Excert from my reflection on last semester's blog project



Reflection on Blogging Project
This semester I’ve been assigned to do an interesting project - to set up a blog written in English. The theme of it is not designated, I was only asked to first write a proposal and stick to it while I’m posting in the future. What appeals to me most is that I’m allowed to decide my own topic for the blog, because inspiration comes to me very “randomly,” when I’m writing something relevant to my life or interest, I’m able to come up with lots of ideas; on the other hand, I often have difficulty even think of a draft when a subject that is too general or vague is assigned to me.
During the process of this project, I’ve discovered that I’m actually good at making up stories. For instance while posting a review of a film I’ve watched, though I indeed love that film, I find it hard to convince my audiences to watch it too by simply saying “I like the film so much” or “It’s awesome!!” Instead I’d use very descriptive words to introduce the plot or the funny parts in a film. It seems that I’m writing something not genuine, yet they’re truly my opinions.
So far, I’m rather satisfied with what I’ve done with the blog. Not only does serve as an avenue for me to express my thoughts, but it also helps me to sharpen my writing skills. And I’m glad I’ve chosen a topic which is already part of my life, so that I could share with other people some of my favourite issues. However if there’s the chance to have another project similar to this, though I do love films, I’d want to write something more unique and creative because there are already too many blogs on the Internet that revolve around the same topic as mine. Even my friends would sometimes post their own film reviews on their blogs. As one of my posts indicates, I may want to share some information about queer hotspots in the local areas, such as featured shops, gay bars, special events taking place in Kaohsiung or Tainan and details like price and environment/experience. I’m believe it’s be a lot of fun and it could provide foreign visitors useful guidance to these mysterious yet attractive sites.



Well, wait and see!!

Trailer: Confessions of a Shopaholic

It's the same-titled film based on one of my favourite books recently, scheduled to be released in February 2009.


About the story? Well, the title has already told you...

It'd be better to read the book yourself, since it's so hilarious and without difficult wording.

Here's the paperback one I've got:


Also the movie tie-in edition would be out soon,featuring Isla Fisher on the cover, so you may get that one if you don't buy it now.


I've been noticing this film since this June and I'm still looking forward to it. It's brilliant that the trailer is finally out. To be honest I was a bit disappointed when I've learnt a)the setting would be in NY instead of London, and b)it's by Disney, because I've imagined this to be more like Bridget Jones's Diary or at least The Devil Wears Prada. Well now I've come to accept that fact.


Speaking of the leading actress, Isla Fisher [pronounced eye-lah, silent "s"], you may remember the sluttish, silly and funny younger sister in Wedding Crashers(2006), or that witty xerox girl in Definitely, Maybe(2008). Okay, she did show that she's capable of making people laugh as well as being sensible and sophisticated. Now move on to the other leading character, Luke the entrepreneur, portrayed by Hugh Dancy, well, I've never heard of him before, but he's British and he looks sexy in the video, ha ha!
