Nightmares

I am so darn sleepy today. Goodness gracious! I did not have a good sleep yesterday. In fact, I had nightmares!


At one point of the night, I woke up to find a sore, stiff neck because my pillow is no longer cushioning my head. My pillow was actually "stolen" away from me n flung off a side. No prize quessing who's deed. Not the first time anyway *sweat*


Then throughout the night I had nightmares. I dreamt that I was on the verge of not making it to my flight. In fact, I was late and yet still at home and not at the airport yet. Furthermore, I had not packed my bag. I was in a state of panic already.


Then the dream jump to another scene where I have not tender my resignation and I was about to fly. Again I was in a panic state as I have just realised that I have make a wrong flight booking on the date or that I have neglected to inform my management about it.


Just about any possible bad things that might happened before I can actually board the flight, happened in my dreams.


So imagine my horror!


This is really a bad, bad dream.!


I wonder why would I dreamt all these things now? Is it some sort of unconscious wake up call? So that I shouldn't procrastinate so much?


Let's just hope, by March come, everything will be smooth sailing please.


Good bless!

Harry Potter (part 1)

Went and watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows yesterday with bro and Sly. Ahem, Iron Dinosaur and Godzilla were there too, albeit slightly behind because we booked the ticket differently. Ahem, well, things happened :p

It was an okay sort of movie, well a typical Harry Potter movie, if you know what I mean. Apparently the last installment of the Harry Potter series was way too thick hence they break it into two parts in the movie. Another way for the producers to earn more.

To be honest, this Harry Potter thing had been going on for more than 10 years. So naturally, I have forgotten most of the story already. In fact, I think I stopped reading the book years ago. I thinked I stopped at the 5th book...Whatever!

Honestly speaking, apart from Hermione, whom is a great beauty, I can hardly dub Harry Potter or Ron Weasley as handsome. In want of a better word, they both looked kinda average. And I think I am being generous here muahahahaha.

Heck, at times I don't understand the relationship shared between Harry and Hermione as well. It is well known that Hermione liked Ron, and her affection is returned. Yet, I think Harry is still kinda confused about his relationship with them. One moment Harry is kissing Ginny (Ron's youngest sister) and next Harry is gazing longingly at Hermione.

Get a grip! What on earth are you thinking, Harry Potter???

Oh, there's plus point for knowing how to use magic. I particularly liked Hermione's small burgundy reticule. It may be a small delicate thing on the outlook, but it sure goes deep inside. It reminds me so much of the Doraemon's pocket. YOU can find all sorts of things in Doraemon's pocket. And so does Hermione's reticule. Cool!

Another thing that I liked in the movie is the tent. Seriously, from the outlook, the tent looked very very normal and small. However, the inside is well equiped. Not surprisingly, the inside of the tent is spacious, complete with wooden table, chairs and bed. Make you wished you had magic too, don't ya?

Broke, again

It's barely a week since I got my paycheque and I am broke again. *Bummer!* I don't know how on earth does money slips away from my hand -.-" I guess it's back to bread and water for the remaining of the month (which is like, 3 more weeks to go).

Went to Penang to spent my holiday with my dear and not surprisingly, we went on a shopping spree! *it was planned that way actually* What I didn't foresee was that I was the one running mad with *nearly* all the purchases. That weekend alone, I nearly swiped RM500!

Hehe, there was sales everywhere and everything just seems so cheap and affordable! Can't resist the temptation in the end. And you know what, President was actually encouraging me to buy! He was like the devil beside me keep pushing and insist that I should buy this and that ;p I swear, I have not met a man more insistent than him hoho!

But then to be fair, it was on sales la and everything was really so cheap and affordable. Just that weekend alone, I got myself a new chic hiking bag, *wailed~ it was on sale, 60% some more mind you! who on their right mind would resist it?* long johns, harddisk, and some clothes. Yeah, I guess that pretty much sums it all.

I did resist myself in getting a winter jacket ok? That will have to wait.

Thank God in the end, most of the items purchased are sponsored by my dear President. Hoho, he can be so kind and generous sometimes^^ or else I can't even afford bread to go with water

Over the weekend we watched a movie in Gurney Plaza, "You Again".

It's really quite a hilarious movie. Entertaining. The storyline is pretty much the same, predictable - nothing original here. But it was funny, just something to lighten up my weekend.


The plot basically goes something like this:


The protagonist, Marni was an ugly duckling in high school and she always got picked up by the popular girl, J.J. Yeah high school was difficult but she drew the strength from her brother's encouragement and managed to succeed in life 8 years later. Ugly duckling has transform into a beautiful swan.


A call from home says that her beloved brother is about to get married and she flew home, only to realised that her future sister-in-law is none other than her arch nemesis, J.J! Only this time, she doesn't goes by that nickname anymore. She's Joanna now.

Marni vs Joanna

And the rest they say is history! Haha the story progress from here and in the end, it's happy ending. Ta-daa~


Quite a nice movie to chill out and relax. Do watch. The slapstick comedy will make you laugh for sure.

My experience with the Immigration Officers

Yeah as Godzilla suggested, let me share with you my story. More like my brief encounter with the Immigration officers. Several, in fact.


Ok, here goes nothing.

Small Gas, I believe you watched this show before right? Acted by Roger Kwok. It's about the Immigration in HK and stuff.

Remember there's a part that the officers would look at the passports of China ppl entering HK? If the people looked suspicious, the officers would ask a few "general" question right?

Sample Questions:

1. Why are you coming to HK?
2. How long do you intend to stay in HK?
3. Where do you plan to visit in HK?
4. Are you here with friends or family?

From here onwards, I think you should be able to guess where I am heading right? YUP, I have experience it all. First hand. Like, seriously.

Somehow, I am the only one kena all these questions again and again.

Honestly speaking, at first, I was terrified. Why am I gotten all these questions while the rest are able to pass the Immigration counter scratch free?? Why ME???

In fact, I remembered a specific incident clearly as it is quite embarassing hurhur~ You see, the Philippines are using the American format when addressing people, namely by their last name (surname), first name and middle name. So go figure how to write our Chinese name in the form.

So what happened was like this:

• Officer: Ms Lee Leng?
• Me: ... ... (look around the airport absendminded)
• Officer: Ms Lee Leng? *louder* Lee Leng??
• Me: ... ah yes?? yess yess??? *huge saucer eyes that looked bewildered*
• Officer: (laugh good naturedly) where do you plan to visit?
• Me: Bacolod
• Officer: You come with friends or family?
• Me: Friends *at this point I was stretching my ears to hear him*
• Officer *saw President waiting for me* with boyfriend?
• Me: yes

Then only I'm let go. Seriously, you have no idea how I have to strained my ears to listen to him. The bustling airport is not exactly quiet and the office voice and tone is so soft. Don't even get me started on his accent which I find it a little hard to get used to.

I mean like, who on their right mind would call me Lee Leng??? How on earth do you expect me to answer to that call? It's not exactly familiar you know. Not that it was the officer's fault, but still, our name does not function like that isn't it? -.-"

After much pondering, I think I figured out why I was singled out for this unofficial investigation. My own justification were that in my passport, I had long sleek hair. But on the said time, my hair was curly and I had my specs on. So I must have kinda looked "different". So there, all figured out!

Oh, and the moral of the story is, please named your future kids with an English name to avoid half of the trouble I had to go through. Ergo, you must have realised why the other couple managed to sailed free.

There, I hoped you guys are entertained. Please do not fell off the seat just yet. A final kick: Another reason Iron Dinosaur sailed throught the Immigration is because, well he is at home. He blends in well afterall ;p *just kidding*
