The weekend has not ended but I feel that at 3 in the morning on a Sunday, it is pretty much nearing its end. Of course, Sunday is a nice full day that you can fill with exciting activities like rock climbing, or jogging, or shopping, but Sunday is essentially just known as the day before Monday to me. And Mondays, I don’t like.

I love Tetris, and I kick ass at it. And yesterday was Tetris day! I feel like I should had played a few games to celebrate, but I didn’t know about the day until it was over. The Google Tetris logo was cute though.

Tweeted about this earlier, but theauteurs.com has made my films-to-watch list explode with joy. From the site: “The Auteurs is the fastest growing online destination for lovers of independent, foreign and classic film; an online cinema, anytime, anywhere.” Like, uh huh. YES. And then a whole load of ecstatic emoticons. Granted that there aren’t that many films available for viewing in Singapore yet, but that is certainly promising.

(By the way, as a sort of disclaimer or whatever you may choose to deem it, contrary to what some may believe, I don’t necessarily just watch art house, indie, or foreign films. I like good films, and sometimes they fall into those mentioned categories. I like my movies entertaining, and I like them smart without being obtuse. And with intelligent dialogue. And with humour. And with no monosyllabic beefy guys in racing cars. And with no cheesy love story involving a scene with a flock of white doves that will suddenly swoop up at you when you’re contemplating a sacrificial suicide. Apart from those criteria, I am pretty much quite easy-going when it comes to movies.)

Watched ‘After Life’ on the site this afternoon (I liked it, though not as much as ‘Still Walking’). Seeing that it was a Saturday afternoon, the streaming was relatively decent – I left it to load for an hour before I started to watch – and the quality was equivalent to a HQ Youtube video. Screencaps below:

The only gripe I had was the sound. It was a tad soft, but I guess turning the volume dial higher isn’t gonna need a whole lot of effort.
