+two movies+

its been quite a while since i ranted at how sucky life went. well the past few days basically i have been meeting up with the army boys and chatted. all they could rant on was about army, army, army. thats gonna be me in 30 days huh. im not ready for it somehow. =[

orchard road was painted red yesterday, the eve of national day. school kids donned in red tees, obviously finished with their school celebration of the national day. the half day in school made these kids very happy, and the only thing they could think of was shopping in town. so these throngs of school kids, most probably in secondary or junior colleges, flock to the place where we call heaven.

the times when everyone crammed the little hall, watching performances put up by the school. skits, speeches, national day songs. i could still remember the day when i was in secondary where one of the national heroes came to our school to tell how hard life was. cant rmb her name. those were the happy carefree days..

two movies caught on sunday and monday respectively.

charlie and the chocolate factory
this show is like another harry porter or lord of the rings, adapting from a book, minus the grandeur, the fighting. add in the fantasies of a boy who loves chocolate so much and wishes he had all the chocolates in the world. i had so much fun watching every single part of it, cuz i read the book a few days before catching this show. every single character was carefully picked for this show. every roald dahl description of the characters were depicted. the house charlie lived in with his grandparents sleeping on either side of the bed, the chocolate room where all the waterfall and green lush stood, the pink boat with tall front and back, the oompa-loompas, augustus, violet, veruca, mike, charlie and most importantly mr wonka. everything was so much like reading a book.

but somehow they altered the story a little bit in the end. i didnt know mr wonka's dad was a dentist. thats how movies are supposed to be, they change bits of pieces here and there to make it somewhat new for movie goers. i have to say johnny depp did such a brillant job in this show. a typical depp movie. his eccentricity, wierdness, uniqueness made him so special for this role. love this show.

the next show i watched with the tpy gang and some of the soccer mates

wedding crashers
this show had the advertisements flashed outside 77th street at far east and heeren since march. this is a must-watch. this movie made me laugh till i cried. with owen wilson and vince vaughn in the show, you can never go wrong making this comedy. like what the title of the show suggested, these two dudes go to weddings, meet new girls and simply put, have lots of fun with them.

one quote from the show, compliments from steph's blog: (hope you dont mind steph =])
I apologize to you if I don't seem real eager to jump into a forced awkward intimate situation that people like to call dating. I don't like the feeling. You're sitting there, you're wondering do I have food on my face, am I eating, am I talking too much, are they talking enough, am I interested I'm not really interested, should I play like I'm interested but I'm not that interested but I think she might be interested but do I want to be interested but now she's not interested? So all of the sudden I'm getting, I'm starting to get interested... And when am I supposed to kiss her? Do I have to wait for the door cause then it's awkward, it's like well goodnight. Do you do like that ass-out hug? Where you like, you hug each other like this and your ass sticks out cause you're trying not to get too close or do you just go right in and kiss them on the lips or don't kiss them at all? It's very difficult trying to read the situation. And all the while you're just really wondering are we gonna get hopped up enough to make some bad decisions? Perhaps play a little game called "just the tip". Just for a second, just to see how it feels. Or, ouch, ouch you're on my hair.

well i haven had such a good laugh since school ended. the joy, company of people who watch this movie with me is greatly treasured. go catch this show and have a fun time!
