bahh. i'm sick. got cough. and it's 3 days to christmas. stuck at home today and tmr. which means i have to watch narnia NEXT YEAR. since i'm leaving on sat coming back on 30th at midnight. how crappy can it get.


watched flightplan on dvd. omg its sucks to the core. what kind of pathetic bomb doesn't blow up the plane. red eye was soOO much better. cause it had rachel mcadams. but it was really better.


then that same night i watched ONE MISSED CALL. ok so it's an old jap horror flick, prequel of red candy. but it was freaky. the twist was good. ok so it's basically abt this woman, her friend gets this call and its this really spooky ringtone that's not in her phone. so she doesn't answer and gets a MISSED CALL. so she checks her voice mail and its from her OWN number. but 3 DAYS LATER. its her own voice saying : Oh no it's raining, followed by a horrible scream. so guess what? three days later she says the exact same thing and gets killed by the ghost. pushed down from a bridge onto a train. her arm and leg gets severed and her severed arm is still holding her handphone cause she was talking to the main character when she died.. and the severed arm just starts dialling another number. omg. so more ppl die after getting the call from that ghost.


thank goodness they're using jap phones. if they were using nokia i would have just died. please don't make a hollywood remake. i wanna get the sequel red candy.


oh yah. and what made things worst was that like 10 minutes after watching the show, i was in bed and got a message. so i opened it and it was a BLANK MESSAGE, from SOMEONE I DIDN'T HAVE IN MY PHONEBOOK. ohgosh. i freaked out and like ran into my brother's room. haha then called tt number but no one answered. so just deleted everything.


oh and if anyone drops by please do tag. its damn boring lah. so dead.


there are many things that i would like to say to you
but i don't know how

i'm stuck at home trying to finish my work.
one essay and compre left plus SAT preparation.
but i just can't seem to get anything done.
and i'm leaving on Saturday.
i wish i could spend Christmas back in Singapore for once.
it's been a long time.
well i don't mind nicer places.
like disneyland.
but maybe the stone forest will be nice.
hmm.


i'm not sure if i'm tired of going through this all over again.
but i know that i'll continue because this time i'm sure of it.
and i know that you're worth it.


And if this is a game, well I don't wanna play
It means too much to me and you're so far away
Well I will wait for you, we could see this through
Now it's up to you please tell me, you feel the same way too

Try
And I promise you I'll try

I need you, I bleed you
I would give up breathing for you
If you would take my breath and hold it in

sleepy. woke up early today to try to catch the 10.20 pride and prejudice at cine but couldn't get out of bed. couldn't sleep last night. so ended up watching the 12pm show at ps. Sorry! went to baking boys at city link before that. too bad there were no free samples. walked around aimlessly till 11plus then went to ps. stupid xbox place. if you call it a movie room you should expect people to think you can watch movies there right? but nooooooooo it's just a private room where u can play xbox. -__-


so watched p&p. not bad lah. not as boring as i expected. and keira's so cute when she laughs. haha did you know she played natalie portman's decoy amidala in episode 1? so cool. don't believe i finished all the popcorn. then went to taka to get presents for my family. got a tie clip for my dad.. dunno whether he's happy with it. got a nice revolving photo frame for my mom and artemis fowl's opal incident for my bro at borders. dead broke now. haha. and my mom. so irritating. she was happy but then she had to spoil it all by saying: you got this from the home section right? 32 dollars? haiiiiiiii ok so it was 34 but.....


oh oh oh along the way from taka to borders we got conned into going into the narnia exhibit thingy near orchard mrt. the big field there. $3 to walk into the wardrobe and step into the magical world of narnia! OMG WHAT A RIP OFF. 'snow' was soap suds hahahaha. and it was so boring. except the white witch part. a bit scary when she walks towards you. and poor actors, singaporean audiences don't want to interact with them even though they're told to do so. i guess its like the invisible wall between actors and audience that i vaguely rmb lee tuck leong teaching us about in sec two when we did merchant of venice.


anyway, moral of the story is : don't spend any money in the narnia exhibit.
had a fun day today (:
gonna sleep early and hopefully can wake to go for a jog.

