Damn. Having a few assignments at a time is like having a serial killer after you which limits your ability to do all the things you want. 2 assignments are scheduled for submission next week. The first one is the weekly marketing assignment on Tuesday, followed up closely by Law assignment on Wednesday. Then, there is also another assignment for Accounting which needs to be submitted before 23rd of September. Just another 2 weeks of sufferings then I'll have a week of holiday. Yeap, that keeps motivating me.

Attended Adeline's farewell dinner party yesterday in the Lake (House) Club. I'm not to say that close to her, but separation is a difficult fact to face. These are the times when true friendship are reflected. Well, we have been friends since Form 2 I think, since we were in the same class. Since Form 4, although we enrolled into different streams where she went for Science and I ventured into Commerce, we bonded well under Interact Club. She has the down to earth, active and outgoing personality. She's smart. A good debator. And masters languages really well. She'll be leaving for UK to pursue Law. All the best to her and have a fun time there.

Fashion Rocks 2006

Fashion Rocks took place on Friday where it is dubbed a show where fashion meets music perfectly. Well, here's a short recap of the show.

Red Carpet

Jon Bon Jovi and his family brought a little bit of class to the table.


I'm lovin it. Now that Carmen Electra is single, she's looking all glamorous.


I'm not diggin into this one. Christina's wardrobe bores me at times. But at least since Dirrty, she has shown less skin than usual.


Fergie -Fer in the house y'all. What happened to her usual hip hop style?


Mischa Barton looking a tad hundrum.


Although not spectacular, simplicity works perfectly fine on Eva Mendes.


Hmm...


Denise Richards is certainly one of the best dressed entertainers to that show. Her dress is intelligibly perky and cute.


Rihanna stormed the crowd with this gorgeous dress.


Nelly Furtado is just looking a lot more feminine in a bad way these days.


The Dolls were a mess at the red carpet.

Performances


Elton John joined the Black Eyed Peas here. First, all of them performed Here I Am. Then, the stage cleared up for the London Bridge by Fergie before the rest of the members of BEPs joined her for another round of Pump It! Loved the performance. :)


Elton John teaming up with Christina Aguilera to create a soulful, boring performance of Bennie and the Jets.


Luckily, Baby Jane brought the show together again with her seems to be 2nd single, Candyman. That song is a great party starter.


Nelly Furtado stomped the stadium with the infectious tunes of Promisnous and Maneater. Anyone would argue that she stole the limelight of the show. Well, the performance was somehow stellar. However, it looked as if her style was influenced by Fergie.


With many hot performances, we surely need an S.O.S. from Rihanna. The performance was deliberately impressive. Still, her stylo was a bit off when induced with the song.


This is the performance of the night. It's just great to find Beyonce rocking the stage differently each and everytime she performs. It was a stunning, vigorous and agressive performance of Deja Vu that features bananas and twisted vocals! After watching it, a collaboration between Shakira and Beyonce should be made.


Nicole and her back up dancers, or shall I say the Pussycat Dolls heated up the crowd too. Nicole had some vocal problems in my opinion, and so an unknown member of the group replaced her towards the end where the song reaches the high notes. However, compared to Nicole, she did a rather bad rendition.


Rihanna returned with a much better dress in white to collaborate with Elton John. Here she looked much like the ever famous supermodel, Tyra Banks except that she's a size smaller. Then, the Pussycat Dolls joined in to contribute to the last song of the night before officially ending the show.

Movie updates: Snakes on a Plane thrilled most of the audiences at GSC as it sits right atop of the chart for week ending 6 September 2006. The runner up title belongs to Vettaiyadu Vilaiyaadu which I have no idea what the movie is about. Beneath Still Waters captured a satisfactory amount of moviegoers debuting at no. 6. With early shows, Little Man had a premature entry at lucky no. 8. Having similar debut is My Super Ex-Girlfriend at no. 9. My Name is Fame which was released on the 31st of August showed weak performance as it closed the chart at no. 10.

Music updates: Justin Timberlake collected his UK, US and Global #1 single this week with his 1st single, Sexy Back from his sophomore album. New CDs in stores includes albums from Jessica Simpson, Outkast and Beyonce (which I had already puchased one copy!).
