Counting Down

I missed blogging yesterday. Too tired. Lol! Work has been piling up and up and up. Starting to feel the heat.

School has been pretty boring. Except for the friends I see everyday. Lol!

Today I hear some shock and sad news about someone. Early morning some more. Quite sian to hear these kinda news. It's never ending. I just hope all these wont affect my friendship with anyone again. I've always been a victim of such malicious acts done behind my back. Well, forget it.

After school I headed to Tagore Lane to look for Boss as he's having meeting with Godma, Godsis, Bro Francis and Bro Jason. The invitation card is very nice I saw today! (",)

Anyway halfway through the meeting, Boss said something very touching and Godma cried. First time seeing her cry. It's really touching.

Headed down to Civic Centre later to meet our latest members of RIG. They seem very motivated and passionate about the whole thing. I really hope we can work things out together and make RIG very successful!

Oh ya, and Mandy and Evon spoiler. Show me my present before Sunday's event. So bad. I have to tell them to bring home and bring again on Sunday. Lol! And sweet Helen wanted to buy me something very very expensive. But I told her not to already. I really really appreciate the thought! Thanks!

Bukit Timah Plaza is our last stop. There were some last minute changes and Boss was very angry, he scream at Eileen. Poor Eileen, caught in the middle of nowhere, she didnt know what to do. I mean, first time I see Boss so fierce to her also. She almost broke down I think. Luckily everything was settled. It's good to learn from Boss, as in the way he handles such situations. I think I'd have reacted like Kelvin today, so it's a good learning experience for me. Books can bring you somewhere but EXPERIENCE brings you everywhere.

Anyway, did any of you see my picture at TODAY paper? Lol! Must thanks Eileen for giving me such a good exposure. Thank you Eileen Da Jie!

I didnt join them for dinner as I didnt feel like eating. One thing I have to finish up my homework, the other is I really feel stressed up. Somethings I cant really write out here. But I really feel the pressure and I feel bad because I know I am the cause of it. Haiz. I just hope everything can turn out well.

Movie Review - Blood Ties

Blood Ties (还魂)

Movie Synopsis

On the 7th night of his death, Shun's spirit returns to possess his little sister Qing to exact revenge on those who brutally murdered him and his beloved wife. This is a thriller set in a supernatural context, with characters caught in a web of love, betrayal, and revenge. This tale of vengeance starts with Qing, already possessed, trying to enlist the help of his ex-colleague to seek his revenge. The whole story unfolds in the course of one night, as we see how a little girl possessed by a man, hunts down his killers one by one.

Movie Review

Overall I felt that the movie was great! I like the plot as well as how the movie sequence is arranged. At first I really cannot tell what is going on. But the movie offers a couple of good twists here and there, revealing what actually happened till the very end. So it's suspense and surprises all the way till the end of movie. Also the movie is filmed in a very "Hong Kong movie" fashion, which takes local production to greater heights. Sound effects are nicely done unlike most horror flicks which provides unnecessary and too much "scare" effects, this movie's well balanced

What I didnt like about the movie is the violence. I expected more graphical violence! Lol! Ok , I'm not encouraging violence or what, but having a rating of M18, I expected a little more. But for the faint heart and the not-so-gore supporters, this movie is just nice. It gives the faint idea of what's going on, showing the end phase with not so much graphical effects.



I think this is a movie worth watching! Let's all support local production!

Bonus: The theme songs are really nice too!

Overall rating - 4 / 5

Gala Premiere - Blood Ties (还魂)

School is beginning to get pretty mundane. Luckily I made a few new friends. Lol! I love my maths lecturer, Mr Syed. He is damn funny and he brought life into the entire lecture theatre. I just couldnt fall alseep during lecture. And that's good!



I almost missed a great opportunity today. I missed a call from Pin Ming laoshi because of lecture. Luckily he called Boss and Boss quickly call me after lesson to tell me the good news. We are invited to attend the Gala Premiere of the movie "Blood Ties" (还魂).



And so, me, Boss, God sis Sarah and Jason bro, headed to Vivo City. It was quite crowded there as alot of people attended the premiere. We met laoshi and he passed us our tickets. We hung around. Saw Jae Leung from S-Pop. Havent seen him since producing the charity song for him last year. (",)



Anyway we walked pass the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) booth and I donated my bit while chatting with the friendly staffs to find out more about UNIFEM.





After that we hung around. Saw a few of the casts of the film. One of them is the Caucasian guy as tourist in the movie. He is Jeane's friend. What a small world. The other cast we met is one of the lead actor Vincent. He is very warm and very friendly!



Oh ya, we met Patricia Mok too! She is very beautiful, unlike her image on-screen. Lol. And she is also very warm and sociable. No airs at all. We had fun chatting around.



We saw Chong sitting one corner alone. He says he wants to sleep already. Forever so funny. (",)

Soon after we headed into the cinema to wait for the movie screening. Before the movie started, the director, and main leads came in to say a few words together with the emcee cum cast UFM 1003 DJ Jian Wen 大哥! He acted pretty well in the movie. Lol!



Before movie started, we took a few shots in the cinema. We took a few funny poses. Lol!

After movie we went to Geylang's famous dim sum restuarant for dinner cum supper. Very nice food there! So full now. Lol.

Headed home after that. Thanks laoshi for the invite! Thanks God sis for the dinner!

Today is teachers' day. So wanna wish all my teachers and all the teachers a very Happy Teachers' Day! Thank you for imparting to all of us your precious knowledge, skills as well as your time and effort! Without you, the world cant survive. So teachers are actually very important people. Ok, I'm going to bed! Good Night everybody!
