on this monday....

what's for lunch today???
i had mine at delicious in midvalley megamall. it was so-so only lah. i remember it was better in 1 utama. maybe it is what we ordered.
oreo smoothie and beef bolognese spaghettini
this is mine- fish and chips and lime juice. it was quite filling because the piece of fish is kinda big.

i went to midvalley with the sole purpose of watching the movie ice-kacang puppy love. we (quin and i) reached the cinema counter right at 11.15a.m. and the movie was scheduled to start at 11.15. haha....but we still managed to go in and the movie ticket was only rm7 for early bird. phew!

ok ...want my review of the movie? i was obviously very excited to see ah seng on big screen and his voice was already heard in the first 10 mins of the movie. the movie is a good effort, a commendable one from ah niu but the plot got kinda draggy and boring half-way. there were too many cliches and many scenes were quite predictable. but i like the cast although some were very inexperience and appeared with blank expressions....and that include ah seng too. i guess he got cold feet .... his face was botoxed with nary a line twitching on his face. the eclectic casts got everyone in stitches and many love identifying who's who on the screen. lee sinje was very pretty. gary chaw really stood out in his role. fish leong too. nicholas teo and penny tai do not deserve to have their names printed on the poster because they only came on screen to sell their smiles for few seconds.

the one thing i really love is the cinematography, how the camera angles are put and and how certain scenes are captured so clearly. they can be very good stills.

another thing that stood out in the movie was a BAG!!! haha....can you believe it...that was what caught my attention. it was the red tote lee sinje was carrying in the last scene of the movie....it should be a fiery red bottega. what would i give to have that bag. hahahahah....
ah seng was labelled the first gossiper in the end credits. i waited till his name appeared in the end before leaving the cinema. those gossipers should have more lines kan since they are called gossipers? the scenes where everyone was busy buying numbers reminded me how ironic that situation is if applied to ah seng's real life. well, you will only understand this if you know about ah seng.

oh, another thing i noticed about the movie is....it did not feel 'old' at all although ah niu wanted to portray the past. lee sinje in her bright ultraman tee shirt? not old enough.
but i love the setting. really rustic and quaint. reminds me of tg malim too and my childhood of playing marbles with the boys in my neighbourhood. and yes, like lee sinje in the movie, i also won those marbles!! wakakakaka!!!
i think i will give the movie a 2.5 star out of 5.

today is the first time i left the mall before the sky got dark. there was nothing to look for....so phew! no money spent except on groceries at carrefour.

there were many traffic police on their way to tm on the highway with me. i heard the trunk road all the way to kkb is congested. what an exciting time for these places.

a big poster from bn greets you as you exit tg malim tol plaza....and many more flags from bn and pkr along the road all the way to sg bernam bridge.


this is a video from sg bernam bridge to the junction of my house. check out which party has more flags in this area.

tonight, lim kit siang is coming to give a talk at 7.30p.m. at koo chew association hall. wanna go, but can't. the only reason why i am still here is because of the heavy rain outside.
i know mom, dad, aunt and uncle are all going.

i think bn is having one in the srjk (t)'s field. poor thing....everyone is gonna get wet under the canopy. pkr can score better places to give their talks here.

let's have something to chew before heading back. i am thinking krispy kreme glazed doughnut or wat tan hor....both available in the kitchen now. ;P
