Holiday mood

Haha, i'm in the holiday mood, mainly cos most of my frens are finally free and i can make some time to go out with them. Don't care if i have the flu, jus wanna get out of the endless cycle of mindless work and mindless play. Hmm it's been pretty good so far.

Heh, I've watched 2 movies recently, 'Shutter' and 'Alexander', well both weren't exactly unmitigated disasters, but ended up rather disappointing... Problem with shutter... Immature audience, lol, teenage girls were screaming in the intro, the scary parts the NON-scary parts and even the parts that only looked like they were going to be scary... Other than that the movie is kinda obvious in some ways (*spoilers ahead skip the rest of this paragraph if you plan to watch 'Shutter' and don't want me to spoil it) The girl whom they bang isn't reported in the papers( almost standard in most ghost stories), they find a way to tell if a ghost is around them(some ghost stories use an ouija board, they use a polaroid camera, fitting it's name), the scene in the male toilet where he is handed a toilet roll(dun u jus hate it when u have to go and there's no paper?), by something/someone? with long painted nails, he bangs the door open to find...a Transvestite that asks him if he'she can 'poo' first. Then when the ghost finally appears, as standard, she(also another standard, female ghosts are scarier) she is always behind him... Lastly cos of the hints of the doctors office of his weight anomally, my best fren and i were taking bets halfway through the show as to the ending. He bet she was sitting on his shoulders, i bet she was gripping on, like piggyback. He won the bet.

Now for 'Alexander', have you watched 'Troy'? Take the movie, compress it, and rerun the battles 3 times from different angles, and you have a rough approximation of what 'Alexander' is like. My friend was wondering if he saw the movie before, he had a sense of deja vu, then realised two of the scenes in 'Alexander' if seen in a mirror image, was found in 'Try' exact positions and props... Cool Yeah.

Haha, even camp has been weird the past week or so, nthing gets done in the upper echelons of power as everyone's on vacation. As a happy result, no one in the 'small fry' divisions gets to do much work... Yours truly is actually looking for work to do for once... I mean the only work that's increased is the number of leave forms to process. And i can pretty much do tt in an hour's work... The rest, preparation of paperwork etc is practically non-existent right now...

Lastly, the 1 thing that's been taking up my time this past week... Maplestory, haha, was influenced by a friend of mine(hi pris) to play this game of mindless slaughter of creatures that actually look pretty cute. It's 2D, a almost complete rip off of pristontale, yet the reason i guess it's so popular is the multiple channel system and it's simplicity (i mean i've met and chatted with 7 yr olds in there, how diffiult can they game be?)

Anyway, the popular science website and the howstuffworks.com website are calling to me now, love those two sites... Fantastic new things to learn about, like the W16 engine(consists of two merged V8 engines), etc etc... Fun to read haha, with post again another time... Peace out

Mobilisation

Haizzzzz, there's a mobilisation this weekend for my camp..., mean si can't realy make much plans... oh well, nvm...

In other news, I've gotten re-addicted to gunbound thanks (or no thanks) to pris... Plus the fact that i stay at home every night with nothing to do. Now you church people know why I never mind you asking me to do stuff on weekday nights. Ah well, life of an undesirable NSman. Heh, end up being an old guy playing gb -.-...

Wanna watch 'The Incredibles', need some light entertainment tt's sorely lacking in my life. Anyone care to watch it with me? Should be free... If i'm lucky.. sigh...

This post kinda lame, will post in future when i HAVE something to post abt.

BTW, Happy B'day Hern Ping, noe u'll never read this, I don't know why i bother, but end of day u still my cousin yeah? Pray to God you'll find ur proper path someday (hopefully soon). Pray that He will take care of you, especially that weak knee of urs, and tt God will provide. Finally 19 yeah... All the best, God bless...

Basketball

Heh, I'd nearly forgotten how much I like to play basketball, true I'm not a fantastic player like my cousin, or have oodles of talent like several of my church friends, or even a decade of experience, another church friend. But, I really like the sport cos sometimes the goal is so easy to achieve yet so difficult... And everything depends on teamwork most of the time. To me teamwok isn't always about being able to use every player all the time, but more of... the right tool for the right job. Haha, getting things done is fun :), can either, use fake, pass, dribble, force or tactics, or all of them together haha... Love it best when you know your friends so well, you know what to do and expect when I play with or against them.

Hope I can get another chance to play this much bball again in the near future. 6hrs on sat and 3 hrs today :) can't stop smiling
