postie postie's here once again ! heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. watched 'a christmas carol' in fantabulous 3d today. yeah, fantabulously frightening. -.-. i was mentioning purely about the effects. anyway, we were initially planning to go to some beach for some celebration over exams stuffs but in the end, it was only a pathetic number of three people going to watch a movie. i'll give you a bird's eye view on those who backed out. peilin had some difficulties, erm, with her dear and most beloved mum, well, mostly on the coming out part (a firm hand indeed). claudia was booked by an unexpected incident of some sort. she’s moving house, i guess. jiaen was hit by a wave of fever after her HLC camp. zanjin was only available from wednesday onwards. well, that shows that it’s obviously a forlorn hope of travelling to a beach all the way with only three people. blah blah. anyway, rise and shine at an-impossible-time-during-the-school-holidays (for me) of 8.30 am. bloody hell early. my screaming mum was throwing pillows and bolsters at me without giving a thought that i could actually get up and suffer an instant heart attack. heartless. managed to shun her off a little before getting up at 8.45 am. i was literally a 99.9% walking zombie then. breakfast-ed, bathed and practiced the damn black and white and black and white and black and white piano before preparing to get outta the house. hokay. i was supposed to meet erin at her block at 11.10 am and we predicted to arrive at hougang mrt station where we were to meet vivian at 11.30 am. yeah. by the time i reached erin’s block it was close to 11.30 am and erin got stuck in the toilet bowl (nah, kidding) and when she got down, it was close to erm, 11.45 am? whoops. on the way to the station erin was giggling with utmost annoyance at FAMILIAR something. god. erin ah. vivian was no better. -.-. blah blah. oh, me and erin reminisced about the past and blurted out the story with utter most excitement of jiaen getting caught in between the two red flaps of the ez-link card machine. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. whoops, did i laugh ? my bad. anyway, caught the train and few seats were available and we remained standing. crapped about cock-and-bull stories and incidents before realizing that habourfront was pretty far-fetched. halfway, we changed our mind and had a change in plan and changed our destination to BUGIS. ha-ha-ha. yeah. it’s much further. -.-. touchdown at outram park station (only one station before habourfront. only. yes. only. merely. just.) by then i was dying of hunger and erin was desperate for water. vivian, who was as cool as a cucumber, was still in her tip top-condition. entered some shopping centre and travelled all the way up to the top floor (cathay) and we were wondering where the hell the ticket counter was. asked the person selling food and i was bloody tempted to purchase a box of popcorn to fill my calling-for-food stomach. apparently, according to the person, the ticket counters are located at the first floor. wtf. we were appalled. hokay. we sounded like idiots too. the person talked to us like we were some three-year old kids or something. anyway, travelled all the way down and there were no bloody shows. bless us. take it or leave it. -.-. 1. mulan (the title says it all). 2.twilight saga: new moon (two and a half hours and apparently, none of us were that much interested). 3. 2012 (both erin and vivian watched it before). we decided to waste some ez-link card money and return to habourfront. erin and vivian were to take neo-prints but they refused to see me die of extreme hunger, so thus, the priority was food. entered some shopping centre and travelled to the basement where i was practically drooling helplessly over food. both of them saw the plight i was in and decided to eat at some japanese café or something. hokay. apparently, the café was full (it was the bloody lunch hour) and we were forced to stand outside the damn shop while i drool. the amount of saliva could have drowned the whole of the basement (haha, obviously, i was joking). anyway, as the mrt station was just a few shops away, we took the trains back to habourfront. haiz. we had an argument about whether we should grab a bite first or purchase the tickets upon reaching. i lost and the i was desperately gulping down breaths of the scent of popcorn while erin was buying the tickets to prevent me from fainting. -.-. anyway, headed to burger king (our place for eating taro turnover) and i had turkey bacon meal. mmmmmmmmm. deliciously delicious. halfway eating, i had an urge to take pictures of them (they were sitting across me) and i got caught by vivian. was bloated after the meal. we kept getting lost. -.