@ Lower Pierce Reservior

Saturday, a day to rest. It has been a busy week for me at work. With the ending of Financial Yr, I have to assure that all purchases and project invoices are to be cleared within a certain period of time.... Even then, some could not make it in time, all thanks to vendor whom had missed out on my purchase order.. All sorts of excuses started coming out. Anyway, what can I do, all is closed now...Those that could not make it in time will have to deliver the items next financial yr then...and I have much to explain to my management. Sometime I wondered whose fault it is ? Me or them ? Failure on me to supervise ? Nahhh....I did chased them almost every week for the items in invoices and they kept ignoring my calls and email...So I guess, its them then....

Anyway, enuf of the werk stuff.

Today, after sending wifey to werk, I had planned to enter across border to have my car cleaned up or even having it polished..But was stopped by the massive JAM information which I got from the Skycam... So, I decided to take a drive to Thomson area to have breakfast @ The PRATA Shop and have my all time fav. Chicken Floss prata...but not before stopping by Lower Pierce Reservior to take a shot or two for my collection.

*chech ! like real only*

ACADEMY's AWARD

It has been 2yrs plus since I was posted out of my previous unit..and how time flies. I can still remember having moved into the new premises and only to start planning everything from scratch and without much assistance... I was all alone then.

Those sleepless nights, unexpected occurance, downtime and blah blah blah ... still playing in my head. The worst was over so I thought....

Anyway, enuf on the flashback. Come 20th March 08, my currently unit will be having our 1st awards nite to award the deserving with the neccessary awards ....

Unlike my previous unit, this is a much smaller scale event with nothing to shout about...but nevertheless the intention was gud and that I hope everyone will have a blast of a time.

Cheers !

The Outsider ........

Sitting all alone in my living room, while my little dragonoid was asleep, I began flipping those yesteryears albums and one album in particular put a smile on my face.
It was an album filled with memorable photos during my Sec School , Sec 4 & 5 in particular.

Those were probably the best time of my secondary life. There were a total of 7 Sec 4 & 5 classes.I was in class 4/7 and subsequently 5/7 ... Sounded like the last class huh ?? hhmmm...But it was not to be..We were the only group of students who took Literature for N & O levels and was so called the best class in that level. While my other friend were busy with their Arts and Techinical projects, me and my buddy (Ashikid) juz laze around whole day "reading" our Literature books. Not that we understood what we were reading. Till now, I still wondered why the hell did I take up Literature when I myself don't really read books back then. and the Answer : I was too lazy to do those long term Arts and Technical projects. I was never good at any any of those then (...and probably now). Futhermore, I thought Literature was easy because I only need to read books and memorize the storyline but not till I had to do Shakespears !. I remembered having to read ROMEO & JULIET in Old English format that sounded strange and alien to me then. I was too lazy to read the book thus I borrowed the movie, Romeo & Juliet instead. Romeo wearing those tight pants and Juliet look all BLONDE...Woohooo. Only the Video Tape interest me...

Throughout the 2 yrs of studying literature, no book have ever interest me as much as the book called " The Outsides" from SE Hilton. It was the only book that I really took the time to read ever single details and having to understand the characters and its storyline and then I got to see the movie ... It was AWSOME .... The actors in the movie were made up of famous actor such as Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe, Ralph Manchio (Karate Kid), Emilo Estaves, Thomas C Howell and Mr Misson Impossible himself, Tom Cruise. When the movie was made, these people were not even famous yet.



Anyway, back to the story, it was basically about the life of rich and poor kids having to struggle to create their own identity. It was very rock and roll type. Something like GREESE but non musical and packed with drama.

I recommend this MOVIE too all. A real classix with gud soundtrack from STEVIE WONDER.

I would give this movie 4.5 / 5 ratings.
