Hit Town. Walked around aimlessly. Den watched movie IP Man at causeway point.Its a nice show. Let's learn more abt IP Man.

Yip Man (traditional Chinese: 葉問; simplified Chinese: 叶问; pinyin: yè wèn, Cantonese Jyutping: jip⁶ man⁶; alternative spelling Ip Man; also known as 葉繼問; 1 October 1893-2 December 1972) was the first martial arts master (Chinese: Sifu) to teach the Chinese martial art of Wing Chun openly. He had several students who later became martial arts teachers in their own right, including Bruce Lee.
Yip Man was the last Wing Chun student of Chan Wah-shun when he was 70 years old. He was the second son of a very wealthy family in Foshan, Guangdong, and received an exceptional traditional Chinese education.

Cant blog ytd cause i'm way too tired and its late also. Went to watch sneak preview of Transporter 3. Only one movie time slot and tat is 11.35pm. The release date for tis movie is on 1 January 2009 but the cinemas are showing early, for those who are real interested in tis action-packed show and of course, Jason Statham(the lead of the movie). Fantastic man! He's my idol. In tis movie, he was able to do most of the stunts on his own because of his martial arts background. A little more abt him..
Jason Michael Statham(born on 12 September 1972) is an English actor. He was born in Sydenham, south-east London. He was the second son of a lounge singer and dressmaker-turned-dancer who ran a black market operation and bathroom stall. He grew up initially following in his parents' footsteps to master the art of street theatre. He also played football for the local grammar school (1978-83), but his real passion was diving -- in particular, he finished 12th in the World Championships in 1992. He was also a member of Britain's National Diving Squad for twelve years.

The story goes like tis: A superb cast, suspense, action, adventure and romance against a backdrop of fast cars and beautiful scenery in the third installment of the Transporter franchise.

Jason Statham (Collateral, Snatch) stars as Frank Martin, the daring deliveryman pressed back into service from his retirement on the French Riviera. Robert Knepper (Prison Break) is the ex-Delta Force operative trying to keep Frank chasing shadows, while Francois Berleand (Tell No One), plays Tarconi, the gastronomic French detective, who provides invaluable support. Sultry Slav newcomer Natalya Rudakova rides shotgun and eventually persuades Frank to loosen his tie.

From the Riviera to the Baltic Sea, via Stuttgart and Budapest, Frank races to dodge ruthless hit men, outwit a criminal mastermind and prevent an ecological catastrophe.

Merry Christmas
Its a fesitve of giving and sharing. Was suppose to meet the Royals for lunch but it was cancelled in the end. Quite disappointing. I jus hope I can spend more time wid you all whenever I can. Anyway, meiteng said we will be meeting next week before their sch reopens. Yup, I remember that we had tis agreement tat we will meet 5 years later at 4.04pm on 29 January 2009 at Far East Plaza Long John Silver. But now, the Long John Silver had been torn down so we meet at the toilet there. For the past few years, we would go hunting for new year clothes together. And then, we were sooo tired den we took a rest at Long John Silver and made tis pact(cause we are going to different schools soon and meeting up would probably be difficult). I always remember tis pact and has never once been forgotten. There is nowhere to go so I rotted at home. Watched movies the whole day. Its good to idle at home cause I dun like the crowd, what more is Christmas time. Soon, tis year is coming to a closure and the start of a new year. Its time to look back and reflect. Its never too late to change, though. Alright, enuff of Eileen grandma's nagging.

Eve of Christmas
It took me a long time to clean my room. Tired and haggard. I feel so much like a housewife. But, i dun wish to be one. I wan to have my own career first, the others come later.

ps:I will learn to appreciate mummy more.

Went to Serene's house for early christmas celebration, again. Tis is the third time we went to her house. Everyone turned up including the guys. -Zheng ying-Carol-Serene-Yan ting-Seok cheng-Jasmin-Mei teng-Eileen-De cong-Alvin-Zhi cong-Nicholas-Yong quan-Wilson-Soon guan-Its a lot more merrier and noisier than the past two years. After the steamboat, the girls were taking photos inside the room while the guys were sitting in the living room watching tv. Its been soo long since i see them. We were chatting non-stop. The others went for supper at 888 at 1am midnight while mei teng, zheng ying, carol, jasmin and seok cheng went home. Its good and nice to gather together, even if its for awhile. Wat touched me was tat mei teng passed me a belated birthday card for my birthday. She was writing tat why din I celebrate my birthday cause it was a special day and the day tat everyone was hoping to see me. Im sorry tat I neglected everyone due to hectic schedule. The reason was tat I was having restaurant training at tat time and i have to work from monday to saturday and sunday was considered a off-day. And coincidently, my birthday fells on sunday. It was very tiring and had to stand for eight hours a day for 6 days a week so i dun have any celebration. But, rest assured tat there will be one next year to make up for tis year. Next year, my birthday is on monday and i will be celebrating on saturday, preferably.I promise i will have more time for you all. Also, the Rotis will be meeting on tis coming thursday 25 dec for christmas. Take care, everybody.
*ps:these are only some of the photos uploaded.

One of my hamsters died, again. I also dun understand why. There's a hole on its stomach, wid a tiny bone sticking out. Its gruesome. Tis is the second hamster which died in a row. Today is the start of "IP Man" movie. Gonna catch it real soon. I'm sure its nice! I'm looking forward to meet the Royals on Sunday 21 Dec for steamboat cum early christmas celebration. There will be a gift exchange too. Its the usual every year.

