movie mania

yay, it's off today :) had a night out with nich lee yesterday and we caught Wall Street, Money Never Sleeps.. a movie that was long, and frankly speaking not very exciting.. it's all about money and it just shows how ugly people can get when they're all caught up with earning and getting money..

it's kinda boring but still it's ok, i'm giving it a 2 out of 5..

today's book in day but will be catching this movie: The Other Guys with Gareth, and whoever he's called, hahaha, i'm a follower today :P

it's been sometime since i got full charge in terms of sleep, from saturday afternoon after the epic graduation till sunday morning.. how shiok! hahaha, ok time to get ready to head out ;D

Light bulb..

Yoo hoo :)

Just came home from my very first ever driving practical lesson! hahahaha.. so fun.. thankfully the instructor was a nice guy and he taught me patiently.. I think i did pretty well for my first lesson.. I didn't panic or whatever.. but i definitely still need more practice.. i drove like a tortoise today like forever at gear 1.. hahaha.. but it was fun.. hopefully i'll get it soon ;)

so booking in on a Monday morning was awesome! It totally feels like the week isn't gonna be as long and somehow I felt really refreshed.. I think i'm definitely gonna book in on Monday morning instead.. only problem, it's kinda far and cab fare often amounts to quite a huge sum.. poor me.. so this week I finally had a movie night with the HQ peeps..

http://www.moviexclusive.com/review/despicableme/despicableme.html

Despicable Me was a totally cute movie.. there was so much cuteness in the show.. for most who has seen the trailer will surely remember the part where Agnes (the youngest girl) hitting her cheeks making plok plok plok noises asking if it's annoying.. damn cute!! other memorable were the phases by Agnes: 'It's so fluffy i'm gonna die! ' and Gru (the main character)'s ' Light bulb!'

The minions (the little yellow creatures) were also damn cute, squeaking and squabbling like little kids.. hilarious.. Totally overdosed with the movie cuteness, i'm giving it a 4 out of 5 :) it's funny and it gives the heart a fuzzy feeling.. a great movie for the family.. Go catch it ;)

time to think, read and celebrate..

Clearly I don't have to say more what the movie of the week is!

IRONMAN IRONMAN! IRONMAN IRONMAN!

Starring:

Ms Potts

War Machine

Black Widow whao!

Whiplesh

and clearly IRONMAN!!!!


so the story was great and i'm definately giving it like 5/5.. furthermore, the little snippet at the end of the show after the credits just blew my mind.. i'm waiting for the next movie marvel's giving.. it's gonna be awesome! I'm saying it could be the best movie of the year ;) I think there should be more action from Black widow thou and the baddie died so quickly.. ok i'm adjusting my rating, 4.5/5 :P

Besides movie of the week, it's also the high week this week because my work goes full swing and i'm always busy.. being AO and ATO ain't easy.. we've to deal with so many ppl and our efforts are always overlooked.. o well.. this is when my mind comes in, i must always remember that: It doesn't really matter who sees how much you do or what you do, what matters most is that you know that you've done it for you.. because ultimately, does it really matter if anyone feels anything for you and you don't feel anything for yourself?

ok shit that ' it' moment.. so i've received like 6 magazines in my post this week.. Discovery, Readers' Digest, Pioneer, Newsweek, some Temesek club mag and another army magazine.. OMG, seriously how much can I read? hahahaah.. it's funny just arriving at home, going into my room and seeing so many magazines piled on my desk.. ever since commissioning, I've always been receiving letters and stuff on my desk everytime I reach home, it makes my feel old : S

Today's also Mothers' Day, so HAPPY MOTHERs' DAY!!!

the start

the start of everything is always not easy, and similarly, sch4's atart up isn't easy as well.. but never the less, only a few can safely say that they've been involved in the setting up of a sch.. yay me! I'm gonna do my best and make sure everything will progress smoothly and ensure the smooth operation in the days to come :) it's kinda stressful, but I'm trying to keep it cool so I'll not get an outbreak hahahaah :S

So yesterday was kinda like my first 'cohesion' and we watched Ip Man 2 which happens to be the Mooo-vie of the week as well..



So it's a continuation from Ip man (which I didn't catch) but it's a different story altogether so it's ok if you didn't catch part 1.. The story goes early 1950s (if i remember right) and how the westerners came settling into HK and the show featured the westerners making a mockery of the HK people.. So the kong-fu masters were pissed off and the movie goes on to show how Ip man dealing with the situation..

