Movies that are good, n erm..incomprehensible

I've watched a couple of movies these two weeks. Six to be exact. Out of which i truly enjoyed only three, i.e. Get Smart, 21 and Made of Honor. Get Smart is a very lame yet super funny movie. I mean considering the lead is Steve Carell, how can it be not funny??!!

The next one that i really liked was 21. The lead actress is super hot! I feel she has some resemblance to Jennifer Garner. N she dresses up differently in every casino scene. Feels like Alias eh? The lead actor on the other hand...hmmm....sometimes he looks cute, sometimes he doesn't.*sigh* Anyway this movie will be out in malaysia soon.=)

And finally, Made of Honor! A part of the movie was shot in Scotland! My housemates, n obviously me, got all excited when we saw how beautiful Scotland is. And the main guy, patrick dempsey, wore a mini kilt in the movie. Oooo...sexy legs...=D So, here's hoping that i will not fail my exam and will make it to scotland in another..ELEVEN MONTHS!!

This post is rather plain without pictures. So i went searching for the posters..=P




The following three movies. I was more of erm..confounded by what they are trying to convey. Paris Je T'aime was still all right. In fact, i kinda like it. N love some of it.

In case u're wondering, i said i love some of it cuz this movie consists of 18 short films. Thanks to li who explained what was happening as the movie progressed. Im downright sure that I won't understand a whole lot of it if she wasn't around. By the way, source of this movie: liyana.

The Happening, which is also the first movie i watched after coming back to m'sia, seem to hold very deeeeep meaning. I understand it as the world is sick, we have to do our part to save it. Am i right? Anyway i don't think there's a right or wrong for what i understand from the movie. After all, a movie from M. Night Shymalan always embraces multifaceted complex meaning.

N finally, the movie i watched today. In Bruges starring Colin Farrell. It's a 2008 movie which i don't think is shown in malaysia. I was initially attracted by its high rating in imdb. And hence asked ken to download it for me. Watched it, and pondered for many many seconds why it has such high ratings. Well, perhaps i didn't like it cuz i couldn't catch some of their conversation due to the strong accent.

Anyway sth 'interesting' in the movie. A prostitute from Amsterdam went to Bruges and had *** with a midget. Apparently she can get higher price for her p**** in Bruges compared to in Amsterdam. LOL.

P/s: Bruges is a place in Belgium.

Let’s Get Mobile!

tulan.

lately i’ve been involved with incidents that have got to do with cars. damn cars. convenient yet a burden.

just yesterday evenin, when i was ready to leave my workplace, the car remote’s battery decided to die on me. it was almost 7pm and luckily there was a grocery shop some distance away from my office which decided to stay open for business longer than usual.

this mornin, i woke up to a new day, feelin champion. on my way to work, while waitin at a traffic light near tesco extra shah alam, a malay girl in a kelisa kissed my car’s ass. so much for feelin champion. noticin that there were no damage except for a few abrasive marks, i decided to release her out of sympathy.

lunch time came in the blink of an eye. i’m determined to change the radiator’s coolant due to the fact that my family will be comin down to kl this weekend. another mistake! it took them almost 2 hours to replace the radiator bolt and coolant, just because they had to order the bolt from elsewhere. there was a mistake in bolt size for the first delivery, which took more than 30 minutes to arrive. what more to say about the next.

on the other hand, barghers.com is now wap-ready! we are now accessible via wap on mobile phones, with readiness, size, time and cost in mind.

Dinner at Rendezvous

hey all,

I have been wanting to blog something…just couldnt find the right time and the right mood to do so. But here I am with one of those moments.

Last saturday (21june), my aunty asked me out for dinner at a hotel she stayed called Rendezvous located along Flinders Street (in the Melbourne CBD). haha first, to clarify about my ‘aunty’ which I have never used this term to acknowledge unless I need to explain to ppl who I was meeting.

Well, she is an air-hostess for SQ(singapore Airlines) and has flown with them for 11 years !! i cant imagine myself sticking to a company for 11 years….So this year, she is just 32 years old and doesnt look like my aunty at all (my mom’s side just incase, it made you wonder). So i ordered lamb rump, it was alright, i have tasted better but the ambiance and company surpassed the taste. And I am thankful that she treated me :D hahaha. here’s some pictures.

Our main-course dinner:

yes people, I have gained weight !! (it’s winter….) and she is terribly thin (say, 40kg)?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Le dessert ! called semifreddo…that’s a new word to learn.

So that’s all for now.~

Not one moment, I have not been missing my dear barghers pursuing dreams all around the world.

smokers, here’s to ya :)

Humpty Dumpty Missed His Great Fall

as the newly elected president for foochow association of klang, my uncle was granted 2 tables in last night’s agm dinner (at least i think it was an agm dinner). all my relatives in selangor made their appearance, except amos’ family.

alot of chitchat and catchin up happened, and what i saw on the menu put a smile on my face. haven’t been back to sitiawan for 10 weeks, i’ve already missed the food, and seein dishes like foochow’s specialty fishball and longevity noodles made me feel like home again… at least for a while.

at the beginnin of the event, we were entertained with 2 songs by this real lala auntie, dressed in a fully glitter-ish shirt. as if that wasn’t enough, she started singin in that high pitch gibberish voice, which i couldn’t get a single mandarin word she sang. even my chinese educated cousins have no idea!

when the torturin moment was finally over, i scoop a bowl of the fishball soup, and tried the fishball. nah, it’s nowhere near to what my granda made, but if you have never try a home-made foochow fishball, then you’ll find this absolutely delicious. knowin that the first dish was already that bad, my cousins and i started havin doubts on the followin dishes.

next on the menu was shark fin soup. my cousin said “how bad can shark fin soup be? there’s no way they could screw that up.” that’s where she was wrong =) the so-called shark fin soup tasted chicken-ish, which was absolutely horrible. the only dishes edible that night was the longevity noodles in kolo mee style. funny, i always thought longevity noodles are the noodles used in red wine noodles.

as i forgot to mention, at the start of the dinner, each table was entitled 10 coupons for a lucky draw event throughout the night. who will stand a chance to win those awesome hampers? let’s find out.

forgive me for the blurry image, as it was taken with my phone’s camera

as the night proceeds, the size of the prize hampers gets bigger and bigger. when it came to the last hamper for that night, a familar lucky draw number was called out. when it was repeatedly called, my shark fin soup cousin realized that the number called belonged to my youngest cousin, who was busy playin games on his dad’s mobile set!

hurryin up the stage, the little one was excited and thrilled to be able to win the largest hamper for the night. not like he knows what is it anyway. things turned hilarious when he was supposed to hold the hamper for photo session on the stage. he was seen imbalance tryin to lift a hamper almost his own size! luckily, my uncle (the one mentioned in the first sentence of this post) helped him to hold the hamper on stage.

the hamper won was as tall as his neck

in fact, instead of bein a good cousin and rush up to help him carry, i sat on my chair laughin with the rest of my relatives, while another cousin of mine went to his rescue. the event finally ended at 10 somethin.
