X-Men III

Mission Impossible 3, I have not watched. The Da Vinci Code, I yearn to watch. X-Men, to be out tomorrow, I've already watched!!!!!! MUAHAHAHAHAA..

It's a neverending need to keep up with the blockbusters that come out every week. (And instead, I wasted one time to watch Poseidon with my family on Mothers' Day. Yes, it's really Titanic-meet-Daylight CRAP!!).

Just almost an hour and a half show, there's hardly any time to build any good base for a war between mutants and humans nor end it properly especially.

Jean Gray becomes The Phoenix (aka Goddess of Destruction, at least in the movie). And her favourite colour is red. (I like her red hair though. Hm.)

Scott aka the Laser Guy, Professor X and Jean Grey DIE!!!

HAHAHAHA!!!! I GOT YOU! I spoilt your movie!!!

*frown* That doesn't go in the comic nor cartoon. But again, there's no Gambit, no Jubilee and what happened to NightCrawler? And I thought that Rogue's other gifts were her great strength and ability to fly?

I always thought that Gambit was cool with his stick and poker cards and red eyes. When I was a kid. But he can't do shit la.

And the new guy with angel wings in this show? DUUUUUHHH... Get your feathers to drop off and slash enemies when you fly or something!

Oh, so late. Time to sleep. I used to think that if I can fly, it will be great, but after watching that guy with wings fly... I thought otherwise. Maybe if I got a special power, that will be to go without sleep. Life's too short for sleeping. But I'm no mutant nor superwoman.

Wa lao. I absolutely could not stand it. The stupid bitch strikes again, but what's new right! Aarrh... She's now acting as if the family's camera is hers, bringing it wherever she goes, and since it's my birthday this week, I only used it these few days, and then what she says?

"Where's the camera? I need it now."

I kept silent for a while and said, "It's with me, with my memory stick. I'll transfer my pictures over first."

I went to get the camera from my bag and then she said, "Oh. The cable is with me, I didn't bring it back."

WTF.

So I grudingly passed her the camera with the family's (and not HERS) memory stick. And just commented, "You gotta charge it. Batt's low."

And she hurriedly say, "You charge it LA!!" while holding out the camera that I've just placed on the table. I frowned, said, "YOU said you need it NOW what!"

"No? I don't need it now. You charge it."

Bitch.

And ok, I took it from her and was going to charge it, and she went on!!! Like, "Why would I need it now... don't know how to charge it..." and said something about "stupid" or something to that extent.

#%!#$^@&!!!!

I flew up and said loudly, "DON'T behave like the camera's YOURS." She kept quiet.

I wanted to say that she didn't even pay a single shit for the camera nor for the memory stick. But she is hoarding it like almost everyday.

"And bring that cable back ASAP." (Why in the first place did she bring it out and leave it anywhere else when it's not hers!? That's the fucking problem with this stupid bitch. And it's not the freaking first time. The other time was the home PC's MOUSE!)

And she muttered some incoherent and irrelevant things which only reflected as a bratty bitch who thinks that everything in the house belongs to her. She needs it? She gets it.

Damn it.

All my good mood evaporated into thin air. Faaaaaaarrrrk.

I'm 23!!! As old as I am, I actually still stay up till midnight last night (but again which night I didn't?). And count how many true friends I have by those who message me to wish me well. Muaahahahaha. Yah yah, childish I know. But er, I don't have true friends more than the fingers of E.T's hand. (/-\)

Was frantically trying to complete most of my work in office yesterday. And I ended up one of the few ones who left the office late...st. Just cos I am on leave today!!

And my mom messaged me last night while I was still in office: "23 years ago in 1983.. I was still cooking dinner before going to (the) hospital. The next day I was induced and a baby girl was borned. I was happy... So you are the one, my 1st daughter, she is already 23."

