thank God from whom all blessings flow!

week four of holidays comes to an end... and in random order:

1) i've gotten hooked onto singapore idol. i watch it every week. but that's where it stops ok. anyway, it's very unlike me i know but such things can't be rationalised anyway. go hady!! heh heh. and jonathan... and well, jasmine. she has really really improved a lot.

2) i've been catching up on movies, making my membership worth... since last month, i've watched le grand voyage, harry potter and the goblet of fire, batman begins, rouge (starring leslie cheung & anita mui), i do, i do, sympathy for lady vengeance, king kong, forever fever, the manchurian candidate, runaway jury, mystic river, election 2 and the chronicles of narnia: the lion, the witch and the wardrobe. all were pretty good except that sympathy and election 2 were kinda disturbing too. oh well.

3) i just joined borders' mailing list a couple of days ago when i was at the store. it's pretty cool; they email you info on the latest stuff they have, their recommendations, newsletter and DISCOUNT COUPONS. :)

4) i bought a macbook from my school coz it was a good deal and should be able to last me for a long time. that's the most important thing. quality + durability + reliability. edit: ha! i almost forgot to add that the price has to be ultra reasonable too. it hasn't come yet though. i'm excited yet a bit apprehensive about going over to the other side. what if i become an apple fanatic like mr tann (who was the one who told me about the deal in the first place of course)?

5) i visited my friend in johor bahru and stayed with her from sunday to tuesday. it was a nice little holiday, i had kaya toast for breakfast every morning :D and i also learnt a lot about Christian living from her.

6) the4ofus had a successful sleepover at my place from wed to thurs. we hardly slept though. first we watched singapore idol (yes, my idea), then CSI: miami (cool show!), then we started work on our scrapbook, which was inspired by the movie divine secrets of the ya-ya sisterhood which we watched together some years back, plus we had a belated birthday celebration for yi lin (i'm sure we won't run out of ideas for surprises, guys!). all through the night we were printing, cutting and pasting pictures of us, from our cute geeky sec one days to present time. many pages left for more things to come! uni, marriage, kids... ha ha. thank God for such wonderful friends.
