Went to watch X Men today. And... well... is really not my type of show. Seriously, what's the joy when everyone knows the ending? That good-triumph-over-evil plot is getting old.

I am near to slumber in the cinema until a terrible couple sitting besides us begin to stir things up. They are really @#&@^!*.

Anyway.. this is what really happen..

Today... I went to have lunch with my grandaunt and my counsins... rather unwillingly. My grandaunt just came here from toronto so I am kind of obliged to have the meal with her.

OK.. then we went for a movie. There's me, my cousins and my brother. And then the freaking couple who were sitting close to the aisle started their vulgarity ram at my cousins and brother because they need to pass by them to go to the loo. (Seriously, what's wrong?)

ANd I.. have the daunting task of sitting besides them. Apparently, my brother accidentally kicked the woman's flip flop and she fumed. She started saying fu*king hell... lack of education... etc. etc.. (Like my brother can hear them when he sit so far inside.)

I am really pissed since they were raising their voices like it's n-o-n of anyone's business. I just turned and APOLOGISED. (You know.. normally it works..)

Me: Ok. I am sorry. That's my brother and I don't think he done that on purpose.

Woman: Can you pick up my shoe? (is a flip flop) Your bloody brother kick it so far away.

Me: (Take the flip flop.. damn.. I have the urge to throw it in her face.. and there they were still making a big fuss) I am sorry. (Yeah right)

Basically.. I try to ignore them.. but they started having a conversation between themselves when in fact it's for US to hear..

Woman: People no education. Kids.

Man: Never go to school. Don't know how to behave. School never teach.

I can't help it.. I sniggered.

Man: People cannot understand English. (Then started speaking mandarin in Singapore style) Ta men ting bu dong ying yu, yau jiang hua wen. (Trans: They can't understand English, got to speak mandarin.)

HAHA. Damn. If I can still stand those dispparaging comments, that would make me a saint. So... well.. I just turned and said...

"Sorry. I am not a local and I can't understand what you are saying. Anyway, we have apologized. (Get over it!) Can you please concentrate on your show?"

I have a tough time controlling this time. Really.. I don't wanna make a fuss over some teeny weeny stuff. It just makes me similar to them if I do that, right?

Anyway... they continue "making conversations" though in a lower voice. I couldn't care less. I must admit that the thought of shaking the guy's hand to congratulate on how noble he is to endure such a girlfriend did once cross my mind. (Less victims to fall under her prey you see? Though the guy is not a lot better.)

Still, kinda glad that they make a dash for the exit before the credit comes out. Ha.. so I could turn and tell my brother and cousins something I hold back for the whole show.

Erm...

nevermind is just a Cantonese slur.

Isn't there such a saying? The older people grow, the more nostalgic they become?

It's like beginning to live in the past. Older people always have this syndrome. Those in their twilight years. It's not that hard to understand... since there must be a point in life when you realize that the future is nothing but a route to the inevitable - Death.

I mean.. that's when people begin to look back. That's when the future is no longer a valid path.

Erm.. why am I saying this?

Seriously, I have no idea. It's just a random thought. But that doesnt mean people our age don't look back in the past. I believe it's a form of escape. It's like telling yourself about the better times so you can forget about now.

Dwelling in the past and showing contempt to the current situation. Maybe.. everyone do that. But then again... guess everyone just accepts that. It's just parts and parcels of life.

But why?

Why just accept that? Is it neccessarily preordained?

There must be something we can do if we want to. The question is.. how much are you willing to do to get there?

....

GOSH. HELP.

The weather is so freaking HOT!

What is wrong with it?!

Have you heard about the phrase "a train of thoughts"?

When I think of the word "weather", the train goes moving on my mental tracks.

The first related word that comes to mind is UNBEARABLE. INTOLERABLE. (er.. whatever.. it is just DAMN HOT!)

And then I think about going on the offensive

Right. This means I bought a fan that resembles a turbo engine.

So basically..

I on the turbo fan AND the air conditioner (on powerful mode) at night. PLUS a mini fan to cool off my CPU from the outside.

I know this is not economical. But this is an emergency and you NEED emergency measures.

Then... the third thought that comes to mind is... if there is really a next life, PLEASE make me live in Iceland. I would rather see tropical countries as exotic.

ARGH. HOT.

I was reading the Times Magazine for this week..

And then.. I saw the new interface design Nintendo had for their game controller - Nintendo Revolution Controller

So... it is designed and targeted at those who DON'T play video games. They reckon the usual design is "too complex" for those who hate gaming.

The magazine says, "It's too hard for them. Like homework hard."

It looks like a wireless TV remote that sense the movement of your hand. (Alright.. I think it sounds weird. But it's "revolutionary" you know...)

So if you are playing Mario, you just move your hand up and down to jump. If you are playing sword fighting, you just jerk your controller front and back.

That's the idea... same for tennis, shooting, walking your dog (for the galz.. thaz so discriminatory.. why walking dogs?!) etc...

An advertisement for the controller... (weird...)

Advertisement for Nintendo Revolution Controller

Well.. it does feel like someone changing the QWERTY keyboard back to an ABC keyboard.

Who knows? It might work.

I am done with exam

And I am so DONE FOR it too..

Well.. but worries are for later...

Right now... I am so over the moon....

Heeheeeeee

Anyone going somewhere to have fun?

Ask me! Ask me!!!!!
