Breaking Dawn News

It's been confirmed!

Breaking Dawn, the last book in the Twilight Saga, is set to be adapted into a movie. At last! Whether it'll be spilt into 2 parts remains to be seen.

Who is the director for this? None other then Bill Condon, Oscars winner and nominee. Frankly, I've never seen movies he directed or screen-played so I can't say much about his style.

But we shouldn't pass judgement too quickly. We jumped on the bandwagon so fast the last time Chris Weitz was to be director for New Moon. There was so much ill-will going on and on and look what happened? Majority of the fans gave positive reviews for New Moon. The same goes for David Slade.

Breaking Dawn is a delicate matter though. There are just so many aspects of it that are potentially problematic and will fail big time if handled wrongly.

Renesmee will be one big problem to overcome and I can't wait to see the end result. Freaky CGI baby, we can all do without, seriously. And then, there's the issue on gore, blood, love and imprinting...

It's obvious that Breaking Dawn movie will not pass the PG-13 rating because of several issues, particularly Stephenie Meyer's.

Another wonderful news is that Stephenie Meyer will be joining on board the team as a producer! Wow, congrats! With the author herself on the team, fans can be more assured that her vision will be brought to life in the silver screen.

Indeed, the news about Stephenie Meyer joining in the producing of the film get more comments than the announcement of the latest director, which is kind of weird because based on my experience on the site, fans alike like to comment (good or bad) on directors or scriptwriters.

Woah, I can't wait! This is very exciting!

Of Internship

So, this is the second week of Semester 3.1.

Nothing much to say about it actually. Go to school, come back. Essentially, wash, lather, rise, repeat.

Oh right, the lecturers. Speaking about them makes me missed the lecturers of old. Seriously, this semester we just had to have the luck of getting lecturers/tutors who are strict, stern and old. Did I mention it? Sigh, what happen to jokes and lightness during classes?

Lecturers are mundane and make me sleepy. I have thought that I am cured by now.

Student Internship Programme is one big heartache and headache. It was understood that the best deal is to self-secure a posting on your own as you are in control. I guess given the connections I have, it's a no deal for me.

Besides, it's really a chore to do self-secure. Yes, yes, I really like the idea of doing a job I like for 11 weeks. But, there is always a "but".

What bothers me isn't the potential crappy post I can get from the school-posting system, that I can still grit my teeth and bear it. What bothers me is the allowance given during the stint. Obviously, when you self-secure, you can negotiate about the allowance and can find a post with a higher pay. On the other hand, when the school secure a post for you, you will have to deal with the lesser allowance.

Gahhhhh! I really need the money! Just imagine, if I have a pay of $700 for one month, that will be $2,100 in total. If not, I could end up with just $400 plus a month. The difference, is just so darn big!

With the extra cash, I can buy so much more stuff. Oh, the thought is almost too unbearable to think.

How I wish that someone in the family is working in some company that will allow me to do temporary work. If only, huh?

Think I'll just go with the flow. I think I can get through the stint pretty well. If I get some crappy post, I'll blame it on my luck then.

Of Clocks & Trailers

Hurrah for me! My countdown clock is finally up!

After much trials, over the weekend, I finally had it up due to sheer luck. There is still something wrong with the sharing of the html code. But, when I was browsing other widgets, I found this one whose code is still intact. I did my own customisation and voila! My countdown clock for Eclipse is out!

I may be changing the picture when I have the time. As much as I like this picture, I don't think the colour theme suits the overall feel for Eclipse the movie. It's way darker than what I have.

And it's just in time to commemorate the showing of Eclipse movie final trailer, which is way awesome!

It's all action in this trailer as compare to the romance in the first. The CGI and special effects are looking real good in the trailer. I love it! All things aside, the 2 minute plus trailer is sufficient for my thirst.

I can't wait to see David Slade's vision of Eclipse! Only hoping that it won't be that creepy, what with all the newborns rising from the waters like zombies.

Get this widget!

Blast of a Year

Holy Crow! I'm literally flirting with deadlines here.

