A new beginning...

Thought of moving to Blogger a few days ago. Made the move just now.
Lots of things to be settled and posts to be moved from my old presence...
But a new beginning is always great.

The Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture. Critics' opinion vs popular choice.

I don't watch many awards shows. I only watch those with Taylor Swift on (you know, I'm a big fan of her); most of the times music shows. This is the first time I've seen a film awards show live. Well there must be something there for me isn't it? Taylor is again nominated for Best Original Song. Given she's only an occasional actress, being nominated for a Golden Globe for a song/score category is a big deal and I'm quite interested. The nominees for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture are: Atlas, from The Hunger Games: Catching Fire; Let It Go, from Frozen; Ordinary Love, from Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom; Please Mr. Kennedy, from Inside Llewyn Davis; Sweeter Than Fiction, from One Chance. And the winner is, Ordinary Love, from Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom. Quite deserving, I guessed. After all just looking at the nominees, not just the songs but the artists behind them and the films they represent, I figured it would be difficult for Taylor to...

1st June is a special day for a lot of people. For kids, it's International Children's Day. For a selected few, probably the first day of work when it comes to summer internships and stuff. For me, it's the end of many responsibilities and the start of new ones. Talking about responsibilities, there hasn't been any year with more to handle than the previous academic year. Two main comm posts including one of the highest of positions, plus the occasional other commitments. It was stressful, it was tiring, but nonetheless it was extremely fulfilling. This series of numbers serve as a reminder of how great a year it has been. And it starts with a very familiar one. 15, for 15 minutes, and for #vnntu15 Little did I know that a decision made with 15 minutes remaining before the nomination deadline would have such a profound impact on my life. I'm thankful to everyone who have given me the opportunity to care a whole awful lot for this community. And I reserve the gre...

Lots of things going on at the moment, Phần 2: 2/9 (phần 3)

Tiếp tục truyền thống một note tiếng Việt sau mỗi 2/9. 2/9 của năm 3 có khác gì năm 2 và năm 1 ? Ngày đầu tiên sau 2/9 luôn là ngày để dành cho nhau những lời cảm ơn cũng như những lời xin lỗi chân thành nhất. Lần thứ ba liên tiếp làm 2/9 với tư cách organiser, chưa bao giờ được thật sự "thưởng thức" 2/9 nhưng vì rất nhiều lí do khác nhau mình luôn "enjoy" 2/9, như là một event đặc biệt nhất trong các event đặc biệt. Mà event đặc biệt thì luôn dành cho những con người đặc biệt. Đặc biệt nhất với mình thì luôn là BCH XV. Hầu hết những gì mình muốn nói trong lúc speech thì mình đã nói ra, vấn đề là mình chưa bao giờ chuẩn bị được cái speech nào hoàn hảo cả (lỗi này thì cả mình và Duy Lê đều dính, hai anh em lúc intermission chỉ có ngồi nhìn nhau cười và bảo nhau là tí nữa lên chém gió thôi =)), mà không chuẩn bị thì có những thứ muốn nói nhưng sẽ không nói được. Đơn giản như chuyện... hai năm liên tiếp quên không chúc mừng sinh nhật VPI Hải trên sân khấu (may là m...
