Boobs galore!

Went to watch "Curse of the golden flower" yesterday...Didnt have much expectation as I have watched "Hero" and "House of Flying daggers" and was totally bored to tears. To my surprise, this one was quite easy to follow...not becos of the boobs...haha. But there were really so many scenes with bouncing boobs that its abit difficult to concentrate on the story. Gong li acting was really good and in my opinion way better than Zhang ziyi who is so over rated. Jay chou was just....funny. His acting was okay, not that there were alot of scenes for him to act in the first place. But the funny thing was, everytime he comes on screen or makes an expression, the entire theatre will laugh! I guess everyone just went to see how bad Jay's acting was...which is quite a sad thing considering he is not a professional actor. Acting beside Gong li and Chow Yun Fatt just makes him look like a golden prop. The story was quite similar with a show I watched recently...."The banquet"...too similar in fact...incest, betrayal, plotting against the king...and alot of ballet-like fighting sequences...I feel that asian directors are trying to hard to impress the people in Hollywood..and all these ancient epics with elaborate sets and fanciful fight scenes just get a little too artificial..Face it Zhang Yimou, there can only be one Ang Lee..

Lonely Christmas...

Wat a boring christmas.. got no one to go out with..:( Sigh, spent the past two days watching dvds and sleeping. Tomorrow is working day again...Cant believe I spent my christmas holidays like that...sian

My mum...

Took my mum to the clinic a few months back...and the doctor asked her to get a blood pressure monitoring device..she refuse to buy cos its 90 bucks...then she say i got bonus ask me buy for her...So yesterday I got one for her and this is what i got this morning...

Mum: Wah! 146 so high....I am dying liao....I dont believe... (Put it on and try again)
Mum: This thing is so stupid...why must put on the left hand...cannot put on the right hand...
Mum: Wah! now 136....this thing is not accurate one! (Try again)
Mum: 134! ok...much better...still quite high...

A week in review....looking forward to 2007

Wow..the last time I blogged was 10th December...hmmm. Think I lost the motivation to write...or maybe my life is just too boring.

Tuesday...

Watched Eragon with Eileen..Haha hey Bubbles, thanks for inviting me and remember to remind me to return you the money hor! In case I forget...Eragon was quite a bad movie....IMHO...Its definitely not Lord of the Rings material ..not even Harry Potter...maybe my expectation was too high. ..But I really thought it could be better. The movie was too rushed and the dialogue sucked so bad I thought I was watching a video game. The final battle felt like the director ran out of budget and just wanted to finish the film as quickly as possible...and he did! The movie was just 1 and half hour! The ending opened up the opportunity for a sequel which makes me wonder....after this sh*t would anyone want to watch the sequel?

Wednesday...

Met my fren Julius to buy his homemade truffles for my other fren...He is selling his own brand of chocolate truffles at the age of 21! Really impressive and his chocolates are not bad...I have tasted and my fren also says its nice! Haha...abit of a promotion here but do give his chocolates a try if you are craving for chocolates or just running out of gift ideas.

His website is : http://juliustruffles.blogspot.com/ Feel free to take a look!

Thursday....

Its been so long since I last met my secondary school frens...and on thursday I met two of them...Aaron and Adrian. Had our dinner at Ding Tai Feng. It was a nice gathering and we had quite a lot to talk about even though its been like 4 yrs since I last met Aaron. But have to say Ding Tai Feng sucks. Hahaha....I mean Crystal Jade noodles are okay but at least its xiao long bao is really good...but at DTF...nothing was nice...the noodles was so bland and the xiao long bao was...just xiao. I really wonder why people queue up for such mediocre food ..That was going to be my first and my last time there.

Friday....

Had half a working day in the morning and then had christmas lunch and then games and karaoke at Orchid Country Club...As usual, catered lunch at my company is nthing great...but not too bad this time...I mean I had worse...imagine...tzi char... roast duck...laksa in lunch boxes for company lunch..at least this time it was buffet style. I was really abit sian when I heard we had to play games...I mean com' on...we are so old oreadi still play those 'orientation games'? But it turned out quite fun..bursting balloons...musical chairs...lol ...though childish but it was the first time me and my colleagues really let our hair down and just have some fun. Not too bad at all...

Today....

Went for my medical checkup for my insurance policy early in the morning..woke up at 630 just to be there at 8am! @#$%@ And my insurance agent didnt even accompany me! haha I heard from the nurse that usually the agent will be "nice" and accompany their client for the checkup. Luckily...my fren keith was kind enough to accompany me and the waiting was not that boring with someone to talk to...after that I walked from orchard to plaza sing to bugis to settle quite a number of things...Open new bank account...did a standing order for mthly funds transfer...paid my credit card bills...and then to complain about my pacific internet bill...really f**king pissed with them. Called in June to cancel my email spam guard which cost me 4 bucks a month...and I totally not using it...then the bill in july still reflect it..called and emailed them again...they told me maybe they still processing so next month shd be cancelled...then again..reflected in my August bill....by then I really cant be bothered liao...then last mth I decided to terminate my subscription and I told the lady about it and she told me "Oh, I will write down for you and next month they will refund you the amount you paid since June" ....then later I received a bill again asking me to pay 4 bucks again for the month of december! F**king lousy service man! Pacific Internet ...Pui! Not that I bother about the 4 bucks a month..but its just pisses me off that after all that trouble and nothing is done!

Tomorrow....

Tomorrow is christmas eve...as usual I have nothing to do again..bought some dvds so probably I will just stay at home and watch them...At least I get to rest on Monday...after working so hard for the past month I seriously need a rest and hopefully get a big fat bonus next month! haha..Hi boss are u reading my blog?
