the non-headache inducing blog post

marina bay area is getting all prepped up for the big F1 race in september. so it is surely but surely starting to resemble some hybrid of a construction site and a safari. what with all the box seats and stands being constructed. and the ominous looking cage like structures that will soon line the entire stretch of the F1 track. so be prepared for delays and jams in the area.

watched Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen on saturday. before that we had a fast lunch at BBQ Chicken as our show started at 3.30 pm and we only managed to collect the tickets at 3.
Likewise dinner was a similar rush at Hao Kou Wei as we had wanted to watch the Transformers Animated live show at 7pm when our show had ended at around 6.30. but somehow we managed to do it without getting indigestion. The movie itself was awesome. maybe not as great as the first installment, but still good for what it was supposed to be. the fight scenes were visceral and graphic, not unlike chinese gong fu movies, where scenes are purposely slowed down to accentuate every punch and kick. there was even a villain(ess) reminiscent of the movie Species, amongst other familiar pop culture references. somehow Optimus Prime seemed even more noble in this installment than the first. rating: 4 out of 5.

our mext movie to catch is Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. I wanna catch the 3-D version but agnes is adverse to the extra cost. it opens on 1st July in cinemas. I only wonder why this one was not released earlier to capture the young crowd during the June holidays.

Feisty Char needs bullets to fight!

the matches last night at the Tampines Stadium and the other fund raising activities for little Charmaine has raised about 420 k! only 80 k to go!! but 500 k is only for the treatment, and does not include all the other financial collateral's of Charmaine's road to recovery.

The noisy pipes thingy has been resolved. I took 'urgent leave' on monday to attend to the technician that day. it was a mere issue of a faulty valve that did us in. apparently the persons who installed the heater had overtightened the connector which damaged it, and caused it to make the infernal sound.

the kitchen area ,around the sink especially, is slowly starting to resemble a swamp of sorts. although it is supposed to be rather water resistant, it is already beginning to show signs of falling apart. we already have a mini mushroom farm sprouting behind the sink. the cupboard below was also discovered to have become disengaged from the wall! I had to push it back in place. and the cupboard below is like a mini community of ants, roaches, fungus, algae and all manner of utter grossness.

Agnes has expressed an interest in going back to church.. finally. but so far it has been a no-go, as she cites having to practise her piano for the exams.
sigh.

I hear an A-Team movie is being planned for release in 2010. stars Bradley Cooper, Bruce Willis, Common, Woody Harrelson. should be a good un'.
then there is the mother of all action movies, The Expendables.it's directed by Sylvester Stallone and the cast includes Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Brittany Murphy, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren. rumours were that Steven Seagal, Jean Claude Van Dammne, Wesley Snipes and Kurt Russell were also considered for roles.

did you enjoy Transformers 2?

i did! i thought it was hilarious, specially after the bit where the alien robo-chick made out with him and was lashing her tongue around..

he was screaming like a total pansy!

liked it.

that robo-chick thing is reminiscent of the Species movies, what with the predatorial female and the tail.
