Knocked Up

A romantic comedy with loads of lessons to learnt. Ben & Alison met on a 1 night stand, and 8 weeks later, a baby is found!!!?? Jokes in this show could be rather crude but they are not wrong and most of the time very funny. This show is rated M18 in Singapore, but rated R in US... I wonder how much has been editted from the version i just watched. hmmm...

Anyway, this is a GREAT show for laughter. It's super super funny!!! From start till the end, you'll see people making a fool of themselves.

These nothing much more i could say about the show without being a spoiler. So i'll shall just stop here.. Go figure out the moral lessons to be learnt yourself.. trust me.. there's a lot..

Die Hard 4.0

Die Hard 4.0 is basically a hardcore action packed movie. From start till the end, the action is non-stop. Bruce Willis is back again in his 4th i and believe final installment of Die Hard, for those who have watch and still remembered the past 3 episodes. 1 was good, 2 was okay and 3 was there for the sake of being there. But i have to say 4.0 is pretty good all over again. The title Die Hard 4.0 gives me a hint that the movie will be about computers, and i was right, loads of high tech stuff going on.

Basically this show is pure action with a pretty cool and have a pretty well paced story line. 130 mins may seem alittle long on paper, but you will not be bored (provided you are interested in ACTION). It's basically man vs man/woman/car/heli/plane/computers... Everything!! And Man still wins.. Surprised??

Great show to catch, especially on boring afternoons. Maggi Q is also in this movie, and she plays the villain, now that's rare. Haha!! Mary Elizabeth Winstead plays Bruce's daughter in the movie, and it's quite funny to see the 2 interact. Talking about funny, there are also quite a few laughing points in the movie, so it's quite a comedy too.

Sliding Doors


Have you all ever wondered what will happen to your life if you missed a train or managed to catch it? How does something as trival as missing/catching a train impact your life? This is exactly what Sliding Doors is about - how a split second can send your life in entirely different directions.

In the show, we find out what happen to Helen's life (played by Gwyneth Paltrow) if she missed the train and if she boarded it in time. So the story kept switching between these 2 universe, in which her life journey and experience are completely different. But a very intriguing thing happened at the end of the show... So intriguing that the lessons from this movie remained deep in me although I watched it 9 years ago! Over time, I found out that I am not the only one who was deeply influenced by this movie.

What was that intriguing thing? Check out the movie... This is a romantic comedy with thought-provoking life lessons, although the ending in 1 of the universe is rather sad. Nonetheless, this is definitely an all-time classic..

Another Monday comes...

Another monday has come and gone.. the the past weekend wasnt very exciting.. spent most of the time at home.. dabbling with internet $$ earning, basically those emails and adverts... it's not very effective really.. unless you have a crowd of people who actively click on you or u get them to become members.. and they get people to become members.. if u can do that.. u will be rich... BUT.. is it really right to do that??? BUT.. some people do get rich.. sometimes the result justifies the means... :P

today.. woke up to a drizzling noon.. best weather to go back to sleep.. but i figured.. it's time for me to catch another movie.. cos the movieaddict needs updating.. and guess wat.. dear "pontang" her work.. so she shld be free to watch with me.. BUT!! no.. she wanted to stay home.. initially i was quite pissed about that.. but.. sometimes i do that too.. so i do the alternative.. i go find her instead... i brought lunch too.. hahaa.. spent the rest of the afternoon in her place watching bones... another x-files/CSI like show.. hahaa.. but it's quite nice..

den it was time to go tj.. TA1 training again.. they are improving.. maybe not my credit at all.. but it's good to see them improving.. i never tot improvement could be that apparent.. but compared to previous weeks.. there's always improvement.. and it's obvious... whereas training with the JC kids.. they seem to have met a bottleneck improvements are not clear at all.. more of mood dependant.. sometimes good sometimes bad... i wonder wat i can do...

Work And more Work!!

