Ella Enchanted
Just finished watching Ella Enchanted.. A pretty good movie.. I think that the actress is so beautiful.. Oh well, where's my prince? haha.. School's starting tomorrow.. Gotta get some rest now.. Hope everything goes fine for a brand new term in school.. =)
Movie: Ella Enchanted
Description: Similar to SHREK and THE PRINCESS BRIDE, this fantasy adventure, based on a book by Gail Carson Levine, combines fairy tale with sly, 21st century pop humor. Teenage Ella (THE PRINCESS DIARIES' Anne Hathaway) lives in Frell, a magical place where humans, fairies, ogres, and other mythical folk peacefully coexist. However, when power-mad Prince Regent Edgar (Cary Elwes) passes laws that segregate humans from everyone else, Ella becomes determined to win equal rights for all. This task presents a challenge for anyone, but especially for Ella, who at birth was given the dubious gift of obedience by Lucinda (Vivica A. Fox), a fairy with an attitude.
When she finds an ally, and love interest, in the almost-king Prince Charmont (Hugh Darcy), she invokes the ire of her witchy stepsister Hattie (Lucy Punch), who has figured out that Ella must obey any command. Between avoiding her stepsister, trying to break the spell, and restoring justice to the kingdom, will Ella find time for true love?

30, Flirty & Thriving
30, Flirty & Thriving -- A quote I've taken from the unreleased movie, 13 Going On 30.. It won't be up in the cinemas so soon I guess.. I saw the short preview of it when I went for the movie last night.. I thought that it seemed real good.. So I came back home to download and I've just finished watching it.. Oh man~ This is something that you can't miss.. I love this movie..
Anyway, I've just downloaded another new movie called Ella Enchanted.. So tempted to watch now.. Well, I've already peeked a bit of the movie.. haha.. and it seems interesting.. School's starting tomorrow.. *Poutz*
Movie: 13 Going On 30
(Kinda Long) Description: It is 1987 and Jenna is a 13-year-old girl on the brink of womanhood. The problem is that adulthood is just not arriving fast enough. She's suffocated by her dorky parents, ignored by the hip kids in school--and the cute guy she has a crush on barely knows her name. No longer content to spend time only with her best friend and neighbour, Matt Flamhaff, Jenna invites the cool kids to her 13th birthday party. But the party is a disaster. Jenna is humiliated when she's locked in the closet for a game of "Seven Minutes in Heaven" and everyone deserts her. Alone in the closet, Jenna makes an earnest wish. If only she could be all grown up, she'd have the life she's always wanted.
Miraculously, her wish comes true. The next day, when Jenna emerges from the closet, it's 2004 and she's 30 years old. What's more, she is a gorgeous successful woman with a great job and a fabulous Fifth Avenue apartment. She is finally cool and popular. The only hitch? She has absolutely no idiea how she got there. Initially frightened but gradually enchanted by her new life, Jenna soon realizes there's something missing--Matt. When she looks him up, she is horrified to discover that she and Matt are no longer in contact and, furthermore, he is engaged to be married. Jenna learns that 'having it all' is not enough and decides to take a second chance at first love. Now her biggest wish is that it's not too late.

Windstruck
Woke up kinda early today (for me).. Pam came over to my house to meet me, then we went out together with Zong Xian too.. Accompanied him to get his sis's present at Perlini's Silver.. Pam went off when it's time for her boyfriend to knock off.. Then we went to catch a movie again! I'm really a movie maniac..
Anyway, thanks my friends for concering about my sickness.. I'm feeling better now.. But have not fully recover.. Such a coincidence that Amanda got food poisoning too.. We were there at the same place and time eating steamboat.. Seems that the food there is really contaminated..

It's her birthday on the 26th.. yeah.. poor me~ So I accompanied her to look for her boyfriend at work and then we 2 went for a free treat by Andrew at Swenson's.. We had our fill and had a free pic taken as a gift from Swenson's.. =)
Accompanied her to Heeren to buy some accesories and I had to rush off to meet Chel & company at marina bay.. We had steamboat and I didn't eat much as I've already ate before that.. Went to meet Zong Xian for awhile before heading home..
Today: Got woken up by sharp pain at my stomach.. I thought it was merely gastric pains at first.. But it got worst.. The pain was unbearable.. I then realised it was food poisoning.. Haiz.. Then came my cramps.. What the.. Argh.. I had a terrible time struggling with the pain..

