Something Interesting

A friend of mine sent me this email and i find it super interesting! Well guys, laugh over it! But its so true... Enjoy!

1) The organs of the body were having a meeting, trying to decide who was in charge. Each organ took a turn to speak up:
Brain......... I should be in charge because I run all body functions.
Blood........ I should be in charge because I circulate oxygen for the brain.
Stomach...... I should be in charge because I process food to the brain.
Legs......... I should be in charge because I take the brain where it Wants to go.
Eyes......... I should be in charge because I let the brain see where it's going.
A s s h o l e.....I should be in charge because I get rid of your waste.
All the other parts laughed so hard and this made the asshole very mad.To prove his point, the a s s h o l e immediately slammed tightly closed and stayed that way for 6 days, refusing to rid the body of any waste whatsoever.

Day 1 - Brain got a terrible headache and cried out for relief
Day 2 - Stomach got bloated and began to ache terribly
Day 3 - Legs got cramps and became unstable
Day 4 - Eyes became watery and vision became blurred
Day 5 - Blood became toxic and poisoned the body
Day 6 - The other organs agreed to let the a s s h o l e be in charge.

*MORAL OF THE STORY: NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, OR HOW IMPORTANT YOU THINK YOU ARE, YOU WILL FIND THAT IT IS WAYS THE A S S H O L E THAT IS IN CHARGE.*.


2) A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss are on their way to a meeting. On their way through a park, they come across a wonder lamp.They rub the lamp and a ghost appears.
The ghost says, "Normally, one is granted three wishes but as you are three, I will allow one wish each" So the eager senior manager shouted, "I want the first wish. I want to be in the Bahamas, on a fast boat and have no worries." Pfufffff, and he was gone. Now the junior manager could not keep quiet and shouted "I want to be in Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and cocktails." Pfufffff, and he Was also gone. The boss calmly said, "I want these two idiots back in the office after lunch at 12.35pm."

*MORAL OF THE STORY IS: " ALWAYS ALLOW THE BOSSES TO SPEAK FIRST"*

4) The Host : Food-stall owner, Gang-du (Song Kang-ho) walks out to the crowded Han Riverbank, when he suddenly sees a never-before-seen “something”, hanging from the Han River Bridge, and moving. The fascinated crowd around him start taking shots with their phones and digital cameras… until the “thing” climbs up onto the riverbank and begins to slash into the crowd. Gang-du has just enough time to witness the Creature snatching his daughter way and disappearing back into the river. Chaos reigns over Seoul. The Han River area is under quarantine. Gang-du receives a phone call from his daughter Hyun-seo, frightened but very much alive. Against all odds, with the help of his remaining family members, he plans to infiltrate the forbidden zone near the Han River and rescue his daughter from the clutches of the horrifying Creature.

My Ratings and Views : 7/10. This show is quite exciting. A thriller cum comedy movie. But if this show can break blockbuster office in Korea, i think the Koreans must really watch my all time favourite Japanese Movie, Ju On. Haha... This show is predictable. At certain point of time, it kept you in suspense. When you watched this movie, you just felt like slapping Gang-du (Song Kang-ho). I always told my trainees, "If you are a slow learner, its ok..can learn as time goes. If you are lazy plus stupid, I can't help you..and good luck to your days in OCS.." Well, this movie help me proved my point! Watch it and you will know what I'm talking about! Again, movie is movie lah... If there is such a creature swimming in our Singapore River, I think is either the whole Singapore will be wipe out or the creature will die...as our river is too small...Not enough space for him to swim and hide. haha..

5) Miami Vice: The cocaine cowboys of the '80s are gone, but Miami's Casablanca allure, the undercover cops and the attitudes of Michael Mann's culturally influential television series have been enhanced by time in the feature film version of Miami Vice.

Ricardo Tubbs (Academy Award® winner Jamie Foxx of Ray, Jarhead) is urbane and dead smart. He lives with Bronx-born intel analyst Trudy, played by British actress Naomie Harris (28 Days Later, upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean II and III), as they work undercover transporting drug loads into South Florida to identify a group responsible for three murders.

