year and wishing everyone especially the readers all the best as well as best of luck.
