Xlb-ed

P304

The difficult-to-arrange outing finally came. Started with the groupon deal. Max of 4 per table. Part 2 after part 1 at the pac coffee coy which i am not allowed to say in short form. And there was the games in discussion as well. Joo is bejewelling. Merv is hanging with frens, both done only while doing a certain activity in the restroom. V strong impact on the taste buds with the flavoured xlb with the sides being ramen and fried rice. Totally overdosed.

Jiali got a nice dress i thought. Conclusion? Have to source for more for sisters dress on her big day.

From shopping in korea; schnappi in germany; smoking weed in amsterdam; waka waka in south africa; posh living in the land of happiness-bhutan; neeeww yoorrkkk and california in the states; road trip in australia or nz to short getaways to phuket, fear of mines in cambodia, all the nearer regions, we jus cant compromise on a place for the next great escape. Finally eva showed the merv photo with sean in the backgrd posted and tagged by amy. The episode will and to be continued. Heading home meanwhile.

An alternate reality from an alternate path

P291

Inspired from the source code movie. Slight similarity to inception. Mind blogging script. Thot provoking. Really depends on individual interpretation.

Hanging with friends. One balloon vs zero balloon. 5 balloons vs zero balloon. It really depends on the choice of words thruout the whole game. There r jus too many permutations to wipe off ur opponent. Jus one small little step will make a difference downstream.

Every step in life counts? Or it can be discounted. It could jus be a trial, what u gain from it, whether u pursue, whether u apply? Thinking of the many things ive tried:

The schs ive been to, choosing npcc as a cca, studying japanese as a 3rd lang n then giving it up, learning cooking, guitar, chinese martial arts, gg on student exhange progs to taiwan, vietnam and england, skipping lessons and backpacking in europe, learning animation, yoga, diving. I may have done much more but do they form any part of my memories or do i need to dig deeper? It depends on the impact and how relevant it is to my current life. Am i still pursuing it or jus a touch and go. Tried and so what? Whats next?

What is the alternate reality if i had chosen any other different path?

Music heals

P281

To stand barefooted on the sofa, holding the mic and just sing all your troubles away. Deeply believing in their sound proof system in the partition walls, that is, else it's jus too bad for the neighbours.

My mind has been whirling recently. Too much in fact. Too much reflections? Crap. I cant even decide its too many or too much reflections. Uncountable right? But ... Sigh free my mind pls.
Human are getting complicated. Maybe they already are right from the start. Or is it jus me? What are those vibes that i am getting from some pple. Who are the ones playing politics. i need a Paradigm shift. I need a simpler thinking process.

From yest bbq, a short episode of principles and FTs. Interesting views and responses. They should've asked instead of complainig and blaming the charcoal. Biasness may be lessen if they werent FT. What was my stand? I detest but i have the eagerness to make the charcoal burn. But i was asked to control not to help. Anyway we are pros firemasters haha. Smoke less pit, ashless bbq food. And we have pro food masters who nice food such as cheese mushrooms, bacon with asparagus. Wow.

Welcome to my life by simple plan.

Lucky heights

P266

Finally gotten the mood, or rather discipline to pay a visit to lucky heights. The most dreaded upslope during PE lesson. The thought of it brings huge inertia and resistance to both my legs. Now, the route is chosen at free will, independent of anyone, and perhaps i can have some music to the ears, running from the opposite direction, somehow slightly more enjoyable. 3.4km, a 80 jog 20 walk plus a sprint. I will do better next time.

Statuses

P260

Always taking different roles at different times of the year, month, day and even hour. And thus all emotions have the chance to represent me for awhile, to be shown on the same face.

Sometimes i wanna get into recluse and stay in a cloister, while there are times when i wanna stay in the crowd and be drowned in human activities. Needed. The ability to adapt to Inconsistency. The ability to understand myself.

Kungfu panda 2 @ imax lido

P240

The previews introducing the imax effects are much better than the actual production. The imax ultimate movie experience allows you to see more, hear more and feel more. The images are right in front of your eyes, within an arm's length. I believe the actual production are still not ready for that kind of digital effects.

The production is fantastic. From character building, story boarding and animation. With my previous experience in animation classes using maya and with wushu as my cca in jc, i think i can relate and interprete more than without the experience. Humour, including the lame ones are nicely injected.

"what is the plan?"

"plan one, save the 5" with the 5 already freed beside him.

"what's plan two?"

Plan one is better off not said. The speed at which the characters converse also add to drawing the desired response from the audience.

The fighting styles and kungfu stunts, unique to each character are jaw dropping. The teamwork among po and the 5 is also applaudable. Introduction of new characters like the peacock, the gorillas bodyguards and the wolves pack are well decided. The meaningful dialogues serve as moral of the story and the cuteness of the chibi po captured the audiences' hearts as well.

The finale fighting style using inner peace is akin to the goalkeeper in shaolin soccer. To neutralise evil and invincible forces. But the idea of the enemies being defeated by their own creations should be the best ending already. Isnt it?
