2012

It's a Saturday again. Friends had been alerting me about the new movie on screen - 2012. Me, being the 2012 fanatic, was already aware of this and I couldn't miss the chance to see this Roland Emmerich's masterpiece. I had always wanted to watch this film since I saw its trailer few months back. So, dream came true for me (well, exaggerated a bit) as I had the chance to watch the movie 2 days after its premiere!


I tried to make some online ticket reservations but heck, I couldn't even enter due to the overwhelming traffic of the GSC website. Great! Can you imagine it? Traffic!!! No kidding. Ooohh! I HATE traffics! Shit! Couldn't reserve any tickets. All tickets will be sold out at the ticketing counters by then. Lucky for me though, my brother had 2 extra tickets (he reserved 6 tickets but 2 of his friends couldn't make it). But who am I going to ask? I only had 1 lonely ticket as the other one is for myself. So, we cant go in group of four (as planned). Sorry! 2 of you couldn't make it in the end anyway. So, I guess it doesn't matter if I go watch right? Haha. Will make it up for you someday ... :P

And thus, I started asking other 'not-in-group' friends.
1. Ching Ngie : Working
2. Sharon : Lazy to go Pavilion
3. Chin Hong : Sure. I want to watch.
4. Isaac : Oh no! I wanna watch but I'm going back to hometown.
5. Esther : Hell yeah!!! What? 12 noon??? Hell no!!! I have to fetch my sister to her piano lesson at 1.30pm.

Ok. 12 noon seemed to be a not-so-appropriate time but that's the only option we had. Obviously, the ultimate conclusion is CH. We arrived at Pavilion at a quarter to noon and loitered around aimlessly while waiting for my brother to pass us the tickets as he had picked the tickets up for us earlier on. He was 5 minutes late. I was paranoid thinking we had missed the beginning but luckily, the trailers were just starting not long ago. Gazing around the theatre, I wasn't surprised at all to see that it was a FULL HOUSE with not a single place left.

My favourite place for movies

For those who had yet to watch the film, I wont ruin it by posting spoilers. But I highly recommend this film to every one. 3 thumbs up from me!!! It was so action packed that you will grit your teeth and scream together with the other audiences. Well, not exactly scream, if you get what I mean. So, go watch!

After watching a film, I, like most folks, enjoy talking about it. It's just what you do. The ultimate and favourite questions are :

1. Is that day going to come?
2. Are we all gonna be doomed in about 3 years from now?
3. What had people done so far despite being warned?
4. Are those arks really being built now to prepare for 2012?
5. Are we all ready for the end of world?
6. Is there going to be a new world after 2012?

That's pretty much the time we can kiss our asses goodbye. We'll see, folks. I hope the filming industry will produce more films like this rather than some shitty movies (titles not mentioned).

Got back, drizzling outside, had a hot shower and I dived straight into my comfy bed. Suddenly, some unknown guy came to see my room as he's interested in renting it. There goes my sleep. Damn! Dead tired but never got the chance to close my eyes for even a short 10 minutes. So, I started loading my youtube for Amazing Race AGAIN!

I like squatting on my office chair (you know, those chairs with wheels) and roll across my room. As usual, I squatted on it and glide from my bed to the table even though the distance is only about 4 feet or so. I gave myself a mighty push and felt my hair was flying stylishly for a moment. And guess what? I couldn't brake it time! BANG!!! I hit my freaking ass leg straight into the table. As a result, I got a souvenir for that, which is a bluish black bruise measuring 3.5cm just below my knee. Lovely!

The evidence after the hit and run accident

Gosh! I wonder why I always knock onto things. Last week was my god damn face and now, my leg. Could I be more dumber than ever? (More dumber? Can we write like that? Whatever!). I think this might be one of the side effects of my rotting process. Anyway, it's no big deal. I'm tough. Yes, I am. Hahaha! Feeling happy for seeing a good film today. It pays off!

This is another side effect. I really love acting silly lately!