It's only the second day and I'm feeling the pressure and stress that is in association with Year 3. "You are no longer in Year 2", to quote the lecturers. Well, obviously. But they expect greater things from us this time round.

If I thought Sem 2.2 was tough, honestly speaking, it seems like child play. Really. Looking back, I realised those were so much easier than what we are doing now.

2010 will pass soon enough. The tentative timetable is like this.

By July, we'll finish all projects. August will see us a one month study break/holiday due to the Youth Olympics Games. Thank goodness! First 2 weeks of September will be exams, then comes the Internship/attachment for 3 months. Around December, which will be well into Semester 3.2, the internship will end. Back to school for a couple of more subjects, then it's time to graduate.

This means that by February 2011(if I'm not wrong), everything will come to a close. Around April/May 2011, there will be a graduation ceremony, as it's happening now. Wow, to think that next year will be us. I'm going, of course. I wouldn't miss it for the world.

So, it's either I leave for my trip before or after the graduation ceremony.

Oh my god! This is insane! What a tight schedule to operate on! I don't think I can get myself into the mood of enjoying even my brithday.

The months and days will blend together so much so that I'll work myself up in a frenzy. As seen from the tentative dates above, technically, I'll have no holidays. So, it's just my luck that YOG is here this year and we get to have a break!

Fortunately, among this mess, there will still be simple pleasures in life. There are movie events, books release coming up that I can treat myself myself.

As for work, we'll see how that goes. I'm toeing a fine line by working and studying at the same time in such a crucial year. Where my priorities lie, of that I'm certain. Still, it'll be good if I can have cash by my side. God knows I need money for my coveted trip.

Tuesdays are going to be a bomb. I'll be leaving home early in the morning (7am) and only be back at (10pm plus). What a joke! Stupid arrangements.

I can still take it this couple of weeks, once the semester really starts, I'll have to decline any other work on other days.

This year is going to be blast. This year is the year where limits will be pushed and tested, where emotions will run high. All in all, I must get ready for an emotional rollar-coaster ride of a lifetime.

If I lose my sanity behind... prayers will be needed...

Le Premier Jour

"When Life gives you lemons, throw them back and demand something else"

-
First day in school as a senior. Officially.
-
Wow, it was a torture waking at 5.30am after a nearly 2 months hiatus. Naturally, buses were full of people but the bus I took had vacant seats.
-
When I reached school, the front area near Engineering School had lots of people milling around. I bet most of them were first year students waiting for friends. It's quite funny though.
-
Like my friend said, freshmen usually tend to stick around as a class for the first one month or so, and then they will start to spilt into their various groups and cliques.
-
For us, we have "been there, done that". I'm quite desensitized.
-
The situation in the canteens and buses are going to be bad for the first few weeks. There will be lots of students, all eager to make it. After the original first few weeks, attendance will drop and canteens will have vacant seats again. Not that I like canteen food.
-
So, first day lecture was Event Management. I just found out that the month of August will be a holiday (study weeks) for us. It is due to the high participant rate in the Youth Olympics Games and the fact that the few week of September will be the examinations.
-
Yay! All the more for me. I can treat it as a minor holiday before the day of reckoning.
-
However, rather than cutting study materials short, I guess they squeeze all the syllabus before August. The deadlines for projects are certainly so. Oh boy, projects here and there. Have to start early.
-
Well, that's that. Nothing to talk about actually. I'm glad to see my friends. One last year before everything changes. The debacle on JCs, Polys and Universities is making me very nervous and anxious. It's certainly a reality check for me.
-
I know that going to University from a Poly route isn't going to be easy, but never have I thought it will be so tedious and difficult. I used to think that as long as I get good results, I can stand a fairly good chance of making it. Now? Not so much.
-
I never think of stopping with a Diploma only from Day One. In my opinion, that's really not a choice if I want what I want. Each of us have different thinking, it's how you work it out that matters.
-
In the past, I harbour thoughts and plans to go to an overseas University. I still do so, but I guess my dreams are going to crash. Going overseas is and still is my first choice for studies. If I can't make it this time round, there is always higher education like Masters. Then, I'll go overseas.
-
At least, I have one year to work things out in my favour. I just need the strength and will-power to do that. If I am not changing now, when will I do so?
-
Things aren't looking too good now. Life isn't a bed of roses, I know that. I just never thought that it will be a bed of steel needles. Sighs.
-
Having work on Tuesdays and Fridays. Double Sigh.