Sonny Crockett (Colin Farrell of S.W.A.T., The New World) ]to the untrained eye, his presentation may seem unorthodox, but procedurally he is sound] is charismatic and flirtatious until-while undercover working with the supplier of the South Florida group-he gets romantically entangled with Isabella, the Chinese-Cuban wife of an arms and drugs trafficker. Isabella is played by the Chinese actress Gong Li (Raise the Red Lantern, Memoirs of a Geisha).

The best undercover identity is oneself with the volume turned up and restraint unplugged. The intensity of this case pushes Crockett and Tubbs out onto the edge where identity and fabrication become blurred, where cop and player become one-especially for Crockett in his romance with Isabella and for Tubbs in the provocation of an assault on those he loves. Miami Vice, as a large-scale feature film, liberates what is adult, dangerous and alluring about working deeply undercover...especially when Crockett and Tubbs go to where their badges don't count...

My Ratings and Views: 9/10. Solid Movie! A MUST WATCH and its even worth it to watch again! The plot and the dialouges are simply marvelous. The characters, mainly Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell is so suited for this movie! Their calmness, intelligence, their plot...everything! But as for Gong Li...She must brush up on her English and put on more makeup. Should ask Maggi Q to act for movies liked this.

Last But Not Least.... Presenting.....

6) Ju On 1& 2 : A Volunteer home care worker, Nishina Rika (Megumi Okina), enters the home of a bed-ridden patient and discovers a strange ghostly presence lurking behind a door sealed with duct tape. Her discovery unleashes a horrible evil which baffles police investigators, who find that a whole series of people have gone missing from this particular house.

Further Investigation leads to Izutni Toyama (Miss Uehara), a former detective who handled the case of a man who murdered his wife in the house, but whose son was never found. But when the angry “Ju-On” spirit of vengeance that has infected the house reaches beyond its boundaries to kill Toyama and his daughter, Rika realizes that the horror is spreading.

Worse, unless something is done about it, she feels she may become the angry spirit’s next victim!

My Ratings and Views : 10/10. This show has been my all time favourite! Especially Ju On 2, the plot and horror is just there! From the start of the movie till the end, my eyes kept staring at the screen and thoughts just ran wild! The Ju-On Boy is DAMN CUTE too (I know many will say im mad...). haha... I love him! Running around scaring people! But I will not like to have any encounter with his mother... shes just...fierce... There is Ju-On series selling at VCD Stores... You just got to watched that to understand Ju-On 1.

For Ju-On 2, You got to watch the whole movie, piece them up together in order to understand why this and that happens... Besides Ju-On, another movie i will strongly recommend is SHUTTER. Another fierce horror movie...But nothing beats Ju On yet... hehe (Im bias here..)

Thats all guys... after My Taiwan trip, Movies Review III will be up! Stay Tune!

 

Movies Review II

Must apologised to all my readers who read my blog.. I promised for this movies review 2 to be up by last week but I'm too busy settling my work and meetings. I hope Im not too late! I viewed Golden Village Website and the following movies are still screening. Actually i wanted to rate Monster House too. But it wasn't screening already...So...Anyway, there you go! Movies Review 2!!

1) Singapore Dreaming: “Singapore Dreaming” is a story about a family with big dreams, living on a small island.

Heavily in debt, patriarch Loh Poh Huat can’t help but feel bitter irony whenever he has to perform his job as a lawyer’s clerk – seizing goods from the homes of credit card debtors. At the end of his career and frustrated by the gulf between his middle class dreams and his working class reality, he takes his feelings of failure and envy out on his family.

So when Poh Huat suddenly wins two million dollars in the lottery, the Lohs start believing that maybe this windfall will deliver them from their struggles. But something happens which pitches the family into a battle where the stakes are the very meaning of life itself…

“Singapore Dreaming” is a poignant, yet darkly humorous story about a typical Singaporean family coming to grips with their aspirations. It weaves a layered and moving tale about a family dealing with loss, ambition and the search for what really matters in life.

My Ratings and Views: 1/10. A total waste of time. Supposed to be a comedy/touching show. But Funny not funny, touching also not that touching. But in this show, the mother is damn smart. Shes not that stupid after all. A slight twist towards the end. Guys, don't waste your money. Rent VCD.