I don't know If the story is actually a true event, but it came as a surprise to me that Ip man is actually a true person that coached Bruce Lee.. hahaa, and I thought it was all friction! Alright, not too bad, I'll give the movie 3.5 out of 5..

Well, a HK friend's in town, probably gotta meet him tonight or something.. till next week ;)

Catch somebody

http://au.news.yahoo.com/a/-/newshome/7100205/olympic-400m-champion-facing-doping-ban/

Looks like someone won't be running for a while.. tsk tsk.. anyway, the article has been headed wrongly, it says 'swim champion', it's more 'running champion'..

Anyway Happy Birthday to Jonny! :) yesterday was his day but I usually only blog on saturdays so ya.. Life has been boring! OMG, I'm going to start to plan for my birthday, I"m gonna come up with a guest list first and then find a suitable venue.. Maybe I should come up with a wishlist too :P Have been seeing lots of violence in the new over at Thailand as the days go by.. and then there's the ashes issue over in Europe.. All this unrest seem to point that the 2012 thingy may be true? haha, ok just saying ;) It's been boring and I'm trying to make it less for me.. Just think, what would Conan do? WWCD?

OK, this week we caught the movie Shutter Island starring Leonado DeCaprio.. It wasn't exactly my choice to watch the movie but it was the movie of the week anyway.. ok, so the story goes where this police dude goes onto an island and discovers creepy things within.. so ya, that's basically it.. I don't wanna spoilt the story for anyone here.. It's an interesting, intriguing and 'out of the box' kinda movie.. just makes you wonder , ponder and think and really think again..

I love the little line that's on some of it's promo posters: Some one's missing - at the end of the story, you'll truly find out that the lead character is the actual one that's missing.. interesting.. it'll lead you into thinking if you're insane as well.. so go catch it people, I'm giving it 4 out of 5.. There's too much unnecessary suspense though.. and I'm not a fan of suspense..

loving this holiday

i'm really happy that i'm having like a holiday now.. Marc was right, Christmas in the army sucks.. how i wish this holiday would never end :(

the past 3 days has been great.. i had lots of fun.. went ot the IT fair at EXPO with Sean, not Suntec and i only found out when i arrived at Suntec.. damn it.. hahaha.. but it was alright.. wanted to get a new camera but didn't.. i think i'm gonna get a itouch first.. but we'll see how.. yesterday was also a blast.. in the morning had time to play my DS, o ya, I think I've never mentioned but I got a DS about a month ago.. have been playing it since then.. and then went to meet my platoon mates and had a n awesome night at KUSHINBO! woo hoo! I can never get sick of that place.. it's always so good.. expecially the crabs.. can never get enough of 'em! then movie:

NINJA ASSASIN

A freakishly bloody movie with blood like every five mintues.. kinda retarded.. the effects were cool and all but there's just too much blood everywhere.. and the plot was just so predictable when you've grasp the story.. Not very interesting and i'm not gonna recommend it..

Night time was a rush back home to help settle Kendra's secondary school application, yes she's entering secondary.. and then over to Marc's place for a night of chillin with Shannon, Trinity and Mark Dave..

just got up and I don't wanna waste the day away.. so choos ;) and OMG it's December! time is really flying man..

damn

ok, my tummy hurts like mad right now but there's nothing I can do about it.. mum thinks it's stomach flu, i'm thinking HELP! hahahah. .It's been hurting since friday, something's wrong, i'm just gonna 'see how' when i book in today..

Friday night: a little outing with calvin.chee and rachael :)

Meet my new friend Storm doll :) cool right! hahaha, the first impulse was to get her! Storm rocks! WOo HOO!! Rachael thinks it's ugly, she's so wrong tsk tsk.. :X

Dinner was at Billy Bombers and I freaking found a discount coupon like a few hours ago.. damn!

MOOOO VIE- Cloudy with a chance of meatballs.

