enchanted

Do you believe in your one true love?
Do you believe in true love's kiss, the most powerful thing ever?

Yeah, I got that from the movie Enchanted, which I just saw over the weekend. Yes, my movie list is damn kuno. It's a nice movie la, with entertainment values. But it worries me, that Robert (Mr Dempsey), can give up his girlfriend of 5 years, whom he was also about to pop the question to, for Princess Gisele (Isla Fisher).

All that one true love thing is nice and lovely and romantic but MEH.

Was he just sailing along with Nancy, waiting for a Gisele to turn up?
Did he ever REALLY love Nancy? He was about to propose to her!
Is it possible to fall for a person so easily? Just like that? Even when you're already with SOMEONE else???

If you're Nancy...wouldn't you be worried sick?!

Of course, that's just a movie, and it's just a fairytale. In real life, I would imagine Nancy to be a woman scorned. As if there'd be a Prince Edward (James Marsden) for you to conveniently fall in love with when your man runs off with another lady. He'd probably end up being Mr Rebound.

Ugh. Sometimes, when the ending of a movie doesn't justify it, I just HATE IT when people get broken up for no reason at all. And personally to me, one true love is not reason enough to break up a 5 year relationship. Because love is all that, and a whole lot more.

I guess the movie was trying to say that sometimes, fairytales can come true; something I just can't agree with at all.

being a mannequin for 5 minutes

Just got back from Freeze KL (the second one) at Sunway Pyramid. Quite a lotta people. We froze at the concourse below Starbucks, at the old wing i.e. outside Royal Sporting House, Women's Secret and Nose. I think the freeze-ers were a bit confused at the beginning, because we didn't all freeze at the same time. And some of us froze, got confused with the time, made some uncertain moves, and froze again. I wanted to drag Liang to Women's Secret and freeze outside their display window, staring at bras and panties (hehehe) but we had to gather round to hear whatever the hitz.fm people were trying to tell us. And then...eh? Time to freeze already? Cheh. So, ended up standing with the crowd. This Liang was balancing on one foot, and he was leaning on me! His whole siu yook-ish self! After the first 2 minutes, he was starting to lose his balance, and ended up pulling me along with him. Crap! I was trying to keep my balance for the remaining 2-3 minutes. Hmph! It wasn't that hard to keep still for 5 minutes. Just relax and zone out. There were kids threading through the crowd, and this kid said, "I'm gonna make them laugh! MUAHAHA!". Evil kid.

Ooh yea, we had our maiden taste of Wendy's for dinner before the freeze. Nice burgers. Nice chips. Had the sour cream and chives baked potato too, which pales in comparison with those from Oliver's Super Sandwiches. Nothing beats Oliver's baked potatoes :) Liang doesn't eat potato skin. It's yummy and it's good for you!

I think I saw a dead hamster at the Pet Lover's Shop in Pyramid (opposite Giant). It was just a bunch of fur stuck to some dead skin, poor hammie :( This one's not as gross as the one I saw at the pet shop in Ikano, though. The dead hammie still looked like a hammie; except the body was torn at certain parts, it was bloody, and there were 3-4 hamsters tugging at it from different sides! *eeps* So disgustingly sad. That's why we shouldn't buy pets from pet shops. They aren't usually all that healthy. Imagine a huge ass village of hamsters living in one little tank. Not very healthy yar? And not to mention, hamsters are pretty territorial (especially females), and don't exactly live well in large groups. That's why they end up tearing each other to bits. And don't even think about keeping more than 1 hamster in 1 cage. It's always best to buy your pets from a breeder, to ensure quality. (I know Kuaci came from a pet shop; but only because I lost touch with the hammie breeder I used to know! >.<) Better yet, have a heart and adopt them! (I dunno about adopting hamsters though...) PAWS is full of love-hungry pets :) They wouldn't mind some form of donations too, seeing how dilapidated their site is. They accept cash, pet food, old newspapers and anything else that might help run the place.

And in no time, it's Monday again. Back to the daily grind.

random irritation

You know how some people love to read...they just do it everywhere, and they're never seen without some kind of reading material. For some obscure reason, I suddenly remembered this person at some gathering few years back. Some kinda avid reader and so proud of it that she needed to show it off. Pffttt.

Slumped over the sofa, nose stuck in a book, not speaking to anyone. You think you look so cool but you're not, you're just freaking rude.

Parties are for people to mix and mingle.
Reading is a one person pleasure.
So selfish. So do it in your own time la.

Sorry, just suddenly felt random.

Also pretty annoyed with this one person who never stops talking about work. I'm happy for you that you've found a job so bloody interesting and fulfilling but hey! Maybe you could talk about yourself in other terms besides your job?

Your career can't be the only thing that defines you...can it?

Ugh. People.
