pooh can fly

US, now and then.

very obvious, the photo quality is better now, with the powershot given to me by jingfu. darling's very spikey hair and his flat flat hair (cos he didn't style la), my coloured hair and black hair, coincidentally we wore black three years back and now, so white. i guess our appearance didn't change much and generally, we looked almost the same.

time flies, that was our first kite flying date and moving on, here we are in the present where we now have a saving plan to get to where we would be in the years to come.

yes, that would mean the mentioned cannot happen too frequently, no-planning shopping trips, luxurious outings, expensive restaurant etc etc etc. it would be good to cut down on meals like supper since it only makes us get fatter.

it's like cycling and swimming sound cheaper than the movies. (but more tiring since it's like exercising, can always spend time at east coast, or perhaps punggol cos nearer, to fly kites since we have bikes to ride on.)



with powershot, we didn't miss the chance to beat the timer for the fun funny photos.



we attached another two more bundle of threads from other kites found lying around (think their kites broken), and managed to compete with other kites flying up there.



a pity it started to rain after few hours. we thought we could lie there and relax but the raindrops started to fall. took a great time and effort (wind was getting stronger) pulling the kite back (three-in-one thread, very long ok) before we ran for the shelter.

visited the gallery on water since we have nothing better to do as well. nothing much inside, felt so much like i was in science centre actually. haha.

good day, a little exhausted, thus also allowed me to rest earlier when i was home.

i need good materials, really light weight, to make a good kite. :D

pictures (:

finally some pictures after the wordy entry.

here's our little picnic at east coast, photos all stolen from here. i didn't take any photo though i brought along my camera.






that day is so windy that the picnic mat can fly! such a pity i didn't get to do my favourite thing. towards evening time, cow and i rode to the end of the east coast and i suggested to take the kite out just to play for a short 10 minutes. for some i-dunno-whatever reasons, the kite stayed in the bag. i didn't even have the ice cream i wanted to. ):

moving on to the green tea ice cream which we thought we wouldn't enjoy but surprised our tastebuds (:




yes yes, im not sure why but the keyboard is working again. i think the chanting in the previous entry did work pretty well. im not sure when is the next time it will fall ill again, afterall it's quite old for a laptop now.

currently not in a very good mood! ):

tomorrow, Late morning and early afternoon showers with thunder, says NEA. not sure if the kite flying will happen at marina barrage, which we have been talking for quite some time.

suddenly the memories of our second date comes into my mind, where it happened a little sudden, our little kite flying session at marina south, with some wasted kites and sticks before ultraman really got up into the sky. and that ultraman which is more than two years already, is still hanging in my room.

time flies.

late-dates

i have actually so much to blog about, especially after i started working. yes like finally and darling said it's time to get my ass off the chair and start working hard. and in fact in two month's time im going over to gms. (and it happens, now afc's got opening and called me up few hours ago, but just too late!)

we watched transformers. one of the highly anticipated movie by many. booked the tickets on monday just before it sneaked. so, right after our ride from cck down hougang on tuesday, (plus the operation on tyres that happened unexpectedly), sam kk, fu and me hurried down to amk hub to meet weihao for the show. not super awesome for me as what i've heard from other friends. i think the duration was a little lonnggg. (: but lucky for my little homework on optimus prime, megatrons and allsparks, im able to really go with the film. good jobs with the CG, i love it.

went out with the girls and boyfriends on sunday. excited, because i thought i would be flying kite again (that's the very first thing i did when i got there), but to much disappointment, i didn't manage to get poohbear flying in the sky. ): darling promised too many kite flying sessions, but it just didn't happened. (fyi kite flying is one of our special moments.) but we did rode to and back from east coast with about 36km of perspiration. AND we reached home and went to chompchomp for dinner just in time together with the girls who cabbed down.

i've never tried mof until yesterday. their desserts were... like aijisen's. haha and though darling and i never like green tea ice cream, we managed to convince ourselves to have one since it's their specialty. (: good it turned out really nice. and during that super long waiting time (yes we only ordered one dessert), we came out with a super big saving plan that's supposed to start TODAY. yes be disciplined splendthrift bummies! (if not 2011 will not happen!)

motivation motivation!

im very sad because i don't see photos on my blog ):
lappy, recover recover~ *chants

keyboard... ARGH!

im back!

(my last week of work with gms. leap years people.)

im back to mediacorp for a temporary position starting sometime next week. after being away for 1 year's time, here i am back to the company, same department. all thanks to ms ang and the deputy chief editor. anyway, it's just six weeks but im all so thankful already. (:

not sure what to expect and what is expected of me too. still, im up for it. all ready and GO! GO! GO! :D

till then!

waters

gone swimming with gilian yesterday afternoon where we spent hours in the pool, exercising and doing some stupid things. we wish vanessa was part of the stupidoos, haha. soon soon, we'll plan it ok? (:

credits to gilian for the photos. for some reasons, we were trying to jump, but none of the photos were successfully taken. i love jumping (:



LAND OF THE LOST



can't believe we actually watched this movie! i guess we have caught all the, supposedly, good movies and leaving us without much choices to choose from except land of the lost.

it's a really light-hearted movie. in fact no sense, crappy and lame comedy. didn't expect too much out of it in the first place, just wanted to have a good laugh (:

the four of us, kk sam fu and i laughed so loudly throughout the show. i have to stop darling from laughing cos he can't seem to stop. hahaha!

i see that land of the lost didn't fetch much good reviews from critics. expectations so high for what, sometime all we need is just a good laugh at the nothingness of the movie. :D

anyway, transformers sneaking out next tuesday! box office hit, i mean twenty-six slots are open on friday for cathay at cineleisure, even amk opening two theatres, same timing for transformers. i believe it's gonna be a blasty. just told darling we should grab the tickets for tuesday night at amk and head right there for it after the ride back to my house!

not sure about harry potter but apparently UP seems pretty good too (:

drag me to hell

true horror is back.

this was how the movie was advertised.

in fact, the trailer did manage to convince me that, yes it's gonna be scary, and that's what draw me to watch it, though im never a fan of horror.

a very simple plot to begin with. christine brown, a very ordinary girl working as a loan officer was trying hard to get promoted. thus on this very occasion, she rejected this disgusting scary old gyspy lady her loan extension, causing her to lose her house. shamed in front of all the others, she was determined to get back at her, with a curse in the button, by summoning lamia (the demon spirit) and to make christine brown burn in hell for eternity.

if you're looking for something close to shutter, no way you think drag me to hell will satisfy you.

it's a horror film with a comedic effect. eh actually disgusting too.

imagine everyone laughing when the gypsy woman, who passed away later on, showed up to scare christine brown. and each time, she pretty much just vomits disgusting stuff into christine's mouth, maggots, juice, saliva, even her fist which she punched her right into her mouth(please, i meant entirely inside). it's hilarious, the punching part, haha.

i enjoyed the first half of the movie, but towards the end, i could foresee the ending. trying too hard for that twist at the end which did not turn out very well for me. too expected!

if you're not a hot fan of horror, you can try watching it. it puts you on a very different perspective of how scary movies can be handled, that includes how you can fake the audience with a super scary trailer which just turned out to be funnier than frightening.


*anyway, lamia is actually a greek mythology of a child-eating demon, not related to the show though. not sure why but greek mythology always seem very mysterious and interesting to me. say, do you know the story behind your own horoscope?
