My 19th Birthday

Yesterday was a well spent day for me. I went to Times Square with my old school mates: Zhong Yao, Nam Yen, Yong Sing and Jian Shi. After hearing so many people bragging about the latest transformer movie, we finally went to watch it yesterday.


Transformers Revenge of The Fallen


We went to GSC cinema at Times Square to watch the movie. It was a good decision for us to watch it at later as by the time we went to watch it, all the hype about that movie has almost subsided. When we entered the cinema room, the room was so empty that it felt like GSC is losing business. Only a few people were in the room when we went in there at 1.40 p.m. The room was so empty that we can choose wherever we want to sit regardless of the sit number assigned to our tickets. Nobody is following the rules anymore. Some strangers even sat on the seats that we have booked earlier.


After watching the sequel, I would say that the movie improved a lot during the second release.
Compared to the first one,


1.) The babes are hotter



Megan Fox


Don't be fooled by her appearance. This girl is actually a decepticon.


2.) Optimus Prime is back with more firepower and stronger than ever.

Sam! We need your help!


Come On!!! I'll take on all of you!!!

3.) There are new characters



Jetfire. An old decepticon who has turn sides. He is now an autobot

He's literally very old. Look! He's even using a walking stick


4.) The Bad guys are back. Bigger, Badder, Meaner and Uglier!!!



The Fallen


Starscream

Devastor. Made from a combination of several decepticons


5.) You can watch the old version of the autobots and decepticons



The heaven of autobots. In the background are the "Primes". They are the ancestors of the autobots.


After watching the movie, I was suprised that "The Star" only gave the movie a rating of 3/5.
At first, I even thought of watching Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince. Luckily we didn't. Being a boy who likes action-packed films with robots and explosions, I would give this movie a rating of 4/5.


During the movie, I also "curi-curi" took some photos with my handphone. I didn't manage to take some good photos though because I was too enthralled by the movie. The movie was just too fascinating to be doing other things that would risk missing out the good parts. Plus, I was afraid that later I would get apprehended by the security on my way out. Don't forget my pathetic phone camera only has 0.3 megapixel.









After watching the movie, we went to Sungei Wang to have lunch. Not sure where to eat, we decided to dine at U-Village. You'll be able to spot it at the alley which borders Sg Wang and Low Yat. The place is usually packed with customers when we go there. So, we assume that the food is also good.

I ordered BBQ Pork Rice with Salted Egg and a plate of fried prawn dumplings.


The "Char Siew" was very smooth and succulent. The skin was not too scorced, and was just nice and crispy. The best "Char Siew" I've ever eaten.


Only remembered to take photo just before finishing it.


Damn big shrimp and lots of fillings inside.
One comment: The food is very satisfying and the price is very reasonable. I will definitely visit that place again.
After lunch, we proceeded to go shopping at Low Yat before going home. I bought myself a stack of CD-R before going home.




I also got a present from Jian Shi, Xinzi and Yan Siong.

A blue Hush Puppy Shirt


= =! Cute dog.....

Anyway, I love that shirt. Thanks for the present.

Sorry that I miss your birthday, I don't even know about it until I saw this post. Happy birthday to you.

I'm also sorry that I failed to fulfill my promise of watching Transformer 2 with you all.

I rarely watch movies in cinemas. In my whole life, I only been to the cinema 4 times.

Most of the time I watch movies at home, either from Astro or those I downloaded from the internet, I rather enjoy the facilities at home, pause or replay anytime, nice subtitles, no censor, on my 37 inch screen with adequate stereo sound system.

I advice you better not to take any photo or video in the cinema, I bet you know about the consequences. Such an act is a criminal offence, and it's well enforced, they use night vision to see any person is committing such an act. Glad to see that you are safe without any arrest, not during your birthday.

I know that "girl" can transform, I saw a post on the internet, they say the few seconds of transformation scene took about months to complete.

Long time never went to Sungei Wang too, but I occasionally went to Low Yat plaza. Esquire kitchen anyone?

Anyway, glad to see that you enjoyed your birthday.
