Merry X'mas
Today's entry its gonna be quite long as i'm covering quite a fair bit of things.
But was very sad as i did not really enjoyed myself during christmas...can see everyone in a group having fun while i am with Benedict to watch movie and we both celebrated christmas like that..
My friends were either having family gathering with their relative or out with other group of friends....think i'm slow by one step...so can say thats too bad on me...
17th B'day Celebration
This few days have been a little headache on who will be celebrating my B'day with me and is like not a single one called me to asked me out for dinner or wat so ever. A little disappointed...Yeah!! But my plan is to celebrate by having dinner at Yuki Yaki Marina Square, then walk over to Esplanade for the Countdown, and lastly either go clubbing, pubbing or KTV @ KBOX.
However, who to celebrate with:
Poly Band Friends
Outside Band Friends
Sec Sch Band Friends
Sec Sch Classmates and Friends
Poly Classmates
Everything is like not plan...and if u guys know me well..I' m a person who like to plan ahead and don't like last min thing...where by we are stuck in a place deciding where to go..this is what i hate most..
Part Time Job?
Been thinking of getting a part time job lately as my parents are nagging me that I'm spending too much money...and i find it irrating so i rather earn my own money and spend on the things i want to buy..they have been comparing me with other sons for eg:
"U know hor my employee son now studying in JC. Every month allowance is only $80 and he don't even dare to go out..go out only when his friend are having some B'day celebration"
But i did not argue back cos i was feeling irrated as i was preparing myself to meet my friend.
However, if i would to shoot back. This is what i would say:
"Pls loh u already say he is a JC student already do they need to spend so much on clothes everything..do u expect me to wear the same kind of clothes to sch everyday..I'm in poly...no fixed uniform...so i have to buy my clothes rite..so naturally i need to spend money...somemore i still need to have project so need to go out meet my classmate so need to spend some money on food right...somemore this is the festive seasons...i buy gift for my friends cannot is it...like i nv buy for my siblings...and u say i didn't spend my money wisely...i can say sometime i dun but now i have cut down already ok"
Think i better find a part time job asap and earn my own money...
Conclusion
Jus find this was rather happy and dissapointed theres been ups and downs during this year but i'm goanna blog it all during my b'day...as its the last day of the year i hope all the downs can go away soon and i would enjoy a busy and fun 2007...

Releases on 28 December 2006
Light joins the task force searching for Kira in an effort to avert suspicion from himself and also, to get rid of L. The mystery deepens as another Death Note with its shinigami, is brought into the human world. A second and third Kira complicates the mystery. Making things even more unpredictable are the ‘Eyes of Death’, given to the second Kira, enabling the owner to know the true identity and lifespan of any person. Who would get hold of the ‘Trump Card’ which would determine the outcome of events? And who will be the Last name?
My Review
Even though i didn't get to see part 1 but from part 2 i can guess wats happening for part 1 already...story line was great...and the best part is how Kira fought against L..trying to kill him by knowing his name but too bad he lose without knowing the name and was killed by its own death god...
Curse of the Golden Flowers
Introduction
Rating: PGConsumer
Advice: Battle Scene
Language: Mandarin
Genre: Action / Adventure / Drama / Romance
Director: Yimou Zhang
Cast: Jay Chou, Yun-Fat Chow, Gong Li, Qin Junjie, Man Li, Ye Liu
CHINA, 7TH CENTURY, TANG DYNASTY.
On the eve of the Chong Yang Festival, golden flowers fill the Imperial Palace. The EMPEROR (CHOW YUN FAT) returns unexpectedly with his second son, PRINCE JIE (JAY CHOU). His justification is to celebrate with his family. This seems disingenuous given the chilled relations between the Emperor and the ailing EMPRESS (GONG LI).
For many years, the Empress and CROWN PRINCE XIANG (LIU YE), her stepson, have had an illicit liaison. Feeling trapped, Prince Xiang dreams of escaping the palace with his secret love XIAO CHEN (LI MAN), the Imperial Doctor’s daughter.
Meanwhile, Prince Jie, the faithful son, grows worried over the Empress’s health and her obsession with golden chrysanthemums. Could she be headed down an ominous path?
The Emperor harbors equally clandestine actions. The IMPERIAL DOCTOR (NI DAHONG) is the only one privy to his plans. When the Emperor senses a looming threat, he relocates the doctor’s family from the Palace to a remote area.
While they are en route, mysterious assassins attack them. Xiao Chen and her mother, JIANG SHI (CHEN JIN) are forced back to the palace. Their return sets off a tumultuous sequence of dark surprises.
Amid the glamour and grandeur of the festival, ugly secrets are revealed. As the Imperial Family continues its elaborate charade in a palatial setting, thousands of golden armored warriors charge the palace. Who is behind this brutal rebellion? Where do Prince Jie’s loyalties lie? Between love and desire, is there a final winner?
Against a moonlit night, blood spills across the Imperial Palace.
My Review
Artistic FULL MARK...story Fail....i think zhang yi mou should be an artistic director rather then a movie director...and how jay chou act is very funny for some part but Gong Li was power..she really act like an empress...

Thursday, December 21
Finally, installed Adobe Photoshop and its time to stay on the computer to explore. And jus use some function the Healing one not bad for scar and pimple. Haha. But it looks complicated overall. Think need guide book or what.
Jus back from the movie and finish like 12.00 AM and was like thinking is there still bus home for me. But lucky 518 still servicing was quite shocked actually cos the bus stop which included the guide for the bus said that the last bus is 1100 so decided to take 36 which terminate at the Airport then from there i will be taking cab.
Lucky, 518 came at 1200am haha so save quite a fair bit of money.
Next movie expedition, will be CURSE OF THE GOLEN FLOWERS...anyone interested
Night at the Musem
Introduction
Rating: PG
Language: English
Genre: Action / Comedy / Family / Fantasy
Director: Shawn Levy
Cast: Ben Stiller, Carla Gugino, Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Rooney, Bill Cobbs, Jake Cherry, Ricky Gervais, Robin Williams
Good-hearted dreamer Larry Daley (Ben Stiller), despite being perpetually down on his luck, thinks he's destined for something big. But even he could never have imaged how "big," when he accepts what appears to be a menial job as a graveyard-shift security guard at a museum of natural history. During Larry's watch, extraordinary things begin to occur: Mayans, Roman Gladiators, and cowboys emerge from their diorama to wage epic battles; in his quest for fire, a Neanderthal burns down his own display; Attila the Hun (Patrick Gallagher) pillages his neighboring exhibits, and a T-Rex reminds everyone why he's history's fiercest predator.
Amidst the chaos, the only person Larry can turn to for advice is a wax figure of President Theodore Roosevelt (Robin Williams), who helps our hero harness the bedlam, stop a nefarious plot, and save the museum.
My Review
