Double Movie Day!

Yup, I watched 2 movies in 1 day! Yesterday, Friday, I got my final semester results. My mum didn't know about it until we were on our way to Vivo. When she found out I passed everything, (YEAH MAN!!!) she said ''ok, let's celebrate!'' So we tried to go for the Gold Class movie which was ''Horton Hears A Who''. But they were only left with the first row, so we decided to just watch the same movie at GV Max. After that movie, we wanted to see if there was another movie we could watch. ''Spiderwick Chronicles'' was our next choice, but they didn't have good seats for that, unless we watched the midnight show, which my mum didn't want. So we ended up watching ''No Country For Old Men'', cos it won for best picture at this year's Oscars. BIG mistake. In movies, I find the Scottish and Irish accents pretty hard to understand. Next is the old type of American accent. You know, those Texan-like accent where they drag out the ending of every word, the kind you see in those ''cowboy'' movies. Anyway, the whole film was in that accent and it barely had any music in it. A lot of violence and a lot of long pauses and I kinda lost my concentration in the end. For me, if I have to concentrate on a film instead of being just naturally drawn into it, I don't think its a very well made film. I don't know why it won for best picture. But then again, maybe I just don't get it! I think Atonement should have won... :)

My results certainly weren't top-notch. But, I managed to pass everything, which was what I was aiming for anyway. The good thing about my parents is that they aren't particular on what type of grades I should have. They're just happy as long as I pass! My dad even said ''fail 1 or 2 also never mind''. My mum reminded him that if I did fail, I would have to stay back another 6 months or so! Haha...

The toilet is my friend. Ever since I was sick, I've been having what I call ''backside vomit''. Its like actual vomit, but from the back! Haha... You know the kind when you feel it coming and you have no control over it and it just comes out however it wants to come out! I go to the toilet about 4 times a day now to do that and the result always looks weird...

Seems like today is another just slacking at home... I'm enjoying myself! I love to stay at home, but only if I go out once in a while. I got food, drinks and entertainment in the form of movies, karaoke and Sims! I like to read, and when there's no one at home, I can concentrate better... Over 60 channels of cable TV to browse... and there's a Chelsea match tonight! What more could I ask for? Haha... The way I see it is, I better appreciate all the free time I have now, slack all I want to, before I actually find a job and become a working stiff for the rest of my life!

And that's my interpretation...