2) LITTLE MAN : is a raunchy crime caper that likewise uses a grotesque fish-out-of-water scenario as its comedic focal point. Marlon Wayans plays the diminutive and unquestionably weird-looking jewel thief who poses as a toddler in order to retrieve a diamond he hid with the childless-but-trying couple Daryl and Vanessa (played by Shawn Wayans and Kerry Washington). Hilarity ensues as the movie runs wild with a slew of breastfeeding jokes, crotch shots, and scatological humor that recognizes no boundaries. When Calvin's boss, Walken (Chazz Palminteri), tracks down the little man and his new family to snatch the diamond that is rightfully his, the movie turns into a familiar riff on HOME ALONE: when a criminal is after you, hit him in the crotch. Calvin and Daryl join together to defeat the evil Walken and his henchmen, and in the process learn a little something about what it means to love and be loved.

My Ratings and Views : 7/10. A good to watch show for passtime. Its really funny and entertaining. Marlon Wayans looks real cute in this movie. You might be wondering, "Are they stupid or what... The baby looks so old! They can't see meh?!" Guys... we are watching MOVIES! Well, at least this show will kept u awake and laughing for the whole 98min. Give credit to that!

3) The Banquet : When her brother-in-law, Li (starring Ge You) ascends the throne after the King’s death, Empress Wan (starring Zhang Ziyi) agrees to marry him in order to protect her step-son, Prince Wu Luan (starring Daniel Wu). Convinced that his uncle has murdered his father, the Prince Wu Luan decides to return to the palace and take revenge. Everything culminates in a night banquet where all hell will break loose…

My Ratings and Views : 7/10. This show is pretty exciting and artistic. I think this show is going to win "the best costume" in Jin Ma Jiang. Guys, it is definately more exciting than "House of the Flying Dagger". I always love Zhang Ziyi acting in Martial Arts Costumes. She just looks stunning! The songs sang by Zhang Ziyi and Daniel Wu is nice too. For people who watch this show, you all might be wondering who killed Zhang Ziyi... Did a little researched on that. She is either killed by Daniel Wu, who might not be dead yet, (If you watch the movie, the arrow which killed Zhang Ziyi was used only by Daniel Wu) or she was actually hallucinating, fearing that she might get killed someday by Daniel Wu. A movie worth watching.

 

Give Up and Wake Up!

At last! its the weekend again! Super tired mentally by work and all the plannings i did for the past 2 weeks!

Just 3 days ago, i went to Jurong Point to have dinner with my colleagues. I pass by this TS VCD/DVD Shop, decided to go in and buy some HK Dramas to watch during the weekends. Suddenly at one corner, i noticed that they are renting out DVDs/VCDs too! Don't know why, without even looking at the movie lists, i asked the salesgirl, "Is there a HK Movie call Wei Si Li? Acted by Luo Jia Liang?"

My friends shook their heads and walked away... (They know who am I renting for...)

I smiled when i managed to rent it because its not available in the market yet. I quickly went up to the Popular Bookstore and buy Blank DVD Discs to burn for her... At last, i completed the burning of the whole movie at ard 4am... When I'm done, i wanted to message her to tell her i got the show for her. I took up my hp, stare at it for like 5mins, i put down... Set up my Safari bed and went to sleep...

The next day, she message me asking where am I? I thought she wants to call me out. But actually, shes just bored overseas... I entertain her abit, told her that i had found the show and burn it for her already... Disappointed once again...

Today saw her in msn and chatted with her for quite awhile... conclusion? I guess the answer to my question will always be the same... the ones which i hear it from her many times until i lost count but still hoping and praying something might happen someday somehow.

Well, i guess the problems lies with me... I should be clear about all these right from the start. I will draw a clearer line from her from today onwards...

Sincerely, i wish her well and all the best in Whatever she does.

For me, I will continue to excel in my career and be more focus! Friends, wish me luck too!

