let's get personal
like i've said countless amount of times...i'm looking forward to tomorrow's show. technically it's today...in less than 8 hours. i hope it's as good as the first one which had me rolling on the floor. i spent most of the day at the office today watching 'whose line is it anyway?'. i found myself laughing out loud a couple of times and i have a feeling my colleagues thought that i've gone stark mad. anyway...it was good fun. i'm hoping that instant cafe theatre will do another run for the actorlympics. the actorlympics had me in tears and ben was laughing till he almost fell of the chair.today's journey back was pretty boring. didn't meet anyone exciting on the bus. i have a feeling most of the people on the bus were singaporean and they were all headed to genting which by the way they pronounce as 'jen-ting'. initially i thought they were talking about some kampung up in perlis but after finding out that 'jen-ting' has a casino and a theme park i pinpointed it to genting.
will also be watching spidey 2 on monday. at least i think i'll be watching it on monday. ever since i went to singapore i'm no longer the movie buff anymore. i've got no access to pirated dvds and vcds and i can't visit the cinemas as often as i used to. people are starting to watch movies before i do....and if you know me prior to singapore you'd be shocked too. in any case...i'm still in my weirdo foreign flick phase so it doesn't really matter where i am.
once again i shall mention that fahrenheit 9/11 was really good. you should take notice of robert deniro and ben affleck in the opening scene as well as britney telling her fellow americans that she trusts and supports president bush. let's see what happens after she gets married and has little britneys....she'll probably want to retract that statement. after watching that documentary i've come to realize that bush is what he is....probably one of the most undeserving presidents in the history of the united states of america. michael moore convinced me that bush is stupid and irresponsible. my dad likes to make fun of president bush. he'll joke about the way he talks or the things he says on CNN. it's like he's publicly announcing to his fellow americans that he is incapable of doing anything other than reading one of his written speeches. and even then he doesn't pronounce the words right. in the end...i guess he'll be remembered regardless of what he's done...what he'll be remembered as is a different story.
i'll end this post with a few fun facts...i've had so many i'm running out :)
