This year, i did not watch as much movies as i did for the past years….i realized that from August to November it was the busiest period till i nv really got to watch any…ARGG….

To conclude, i have watched 19 movies this year. The worst one has got to be Ong Bak 2, which i have already foresee would be the lousiest movie….for obvious reasons….even 风云2 is better.

This is a good movie year….most of the movies i like it….so now i have to choose my favorite. I have some personal favorites…very hard to choose…. hmm of the below….i have to say my 1st choice will be The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Storyline still attracts me the most.

It seems like every year on this day, everyone including me will look back on the past year and ponder….have we fulfill our resolutions? Did we achieve anything? Etc Etc….

I’m kinda tired of doing this though cos i nv seem to be able to fulfill my resolution….especially the part on losing weight hahaha instead…i’m gaining like nobody business….

let’s see….had our customary wedding this year and started the new MRS life with The ANG. Nothing much is changed except that i need to do houseworks….alot of houseworks hahaha

I left D and joined S…pay still not satisfied hahaha but generally ok lah. Gotten into more shitholes than i can imagined…and i realized my stress threshold is quite amazing although i did breakdown on a couple of occasions….

1 the organizers for AFA and it is 1 hell of an experience….scary yes, memorable hell yes…. (i miss May’N already….n Seta-san hahhah)

hmm frankly speaking, i cant really remember much about 2009…so wats my resolutions for 2010? I’m not going to really fix any….i just hope my dear family and people that i care about will stay healthy and happy, try to save more money and lastly, try to not spend so much time at work and more time with The ANG. hahahah oh oh and the resolution that i always cannot achieve….to lose weight.

Happy New Year!!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

Bestie is away on their honeymoon so this Christmas its a bit lonely for me cos usually we will spend our Christmas together.

Anyway, was initially just planning on lazing at home but at the very last min, The ANG and i decided to just walk over to Yishun10 to catch the movie 十月围城.

Its not bad a movie, like the story and all the different characters. No spoilers here but i just have to say, the joker of the show has got to be 曾志伟 & 黎明. Everyone in the theater was luffing at 曾志伟 chinese (in his own voice) and 黎明 is machiam like the 中华英雄.

ok, the next movie would be 刺陵…..JAY!!!!

I still wanna watch AVATAR in 3D….

I dun usually listen to Korean songs or watch Korean drama and the only Korean groups that i know of are Super Junior and Wonder Girls hahaha

Super Junior got a lot of boys loh….but i only find Lee Donghae and Leeteu good looking…then not long ago, heard their chinese song…yup you heard me, chinese. They formed a group to target the chinese market….call Super Junior M. Smart company.

Anyway, saw them in some variety show and oh my oh my….Lee Donghae is like super cute can…. i might just go and find their album and check out their songs.

Here is him in one of Ariel Lin’s MV…

Their new song Super Girl (in Korean), nicer than the mandarin version

And of one Super Junior famous song, Sorry Sorry

I have got to admit, i have no intention of watching this movie in the first place. I still remember reading about how much the movie cost to be produced and i was asked by a fren if i was going to watch it (me being a movie freak)…..i told him i wasn’t interested.

Then just 2 days after release, everyone on my facebook and twitter is talking about the movie, some even saying it is the best movie in 2009. Oh that got me interested…i have got to watch this movie.

After the XMAS party at Ping’s house, we were planning to watch either AVATAR or Bodyguards & Assassins but we underestimate the power of these 2 newly released movies….even YISHUN 10 oso Full House loh!!!!

Super disappointed, i die die wan to watch over the weekend so today, dragged The ANG to watch AVATAR, and boy were we both surprised!! It is really a very nice show….the plot was good (although a bit predictable) and the special effects were WOW!!! It was so real…..it could well be one of my top 3 favorite movies in 2009. Especially love the forest, the trees and the weird weird flowers….and i really like the character of the Jack Sully

So good i might wanna go watch again in 3D….any takers???

Took for granted that no one will go to Yishun 10 GV for movies so we happily played mahjong until 15 mins b4 the show starts……

Result?? Bodyguards and assassins left 1st row and Avatar left 3rd row…

Well done…..

