1st post of 2005

this will be my 1st post of 2005 and its already the 3rd day of the new year. lazy bugger me.

well, how have your new year been so far?
did not really do a countdown to the new year on the eve. was sort of driving around looking for a nice place. let me tell you this. changi beach, if you park at the 1st car park and you take a short walk down the beach park, you will actually come to this part where the airplanes literally flies over you. i mean you can see the underside of the planes and the noise generated by them birds is really really loud.

then i met up with an old friend on new year's day. she brought me to this really nice, new place at bishan park. aahhh... i found a new reading place. its cool and its chill.
well, i was being a doom bringer again when i met her, since i met her good news with a bunch of cynical stories and uncalled for advice. who am i to say and advise anyway?
i was being a pain again.
i do hope that the new place stays open for quite a bit. it was rather empty when we were there and i am worried if it would have enough biz to sustain it for a while. i need a new place to read.


i spent the whole of yesterday lazing at home. it was raining heavily and it was a good plan indeed. watched 'turn left, turn right' again on the vcd. laughed lots and cried a tears because it was such a good story. being so close and yet so far.
i got the book that it is based on. it is a illustrated book and its in chinese. the movie stuck very closely to the idea behind the whole book. of course, there were lots of new scenes, all put in to increase the dramatic effect of the whole movie.
so close, yet so far away... which incidentally, is a song by hall & oates.

all the best for the new year now!
may all your dreams and wishes come true and may you keep to your resolutions.
