world trade centre! watched it last night, its really sad. kuz all we ever got to see on tv was the towers, imploding into themselves to ground zero, and thats it, plus a long string of bush's messages to the world. but in the movie, you get to see behind the scenes, how you stand in e concourse as a bunch of hardy cops who want to help, then BOOM and the whole building (a massive skyscraper) lands on top of you. and you get stuck for like, 24 hours. TISSUES! :( dunno why some people in e theatre were laughing?! esp e part when will (a hispanic cop partnering mcloughlin) has a vision and sees jesus holding out a water bottle (he's super thirsty) and wants to take it, but doesnt, kuz he knows its a message telling him to hang on there and live for his family and upcoming baby. although there were quite few dry eyes at e end.
& DoA! jo and i finally made proper contact since my birthday last year, and we've finally set for tuesday to go hang out and watch that movie @ orchard probably. i guess its about time, kuz ever since i moved out 3 years ago poomf! we talk a lot less (long distance cmi) so its time to renew a 14-year-old friendship! (yeah since bawling babies building brick barricades) <3 and once again, there's the mgs-nygh thing again. hahahaha am in a good mood!
mom hasnt quite registered the fact that im not 18 yet :) after a veh long (2 hrs actually, but when youve gotta sit on your arse for 3 hours in a hot hall listening to long speeches, well, you know) and tiring grad ceremony, mom was like lets go eat tapas @ swissotel the stamford! yeah, wonderful, i went home to change first and when we got there, she casually pointed out where we were to eat tapas - new asian bar. hey im underage! oO
usher: how old is your daughter?
mom: er, 15!
me: -undertone- certainly not 18
usher: im sorry she cant go into the bar.
mom: im with her whad.
usher: nono im sorry -sheepish grin-
so wound up @ equinox on 70th floor, just one away from NAB (which was having their exclusive spanish dance night) and munched on lamb (sin! this is my second time this month ohnoes) and foie gras (swoon) while listening to the beats from upstairs. whoa hey was quite fun, given that e bar played recently released (give or take 3 months) songs (madonna, justin timberlake's sexy back, snow patrol's chasing cars :)!, bep's my humps, etc) and sometimes, the crowd in there juz joined in with loads of raucous singing. from equinox can see half of spore i bet, only kuz of something called smoky haze, you could only distinctly make out uob's symbol in e distance.
whee philips craig & dean make a very nice singing group! although hillsong united, chris tomlin and red rain are still my personal faves, but am careening towards all singers in general. parachute band concert in about 14 days! (which means 16 to new zealand I HAVENT PACKED!) hoho love worship songs! :)
hahaha time to be judgemental, but honestly, korean is a nicer language than japanese! its more melodious, more smooth flowing, and a tad bit gentler. compare the two languages' word for 'yes' - in japanese, its like 'aso!' (usually pronounced upon entirely, with a pretty loud volume and accompanied with a huge bow) while in korean, its 'yeea' (said softly, with a polite nod of e head) japs are noticeably more enthusiastic & hyper when talking!
english: thank you. korean: kamsa-hamnida. japanese: ARIGATO! lol maybe ive watched too much daejanggeum, where half e time tis janggeum speaking, and well, she's exceptionally demure. but nevermind! still love korean language! meanwhiles am killing the holidays now watching goong on youtube (e episodes i missed) and school rumble (season 2 left to go). HOHOHO just realised - jap vs korea!
stuff like ih proposal and litsem are keeping me on my toes at present. and gosh, there's an entirely undo-able math olympiad practice thing my t-teacher left for me to do, dont plan to do it yet. not till half an hour before she comes, anyways! i think i need gloria's help! =D
