ok, i spent quite some time doing this layout.
the drawing especially, but it was a good one.
=)
finally watched death note today, with some s14 ppl. to be honest, i had expected the movie to be not as nice as the manga/anime, and my expectations were, sadly, correct. unlike most animes, the 'thing' which makes people love death note is all the little details in the story, how both characters manage to manipulate and fool each other to avoid being discovered and how very smart they are in their analytical skills. sadly, much of these small details were left out, due to the limited time of a movie i suppose. the smart thing the producers did was to divide the movie into 2 parts instead of cramping the entire series into a 2-hour movie. but anw, that is impossible. now i know why other people who've read harry potter said harry potter and the goblet of fire wasn't nice when i thought it was nice. becos i didn't read the book before i watch the movie. lolx. anw, it's not like i discourage u guys from watching or anything. it's still a nice movie despite all that i've mentioned above.
and vivo city was another orchard road today. i actually missed out the fact that today was a public holiday a decided on today to catch the movie. needless to say, we were forced to sit at the first 2 rows for the movie. but hui juin, (whom i seriously think looks shorter in long pants (irony), came up with this fantastic idea of sitting on the floor and lying back on the seat since we're in the front row. works pretty well. only thing to take note is that you'll fall asleep quite easily if the movie is boring. but of course death note isn't boring.
and my cousin did a death-defying stunt today when attempting to drive my mum's car out of the parking lot with 2 cars parked super close on either sides and a bus blocking it's path about 5m in front. i think my heart skipped a beat when he did that. according to him, it requires much 'skill'. i really wonder how did he get his driving liscense. hmmm...
