Why Would I Write

  • The return of the lamb.

    I had a two dreams last night.

    First dream-
    I went to church. There was a cell group meeting going on and when I went into the room and sat down, all the people in my cell started whispering to one another. And then suddenly, one person started clapping, and then the whole room followed. It was like a miracle had happened or something. Then I woke up from my dream and thought, ‘hey! maybe it’s a sign to go to church’. I checked the time- it was 11. I was late. Then I went back to sleep.

    Second dream-
    This one was pretty stupid. It was so random. It started out at work, and I got a call from Alvin and the IMU bunch to go play DOTA at some cybercafe nearby. I tried to start my car and it wouldn’t start cos it was on all night playing music. Somehow in my dream I confused the music coming from my pc was coming from the car instead :p After that, when I reached the cafe and was looking for parking, my car somehow folded up into some pocket sized thing and I was carrying it in my hand looking for a cheap car park. And then I don’t remember what happened after that and I woke up.

  • Movies worth watching.

    So this is just a filler post, haven’t come up with anything substantial 😛
    but anyway, recently I’ve been watching a few movies and here are my opinions on them:

    Cloverfield : This movie should have been titled: NOKIA. Haha..anyways I thought it was over-hyped. Not a bad film by any means, but I really expected much more after hearing about so much about it. I loved the whole concept and idea, and thought it was shot really well at the beginning (Beth..mmmm), but towards the end it got a bit boring for me. 6.5/10

    John Rambo : 2 words- fucking violent. Definitely not for people with weak stomachs. But if you can stand the gore (like me) then it is a truly enjoyable movie. Action packed, though quite short and the way the last battle ended seemed pretty weak. But definitely worth re-watching on DVD. 8/10

    Meet the Spartans : funny from the beginning to end (literally– stay after the credits, LOADS of extra footage). Some semblance of a story line (the 300), and loads of modern pop culture references. So if you’re not up to date on what’s going on in Hollywood and the internet you probably won’t get quite alot of the jokes (like almost half of the screening room I was in- hardly anybody laughed at the youtube part for some reason!) loads of great gags, though I thought the dance-off was too long. 7/10 just cos it kept my sides splitting from start to finish.

    Sweeny Todd : I’m a sucker for musicals. I don’t think I’ve ever disliked a movie musical that I’ve watched so far. Sweeny Todd is no exception. Right from the beginning all the way till the dramatic finale I enjoyed every bit. Great style, art direction and even vocal performances. I didn’t expect the twist at the end either. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp should just get married and keep making movies together. 9/10.

    Okay that wasn’t too many movies..but may my post be somehow useful in someway to somebody!

  • Take pipes, take aim

    So the other day I was taking a leak at some public toilet and I heard this man say to his son, “Aim at the fox!”. But the creature in the urinal was a frog! So I thought that it was funny he mispronounced ‘frog’ or he really thought it was a fox. And if his son grows up calling a frog a fox, that would be pretty funny too.

    Don’t you hate it when you use a public urinal and find piss all over the floor next to the urinals? So the other day I devised a machine which would solve the problem which the little aiming frogs couldn’t-

    Basically it is a larger basin under the main urinal which collects urine that manages to miss the main basin and pumps it up to a cannon aimed at the user’s face. I think a few sprays of your own piss to your face is enough to deter you from future carelessness. (Unless you’re the sort of person who’s into that sort of thing, then it’s a win-win situation anyway).
