Parents day. day for parents? they get a day off? nah. they have to stop all they're doing and make their way down to their kid's school at 6pm, wait for half an hour to meet the form teacher. it's not that bad if the kid did well. not in my case thou. lol.

during the last period of friday which was chemistry, we bugged mr ong to get our results/ call our parent instead of making them come etc etc. kinda to avoid going thru chem tut lol.

some had preferred not to have a look but i got my result slip back la. must know i got so it would shock me that much lol. i hadnt calculated it eariler (not sure abt mark banding) but i got a C, O, D, D. great. was quite indifferent since i knew the marks before had but was really dreading letting mom look at it. esp since i havent told her how i did for the midyrs!

fastforward to in the hall, 6.15pm. i had already told her i failed maths cos i forgot a v imp formula n half the paper needed it (halftrue...).. the hall was choatic! hardly seemed to have any order with it teeming with ppl and tables n many chairs scattered around. finally found o5s1d. there was a queue already! lol, 1d's quite kiasu.

quite a nervous wait for me, esp when my mom went over to chitchat with queenie wong(a lecturer who's quite ecentric). O_O!!! going back to ai tong pri (her son was in my class. she used to confront my form teacher all the time for the puny TWO/THREE marks she felt her son deserved in primary sch exam paper) and pointing me out (i was trying to hide behind my friends thou too obiviously. made it even easier to point me out "there, that gal trying to hide behind her friends! that's emily. there, she's peeking at us now.") crap, somehow the consent form was mentioned! (i signed mine myself...cos i frogot to ask mom to)

chinese teacher came over =) chitchatted. she's a live wire ^^. humorous. janet's mom confronted her! lol. gossiped about a certain mrs lim(a classmate) to the chinese teacher! omg, cant believe it lol.

my turn. at first it was ok. and then they (mom n ong) started questioning me! "u having troubles in sch? u don't understand your work? what do you do then u go home? u slackened half way thru the term? i cant see how u can get C for chem and O for math, right maths rep? (wahlao, what can't see. my result slip right in front of you)" etcetc. omg, the questions came fast and furious. almost gonna cry already can. of cos i didnt lah. after an interminable 5 mins, we finally left the table.

*relief*

in the car, more questions. specifically what i do online. "msn chat? bloggig? read blogs? rearrange your photo albums?(<--that's ridculus lol) draw?" etc. i kept answer no. i dont know why. just felt if i did, she;ll stop me or something. and once i said no, i felt i couldnt change my answer. she got really exasperated. and quite worked up.

when i got home i had to quickly warn my siblings about her being in a bad mood. she snaps at and finds fault in everybody in her path when she's in a bad mood (not often luckily. she's fantastic n much nicer other times). they were very good.. jumped outta bed(usually hv to shout/pull/tickle them hundreds of times) n were pretty meek and careful thruout the very awkward dinner. felt very bad about having my siblings getting some of the blunt of her temper which i was the cause of.

the nxt day, everything was back as per normal. phew =).

fastbackwards. between sch ended and parents day, some Friday Regulars came! (amanda says that's the new name i gave in my previous blog entry. not intended but anyway, perhaps to ref to others+yellow grp)(PW grp=yellow group)(this time, really ONLY pw members)(duanyu, amanda,june,cui)(usually xiao ying joins the fun. michelle, once.) purpose: play w my pets lots, snack, and at least small bit of work to justify the visit hee.

no more money T_T!


my spanking new casio S100

yes. i do keep my money in an soggy pink envolope. lol.(tt's all my money from CNY+pocket money left.dont use the bank;how to get money out otherwise!? i dont save much i realised T_T. 7 months of sch, i saved $60 -_- = $0.50/day saved lol.well. actually, i didnt save at all! had more than $360 of angpao money! jeez. i'm dead)

$300 poorer. oh well. first time spending so much money, first time buying something so expensive.. but.. not that heartpain. because i didnt really save up for like months for $300. dad's colleague who isnt even married, who isnt even CHINESE, gave us(us siblings) each an $300 angpao during CNY! phua! 6x more than my own parents lol. gonna be surprised for the nxt few times i dip into my pink envolope to find only 2 freaking notes lol.

casio (i always think of baby-g and gshocks whenver casio's mentioned) S100, 3.2 MB (same as my olympus), 3x optical zoom, 2" screen.

most importantly: it's size. 16.7mm( 14.2 at it's thinnest point) x88mm x56.

