I've watched 2 movies recently, 'Dreamgirls' and 'Hannibal Rising'. Well, Dreamgirls was quite nice with that musical portrayal of many different scenes. The only bummer was it's anti-climatic ending, nonetheless, it's worth every cent spent on the ticket.
Hannibal Rising; the prequel to Hannibal. Unlike it's sequel, Hannibal Rising wasn't that gross. It just told a story about a young boy who suffered under the hands of the Nazi people who subsequently ate his younger sister to survive... hence his twisted mind and obsession for revenge.

I've got a new handphone which I paid entirely for myself. Well, it isn't exactly the colour which excites me very much but nonetheless, it's features were eye-openers. Here's a picture of it and a link if you want more information on it.

My life today:

I finished two chapters of the book, 'Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix'
No, before you let your mind venture into the thoughts of how childish I am, let me assure you that it is a very interesting book; or one of the books of the series for that matter. J.K Rowling (the author) has a way to keep the reader's mind captivated and hooked at the same time. It took me a while to close the covers.

I tried playing, POKEMON silver version- for 5 minutes. Well, let's say it was old-school. 'nuff said.
I combed through many websites with a mission to find some interesting games to play but nothing caught my eye.

I've decided to catch the movie, 'Dreamgirls' on my own tomorrow.

oh and I made a meego:



I hate boring days.

I don't care whether you read my posts or not but I'm posting it anyway.
I'm darn happy. It has been an awesome day (16/2/2007) and I want to imprint it here.

1.30p.m.-3.00p.m.- I went to watch the movie, 'EPIC movie' with Charleston and Minyang. That show had many dirty puns implanted into it's plot. Funny but it soon became a slight turn-off after a while. Nonetheless, we enjoyed the time in the cinema poking fun at some of the characters. The movie tickets were on me.

3.30p.m.-5.30 p.m.- Charleston, Minyang and I went to Sakae Sushi to eat. Well, eating has been such a chore until then. We made a pact to finish up 50 plates of sushi in the Student Buffet package. Well you see, each plate is $1.90 and if you do the math, it was more worth it to finish nothing lesser than 50 plates. Haha.. the beginning seem quite easy but as time went by, we began to find that sitting on the velcro belt were the same kind of sushi all around. Waiting no more, we made an order for the other kinds of sushi to be delivered instead. It was a mistake because waiting for the food was a chore in itself. It took forever.
Charleston,Minyang and I began chatting (not that we didn't earlier on) to pass time. It was fun, I mean ever since years ago when Charleston was my leader and when I used to stayover his house like every other time, talking to him has never been a more enjoyable thing. Yeah, awesome.

Ivan and Yi Yuan joined us later. Well as they say, the 'more the merrier'. More energy sparked from our conversations about things... I've decided to label them as 'things' because some may be private. Jianming arrived later. Still then, the food was on the tortoise trail to our table and plates arriving seem like a miracle. We swallowed as much as we could. Well you see, the clever clause stated for the buffet was 'Surcharge will be due for food wastage'. Argh.

Soon, 5.30pm came and that was when we decided to leave for KBOX with the zone F people.

5.30p.m.-7.10p.m.- The whole group of us (Minyang,Charleston, Ivan Poh,Yi Yuan,Jianming, Cheryl Chan, Jomain, Jiaxin L, Jiayi and I) went to KBOX. Haha,they forced me to start the ball rolling by singing a song.. well, problem is, it was in chinese. I was spared later on and slowly everyone started singing. Ivan went totally mad about the song, 'THE SCIENTIST' by Coldplay.
FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN.
WE WENT CRAZY! Yeah, screaming it out now, WE WENT CRAZY! I love the people man!

7.15p.m.-7.30pm- MAD RUSH for the train! Yes, we were going to have a church reunion dinner at 7.30pm and all of us start moving quickly. It was halfway, the group splitted. Charleston, Minyang,YiYuan, Jomain, Jiayi, Jiaxin,Cheryl rushed for a train instead while Ivan Poh, Jianming ran back to church instead. They reached quicker in the end.