-. haha. there was once when we caught sight of a ‘to kill a mocking bird’ flyer about the play. considered watching, although the cheapest price stated was thirty-nine bucks. kay. headed to ‘canon’ to have our photos taken. coz we purchased the movie tickets and it came with this free ticket. and so, it came with a free paper photo-frame and four small photos of us standing beside some styrofoam gingerbread man and christmas tree. next, we walked towards toys r’ us and at the same time, wishing there was a bridge across as we were opposite the store. hokay. it was rather hilarious. erin was sulking about how small with limited amount of toys the toys r’ us were in the past when we were erm, well, young. toddlers, to be exact. LOL. kay. so our hands were rather itchy and we were trying out every damn toy that says ‘try me’ or ‘press my hand’ or ‘shake me’. ROFL. and whenever we discover something worth laughing at we would drag each other across just to press a button or two. there was once when erin discovered a toy that says ‘douby ghaut’ when being shaken. strolled to the soft toys section and took pictures and vivian was annoying us with a barney. haha. oh, and there was once when erin and vivian was having an argument about the doctor set. erin was protesting that there were those scalpels available last time and vivian was denying it all the while. and the cooking set with the cupboard, we were estimating the length and width of it and how we would have to squat to play. it was simply a flight of fancy for us and wishing we were born ten years later. haha. left and headed back to gv. purchased popcorn and drinks and went in to the theatre where we were provided with 3d specs outside. found our seats and we were trying out the specs. erin wore it and vivian and i claimed that she resembled someone from outta space. haha. pictures were taken. by the time the advertisements were shown, me and erin were feeling slighty sleepy. blah blah. soon, there was a notice asking us to put on our 3d specs. and so, there was this preview about alice in wonderland in 3d and it seemed genuinely real. the falling down the hole part and everything. vivian was abruptly disturbed by the cat-face. haha it looked half-sinister and half-adorable and i couldn’t for my life decide on which. blah blah. the show started. well, some parts were rather a crashing bore, but the 3d effects were wonderfully made. the pop-out snowflakes were so real that you would imagine yourself in the show itself. oh, and there were several flying parts. pity there was no wind. hokay. vivian was removing her specs every now and then and me and erin were trying to make it stay at a comfortable position on our nose bridges as it bloody kept sliding down. apart from the constantly-sliding-3d-specs, everything was nicely done, although i had an urge to break the 3d glasses into two for not having an adjustable hinge or some sort. bloody annoying, having to push up the specs every now and then. anyway, i finally understood why they had to type the extra words of ‘disturbing scenes’ beside the letters ‘PG’ and guessed i underestimated those words. kay. -.-. the ‘ghost of christmas yet’ part. with the soul riper and the hell horses chasing ebenezer (voice of jim carrey) around. oh, and the dropping down to hell part. the coffin, i mean. there were a few scenes where the damn 3d effects just slapped into your face before you could register the scene into your brain. haha. hokay. and so, the popcorn sucked big time. wtf. we asked for SWEET popcorn. like 100% SWEET. without a hint of salty popcorns in it. in the end we got a mixture of SWEET and SALTY popcorns and got me gulping down loads of coke and ice lemon tea (erin’s) and complaining grumpily to erin and vivian. they seemed not to mind about this whole wrong-popcorn-selection business. haha. hokay. thereafter, the show ended with of course, a happily ever after ending (it’s usually like that, rest assure) and we were one of the last few to leave the theatre. we busied ourselves with the searching of familiar names after the show. i once spotted an ‘erin’ and was getting all-excited even though it wasn’t my name but the one sitting beside me. me and erin were both trying to locate the name ‘allan’. haha. for some reasons known to vivian. heeeeeeeee. left and i was wondering if i could smuggle the 3d glasses outta the theatre without knowledge but it was when the person outside was holding out a hand to collect them. toilet-ed and were wondering where the hell the entrance to the mrt station was. -.-. god. we seemed to be getting lost pretty often. parted with vivian at the train and me and erin continued our journey home. we were chatting about poly. LOL. she claimed to be taking some business cum culinary course. i was trying hard to figure out. well, erm, do business with food-related stuffs, i guess ? hmmm. blah blah. accompanied her to hougang point where she caught sight of this wondergirl video and got totally mesmorised with it and kept shouting ‘oh my god’ every now and then into my ears and scaring the hell outta me. nah, kidding. can you believe it, we went back to the place twice. -.-. haha. sent her to the lift while i continued my journey home. home-ed at seven plus. early seh. anyway, nights, i’m going to bed. gonna wake up hell early tomorrow to go band room with anna and most probably her sister. they haven’t quite get over me reborning my hair. haha. and perhaps, we will be heading to zequan’s house later for some mahjong session ! YES. mahjong all over again. i’m missing it like hell. XD. nightnights.Labels: slebal
