노리코 서울에 가다 + 白蛇传说

SJ's "A-Cha" MV released a few days ago... I can see SJ's style after "Sorry, Sorry" haha. And I can't help but to realise the change in ShinDong's "eyes"... was thinking if he underwent some surgery cos his眼神looks more manly nw somehw lol.

Was watching "Star King" epi ysn and it's a magic competition bet. 3 contestants. 1 of them dared to try the Harry Houdini's "The Upside Down" (Chinese Water Torture Cell), and still managed to escape within 100 secs phew! *"Itchy hand" and I went up to youtube and searched for magic accident-related vids and saw 1 gruesome one... the magician literally sawed his wife's neck omg.*

I finished "노리코 서울에 가다" too... basically caught this for the sake of Hongki la haha... nth great in it anyway, juz a short drama promoting Seoul.

Oh and I muz say "Kiss & Cry", the 14-episode Korean ice-skating variety co-hosted by Kim Yuna is beautiful! Watched it for the sake of U-Know at 1st, seeing hw hardworking he is as an artiste is admirable. However as the show went on, I am gradually amazed by other artistes' performances too... the way they skated looked so pro. *aiyoh I gt the urge to skate in the rink too~* Technically, Krystal's definitely gt it, and Son Dam Bi is nex in line. A combi of elegance and confidence... definitely worth the watch! Kudos to all artistes and their partners on the show.

Anyway with regards to my spoilt SE Aino, I gt a Samsung Galaxy Ace to replace it!

Went down to Singtel shop at JP and my initial intention was to get LG Optimus Black cos it looked kinda gd from the reviews I read online... though friends think otherwise. Was almost bent on buying it when the person showed me the actual phone and u could say I was near "mesmerised" by the brightly-lit screen... wonderful display. Then, this manager (I suppose?) came over and told me to test the phone for it's incoming call b4 I buy cos he mentioned there's prob with incoming calls for this batch of LG Black. We tried and it kept saying tat my number's busy... and我还不死心, asked the manager when the nex batch would come lol... and he said nt so soon. 

Since I couldn't wait, I looked at LG Optimus Chic and Samsung Galaxy Ace b4 I chose the latter. *Dun want to get an ex phone cos I dun trust phone nwadays... spoil so easily这些所谓“smartphone”... 八成是“用脑过度”，所以寿命不长lol。* I was still hesitating right up to the min I bought it eh... thinking if I made the right choice haha. And the lady who served me was blur la... she told me I had to top-up 98bucks prior to extending my dad's hp line... until the cashier auntie reminded her my phone model's on promotion... so it's for free! Lucky me I guess... and yeah I do think I need some time to accustom myself to "the newest mobile technology in town" haha. *Ok seems it's nt bad a decision made after all, except for the fact tat the batt is really poor if applns like wi-fi/3G/backgrd synchro stuff etc. is on all the time...*

Shan't rant about my sch assignments and ppts cos they nv seem to end... nt at least for the coming 3wks, from wat I can foresee haiz. On a brighter note, I won a pair of ticket for "白蛇传说" from the sms to I-weekly! Mum din wan to watch, so I asked Jess and we headed to Shaw Lido for the movie... which started at 7.30pm instead of 7pm (as mentioned in the winning sms)... 害我那么赶！

The "hamper" was Bio-essence's face-lifting cream lol. *Oh the接待员was kinda gd-looking haha.* Jess was telling me hw Gladys loves this, so mum and I are gonna try and see if this really works haha. On a side note, Lido after revamp is so much better-looking... Shaw Lido theatre 1 is big!

Coincidentally, JX wrote on the board about this movie premiering coming thurs in HC204's tut, and I already caught the preview on tues haha!

Well... 特效won in this movie I reckon... storyline's kinda the norm tat everyone already knew. Oh and I think there's a difference when u noe the backgrd of the movie b4 watching, and it feels so much better to be in the know. Say for example the mention of金山寺、雷锋塔、湖心亭and during 15th of the mth wat杭州人used to do in the past. 热闹的西湖真的让我想起张岱的《西湖七月半》，只差他没提到蝙蝠妖也参与"赏月"了啦... LOL!

Hmm... 法海果然并非全无情啦, he did悔悟in the end, but b4 tat素贞already couldn't ctrl her anger... 水淹金山寺leh~ Imagine hw many innocent lives could be taken... as opposed to hw she helped saved villagers lives when married happily to许仙. It's all a cycle la... u see hw stubborn法海was with his“人鬼殊途”belief, and hw much素贞wanted to be with许仙, so much so she literally fought against all odds. 

Anyway, I liked黄圣依while Jess tot A Sa's prettier. We both disliked the许仙character though... way too "stupid" liao... nt even when he's portrayed by the handsome林峰.