Good night!~

A Curvy November

Last night and in fact, a few nights before, I told myself to get to bed before 1am but yet again, as usual, I couldn't. Why, you might ask? Well, because .......... I was just an episode away from the finale of the freaking Amazing Race season 9. I felt reluctant to go to bed with the thought and curiosity in my mind, thinking and guessing who will be the winner. So, I further delayed my sleeping time to another 2 hours. Wise choice, huh? I wonder how damaged my pathetic liver is. YES!!! The team that I had been rooting for (the HIPPIES) won! Yahoo~~~ Ok, enough with my freaking Amazing Race.

Woke up at 11am, feeling not so awake though, with heavy eye lids and uncollected soul. Perhaps my soul was still wandering in dreamy land. As I strolled my way to the washroom, I slammed my god damn face into the door. I was so tired that I didn't notice I was actually one step off the opening. Yea, that's funny, keep laughing. DANG IT!!! No cuts and bruises though, for I'm thick-faced. Hahahaha.

It's a Saturday and it's not quite possible for us (brother and me) to stay quietly at home. That's so not us! No idea where to go at first. But anyway, final decision ---> we're going to The Curve. The last time I went there was like...more than a year ago? Couldn't really remember. Feeling good to go there for a change, instead of always going to Pavilion or MidValley. Because there is less m people here, though it's inevitable.

We had lunch at Kim Gary and then proceeded to photoshooting session. The model wasn't me, of course. Just took some random shots of the surroundings. Guess you are tired of my long winded and wordy lame post by now? Alright, to save you from boredom, here are some of the shots. Haha... Sounds like I'm giving you two shots of Johnnie Walker.

Splashes!

Cascading miniature waterfall

More cascades!

Purposely post this photo in case you are missing the blogger already :P See what I meant by thick-faced me?

e @ Curve. Not much to see or walk here.

Let the bloody picture speak for itself

I'm in New York City. LOL! This is officially one of my favourite piece

Not supposed to take photos there for unknown reasons . Full stop.

My so called mergence of Dubai and Milan. Silly me!

Yup. This is indeed the ceiling of The Curve. Artistic?

After all these photoshootings, of course we did some shopping! I bought myself 3 shirts from Brands Outlet at Ikano. Well, I must pamper myself a little and get myself something so as not to get disappointed with nothing after 4 hours of walk (excuses), right? And I also bought a set of...erm...er....don't really know what it is called. Those containers for salt and sugar?? Got it? Yea, whatever. Bought that from IKEA for our new home =)

As I was happily shopping, she miss called me again. Why again? Because this had been the third or fourth times. I don't know what is wrong with her. Suddenly said that she saw me somewhere, but the fact was she wasn't even there (Another friend told me she's actually at another place with him. That's why I knew she wasn't there). Wonder why she wanna do that. Hmm... She's kinda freaking me out now.

I have no idea since when I became so rude. But I love it. All 3 of them


Last but not least, the prize of the day...
A wooden giraffe peg from My Playground redeemed with 3 receipts

Went home, feeling tired but contented, I jumped right into bed. Did not plan to sleep though but it's hard not to fall asleep, you know. So, God's will, I dozed off. I wasn't awake until I heard several faint sounds resembling the nudges and message alerts in msn. I was standing at the entrance of a place called dreamy land, with one foot stepping into it. In my subconscious state, I knew some one was nudging and calling me but I was too tired to reply. Ok, it was really getting on my nerves as the nudges became more frequent. Squinting my eyes, I saw four blinking orange tabs on my lappy screen. That was when I was forced to spring out of bed, eventually.

