Rated R

Review:

This is the latest album by Rhianna.

Rated R definitely suits the content and the sound of this album. This is also the first time that Rhianna uses explicit lyrics in her songs.

The album is the darkest work she has done yet. It might be also be her best album despite not having mega hits like "Umbrella". Sound of the album is rock-influenced and rough. It suits the "angry" mood for Rhianna.

This album is about Rhianna unleashing the "beast within" her to a more hardcore type compared to her girl next door and pop image as evident in her previous albums.

Rating: 4/5

Success

I am so happy that my youngest brother became the TOP student of his class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He used to be a dilly-dally lazy dude who could not care more about his studies which was same as my case when i was a primary student.

We gave him a personal tutor which is an experienced teacher who is patient and willing to teach and explain to him slowly. Many thanks to Mdm Teo for leading my brother to succeed.

My dad used to say: Determination and self-discipline can show you the doors of success. How true is that.

Congratulations to my brother!!!!!!!. I am so proud of you.:)

Tired

I have not been interested in anything recently.....

It felt like i have no motivation to study hard and focus well. Could it be that i am stressed up over the upcoming driving test in 2 weeks? i just feel mentally drained and wished that the test can swiftly and successfully past through.


What's more is that i have an important reflection test this Friday.

Curse of Fame

What is making celebrity news lately is regarding continued anger towards R&B star Chris Brown assault on Rihanna.

It's time to get over the unhappy episode. Some are really narrow-minded.

I feel that this is the way media work to sell gossips of the stars around. I am a fan of Chris Brown's music and i am one of those who recognizes artistic value of artists. He makes great and enjoyable music and is gonna release his new album on December 8th. He is reaching out to more genres to make sure that he has no ceiling above himself.

His new single I Can Transform Ya has been hitting the charts worldwide and received good response from fans and critics. I have seen some of the criticisms made on Youtube's comment boxes are really derogatory. It makes me wanna puke.

He had apologized countless time for the incident. This certainly does not mean he has to apologize every time when he is on national television, that is humiliating for any person. He even went to the extent of making apologetic songs specially crafted for Rihanna.

Humans make mistakes and everyone is entitled to moments of anger.

PS: Let Chris Brown keep some of his pride.

Momentum Buildup

Next week will be the official release of the highly anticipated Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2.

It will also be my birthday this Sunday and nothing will be better than to get my hands on new headphones and the game.

Coincidentally, my dad is purchasing a new desktop soon and i hope will be a high definition monitor and excellent graphics card for gaming.

School's been quite relaxing as we do not have big projects and just presentations. But the modules are highly theoretical.

3 more weeks to my driving test, i MUST clear it at one go!!!!!.