Reflection of my "doing" for the past weeks

It has been a long time since i've last blogged. Sorry to all "my readers" because I am really very busy for the past 2 weeks since I'm back from Brunei. Let me reflect what i had done for the past weeks since ATP.


After the 2nd day of Range, I was being arrowed to do Security for last saturday C/H Commissioning Parade. It last from the final briefing at 10am till near 10pm. After that, i went straight to meet my buddies to watch "Little Man". (Movie Reviews 2 will be out soon)After that i sent them back and go home zzzzz......

Sunday - I spend almost half the day doing my Emplanning Slides and also watch the HK Dramas which i've burned.

On Monday, I drove down to G6 to hand over my flight manifest. I was late already but still went to the canteen to get a cup of coffee for Mr K (The DXO in charge of my flight manifest). But to my horror, the canteen is closed!!! I know I'm going to have a "hard time with him..." When we saw Mr K, he stare at us.... to make thing worst, my clerk forget to put in the passport holders nominal roll!!! After all the "swaning" session by Mr K, i go back, shouted at my clerk abit... Make him do work and follow me to G6 the next day!

The next day, i went down to G6 with my clerk, grab a cup of hot coffe for Mr K. The moment he saw the coffee, He smiled abit... Although still got mistakes here and there, but Mr K offered to solved it for me and told me to come down to G6 the next day to collect the comfirmation flight manifest from him so AMC can process the rest of my flight.

Moral of the Story - PR is super important... Thoughts count... Simple thing like a cup of coffee can solved many problems! haha

This week, I'm busy with changing of training program for the month of September till November. My boss suddenly wants me to organise a farewell dinner session with all those instructors who are posting out. Had to find farewell gifts. Make Wing Polo T and buying of SAFTI Coin for trainees who did extremely well during the Brunei Navigation package.

The next day, The momet i step into the office, My boss was scolding all the appointment holders! The trainees claim that they do not know what is happening... I went to check with my PCs and they said that the trainees were being briefed on whats going to happen.. But information was not passed down. After my boss lecture to the trainees, i called in the Main appointment holders and give them a 2nd round of lecture. I printed out my amended training program and tell them to check back with me when in doubts! my exact words to them,

"If i need my boss to scold and shout at you until liked that... It just reflects that I am not doing my job well when infact, i am... it just also proved that you idoits are not interested... If you are not interested, I am not interested. If this were to happen again, i make sure all your heads will roll...before the Instructors head roll..."

Haiz...trainees...


Yesterday and today we went to Tekong to do the CSB package. the whole thing last from 6pm till the next day 11am. I was appointed as the Chamber Safety Officer for this CSB... A tiring night for us all...

Well, tomorrow is Commander's Parade... Got to change training program again and double check if i've left out any more indents...

Will be posting my Movie Reviews 2 soon when i'm back home. stay tune!

Range Day 1...

Today is my ATP (Range). It is a very tiring day as this range is not an easy one. It is a time where every Serviceman is tested for their shooting skills annually.

I was appointed as the Assisting Conducting Officer for my Wing. Much was needed to prepare before a range can be conducted. I will not go into the minor details about the preparations (I’m not supposed to state it here…) portion as it will bored those who will be reading my blog, especially the ladies!

Working with my colleague J, who is appointed as the Conducting Officer is easy. He is in the force for a good 6 years and this makes him experienced enough to conduct this range. Besides we are good friends thus we can click easily and understand each other intends and concerns, “covering” for one another etc…

I’m very tired today because I spend some time to read up the lesson plan for the range. Sleeping at 3am and waking up at 6am, following the “advance party” to help supervise and set up the range with my Range Sergeant Major (RSM) is never an easy task. I only have 2 intends in my mind for this range,

1) Make sure all trainees and instructors pass the ATP
2) Make sure I’ll do better than last year in order to prove to my Wing Comd that I can actually
pass this ATP without much hassle!

The 2nd intend is that because I did badly last year and let him “swan” the whole freaking year! I tell myself, “This will NOT HAPPEN this year!” haha… Guess its my ego that comes into play again. I’m the kind of person who cannot “tarhan” comments liked the a/m.

