SG 0005 MY Ex

It had been quite sometime looking someone to go for horror movie in Singapore, finally I found a friend who want to go for horror movie. It is not because I scared of the movie, sometime I like to go with some friends. We reached at Plaza Singapura on Sunday about 4:30 p.m and bought our ticket. The movie we watch was “The Ex”.

Basically the stories an actor who broke up with his pregnant girl friend and fall in love with others ladies. The pregnant ladies later committed suicide and she becomes the ghost who kills all his other girl friends.

Honestly, I though Thai horror movie will be quite scary. However this movie had disappointed me. We paid money for horror actually to be expected to be scared by the movie, but the movie never did this part successfully.

1. The movie more like using the sound effect to scare the audiences. It just a trick here. When come to certain moment when you felt sleepy suddenly a loud sound from the movie without any meanings
2. Story line too common, no creative at all. You will know what will happen next. The stories never made the audience felt like want to know what will happened next.
3. The movie actually happened with in 3 day time but the way the director presents the movie like happened many days already.
4. The reporter was dead without any reason at all. I still can’t understand why the ghost wanted to kill him.
5. a good horror movie must make the audience almost can’t breath, but The Ex fail to do so. I still remember when i first time watch Alien, I almost can’t breath when the alien start hunting the human. You just never know what will happen next. You will just hope that they are fine.

Overall Comment, no worth to have a watch if you like horror movie.

SG0004 Inner Thoughts

同樣的景色；不同的心情；詮釋的角度也不一樣

喜歡一個人走在新加坡的大街上，享受一個人的下午。我可以拿著一臺40D或是µ8000 就這樣邊走邊拍。廣大的城市，一個人走在艷陽下，帶著一點的寂寞和孤單，把心情攝在鏡頭。

I like to enjoy my whole afternoon carrying my 40D or µ8000 walking alone in the city. Together with my loneliness, I capture my feeling into the lens.

Same sceneries, different mood, interpretation will be different.

This picture i took when i walked with a friend at the Esplanate. A lots of balloons floating on the river.  From the far, we could see some writing on the balloons. It just a quiet Friday……

SG0003 Legion…..

I went for a movie called “Legion 《基督再臨》” with a friend at The Cathay. It was later Sunday afternoon but the cinema almost fully occupied.

 

About the movie:

After God loses faith in humanity, the archangel Michael (Paul Bettany), who has become a fallen angel, is the only one standing between mankind and Armageddon. This time using angels to execute the Last Judgment, God's wrath descends on Earth to exterminate the world's population. In a desperate, last-chance gambit, Michael leads a group of strangers in a small New Mexicodiner to become unlikely heroes to protect a young waitress (Adrianne Palicki). Ultimately, Michael sacrifices himself to protect Charlie and Jeep from Gabriel, but Gabriel catches up with them and tries to kill the baby, but is stopped by Michael who God has resurrected as an Archangel. Apparently Michael's actions have restored God's faith in humanity and he has given Michael a second chance. Michael defeats Gabriel and heads back to Heaven with him, leaving Jeep to protect Charlie and the baby who will grow up to lead humanity out of the darkness of the Apocalypse that has occurred.

Comment:

Don’t watch the movie from the view of religion although it use bible as the background of the movie. The story is more between how human face the angle and the demon.

I can’t said that this is a very good movie but you thinking of going for a movie, may be this can be one of your choice.

SG0002 To start to write….

It is always easy to start a writing for the first few lines, but when i try to further elaborate my writing, i found that my brain suddenly got blank. I found myself so difficult to complete a single essay after i left my secondary school. Thinking back those day in the secondary school, when i sat for the exam, i always able to finish an essay with 300++ words within 40 to 50 minutes. However coming to my age now, i found i don’t even can finish single essay with 100 words within 40 to 50 minutes. Why?

May be I am getting old….

May be I am getting useless….

May be i should read more and think more….

May be ……

Sharing a short story with you all.