7.30p.m.-12.10a.m.- reunion dinner. It was nothing lesser than awesome.

12.15a.m.-2.30a.m.- Another movie! This time, the group was larger consisting of many leaders/staff. I was glad to join them. We watched the Jack Neo show, 'Just Follow Law'. It's a great show and I recommend you to watch it. www.laozharbor.blogspot.com is REAL by the way!

Day's closure- Charleston, Roy and Jianming took a cab home first. It was followed by Minyang, Yiyuan, Dexter and I. The rest- went to play DOTA. And yes, they are still playing now as I'm typing this post.

These are the kind of days I would love to have more often.

Yes, it's a new post.
My sincere apology goes out to you if you ever felt for one moment that I've abandoned this blog and scurry off to another past-time, something more sophisticated and interesting than hitting continually on the keyboard.
Well,I think nothing seems more fulfilling than being able to express the world within to the world outside.
Then of course, on the other hand, I might just lose my wide readership fan base if I held back my entries any longer.

I vaguely remember what happened yesterday. Only having some sketchy images of me studying for my examination and falling asleep unknowingly. I woke up the next morning feeling like the biggest loser because I was supposed to be studying throughout the night and yet, I fell asleep somehow. To add on, I woke up and started watching the live telecast of the Grammys 2007 without a care in the world; not even the silent nagging thought that my exam was only a few hours away. Three to be exact. Speaking of Grammys, I feel that MTV awards shows carry more spunk and that 'wham-bam' factor while the Grammy preferred a slightly more cleaned up and sophisticated flow which don't really appeal much. This year's Grammy's was slightly toned down and there was no big hoo-ha. Boring!

My procrastination then took it's toll on my examination. Yes, I have to admit that I haven't got much faith in today's paper.
Okay, moving on.

I went home straight after penning down a few logical answers on the script. Slacked for a while before heading towards Marina Bay for Ezone's reunion steamboat dinner. Like every other steamboat occasion, everyone left the place with a full stomach. I enjoyed myself and I'm glad that I ACTUALLY did make it there because I didn't planned on going initially as I didn't have much sleep the night before. It was amusing and heartwarming at the same time (figure that out) to see all of us gelling together.

At one point, I was hoping that Zelia and her gang of nonsensical people were there so that I could give them some love by smashing their faces into the steamboat 'kwali' (that metal bowl you put the soup with) Okay, I was joking!

Hot on my playlist is the song, 'Wait a minute' by the Pussycat dolls and more recently 'A moment like this' by Leona Lewis (X-factor winner). Speaking of Leona Lewis, boy, she can really sing falsetto with much ease and every dimension of it sounded extremely polished and nice! I want to be like HER! Oh, then I have to remind myself, I'm still dwelling in a male's skin. EH! Don't get me wrong please, I'm not dying to be a female! I'm just trying to explore some female boundaries, in terms of singing. Yeah, in case you do not know already (where have you been all these while?), I love singing whether you like to hear me or not. Ha-ha!

Oh yeah by the way, I'm much done with my semester already! Yes, play like crazy for three weeks before sinking back in to the school life when the new semester begins.
I'm pretty much holding onto some hope that my lecturer in charge of my final year project dons a halo and not two horns.

Alright, I'll leave you for now.

