Rupert Grint
Rupert Grint, or like to be known as Rupey or Rupe or Weaselby by Princess Siti Grint, was born on Wednesday 24th August 1988. That makes him 17 years, 10 months and blah blah blah days and blah blah blah hours and blah blah blah seconds. He was plunged into the world of movies and fame and stardom when he was only 11 years old acting as the very famous Ron Weasley (yes, not only Harry Potter is famous, so is his best friend Ron). After his brilliant role as Ron in the first Harry Potter movie, Philosopher's Stone, he was casted as the permed-haired young scientist wannabe in Thunderpants. As he grew up, more girls have been queuing up to propose to him (okay, so maybe just me). After rave reviews of his brilliant acting in Goblet of Fire (some said that he almost stole the limelight from Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson), he acted as Ben in Driving Lessons and the movie has been chosen to play in Tribeca Film Festival and Cannes Film Festival. Right now, he's shooting the fifth Harry Potter installment. Though Ron is very dorky and sometimes not so brave and can be quite an idiot and has an emotional range of a teaspoon, the only similarities between Rupert and Ron are fear of spiders and big family. Rupert is unique. He rode the unicycle and played the Australian aborigines instrument thingy called didgeridoo. If he's not an actor, I bet he'll be good in Cirque de Soleil. Haha! But he's like any normal teenager; he loves to build model aeroplanes and play golf (heard he's really good at it).
Famous quote from Rupert: “Being famous is wicked. But it's better to be normal.” (PSG's Note: Good on ya, Rupe!)

Jake Gyllenhaal
You can say that Jake is one lucky chap. He's born on 19th December 1980 into a family of talented people; his father is Stephen Gyllenhaal (Director), his mother is Naomi Foner-Gyllenhaal (Screenwriter) and his sister is Maggie Gyllenhaal (Actress). His god-mother is Jamie-Lee Curtis and he was taught to drive by family friend, Paul Newman. He started as a child actor in City Slickers alongside Billy Crystal. Then he appeared in films such as Josh and S.A.M and Dangerous Woman. He then got his first starring role as Homer Hickman in the heart-warming story of an aspiring rocket scientist in October Sky (I cried my eyes out watching this movie). Later, he starred in other films opposite famous and well-respected actors like Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon (Moonlight Mile); Chris Cooper (Jarhead and October Sky); Dennis Quaid (The Day After Tomorrow); Jennifer Aniston (The Good Girl); Anthony Hopkins and Gwyneth Paltrow (Proof); Jamie Foxx (Jarhead). Currently, he has done filming Zodiac as a cartoonist, Robert Graysmith who searched for an infamous serial killer in San Francisco (think Jack the Ripper). He has won accolades for his role in cult movie, Donnie Darko and Oscar-nominated movie, Brokeback Mountain where he starred as a gay cowboy named Jack Twist. He loves to cook (and good at it too!) and read. He loves Harry Potter (like me) and has named his two dogs Atticus and Boo after his favourite book, To Kill A Mockingbird.
Famous quote from Jake: “First, it's ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?', then it's ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!', then ‘Get me someone who looks like Jake Gyllenhaal!', and then it's ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?'. Right now, I'm between ‘Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?' and ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!'.” (PSG's Note: Right now, I think it's ‘Get me Jake Gyllenhaal!'. No more in betweens!)

Paul Twohill
Paul is a 17-year-old Singapore Idol 2 contestant who has won many hearts of the young generation and also some girls with his emo-rock style and his wacky weird personality and some do like his weird wacky hairdo that is similar to Addams Family. Addams Family or not, he has the talent so much so that he's now through to the Top 12 of Singapore Idol 2. Before he stepped into the limelight, he was in Catholic High School where he was in a rock band named Ecnerret (Terrence spelled backwards) and has won Catholic High Music Awards 2004 in the rock band category. So far, in the competition, he has sang 3 Doors Down's Here Without You and made one female contestant cried and another male contestant to vote for him 3 to 4 times and not thought for one second to vote for himself. Even though he's wacky, loves to laugh at the peanut butter jar at his home and wants to rampage Toys R Us if the world ends tomorrow, his personal goal in life is quite a serious matter: “Make it big one day doing what I love.” And not just that, one of the things that will make him nervous is “when my voice is having a real bad day because I start to feel that I won't put up a show that is up to standard.” Another one thing to know about him: He has three Friendster accounts now cos two of his accounts has reached the maximum limit of 1000. That's how many friends and fans he has. And he has a fansite made for him by Arshanti at Paul Twohill Fansite.
Famous quote from Paul: “You smell pretty!” (PSG's Note: Aww, thank you Paul! I bet you smell pretty too, though you're somewhere in Singapore and I'm somewhere in Singapore too and we're both quite apart. Heheh!)

