Everyone has a plan.... why must it be as per planned?

Watch batman and joker last weekend. Din want to catch it at 1st... but heard a lot of good review about it. I feel that the show is a bit like ang mo version de 无间道, just that its not talking about good and bad guy all the time.

The main topic of the movie is not about how physco is the joker... I think it has a deeper meaning to his character. He said something like this in his lines "Everyone has a plan, I hate it when everyone play by rules" I think he is sick of guessing wats everyone's plan. I think in a corporate world, everyone is guessing wat plan one another had. Everyone is trying to "read" and "analyse" a personal character.. esp those in HR.... trying to "breakdown" each and everyone and trying to "influence" everyone thinking.

Wat the joker does is, he upset the rules... he din want people to guess wat he is up to. He wants to show the world that rules does not apply!.... I like his attitude. Cos I am also sick of guessing everyone plan and the main thing is I hate to think of a plan for myself... why must everyone has a plan. Ok, just as I was typing this, I just overhead someone next to me say "fall back plan". See! its plan again...

Our whole life evolve around plan plan plan, work plan at work, family planning at home... marriage plan, financial plan...

I think sooner or later, we will have more jokers around in the world. Those who are sick of planning.

And batman? He also has plan of his own. If u read deep enough......

 

1st dish by Nick Tan

1 week in Perth, he said he was very busy, day time go school for lesson, evening time go back apartment for "cooking class", nite time drinking till 2am... Indeed very busy loh...

At least his 1 week in Perth taught him some cooking knowledge... he got a house mate who cook really well, its rare nowaday for guy who can cook and handle the meal for about 17 ppl! Nick shown me some pictures they took. Nick said most of the time he is helping his chef housemate and learning some cooking skill from him... Suddenly Nick is so interested in kitchen stuff :P

Presenting Chef Nick...hahahah...
For the very first time Mr. Tan is cooking a proper decent meal :) He say he will cook me my favorite cream sauce spag! This is the result of his 1 week training! Hahah... The sauce is not from those readily made one... The sauce consist of egg, whipping cream, pamesan cheese and milk.
Considering that this is the 1st time he is cooking... this is quite good! He say he wants to learn more dishes! Just hope that its not 3 min interest! :P I m waiting to try the roast chicken!

No Antibiotics

Hate the feeling of falling sick... hate it most when it attack my throat and nose... I have very weak nose. Whenever watever virus I ganna, sure attack the throat and nose. I simply hate it..I hate it!!!

Went to see doc ytd.... to realise that how expensive medical bill can be... My previous coy is use those vista card so I only pay 5 bucks... now diff liao.. new coy dun have vista card... The stupid doc just see me for the sake of seeing.. anyhow see then give 1 lump of medicine... in it include antibiotic... Nick told me not to eat it cos will rely on it de... I also think so... so din took the antibiotic... but its seems like the virus is still hovering ard... sian.... so I keep poping logsenges... but dun seems to cure lei....

Today back to work... but whole body feel like dragging.... stupid virus.

 

Do we allow time to age us? or we allow ourselves to be aged?

We sprang a surprise birthday cake celebration on surin on her bday... I got a spy to check out for me if their super freak boss is ard... Gather all the gals, got a cake, din buy food cos mr super freak is ard... sneak into her office with the help of the spy... she was sleeping... i whisper "sing loud" then she whisper "听到了" kao!!! She cant really act loh.... *blar blar blar....

In any case, glad that surin enjoy the not so surprise de surpise bday surprise... wc got a small cupcake and surin is asking if her diamond ring is inside! Hahaha... the evening was filled with wc sharing with us abt her proposal and how dreamy she still was... hahaha... we went for some ang mo food to end the night.

The following day I saw wat sw post on her blog on "before" and "after"... I realise visually we age a lot.. if put in nicer word is called more "contemporary".... but seriously I could sense that we dun "laugh" as 放 as younger days... we no longer act as "crazy" as before... trying to maintain 仪态? hmmm.. more we become more matured? hmmm.... wc was commenting that nowadays gathering was always gossiping.... I was jokingly saying better then sharing abt "children go which school, and complain abt husbands rite, that is like worse loh... really auntie lei" But come to think of it.... wat do we usually talk of in our younger days????

Scary.... seems like we really move off very far from younger days liao.... trying to recap wat we usually do like 5 yrs back... 5 yrs jiu enough liao... 

Ytd evening I met up with 3 guys from my poly days, kheng hock, qinghai and desmond... I m suspose to be the one organising but... because desmond was the 1st to arrive so he ask wat food the rest of us wanted... at first all say "anything" then after that we all flicker minded, one want this, one wants that... ok liao change mind again... he was jumping mad liao :P... we end up at NYDC... kheng hock came last and from the minute he stepped in, laughter was non stop.... and best was... I still cant figure out how a man 30 都要没得change de 人 how can still be like poly days??? Faint right...super crap, make fun of waiter... best part is I came to realise that the person who really aged is me! I keep reminding them that 4 of us add up over 100 liao... BEHAVE....

The night continue with drinking session and happen to bump into collin and freds. So coincident.... they are talking abt profiling ppl! HR ppl always do that... ok 2 extreme group of freds.... mind stimulating!... Jingyi joined us. As usual, gossiping, dun say man cannot gossip one ok... :P and sharing one another life. hmmm...pin pointing who has the highest man ego... :P the session ended with kheng hock asking if the pub got sell mee poh bo!  

