ghim moh food market

in order to be a good boy today, i decided that i would wake up at 630 am to accompany my parents to ghim moh food market to buy the famous pipa roast duck that everyone loves in my family. somehow this unexpected trip triggered off my memory cells and got them working.

the moment my dad turned in from the main road. the whole scene just reenacted for me.. this was the market that i would walk past on the way to the mrt station whenever i sent my first ex to her aunties place. little did i realize then that this was the roast duck market as well till today...

my mum brought me to the chwee kueh stall and claimed that that is the best. the second scene came rushing into my mind once again.. years later.. ( probably a couple from the previous), this was the first breakfast place that i woke up as early as 7 plus to accompany my 2nd ex to come her to eat breakfast. i rmb the chwee kueh that she likes and are also the ones that my parents do this morning only

i finally discovered the above links and find that ghim moh food market actually has a significant meaning for me only now.. my fav. roast duck stall plus all the things that happened here with other girls in my life. well it is better than never. so an unexpected roast duck trip, which i didn't manage to buy it cos the stall was closed, ended up in me linking pieces of my life together. who knows the story of ghim moh food centre may not just stop here for me...

intrusion of privacy

i just attended my NM lecture on intrusion of privacy and realized that there is an obvious breach of privacy in the block!

haha...

the blockhead does send out a detailed contact list at the start of each semster so that people can do keep in contact with each other. however, the problem is ... the contact list is too well detailed! one of the unnecessary details i realized is the inclusion of matric card number. as every single student in NUS has a number for himself (yes.. very much like a prisoner), this number can do wonders.. 2 scenarios below depicts some of the useful functions of matric card no...

stealing matric number to check the exam results...
this doesn't occur too often but there is alwauys sombody out there who are too concerned with their fellow block mates' academic results and will resort to such methods to 'help' check results (sometimes mid term results are released in PDF format). isn't this an obvious case of intrusion of privacy ?

that fellow should really face the walls and repent.. haha...

i shall continue in the next entry...

slumdog millionaire

i managed to catch slumdog millionaire over the weekend. the movie is yet to release in SG so u guys can probably have a good guess on how i catch that movie.

the movie is about an 18 yr old, jamal from the slums of Mumbai finds himself competing on the game show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," where the questions he must answer offer a look back at his earlier life. it also showcase the unseen side of India.. the slums, the racial discrimation.. the poverty side..

there is one part i can hardly forget after the movie.. when jamal was a little boy, he was forced to jump into a shit pit in order to get Amitabh Bachchan's autograph. the scene was kinda of comical. that's little boy was real cute! haha..

since it was meant to be an indian movie, the director included one extra dance scene right at the end of the movie. (there wasn't any throughout the movie) a total indian classic..

it is a great movie. u guys should really catch it. truly deserves the nomination for oscar best motion...

doesn't matter at all

i realized that it doesn't what you do anymore as long as...

i know i am not in the wrong..

and what you are behaving in an immature and childish way..

moving on real fine and without any bother from the past.