Watched "The Day The Earth Stood Still" movie. Still not bad. It seems very nice but actually quite abit disappointing, not wat i expected.
Brief storyline: A mysterious alien, Klaatu, travels to Earth with a simple mission; to save the planet. He lands his vast space ship in Central Park, New York and announces his plans to a fearful world watching from all corners of the globe. He will destroy everything then re-populate our planet with clones of the current species... All except humans who he feels are responsible for Earth's destruction and must be permanently destroyed. He unleashes swarms of dust size robots who sweep through New York and the surrounding area dissolving everything in their path. As mankind fights to survive, one female scientist convinces Klaatu to stop the earth’s destruction and give us a second chance.

Mcdonald breakfast early in the morning. It makes my day.

14 December 2008
Fetched mummy from work. Wat shocked me was tat she is red-headed now-she dyed her hair red. Almost could not recognise her. But well, she said the colour will fade and change to brown in 2 weeks time.

Had Hotel Security and Law exams today:)and its the last two papers for tis semester. Woosh, i finally made thru!Its been a hell ride for me-sleeping at late hours, getting up in the wee mornings to study and tis went on for one whole week.Can you believe it?I really did study hard and squeezing all my brain juices dry so i hope everything will turns out right and well. One more semester den attachment. Cant believe tat time pass in a blink of eyes. Im gonna miss my cliques and royals. There will be lesser time to meet up cos working hours in hotel are long and sometimes have to work overtime. Of cos, there will be off-days every week, probably one day or two days depending on each hotel. Actually, i dun look forward to working in hotels. Its sooo tiring and work seems to be endless, but no choice, if not i cant graduate. Alright, i shall end here. Holidays are here. Take care, everyone.

Had Hospitality Sales and English writing skills exams today. Lunch wid sherlin, alice, hamster, sharlene and zhi ting at the factory. All of us had yong tau foo. We were like, craping, laming and laughing all the way. New rules are implemented in school. We are able to wear home clothes when school reopens next year january. It was like, finally. But we cannot wear revealing clothes or shorts above knee length. Able to wear home clothes everyday is a good thing but there are limited choices to choose from(buy more new clothes, hahas). Hope to meet up soon wid serene, yan ting, mei teng, zheng ying, carol, jasmin and seok cheng. Sometimes, i feel tat i'm so distant from them.
*ps to serene:Do flood me wid more invitations to go out.

11 December 2008
Had Front Office Management exams. Lunch wid sherlin, alice, sin yi, sharlene, wan ling, zhi ting, hamster and her joe at west mall food court. The rest left, leaving zhi ting, sharlene, sherlin and i. We went to mac. They had ice cream. Keep laughing cause zhi ting keep craping ang laming all the way. Not only him, all of us joined in. Its so noisy at mac, mainly our laughter. Den trained home.

10 December 2008
Had Front Office Operations exams. Still alright though.

First day of exams-Property Maintenance. Still can do, not so bad afterall. Tat sickening hamster, from the time we were out of school, kept pestering us to accompany her to have mcdonald for lunch. Of cos, nobody oblige her. Window-shopping at ntuc and sheng siong. Bought some frozen food back home. Had a nice nap before preparing to fight again.

Rushing for projects(deadline is tmr).Preparing for the coming exams too(next week). Head big big. Cracking my hed hard to write something out.

3 December 2008
Accompanied mummy to perm her hair. Lunch at causeway point with mummy. Zhu Cao as dinner at woodlands plaza.

Rain fell unexpectedly when I came out of the school. Maybe it jus marks my gloomy day. Front Office Operations Presentation was not good. One wrong move and all of us are sandwiched between life and death situation. Either you die, or survive. Maybe I'm abit hot-headed, sorry peeps.* But well, it jus concern all of us.

We may not be the higher scorers but we give our very best. I harbour the thought tat we can still salvage the situation. Now its not the time to blame each other.

We jus do the best of it and see how it goes. One step at a time. Okies la, I'm dying to have more malay cuisine since the visit of Geylang Serai. When are we going again? Or are there any more such foods at elsewhere too? Anyway, dec holidays are lined up wid lots of activities. Sentosa, steamboat,stayovers wid the cliques,

Night Safari visit wid the royals and ?? So many things to do yet so little time.

On a less serious note.

Lunch at Causeway point banquet. I had chicken rice and he had chao guo tiao.

Asian foods are nice!! Watched 'Quarantine.' Not bad after all. Cant imagine tat such a gruesome movie will have some laughing parts.

Here is the description:Television reporter Angela Vidal (Jennifer Carpenter – star of The Exorcism of Emily Rose) and her cameraman (Steve Harris) are assigned to spend the night shift

with a Los Angeles Fire Station. After a routine 911 call takes them to a small apartment building, they find police officers already on the scene in response to blood curdling screams coming from one of the apartment units. Unbeknownst to them, a woman living in the building has contracted a rare strain of rabies.After a few of the residents are viciously attacked,

they try to escape with the news crew in tow, only to find that the CDC has quarantined the building.Phones, internet, televisions and cell phone access have been cut-off, and officials are not relaying information to those locked inside.

And I'm gonna to watch IP man, Bolt, The Day The Earth Stood Still and more