Sweet. Had wanted a small camera to bring arond everywhere. my phone's camera.. not counted. cant get photos out n memory's full-_- (have 370 photos currently)

it was $459. i paid $300 and mom+dad topped up the rest as my birthday present. because my bday present was quite.. erm...
(my mouse is indeed green. not camera faulty lol)
a very psychotic looking riko(?)(magadascar). scary leh, in the middle of the night, see it staring at you...

very happy with my s100! had to get it asap, at least b4 the Parent Meeting in school *sheepish look*.

had wanted the 5.1M
<--9.8mm!
sony cybershot DSC T-7
so badly i even divided out how long i wld hv to save to get it. but while researching i found out lots of ppl were not happy with the image quality!chey,it's lousy cam.and it's $700+ -_-. didnt know but: a good 3m/4m cam can take better pics than a lousy 5m camera. had always thought 5m = always better than 3m.

i wish my S100 has anti-shake and auto macro-mode but still, yay.

OH YEAH. watch the island! highly recommanded. thrilling, great sets, alot of work went into designing n planning i bet. food for thought-ish too. go watch!

I have THREE entries in draft form. hopefull this doesnt ned up like them. the others are actually more or less done but mouse dead halfway thru those entries -_-

havent ran in ages. the last time was lets see, 4july.

it was a harrowing experience trying the sneak out of the house w/o sophie (my doggie ^^) pouncing on me n trying to escape.

anyway. after my run n my foot were free from my shoes, i saw something that surprised me. wasnt shocked thou, just surprised.



nop. it wasnt an afternoon run! the flash made it look like that. a nugget of info,in the afternoon, the sun does indeed shine into my room like that. freakin hot it does. but makes the day look so.. inviting! like go out, play, smell the rose! btu at that time, u're more likely to smell exhuast of cars and school buses lol.

oh yeah. blood. didnt hurt thou. early there was a small like 4mm clot there so i wasnt totally surprised. looks like alot of blood eh. my toe looked alright, just had a very faint,almost unnoticable sheen of watercolourish red.




my timing for +/-2.4km. 14 hours and 6mins. actually it was 14min6sec. not bad considering i ususally run 1.9k+ in 1350.

4 July
my mouse is DEAD. it wont work. so i'm nagivating w my keyboard now. "tab tab tabbing" everything to get to where i want to. -_-.

whee. just back frm my run. hah.

ok!lets go reverse-chronogically.

been sleeping late. 3/4am for lets see. 2/3 weeks? today woke up at 3.30. yesterday i woke up at 2 from lunch. went back to sleep till 7! hee.



(arh! bloody hell i cant upload pics! "Please CLICK browse to upload your picture" -_- cant enter. if i do, uploads nothing straight away. how. bleh.

(ok. i memorised the path n typed it in)

saturday, 2 july
was expecting to spend the afternoon lazing around, perhaps get down to blogging. but nooo..., glam-ed up mom who just left the house 5min ago called to ask me to get ready. i was going to the dinner to! cos somebody cldnt make it n well, table w empty seat doesnt look nice. i was feeling >_< arh!! was gonna be super boring. n have to wear my prom dress for the what, 3rd time?

somehow, mom's other clothes got brought up by sis i think and i quickly added i liked that halter! so i wore that in e end! haha.





It was a really. really boring dinner. "2nd collage of obstetricians and Gynaecologists, singapore; lecture and dinner". yup. there was a 45min lec b4 dinner! at least mom's friend was a moviejunky! discussed movies hee.

ended at around 11. one of mom's wilder friends (she's a secretary) asked us to join in clubbing! surprisingly, mom didnt really object thou she was hesistant. whee, afterall, i cld prolly get in in what i was wearing

were queuing to get in bar none when one of mom's friend just flashed the member card n we just went straight in! pretty cool. they didnt even glance at me.

and i was in! was i gonna get picked up? lol! that's my impression of clubs ^^; there was a live band playing. the gal was one of the singapore idol finalist! the short short one. i was very =D when i knew the song they were singing. beautiful soul by jesse! whee. but i was surprised that no body was dancing TCS bluff me. anywya, i was quite impressed that they sounded just like the original! (right drumbeats n stuff)

my drink came (a gu niang singapore sling) n it was kinda. bitter X|. sipped so freaking slowly at it my hands were becoming numb from holding onto that cold cup.

