alritey, back frm an outing wif bren, 3rd time meeting him in 7 days! haha! well, caught "Terminator Salvation at GV PS. The starting was abit slow i felt, almost fall asleep! but as it got to the middle, started to get abit more interesting, i tot it cud haf been the lack of memorable scenes and gd & solid bg music bah? any other theories on that, ppl? special effects were cool and all, but wat realli caught me as the highlight of the show was the struggle of the cyborg character, torn between his human mind and robot body.. christian bale as john conor did bring some "glam" into the show, but i feel the whole thing reminds me alot of a movie acted by tom cruise awhile back, the "minority report".. the highlight of the show came wif Arnie's brief comeback as the T800, realli cool-ish! good show for e fan boys, or if u can withstand the starting 15-30mins or so of plot..
Shopped at sim lim aft the show and got meself a new philips earpiece wif mike for the com! haha.. wanna find someplace to test test leh...

well well, today was all abt slacking off and completing 1/2 of my supernatural season 4! went out wif bren ytd to tamp and visited the much publicised tamp 1 mall, which wasnt much bah, if u ask me.. the uniqlo store is oso kena normal, like a upsized giordano, wif higher prices.. tho, some of the anime-themed shirts do look quite appealing, if nt for the hefty price tag.. :(
caught up wif bren alot bah.. nice to know that we r all doing well, esp wif the ord-spirit coming out of him alr!
had dinner at cafe cartel (got sick of waiting for ric and his membership card) and had this humongous pork rib thingy! yum! but feeling guility la... lucky tml got run.. if nt sureeeeee fat till dunno where one.
the rib!
anyway, finally managed to upload all of the pics from my handphone cam alr.. now to consolidate those in my mac into my windows com... urgh.. when i am done, i will post to facebook more... look out for it!

well, back in sg for two days alr.. and wat can i say, the weather is HAWT here! sweating at every given opportunity! went out wif jun wei ytd to bai bai at the si ma lu guan yin temple, as a form of "return" for the blessing that i have gotten b4 i left. went ahead to the new mall at bugis area, for my first movie back in sg! and its "Angels And Demons", adapted from a book by dan brown. the storyline is abt a crisis happening in the vatican, the pope has jus passed awy and a cult has emerged with a threat to destroy the vatican wif a stolen mega bomb (some antimatter thing). The story line twists and turns and every dialogue leads to the unraveling of yet another piece of the puzzle. And when u least expects it, the plot twists again. An awesome movie, from an awesome book with great acting by ewan mcgregor and tom hanks.
nua-ed at home the whole day, minus the haircut i had at hg mall.. now my hair is short again T_T oh well, caught up wif my bleach episodes alr.. an easy task, given that the storyline has reached an intense stage with major fighting between the soul society and los noches. oh well, tml is going to be busy busy.. MA at Ntu in the morning and DA at AH in the afternoon :( cant slp late le!
berlin, munich and home sweet home!

well.. back in the comfort of my home and typing on my desk. endured a grueling 12hr ride all e way frm munich.. but b4 that, let me update abit on my berlin and munich trips first..
went to berlin on the 13th wif the dudes. spent a whooping 42euros on the train tix alone! was a vry vry difficult decision to make whether or nt to go but i tot, since i was alr in germany and it was an off day, heck, go for it! and man, berlin didnt disappoint.. I was greeted by a gigantic glass train station, a whole 5 storeys of it at berlin, one of the most if nt the most majestic i have ever seen. Berlin's grounds frm then on is littered with culture and history, things that you have to read up to noe, from the bundestag, brandenburger tor, embassies of the various allied forces that participated in the WW2, majestic churches, museums and last but nt least the berlin wall. took lots of pics here and there and left our mark on the berlin wall itself! tho, it wud probably be repainted and washed awy in the period of months but, at least its an experience and i was actually dumb enuff to buy a piece of the berlin wall back wif me.. cost a freaking 5euros but for memories sake ba!
was at munich ytd as part of a stopover b4 flying back to sg.. didnt haf much time b4 the connecting flight but we managed to cover quite abit of ground, minus the entering of musuems, i guess.. of cos, our first venture in bavarian ground, being a rushed affair, wasnt as complete as we had wanted, esp without the beautiful castle in the munich outskirts which the disney snow white castle was based on. perhaps, this wud warrant a 2nd trip to germany?
anyways, back in sg le.. the last day in horsten was abit emo-ish for me... packing and remembering how we came.. 2mths, nt a short time but yet, nt long enuff to explore the whole germany. it has been a good experience for me, both in and outside of military work. A good closure to my national service bah :)
look out for the pics on facebook. :)
ahh...

oh well, on my way back to camp now.. Taking bullet train! Been a long day today, with a breakfast buffet at intercon's signature restaurant. We then visited heideberg and its old and dilapidated castle. Nothing special tho, other than its massive structure and torn down architecture. Then it was off to shop again at frankfurt. Nothing much other than loads of travelling ba? Off goes kenneth back to sg, my turn soon ba? Less than two weeks le! Anticipating!

now at frankfurt main! Reporting live from the intercontinental hotel frankfurt! This is probably the first and last time i will be staying at such a posh 5star hotel! The service and facility is not bad and its really prominent smack right next to the river maine in the city centre. Sharing a room with ah leslie for the trip. Abit sad la, can only stay a night here.. Back to horsten tml! :( prep for the next taking over whirlwind by the end of the week and its home sweet home for us! Today wasnt much ba, with a 6hour or so bus ride from camp down to frankfurt. And a chinese lookalike salmon lunch at a german restaurant. Followed by a really boring bus ride tour of the city, still prefer walking! The driver drove too fast for us to take decent pics of the places.. Had abit of walking in the town area and bought something at newyorker again! Tml :will be better!

watched finish love or bread ytd night. Nice show! Its about the female lead who is a hardworking girl that works a few jobs to feed her family and support her love interest in his studies. On her last day of work before flying off to meet her boy, she meets the male lead who is at first look, the scum of the universe. she saves him from impending doom from the loansharks and rushes off to meet her prince, only to be rejected! So her story with the male lead continues in entanglement and love starts to develop with the usual 3rd party stuff and best frens of both sides getting together in a typical taiwanese fashion. :) not bad a drama, counting down to back to sg!