-

The End is Near

"The end is near"

Just over a day left for me. Then, it will be another year, another nerve-rending year. Darn you.

Only this time, it'll be different. There won't be another long holiday for me. I will literally become 'holiday-less' since there will be an internship soon.

I can see that I'll have a terribly "good" time this time round.

The train is leaving the platform, last call before all gates are shut. Will I be left chasing after the train or will I be sitting comfortably in the first-class cabin? Will I be a passenger or a worker or the driver? Will I be left behind in the last cabin or will I be in the first? Will the train take me to the place I want to go or will I be lost? Will the journey be smooth or be rattling?

So many may-bes and will-bes. Sighs. When did I become so melodramatic?

I can't let go of the past. Why?

It's not that I'm pessimistic. It's just reluctance to let go of good times.

Of Treasures & End

Today was quite the eventful day for me.

For one, I finally cleared and spiffed up my cupboards since years. It's on my to-do list this holidays, I just never got about doing it. Well, on this beautiful, last day as a free person, I did it.

I will give myself a pat on the back for a job well-done. I had this big bag full of papers and what not to throw away. In the midst of clearing, I discovered treasures from the past.

Can you imagine having diskettes still? Those should belong to a Museum of technology. Lots of mouse pads too.

I had uncovered diary entries that made me laugh in horror. Boy, was my spelling atrocious back then. It isn't exactly better now but all thanks to spell-check, I can ensure that what I wrote is proof-read.

Anyway, I can't bear to throw all my memories away. I just ripped off some of the notes that I did way back when I was in Primary School.

I had collected many news articles over the years. Those I can't bear to see them gone. Each and every one is important to me. Why else would I cut them out in the first place? Lots of Harry Potter related articles, posh cars advertisements that caught my eye, etc.

I did throw out those movie reviews I thought was bad taste. Pheesh, what I want are facts and news coverage, not some critical reviews which has absolutely nothing to do with what I like. If they don't like it, fine, I don't have to read what they have to say.

I vacuumed and wiped my tables.

I still didn't managed to spiff up everything. But the remaining potions will have to wait. Holidays are a-ending and I'll extremely not free.

Well, well, I am proud of myself having accomplished what I set out to do.

Besides cleaning, I arranged for a pedicure and haircut session as well. A new start for a new semester.

I tried something new this time. I went for a dark blue colour for my toes. It's pretty bold for me to choose this colour because I usually stick with pinks.

Alas, the polish was not completely dried and I hit my foot against the pedestal in the hair salon. Gone was my nicely painted toes. I really, really hated it...

Luckily, it was my toes instead of my fingernails.

Today was extremely wonderful as I don't have work! This is the crucial event that led to my arrangements.

The end is near.

Craptastic

Edited: Ok, after thinking it over and discussing it, I can accept the timetable for what it is. (I have to accept it, don't I? It's not as if I can change it.)

Darn it!

What a crappy timetable, at least in my opinion.

Waiting for the timetable is just as nerve-recking as wating for results. But, at least, for results, it's much more predictable and I can control it. Whereas for timetables, they're like lottery, you never know when you'll strike big time.

For 3 times a week, I have classes at 9am which means I have to wake up at 5.30am. Bloody Brilliant. On the other hand, I get to go home early on most days, except Wednesdays, classes till 6.00pm.

Thursdays and Fridays will be ending as early as 1.00pm, which makes it possible to go for work. Whoopidoo.

I'm going only for 2 days a week. So, it's either Thursdays, Fridays or Saturdays. I rather I be free on Saturdays actually. Or alternate days will be better as well. Damnation, I won't be coerce into making stupid decisions.

That teacher, again. I should have known. We must keep up our standards now.

Oh no, the very thing I wished for didn't come true! Why?! The teacher I wanted for Managerial Accounting 1 is nil. Noooo! Well, he's off teaching his Business Finance classes.