the band sabo some ppl making gals on their hen-nights out kneel right in front of male strangers and.. suck..from a straw, the cup of drink. lol. looked vagual frm behind ^^. (mom's friends were like "orh.. see stuff not supposed to see" lol. i just watched the M18 version of LOve Actually the day b4 k :P)

the band left after a few song n music started play n ppl started moving! (lol, peeps rather dance to piped music then live band?) started moving unnaturally, since the last time i danced was like. i dunno, prom? ^^;;. and then i realised. mom and her friends were surrounding me!! -_-. =_=. "protecting me?" but then again, i would feel kinda lost if i got separated ^^;.

i still had that drink in my hand btw. i got tired of holding it so i kinda gulped it down n got rid of that cup.

left in around an hour while superstar-jamelia was playing :(. mom cldnt stand the smell of ciggy smoke.

i for one have an extremely sensitive nose n cldnt smell a thing. must have been blocked ^^;. when i got home n enter the room bro was in, he exclaim "ew!! so smelly! u smoke arh?!". then the smell hit me. phuaw. damn smelly. not just normal cigerette stink but cigar stink too.

friday. 1st july
was to meet xiaoying n cui at 12. and i woke up at 11. by right, i could have made it on time but then it was friday. start of the weekend. what if i met somebody in town i knew (refering to a specific person here, pretty small chance but...still). was bored w my clothes. raided mom's! haha.there was this nice halter top but it's too hmm.. not the right occasion to wear out haha. aiya. most too big. in the end i settled for a mango tee. quite ordinary actually. haha. and yes. i was late. took the taxi. $7.90!!!

went to Beads Etc. to buy stuff n taught them the basics of making earrings by the heeren fountain!

had to hang around till FIVE to meet the others (sinyee, mingfen, nianya) for dinner+movie. killed time at kino

for dinner was that $19.90 + $2(drinks) + $2(icecream) buffet thingy at yuki and yaki. it was 3in1 Steamboat-BBQ-sushi thingy. i bet the freeflow drinks were to fill us up w water loh. haha. there was the "qing dang"(steam stuff) and bbq gang. i was more of the former. so not worth it ^^;. anyway. the icecream part was the most fun! where we were bbq-ing our food, they scrubbed n cleaned and the next moment, we were solidifying icecream from slush in a cup!quite a scene.

at first we were quite unsure. didnt seem to be solidying. after alot of trial n error, we found out the best way was to freeze one cup at a time, and aim for the center!

a lot like love. those two were silly ^^. hee. very liberal they were, having sex here and there..n naked bodies pressed together, silhouette in the moonlight(i thought it was a nice photo for them thou. a memory to look back at when they're old n crinkly eh). i'm surprised it got a PG rating. i wont be comfy my 7 yr old cousin was watching this. but then again, no explicit act of sex shown so i guess doesnt qualify for nc16. it was quite good fun (not the sex, the movie overall) but not particularly memorable. kinda sweet some part. kinda funny too. i may grow to like it.(sounds funny when i say that eh)(read my movie baton thingy to understand) nice songs thou. i want the soundtrack. oh yeah. i think it's quite real in a sense that sometimes, it's really cos of timing/situtation ppl dont get together as in their case.

thursday, 30 june.
i was woken up by familiar voices. my friends'. i thought i was dreaming lol. jeez. they came right up to my room where i was still in embarasing bear/froggy/stary pyjamas..

watched spy girl (korean movie. not memorable). ella enchanted (predictable fairy tale fluff which was hm, ok la ^^). and love actually! my forth time. my M18 version. hee. took away my dear friends' innocence haha. i want the soundtrack too!

wednesday, 29 june
EXAMS ENDED. woohoo. lunch at pizzahut w sharon n mingfen n cui ^^. it was 4.10 by the time we finished so we missed the 3.30/3.50 movies. the nxt was 6+. rented lots of movies. planned to go my place to watch the nxt day.

decided to go home. but how can, last day of exam! so i went out myself. and realised my watch was still on timer mode (4h10m since paper started) lol! it was only around 2pm. jeez.

