Now that the skin is changed, looks like I have to type in super-big fonts so that reading is easier on the eyes. Is it bigger now? Argh. I had so much troubling playing around with the html, now that the tag-board is up, I can't enable comments!!! and I cant' view them either!!! I still have to add a song, more info, and links as well. Good luck to my fiddling around with the html tags. They're driving me nuts.
Luckily I still have some DVDs and chick lit to watch and read. Borrowed abt 20 DVDs ( gasp!) from my friends, think I would take ages to finish watching them. haha, some of them are uncensored, now there comes the trouble of watching undisturbed so as to prevent from having any potentially embarrassing moments. And I seriously need to have plenty of good books at hand to keep me entertained. Cant wait for Harry Potter to be out, july 16th!!! But the queues are gonna be super-long and I'm sure the book wouldn't be v cheap. It strikes me as weird that children books can cost quite a bit nowadays, am expecting the new HP book to be around $40 for a hardcover copy. The good thing is that the book, once bought, will always be there as a tangible object; whenever you feel like flipping it through, you can. What I can't stomach is the rise in cinema ticket prices!!! One red bill gone just for a movie on a weekend, and you can only re-see it in your mind.... or until you watch it on VCD, or DVD, and you'll probably kick yourself for watching it in the cinema only to find out that it's those CMI
films.Even for blockbusters, its still quite ludicrous... Those staying in Woodlands or Yishun are so lucky, they can just pop by Johor for a cheap and good meal, do some shopping and watch a movie there at Cathay (Johor i think?) for around S$6 at most!!! No wonder SM Goh Chok Tong once commented that S'poreans are all like birds when they go over to countries like Malaysia and Thailand, they go " cheap cheap!!" non-stop. Little wonder why. He should ask himself why S'poreans find living in S'pore is so much more expensive than our neighbouring countries. My main grouses would centre around transport and movies. The freaking ezlink card top-ups easily amount up to $40 bucks a month... I really have a good mind to cheat at times. And its not as if the services are damn good, the buses are still as crowded and dirty and smelly; the frequencies are still as bad; and its not as if I get to sit on a OSIM-like chair and enjoy the cool air while taking in the beautiful surroundings. When reality strikes, more often than not, you have to jostle with the crowd ( I especially can't stand those ppl particularly ah-sohs and those malay women who always rush to the bus when it's arriving and then squeeze shamelessly across you just to get to a freaking seat, or to get nearer to the rear of the bus. worse, they seem oblivious to all the laser-glares of ppl like me and someone please tell them that theres's no avoiding the cram even if you push yourself all the way to the back! ) and stand most of the time. Count yourself lucky if you get a seat and have no smelly people near you. If there's no traffic jam, that's a bonus. I certainly see no justification in the increase in travelling costs. And as for the hike in movie prices, isn't it weird that cathay isn't increasing their prices? stupid golden village and some other distributors have the cheek to increase it like no one's business and expect us to swallow all the jazz that they gave us, WTH...
Hmm... I'm in a bitchy mood again, shall stop here. Time to watch The Dreamers now haha...
