fiona's birthday
Thursday, January 31, 2008 10:05 PM

haha! I've cleared two movies in my list[previous post]already!
and its...27 Dresses and Cloverfield!!!! yay!! :D
hahaha ok im kidding on the second one.
its actually Sweeney Todd. yesyes not kidding on my johnny depp! lols. :D

I love 27 Dresses btw! wondeful wondeful romantic comedy. kept me laughing at most parts, but i didnt tear up at the supposedly touching scenes. haha because basically, they were not that touching. but its a very pleasant movie[would be even a nicer experience for me if the ah lians sitiing rows back would stop laughing ah-lianishly. =X] .

Sweeney Todd is M18. for violence. but i've actually managed to persuade myself to forget that little fact and so, when depp started slashing this guy's throat with blood spitting out everywhere, I was like covering my mouth and going all omg-ish. hahaha. gore extent, for me[who seldom watches gore shows],is pretty great, but not overwhelming. after a few other blood-spilling and throat-slashing, i was all 'kill him! slit his throat!' lols! other gore factors include baking human meat and throwing mrs lowett into the fire and letting her burn to death.
yet even though all these may seem cruel, but you'll still end up on johhny depp's side. hahaha ok im not saying this because i like him, but because his character is actually quite a pitiying one, and there's even one part of the movie that he appears to be adorable! serious. and did i mention that he can sing? not only does he has superb acting skills and is sexy, he sings well! LOL. k a little bias-ness here.

so anyway, went for fiona's birthday party last week. :) its a bbq at east coast park, meant to be a surprise. and before that ting and I went to buy some decos and miscellaneous stuff. even went to her house to bake! even though we didnt use the cake at the end, it was fun. :)

















okay i didnt do most of the baking la. just did the simple stuff. cuz i cant bake for nuts. haha..going to be a terrible housewive. =X





















introuding my shifu chen huiting~! :D she baked four times before! not bad hor, going to be good houswive. HAHA. ;)
















this is me acting pro. hey, stirring the mixture also need tactics ok! you need to do it in a specially formualated motion so that everything is mixed real well. yeah....































haha very pretty right? its for the icing.















lols. okay thats not what you think.















you cant really see the water level. just my pink nails. haha.































woo! nice sweet chocolaty smell in the air! :)
















unfortunately I had to leave before the cake was done. i wanted to taste it! haha. nvm there'll be other chances next time..since *uhem* my birthday is coming.. ok not really but time passes very fast after lunar new year and by then whaddya know? march is here! LOL. im self-deceiving.

































these are taken at serangoon mac before we set off for east coast. mega-sized birthday card specially made for fiona! huiting designed the card cover and the first page. someone's artistically talented ar. finally you're good at something. hahaha kidding la..


at east coast park..

































mmmm.. looks yummy eh? :)


















*gasp* is that.. is that.... napok refusing food? this photo must be photoshopped! hahaha ok la so mean. ;)















we have A LOT of food stuff ready. and not to mention the drinks,which we all gulped down quite alot. green tea and coke got us pretty bloated. haha.




































zhenwei and napok helped to put up the decos and balloons while we the girls sit comfortably at the bench and slack. hehe.
















dao ar. take photo with me is an honour ok. lols.
















see how big and blown-up these ballons are? no easy feat ok!

let napok demonstrate..













































looking pleased with himself. haha.
but these balloons are really hard to blow la. zhenwei was the first one who managed to blow one up and fiona was like saying how she admire him and how man he is. LOL.


and nightime comes..















time for the cakes! :D there's two because napok bought the black one while the other white one was baked by huiting and me. hahaha ok la no. one of fiona's friends bought it. so we had two cakes. yay. :)
















































both cakes are very guiltily delicious but i personally like the black one cuz its damn chocolaty and i have a weakness for chocolate. haha.














huiting insisted that those two orangy round i-dunno-what-is-it-called-but-it-always-appear-on-top-of-cakes cannot be eaten. but i think one of the guys says it can be. so.... can it or can it not? find out in next episode of.... lols ok fine.
















































HAHAHAHA! caught in the act! earlier still trying to act ar! LOL. huiting seems really happy to have successfully fed him. tian mi mi...ni xiao de tian mi mi... hahaha kidding la. :D

















walao...




















presents! beanie hat from me and scarf from huiting. seem like we're preparing her for some cold country. haha.

and more photos!





































































































































yayayay very nice. i had a great time. hope you enjoyed your birthday party girl. :) so now you know what to do on the 26th of march....... hahaha okok.





i cannot watch linger anymore cuz its not airing alr. :( now have to wait for new year to come and all the other movies will be aired. and oh ya! I forgot to mention one movie i really anticipate. its The Water Horse. nope it has'nt come out yet but there's the trailer on youtube. im really excited about it because its about the loch ness monster[i dun understand why the hell do the director want to name it the water horse] and for those who dunno yet, im fascinated by this water creature which may still exists, due to reported sightings be it made up or true[ya i once used the loch ness monster as a topic for my eng assignment]. yes you can laugh cuz i know its funny to be serious about something that may long ago have been extinct. but i dunno, im just fascinated by it. hahaha. here's one weird fact about me.
okay im signing off. still have work 2moro but im taking half day! :D byebye!