headed down to cathay to catch Be with You. it's a touching family-ish story and i was interested to know what kind of guy would watch it alone. i kept peeking at the guys beside me to see if they were crying! the one on my left was prolly dragged by his gf. $&%^$ he was snoring at the first part of the movie k!. the guy my right was watching it alone. early 20s? surprisingly, the guy who teared (he was "wiping" his eye) was the dragged along bf! yes. i did cry too. haha. so long nvr cry liao! nice lil movie. lovely narration n how it falls into place. Yuji is cute!

click HERE for more info

"Takumi (Shidou Nakamura) just lost his wife Mio (Yuko Takeuchi) and lived alone with his son Yuji (Akashi Takei). Before her death, Mio promised that she would come back during the rainy season. One day, Takumi and Yuji, while searching for something in the woods, saw Mio there. Mio seems to have lost her memory, but accepted the father and son as family. Mio began to learn about the family, how Takumi and she started their courtship, among other things. She then learned that she would disappear when the rainy season was over. Actually, she learned why she was there. In the end, the film revealed what actually happened.

The plot is absolutely very surprising in the end and very entertaining on the whole. Also, when the plot is finally revealed in the end, every detail in the film makes sense. It is not just about the plot, however. The progression of the film is very emotional and touching. Strong emphases were put on Takumi's love towards Mio, which touches the heart of whoever watches the film. The decision made by Mio, as revealed at the end of the film, was also admirable and emotional. Of course, the love of Yuji towards his mother was also touching.

In sum, this is a very good film to watch." via here

AS OF 18 JULY, it is STILL SHOWING at CATHAY so go watch.




stuff i bought that day. the stitch thingy comes in two, together but i separated them. plonked in $2 in coins n turned them out! they came in capsules, how appropriate lol. icecream eating one's my sis's! nicer than mine! lol.(devil stitch's on my phone, pensive stitch's on my pencil case) i saw that nice nice ring b4 the movie.since i'm not supposed to buy on impulse, i waited till after the movie to see if i still wanted it.

i did! it's very pretty. look at that fanciful, very freehand font! it even has it inside! so detailed eh? on the other side if "love" mirror-imaged. so the e-stroke goes all the way to the other "love" --> love---------eovl. the guy asked if it was for me or .... (lol, he did leave the question hanging there like that). 16 too small. 18 kinda big! argh. 17 sold out :(. hai. have it on a string now. but dunno if i'll wear it -_- usually other ppl give den wear like that eh? oh well. i do like it.

arg. i still have the supper and zhss unblogged lol! i'm such a procastinater

last night, i retired to bed at 1, after drowning a can of green tea (sis brought up for no reason so i drink loh).woke up at 2/3 to pee (see la, drink b4 sleeping) and i couldnt get back to sleep.

i just lay there, thinking of a million things. it was so frustrating. i tried clearing my head, only for it to wonder..from imaginary scenerios to what if i was with him or him to the future to..movies sets! i was watching emily (amanda peet) calling ashton.that scene where he tells her the goldfish joke by the grave. it was so surreal. the director shot her from the window but i was in that room sitting on a box, different viewpoint. quite amazing. how weird.

i even semi-dreamt of this giant moth. size of our arms spreadouteagle style. i witness it fly past those countless missile. it escaped. i was gonna touch it n suddenly i was inviewpoint of the freakin moth. multi-faceted, like those of a fly. i was still me, watching myself reach slowly out to the month. i remember i had to proceed slowly or scare it. and many other wierd stuff.

most of the time i was in a state of semi-conscienceness. kinda dreaming but not asleep yet. lucid dreaming? if i didnt really like that dream, i would wiggle my toes, clench n unclench my fist to bring me back to my room. at 4.08 i still wasnt asleep. damn it i just wanted to go to sleep. and dream asleep! but my mind was in hyperdrive, like overdose of caffine or something

i think it's due to my sleeping at 4/5am and waking up at 3pm for weeks. screwed up internal clock.

ususally i sleep well btw.

anyway. listening comprehension was at 11am. wanted to get a lift + revise abit for oral(which would be later in the afternoon) so i left w mom. arrived at 8.30. some students leaving sch. wierd. i bet i was dead quiet since i was so early. wrong. the sch was bustling w ppl! ?????!!? oh well. allearly birds lol.