I could live with that, I suppose. With time, I could even learn to love it.

Taking Off & Timetable

Alright! Timetable for Semester 3.1 will be out by tomorrow 10.00am.
-
I'm keeping my fingers crossed and praying that I'll get a brilliant one. What I want is good distribution of the subjects (going home early) and good lecturers/tutors. Please, please, please... -
If there really is a need to choose between the two, I will go for the latter. Please, I need someone real good and approachable for Managerial Accounting 1. Actually, I have a teacher in mind, let's just see if I have the good fortune to get him. I really want to get him...
-
Well, I need some time off to go for work too. Can't believe I'm saying this huh? Shrugs. I need cash for my big plans.
-
So, the ball is not in my court anymore. If tomorrow timetable proves to be great, the tentative title for it shall be "C'est bon". If not, then it shall be be "Craptastic".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Friday, 9th April, after work, the family went to Changi Airport to bid adieu to my cousin who was going to Taiwan for his army stint.
-
Wow, the meeting place was filled with army boys and their loved ones. I heard that they will be having an SQ plane all by themselves.
-
Their flight left at dawn.
-
Before that, we went to McDonald's for supper. As we finished ordering and standing by the side to get our trays, someone spilled his hot beverages, all over us. The 3 of us, my cousin, brother and I, got scalded on the legs.
-
At first, it was shocked. I thought that my brother was the one who spilled them. Turned out to be another guy. My brain didn't register the hotness at first. Actually, looking back, it didn't feel that scalding.
-
But, there was tendrils of smoke wafting from the spilled drinks on the floor.
-
Anyway, had our supper and we went to the meeting area. I bet the tourists must be wondering what was going on. It's almost midnight and there was this large group of people hanging about.
-
In the end, we left just after midnight since I needed to wake up early the next morning.
-

Not in Kansas

"Dorothy, you aren't in Kansas anymore"

-

How true. It's my new favourite quote. It is versatile and can be applied to any circumstances. I think the meaning behind this quote is "wake up, darling, not everything is what it seems. The things you know of are changing and you have to move on."

-

It's most certainly a love/hate relationship between me and education in general. I love to hate it, ranging from studies to going to school to homework etc. At the same time, I hate to feel affection for it. As I just couldn't do without it, can't I?

-

Ever since Primary school, it has been repetitive. Holidays end, and I will lament over it. A school year ends, I too lament.

-

Sighs, now I'm in Poly, you would have thought that I've wise up. If there is something that still remains, it's this.

-

I can't believe I spend my time writing all these instead of posting what I already planned to post. There are a couple of pre-written drafts on topics I've been wanting to post. Yet, these words just flowed and flowed, especially at night.

-

One another note, nothing like a look at other blogs and my own entries of the past to get a new perspective of stuff.

-

I'm guilty of reading people's blogs, sometimes. It changes my view on things and allows me to reflect.

-

I even read my past entries and cringe. Memories best remain as memories. Looking back, I wondered how I weathered through. A human is stronger than I expected.

-

Well, well, this blog has exist for a long time, since I picked up the courage to start it. It exists mainly for my pleasure and an outlet to write and keep in touch with English. God knows I need it.

-

Yes, over the months, I included slang and what not into my posts, but that's for certain. I live and breathe fanfiction for years. Generally, I hang out at fanfiction site and read those authors' stories.

-

Alright, enough already, I should think.

-

D for Denial

Denial with the capital letter D.

On the other hand, how can I be in denial when the facts are 'in my face'? I hardly doubt it's called denial at this stage. Sure, I am reluctant to let go and face the future, but I can't change facts, can I?

One last week of utter freedom and being a person with no heavy responsibilities. Time is passing as I typed. It's like after being let out for good behaviour, now, I'm back to the dungeons.

I've so much to do before school starts.

Slipping Through My Fingers

"Slipping through my fingers all the time, I try to capture every minute, the feeling in it"
.
"I felt like someone had kicked my legs out from under me ... I was out of time. And I wasn’t ready."

.

