[ OpeN sEasOn ]

I just watched a movie recently with CK on sunday at Toa Payoh Entertainment Centre.. we intended to watch Happy Feet at 7.00pm.. but to MY disappointment.. my daddy was late in coming home.. thus CK went ahead to check out the rest of the movie at a later time.. in the end.. we caught Open Season at 7.45pm.. =)


I LOVE THE SHOW.. another cartoon that is screening in the cinemas now (of course the other one is Happy Feet).. it was hilarious.. but I am still quite keen to catch Happy Feet.. Jam was just telling me the other day that the show is super nice.. n I am a cartroon LOVER.. so I suggested to CK that we could bring Kelly n Junior to watch Happy Feet together.. hm.. tentatively only.. because we dun have the time.. haha..


I got the synopsis from Cathay's webby.. I strongly recommend this movie to those parents who have no idea what to do with their children during the long Dec holidays.. haha.. it will keep the children entertained for at least one and a half hour or so.. pls buy popcorn to bribe the children to remain silent throughout the duration.. wahaha..


The Movie Poster



Synopsis of [Open Season]

In the tranquil mountain town of Timberline, Boog, a grizzly bear with no survival skills, enjoys an idyllic existence. He spends his days as the star of the town's nature show and his nights living a life of luxury in the garage of Park Ranger Beth, who raised him since he was a cub. Every town has a bully and Timberline's is the paranoid uber-hunter, Shaw.


When he drives into town with Elliot, a scrawny, fast-talking wild mule deer strapped to the hood of his truck, Boog is moved by Elliot's pleas for help and against his better judgment, frees him. Elliot follows Boog home, intent on returning the favor by 'freeing' Boog from his garage 'captivity'. He introduces the bear to a world of sweet temptations he has never known. But when the bear's true instincts emerges, events quickly spin out of control.


Right.. hope u wil enjoy the show as much as I did (IF you are gng to watch it, of course!).. cheers.. =)

[ ReTrEat foR mYseLF ]

I am looking forward to my retreat.. since CK & I are not planning to go overseas this holiday season.. we had booked a room at Marina Mandarin Hotel to celebrate Christmas together.. another hotel that I am quite keen to try.. I surfed the net for info on a number of hotels.. but most of them are way over the budget.. the room rates sky rocketed during the festive season.. on the average.. each room costs ard 200 to 300 bucks in the prime zones (eg. Orchard.. Marina area.. Chinatown as well).. others jolly well exceed the 300 dollars for a night stay.. wow ho ho.. =)


We are paying S$230.77 the room ONLY.. of course it is expensive.. but I guess it is worth it.. the room promises a good view.. plus we are checking in ard the christmas season.. that was like one of the cheapest I could get in that area (as compared to Pan Pacific.. M Hotel.. blah blah blah..) the room looks good as well (only on the net.. I have yet to see the room yet.. another 2 weeks to go).. cant really wait.. yeah!


Treat it as a weekend get-away before I go back to work again.. seriously.. I am beginning to miss my kids.. was telling CK the other day abt it.. and he was like saying I kept on telling him that I need a break desperately when I was in school.. n now that I am having my long holidays.. I am saying the reverse.. haha.. WOMEN.. either u get it or u dun.. haha..


I havent been blogging much recently.. not really motivated to do so.. I wonder y.. hee.. doesnt matter I guess.. yup.. I got some photos from the Marina Mandarin's webby.. I pray that what I see is EXACTLY what I am gng to get.. haha.. grins!