"where were you during listening comprehension?" said xiao ying.

shit. it was at 8am. darn. first time missing an exam (well, a component off) and a chicken one at that.

i dont know why i thought listening was at 11am. i was sure it was 11am. n i dont know why. cos bio ended at 11? arg. bu zhi dao la. i later found out the highest was 10/10 and the loweset 9. actually, lowest is 0. me. ah! so wasted.

so went home, grab a shirt and rushed back to angmokio. bought the 10.05am Initial D tix at 10.03am!

it was quite funny. excess racing bits but then it's abt racing and w/o racing, well, there's nothing much right. lol. when jay first appeared i was =D =D ah. haha. i half expected him to start singing. jay cries like a 8 yr old kid who cant gets what he wants. i think jay's dad put up a great performance. nice humur in it ^^

a lvl chinese oral. i kinda stumbled over words n was alil flustered but it got better was it went on. the conversation topic was rather easy! about youths chatting w/ strangers online.

i wasnt following the IOC thingy n had not much interest but watched the IOC annoucement program thingy where they showed the 5 presentations n stuff. was rooting for London! well. i am a british n i've no relation to paris so of cos i'll root for london la. and mom oso said i MAY be there in london in 2012! i prefered paris's presentation thou. this comes from a person who likes advertisements haha. thought paris would win and when the longwinded president finally annouced "blah blah blahity blah LONDON" i was XD "alright!!" n bouced on the sofa. my maid prolly thinks im crazy hee.

oh yes. mybig blog entry which i promised is still in draft form. prolly finishing it up over the weekend. lol. i blogged more during the exam period than after exams. why? because during exam period, i want to do anything other than studying lol.

went clubbing at bar none just now. a first. had an alcoholic drink. anyway.. sleepy now, had just caught up with my blog-reading lol.
more about it when i do finally get my butt down to blogging. properly that is.

arh. shit. my mms configaration's dissapeared spontaneously again! this is the 2nd time! jeez. what's going on. (the image supposed to be a mms if i had it my way)

anyway. sleep dreaming ^^

PLEASE CLICK HERE and vote for 1st row, 2nd pic (it has emily ng beneath it). i'm entering for my friends (zhonghua one) (and dont tell them until they enter top5 hee)

fastforward to in the hall, 6.15pm. i had already told her i failed maths cos i forgot a v imp formula n half the paper needed it (halftrue...).. the hall was choatic! hardly seemed to have any order with it teeming with ppl and tables n many chairs scattered around. finally found o5s1d. there was a queue already! lol, 1d's quite kiasu.

quite a nervous wait for me, esp when my mom went over to chitchat with queenie wong(a lecturer who's quite ecentric).

it was $459. i paid $300 and mom+dad topped up the rest as my birthday present. because my bday present was quite.. erm...
(my mouse is indeed green. not camera faulty lol)
a very psychotic looking riko(?)(magadascar). scary leh, in the middle of the night, see it staring at you...

very happy with my s100! had to get it asap, at least b4 the Parent Meeting in school *sheepish look*.

had wanted the 5.1M
<--9.8mm!
sony cybershot DSC T-7
so badly i even divided out how long i wld hv to save to get it. but while researching i found out lots of ppl were not happy with the image quality!chey,it's lousy cam.and it's $700+ -_-. didnt know but: a good 3m/4m cam can take better pics than a lousy 5m camera. had always thought 5m = always better than 3m.

i wish my S100 has anti-shake and auto macro-mode but still, yay.

OH YEAH. watch the island! highly recommanded. thrilling, great sets, alot of work went into designing n planning i bet. food for thought-ish too. go watch!

I have THREE entries in draft form. hopefull this doesnt ned up like them. the others are actually more or less done but mouse dead halfway thru those entries -_-

havent ran in ages. the last time was lets see, 4july.

it was a harrowing experience trying the sneak out of the house w/o sophie (my doggie ^^) pouncing on me n trying to escape.

anyway. after my run n my foot were free from my shoes, i saw something that surprised me. wasnt shocked thou, just surprised.



nop. it wasnt an afternoon run! the flash made it look like that. a nugget of info,in the afternoon, the sun does indeed shine into my room like that. freakin hot it does. but makes the day look so.. inviting! like go out, play, smell the rose! btu at that time, u're more likely to smell exhuast of cars and school buses lol.

oh yeah. blood. didnt hurt thou. early there was a small like 4mm clot there so i wasnt totally surprised. looks like alot of blood eh. my toe looked alright, just had a very faint,almost unnoticable sheen of watercolourish red.




my timing for +/-2.4km. 14 hours and 6mins. actually it was 14min6sec. not bad considering i ususally run 1.9k+ in 1350.

