NDP and beyond




Attended the NDP on Thursday. Went to the stadium but we stood outside, due to the lack of tics. Got a few pics but there's more smoke than fireworks in most of them, so I just uploaded a few. I like the first cos its REALLY BRIGHT.. So glad I caught it. I thot last yr's fireworks were better, with more variations; maybe its cos Im standing in the stadium.

Having a hard time now, trying to get my tutorials. Basically I go to school everyday but its good so that my lessons arent so packed together like JC. And my writing module lecturer gave us pre-lecture hw. Like huh... Interesting how these U Serious Professor profs think. I think balloting for tuts is much more irritating than bidding. Maybe its cos we are protected in bidding so I need not give much of a hoot.

It sucks having to survive on allowance, especially when half of them will probably be spent on textbooks. Then there's driving on Thu. Im taking early morning lessons everyday at 8am till Thursday, all in the hope that I will pass. I hope I pass really, so that I need not waste my time and money on the car. Its cool that my relatives initiated the idea of buying me a car when (if?) I pass but Im glad my mom forbade them, cos I doubt I will wanna own a car till 30.

I knew many ppl during orientation. It amazes me how uni students can get so wild in orient. O well... Spent my last wkend going out with diff ppl. Watched like 3 movies within 2 days.

Just a quick summary. "The Simpsons" is worth watching cos it kept me laughing every minute, literally. "Rush Hour 3" is pretty short, predictable storyline but more farcical this time. Appears more like a comedy half the time, not worth a wkend...

I watched the "Secret" too by Jay Chou. The gals are chio la (and probably act better). Jay cant really act as usual; I preferred him in "Curse of the Golden Flower". The storyline for "Secret" is cool, some time travel thingy which was SO unforeseen. I thot it will be like a deja vu from the movie "Shutter" but apparently the plot proved otherwise. Despite some unanswered qns after the movie, I thot it was an ok, yet ambitious attempt to pull off the time-travel thingy. The best (and probably only good) time travel flick I watched was "Back to the Future", if Im not wrong.

I think there's another show I watched but I cant really remember. O well. Will update again