okay. i had an extremely unhealthy dinner today. nachos and popcorn. that's cause freaking king kong took 3 whole hours. 5.40 to 8.40. my brother asked me out to watch king kong today. how cool is that. haha. so i made my way to bishan straight after the party we held for the children at canossaville home. ate ya kun kaya toast then went to the cinema, with nachos and popcorn. and lucky we weren't late. cause for the first time gv only had 5 min of adverts. they showed the trailer for MI3 which opens on 05/05/06 and narnia's trailer then they started the movie.


and okay first part of the show was a bit draggy but when they got to the island. it was amazing. makes jurassic park looks like child's play. i tell you after watching kong you'll feel the same way as me: that jurassic park is just a a giant ripoff of kong. the part where kong fights the 3 t-rexes was just. cool. seriously. and the part where they had to fight off the giant insects was spine chilling. and yeah it was quite funny too. when kong tried to impress the girl. but its a sad movie. you just can't help feeling for the big ape. he's so cute. HAHA.


actually i was just looking forward to that famous scene when he climbs up to the tp of the empire state and swats down planes. too bad director changed the script. now he had no flag to hang on. poor guy. i'm gonna dream of gorillas tonight.


You got to press it on you
You just, think it, that's what you do it baby
Hold it down there

Never did no harm
It's DARE

the day after the party, i went for the interclub judo comp at portsdown. haha guys 4 teams and girls 2 teams so the girls all got medals. bah. we didn't get any. okay the first round was a total thrashing lah. i mean how to win ppl 30 kg heavier and 20cm taller than u.


then 3rd place match. we won 2 lost 2 and i was the last guy. so i fought this 31 year old jap guy. okay so he was orange belt too but he had like tons more experience. so i fell too the ground after attempting a throw. and guess what he armlocked my left arm. it cracked 7 times. but i still didn't tap cause it would have caused us to lose. so after the ref stopped it the jap guy came up and asked are u ok. hahahah. i couldn't feel my left arm anymore lah.


then he armlocked my right arm but didn't really get it cause my right arm is stronger. then he choked me but i didn't tap too. haha everyone was like telling me i was crazy. so ended up in a draw and our team lost by points. boo. but nvm. was a good experience.


although now i pulled the muscle near my elbow so i can't train for some time. my left arm is practically useless now lah. bleah.

just wanna thank everyone who came down for my party and made its loads of fun!
with the karaoke revolution. thnx jx. and the pes5 and the smackdown and burnout and pingpong and bombbags and sparklers and of course mahjong. oh yah. and shutter at 4am. and we threw the waterproof uno cards into the fishtank so it looked like the fish were playin uno. haha.

thanks to all those ppl who got me what i wanted! like cds and earphones.

ok i won't really go into the details for the rest of the days cause we basically just went shopping the rest of the time. bought a lot of stuff. and korea is just slightly cheaper than japan..


ok i got vans black and white checkered sneakers (: been looking all over for those. a nice black jacket that some korean star uses. dunno who also, they just put his pic beside the jacket. got ear muffs. haha. hmm lemme see what else. oh yah a lot of socks. hahaha i got spongebob socks!!! and i got this cool remote controlled car which is the size of correction tape. yeah i bought another one for my brother, thought we could race or something. but guess what? they use the same frequency. so if you press forward, BOTH cars move. =.=''


oh well. sadly no BoA posters. SIGH. all stupid Bae-what's-his-name-Jun's fault. BAH. he's like everywhere lah! they even have socks with his face on them........ but i got this cool BoA DVD history of BoA, 2000-2002 i think. its damn cool lah. nv see in sg b4. yeah. S$48 but so worth it. and i also got BoA's christmas cd. last year's release but yeah can't buy in sg too. and i also got this magazine for S$16 with 21 pages of BoA. omgg. heaven. haha its all n jap but who cares.