4 July
my mouse is DEAD. it wont work. so i'm nagivating w my keyboard now. "tab tab tabbing" everything to get to where i want to. -_-.

whee. just back frm my run. hah.

ok!lets go reverse-chronogically.

been sleeping late. 3/4am for lets see. 2/3 weeks? today woke up at 3.30. yesterday i woke up at 2 from lunch. went back to sleep till 7! hee.



(arh! bloody hell i cant upload pics! "Please CLICK browse to upload your picture" -_- cant enter. if i do, uploads nothing straight away. how. bleh.

(ok. i memorised the path n typed it in)

saturday, 2 july
was expecting to spend the afternoon lazing around, perhaps get down to blogging. but nooo..., glam-ed up mom who just left the house 5min ago called to ask me to get ready. i was going to the dinner to! cos somebody cldnt make it n well, table w empty seat doesnt look nice. i was feeling >_< arh!! was gonna be super boring. n have to wear my prom dress for the what, 3rd time?

somehow, mom's other clothes got brought up by sis i think and i quickly added i liked that halter! so i wore that in e end! haha.





It was a really. really boring dinner. "2nd collage of obstetricians and Gynaecologists, singapore; lecture and dinner". yup. there was a 45min lec b4 dinner! at least mom's friend was a moviejunky! discussed movies hee.

ended at around 11. one of mom's wilder friends (she's a secretary) asked us to join in clubbing! surprisingly, mom didnt really object thou she was hesistant. whee, afterall, i cld prolly get in in what i was wearing

were queuing to get in bar none when one of mom's friend just flashed the member card n we just went straight in! pretty cool. they didnt even glance at me.

and i was in! was i gonna get picked up? lol! that's my impression of clubs ^^; there was a live band playing. the gal was one of the singapore idol finalist! the short short one. i was very =D when i knew the song they were singing. beautiful soul by jesse! whee. but i was surprised that no body was dancing TCS bluff me. anywya, i was quite impressed that they sounded just like the original! (right drumbeats n stuff)

my drink came (a gu niang singapore sling) n it was kinda. bitter X|. sipped so freaking slowly at it my hands were becoming numb from holding onto that cold cup.

the band sabo some ppl making gals on their hen-nights out kneel right in front of male strangers and.. suck..from a straw, the cup of drink. lol. looked vagual frm behind ^^. (mom's friends were like "orh.. see stuff not supposed to see" lol. i just watched the M18 version of LOve Actually the day b4 k :P)

the band left after a few song n music started play n ppl started moving! (lol, peeps rather dance to piped music then live band?) started moving unnaturally, since the last time i danced was like. i dunno, prom? ^^;;. and then i realised. mom and her friends were surrounding me!! -_-. =_=. "protecting me?" but then again, i would feel kinda lost if i got separated ^^;.

i still had that drink in my hand btw. i got tired of holding it so i kinda gulped it down n got rid of that cup.

left in around an hour while superstar-jamelia was playing :(. mom cldnt stand the smell of ciggy smoke.

i for one have an extremely sensitive nose n cldnt smell a thing. must have been blocked ^^;. when i got home n enter the room bro was in, he exclaim "ew!! so smelly! u smoke arh?!". then the smell hit me. phuaw. damn smelly. not just normal cigerette stink but cigar stink too.

friday. 1st july
was to meet xiaoying n cui at 12. and i woke up at 11. by right, i could have made it on time but then it was friday. start of the weekend. what if i met somebody in town i knew (refering to a specific person here, pretty small chance but...still). was bored w my clothes. raided mom's! haha.there was this nice halter top but it's too hmm.. not the right occasion to wear out haha. aiya. most too big. in the end i settled for a mango tee. quite ordinary actually. haha. and yes. i was late. took the taxi. $7.90!!!

