a movie; the zoo; dead bodies



the past night i was out watching a movie with a girl friend of mine --something which i stopped doing since i entered the beautiful world of NS. the movie was crap; oceans twelve somehow didn't give me that sense of thrill which ocean's eleven gave when i watched the movie maybe like three years ago. and yes marina square cineplex is screwed i can't believe that i spent 15 minutes trying to locate the damn cinema cos of their concurrent renovation works for a better future. for those of you all who wanna watch a movie at marina, enter by the ritz side or the oriental side (walk to oriental's main entrace and go up the stairs there); movie aside, managed to catch up on things with reggie after like so long of not seeing her. i have to admit that maybe there's still hope for mankind. with a person like her who's so ever willing to help others (in the area of social work) and being optimistic and all. those who know me will know that i'm the opposite. mankind is doomed. anyways i wish her the best in her pursuit of finding a good husband and settling down. (that's her plan in 5 years,she's working on it)oh after that i went to meet up with another friend of mine: ah pek who just got back from sydney for his vacation. told me lots of shit abt the new uni life overseas and stuff. seems to me there're alot of stuff which i have yet to think about. my only big worry is i hope the friend i'm going with will be able to tahan all those shit..if not i will be shit too.


woke up at 1.45pm tdy and turned on my phone...only to realised that i have 7 missed calls and 7 smses. well done. i have failed in my maintanence of SQA by waking up late. i was suppossed to meet darryl at ginza plaza at 12.30pm and go to the zoo together with kennetha nd stanley. after abt 5 minutes of calling here and there to set new timings, i proceeded to take a 5 minute express bath while darryl made his way to my house. then the best thing happened. rain fell from the heavens. it was no damper though, we did go to the zoo in the end (it has changed incredibly the last time i visited it when i was still in pri 1) though we could have spent more time there. the animals was all kinda bored as usual. i must say the best occupation in life would be an animal living in the zoo. you get to slack and eat free food until the day you die.hate people looking at you? find a corner and sleep. if you're bored you can escape the zoo and have a little odyssey of your own and yes, you get to see chicks and hunks either through the looking glass or a few feet away from the moat of your enclosure. who knows, it may seem that the zoo has come to you instead. children and guys chasing girls are definetly animals. maybe i shall get free tickets again next year.

everyday from 4 days ago i can't help but hear/see news of the tsunamis that struck acheh every breathing moment of my life. in a way, looking at the dead bodies strewn haphazardly on the once prefect shorelines of the tourist islands of asia seemed like the scene from final fantasy x, where SIN attacked the coastal town of Kilika...and also the part where they tried to destroy sin but failed. now i know why they say Life's like a game. it's depressing. and with so many people missing at all. depressing. i guess the only thing i can do right now is say prayers to those affected. because eventually, everything is emotional.
