Da Vinci Code in Shaw Balestier

Wednesday, May 24, 2006

We wanted to watch Da Vinci Code last nite. Wanted to watch it in the new Cathay cinema.
But there were no more tickets for the 7pm slot.
GV also sold out.
what to do?
We settled for Shaw Balestier. Not our first time there though.

da vinci code
Recently, Dan Brown added another character into the book, didn't u hear abt that??? :p
hee hee..

Aniwae, while we were happily seated in our seats, the advertisements and trailers started to come on screen.
The show was supposed to start at 8.30pm.
Then there was this 'duk duk duk duk duk duk' sound all the time on the sound system for all the adverts.
Initially, we thought this might be some short term problem.
I said 'hopefully when the show starts, the problem also goes away....'

My goodness, when Tom Hanks opens his mouth, nobody could figure out what he is talking abt!
soon, many pple were walking out of the theatre. i assume they were making a complain.

Then, a man came in, wave his hands on the air, and say 'can all of u move to theatre 6, take back ur own seats.?'

well done.

We go lor. it was 9pm alrd.

Theatre 5 had Da Vinci Code playing halfway. When we enter the theatre, the person in charge turn on all the lights (like police comes for inspection like dat) and stop the movie. Then they play star wars theme song.*aiyo*

star wars theme
while waiting for the movie to come online....


We thought they would rewind the movie to the start of the show. But then they were playing all the way from the beginning!!! like from the first advert!!!! *faint*
We watched silent hill trailer twice lor.

by the time, da vinci code comes on, it is 9.25pm alrd.

aniwae.

its a nice show for me who have not read the book.

We had a meeting with diana to punggol, (she is my desired ID for now.)
and she's trying to show me a house she has done.
well done.
We liked the house.
the design, layout and the materials.
and the paint job was good.

We then brought her to our actual coris site, since we still had time.
The whole thing was really farnie.
She pretended to be my sister when we were brought up to a showflat by one of the ah peh contractors downstairs.
and the whole visit was

'zeh, this wan quite nice hor, can do.'
'eh, girl, u like this wan rite, can ask Mr Goh (the contractor) to do one for u also...?'

Meet the Pple session



We went to meet the Minister of our constituency on friday nite for some requests.
There were many volunteers doing crowd control, writing of letters, giving out queue numbers, and doing the first filtering.
We were there at 6pm to get a queue number, and already, we were given a queue of 30plus.
no difference from seeing doctor Ho.
Aniwae, it wasn't a really long wait la.

When we went in for the interview with the minister,
honestly, i was quite surprise with the amount of pple inside the room with him.
There were 3 persons next to him, taking down notes, well, they look like they are trying to learn and pickup some skills.
Then there were like 4 ladies seated in front of some computers, typing letters to the relevant authority, and these are done like immediately after the ministers meet the pple. Highly efficient.
Then there were abt another 4 person in the room to usher the pple in and out.

Either these pple are too kind, or they are too free..... :)
I jus put it that they are kind la.

but come to think of it....
this meet the pple session is somewhat comparable to pple queuing up to meet the god isn't it?
those chinese tiao-dung kind of session?
haha.....
u also go there to request for something? donch u? haha....
jus something that comes to my mind during my wait there....

haha....

A mission that i dun wan to turn down

Thursday, May 18, 2006

I was happily leaving my office for boxercise last evening, and i called livingstone for a short chat.

"mmmm....when are u free for a date with me huh?"
"for what?" i asked.
"err.....watched movie la"
"errrrr......watch wat movie huh?"
"MI:3..."

oooooh, can can. MI:3 can.
hee hee...
once in a while i have to follow livingstone's wish la.
wait he say my gym is more impt than him, then i can forget abt extending my membership.
wahaha.....

then he got another request.
"I only want to watch MI:3 digital...."
and what time is that slot?
7.35pm!

aiyo.....worse then gym lor....cannot relak...must rush home and quickly get my free ticket redemption coupon.
when we reached cathay cineleisure, it was alrd 7.15pm.
lucky still got good seats. phew!

i don want to have late dinner.
so we smuggle burger king into the theatre. heh heh

as we were happily muching our fries and burger away, the show started...
and our mouth stopped.
U see, it was very challenging to have our heart in our throat when tom cruise want to die but haven die.
how to swallow our burger u tell me?
and so our usual mushroom swiss burger turn out to be tasteless lor.

But the show is fantastic!
worth my sacrifice of boxcercise.

The old polyclinic i use to go....

Monday, May 15, 2006

i remember when i was very young,
i would have to visit this polyclinic for immunisation.
for flu, for cough, for fever.....etc...

the impression and memory i had over the clinic, surprisingly, did not change much physically.
I was there this morning, and the childhood memories came flowing back naturally....
the clinic
the usual wait, the usual sound system, the old queue display system,
even the old nurses...
my mom recognised the nurse that took our files when we go for our immunisation!!!
haha....

i heard the govt is going to demolish this polyclinic soon.
hmm....there goes the history for me agn...

then, my mom pointed out an interesting sight.
room 14

haha, many pple must have missed this room 14!!!

since i took leave today,
i went shopping with mommy.
and had lunch at food republic.
man, i like this fried prawn noodle man!!

tai hong

beverage at the toast box.

Mother's Day Dinner at home



ryan and my sista were at Bangkok for mother's day,
so we decided to have home cook food !
yummy, i LOVE home cook food!!
but, my poor mom had aged, and she no longer has the stamina to juggle between looking after ryan and preparing dinner for us in the evenings.
so most of the time, we eat out.

aniwae, once in a while, i will still pester her for some yummy soup...
pork ribs soup
i can jus have 1 bowl, oh. no, to be exact, it is 1+1+1 bowl of such pork rib soup,

be it carrot, or sze chuan vege, or even sweet corn, or lotus root, whatever la...
as long as its this kind of pork rib soup, prepared by my mom,
jus top it up with a bowl of rice......i can feed myself nice and full.
no need other dishes....heh heh

Mom prepared vege too.
but she didnt wan to fry, so we had it steam.
healthy choice.
