been a good tiring long 4 days. parents were off overseas on sat, bro was staying over at friend's place and sis was at my grandma's house. so i guess i had the whole house to myself these 4 days.

luke, martin and kaiwen came to stay over at my place on sat. then we walked over to prata house and thomson plaza the next day, then went over to kaiwen's house to practice for 'bring it on' concert for auditions on this coming friday. went over to Gideon's place that night.

went for Xmen 3 on monday morning, and went over to kaiwen's house again for more practicing, before Gideon came over to my place.

and so, kahfai came over this morning to catch Final Destination 2, before i headed out to serangoon to officially jam for the first time. i guess its real loud lah, as in the drums and all.

came back so that my bro could come home. guess its good to spend some individual time with him before my parents come back today. watched some tom yum goong show with him.

and after that, was when we watched Saving Private Ryan. the last time i saw the film was back in pri sch, and i remember how we were all going crazy in the student care center when we heard there was this gory war film that came out in the theaters, and how we planned to sneak in and watch it and all. in the end i had to watch it at some plasma tv display set where they were playing the show, uncensored! so it kinda was my first M18 show.

the show kind of took me by surprise. i didnt know it's such a personal and intimate show, as in its a show that really speaks into us. so much sincere realism it brings about life. it showed me how real wars are, and how fragile life is. friendships, family ties and all. admist all that, is what the show was really trying to tell us. the film seems to buries itself in your conscience, pulling at your soul. and forces you to sit down and contemplate the true meaning of sacrifice and appreciate what we have.

i like the way the show ends, by questioning us, on whether we are living the best life we could. ay its a real sincere and honest film lah. do catch it if u could, or u could just borrow the dvd from me! oh well. loads of stuff are coming up.
