feeling a bit bummed out now so it's time for some happy blogging therapy.

just realised that i haven't done the usual sentimental new year crap about growing up and becoming a better person and making resolutions like how i'll start Counting My Blessings and Being Thoughtful And Kind To People. well, we all know how those work out. in any case i don't feel any different now that it's 2006- it's like the new year just sort of happened. you know i was like watching the minute hand of the clock move to 12 and i was just like hurry up already. which is why i would really worry if i had kids because i can just imagine what giving birth would be like. i'd be such a total freak. maybe at the delivery room the baby would also just sort of happen, you know what i mean? damn, i'm so immature that i surprise even myself.

in fact 2005 just passed by the way every other day passed by, and it's not like i suddenly acheived enlightenment or something. the only real differences i can think of are that i finally found someone to whine to and that i survived the exam from hell and finished the last year i'll ever have to spend in school uniform. plus i studied more than i have in my entire life combined, which is something, i guess. and i lost like 4 kg since the start of J1, all of which appears to have come from only one area and it sure isn't my face. yes, so that was 2005.

sigh. suddenly i'm having this bright idea that i should just morph into a piece of driftwood and float across to tekong. that would be a good way to get over the lonely jobless lazy mood that i'm in now. maybe i could even pretend to be one of the boys because it's not like i have much of anything that could potentially give me away haha. except that i don't think i'll survive the communal toilets and the not changing underwear for 4 days thing. that is beyond gross. plus i would have to shave off all my hair and what if i have a pimply scalp or something.

maybe we should talk about movies.

narnia- i've never seen a movie with an uglier cast. i mean like there was not a SINGLE vaguely good looking person in the whole entire show, and this is coming from someone who gets crushes on C-list reality TV stars. the worst was the whiny youngest sister who's like always popping up to bitch about something in her irritating squeaky voice. who gives a fuck? i mean people like orlando bloom get away with having one expression because at least it's good to look at. so what's up with narnia? why couldn't the casting director like throw in a legolas or cedric diggory???

the family stone- sarah jessica parker looks tired and wrinkley and all the guys have square jaws. rachel mcadams looks a bit fat and clare danes is forgettable. the good thing is that the plot isn't draggy and it's genuinely funny at times. it's very predictable but it does leave you feeling nice and happy unlike all the other new-age comedies like prime, which left me feeling very unsatisfied at the end.

wallace and gromit- best movie i've seen this year! in fact i just watched it on monday with hongyi and mark and could hear hong laughing really loudly at some parts so at least i'm not the only one who likes slapstick. plus the mini penguin movie at the start was really hilarious too! i think i much prefer claymation to like the super high-tech 3-D disney animation shit where they code entire programmes so that even the friggin body hairs on the animals move individually and realistically. i'm glad this was a good movie because the last cartoon that i watched was finding nemo and all i remember was that i slept through half of it. i mean, what's more retarded than a movie about one fish looking for another fish???

and omg my driving theory test is at 9am tomorrow and as usual i've been intending to study for it for the past week but haven't done a single damn thing apart from think about it. and now there's like this whole handbook of 64 pages which needs to be memorised so that i don't like accidentally kill somebody when i get my hands on the steering wheel. i am only slightly fucking screwed, i believe...