"Time passes, even for me"

All the days seem to have speed by without me. Looking back, I wonder at what I've been doing all these days.

You know it's time to start school when I starts to reminiscence about the good, ole days that is the holidays. Seriously, I can't seem to get ready for school.

Going back is like preparing for another battle. I can almost smell the need for victory, again. Of course, there is only a way forward and that is the only path to take. No cross-roads here. There is to be only one end. And that is for me to emerge as the victor.

I really, really don't want the time to pass so quickly. Yes, I have been granted almost 2 months of holidays, more so than many others. But, it seems as if I have not done many things constructive, huh.

I am like a jellyfish. Floating around all day and night. I go where pleases me. I can do what I like, when I like. I don't have to care about people judging me and pointing fingers. If I want to sleep the day away, I will because I can.

I literally hold time in my hands.

However, there is a sinister underplot, as I am controlling my time, time is controlling me as well. I'm standing on a ticking time-bomb. Sooner or later, the bomb will burst and I have to go back to reality.

Fantasy is good while it lasts.

I went back to read my previous posts, it seems as if it was still the first day of the holidays. Really. The days did speed past. I was still on the platform but the train has already left the station, with everything on it.

I live in the past, I must admit. I live for the future too. As for the present? I try my hardest to live for the moment.

Typing all these makes me think that there is something whacked about myself. Normally, I aren't this sort of person. Ahhh, who am I kidding? I'm always this sort. I like to overanalyse things, make myself all strung-up over tiny matters, lose sleep over them and start over again the next day.

There are only a few days in the year where this does not strike.

Lots of thoughts jumbled in my mind. I'll try my hardest to write them out.

Oh right. I might as well write this together with this post.

Working in a "tuition" centre, I realised that being the kids of today are quite pitiful actually. Myself included, I guess. But, they still have a long, long way to go.

As I get older, thoughts like these start to plague me. Higher education, career, money-matters, etc.

I wonder if I have the goods to make it in this world. I wonder if I'm good enough to survive in the corporate world. I wonder if I can get a good job and stay with it. I wonder whether I can fulfil my goals and dreams.

I guess we all have a hand in molding the future we want. But, life, there is just so much we can't control. Life is full of surprises and shocks, ups and downs. One day, you are top of the world, the next, you are nothing.

I just have an epiphany. Life is the greatest when you are young.

This is a short teaser, no doubt a grave one, leading to my 19th birthday. It's almost fore-boding...

In Which We Talk of Books

If there is one thing I can't live without, it would be books. And chocolates and Internet and laptop and ice-cream...

Anyway, back to the main topic, which the title already displayed clearly.

Hooray for the industry! Not so much for my pocket. There are a couple of new novels coming out and I'm getting them! What else is new?


First of, surprise, surprise from Stephenie Meyer!

She is releasing a new novella titled "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner". After a year or more hiatus, it's awesome she is releasing this. Although, this novella was written before Twilight was published. It is originally meant for the Twilight Guide but it's too long to be included, so, now it's a stand-alone.

I love the cover! Its matching cover with the rest of the Twilight saga books means that it is meant to be a collectible. I can't wait to read the darker side of the Twilight vampire universe. All we ever read was the good side and sometimes, the other side. This story does not have a happy ending, that I can say as much.

Some fans are not too happy about this piece of news. They wanted Midnight Sun. Me? I'm thrilled with whatever Stephenie gives. Of course, who doesn't want Midnight Sun? However, she is in no obligation to owe fans anything. I think some mistook that fact.


This is also Twilight-related. It's a graphic novel. There is two volumes to it and what I'm most thrill about is that I can finally see how the characters look like. Really. Non of that movie-'nonsense'. No Robert Pattinson look-a-like here.

It's here in Singapore but unfortunately, it's so expensive! I don't understand why. Amazon and Borders USA are selling it at US$11+, in Singapore, a freaking S$36+. Do the conversion and you will see that the bookstore is extorting us. Urgh. I now wonder if I should ask my friend to help me get it instead.

Last but the the least, the novel on my book watchlist, One Enchanted Evening by Lynn Kurland.

