- 戊子年大年初一 -

Firstly, I would like to wish all of you 鼠年行大运,身体健康,万事如意, 心想事成。Huat ah!!!!

A typical 大年初一, everyone will b visiting relatives and all busy 拜年-ing. But for me, tis is the 2nd year that its Home Resting time. No visiting on the 1st day. Usually ppl will visit their grandparents on the 1st day. But for me, my ah gong and ah ma have already passed away. Wats left is my 爷爷 and 奶奶 BUT!! Due to some circumstances, we will not visit them. Some of you might think that its 不孝, but for those who noe what they have done to us. U all will noe wats happening~ :D

For this 大年初一, I actually watched 2 MOVIES!!! 2 贺岁电影 in 1 Day... LoL~~

They are《老师家老大》&《功夫灌篮》!!!

《老师家老大》

Cast: Fann Wong, Mark Lee
Director: Jack Neo
Genre:Comedy/ Drama
Language: Mandarin
Release Date:7 February 2008

Ah Long Pte Ltd is a light-hearted black comedy about the triad world and the money-lending business. The movie takes on a humorous and sarcastic treatment on the underworld. It depicts how a young lady, Li Hua (Fann Wong) tries to restructure her money-lending triad into a professional and 'loving' triad that stands against the use of violence after she takes over from her triad leader (Richard Low) who retired. Her various restructuring plans (which are no doubt very creative) bring about hilarious results.

Li Hua tired of her mother's constant nagging to get married, she finally relented and proposed to Mr Fang (Mark Lee), an effeminate dance instructor cum image stylist. Surprised to many and even herself, Mr Fang accepted the proposal. The unusual union, despite the misfits, soon blossom into love.


This show its very Singapore and very Jack Neo, nothing new. Jokes are as expected, not really funny thou... The only funny part is the always ask the ahneh come out use his indian accent say a few sentences, den he will start mumbling in Tamil. =__="

I even fell asleep towards the ending. Seldom will i sleep while watching movie, but tis show did it! No wonder it has bad ratings!! This show, u definitely can give it a MISS!
Rating: 1/5


2nd Show for the day is
《功夫灌篮》


As i have already add in some synopsis in my previous post, i will not post it here..

This show did not let me down!!! Enjoyed it very much, every bit of it. Pace is cool, juz nice. Effects and everything is Good. There are funny times, emotional times and comical times... The theme song 《周大侠》totally blends right into the show seamlessly. Jay's acting improved in this show. Really enjoyed it and so did those ppl in the same cinema as me! This is the movie u CANT MISS!
Rating: 4/5

Sadly, I haven watch CJ7. Would catch it one of these days, or during the weekend.

TMR will be a busy day!! Morning need to prepare for 开年, den follow by a series of visiting. From Seng Kang to Hougang to Serangoon and finally back to Woodlands~ LoL....

P/S: For those who wanna listen to 《周大侠》, its already in my playlist. Enjoy!!!

- 《功夫灌篮》Kung Fu Dunk -


Cast: Jay Chou, Charlene Choi, Chen Bo Lin
Director: Kevin Chu
Genre:Action/ Drama
Language: Mandarin
Release Date:7 February 2008

Shi-Jie (Jay Chou) is a brilliant martial artist from the Kungfu School. The master of the school adopted him as a baby, when he was found abandoned in the woods. His remarkable kungfu skills stem from his innate intuition and ability to read his opponents moves. One day, he encounters a group of youths playing basketball and shows off how easy it is for him, with his martial arts training, to do a Slam Dunk. Watching him was Chen-Li (Eric Tsang), a shrewd businessman, who decides that he would exploit Shi-Jie to make some money. Under the guise of helping Shi-Jie to find his family, he recruits him to play varsity basketball at the local university.

- Reporter under pressure to change the subject title and content??? -
"6 in 10 new jobs go to foreigners" to "S'pore adds record number of jobs in 2007, a third filled by foreigners" to "S'poreans and foreigners gain from job boom"

I really find it alarming that such things are happening... Shouldn't reporter report the truth?

Before:


After:


Now:


Reporters get F9 for maths or wat?

How can "6 out of 10 jobs go to foreigner" change to "a third filled by foreigners"???

1st report clearly states that 60% of jobs goes to Foreigners, and Singaporeans only get 40% of the jobs.

2nd report stats "a third filled by foreigners". A third is 33.3% which means Singaporeans gets 66.7% of the jobs.

2 questions:
Where they get their stats from?
How can we trust anymore reports from ST?

This is the statistics by ahgong_hippo of EDMW

New jobs
: 236,600

Local vs Foreigner: 92,100 vs 144,500

or 38.9% vs 61.1%

6/10 new jobs went to foreigners.

But with creativity, we have,

Total workforce : 2,700,000

Local vs Foreigners: 1,799,200 vs 900,800

or 66.6% (hey 66.6% again!) vs 33.4%

1/3 filled by foreigners.



More Good Years ahead!!!

- It doesn't pay to be Kind -

Last nite is already a very horrible nite but to add on to make it worse, i receive tis sms and i was quites shock to see it... it goes
"In future, pls dont tell j bout superstitious things about my zodiac. Feng Shui is not supposed to be superstitious. Sometimes circumstances will force u to attend funeral n tis is something beyond one control. We cannot never forever live in fear avoiding everything"

Firstly, what has Fengshui gotta do wif Zodiac, Nothing!
Secondly, I know that for the Year of the Cow, certain animals is better to avoid attending funerals, so i juz let j noe about it. Whether to go or not, the ultimate decision is made by you.

I replied:
"From now on, i wun say le. Its out of concern. Its up to individual. Its always out of concern, but it turns out that ppl dun really appreciate. That time KC fridge incident also. I m so disappointed."

2nd sms goes like tis:
"I know u r concern but at work sometimes we hv no choice. Its like if u cannot get involved then wat if its ur grandparents, dont tell me u oso like tt. Superstitious sometimes 会害人. Yrs ago blah blah..." Say i should not tell J, he is her S, he cares for her but now her boss's dad KKK, how? "J keeps telling me not to go.
"Our v close collegue oso dying anytime how. Life cannot forever avoid all these unless u r lone ranger. Put me in ur shoes. What will u do. Hope u understand."


Sometimes haf no choice is 1 thing. But put it tis way. Wat if something really happens after that?
If u tell ppl u cant attend funeral, they will understand. My friend's parents or grandparents are also leaving so? how? Can go i go, cant go i juz giv "Pek Kim". Its not like forever u cannot attend, juz tis one year and it HAVEN START TILL NEXT THURSDAY!!!
I m also half ur S, but i dunno lar, at least I treat u like my M. Seriously lar, such things I noe, I say, whether or not u wanna listen its up to individual. But from now on, I WILL NOT SAY.... At least only for my family to noe...

Really disappointed....
What else can i say?