[ wOw wOw wOw ]

Just woke up from a LONG sleep.. I fell asleep ard 1am and woke up 12 hrs later.. haha.. I must be super tired.. had a relatively busy schedule this week.. so its time to recharge (thru sleeping).. cheers. =)


Knocked off earlier than usual yesterday (ard 1.30pm).. decided to take a bus to VIVO city for shopping.. I spent a whole afternoon relaxing by myself.. after looking at the VIVO city directory.. I decided to go to Coffee Bean for lunch (honestly.. I miss the egg ben).. praying that there is wireless connection.. so I can surf the net while I park myself comfortably at Coffee Bean.. to my disgust.. I need to pay S$6.00 for half an hour of usage when I logged onto their STARHUB network.. I quickly disconnected.. packed up and left.. bleh!


Felt like taking a fag.. so the only available choice seems to be Coffee Club which has a smoking area.. right.. I didnt exactly enjoy the fag.. who likes fagging under the HOT SUN at 3.00pm? NO ONE.. that includes ME! I ordered a Crepe Mushroom for lunch.. I was starving.. I didnt eat anything the whole day.. and it turned out to be GOOD.. I LOVE IT.. the sauce tastes creamy.. and the mushrooms are my favourites = SHITAKE!! haha.. I gobbled it down before reading my novel for a while.. the heat was really getting to me.. I decided to get the bill and go to surprise my papa at work.. =)


I went to shop for light snacks to bring to his office.. in the end.. I got him the Ya Kun's Kaya Toast (which CK HATES).. the Taiwan 'Ji Pai' from Shin Lin and a cup of Iced Soy Bean Milk from Jolly Bean.. haha.. that is called 'LIGHT SNACKS'.. Papa was so surprised to see me.. hehe.. he was having a conference.. so I waited for him to finish before we can go and join my mama at Chinatown.. he didnt take very long.. abt 15 minutes.. wow.. I must be lucky.. haha.. =)


We went to find my mama and Marlyn at People's Park Complex.. they were apparently shopping for some shampoo and body foam.. all the way downtown just to buy them.. dun we have them at Giant's (IMM).. strange.. but mama insisted that the prices are cheaper here.. I mean dun bother.. unless u stay here.. because the transportation costs will cover the so-called cheaper prices.. although I am not a business student.. I guess I dun need the background knowledge to know this simple theory.. but I was quite amazed to find that the Complex had been given a new look.. I remembered People's Park Complex as an old and run-down building.. but now.. it looks bright and well-ventilated.. plus the boutiques there sell fashionable apparel.. bags.. shoes.. almost equivalent to Bugis Street and if not better (the prices are really cheaper here).. that means another new place to satisfy my crazy shopping needs.. grins!


I sent my family home.. and took a short rest at home before I went to pick up CK at UOB Plaza.. I miss him so much.. muacks!!!


I went to Toa Payoh for dinner last night with CK after work.. we bumped into Phil there.. what a nice coincidence.. we havent really meet up with Phil for quite some time.. so the trio decided to have dinner together.. we strolled over to the 'sui jiao mian' kopi thaim (with the intention of eating my favourite 'sui jiao mian').. and the stall is CLOSED.. what luck.. in the end.. CK and I shared a bowl of meatball soup.. we were both not hungry.. he had taken an ENORMOUS potato pie for afternoon snack while I ate the Taiwan 'Ji Pai' with papa.. catched up with Phil over dinner.. he seems to be doing fine.. and he even bought himself a t-shirt that read 'WHAT I WILL LIKE FOR CHRISTMAS IS 2 GIRLFRIENDS'.. haha.. see.. he is just comfortable being himself.. =)


I didnt have to work on every Fridays.. so here am I.. blogging away.. haha.. was browsing thru the Xiaxue's blog when I came across these photographs taken by Geoff (I rememeber that was how his name is being spelled.. apparently his charges for a day is S$15,000.. no kid ya).. these photographs caught my attention immediately.. I guess I know y is he so popular.. =)


Do you recognise her?

Interesting right?

Milk oozing out like that?



Nothing to do on a boring Friday evening.. I am DATELESS.. haha.. what shall I do??? I know.. do what I am best at it.. EAT N SLEEP!!! wahaha.. have a good weekend.. cheers.. =)
