Rough Paper
First day of exams. First paper of the last semester. The beginning of the end.
And I screwed up by not studying everything like I should and listened to some half-ass tip. Cost me 13 marks coz I had to leave it blank. I mean, ok, so this paper is based on how well you bullshit but I need facts to work on my bullshit. And I didn't study that entire topic so what d'ya know? No facts = No bullshit. Well, no *good* bullshit anyway. :P
And the rest, well, let's just say I got enough bullshit to cover the 3/4 of the island--I mean paper. Hope that counts for something.

Minor Spoilers: Street Kings
So the 1st paper was a morning paper and we ended around 11am. Me and lz went to have lunch at the temporary Chinatown market near Outram Park MRT (yummy almond paste that is not too sickeningly artificial and sweet) and caught a movie at The Cathay at Handy Road.
Couldn't quite decide which show to watch based on 8days, so we went down to The Cathay and see what they have. Robert Downey Jr. as Ironman? Sadly, not out yet (but the trailer looks good~~ *drool*). 2 sisters vying for the queen spot beside King Eric Bana? No thank you from both of us. A father telling his daughter about the 3 women in his life and making her guess which is her mother? Boring~, says lz. Louis Koo as the next kingpin? I say "Gods no". Story about cops *and* Hugh Laurie? Oh yay! Lz likes cop movies too. So we bought tix for Street Kings.
And now, without giving too much away...
It could be because I finished 4 seasons of Stargate Atlantis in less than a week but the whole time, all I could think of was how the right-side profile of Keanu Reeves looks like Joe Flanigan. With not so great hair and even worse shirts. ((Joe Flanigan's got great hair and great uniform/shirts in SGA =3))
Sucre! I mean, Amaury Nolasco is in there too. Nice to see him again. Which reminds me, I should really catch up on Prison Break. Kinda didn't wanna continue around season 2 midway.
The first scene Hugh Laurie appears in is in the ER, pulling open the curtain and announcing his unwanted presence loudly. And by saying he's an insurance salesman but we all know he is not. Again, all I can think of was "House, meet cop!House". Just less snarky. Oh and more vulgarities too. Lotsa f*** being tossed around. And Whitaker calls him "Jimmy" in one scene. Lol!!! The camera angle is not too flattering for him in this movie though.
The last bit of Forest Whitaker with the crown speech is Last King of Scotland all over again. Even though I've never actually watched LKoS but yea... the vibe is there. Lol...
(Edit: Forgot to mention Chris Evans earlier. He's a McGee--a leaner, better looking McGee. Probie-rank, new to the job, eager to proof himself and that haircut totally fits... :P)
It's a rather drawn-out affair, Street Kings. Me and lz were both like... "gods, when will this get to the exciting part? Or even better, end???" Story's good but pacing's off. All in all, tolerable.

Idiot Kids
And so, after the conclusion of the movie, we were dog tired and went home separately (duh). So I waited for the bus and fell asleep on the bus all the way home. Was raining and got off the bus to a crowded bus stop. As my stop is at TPJC, there are naturally a buncha JC kids around. So I made my way across, moving out of the way as much as I can when I saw this girl in particular, talking animately with her friend and not looking in my general direction (basically she had her head turned away from me). I made an extra large effort to siam her coz I have a feeling something's gonna happen that involves her. So, effort--any larger and I would be out on the road being drenched. I left like an arm's length of space between the two of us and stupidly thinking that I'm safe, I crossed. And she took this exact moment to point at something across the road to her friend. And we ended up with her finger on my right cheekbone--exactly an arm's length away.
LIKE WTF!?!?!?! I KNEW SOMETHING IS GONNA HAPPEN AND I MADE AN EFFORT TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING AND STILL, SUCH SHIT HAPPENED. WTF DO THEY TEACH JC KIDS NOWADAYS ANYWAY??? HOW TO POKE PEOPLE IN THE FACE WHILE TALKING IN A CROWDED BUS STOP????? GODS!!!!! OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!! IF NOT FOR THE WHOLE SITUATION BEING SO FUCKING HILARIOUS, I WOULD FUCKING KILL YOU. I KNOW WHERE YOU STUDY. ¬___¬
Ahem. So, I'm pretty sure everyone's dead on the floor laughing right now. I just hope my cheekbone don't bruise. That's gotta suck. Finger-shaped bruise on cheek. Hmm...
