Damn you Stomach Flu

I couldn't remember the last time I vomited so badly. In a time span of 20 minutes, I vomited 3 times and pretty much emptied my lunch. Bo pian, 2 more hours before knocking off, I called and asked if I need to take MC if I leave home now.

The ride home was pretty awful, I had to hold my urge to vomit in the cab. The moment I alighted, I wanted to vomit, but my first thought was, "Not here, no tissue". So I endured for another 5 mins while I made my way up home. Thankfully, the cab driver stopped just nice in front of the lift, so I didn't have to walk that much.

The moment I opened the door, I merlioned into the plastic bag which I stashed for a "just in case I can't make it to the toilet". My mum and little sister watched me like I'm a soap opera or something, barely just asking why I was home so early. Then my mum quipped after I was done with vomiting, "Ur daddy says this is San Kang Hur". I think it meant sick or something.

I got my little sister to throw the waste for me while I just concussed on the floor. It took me an hour or so before I wriggled myself up to my bed, and wrapped myself into my snuggly blanket. My room was like a oven and yet I felt cold.

The upside of vomiting and eating less was I could give my stomach a break and burned so fat.

A Chinese Ghost Story? A Story That Waste Money more likely...

I'm an easy going person, and I never think so much about a movie during or after watching it. The last show that I condemned was Twilight, coz the actors and actresses have looks no skills.

The new Chinese Ghost Story was just a little bit of winning the loser title from Twilight. It provided a few funny moments, which made not as bad as Twilight.

There were some movies parts knocked off, Pirates of the Caribbean: the villages had tree barks growing all over them. Looked too much like those Davy Jones' crew. Then there were the two snake demons, Green snake and White snake. Of all things, why green and white snakes? CGI not bad, but the fox a bit too fake lah. The female lead as Xiao Qian, innocent looking, but not sexy enough. Ning Cai Chen, what an idiot. Yan Chi Xia, handsome but love moron.

Some parts that I find it ridiculous. If they could be killed easily with the swords, why set up a formation to kill Xiao Qian? Yan Chi Xia asked Ning Cai Chen to free him (he was tied up) so that he could break the formation and save Xiao Qian. The reason he told Ning Cai Chen was only he knew how to break the formation. At this point, I tot there was a need to babble some abracadabra. Then came this side kick who switched off the formation, like a switch. What the? Then it turned out this sidekick was to babble some stuffs, to knock some sense into Yan Chi Xia, for not saving people but saving the demon instead. Blah blah.

It was so boring that I yawned throughout, although I'm not sure whether it was because it was 1am already and I barely had 4 hrs sleep the whole of last week. At the last part, I cried, not because the story was touching but out of boredom.

They tried to bring some signature parts from the old classic, but it looked kinda ridiculous. The song still nice, but totally not matched for this show. The saving grace was some lame jokes and the chief of the village totally stole the scenes with his act seh attitude and his tortoise. I had fun counting the parts which Green Snake had surgery on. Boobs definitely, lips plumped, nose maybe, eyes not sure coz too much eye makeup.

The had to name drop Leslie Cheung at the end during credit. For wat?

Totally not worth the money though, spend it on the old classic dvd instead.