-

Yay! I've been waiting for this for a long time. At first, it was to be Isabella's story. Now, apparently, it's Montgomery's. It's great though. He is one of my favourite characters in the De Piaget family.

-

I can't wait till he met his 'fairy'! Love the book cover, it's of Sedgewick castle, the place where they met. It will be out on April 27th. I'll give it a few days to reach Singapore's shores and off to Kinokuniya!

-

I sincerely hope the novel will be there. I'm going to get so angry and upset if there isn't.

-

During the period of obsession with Kurland's novels, what I can find in the library database, I reserved and booked them with a small fee. I spent a not-so-small amount buying the others, even flying them in from overseas (without extra charges).

-

All in all, I'm pretty pleased with myself. I managed to read most of her novels, except one or two.

-

This is the novel not to be missed. Lynn Kurland is publishing a novel each year, at least that's her plans. I like people who have plans and stick to them.

-
Actually, all these new books here are not to be missed. Alas for my funds then. Although, what's a little money in exchange for happiness and fantasies?

How To Train Your Dragon movie review

Ahhhhhh! I just love, love How to Train Your Dragon!

-

It's a heartwarming and touching tale about the friendship of a boy (Hiccup) and a dragon (Toothless). With a side tale of acceptance from one's family and friends and a coming-of-age story. Dreamworks really outdone themselves this time round with this wonderful tale.

-

The animations are done beautifully and the flying scenes are exceptionally well-done. It may remind viewers of the scenes in Avatar. The Vikings and dragons are drawn and portray in such gorgeous tones! The cinematography here is just Wow.

-

The soundtrack is especially amazing! It incorporates the use of bagpipes and drums and has a Celtic charm to it. Kudos to John Powell!

-
I may be parroting what reviews have said about the movie but the fact is that this movie is great for everyone. So what if the theater is full of children, I'm almost an adult and love the film. I'm sure many people who have watch the movie feel the same.

-

What's too bad is that I didn't manage to watch it in 3D. Oh my! I can't help but keep harping on it. Viewers has already said again and again that the 3D experience makes it more worthwhile. I don't doubt it because without 3D, the movie is already wonderful. There is no chance of me watching it in 3D.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Good Friday, my family decided to watch How to Train your Dragon at Marina Square. It's just too bad that there's no timing for the 3D version. My brother had tuition in the morning until 10.30am and the 3D was at 10.45am.

-

I ended up booking the 11.50am show. Since it is a animated movie, the theater saw many young children with their parents. I don't see anything wrong with going to a movie whose main audiences are young children. I thoroughly enjoy myself.

-

The storyline is deep. The characters are believable. The scenes are beautiful. The soundtrack is amazing. What's there not to like?

-

My cousin's family was too at Marina, watching Clash of the Titans 3D.

-

I figured out the reason behind the no show of How to Train your Dragon in 3D despite it opening only a week in Singapore. First, it should be the lack of 3D glasses available. Second, perhaps the screens?

-

Clash of the Titans just opened on Thursday, it's a no-brainer that the 3D slots will be reserved for it.

-

Originally, we wanted to book a bowling alley at 4pm, after they came out from their movie. But, the bowling place do not allow specific timing booking. It's on a first come first serve basis. So, in the end, we didn't play.

-

Went to Somerset @ 313. Finally, I had my MaggieMoo ice-cream! It's been so long since I wanted to try it. It's pretty nice but the portion is quite big. The others ate at SuperDog.

-

After much deciding on the place for dinner, we didn't came up with anything that justified. Therefore, we parted our ways.

-

What a non-climax way to end our day.

-

What I did not regret was watching How to Train Your Dragon. I'm so going to get it on DVD! Now, if only there's a way to watch in 3D...

