I see nothin
I went down to Boat Quay yesterday with the intention of enjoying the Singapore Art’s Festival’s Water Fool, the much talked about opening performance.
BUT the crowds were incredible! People were all packed like sardines at the waterfront areas and unless you were super incredibly tall, there was no way you could see anything.
boo
But at least all was not lost for the evening. We did have tickets to watch Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull so we were entertained for a bit. But the movie wasn’t that great? Maybe coz so much of it was trying to follow the style of the other Indie movies that everything was kinda predictable?

Creaky Knees
Whenever I squat, my knees creak. During yoga class, when we are doing sun salutations, everyone laughs when we lunge or hop back to front coz my knees will be creaking LOUDLY. I feel like the Ironman (which by the way is a great movie) unoiled ![]()

Great Film- The World’s Fastest Indian
It is amazing that his completely modified on-his-own bike [ He redid the front end. He made his own high-speed tires. He designed and made his own cylinder heads, cams, pushrods, crankshafts, valves, heads, oiling system and pistons.] has broken the landspeed record for bikes in the 1000cc category…and the record remains unbroken till today!
I like the quote that he gave Tom, his neighbour’s little boy when he asked Burt about why wasn’t he afraid of dying while pushing the speed limits:
” You live more in five minutes on a bike like this than some people live in a lifetime.”
Moral of the story: don’t get in the way of dreams

Fwah!
Went to watch the Dragon Tiger Gate movie on friday evening…it was damn drama sia. There were moments of such dramatic declaration and expressions of pain, love, happiness that I was either rolling eyes or laughing.
but I liked the visual juxtaposition of old world chinese architecture with the urban high-rise buildings of HK. Just don’t understand why Ma Xiaoling had to drag the wounded heros up the mountain in a rickshaw when the movie has a modern day setting and she could have chosen either a landrover, helicopter or jeep or some other machinery that is openly available to a rich single heiress like herself…hmm…anyways, I was entertained by the show.