Well, although I did not get Marksman, but I did above average this year, compared to last year. He kept quiet… But sad to say, one of my fellow Instructors failed the test by one shot! Same scenario as me last year! This time all eyes were on him! My superior said, “Last year I have Roger, this year is you…” Although my superior said it in a joking manner, I can feel my colleague’s anger and frustration. Because I had been through this, I went in with him as the Chamber Safety Officer cum Conducting Officer to guide him for the night range.

Yes, he passed his night range at last. But he still got another retest tomorrow for day range. I wish him best of luck!

Got to sleep on my safari bed now… Really tired mentally… Got to wake up at 6am again tomorrow, or rather, today. Pray for me for good weather and may God bestow on the firers, especially the retest firers strength in mental and physical. Oh yes, good eyesight as well! haha... All the best guys!

Came to a decision...

This week seems liked a bad week for me. Because of the new appointment I'm holding now, everything just seems not to go too smoothly. I must really brush up on my paperwork.

Well, today got into a little arguement with my sister... Its about the house again.... Sometimes, people must understand that i had my own plannings. I not refering to my Sister's suggestions (I really appreciate what she had done for the family) or what not... Its sometimes my very own relatives... They are always giving lots of suggestions but never once put themselves in my shoes... What adds on to it is I had an elder brother who "doesn't really seems to care much" about this issue at all. I am the youngest afterall!! Besides my Sister who is in overseas right now, why do I seems to be "handling" the family alone?

But through all these years whenever unpleasant things happened, I always tell myself, "God is showing me that this is a typical example I should not follow." or "These things happened because God wants to train me to be a more independant person. To build me up into a better family planner. So next time when I become the "Head" of my own family, things will not repeat again..."

I'm tired telling myself all these.....

People must really understand that all these are major decisions! I must think about it carefully because I'm not the kind of person who will only solve current problems 1st, the rest when the time comes then talk about it! I'm the kind of person who plan... I'm the kind of person who will ask myself questions liked "If now i take this step, how will it affect me or rather, us, in the long run...If this happens will I be able to handle?"

Anyways, after my conversation with my sister, I ask my mum for HDB pricelist and called up one of my friend who is a agent. I met up with her and ask if there is anymore solution to this matter... Her answer is quite clear..."Your parents is too old for another reloan..."

Well, i guess i had to put aside one of my goals (by 35, i will buy a condo..) and start my calculations once more.

When I'm on my way home, my mum called me at 4.30am and asked me where am I. Told her that i was on my way home but actually was at Pasir Ris Beach doing some thinking and reflections... After the conversation, I've decided...(but i don't know if can go according to my plan anot...)

We will sell the house and purchase a new flat at Sengkang/hougang/pungol area. The flats are cheaper there. No point carry on paying the current one, where everybody especially my dad had to slog liked a mad man, trying to make ends meet every month. Will find out from HDB if i can use my name and my mum's to purchase a new house, using my CPF and get a reloan from HDB as I 1st time applying for a flat. If this happens, all problems solved.

Got to call up my insurance agent today as well... To withdraw my CPF investment of 17k back to my CPF. Lots of stuff to think and do today.

Guys, wish me luck!

Relight my fire pls...

It have been days since I’ve last blogged. Well, even a simple fell during AHM can led to numerous messages from concerned Sister and friends asking how am I? Whether I got visit a doctor, etc… Thanks for all your concerns! Really am touched! Yes, my open wounds and hamstring is recovering. I could already walk properly but bathing, sleeping and walking upstairs is still a problem. No worries! I will be in 100% health by end of this week. Thanks once again!

This week is my first week as a TCO. I’m the person who will be in charged of my company’s training program and indents in order for the training to be a smoothed one… Working very closely with my upper study, I tried to learn as much and as fast as I can. Too many paperwork and issues to settle. Just imagine transport meeting for the month of September can easily last for 4 hours! Amazing….Guess it is again time to reorganize my “working style and pattern”.

Just learn how to add pictures to my blog! Learning HTML from a colleague.. I'm a "movie go-er" thus decided to post some blogs with regards to movies and my review on these films. Stay tune!!!