April Fools 2010

"Gleeky Cauldron"

Twilight Lexicon

Mugglenet

The day when Google was turned into Topeka, Leaky Cauldron turned into Gleeky Cauldron that supports the Glee Club.
-
The day when Twilight Lexicon was closed as the families had enough.
-
The day when Deathly Hallows was announced to be turned into a trilogy with Part 3 coming in 2013, J. K. Rowling decides to write about Elvendork (more popular than Harry Potter), Harry Potter books latest change of covers and new titles, Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme Park to expand in 3 area on Mugglenet.
-
What day was it? Fred and George’s birthday, of course!
-
Early in the morning on April 1st (GMT +8), I was on the prowl for April Fools jokes around the net. I wondered what Mugglenet and Twilight Lexicon had in store for us this year.
-
In the afternoon, there was a sign on Twilight Lexicon, Closed until Further Notice. That didn’t got me. I was prepared for anything they dished out. But great job, girls! A few people got tricked, I think. I always enjoyed the jokes on the Lex. Last year’s was fun as well as when the humans took over the Lex.
-
When I got home from work at night, I checked out Mugglenet for pranks. Immediately, I saw a post saying that J. K. Rowling is planning on writing a pre-prequel, on a character called Elvendork. It was said that it will more popular than Harry Potter. In my mind, I was thinking, “Cool, great.” And moved further down.
-
This news got me. Deathly Hallows to be turned into a trilogy?! With the last part out in 2013?! I was like “What the Holy is this?” I saw the number of comments on it and I thought that surely many fans will be outraged at Warner Brothers. Saw a couple of posts, and realised I was fooled.
-
I have to admit that was great! The “fan-gasm” and “picked up his Looney Tunes commemorative pen, and started pretending to throw Avada Kedavra spells at other studio's headquarters” didn’t register in my head for a second.
-
What made it more fun was the reactions that people had over the web. Oh my goodness, those reactions were hilarious and classic! Over at Facebook, people were so angry over the news! -
Mugglenet’s approach is smoother and sneakier. To think I was actually looking for pranks and I got pranked myself. Instead of changing the whole fansite, they put the jokes in the daily news.
-
The latest pranks included Harry Potter books having new covers and new titles and Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park expansions.
-
Goodness, I love the new titles and covers for Harry Potter! Harry Potter and the Super Cool Stone, who wouldn’t want that? The covers had me cracking up!
-
Wow, I enjoyed myself very much this year! Can't wait for next year's!

That's why I love the web and the world. Without it, can I imagine passing my time in my boring, old country? No, I doubt so. The sites are where I get my first-hand information on what is going on. I rely on them for entertainment and news coverage so much so that I can't leave them.

Once again, Happy Birthday Fred and George! Although, R.I.P Fred. Happy April Fools 2010!

The Estuary @ Yishun

Went to The Estuary showflat on Sunday. It's not that we're thinking of buying a unit, but just for fun and to satisfy our curiosity. We have been wanting to go for ages, but can't find the time to do it.

-

There wasn't many people in the showflat and we were thinking that all those agents will be targeting on us. It's really not a nice experience when you are not a serious buyer. Anyway, my father seems to have fun, playing the role of a potential buyer while my brother and I were snickering behind.

-

Wow, is the model grand! I'm always in love with those extremely detailed models on housing and what not. The street lights and miniature cars even have lights on! The function rooms have these cute chairs and tables and gym has these equipment made out from paper.

-

Oooo, I can gushed about them all day. I once watched a show where they show all those professionals working on one of these models project.

-

Even if we harbour the thought of buying a unit in a private condominium, there's no chance of us buying one here because most of the units are already sold. God, are these people rich or what? One 3-room unit costs at least S$1,000,000.

-

My father told the agent we are looking for a 4-room unit, but those are already sold. All that's left are some 2-room units and a couple of low level 3-room units. My father can breath a sigh of relief as he can don't need to act. For a condo whose selling point is on the magnificent view of the lower Seletar Reservoir, the low level units would not be a hit.

-

I enjoy going to showflats as the designs and furnishings are inspiring. I just love the feel. If we could buy and live in the showflat, now that would be great. I know there are people out there who treat viewing showflats as a hobby.

-

The rooms are small actually, but that is nothing new in the industry nowadays. Prices going up, while floor area is going down. Well, it's during these moments that I am glad that we have our house.

-

It's great fun, indeed. Harmless fun, but we don't think of getting one.