That message sent my tears springing to my eyes and I actually cried in the office. I was touched, and I guess my mummy was feeling a little old. I LOVE YOU MUMMY!!! :')

I woke up today and was anticipating an in-bed breakfast. YES!!! JX is cooking for me!!! Ah hahahaha... But erm, I couldn't pretend to sleep. Not till 11AM anyway. He's been cooking my breakfast for almost an hour already. And he is not allowing me to step into the kitchen and kept shooing me away. And so I looked from my room and saw him scurrying around the kitchen and squealing and grinning widely at the pancake mixture in the wok.

-_-

But AWW... he's so cute!! He's cooking my breakfast with so much love and care (and concentration), I'm so touched! :')

And then he kept running in to my room to ask me questions. Hahahaha... -hug-

And now he's using my sense of smell to see if the hotdogs are already cooked in the oven in the kitchen. Hohoho..

I got my first present yesterday, given by Sandy from my workplace. Wow, I didn't expect it, and just before she left the office she handed me a little box and wished me happy birthday. I went, "Wow!!! SERIOUS!!? THANK YOU!!!" and started grinning goofily at my present. And Sandy was saying, "You'll like it!! You'll be using it for sure." I guessed it was perfume cos earlier in the day I was complaining I stink (because the morning was so humid and I was rushing to work, sweating). "No no, it's of good use!" Hmmm...

I opened it later in the night. It's....

Avene Sunblock lotion.

-_-

Hahahaha, can see that there's thought in the present lo. I know I'm dark la, and I'd gotten really burnt once when I was working in this company. The present is kinda funny lo. Then she was messaging me on the hp, saying that I gotta take care of my skin, must maintain the youth now... I am so touched lo... :'D

It's such a touchy birthday.

Will be meeting Kum and Shi tomorrow, I think. And I already know that there'll be sparklers!!! Cos Shi said that my present is only suitable for night. HO HO HO... :D

********intermission********

I've eaten my breakfast!!! Woah.. it was so nicely presented lei!!! :) Baby, thank you!!! Muahh. There're hotdogs, pancakes with honey topping and chocolate topping, a green apple with chocolate topping (yum!) and a glass of orange juice. Woow...
*burp*
I almost forgot how special you can feel during birthdays! Last year I was down with a high fever and was suspected of having a dengue fever, which turned out to be tonsillitis. But can't speak or eat properly. So how to celebrate any shit?
Wa... I feel like a 23-year-old princess! In good mood!

Shit. The long weekend is about to end in 12 hours time. And it's going to be a long draggy Monday all over again. Did anyone mention about implying a 4 day work week in Singapore?

I got a new handphone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wahahaha...


HEE HEE. (Ya, you can say that I'm a little bored.)

But isn't the phone pretty! A little broad, yes, but flat. They have a less broad version, but that's more expensive by 160 buckeroos. One setback is that when slid closed, the hp has no whatsoever indication that it's even switched on. It blacked out totally, not even a clock analog, or a missed call or a message if I have one. The salesperson said that total blackout is to help save battery cos its life isn't that long. So no screensaver no flickering clock analog.

-_-

Looks like I have to start wearing watches now.

I was always irritated that my previous Samsung phone doesn't indicate on its external screen that I've a msg after I ignored it for a while. And thus I have to keep flipping it up and down. And sooo, after a while, I just couldn't be bothered to flip it back down cos it's easier to check whether I've a message or missed call, when I'm working. And people are always asking me why do I bother getting a clamshell phone. Hey, I didn't know that this would happen. I thought that the manufacturers would know better! At least those in Nokia do?

This new Samsung phone is even worse than my previous Samsung phone.

And it doesn't have any holes that I can hook onto if I want it attached to a lanyard around my neck. So stupid. Ya, no dingly dangling phone chains. And yes, basically, I don't have any way to personalise my new handphone. *$%#(!$%... And yes, the handphone only comes in black colour.

Then you wonder why I bought this phone. Because it's Samsung! (And not Nokia) And the other functions made up for this flaw. (Or that I would like to think so too.) Muahahahaha.

