i particpated in the 三跪一拜 event in bright hill temple, the largest temple in s'pore. in this event i had to do as the name implies, walk 3 steps and then knee down and 拜once around the whole inner perimeter of the temple. the whole perimeter i estiminate is abt 2 to 3 km. it took me 2++ hrs and 拜 over 300 times. its a way of expressing ones devotness towards their religion. and to me, its really a religious experience. this is the 3rd or 4th yr i hav particpated in this event, and every yr i come back with an aching thigh and bruised knee, so why i still wanna particpate in it, i dun noe myself. perhaps its for making a wish for this yr A level, perhaps i jus wanna find some peace through it, perhaps im jus religious. haha... there are over 300 pple in a whole parade, but there is nothing but peace. no one is talking, all i can hear is the muttering of the mantra. its truly a spirtual experience for me.

yup yup, this post is abt the recent events tat i've not posted since the start of the holi.
went to watch pirates with the cls last fri after the full day, it was a great movie in my opinon, better den the other 2, but tanying and leekee keep saying its draggy in the beginning even though i dun feel tat way. nevertheless, its funny, exciting and interesting. i dun mind to watch it another time.
wasted my time away over the weekend and mon, i knew tat i hav to start mugging but my body jus wont follow my mind, heck it.
went for frisbee on tues, its been so long since i train, and my body isnt in gd shape especially since i've not completely recover frm my flu. almost passed out at the end,but thanks to the other team mate who keep asking whether im well and encouraging me. i'll recover to my excellent form soon and become a super pro catcher and defence (: haha...
we went to play lan afterwards at mao's uncle shop, pardon me mao, but tat shop sucks, lousy computer and space, squeezey and poor lighting( i prefer it to be dim when playing lan). but mao and john introduce me to a whole range of new games, i especially like the tower game where u hav to build towers to defend ur ship or castle. next time i'll pull them to the lan shop at katong which is much better and cheaper and we'll enjoy the game more!!! =)

caught a fricking flu tat tormented me for 3 days already, although there r signs tat its getting better, the flood of mucus still wont stop. ya i noe, it sounded disgusting, it is disgusting even for me. the most probable source is frm valerie cuz stella also caught a cold and the symtops are the same. but heck it la, its not gonna stop me from watching pirates tmr!!!
anyway, something mirculous happened today to me tat even i cant believe. during the GP lesson, we played "Who wants to be a millionaire" and i got kick out frm being the flying dutchman cuz of my poor pronounciation, so i became a quiet audience and sit thru the game while other pple play it, cant understand half of the qns and dun noe the other half of the of ans, feeling like an idiot. then my turn came, i was the last player of the game. and since my grp hav already won, i decided to heck it and anyhow play with sheer guts. so i ans 1 qn after the other, and ans 3/4 of the qn with well, guessing, and it proves to be an efficient way. as i somehow reach $16000 mark somehow, and with some crazy luck, my $320000 qn is "how many sides do a trapezium have?" i was stunned by the qn, of course not becuz i dun noe it. somehow the britains r a bit retarded to make this the 32000 qn. but well i ans it and the next $64000 qn with guessing again "who is the father of zeus?" and the ans is something tat starts with b, haha. i finally chickened out at the $125000 qn tat asked which city does------(i forget liao) rule, i run with the money. but i made a guess which is troy and it turned out CORRECT. fricking shit, i could hav reached $125000 and with 3 more qn i can win $1,000,000. tats quite a lot of zeros. but nvm la, shouldnt go too far. 知足为乐. haha, my CL is still not rusty yet. Yay!!!

The end, tts right, the end. jus watched finish 神雕侠侣, all 41 episode of it. As any1 who know me well enough would knoe, im one hell of a tv & vcd & dvd series drama addict. To a series drama addict, nothing is as sad as the end of a drama series. the usual sense of hollowness has come back, the feeling of dun noe wat to do wat to watch, and the sense of loss. haish...
this last episode is a bit disappointing, its suppose to be the climax, and as a Jin Yong fan also i hav of course read it be4 since the time i can recognise chinese character and noe every single detail abt it. alot of the details are missing and there are not many scenes with liuyifei!!! the fight is not as exciting as i expect and 金轮法王 actually became a gd guy at the last part!!! however i must give credit to the computer graphic designer tat created super nice special effect.
but the worst of all things is the interruption by my 2 sister. i was lying on my big sis bed while watching cuz its more comfortable then on my double decker bed. but then she came back home for the 1st time so early i swear be4 12 midnight. i had to go to my 2nd sis's bed. then my big sis started to make a damn lot of comments abt the show like my mom while watching tv which is damn disturbing at the CLIMAX!!!!! then my 2nd sis came back, she shld go celebrate longer
after the end of her exams, and i had to leave to my bed which is uncomfortable to look down to the tv. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
den i had to tolerate the shitty ending which is 100% different frm wat it shld be. totally spoiled the whole drama which i hav so enjoy watching.
and last of all, DAMN those pirated DVD makers, to squeeze 11 episode into a dvd which can only fit 10, they cut a damn damn damn damn damn damn lot parts, and quite a few climax part in this last disc. f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f, i dun usually swear on my blog but it is super irriating. Everything is wrong wrong wrong.
However, overall 神雕侠侣 is a very nice show and im surprise in how gd the acting skills of china actors in recent years. but there is just one thing, they tend to spam the wind too much. everytime there is an upclose shoot on one of the character there will be tons of wind blowing and their hair and clothes will wave in the wind. it is a nice effect, but spamming it too much is not very good either.
now that even 神雕侠侣 is over, it may signal to me tat i hav to start studying. thinking of it, i hav been slacking too much............