Ha Ha….i have already heard reviews that the movie sucks with no plot but the CG is still pretty decent so i just decided to go ahead. I mean, we have all watched 风云雄霸天下 11 years back so have to go watch 风云2 right??

Anyway, it is really plotless, but i have to say the CG was pretty ok. Somehow the fighting scenes reminded me and The ANG of “300″. I kinda like how some of the fighting scenes were presented though, like comic strips style…and i’m impressed, i tot the “Pang” brothers were only good in directing horror movies but they did pretty well here.

Oh Oh and i was so amused with 1 of their effects. It is almost like a Harry Potter scene!!! The kind of black smoke when a death-eater appears….it KEEPS appearing in 风云2 and i just cannot stopped associating.

All in all, i still think 风云雄霸天下 is better….oh side track… i was arguing with The ANG that 楚楚 in 风云 was acted by 舒奇and not 杨恭如 but he dun believe. After checking, i confirmed liao loh….i win….杨恭如’s character is actually 孔慈…but my ultimate fav character is 文丑丑 ahaha he super funny can….

SOZO is shifting office!!!!

Bye Bye Old School and Hello CBD!!!

Old School has been ok but the inaccessible location plus the lack of food is a big No No. We have to call a cab every single time we go for meetings and food is so inaccessible that we sometimes have to resort to being a regular customer at Macdonalds. (Maybe that’s y i won the phone!!!)

Anyhoo, we are shifting back to CBD, China Square in particular. I love the area. OSM office was @ Amoy Street and i grew to love it there. Food options are plentiful and transport accessible. Back to civilized world!!!

Some photos i took.

This is what i call Teh Peng!!!!!

Caught the preview show of The Broadway Beng: Jiak Liu Lian with xiao teow yesterdae at the Liu Lian. The show is kan si lang eh funny loh. Sebastian Tan really is very good. He sings damn well in Hokkien. My favorite parts would be “Nan Qiao High”, him singing the OST of “爱” and “家后” and his damn catchy oh oh oh oh “super junior” song.

This is better than last year. Last year there was this part where i almost fell asleep but this year, hilarious all the way. The 8 Chio Bus oso super funny lah….

I’m sure The ANG will like it cos Ah Beng vs Ah Beng mah….but he dunwan to go…lucky i still have my watch-broadwaybeng-kaki who will soon be my study-japanese-language-kaki Xiao Teow!!! hahaha

Ok, next show, Kumar: Stripped Bare and Standing Up since our stubs can get 15% discount. Bestie might be joining as well!!!

Oh yah as i was saying, i finally took the 1st step and enrolled to learn Japanese at Ikoma. Now waiting to see if the date i want still got availability anot. I hope by AFA10 i can speak or understand basic Japanese.

Yes, I have decided. Instead of procrastinating and keep saying, I will enrol myself to start learning Japanese. I have alwaes love the Japanese culture and have been listening to Japanese songs and watching Japanese drama. (yes, i hate Korean dramas) and being in my company where Japanese is like the 2nd language, it gives me all the more reason to start learning.

Have decided to enrol in Ikoma now trying to find study buddies.

Any takers??

May’N Styles

This is May’N latest album. In love with it. Hope to see May’N soon!!

Dan Brown: Lost Symbol

The Lost Symbol is the eagerly anticipated follow-up to The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown’s No. 1 international phenomenon with 81 million copies in print worldwide, and it will once again feature Dan Brown’s unforgettable protagonist, Robert Langdon.

This book’s narrative takes place in a 12-hour period, and from the first page, Dan’s readers will feel the thrill of discovery as they follow Robert Langdon through a masterful and unexpected new landscape.

After quite a period of no time to watch movie, i insisted to go watch New Moon last Friday. Was at Shawn’s place for the post AFA party and proceeded to meet The ANG at Yishun 10 for the show.

The story in my opinion was good, most of the details was shown as per the book. 1 major highlight has got to be Jacob Black. he is damn hot in the movie….when he appeared, you can hear ooh-ing and ahh-ing in the cinema loh. (me included hahah)

He is also so good and gentle to Bella loh….if i’m Bella, i would definitely choose Jacob over Edward. Anyway 1 super downside is the sucky cliff hanging ending. So bloody abrupt!!! I was like wtf?! Still have to wait till the next installment.