OH on his birthday on sat we went to CARNIVORE at chijmes! the brazillian all you can eat. yum. guess what we ate. haha. no prizes there. and when we thought we had tried all the different types of meat they served they came out with CHICKEN HEART. omg. its like rubbery and chewy and bitter and has a strong aftertaste and aiyah a bit of the blood taste. eew.

stupid coach told us wrong time for grading. so we went in the afternoon when it was at 9am. bahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. have to wait till next year for my green belt.


haha ok i shall continue.


fourth day we went to lotte world!!!!!! omg so fun. its been so long since i've been to a theme park. 1.30 to 6pm. went for all the nice rides. atlantis, gyrodrop and gyroscope. all the tower drops swinging and turning thingys and rollercoasters. aiyah. basically damn fun. and i ate this chocolate covered frozen banana. absolutely delicious. they deep freeze this delmonte banana and dip it in hot chocolate fudge. wahh.


aiyah tonight not in the mood to type.

wahhh after korea, the weather here is killing me. its like i stepped into changi airport and started sweating even though there was aircon.


ok so i went there by business class. and the gap between the two is really huge lah. i mean the air steward made it an effort to remember me and my brother's name. and when i was koping my brother's bowl of potato chips while watching trainman, (the jap movie from a book abt a geek who met this woman on the bus and finally got together with her after a lot of help from his online buddies in a chat room-damn sweet) they noticed and gave me a bowl too. and their iced mocha is heavenly. so i watched trainman, charlie and the choc factory and half of kungfu mahjong on the way there.


first day, went shopping. didn't buy anything though. too tired i guess. i mean 11.45pm flight. didn't sleep at all. angelina alina and winston. haha winston's so cute lah. brought out the child in me. then we made our way to the ski resort. dinner was super good. half stramboat half bbq. pork and sotong. tried the body board on the snow but slept early cause so shagged.


then we went skiing the whole day! haha it was okaay lah. not as fun as i wish it had been. but i think that's my fault cause i suck at it. hahaha always try the steep slope then end up flying through the air. then got one time this idiot left his skiis lying around and since i hadn't (or have for that matter) learnt how to turn yet, all i could do was hit it and fly and land with a thud. so loud lah. everyone looking so malu. but alina's damn pro lah. a natural. and i had board races with winston and my brother hahaha. u know the ones u sit on and hold the sides and just slide down the slope. heh. and omg they have churros everywhere in korea YUM.
that night called them to go down to bowl/pool/arcade at the central plaza. but they decided to go to their rooms first so we missed them. me and my brother played pool. damn ex lah. S$3.30 per 10min. omg. but the service was really good. there was this table where ppl were playing for the first time. and the guy at the counter who was in a suit went to teach them for half an hour. and ends up they were at the arcade so they didn't see us. bowling was full btw.


3rd day went to mt sorak. view was great. trees all diff colour. but i didn't dare climb all the way to the top to see the sea cause i didn't trust my shoes enough. damn steep lah. dangerous coming down. then went to WATERPIA. hahahaha so fun. its like this gigantic indoor water place. spa so shuang. and i don't believe i went outside. to an OUTDOOR SWIMMING POOL IN WINTER. omg can die lah. run there, jump in. water's warm but when u get out again. and we didn't rent towels when we went out. didn't go to the outdoor hot springs cause those were even further away than the outdoor swimming pool. did the big slide. but didn't bring goggles so couldn't see much. hahaha. i spa-ed so much until skin all wrinkled. so gross. then i had WHITE MOCHA JAVALANCHE at java city. damn nice coffee joint inside waterpia. hahaha heavenly. white chocolate mocha.
yup. our mountain resort had a LAN SHOP. haha and a pool room. ok not really a pool room cause there was only one pool table, ok they call it pocketball there. the more popular game in korea is one i've never seen before. haha. the table has no pockets. and you play with two red and two white balls. they're bigger than pool balls. and the aim (i think, after watching ppl play a lot) is to use one of the white balls to hit both red balls. as in hit one red then bounce of to hit another one. if you don't hit both reds then your turn is over. then they keep score. its freakin hard lah. have to calculate every shot. needs much more skill than pool in my opinion. yeah so played with angelina, alina and winston later on. my brother was slpin. it was like alina's first time playing and still so pro. haha she's like a natural at everything.

the lan shop was so cool lah. all the super ultra cool korean games that will prob never make it to singapore's shores. kart racer. guns? and some cool 2d game sort of like maple but MUCH better graphics, 3d rendering and cooler skills. there was like a small girl playing tt game prob abt 6/7 years old and angelina was saying that the girl was so cool she's like the type of girl who beats her brother at computer games everytime. haha. but the dominant game was starcraft lah. they were even showing starcraft matches on national tv. they even had kof98 online.


yeahh. haha okay i'm gonna continue tmr. quite tired and i have to wake up early for training.