Last year, before i came over to Singapore, i accidentally thrown my passport into laundry. My passport was damaged. I sent it to Immigration office. They asked me to write a formal appeal letter so that I can get a new copy of passport as early as possible. Now, the problem come. How am I going to write a formal letter? I forgot the format, the proper way of writing a formal letter. I quickly grab a sample of a formal letter from one of the office beside the Immigration Office. It took me about 4 hours to complete a simple formal letter. It was hard task for me as i have to use proper Malay language to write this letter.  After I finished my letter, i was thinking about my writing skill. For me, this kind of letter when i was in secondary school, i should able finish it within one hour. However it took me more than 4 hours to completed it after i left my secondary school for 12 years.

I think this should be the time, i need to read more and write more to polish my writing skill.

Practice make perfect…..

SG0001 Beginning ….

It is time for me to begin my blogging life. Having to say that, i need to cut short a bit my gym time and my chatting time. I need to reserve sometime for me to do some writing here.

To continuing blogging throughout a year, is not an easy task as i can see I fail to do so during 2009, nevertheless this is a new beginning for me year 2010.

I wish to use this little space to share my life, my experience, my thought with those who read my writing.

This picture I took when I was at the peak of Kota Kinabalu Mountain. I was so excited when i reached the peak. After 7 hours walking a day before and 2 hours from 2:00 a.m in the morning, finally i reached the peak. I still remember when i started to go up to the peak, I nearly want to give up because of the breathing problem. However, I managed to overcome it and reached the peak around 4:45 a.m. Similarly to my blogging journey, I wish i won’t stop at here but i will keep doing it.

但愿能夠在有生命的歲月里，為自己留下一些回憶……

0905 Tauke, Kopi Galas

The first thing I did when I back to Kuala Lumpur was taking Malaysia food. It was Saturday morning; I fetched my sister together with my other friends we went to nearest restaurant having our breakfast. I ordered Hakka noodle and Kopi (Coffee with Milk). When they served the kopi before my Hakka noodle, I quickly tasted it. It was delicious. I almost 2 month times never tasted such delicious Kopi since I left Malaysia to Singapore.

Figure 1: China Town

As told by my Singaporean friends, it is not easy to find nice food in Singapore. A lot of them commented that Malaysia food is nicer than Singapore food. With only 1.40MYR I can get a nice kopi compare with 70sen SGD (1.70 MYR) in Singapore. I use to take kopi in Singapore since I work here. I found that the kopi were not that delicious. It has kopi color, kopi taste but too light. Compare with kopi bo (light coffee) in Malaysia, actually is much tasted nice than Singapore kopi. Maybe I should say a sky juice taste kopi. Anyway, I just took the kopi at China town and Yishun. I haven’t kopi at other place. My colleague, Singaporean who is 70 years old, told me that he love Malaysia coffee. I like coffee. For any country I went, I will taste their coffee. So far, I only found Vietnamese coffee tasted nice.

I was so excited when I took my first kopi in the early morning. I told my friends, I can’t imagine how delicious Malaysia food is. Now only I released that Malaysia actually have a lot of nice and delicious food compare with Singapore. I should share more about the food in Singapore with you in my next post.

P/S: A lot of people still don’t know what is Galas mean….. ha ha ha

0905 Selamat Pagi Malaysia

I reached KL early in the Saturday morning about 2:30 a.m. Home sweet home. This is my first time coming back to KL after working at Singapore for about one and the half month.

Before I left Yishun, I was wonder how jam at Woodlands and Malaysia Checkpoint. For many years, during the festival season, this place will queue out with a lot of people. It may take more than an hour to checkout at this point. Surprisingly, when I arrive at woodland and Malaysia checkpoint, the queue was short and within half an hour, I reached Johor. Together with my friend, we took a bus to my sister house to take my car. Unfortunately the car cannot start at all because it is out of batteries. I replace a new battery and depart from Johor about 11: 30 p.m.

Moving from Johor, I was expecting that there will be some jam at the toll area and Melaka exist as well as Seremban exists. However my prediction seem like wrong. There was no jam at all. It took me about 3 hour to reach KL. After sending my friend to Sri Petaling, I back to my old house. It is so sweet to see old my things here.

My holiday will start on 19 September until 21 September. I am going to meet all my friends in KL. On 21 September, while return to Johor, I will meet some friend at Johor as well. Well, Selamat pagi Malaysia… I miss you ….
