TV shows

Just finished another episode of LOST (season 4 episode 2), and i'm glad that the plot is moving. After being stuck on the island and just expounding on the Others in season 3, finally, the story is moving on.
A new angle is introduced, and the same intriguing 'omg what on earth is going on' feeling is left behind after the episode ends with another trademark cliffhanger.

I'm still a huge fan of LOST and Prison Break, despite what a majority of the viewers are saying. Many people I know have given up on LOST, themselves getting lost in the plot somewhere in season 2 or 3. I don't think the plot is particularly confusing, as many of them say, but intriguing is a more fitting description.
There is alot to keep track of, definitely, but that's what makes the series such a hooker. It keeps you hooked - to get more answers.. only to introduce new perplexing mysteries.

Prison Break has gotten slightly draggy in its 3rd season, but the latest episode was a ridiculously irritating cliffhanger which just leaves you going 'COME ON! there has to be 5 minutes more!'.
Although the show is still kept as exciting as possible, it is impossible to match the first season's intenseness, wittiness or heartracing-ness. That's the sad thing about making too good a season - there is the pressure to match it, and the chances are you won't be able to do it.
Prison Break needs to answer some of the questions it has left though, like who on earth is Susan and James Whistler and what are they working for? Unlike LOST where new questions are brought in almost every episode, Prison Break lacks the luxury of diversity and are hence stuck on the same questions that are repeated every episode such that it's starting to get irritating.


Ugh, gonna be away for 2 weeks so.. ill be watching 2 episodes each when i come back =)

Tomorrow's gonna be fun! Gonna spend the day with amanda, and will be hoping to take alot of pictures so that i can post them here. What are we doing? Not telling! Come back tomorrow night and see :p
chowz!

p.s.
btw, i just got into top 500 in warcraft on Bnet US West =)


woot. now for top 300. then top 100. then top 10. ahhaha.

guo xin nian

ah, as i bask in the freedom of.. freedom and sit back comfortably in my computer chair not expecting a 'HEADS OUT' from the commanders downstairs or checking the time to countdown the minutes to lights out, i can't help but smile.

chinese new year brings great joy to kids who anticipate the numerous hongbaos they're gonna get, unhappiness to married couples who have to fork out those numerous hongbaos, and elation for NSF who get the much appreciated break from army.
of course, those who have guard duty and field camp are exempted from the elation.

i look forward to saturday when i'll be meeting amanda and spending the day with her, but at the same time i don't as the next day will be sunday and that will be when i have to book in. it's like the last meal of a criminal on death row - he looks forward to it and not.
ah, that was quite an extreme analogy wasn't it? well i'll be stuck in Tekong for 2 weeks after booking in, due to my field camp which starts on the 15th, the very same day that is rumoured that the 'A' level results would come out.

ah, the dream of walking back to school with amanda's hand in mine is quickly shattered and relegated to just that - a dream.

IPPT is next week too, and if i fail that, i'll have to stay in the subsequent weekend after fieldcamp for extra training -_- i honestly doubt i'll fail unless i get a cramp while running or injure myself or something. I should have no worries then? No, what if i get a cramp while running or injure myself? As long as there's a possibility of failure, there's an inkling of worry.


oh well, i shall isolate myself from army the next few days, albeit running to train up myself at night. after all, the moments of civilian-hood are limited and short, and i should enjoy every second of it. time is even more precious than before, more precious that money, more precious than anything.

If only time could come to a standstill when we want it to. -cue ChronoGuard from Jasper Fforde's books -

(Go check out some of his books if you haven't. i wouldn't describe them as 'logical nonsense' as amanda does (and apparently weiqin does too).. more of a mystery/thriller in an unreal world)

Happy Chinese New Year to all.
