for the future me

to film a movie from a book with fact and fiction so intertwined, it caused a global controversy. but nevertheless, the trailer is just, wow! it's like everything leapt out of the book and..and..pixelated itself! came alive! with all the appropriate coincidence in the world, i finished the novel only today. yes, slow i know. it took me almost 2yrs. i first got hold of it in tj library. and it was like, on display on the table..i forgot what it is. new arrival maybe. and NOBODY WANTED IT. check out the reserve list in any library now man. you'll probably have your grandchildren reading with you by the time you get it! anyway, maybe the reading the last bits of the book just hours ago blew me off my feet or something, but the trailer just hooked me like the goblet of fire one..and i can't wait to watch it, really. a pity it's 18/19th may (depending on which part of the globe you're on), if not it'll add on to my best movies year! as in, my 19th year..not year 2005/06. (: and once agn, no matter who you are..catch it cos it's a thrilling and stunning movie, not boycott it cos it's based on the book that challenges the faith that you hold.

look what i've done! not wishing everyone a happy lunar new year right at the beginning! haha, what a spontaneous blogger i am. anyway, nothing much tdy..just enjoyed the best part of one of my favourite times of the year. watching the family gather round. hmm, i just love the crowd in my family. maybe cos i grew up having ppl to visit me till my granny moved to punggol. or maybe cos they're ppl i envy so much. five middle-aged siblings having such a good time every year. i wonder if my cousins and i will grow up to be.

AND i like cny cos when the visiting's over, everyone comes online! AND THEY ARE NOT AWAY OR BUSY! hurray! the joyous time of the year. i'm popping confetti at my lappie screen. i finally like, acty talk to ppl..and not be having discussions that u know, have a purpose. it's acty more happening during cny than during xmas. every now and then an msn window or sms pops up wishing me a happy doggy year. i wish them a dogged year back. haha, that's not true of cos. but it made me think why there's no hamster year. or fish year. my two favourite pets excluded! grr. i guess they first must figure out the chinese name for hamster. which is cang1 shu3, for those who are forever confused by like 6 other alternative names. haha. cang shu cang shu! unfortunately diaryland doesn't recognise chinese words. :(

and finally, i present, in my opinion, the cleverest riddle in the book:

In London lies a knight a Pope interred.
His labor's fruit a Holy wrath incurred.
You seek the orb that ought be on his tomb.
It speaks of Rosy flesh and seeded womb.
