Laser Quest

My first DSTA PC 11 outing was held over laser quest. I didn't know that the whole PC 11 was that huge... Seems like I'm still shelthered within a safety zone. Only manage to interact within my group. But it seems like the rest were very friendly as well.
Anyway, it's my first time playing laser quest. It was interesting trying to shoot and escape from the opposing team (damn tiring as well). Definitely brought me back to the army days (without the proning). Although I probably brought down my team's score, we managed to emerge as champions! Hurray!
The best thing is that it's quite cheap and somewhat innovative way of team bonding. Looking forward to the next gathering.

Movie: Inception

Review:
Dreams within dreams may not have worked out in reality, but in Christopher Nolan's masterpiece of wonderfully thought out world, it's hard to believe otherwise. Superb performances by Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Ken Watanabe etc and an intricate plot brought the crowd to the edges of their seats. Even ancient philosophers debating on dreams must agree that this is a hit.

Disappointment at The Cathay

Disappointment with a capital D while watching The Sorcerer's Apprentice at The Cathay. We were barely seated when the show started, and that was when only 50% of the theatre was filled and people were still pouring in. There were no screening of trailers as well. Not only that, the lights remained on while they screened the movie at the wrong aspects ratio, cutting out Walt Disney's name. I could not even see the names of the people involved in this movie. At this point of time, the projectionist decided to fiddle with the project, blacking out the show and killing the plot. Of course that won the crowds' approval of boos and vulgarities. When the screen became a trapezoid did I realise that they have to manually open the curtains. What a joke for Cathay being THX certified and premier theatre.

Movie: The Sorcerer's Apprentice

Review:
The movie must has cast an enticing spell in its trailing, bewitching me into watching a movie with a more predictable plot than Eclipse. Coming from a fantasy genre, there's nothing fantastic or creative about the scenes other than piecing it badly from other movies. Nicholas Cage was a disappointment in this show despite being the lead and most veteran. The only few notable scenes were the Chinatown dragon chase and Disney's fantasia. Other than that, it's a joke looking at them firing plasma balls like a kid holding a sparkler. Worse, even kids can do better than that.

Tin man

If imprint is possible,
Will I feel the same way.
Or did I only see the forest.

Movie: Toy Story 3

Review:
One word of thanks to Toy Story for bringing back fond memories of childhood, for growing up with us, for its wonderful imagination, for its ability to make us feel so much for the toys. A perfect closure!

Meetup

Even after a 9-month absence, it's as if I never left.
Great to be back with friends who care.

First day of internship

Where thy enthusiasm? One might ask.
Well, I woke up real early and miscalculated my travelling time which resulted in me getting there real early.
I guess my first day was so-so.
Got situated in a small cold room that seemed to house only me.
No laptop and no friends yet (unless I count my mentor)
With that, my first day ended and many more days to come

Back!

Back to the lovely Singapore.
Back to family.
Back to friends.
Back to food.
Back to life.