Feeling much more awake when the night falls deeper. Really enjoy blogging late at night when every one is supposed to be sleeping. Some more, feeling thirsty now. Wish I could have a glass of chilled lemonade as an immediate thirst quencher. Oh yeah, speaking of lemonade, I have a story to share. The other day, as I went to buy lunch, I observed the process of making lemonade while waiting for my food. The waitress threw in a slice of lemon (yes, only one lonely slice), half a bag of sugar, add in water and stirred. And Ta Da...there's your lemonade! God! I can't believe I used to drink that shit! I'll be surprised if we don't die of diabetes from drinking it. God damn it, now I want some lemonade! I'm a hypocrite, I know, alright! Whatever. And I'm a so-whatever type of person. Well, whatever! What freaking ever!
Wanna get my drink now as I'm feeling severely dehydrated.

P/s : Will try to update my blog regularly. Keep in touch, mates! :P

I'm still alive

Hey peeps, have you guys been missing me? I know some of you might have been wondering where the hell I am or what I'm doing. Right? Right?? Alright, whatever! Somebody had been complaining and whining constantly about how disappointed they were when they typed in my blog address into the URL space, only to find out that my latest post was still 'Just For FUN!!!' and I haven't posted anything for the past 3 weeks or so. And guess what? Yea, they were right! Thank you guys so much for being my supportive readers. I don't even know I have fans here. Sweat =.=''' I realize that my blogging habit had somehow become very passive recently. So I just thought of posting some lame shits for the sake of feeding my pathetic anorexic blog. Oh, and not forgetting to satisfy my beloved readers. Heeeheee...

Let me review what I had been doing recently. To be honest, I stayed in my room almost 24/7 everyday just to watch all seasons of Amazing Race, starting from the very first season. Yea, call me outdated, slow paced or whatever. Who cares? I just enjoy watching this reality show so much. It's so addictive that I could hardly stop. I kept loading my youtube (well, yes, I watched in youtube since I couldn't find it elsewhere) after every part, even if it stopped every 10 minutes. But hey, it's really fun to watch, for Christ sake!

I always enjoy traveling but this show had really further activated the travel bugs in me. Not really to say that I want to join the race (due to the fact that I'm lacking in physical and probably mental strengths) but I do really want to travel to those breathtaking places. Well, not all of them though (don't really like India). Those contestants were darn good racers. By good, I mean really good, as in competitive, fast, strong, smart, bla bla bla. I really admire their spirits and determinations to win the million dollars. I was not just watching for fun, ok? I'm learning to be strongly determined in what ever I do because I certainly believe that determination would finally lead us to victory! Yeah!

These are some of my favourite highlights of the Amazing Race season 14 (my favourite season). Go Go Go Jaime & Cara and Margie & Luke!!! Jaime & Cara was the first ever all-females team to make it to the final 3 in the history of Amazing Race. Woohoo!~

A priceless sneeze from Kisha (Season 14) at minute 8.58


Kisha and Jen fighting over the Roadblock. So damn funny starting from minute 4.26. I couldn't help but kept laughing and replaying. P/s : Focus on Kisha's expression


See how Luke painted Margie's (his mom's) face from minute 3.48. Margie kept looking at the mirror and surprised to see herself! He is so adorable and his mom looks damn funny

Besides watching all these racings, I also did some other things, of course. I had meeting with my supervisor in UM, had a hair trim and not to be missed, shopping!!! I'm not gonna talk about the meeting here (cause the mood is just not right!). And I'm not gonna show you a photo of the recent me because you might not be interested to see it anyway. But I'll be showing you this.

Extremely stressful reading those sleep-inducing & mind-torturing scientific journals. Enough said!

And this is my shopping result. Yea, my first GAP, baby!!!

Oh yes. I did watch some movies too. Jennifer's Body featuring the so-called irresistible Megan Fox and cutie Amanda Seyfried was a thumbs down for me. Rather lesbish....hmmm. Another movie I watched was Ninja, which is a must-not-watch. You can predict the whole story and it's just plain boring. Some more the guy sitting behind me kept kicking my seat whenever some one was killed. I don't know what's wrong with his reflex system. I felt like turning around and slapping him. It's so not cool, dude!!!

And so, that's my latest update. Guess I had made it long enough for this post. Till then. I wanna continue racing. Super excited! Bye~


BOO

~Happy belated Halloween~