went to Beads Etc. to buy stuff n taught them the basics of making earrings by the heeren fountain!

had to hang around till FIVE to meet the others (sinyee, mingfen, nianya) for dinner+movie. killed time at kino

for dinner was that $19.90 + $2(drinks) + $2(icecream) buffet thingy at yuki and yaki. it was 3in1 Steamboat-BBQ-sushi thingy. i bet the freeflow drinks were to fill us up w water loh. haha. there was the "qing dang"(steam stuff) and bbq gang. i was more of the former. so not worth it ^^;. anyway. the icecream part was the most fun! where we were bbq-ing our food, they scrubbed n cleaned and the next moment, we were solidifying icecream from slush in a cup!quite a scene.

at first we were quite unsure. didnt seem to be solidying. after alot of trial n error, we found out the best way was to freeze one cup at a time, and aim for the center!

a lot like love. those two were silly ^^. hee. very liberal they were, having sex here and there..n naked bodies pressed together, silhouette in the moonlight(i thought it was a nice photo for them thou. a memory to look back at when they're old n crinkly eh). i'm surprised it got a PG rating. i wont be comfy my 7 yr old cousin was watching this. but then again, no explicit act of sex shown so i guess doesnt qualify for nc16. it was quite good fun (not the sex, the movie overall) but not particularly memorable. kinda sweet some part. kinda funny too. i may grow to like it.(sounds funny when i say that eh)(read my movie baton thingy to understand) nice songs thou. i want the soundtrack. oh yeah. i think it's quite real in a sense that sometimes, it's really cos of timing/situtation ppl dont get together as in their case.

thursday, 30 june.
i was woken up by familiar voices. my friends'. i thought i was dreaming lol. jeez. they came right up to my room where i was still in embarasing bear/froggy/stary pyjamas..

watched spy girl (korean movie. not memorable). ella enchanted (predictable fairy tale fluff which was hm, ok la ^^). and love actually! my forth time. my M18 version. hee. took away my dear friends' innocence haha. i want the soundtrack too!

wednesday, 29 june
EXAMS ENDED. woohoo. lunch at pizzahut w sharon n mingfen n cui ^^. it was 4.10 by the time we finished so we missed the 3.30/3.50 movies. the nxt was 6+. rented lots of movies. planned to go my place to watch the nxt day.

decided to go home. but how can, last day of exam! so i went out myself. and realised my watch was still on timer mode (4h10m since paper started) lol! it was only around 2pm. jeez.

headed down to cathay to catch Be with You. it's a touching family-ish story and i was interested to know what kind of guy would watch it alone. i kept peeking at the guys beside me to see if they were crying! the one on my left was prolly dragged by his gf. $&%^$ he was snoring at the first part of the movie k!. the guy my right was watching it alone. early 20s? surprisingly, the guy who teared (he was "wiping" his eye) was the dragged along bf! yes. i did cry too. haha. so long nvr cry liao! nice lil movie. lovely narration n how it falls into place. Yuji is cute!

click HERE for more info

"Takumi (Shidou Nakamura) just lost his wife Mio (Yuko Takeuchi) and lived alone with his son Yuji (Akashi Takei). Before her death, Mio promised that she would come back during the rainy season. One day, Takumi and Yuji, while searching for something in the woods, saw Mio there. Mio seems to have lost her memory, but accepted the father and son as family. Mio began to learn about the family, how Takumi and she started their courtship, among other things. She then learned that she would disappear when the rainy season was over. Actually, she learned why she was there. In the end, the film revealed what actually happened.

The plot is absolutely very surprising in the end and very entertaining on the whole. Also, when the plot is finally revealed in the end, every detail in the film makes sense. It is not just about the plot, however. The progression of the film is very emotional and touching. Strong emphases were put on Takumi's love towards Mio, which touches the heart of whoever watches the film. The decision made by Mio, as revealed at the end of the film, was also admirable and emotional. Of course, the love of Yuji towards his mother was also touching.