WELCOME:)

you are not alone
I love him all the same

saturday, july 18th, 2009. Michael Jackson, King of Pop
If I were to write this post one week ago I wouldn't have got past the first few lines, without crying so badly. Admittedly, the news of his passing did not bothered, much less saddened me because my impression of him was vague and as a child I wasn;t exposed to any of this songs or videos, just news from the press every now and then. Till a few days after his death. I went on Youtube and before I knew it I was clicking videos after videos, watching and in awe of this man who not only served to entertain, but strived to serve the community with his enormous heart. And as I watched on and knew more, so much more about what he've been through his life, emotions started pouring in. And when I least expected it, tears started to come. I was never his fan, but now I regret not being one. It is not just one of those idol craze or whatever no, it was true sincere admiration for his works and humanitarianism that touched me, that made me look upon him as a role model. Its hard to believe that since the media had portrayed him as some wacko freak, paedophile, child molester..etc. but may I say, BULLSHIT. he is none of that sort. Other than being the greatest entertainer of the time and coming up with the most original dance moves that many stars tried hard (but pale in comparison in my opinion) to imitate, Micheal Jackson shares the love he has, especially to children, to people around him. He was a philanthropist, donating millions of dollars to the record 39 charities he supported, and raising more through his own Heal the World Foundation. He built NeverLand Ranch, complete with amusement parks, fun rides, a place where children dreamed of going for fun and laughter. From young, Michael Jackson had a childhood very different from others, where had to perform at a very young age. When he made mistakes, his father used to beat him, and not only with a belt. To make up for his lost childhood, Michael had always adored children and he himself is somehow like a child trapped in an adult body (watch his documentary, ignore the stupid bastard interviewer who was plain bias and selfish to see that such a nature still exists in a man so great he just had to bring him down. shall not waste time elaborating on this backstabbing ass because he's simply not worth it. If you're interested, watch the documentary Living with Michael Jackson on youtube. I could'nt get past to the last few parts because I got so fed up with his narrow-mindedness and ignorance that I closed the window). So back to the point. Michael Jackson brought orphans to NeverLand, where they play freely in the theme parks and find joy and laughter, which he himself derive more than anyone else' from the happy looks on their faces. Children were invited for sleepovers at his place, because it was safe, secure. But when news of him being a child paedophile arose after being charged by one of the kids who slept in his room, he ended up paying millions of dollars aside from being publicly humiliated and disgraced. because he did nothing disgraceful of that sort. because a few years later the kid owned up that it was his parents who made him to do, succumbed to the temptation of money, something which Micheal Jackson do not lacked. The father was tape-recorded discussing his intention to pursue charges, where he said, "If I go through with this, I win big-time. There's no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever ... Michael's career will be over". It was painful. Yet Michael still persisted, years later, in bringing less fortunate children to NeverLand, because that was more important to him. Even though the pain and hurt he had gone through had probably never healed. His strength is one of the reasons why I admire him so much. Then there was another incident, this time of him 'dangling' his baby over the window. 'omg he's crazy he wants to throw the baby down!!!!' maybe that's what it seemed like on tv and on papers, but what they didn't show is the crowd of fans below the hotel he's staying, yelling his name and wanting to also see his baby. So Michael showed them his baby, his hands wrapped under his baby's arms so tight and pulled him back as fast as he could. But what did the viewers see? A slowed-down version of him apparently dangling his baby in mid-air like a bad father. Its ignorance if people believed he was going to actually throw his own baby down the building. And at that time, I was one of the ignorant ones. I remembered looking at the pictures on some gossip magazine and felt slightly freaked out. But now I realise how much he loved his children, and how hard he tried to protect them from the media. And again, all these negative press and biasness probably was too overwhelming....how much pain can a person take? we would never know because we're not him, its hard to understand. But maybe all these people will leave him alone now, since he's already gone. I bought The Essential Michael Jackson cd, a compilation of hit songs by him. My dad and I watched his concerts and performances and music videos and we were more than in awe, in fact I think thats an understatement. Newfound respect and admiration for the man who was so creative and original, who dared to do things not commonly seen, creating dance steps while he sang at those times when most singers just stood there and sung. He thought of challenging and exciting music videos where people had never seen the injection of extra footage to create a kind of story. And not to mention those crazy vocals, coordinated dance moves, the famous moonwalk (I never get tired of it) and this amazing 45degree tilt he does which simply blows my mind away. It was all his signature style, the gloves, the crotch-grabbing whatever. Every single performance was done in class and so much more. He was an inspiration to people over the world, different races, and especially to African-Americans. He was an icon and also their pride. I can rattle on and on because there's too many things about him that are truly inspiring and simply awesome but sometimes words just cant fully express it. And yes maybe I do seem a little bias but this is what I truly feel. My only regret is that I have and will never get the chance to attend one of his mind-blowing concerts and be one of those lucky fans who felt the presence of Michael Jackson, the most successful entertainer of all time, the King Of Pop. 'Smile, even though your heart is aching.' This is one of the lyrics from his favourite song 'Smile', written by Charlie Chaplin and was sung during his memorial. I remembered someone said something like this during the memorial, 'Even though we need him here, but I guess God needed him more'. Even though we miss him so much, Heaven is probably the place he needs to be, away from any pain, suffering or cruelty. (rhymes!) He has already achieved so much and left behind a wonderful legecy that will pass down to generations after generations. Thank you Michael.