So it's this place that's craving for food besides sardines and when Flint (the main dude) creates this food machine, it gets out of hand and ya, chaos! There's also the 'hero's girl' who's an ex-geek who's a weather girl.. I also like this little kiddo that's just too cute to be missed hahahaa.. It's such a funny show, and I love the scene where the giant gummy bears were attacking their little plane, if only we had gummy bears as hugh as those :D i'm giving this movie :

We caught the show in 3D so we could have food fall on our faces hahaha, way cooler that way :)

o ya, yesterday was the mid-autumn festival, nothing interesting.. didn't even went to grand's house like I usually would.. instead I was playing left for dead with shali and hilmi at cini :) fun yo! hahaha.. o ya, I have to freaking complain.. 3 times in 1 week I spent more then half an hour searching for a freaking cab in tiwon, what?!?

this morning/noon was spent at town with calvin.. have not met one of my best friend in ages! so finally, we had lunch at this place called The Hard Burger at Raffles City.. Nice place, nice food, I enjoyed the lemonade mint drink, one of their specialty drink, check it out! I've to freaking book in today, (yes finally) and pro term's gonna start, choos to the world!

hi world!

Oh O Oh O, i'm OUT :) 2nd book out, feels awesome!

Just got back from HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE :)

AWESOME!!!! Caught it with Caryn, whom I had to ask to book the tickets hahahah.. selling like hotcakes.. and Emma Watson's smoking! O man, She's seriously hot ;P Because she's so hot, and the movie was actually great, i'm giving it:

It's missing half the star to be a perfect movie because I'm still missing some links from the show that I was kinda expecting.. But none the less, great show, BRAVO!

Last week, an update :) Xiao Han's Birthday and coincided with the first book out, grabbed photos from ww (thanks!) and it was a blast.. Dinner at Curry Flavour, and nights out at Timbre! I simply love that place, good band, nice atmosphere, and I simply love the Kamikaze Shots :P and pizza too!

and lots of photo whoring! hahahaha, i actually miss doing that :)

AND AND AND! I finally bought

THE

MARVEL

ENCYCLOPEDIA

:D please people, take time to Marvel at it.. Freaking cool! I've always wanted to get this book and I finally got it, it's the best encyclopedia ever :) woo hoo!

Damn it, gotta book in like in less then 24 hours time.. freak..

X-MEN Origin: Wolverine

WOO HOO!! I'm so cite! This movie is gonna be released soon and I can't wait to catch it like 5 times hopefully (since I'll be enlisted by then) I bet it's gonna be such a cool movie.. Here are some promo shots from the movie ;)

Main Characters include (compared against their 'original Marvel look'):

Deadpool:

Gambit:

Sabretooth:

Silverfox:

Wolverine:

So the pictures are a little slightly very pixelated(tried my best!), but you can still compare the diff between 'em.. There's also this character called John Wraith, a mutant with the ability to teleport.. Played by will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas.. It's gonna be cool! There's also other characters like Blob and Cyclops that's gonna appear too! Yay!

More peeks!

My favourite to look out for now is definitely Gambit, he's probably the most hyped about mutant to appear on big screen.. After all, he IS the coolest mutant besides Storm :D CATCH IT WHEN IT'S AT YOUR NEAREST THEATRE!!

Mooovie: Street Fighter-The Legend of Chun Li

Tomorrow's Swift meet is cancelled so no race for me! haha cool.. so anyway, met Caryn today at Vivo after not meeting her for so long - she got into NUS Business School! hahaah congrats :)

Caught The Chun Li movie today and it's awesome.. The show could use a little more connections in between each scene or try to introduce the characters more.. and there's a good share of the characters, there's Chunli (d'oh), and Nash, Balrog,Bison,Xiang,Gen and Vega.. There's even Rose and Katana and the ADUKEN move! COOL! OK fine, I'm a little bias since I like such 'cartoon turned' kinda movies.. Still, I'm giving it 3 stars ;)

After the movie was dinner at Sushi Teh which was good.. always fulfilling, I love Japanese cuisine.. And some shoppping here and there.. Didn't had my Cam with me sadly.. but o well.. fun day! ;)

O god, just took a fb test and it says that I'm Chun Li.. WTF?!?

Anyway, got these from Candy Empire.. Rocky Road, it's like some chocolate thing with Mellows and nuts and jellies in em.. Sounds yummy! Gonna wait till I'm recovered from my cough before I'm gonna devour them hahaah..

And I found these!!! Finally! Happy Hippo, from Kinder from Germany! hahaha.. Daniel used to give me these when I was in Germany.. It brings back so much memories.. sweet.. hahahaha..

Ok, got another maid at home from today.. so the house is kinda pack right now.. so choos :)
