naive, i am not

      Is it because of my more positive thinking? Recently realised that my surroundings, my friends... are full of negative ions. All appears to be countering my beliefs. Not that i am going to change my views so easily, just feel that sometimes get a little tired hearing all the negatives comments. Hey, life aren't that bad, right?

      Not that i am living in a perfect world, nor that i haven't face any problems yet. But its more due to the way you view the world. Being a listener since young, i experience changes & problems, not only what i faced but also what my friend is facing. I'll beg to differ if anyone believes that i am too young to understand the real world. Or believes that i had not grown up to survive in the real world. Hey, i am now in the working world and surviving well. Even if i do feel tired and whatsoever, it did not affect my work performance.

      haha... maybe due to lack of sleep had causing me to fight back for my stand more... getting agitated, but never behaving abnormal. haha... Alright enough of this. Recently busy working, training newcomers and helping a friend over a relationship. But the latter had ended and now i am fully employed as a listener's listener. A promotion, i joked.

      After getting a digital camera a few weeks ago, i finally get a new handphone & signed a new line under Singtel. Bought the phone at $88 cash + $150 vouchers. Nice numbers isn't it. 88. So glad that finally get my own phone but guess will only be using in a few days time. Currently, only my buddy message me using that new number. The rest who want my number, get from me through MSN, k? haha

movie marathon

      Today was a tiring day. I had spent my whole day watching movies at two locations. First up, i met Xinyi at GV@J8 for the movie Hairspray. Excellent movie... another great musical movie. Slightly more light-hearted compared to Dreamgirls. Catchy songs, colorful clothes & meaningful stories pumped up the movie. Zac Efron (from the High School Musical fame) was sauve inside the show. I am sure he attracted alot of girls. No wonder one of my friend joked that couple shouldn't watched the show. Why? Your girlfriend may forget about you and drools for that charming guy.

      Special thanks to those girls at the show. It provided the 'Live' sounds with the applause and the 'oohs' & 'ahhs'that add lots of flavours to the show. I almost thought that i went for a 'Live' Musical.

      After which, we head down to Library to borrow... alright not books... but comics... Then its movie #2 at Shaw House. This was a mistake. We shouldn't have watched it. Rogue Assassin was easily identified by me as the worst Jet Li's movie, ever. Story wasn't good enough, even though there was a twist inside. Too much talking, too little actions. The story was a mess. The flow wasn't there. You may ended up wondering what are they doing. Who is who? etc... Don't waste your money one this. It simply couldn't make the mark. Anyway, Jet is old now... just like Jackie Chan, actions seems nothing impressive while looks, skin look damn bad (many close up scenes). Just imagine, i actually almost fall asleep if not because for Xinyi's handphone. I played a game during the boring period of time. That's how much it bores me.

      The movie marathon was tiring. Thanks to the miscommunication & bickering between me & Xinyi. Alright, i hate to bicker & she is the only one that can make me do that. *laugh* Hmm... her processing skills is slower and at times, getting me frustrated at times since she couldn't get the meaning of my message. Not that i want to, but seems like 90% of the time, she couldn't get my message right. Anyway, that's the tiring part apart from sitting inside the cinema for movie #2.

      We ended our day with movie #3, No Reservations. This was a romance & it sets the mood right. If i am there with the one i love, i believe that i will be really happy. Love is in the air. The movie features good acting, good laughs & good story. The mood was set just right with the 5 young girls sitting in front of us keep cheering with envy or admirations over the scenes where the main acter show his tenderness for the actress. Awww... How i wished i had a girl right now... and watched the movie together... *laugh* joking. Movie Reviews

good times, bad times

      I was busy & tired over the last two weeks. This is also the reason why i couldn't update my blog even though i wanted to. Where should i start? haha... Last week, i spent 3 days working/planning on ah wei's birthday gift in the midst of my working schedule. Did not really sleep. Then i went to his chalet after my night shift. Checking in and stuff. I'm the planner leh... haha... That ah wei better appreciate what i had done. Anyway, everything went well.

      Totally enjoy the 3D2N chalet even though i was really tired. But how i wish the chalet could last longer. Its enjoyable largely due to the people involved. Apart from the main star, Kangwei, Xinyi & Natalia also stayed throughout the whole of chalet. Nat became my new found friend. Its amazing that we could get along so well. We, as in four person lar... XY & me are the more anti-social ones. We seldom chat with strangers. Hence, i am still amazed that she became my first friend that i know through another friend. *laugh*

      Another highlight should be the photo taking session of Ms Vivian. She really like to pose for cameras. Forcing me to take photos for her... with her beau, Weiliang. A whole series of photos was taken, enough for her to release a pictorial. But honestly, they look real good together... The combination of yandao & chiobus... make me this photographer filled with envy. *laugh* I do not mind capture their moments of Love lar... First time see ah liang revealed his wacky & fun side. Vivian, you are good! *laugh*

Clockwise: Me, WL, Vivian, XY, KW

      Back to reality after the fun, and it couldn't be sooner. On my way back from chalet, i was called up to go back to company earlier than the time i am supposed to reach. After that, 3 days OT out of 4. Workload never seems to ease a bit. Tired, but that's life ba... At least managed to have fun at chat on msn with a few guys, so managed to carry on till today. MY OFF DAY~!!

Items Attained

Digital Camera? Checked.
Handphone? *paused* Hmm.....

      And yes... finally get one of the item on my wanted list. Fujifilm's FinePix Z5. Went to COMEX 2007 yesterday and seize the chance to scout for a digital camera. Initially, i dismiss the idea of squeezing in the crowd and not getting anything. But soon, i decided that it shouldn't be that bad after Dingze asked me again. Hence, i went with 3 other Lounge12 members, namely Kek, "Ahmad" & Kok Hong.

      We went for lunch at Marina Sq & shopped for Kok Hong's Chin-Up bar. Its cool walking around, chit-chatting, teasing, joking with each other... After which, we head to the fair. Definitely, as expected, the place is crowded. Sony had the whole of 3rd floor to their own, showcasing their various products & brands. They even invited host & Superstars to grace their fair. Level 4 gathered all the major technology players including Canon, Creative, Panasonic etc. whereas level 5 were occupied by smaller & medium players. Which level did we spent most of our time at?

COMEX 2007

      Yap, you are right! *laugh* Level 4, of course. We actually skipped level 3 as Sony products are, firstly, expensive. We also do not have anything to get from them. We went level 5 first and went one round, looking for offers, then level 4. I took the chance to gather what is the best options available for my digicam while KH looks for LCD monitor. Thanks to personal advisor, Dz & comments from Terence & KH. I do not face any problems choosing what seems to be the best options available.

FinePix Z5

      The price was just right with all the complementary gifts. I was really happy to select at ease. If not for them, i may still be pondering around, not getting any yet. Just look at my handphone's case, i have selected the model yet i have not went down to get it.

      My great day ends at Singapore Pool @Paradiz Center. We (Dz&Jianqiang) watched 3 EPL matches showing there. Of course, our main concern is the liverpool match. We had to make a small bet in order to enter. We ended up won. Small bet, hence small earnings. But its good enough. Its been a long time since i last won in a bet. Alright, i do not bet often. Great feeling. Will Arsenal beat Portsmouth like Liverpool thrashed Derby? hmm...
