The week before Year 3 starts
Finally moved into the hostel on Monday. wow, climbing 3 floors up carrying heavy stuffs is really a task! thanks Sam, for offering to help me carry the things! never thought i have that much things to bring... furthermore, i left out my pot & pan! gosh, these 2 cooking utensils mean the most to me as i'll starve without them :p the thought of eating every meal at the cafeteria sends chills to my spine!
the fan in the bedroom is fixed on the wall directly above the double decker bed. so, it has to be repostioned or else Tze Hui wouldn't be able to sleep at nite! i still have to go back to the campus for registration on thursday. hope to see my roommate by then to settle the matters.
i'm going to shanghai this thursday nite for around 8 days. Yeah! at least i can go somewhere before starting 3rd year. but then i have to skip a week's class. well, teaching won't start so early & maybe i won't miss many things! Dear friends, please do keep me informed of anything important in Unim! i'll try to get you people something as souvenir! haha...
as i won't be in for the 1st week, hopefully everything is settled when i return to the campus... till then, happy returning to the campus! ;)
A Big Fat Orange surprise!
well, expectations play a really important role on how you see things! after reading thru not so good reviews on Garfield 2, i didn't hv any expectations on the movie. i just went because i promised my younger sister long long time ago that i'll spend her this movie. frankly speaking, it turned out to be quite entertaining. at least it provided more laughs than the 2 movies i watched a day ago...
a nice movie followed by sushi feast as dinner! what more can i ask for? haha... sushi king is having a promotion for its member by selling every plate of sushi on the kaiten belt for only RM2! this is one nite that i've eaten a lot of ebi tempura, scallops & salmon sushi! Oishi... i wish they'll have another round of promotion in near future!
Lame movies...
i made a trip to midvalley with my friend today. we went for 2 movies which are The Break-Up & Monster House. both movies are nothing spectacular but not too bad as well. so, the final verdict is... LAME!
The Break-Up is obviously meant for couples. you learn about how to live with someone else through give & take. no impact on me since i'm still single! just makes me wonder why does love make people suffer? and yet many people fall for it! sure there are times of sweetness but not many of them last. thus, love is no game for one who long for freedom... i still hope for the best for all couples out there!
meanwhile, Monster House is no kiddie movie. It belongs to the horror genre but not horrifying enough (for most people)... it is also not "childish" enough to sustain kids' interest. well, sorry to say that i yawned throughout the movie! i just can't believe that a spirit can possess & control a house like that... cracks are automatically healed??? i guess it is only possible in cartoons or animation! not even the name of Steven Spielberg can save this...
it has been a long long time since i'm really touched by a movie. the worst thing is i couldn't remember when?! CG animation used to be a hit with Toy Story, Shrek etc. but they are now lacking fresh ideas. the main storyline or theme seems to be repeating over and over again.
maybe i should lower my expectations for the definition of a "good movie" or should i just wait for the next masterpiece to appear?
