hey..long time since i updated on my life..let's see..i had mugging period..den exams..den post-exams..one by one..hehe..

mugging period is anytime before the actual paper i guess..not very productive..always easily distracted by tv..net..msn..etc etc..sigh..mugging styles for every modules varies greatly..some muz memorise..some muz research..some muz understand and give examples..a very stressful period!

exams even more dun need to say..very very scared seriously..muz dabao..wad someone said was v true..it's A's every 3 months once agn..i just hope to pass..and i hope my term time projects will help abit..

post-exams shd be most happening ba..or most un-happening..depending on how u view work..yes..i've been working shortly after my exams until now..so that's abt 2 wks alr..i got 3 part-time jobs..first to commence is this door-to-door survey for mcys, second is the waitressing job at noodle house ken, last is the telephone survey in my sch..

but notice i said i started working shortly after my exams ended? so for that very short period of free time i watched alotof shows and movies! haha..some legitimately in cinemas, some dl-ed..i shall provide a short review on each..

the exorcism of emily rose. it was scary..but doesn't last long..and it sets you pondering abt the existence of god and demons once agn..cos it was filmed from a religious perspective rather than the scientific one..it shows the priest's narration of the process..and it will affect your judgment more or less..for me i start to believe a little in demons..not so much god cos he wasn't really mentioned..it was more focused on the dark forces..yea..initially i was very convinced that emily was epileptic and definitely not possessed..but as the film progresses..it will sway you a little..

saw 2. this is obviously illegitimate..since it's not even out yet. i wonder if it helps doing a review here..cos i dunno if anyone here has watched saw 1. anyway, it has less of the emotional and psychological erm..torment..present in saw 1..and more physical pain and outright torture..how do i explain this..hmm..for saw 1..it affected me because i feel desperate and helpless for the victims..i see how they struggled to survive..i feel like i'm in their situation but cannot do anything to help..whereas for saw 2, it's just the normal feeling of watching a horror film..knowing what's going on and just expecting to see what happens next..the victims dun really have a chance to struggle and it dampens the whole saw spirit..or culture..or however you say it..cos ya..victims are supposed to help themselves and each other out of the situation..but in the second film it's all selfish moves and a pointless twist..that's how i see it..

desperate housewives season 1. i finally did it! haha..catching up on what i've missed..it's seriously a addictive series..i can spend one whole aftn just watching it..and i finally understand the plot for myself..it's not entirely bimbotic without a basis..but just slightly. haha. aiya..it has all genres of drama fitted into one wad..it has to have its funny bits. anyway, i enjoyed it greatly! getting a little irritated by bree though..

desperate housewives season 2. just a continuation from the last episode of season 1..where mike returns home to where zach is waiting with a gun..yea..only got episodes 1 to 6..and just a spoiler here..mike and susan might breakup! cos susan indirectly sent zach away..i guess u all have to watch it to understand..dun wanna put too many spoilers here..hehe.

i also re-watched butterfly effect and charlie and the chocolate factory. and..i have sin city, friends seasons 1 and 2, a bittersweet life (laogong's latest film! -squeals- ), wait till you grow older (andy lau's film, where he lives thru a whole lifetime in a day), coach carter, just like heaven, and full house (song hye kyo and rain's drama serial!!) unwatched! hehe..i know i've committed a double sin by being a media student AND a pirate..so..ya..i've stopped.. :\ on a brighter note, next time htg got stayover dun need to rent vcd? (:

wow, i still haven't mentioned my jobs yet..haha! the two survey jobs dun really need to describe la huh..since no fixed working hours one..but still, if you all have friends/relatives who are single and btw 25-44 years old, just tell me k! and try to convince them to help me do the survey! it's abt finding out more abt the dating attitudes of singles..yup..

noodle house ken! it's at orchard plaza..the brown and old building u see after walking past OG in the plaza sing direction..can come for htg dinner if u all want..though i dun work everyday..and abit ex..haha..prices similar to ajisen..but the food is better than ajisen according to the japanese..yup..it's fun working there..haha..the boss, whom we call ken-san..is very friendly and jovial..haha..speaks broken english with alotof sound effects and gestures..another kitchen helper whom we call auntie oso very cute..haha..always chuan2 chu1 fei3 wen2 with ken-san..yesterday really laugh until wanna die..their actions alr funny enough..den somemore got language problem..niu tou bu dui ma zui..so alw muz repeat..so laugh alotof times..very hard to describe la..but they're a cute and funny bunch..and yesterday auntie say i learn very fast! so happy..hehe..

learnt alotof things there..like the japanese names for some food, how to deal with cash, nets and credit cards, how to serve customers, how to notice little things around you..it's always good to try a new kind of job..until now i've did waitressing/cashier, telemarketing, surveying, data entry, admin..used to think sales is something i'll never do..but now i think it's not impossible..as long as you're not afraid to try.. (:

yep..hope you all are reading after your exams..so in that case hurray! welcome to the holidaying club! haha..i'm going to the airport to pick kiu up..around midnight..haha..he's finally back!! yayyy! htg outing should materialise soon :D
