School of Rock

Last December, there were 2 trailers from 2 movies both about teachers, running around on TV. Both of the movies was hitting the cinema in Singapore at the same time, December 31. You should know what I'm talking about. One is Monalisa's Smile and the other one is School of Rock. I found out about Monalisa's Smile before I found out School of Rock. I was actually thinking of watching Monalisa's Smile rather than School of Rock, because I didn't really find Jack Black's band Tenacious D to be nice? Maybe, I just didn't get his music. Anyway the trailer for School of Rock was so funny, it won my heart. So I went to watch School of Rock today

When I found out that Monalisa's Smile is about a teacher who inspires her students, well I was thinking, okay...it's must be something like Dead Poet's Society but the female version. So I was wondering if School of Rock is something like Dead Poet's Society with a Rockin' Roll style. Well...Maybe in a way it is true. The teacher, so-called Mr. S (I can't spell the last name too), inspires his students to do something different from what they know, from what everybody expect them to do. Something different from their so-called schedule in life, something that bring out the fire in them, or to be politically correct something that bring out the rock out of them. The movie is way cool I am amazed at how well the kids were doing. They rock!!! Jack Black did a good job too, I think it's because rock is something very personal to him, so it's not hard for him to relate to his character and no wonder for that Golden Globe Nomination. For anyone who haven't watched it....Go!!! You will laugh a lot. The music is cool, the story is okay, Jack Black and the kids are funny, they will amaze you. The movie even has a smart ending. It will keep you stay seated until all the credit title has finished

Today's assignment : KICK SOME ASS!

finally a little bit of sun and blue sky and it's most probably the only one I would get here - side note: feel quite sad about Pope Francis, such an inspiration to be humble and down to earth :(

knocked my tea all over the table, but a girl quickly came to help me clean up and even said sorry about my tea - it gives me hope about these kids

from the poem 大阿蘇 (おおあそ) by 三好達治 (みよしたつじ): もしも百年が この一瞬の間にたったとしても 何の不思議もないだろう that line is just ... it stucks with me