Dead Beat
Currently in an unconscious state of mind.. has gotten only an hr of rest for the whole night.. met up with Zong Xian and Michael for billiard and bumped into Kian Hian.. His table was next to ours only.. what a coincidence..
We then went over to Lido to grab a bite and slacked a little before going to Marina South.. We bowled for 3 games and were stuck at the Initial D machine for hours thereafter.. haha.. we actually wanted to take a cab home when it was 6 in the morning.. but we just walked till we reached marina bay station.. lol.. that was kinda far..
Only had an hour of rest and was preparing to go for the Za make-up class, when Elynn suddenly said that she's not going.. -__-" gonna kill her for it!~ there goes my Za hamper.. ah nvm.. so here I am now, half dead, blogging away.. *eyes half opened*
Shall be meeting Chel and company later to celebrate Lx's belated birthday (it was on the 24th).. Oh well, shall rest for awhile..

Mean Girls Rocks!
Monday: Zong Xian asked me out in the evening for billiard with his friends.. He wanted to thrash me in it.. How mean~ We then went to catch a midnight movie called Undead.. Well, it sucks.. Never ever think of watching that.. I didn't understand the story at all and it was simply lame.. Yucks!
After movie was a walk to the esplanade.. We stopped by Bencoolen Kopitiam for some refreshments too.. We sat by the bay and chatted till day breaks.. They decided to go over to one of the guy's house for breakfast and I joined them after much consideration.. It was already noon when I got home.. Dead beat~
Tuesday: Managed to get up in time to meet Elynn for the movie premier organised by Teenage magazine.. They had a Best Dresser of the Night contest and I was 1 of the 3 selected.. No, I wasn't overdressed.. I was only wearing a Gio tank top and a pair of Levi's jeans.. So it came by surprise.. But happy to receive the freebies though.. Heheh.. The movie was awesome! Mean Girls simply rocks!

We then went to Chinatown to meet Leon for dinner.. I love the Chang Chen porridge.. *drooLz* Received my present from Elynn and it was a huge Pooh and Family jigsaw! I like it very much~ Thanks lynnie.. =) One of my favourite birthday presents I've received from the past years, was from her too.. It was a Pooh cross-stich with my name on it.. Aww.. So sweet.. =D
Got to talk to Bee for an hour plus before sleeping.. No quarrels.. *smiLez*
Today: Woke up from coma after 17 hours.. Haven't had such a long rest for ages.. Pam wanted to meet me in the afternoon but she couldn't get me.. Anyway, she should know she has to tell me beforehand if she wants to meet me.. 'Cause I'm usually in bed in the day.. Haha.. 15 min more to Henry's birthday.. he should be celebrating outside now since he's not online..
I've just received my Entry Proof for my O's this year.. Oh man~ I'm gonna die in the hands of Mathematics.. Accompanied with the Profiling Project due at the end of Year 2, I suddenly feel so stressed up.. Alright, cast them aside for now.. It's time to fill up my stomach..