Gale Harold
You can say that Gale is my inspiration. Unlike most actors and actresses out there, he started acting late at the age of 28. He was born on July 10, 1969 in Georgia, US of A, which makes him a Cancerian like yours truly. Whoopie! Before he started acting, he was a carpenter and loves and restores Italian motorcycles. Wahey, I love motorcycles too! When he was younger, he acquired a diploma and under a soccer scholarship to begin a Liberal Arts Degree in Romance Literature at American University in Washington , D.C. However, because of some “creative differences” with his coach, he left the capital to study Fine Arts at San Francisco Arts Institute. However, that didn't last long too cos he squandered his academic scholarship and forced to make other plans. Oh Gale! Since he loves Italian motorcycles so much, that led him to several years of restoring and pants-set mechanics with Moto Guzzi motorbikes. So, you're probably wondering: “Man, when will this guy start acting?” Well, you don't have to wait for long cos in 1997, on the brink of financial exile from San Francisco , he was urged by his compatriot Suzy Landau, producer for Francis Ford Coppola (Dracula & Tucker) to take his act to the stage. After being introduced to actor and director Joan E. Scheckel, he re-located to Los Angeles , beginning an intensive 3-year period of dramatic study and exploration. This led him to his theatrical debut as Bunny in Me and My Friend. He also made his feature debut as Booker in 36K. Then he was accepted and completed the Actor's Conservatory Program with A Noise Within classical theatre company. There he appeared in productions like Misanthrope and Cymbeline. Then, he got his breakthrough role as the unapologetic and brutally honest gay Brian Kinney in Queer As Folk which made me love him. Currently, he's acting in Vanished alongside Ming Na as Agent Graham Kelton.
Famous Quote from Gale: “You have to like your character, because if you don't, no one else will either.” (PSG's Note: Wahey, that surely works cos no matter how bitchy Brian Kinney is, I still love that guy! Other than the fact that he has nice ass and very sexy! Hahaha!)

... Kites Fly High ...

Kites fly high
Up in the sky
Boundless and free
For everyone to see
Kites fly high
Up in the sky
Colorful and bright
Graceful and light
Kites fly high
Up in the sky
With a swish
I made a wish

Kites fly high
Up in the sky
I wish you were here
To hold me dear

Hehe… I was inspired to write the poem when I was flying kites on Wednesday with Arlianny, Cylysce and Gwen. It was great fun! I never fly a kite before so it was kind of an ‘adventure’. We went to Marina Bay Park or something and fly kites on a hot Wednesday afternoon. Thank God for the sea breeze, the kites fly high. If not for the breeze, I don’t think the kites could fly looking at the weather that day. It was scorching hot!

Cylysce took lots of pictures of us flying kites. It was hilarious! I actually accidentally tore off a tail of one of the kites. Poor kite! Haha! But there are a lot of useful things you can do with a tail. That tail made Cylysce our future fashion designer. Yes, and I was the model of the day! With the tail, Cylysce made a really good design actually out of my plain white T-shirt. You can also make a scarf out of the tail. Yes, a fashionable one. You can also become ala Avril Lavigne – tie and all. And last but not least, you can ‘grow’ your own tail with it! Haha!

But the real adventure of the day was when we… drum roll please… we walked all the way from Marina to Millenia Walk! Okay, all right, everyone can faint now! I can imagine you thinking right now: “You walked from Marina to Millenia Walk under a scorching hot sunny weather?” Yes, believe it or not! By the time, we reached Millenia Walk, people were looking at us as if we were back from some marathon or something. Arlianny felt that her shoes had melted. I thought I was from Sahara Desert and back. Cylysce thought she became blacker but of course, she didn’t; she’s just tanner. And Gwen didn’t complain cos it was her idea. Haha! I was so thirsty I finished the whole large Ice Lemon Tea from Long John Silvers. I was THAT thirsty plus I had my period, so it made it worse. And when Gavyn called Cylysce, I joined in the conversation. I told him the real deal and of course, being the lamer he is, he said: “Siti, I know that both Marina and Millenia Walk starts with M but it’s very far leh.” Trust him to come up with that! Haha!

After having our lunch, we walked to Esplanade. We went to the library cos Cylysce wanted to return a book. But of course, we went in and enjoyed the air-con and watched the TV with theatre stuffs. It has four TV sets in a circle and each of us took one each and with backs against each other, we enjoyed each other’s comfort and watched theatre. Everyone who walked pass were all looking at us like we were a bunch of crazy kids. Then again, we are! Haha!

Then we went to see this beautiful art piece on display. It’s called Puzzled Clouds by a Korean artist. It has puzzles hanging above on the ceiling. It’s kind of intriguing, I must say. It says that it represents the parallel world of dreams and reality. I looked at it trying to understand it. Do !? Well, you may say so! I mean, the puzzles are all over the ceilings. You see them and you know what it is (dreams). But you know you can’t touch it and you can’t solve the puzzle no matter how hard you try to (reality). Okay, that was my take on the art piece.

After that we lazed around at the Esplanade for a moment, looking at the pictures Cylysce took. Then we went back home not before I bought myself another drink. I know, I know! But I was thirsty! I went back home with a bloated stomach! Haha!

Oh well, I had lots of fun! We have to have fun before we start working! Cos like my cousins say: “Working is a bore you wish you are back in school!” Haha!

Rock ‘n’ Roll Always!

Princess CT aka Rocker Chick

P.S: Liverpool will be the European Champions again under the hands of Rafael Benitez! We have Stevie G, Hamann, Carragher, Baros, Cisse, Garcia, Alonso, Finnan, Risse, Biscan, Traore, Kewell and Dudek to take on Europe! Watch out, Milan! You’re too much like Chelsea! And what happened to Chelsea? The Blues sang the blues and the Reds came marching in with victory!