Very hard to imagine that they had not changed much from poly days... and very hard to come to term that over the past 10 yrs... I feel so aged...isit because we keep telling ourselves that we have to "carry" ourself well... less childish stuff... more "corporate"? oh gosh.....

what happen huh? Life experience caused the feeling? or man never grow up and woman always aged too fast?

Dun be surprise if one day I start to do things I enjoy doing like 5 yrs ago.... catch back the youth???

 

tired... moody... sianz

Dun know why.... I just feel very sianz today.... tired... feeling damm sleepy from the minute I get off my bed....

The rest of the day even more sianz..... dun know is it because feeling damm sianz... I totally bo mood to do anything... I just feel like lazing ard... just feel as if I am dragging my body for the hours and minutes to pass.....

Feeling the tension... invisible... maybe its time to do some review and analysis... but I m just feeling so tired that I dun feel like doing anything now...

I just want to hide... I want to hide in my blanket now... :( .... I think I badly need to 发泄!....before I ki siao....

I just feel that bo lang understand what I m going through... maybe I should just dun think and sleep my head off...

 

 

my "lonely" week

Nick flew off to Perth last Sat... I was jokingly telling him that he must be feeling the freedom for 1 week huh.... hahahah... I spend the sunday watch scv drama, wash the car and do some work... Catch the hellboy 1 but din catch the ending... cos Nick call so we chat on the phone while channel 5 is airing the ending...

He bought a calling card and we thought its cheaper to call via the calling card but we are wrong... just realise ytd that it still charge roaming! Hahaha.... he say going to try a new way of calling which is flat rate charges.

I bet he is having a fun time in Perth, cos everytime we talk over the phone can hear a lot of merry making sound behind the scene, every night party...hahahah.... Luckily he got a room mate who can cook really good spread of food... I was still worrying that he will hunger himself in Perth cos he is not really a angmo food eater... He describe to me what his room mate cook... and he is learning his culinary skill too! I told him, its time he cook something for me after his "learning" from this trip! He say he got photos as evidence of wat nice stuff they have! Hahaha.... and suddenly he become damm siao on in jogging... he say everyday after school is jogging cos of the cooling weather... hahaha...cant imagine....

Well, while he is having a good time in Perth, I m having a great catch up with the gals. Monday evening I had dinner at this "si chuan" resturants with surin, wc and sw... damm spicy lor.... everything is "ma ma la la" one...alamak! But shiok lar... hahaha... it was a so call pre-celebration for surin and wc. We had something sweet, ah bo ling for dessert... hahahah...

Last nite Wc had a bday dinner with her steven... Surin and me meet for dinner, we went to this korean bbq at tanjong katong... bo lang de shop... but food is really nice... although on a expensive side, but the food is worth the price... while we are enjoying ourselves, we both got a sms at the same time, surin's first reaction was "Must be wc" hahaha.... and the msg read something like this "hey gals, taken aback..." Surin and me look at each other! proposal! hahaha... we both call wc at the same time... hahaha... then I let surin call, surin was all excited and tell me she is the shelves now... ahahah.... I told surin, we should get wc to buy surin drink... cos surin need to drink herself silly (excuse to rip wc wallet :P )... hahaha ....

Wc call me shortly to ask if we wanna join her for bday cake... we of course dun want to be light bulb loh...hahaha.. she was'nt sound as excited as I expected... I wonder why... surin and myself feel this she must be "geng" loh... happy until siao liao but must act "zai" hmmm... Found out the answer this morning, cos steven really caught her off off guard this time... Wc has spoken to me a few occassion on steven's behaviour towards marriage was simple avoiding the topic... but never did she know, this man really put in a lot of thoughts and effort to ensure things are in "proper order"... eh too much uniform discipline liao loh... hahahah.... But I m really glad to know that steven has this thought... cos wc never appear to be a "organised" gal to me... finally she found her match!!! Hahahah... Great one steven!

This morning wc was sharing with the gals on how smug steven get when he finally accomplished his "mission". I can fully understand that.... cos they belongs to the "uncle", "ah peh" clan loh.... man egotics 100% over burst.... wc, dun worry, u are not alone... I can "chuan shou" u a few stunned to curb man egoistic problem! :P

Wedding bells ringing!!! Hahaha....

 

《赤壁》

We caught this movie on the 1st day it was screen. Nick is a fan of 三国志. We decided to catch it before he goes to Perth on Sat.

We watched the 10pm slot on a Thursday... Before the movie start, I was asleep oreadi...hahah.... I woke up when the movie finally start... I thought I will be sleeping away half the movie... but I was wrong...

The story is not something I am familiar with but the way John Woo directed the movie is quite interesting... such a long winded story he can make it interesting in its way... mid way of the show, it was like introduction to the 3 brothers, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. I like Zhuge Liang the most...hahaha....

This is only part 1 of the battle of Red Cliffs. The most interesting part on burning the battle ships of cao cao is not in this movie. It will be in part 2.

This movie actually triggle my interest to read more abt the story. Found 2 links which are the most comprehensive one...

More stuff on the movie can be found at