Birthday Celebration
I swear I would never want to celebrate my birthday at a danceclub anymore.. Once is enough.. *shakes head*
Was supposed to meet Alicia at 8pm.. but she was getting her tatoo and made me wait for an hour! was so fed up I went to meet Amanda and Melvin at bugis.. Met up with Zong Xian on the way and he passed me my present.. It was a Stussy t-shirt~ heheh..
Had dinner at Swenson's with Amanda and Melvin, then went to Rav to meet up with Elynn and Leon.. Alicia came after an hour too.. I started off ordering a bottle of Absolut Vodka and we played a dice game.. All of them was out to get me drunk.. I had many glasses of pure vodka 'on the rock'.. This is not all yet..
Then came the Terry, the bartender, making me a 'waterfall'.. I was drinking a glass of alcohol on flames.. It tasted minty~ After that, the manager treated me to a glass of cocktail.. I didn't know what drink was it though.. I just knew that it tasted like strawberry milkshake with jelly at the bottom.. Quite a nice drink~
Nono.. I'm still not done with these drinks.. Then the waitress came with a small glass of alcohol that's 'neat'.. Heard from her that it was from Terry again.. I was already bloated by then.. Leon and Melvin still went to order a bottle of Martell! Oh my~ I knew I had to prepare going home drunk already.. Continued to drink with them 'on the rock' and Wei Liang came.. Had to drink with another person now.. *Pengz*
Then the girls went for a dance.. During that time, we heard that Melvin were caught for Awar.. *Sigh* Amanda and Wei Liang left after that.. Awhile after that.. The 'kick' came and I started vomiting.. Was awake the whole night but head was really dizzy that I couldn't even walk.. Rested outside Rav until I was awake and then Bee came to fetch me home.. Had a long scolding from him for drinking so much.. 'Cause he had never seen me drunk before, so he knew I drank a lot..
Had a bath and went straight to bed as my head was spinning vigorously.. The feeling was terrible man.. Argh~
Received presents from Amanda, Wei Liang and my brother last night.. Amanda gave me a set of accessories.. Wei Liang gave me a Pooh.. The head can shake when absobing solar energy.. I liked it very much.. Always used to stare at it for a long time outside the shop's glass window.. heheh.. My brother gave me a car model of Initial D's Trueno 86~ Dou Fu Che~! Haha..
I've yet to receive Alicia, Elynn and Terry's presents.. Will be getting from them next week.. Can't wait~ =D
Back to my television now.. It's horror movie! My favourite..
*Poof*

My Birthday!
My brother woke me up in the afternoon, asking me to go PS with him.. Well, he said he wanted to get me my present.. So I kinda woke up from my sleep.. Heheh.. We then started walking around the shopping centre for awhile only, before he tried to find excuses to go to the arcade.. Only then that I found out he did not bring money to buy my present.. -__-" He cheated me to go out with him..
Bumped into Garett at the arcade and had a word or two with him.. It's been a long time since I last saw him.. He still looks the same anyway.. Went to meet my mum, sis and her boyfriend for dinner after that.. I missed the food at Toa Payoh.. Simply mouth-slavering..
After dinner was bowling and karaoke session at SPANS clubhouse.. Everything ended at 1 plus and we headed home.. Had a nice time with my family.. =)
Bee then came over to meet me.. He didn't want to tell me where he was bringing me.. I then figured out the place while we were travelling there.. It was Jurong Hill - my favourite place to go at night.. The place is peaceful and the scenery is beautiful.. I finally got to go there again after a long time..
He then got to know of something and started to reprimand me.. It spoilt my whole day and dampens my mood till now..
I was so sad that I began crying again when I got home.. My birthday sucks this year.. I hate this feeling..
This is the first time I did not have a birthday cake.. No candles for me to blow this year.. *Sigh*
My birthday wish didn't come true after all..

Got a Haircut
Well well well.. what have I done for today.. Slept at 8 plus in the morning and was late in meeting Elynn at Bukit Batok.. We both went for a haircut and it took her 3 hours to get her hair dyed.. *YawNz*
Had dinner at Westmall and the place was kinda boring to shop.. *Poutz* Elynn's boyfriend came over to fetch us and gave me a lift to Yishun, where I met Zong Xian and his friends for movie.. Hmm.. I've been watching so many movies lately, that I've almost seen all that's up in the cinemas..
Movie: Around the World in 80 Days
Brief Description: An eccentric London inventor, Phileas Fogg (STEVE COOGAN), has come up with the secrets to flight, electricity, and even rollerblades, but the world has dismissed him as a crackpot. Desperate to be taken seriously, Fogg makes an outlandish bet with Lord Kelvin (JIM BROADBENT), the head of the Royal Academy of Science: to circumnavigate the globe in no more than 80 days! With his two sidekicks - Passepartout (JACKIE CHAN) and femme fatale Monique (CECILE DE FRANCE) - Fogg is headed on a frantic, heart-pounding round-the-world race that takes our heroes to the world's most exotic places by land, sea, and air.