Tueday i had my interview at Jardine OneSolution aka JOS... it's for the lenovo laptop promoter job during the NUS/NTU roadshows... initially i was told there werent much applicants.. but when i turned up there was like 30++ ppl there.. seems really a lot to me.. and the majority are from NUS.. but the best part.. no one from NUS actually got news of the job from the Student Union.. conclusion... NUSSU sucks.. :P hahaa.. oh well.. the interview went on quite ok i guess... i received 2 comments about myself which i hear for the very first time.. hahaa.. i was told i was "articulate" & have "strong IT knowledge".. HAHAHAAA!!!

My job with ESN has finally ended.. yesterday was the last day for track & field for secondary levels... although competition at the higher levels are really much more exciting and much nicer to watch... somehow there's lack of fun and interest in the assistants working there... i like the environment at the primary school meet more.. people are more fun, frenly.. simple cos i made more frens there.. also because of the lack of fun there.. i did not take much photos, nor did i take out my camera on the final day.. just din feel much of an urge to take with anyone.. apart from the assistants.. the officials were also very fun ppl.. they are mainly a bunch of retired coaches & pe teachers who are very very familiar with the way to conduct the sports meet.. and they were all a bunch of jokers too.. great fun to have them around..

Today went back TJ for training again... and it's photo taking DAY!! yah.. everyone were in their jerseys preparing to take the team photo.. I also took fung's camera and went snapping away.. i think it's damn shiok to have that kind of expensive camera.. cos i was like snapping snapping away like nobody's business.. quite fun.. BUT.. i wonder how the photos i took turn out.. hahaa.. not very nice perhaps... esther appeared for training today.. very very unusual & rare.. hahaa.. training began only after the photo taking session.. so training also ended quite late.. around 9pm... it's been very long since training could end this late.. in my days.. ALL trainings ended this late.. haha.. but it was fun.. and we liked it... i believe most of the gals who played in the matches today enjoyed the training matches..

oh.. JOS replied to me in EMAIL telling me i got the promoter job!!! i was expecting their call the whole day.. haha.. but they sent email instead.. i specifically asked during the interview if they would call or email.. the interviewer told me call.. DUHzZ.... oh well.. i get the job..

Time for Update

I'm back again and it's been a rather interesting weekend.. saturday was supposed to be filled with events.. training... job briefing.. drawing lots for pesta sukan and such... but i was down with a diarrhea.. so too bad... slouched at home the whole day..

Sunday morning.. i was back in action... morning i was helping out with registration at the kallang netball centre... it's the inter constituency netball tournament.. i think dear should be part of them.. she has the movements of a netball player.. $25 for 3 hrs work... not bad...

and today is basically TA1 training day... training them is a tough job.. have to keep them interested yet gotta drill them with the skills they need to pick up.. tough man.. kids nowadays.. just wanna play...

tml i'll be having an interview.. going to sell laptops during NTU/NUS matriculation fairs.. hope to make a quick buck during that period.. so people!! especially those entering UNI this yr or planning to change laptop.. please come find me k... LENOVO is a GOOD laptop.. I only sell stuff i'm confident in.. and this is one of them... cheap and good...

now for the most important announcement...

MY MOVIE ADDICT SITE IS UP... for the latest views on the latest MOVIES... check it OUT!! Just follow the link on the right-hand side bar to THE MOVIE ADDICT... clips, photos and a short review... i promise not to be a spoiler... :)

Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix

This is the 5th installment of the Harry Potter Saga, well I think the Order of the Phoenix doesnt have much significance in the story other than being a secret society, which harry potter discovers.. it's more about harry potter and dumbledore finally convincing the Ministry of Magic aka MOM, that the dark lord is back.. being just a watcher of harry potter movies.. most of my knowledge of the story comes solely from the movies.. this apparently keeps me from the disappointment many viewers have after watching the movies. BUT, they have to know this fact.. converting a book to a movie is hard work.. many many details have to be omitted to keep the movie in a considerable length.. otherwise it would have turned into a 10 part drama serial..

ok back to the movie.. being the 5th installment, there's quite a bit of improvement in the acting of the main characters, especially the most important trio. i think they have grown into their roles.. So basically i think this is the best harry potter movie so far.. good acting and nice story.. i'm looking forward to the half blood prince already...

Here's some nice pictures...

Transformers

This is a cartoon which i've loved since i was a kid.. though i only vaguely remember the storyline.. this movie had done quite a good job of transfering the story to the big screen. the movie was quite long actually almost 2.5hrs.. but it's not really dragging.. there's loads of action going on.. and the robots are a little too nimble.. they were like ninja.. haha.. but it all adds to the entertainment value. so overall i would say this show is great for Transformer lovers, action lovers.. pretty babe lovers too.. hahaa.. Megan Fox an eye catching, heads turning actress..


Here's some pictures.

New Movies Site

I've been watching lots of movies over the past years.. and i think it's time to have a site for myself where i could address my views on the shows i've watched.. so there will be a new site...

The Movie Addict

It's now under construction.. give it a few days.. it will be up and running...

Friday 13th

Today's friday 13th, but nothing much has happened to me today, cos i'm at home the whole day.. oh yah.. met dear for lunch just now.. wanted to go to the cafe at lion city hotel for lunch.. BUT it was under renovations, how unlucky is that!! oh well.. so we ate at the geylang serai food centre instead.. food there is still cheap and good..

the past week has been rather busy except for today, activities going on almost everyday.. wednesday was the finals for the primary school track and field meet.. and as expected the nigerian gal broke 2 records again.. and she was also named as the athlete of the championship.. why not rite?? I took quite a lot of photos on the final day.. see them at the usual fotopic website..

Here's a video clip of the nigerian gal's 100M finals.. just look at the huge gap at the finishing line..

Finally Blogging Again

Have not posted anything new here for almost 10 days.. and gosh!! it has been a tightly packed 10 days... Last week was totally filled with track & field activities.. Primary school track and field is drawing to a close and it's final day will be this coming wednesday.. while the higher divisions just began running last thursday at choa chu kang.. i went over to help out on friday too... there's very different atmosphere at both meets.. though most of the events are the same... but the student's priorities are so different.. the primary school kids just want everything to end quickly and get it over and done with.. while the higher divisions are focused on winning.. loads of pre-run antics.. and self-psyche going on.. it's just MUCH more intensed...

Tjvb BBq went on on saturday.. i think it's pretty successful, i think i pretty much enjoyed myself.. lots of activities going on.. and the food i prepared the whole morning was pretty much well accepted.. but there was still lots of leftover.. that i did not expect... i thought the food will be gobbled up.. oh well.. i guess that's cos the big eaters were not around.. like esther, jiaxian, alison... hahaa..

stayed over in schoool after the bbq, there was weifeng, vanessa, jp, keith and vanessa's dog(nobel)... wanyang, bingguang, markus, yinglan, lihui, jass and i went geylang for supper.. and took a tour of the various gals selling themselves at geylang.. wanyang was the tour guide.. hahaa.. in the end we bought some drinks and a watermelon back to tj.. and continued talking.. until some of us went konked...

sunday was supposed to be at ECP since morning for passion run.. luckily i pushed that away... otherwise i'll die of exhaustion.. hahaa.. so slept thru part of the morning and meet up with kurniawan and the 4e gang at ECp in the afternoon... just had a short chat.. and kurniawan left for dinner.. while the rest of us.. namely kaiyu, jane & tenghui went to the ECP hawker for dinner... queued for the wanton noodles which has very yummy looking char siew... the char siew actually has a machine specially made to cut it into slices.. hahaa.. damn lame... it's not bad.. but just a little expensive...

monday is also a hectic day... exhausted quite a bit of my petrol... went to toa payoh to hand in registration for pesta sukan, den went choa chu kang for track & field which was actually quite boring today.. cos seriously nothing for us to do... i was actually doing umpire.. which could end quite late and i needed to leave early to go back tj, so i swap duties with a fren.. and it turned out that his duty is totally redundant today.. so i had to walk around and make myself look useful today.. hahaa... easy $$.. crap... drove back to TJ to coach the TA1s a little... really hard to teach beginners.. cos they simply cant seem to do very simple things.. like throwing a ball properly... seemed an arduous task to them.. WTH!!

dinner was at bedok 85 market.. with the 4e gang and kurniawan again... this time we had more pple den on sunday... lots of food.. when eating a larger group.. ordering is fun.. HUGE orders of everything.. hahaa.. filled the table to the brim.. took some photos too.. and they are already up at the usual places...