It is 2.38am in the morning now. I had just completed my work and some Emplanning stuff for this coming Taiwan trip. Considering taking 1 day leave on Friday… Really tired…

What a routine life I had now… Can someone come into my life and relight my fire?

Movies Reviews I

1) SNAKES ON A PLANE: This show is about an FBI agent who is escorting an eye witness on a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles when a crimelord sets in motion the release of hundreds of deadly snakes on the commercial airplane in order to eliminate the witness before he can testify against him. The FBI agent must protect his witness while banding together with the pilot, frightened crew and passengers in a desperate attempt to survive.

My ratings and views: 5/10. This movie is a pure thriller movies and the good guys never dies! The snakes in this movie is super horny too! (Watch it and you will know what i mean...) This movie is quite crappy during the last part when a nigal flew an airplane when his flying experiences is from a PS2 game - Pilot Air Simulator! The way the snakes "die" is not convincing either.

2) AN AMERICAN HAUNTING: Between the years 1818-1820, the Bell Family of Red River, Tennessee was visited by an unknown presence that haunted the family and eventually ended up causing the death of one its members. Starting with small sounds around the farm, and the sighting of a strange creature with piercing yellow eyes, the sounds escalated into full brutal contact with certain family members, causing psychological and physical torment. The attacks grew in strength, with the spirit slapping, pulling, dragging, and beating the Bell’s youngest daughter, Betsy.

My ratings and views: 6/10. I am a person who love to watch "Based on a true story" movies. This movie is quite errie at times. It is a pretty good movie to catch for people who love horror movies. The ending let people ponder if the little girl is really being posses by evil spirit or if it is her own imagination to safeguard against her father. Well, to me she is obviously being posses! Guys, give some thoughts to it and end it your way, your believed!

3) Chai-Lai Angels: Five undercover agents, or “Chai Lais", are tasked with foiling the evil plans of an international crime syndicate. All heroines in their own right, they must use all of their ingenuity and skill to fight their evil nemeses as they arrive in Thailand to pursue the key to their national treasure.

My ratings and views: 1/10. Guys, i watched this movie because there is already no other show to watched that day after a hectic day @ work. Don't waste your time and money.... Its supposed to a an action cum comedy film but i slept inside the cinema! Super lame movie... NEXT!

4) THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA: A drastic improvement on Lauren Weisberger‘s bestselling novel, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA showcases Meryl Streep’s knack for combining humor and sadness. While likely inspired by notorious VOGUE editor Anna Wintour, Streep’s Miranda Priestly (head of Runway magazine) is entirely her own creation. Sporting silvery hair, a vast collection of fur coats, an encyclopedic knowledge of all things fashionable, and a killer smile, Miranda is full of wicked charm. With her mature beauty and commanding presence, Miranda is as fascinating to watch as she is intimidating to the constant rotation of assistants thrown her

way. When bookish Northwestern grad Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway) interviews to become Miranda’s newest lackey, Miranda hires her not for her lackluster wardrobe but for her intellect. Inside the pristine Runway offices, Andy suffers through a never-ending list of impossible tasks, and is the subject of constant harassment by Miranda’s jealous first assistant (Emily Blunt). But to the dismay of her boyfriend (Adrian Grenier) and close friends, Andy slowly finds herself seduced by the glamorous world of fashion, and by Miranda herself. While Andy’s transformation comes largely in the form of new designer clothing, the makeover is mental as well.

My ratings and views: 8/10. A branded and glamorous movie! All the actors had their own attitude and style. I'm impress with Anne Hathaway transformation! From a country bumpkin person with minimum dress sense to a super model kind of dressing with perfect makeups. Yes, this show is quite predictable but it really impress me throughout the whole movie! Even guys liked me loves the heels they are wearing! It is touching towards the end as well. Especially when Anne Hathaway give up her job during the peak of her career for her boyfriend. It ponders people mind when it ends up that way - to give up her rich and glamorous lifestyle for a guy who work as a chef! Well, this movie teaches us something. Money and branded goods can't buy you all things - Especially true love. Know what you are doing, always. Do not deviate from your your goals too much and lastly, be true to youself! A movie worth watching!