Ho-Hum
Met up with Alicia and Elynn yesterday for a walk in town.. Watched the last episode of the 9pm show on channel 8 and then went for a pool session.. The girls decided to go home when it's time to catch the last train, so I went to accompany Zong Xian for supper.. Ahh~ I've been so sinful nowadays to be having supper! *Looks at my bulged out tummy* Oh my~ I need to control my intake man..
*Sigh* I've got no mood to plan for my birthday celebration this weekend.. Shall not call it 'celebration' though.. 'cause I don't even intend to celebrate it.. It's the first out of the 19 years I'm feeling this way.. =S

Retro
Am in sleepy mode now.. *Listening to Bananarama's Venus* Cool~~ Hmm.. Getting more and more lazy in blogging already.. Boring lifestyle.. Bah~
I went to his workplace on wednesday to pass him his present.. Really happy to see him.. Even though I was late in meeting Moreena at orchard, I just didn't want to leave so soon. Yeah.. got nagged by her when I reached.. Saw Alicia at orchard in the evening and she was going Mohd. Sultan later on, so I didn't join her.. So I went to meet up with Henry who was also in town at that time.. Decided to catch a movie then 'cause I was going to meet up with the special he.. I had to stay out to wait for him to finish up his matters.. Henry and I ended up watching The Best Bet..
I realised that I've watched almost all the movies that are up in the cinemas.. You name it, I've watched it. The next movie I wanna watch would be Spiderman 2! Yup.. seems to be interesting from the trailer.. Anyway, I met up with him just for supper and it started to drizzle, so we headed home..
Friday: Didn't plan to go out at all, until I received an sms from him asking me whether I'll want to go JB with him.. I agreed without second thought.. He used to bring me along whenever he was going there.. Even though it was just a short trip, I didn't mind at all..
*Playing Valentine's Over and Over Again*
I'm even more into retro now after some recommendations from Terry..
Saturday: Was planning to stay home too.. Then came Elynn's sms asking whether I'll like to join her at MU.. Hmm.. I don't like the place actually.. But decided to go for a walk out of home, so I went.. Stayed there for less than an hr and the techno there is already giving me a headache.. Went over to Rav instead.. I just love the r&b there.. =) Lots of gamblers eyes' were glued to the projector's screen.. The crowd were crazy over Euro last night.. =S
Time for dinner and tv now~

Finally Blogging Again
It's been a long time since I last updated this little space here.. Well, lots of stuff happened for the past week.. More of the good than bad stuff though.. Not bad eh..
Hmm.. Spent the whole night doing my bike model.. It's a Hayabusa.. Since there isn't any GSX 1000 so I got this instead.. Spent half a day on sunday and last night to complete it.. Yeah~ Kinda happy 'cause I finished it pretty fast.. Anyway, it meant to be a belated birthday present for you should know who..
Recently signed up for as a member in the photography club.. Kinda interested in it but I wonder whether I can stay put in there.. Ohh.. and I cancelled my application to join tennis.. Don't really like the facilitator-in-charge anyway..
Sunday: Went out with my family, aunt, grandma and sis's bf to bugis.. Dinner was at Tian Tian Restaurant to celebrate my mum's birthday in advanced.. 'Cause my sis wont be free on the 10th.. Anyway, my birthday was supposed to be on the 9th.. The doctor estimated my birth date to be on that day, but I ended up making my mum lie in the hospital for 10 more days before I pop out.. Heheh..
After dinner, we walked around bugis junction before my aunt and grandma headed back home.. We then went to SPANS clubhouse for karaoke.. It was a senior citizen ktv.. Gosh.. My sis and I was trying very hard to bear with the 80s hit songs.. As long as mum's happy, we don't mind at all! =) It was my first time drinking with mum.. haha.. She was kinda surprised that I drink, 'cause I only drank with my sis before.. It was my first time tasting sis's favourite stout.. and I don't think I like it..
Oops.. (spelling corrected by Xian) It's already 11am.. Would like to write more but I think I shall get some sleep first.. I wouldn't want to wake up in the wee hours of the morning.. (FYI. I usually sleep 12 hours)
This is the final product of my busa:
