Bourne Ultimatum

Jason Bourne finally finds out his true Identity. This is the key focus of the film, after the past 2 prequels, this finally puts and end to the Jason Bourne Amnesia problem.. But there seems to be 2 more Novels after Bourne Ultimatum, which i doubt would be made into movies due to deviated storyline & plot... we shall see..

Continuing on the witty escapes and seemingly genius ways of killing and getting out of though situations, Bourne Ultimatum ties you down into your seat. Non-stop action from start to the end. Julia Stiles has a slightly longer role in this episode compared to the last 2, and she even hints of an affair with Bourne.. interesting.. too bad that was not built on in the show.. perhaps a basis for the next installment?

Classic Quote -
Noah Vosen: [in car, on cell phone] Perhaps we can arrange a meet.
Jason Bourne: Where are you now?
Noah Vosen: I'm sitting in my office.
Jason Bourne: I doubt that.
Noah Vosen: Why would you doubt that?
Jason Bourne: If you were in your office right now we'd be having this conversation face-to-face.

License To Wed

A Reverend Frank (Robin Williams) puts an engaged couple, Sadie & Ben (Mandy Moore and John Krasinski) through a grueling marriage preparation course to see if they are meant to be married in his church. This is not just a typical romance flick, you add in Robin Williams, you get a HILARIOUS Romantic flick.

Basically i decided to watch this show because of Robin Williams, he's a great entertainer.

Reverend Frank to Ben : So Ben, what have you been doing, besides little Sadie here.

I'm so Drained...

It's been a pretty busy week cos school is finally back in session... kindda hard getting back to the mentality of studying.. totally dread facing the books again.. though i haven bought any books this semester, the lecture notes are just as bad.. no matter how much i hate it.. i still have to go thru it.. sucky...

in the past week both the guys and gals vball teams from tj played their last match for the singapore open.. and the results for this whole tournament had been losses from start till the end.. it really sucks to play that badly.. but then again.. there's no one to blame cos we were lack of trainings...

It's GOING BACK TO SCHOOL for me...

The past week in NTU has been pretty easy.. compared to NUS, the crowd in NTU VERY VERY little.. den sales wasnt very high.. and i seriously think the "feng shui" of the booth quite bad... totally blocked from the view of the entrance... so yah.. sales werent very good... but the good thing is, this really leaves us with nothing much to do except to talk cock.. hahaa.. so yah.. quite fun also... but NUS still better... got more common ground to talk about....

The volleyball open is also drawing to a close for me soon... so we haven won a single game... due to the simple fact of lack of training... physcially and mentally totally not ready for such a competition.. so yah.. quite disappointing.. but no one to blame except myself..

So this is basically the end of all the fun and games and work i have for the past 3 months plus of holidays... it's been an enriching experience, this holiday... worked several part-time/temps.. made a bit of $$... gain loads of experience and frens too...

it's time for me to start checking NUSemail... start printing and reading notes... aarrgghhh...

anyway new photos taken during the NTU lenovo have been uploaded.. take a look...

NTU!!! Here i COME!!

First day of sales at NTU... not exactly wat i expected.. but not too bad.. there's quite a crowded even though i felt there wasnt much adverts being done for the roadshow.. BUT.. we din sell much... and NTU don't accept NETS payment.. at least NUS accepts NETS... so so dum.. hahaa.. den because of the system of ordering in NTU.. it's pretty hard to track how many sets you actually sold... so it din really matter... just help selling only... only 2 other fellow promoters from NUS are here in NTU... then there's quite a few new people... especially some with totally no experience or product training.. sianzZ... so i was actually one of the more experienced ones there.. wth...

still not feeling well... flu is still quite bad... breathing still difficult... wonder how to cope tml's work and vball match after that... oh well... one step at a time...

Rush Hour 3

Sniff Sniff!!

Laptop selling in NUS has ended.. Sales has been pretty good actually, and got quite a fair some of $$ from it too... so i'm quite happy with it...

National Day just felt like any other day... no special feeling at all.. feels kindda sad rite?? not enough hype in the event... not enough involvement by the people... mainly cos too much non-locals locally...

Ask some vball ppl over for steamboat on friday... quite a few din turn up... so there's only 6 of us... but i think we still had quite a good time.. got quite a bit of food left over though.. hahaa..

anyway... i wasnt feeling well the past few days... first it was very very bad sore throat... loads of phlegm... den finally i got rid of the phlegm.. came flu... nose totally blocked.... feeling cold... and weak... totally played like shit during the match against Hew Rockets just now... sucks....

sniff.. snifff....

Secret - 不能说的秘密

Jay Chou's latest involvement in the movie industry. It's a romantic love story, with the usual corniness which made him so unique. It's a movie with Jay Chou written all over, it seriously seems like Jay is fulfilling some childhood fantasy of his in this movie. It just made him look damn good... But!! This is a good movie to watch, the romantic essence of the movie will just make you go "aawwwww"..

Perfect Stranger

A suspense thriller with a huge twist in the show. From the start till almost the end, you'll guess who's the bad guy and who's the victim... as you go on.. you realise evidence pops up refuting your previous argument..

It's a very intriguing plot... it keeps you locked into the storyline... you want to solve the case... and yet everytime u take a step forward you realise you are going in circles... the ending is just simply unexpected...

Great acting from Bruce Willis & Halle Berry, really kept the suspense going on throughout the whole show..

A new week..

A new week has begun... back to sales in NUS... 8 sold today... quite a poor result... gotta try harder... let see how tml goes...

watched Perfect Stranger over the weekend & watched Secret just now... More detailed reviews can be found in my movie addict website...

A full Boot

The day started off with a good lunch at the coffeeshop near yanli's place.. Off to Expo for the Popular Bookstore Warehouse Sale... bought some stationary there.. and 2 document drawers... those stuff took up most of the space in my boot...

Thereafter, we went to Giordano Warehouse Sale.. Spent more than a hundred bucks there on 4 bottoms and 7 tops... bery bery cheap.. hahaa... and that basically filled my boot to the brim...

Down to Hougang Stadium... first match of Open... Against NTU... We would really have a good chance of winning if only we had more practices under our belt... but we did not play too badly considering is the VERY FIRST time we are playing together on the same team.. Lost 3-1... But it's okay... the tournament has only just begun...

Sell, Sell & Sell!!!

For the past five days, i've been spending most of my time in NUS MPSH 1.. standing there in a rather nice Lenovo, dryfit tshirt, with a clear folder in my arms.. all ready to tackle any questions about the Lenovo Thinkpads.. X61 & T61.. These are the 2 models which i was promoting at the Matric Fair and Laptop Roadshow... Sales weren't too bad i would say... sold 41 laptops over the span of 5days... but that's definitely not the best result.. i think i'm only middle range the top seller has almost 80 sold over the 5 days... BUT, i think i could do more if i really sold actively.. Starting a conversation & creating an interest is not my forte.. wat i do best is remember facts and make sure watever i explain gets across to the audience.. oh yah, i also have a knack for understand all kinds of accents, PRCs, Indians, Americans, Vietnamese, Malaysia even French... hahaa.. and i would always speak to these people with a tinge of their accent, it's done subconsiously but it somehow works in a to make them understand me.. so i guess it's not offending.. :)

This whole week is fruitful, the experience of selling a product is new to me.. and i'm grateful that i'm working and leading a team of guys who are not there to just pull up their own numbers, instead we have been helping each other close deal over the past days.. especially today... i've been slacking for most of the day.. all i did was helping out in demostrations and explanations... and they would occasionally put my name as the sales person on their order form for me.. helping me get 6 sets sold on my numbers today.. otherwise it could have been a big fat zero... i really couldnt care less about my numbers... as long as we are selling as a team... it's fine... great ppl to work with.. working in a team that ACTUALLY works AS a TEAM.. just makes everything much more enjoyable...

I'm looking forward to next week, recharge over the weekend, so i wont be lethargic like today... hahaa.. next week there's only 3 days of sales.. let's see if i can hit 40 in those 3 days...

Tml makes the start of the volleyball open for the guys team... first up is NTU... judging by the state of their current team... there's a high chance we can actually win.. so for now... it's time to sleep...

Matric Fair Over

Part one of my 3-part laptop selling is over. Matric fair is over, all the freshies have supposedly visited the laptop booths and gotten their laptops... but there's still many who have not decided wat to get yet and would probably come back in the next few days.. from tml onwards till next wednesday the road show is still on and is also open to all students and staff member of NUS.. i hope i can actually clock more sales in the following days..

didnt sell much today, but i did a lot of talking and persuading.. cos i was happily helping my team members to sell.. as long as we can convince others of our superior product and achieve numbers, it doesnt matter who sells it... so yah.. basically i've been hiding in within the booth the whole day.. and i'll help others explain and add on with charateristics of our laptops... although totaly numbers have not been soring high.. but i believe customers will return to us eventually...

today also marks the first match of the volleyball open... rush down to hougang from NUS.. really took quite a long time to get there.. traffic is bad everywhere... no matter where i was coming from.. that kindda sucks... gals team played against TNT which is actually " The National Team" a bunch of national team players from my era... hahaa..so basically no chance of winning.. but towards the 3rd set.. there's lot of improvement and confidence level is building...

and now it's time for me to hit the bunk.. i'm tired..

Dead Tired

It's been more than a week since my last post, last week is basically going thru training to be a good laptop sales person, which actually is totally insufficient. But luckily over the course of the training, i learn about Lenovo and how this laptop is actually REALLY good. because of this i build confidence IN the product.

Monday was the first day of the matric fair in NUS, only manage to sell 6 laptops.. and i was really lucky to get the last 4 sales cos they were like already wanted to buy.. all i had to do was to reinforce their decision..

Today, tuesday is actually much better... At least i am more confident in speaking and creating a conversation with the customers.. and really manage to convince a few customers to buy.. and i managed 11 laptops in total today.. basically, i'm trying to sell as much as possible not cos i'm grubbing for the commission which is actually VERY little... it's like the least among ALL the vendors there.. instead, i want to build up my confidence in speaking and selling, since this is my first ever sales job.. and also i'm confident inthe product, especially it's durability.. i'm going to get one Myself!! mum has agreed to pay... hahahaa..

but the consequence from these 2 days of selling are VERY sore feet and quite a hoarse voice now... been stand from 9am to 6pm with only about a half hr break in between.. wonder how am i going to withstand the next 10 over days... TIRED...

Volleyball open will begin on wednesday... wooo... it's time for a new season...

ok.. i'm too tired now... cant think anymore... zzzzz