In sum, this is a very good film to watch." via here

AS OF 18 JULY, it is STILL SHOWING at CATHAY so go watch.




stuff i bought that day. the stitch thingy comes in two, together but i separated them. plonked in $2 in coins n turned them out! they came in capsules, how appropriate lol. icecream eating one's my sis's! nicer than mine! lol.(devil stitch's on my phone, pensive stitch's on my pencil case) i saw that nice nice ring b4 the movie.since i'm not supposed to buy on impulse, i waited till after the movie to see if i still wanted it.

i did! it's very pretty. look at that fanciful, very freehand font! it even has it inside! so detailed eh? on the other side if "love" mirror-imaged. so the e-stroke goes all the way to the other "love" --> love---------eovl. the guy asked if it was for me or .... (lol, he did leave the question hanging there like that). 16 too small. 18 kinda big! argh. 17 sold out :(. hai. have it on a string now. but dunno if i'll wear it -_- usually other ppl give den wear like that eh? oh well. i do like it.

arg. i still have the supper and zhss unblogged lol! i'm such a procastinater

last night, i retired to bed at 1, after drowning a can of green tea (sis brought up for no reason so i drink loh).woke up at 2/3 to pee (see la, drink b4 sleeping) and i couldnt get back to sleep.

i just lay there, thinking of a million things. it was so frustrating. i tried clearing my head, only for it to wonder..from imaginary scenerios to what if i was with him or him to the future to..movies sets! i was watching emily (amanda peet) calling ashton.that scene where he tells her the goldfish joke by the grave. it was so surreal. the director shot her from the window but i was in that room sitting on a box, different viewpoint. quite amazing. how weird.

i even semi-dreamt of this giant moth. size of our arms spreadouteagle style. i witness it fly past those countless missile. it escaped. i was gonna touch it n suddenly i was inviewpoint of the freakin moth. multi-faceted, like those of a fly. i was still me, watching myself reach slowly out to the month. i remember i had to proceed slowly or scare it. and many other wierd stuff.

most of the time i was in a state of semi-conscienceness. kinda dreaming but not asleep yet. lucid dreaming? if i didnt really like that dream, i would wiggle my toes, clench n unclench my fist to bring me back to my room. at 4.08 i still wasnt asleep. damn it i just wanted to go to sleep. and dream asleep! but my mind was in hyperdrive, like overdose of caffine or something

i think it's due to my sleeping at 4/5am and waking up at 3pm for weeks. screwed up internal clock.

ususally i sleep well btw.

anyway. listening comprehension was at 11am. wanted to get a lift + revise abit for oral(which would be later in the afternoon) so i left w mom. arrived at 8.30. some students leaving sch. wierd. i bet i was dead quiet since i was so early. wrong. the sch was bustling w ppl! ?????!!? oh well. allearly birds lol.

"where were you during listening comprehension?" said xiao ying.

shit. it was at 8am. darn. first time missing an exam (well, a component off) and a chicken one at that.

i dont know why i thought listening was at 11am. i was sure it was 11am. n i dont know why. cos bio ended at 11? arg. bu zhi dao la. i later found out the highest was 10/10 and the loweset 9. actually, lowest is 0. me. ah! so wasted.

so went home, grab a shirt and rushed back to angmokio. bought the 10.05am Initial D tix at 10.03am!

it was quite funny. excess racing bits but then it's abt racing and w/o racing, well, there's nothing much right. lol. when jay first appeared i was =D =D ah. haha. i half expected him to start singing. jay cries like a 8 yr old kid who cant gets what he wants. i think jay's dad put up a great performance. nice humur in it ^^

a lvl chinese oral. i kinda stumbled over words n was alil flustered but it got better was it went on. the conversation topic was rather easy! about youths chatting w/ strangers online.

i wasnt following the IOC thingy n had not much interest but watched the IOC annoucement program thingy where they showed the 5 presentations n stuff. was rooting for London! well. i am a british n i've no relation to paris so of cos i'll root for london la. and mom oso said i MAY be there in london in 2012! i prefered paris's presentation thou. this comes from a person who likes advertisements haha. thought paris would win and when the longwinded president finally annouced "blah blah blahity blah LONDON" i was XD "alright!!" n bouced on the sofa. my maid prolly thinks im crazy hee.

oh yes. mybig blog entry which i promised is still in draft form. prolly finishing it up over the weekend. lol. i blogged more during the exam period than after exams. why? because during exam period, i want to do anything other than studying lol.

went clubbing at bar none just now. a first. had an alcoholic drink. anyway.. sleepy now, had just caught up with my blog-reading lol.
