28th July 2007 - "Alone" with Jaslyn -

Wii session was cancelled last night cause Gary couldn't go, KC didn't want to go with so little people, and i also sian 99% liao. So be it.~ There will be a next time!

Somehow i got the flu, and felt horrible last night. Had to take some meds, and slept at 4am.. only to wake up at 12+

Played my ps2, SMT:Digital Devil Saga. I haven't touched my ps2 for so long. Feels good to be reacquainted with it again..

Left home at 3+ for Cineleisure. Queued up for 10+ minutes at the basement before i got the tickets to Alone, and then walked over to meet up with Jaslyn at Wheelock place. She was working at this restaurant there...

Oh right, on the way there i saw Janice and her friend, waved and left cause i was trying to reach there by 5pm.

Met up with Jaslyn. Her hair is now shoulder length, straight, and more normal in colour. Haha. She's changed a bit somewhat, but still quite pretty lar. Though everyone tends to think they're fat, i think she still looks the same in that factor.

What's changed was she started talking to me in English. Wah lao. Then she got this accent also. The act cute one ... haha. I got used to it after a while.

Went over to one of those mini stores at Taka and had some food. I would GLADLY show you the pics if i have them, but no i don't. Gotta wait til Jaslyn passes me the pics.

Walked up to Kinokuniya, to buy some envelopes/letters for my new pen-pal. This is so exciting, i love buying new stuff~

Then walked to Far East a bit, before rushing back to Cine (blur girl thought we were watching at Lido. bleh). Didn't miss any part of the show, but didn't buy any drinks cause we thought that there would be a counter at the 6th level. Well, there IS a counter, just that they don't sell iced drinks, but bottled ones; at an exceptionally overpriced rate i might add.

Then we settled down for the movie.



Star rating: 3/5

-------------------------

Pim is just another ordinary woman. She moved from Thailand and started a new life in Korea with her caring and loving husband. But one night, a phone call from Thailand changes her life forever. Pim learns that her mother is gravely ill with an unknown disease, and she and her husband Lee rush back to Thailand. The moment she arrives in Thailand, the flashbacks begin - painful memories long buried, along with a strange, familiar feeling. These things only grow stronger as she reaches the house where she grew up.

She is inundated with a nostalgia that is sweet, but with an undercurrent of terror and a realization that someone is there, right beside her, always. That someone had always been there. The secret of Pim and her family has slowly been revealed: she was once a Siamese twin! Pim and her conjoined twin sister underwent an operation to separate them. However, her sister died during the attempt. Now Pim suddenly feels her relentless presence. Will she regain the normal life she once had?

I must say, i was expecting a lot, since the directors of Shutter did this. But it wasn't as scary as i thought. I mean, i got shocked lar, but not 'shutter' shocked.. and the plot is quite predictable. The plot twist is really to be expected, and the last 20 minutes became a thriller.. beh.

Watch this only if you haven't watched any of the nicer shows out there.~

Took the train home, actually saw sis on the escalator of the MRT station.. welcome to work sis~ Jaslyn went to CCK to meet up with another friend for her 5th movie of the week. Phew.

Hectic life huh?

Went home, msned with Xuting for the first time. Learnt more about the pen pal thingy, and also about my pen pal. Its okay. I think its win win~ After all, i gained a new pen pal~

I'm not in love or anything after all. But i know the right one will come one day~ Oh yea, Jaslyn says i give the 'Stable, mature, yet can joke around' feeling. I think she's trying to say i'm boring. haha. Yea, i probably give you the 'stick with me for life' feeling? sigh. Rambling again.

I want to try new things while i'm still young. Enjoy each day as if its the last... live each day with no regrets!

Going to write my letter tml. Meanwhile you guys have fun, whatever you're doing~

PS (On the way home to somerset MRT station my right hand actually got hit by bird crap. My only feeling then was that i'm lucky it didn't hit my white shirt, and i just took tissue out and cleaned it up. I think i'm slowly getting emotionless or something. Maybe can adopt this attitude towards everything in life.)

Be thankful for every little thing in life~