NEW YORK - Anybody who arrived from Mars and wanted to know what all the fuss was over this. Prancing onstage in a tight-fitting black gown that showcased her cleavage — which was, as all else about her, larger than life — she grabbed your attention. Her looks were outlandish, but there was beauty beneath the excess.
And then she spoke. "Like my body?" she asked, tracing her fingers over her breasts. Her slurred words spilled out dangerously. She was clearly very high on something, and you wondered if she would survive, literally.
It was hard to watch. And, of course, harder not to.
Scant hours after news emerged of her death Thursday at age 39, many people were hard pressed to describe what exactly Anna Nicole Smith was. Actress? Model? Reality star? Rich widow? "I don't know exactly what she did," said talk show host Joy Behar, hearing the news over the phone. And yet, trying to put her finger on why we watched this strange woman over the years, she came up with two things: Dysfunction. And beauty.
"No question, she was beautiful," said Behar, of ABC's "The View." "We know people like to watch dysfunction. But beauty gives you something extra to look at. Dysfunction and beauty: Now that's something to watch."
How was she dysfunctional? Really, how wasn't she? Her strange life seemed to veer from one outsized struggle to another. She struggled famously with her weight and with her family. She sometimes even struggled to speak without slurring. She had a TV show that could be so embarrassing you'd want to watch it with dark sunglasses on. Much more tragically, she lost her 20-year-old son. Five months ago she had a baby daughter and now two men claim to be the father.
In other words, she was a perfect pop culture icon. By contrast, another famous creature of Internet celebrity, the chic-er, more sophisticated and chillier
Paris Hilton has much less to fascinate us, grainy sex video notwithstanding. It's hard to feel sorry for her.
"With Anna Nicole, she was pathetic but at the same time you thought, 'Gosh, if I could just scoop you up and fix things, it would be OK,'" said Jerry Herron, a professor of American culture at Wayne State University. "You wouldn't want to scoop up Paris Hilton.'"
"Anna Nicole was," Herron noted, "in both her actions and her physical being, such an over-exaggerated version of what we both lust for and loathe in our society. Bombshell blonde? Family feuds? Lots and lots of money? Weight troubles? Obscene self-revelations on TV? She had it all."
The compelling mix of beauty and vulnerability is just one quality that has led to comparisons with Marilyn Monroe, another sexy, tragic blonde who Smith liked to compare herself to. The comparison is tempting, but the difference is monumental.
"Marilyn Monroe was an artist, a real performer, able to evoke in audiences a real empathy and a passion," said Richard Walter, a film professor at UCLA. "There is NO comparison." And yet he sees one strong point in common: the simple beginnings, the climb from total obscurity to fame.
"She came from humble origins and achieved celebrity and wealth, one way or another," Walter said. "And that is an American story."
For celebrity editor Janice Min of US Weekly, it's the element of perseverance that stands out in Smith's tale, which she sees as "almost this perverse Hollywood Horatio Alger story."
"She fought against so many obstacles — poverty. Teen pregnancy. A bad home life." And of course, ridicule. "But she persisted, where others would have shrunk away out of humiliation and shame."
It might have made her look pathetic. But it also made it exceedingly hard to look away.

Oh dear, I think I'm hooked on Friendster.

Okay, here comes step by step encounter from the wonderful life of mine.

So it was going a little bit crazy today.. like every other day. Amandal and Zelia brought their whole truckload of friends for service earlier on. Yes, all of them knew about the twins and my big hooha over them. Amandal [urgh!]
Immediately after service, all of us prepared for Amandal's birthday surprise. Yes, it was suppose to make her feel shocked, paiseh and surprised all mixed altogether when she was supposedly caught offguard during the whole yelling of birthday ritual.

There came ZELIA LEONG'S birthday present to Amandal...



Yeah, I do wonder why it is called the 'Shit Softener'. Hence, I asked Amandal to have an experiment-like a mini science project.
She was supposed to shit and touch it. Then pop a pill into her mouth before going to shit again after a few hours. By then, her shit should be softer.

We strutted our way to Ben and Jerry's at 'The Cathay'.
Yes, I do mean strut because on our way there, Amandal and I were doing the Fergilicious dance move accompanied with some rapping. Hit it Fergie!

Honestly, I didn't know Ben and Jerry's had such comfortable sofas that come along with a huge cow print pillow. All of us made cosy before downing a few scoops of ice-cream. Yeah, it was very expensive ($7 for two scoops).
The atmosphere was on a high.
Horngyu/ Johnny came to pass Amandal her birthday gift not too long after.

It was a pity the girls had to leave early because of O-levels examinations the following week.
Nonetheless, it was great fun.
The remaining people; including me then took many photos before heading off to the chicken rice stall for something more filling, something which we can seriously and affectionately call 'dinner'.

Subsequently, we met up with some of the e2 people.

PS: Amandal, please send me more photos from your digital camera!!!! Haha!

I'm selling my bass for $350.
any takers?