...........................................................................

Happy Mother's Day, anyway! Gonna have a dinner with my extended family and it's time - the younger generation forks out money to pay for the meal.

Finally. It's the long weekend. Why did this week go so slowly even though it's a 4 day week? And the next holiday is in August. AUGUST. Damn it, so damn far away.

Mom's day coming soon and I don't have the slightest idea what to get my mom. I think she would like cash. Hm...

Impromptu meetup with Kum & Shi today. Talk about jobs... again. Kum finally graduating, and panicking being not able to get a job, irritated with her mom with the slightest suggestion that she should be more proactive in looking for a job, just as I was in the past. Shi, as usual, saying that she wants to quit her accounting job and that cos of her job, she doesn't have a life of her own now, BUT the money is too good. So that's why she's still at it now.

But seriously, to work everyday till 9 something? And even on weekends? If I were Shi, I wouldn't have lasted till this long. And I would have justified myself by saying something about having to weigh my happiness and freedom against a big paycheck. First 2 weeks of the month, I would not think much, but next 2 weeks, I would curse and swear that even though I work till so late everyday, but I don't have enough money to spend.

There's no perfect job. Even if it seems perfect at the start, it'll begin to become a routine and a bore. And then, you'll start dreading it. Er, maybe. Cos I was not even in the perfect job in the first place.

I don't even know what's a perfect job. Heck - there's no perfect job. Haiya, what am I saying. Jobs are just jobs. You work, you earn money, you get by. And in no time, you'll retire, with barely any money because you've been paying off debts and loans for cars and houses and everything else. So you'll be happier maybe, to just give up looking for the perfect job for yourself. Cos happy or not, the world still goes round, and what makes the world go round? Money.

Life is so sad...

And I realise that my blogs are getting really mundane and boring... but of course, it reflects my dull life... boohoohooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Time to sleep.

Last night, one of my closest friends messaged me saying that she was clearing her stuffs and came across some things that reminded her of how close we used to be, and then ended off saying that she misses me. That message sent me a pang of pain in my innards and I realised that I was swallowing a lump in my throat as I read the message.

I had been missing Shi & Kum even though we all carried on with our busy lives. I placed a photograph of us all beneath the glass pane on my desk at work, but that had dated back when I was just 18 years old. Even though we were all from different junior colleges, we were still close and kept in contact often. Times at school is somehow different... The feel is somehow different. We can be super busy with our work but we can still manage to find some time to meet up and do silly things. Busy but really happy times. But again, we had school holidays. We grow older, and we lack the energy to do just about anything other than.. work. So we get busy... and unhappy.

I miss my friends, and getting to know that they miss me too, made me miss them even more... And miss the times when we are all schooling...

They still remain as the closest friends that I ever had...
***************************
I'm done with reading The Da Vinci Code. WOW. I'm glad that I had bought the book. It was really a marvel!!!! I MUST watch that movie!!! I hope the show do justice to the story book. Can't wait for its release. Hm. Although it was explicitly indicated that the story's fictional, some parts of me hoped that it is not. Because it's controversial? Maybe! Everyone loves a controversy.
I just love the mysterious and dark feeling of the unveiled parts of history. And the possibility of another truth, another side of the frequently told story. Of course, I know there's no absolute truth. And I've learnt there's no history recorded that depicts the absolute truth of what had happened. (I've always like those lessons in University - "History is just but the relation of events in the past from the perspective of the dominant class..." Oooh!!! That dark feeling! Of the untold side of history burning to be unveiled...)
That's why I like mystery books I guess.
Although I had never liked History (& Kum can testify to that) and never scored in that subject, because I hate memorizing important dates and long weird-sounding names, the mystifying factor of what the present try to derive from the evidence left from the past is a draw. Especially the controversial and open-ended ones.
....ahh... Can't wait till 18th May!!
