Christmas 2010

This year's christmas i spent it with my family ^^ no countdowns no nothing. just some nice family time after neglecting them for over a month due to my exams.

on the 24th, we went to watch Tron Legacy. it wasn't really planned. we had wanted to watch Narnia but we were left with the 4th row from the front so we changed shows.













erm... the show was.... okayy la. i think the storyline and all is alrdy there but the way they edit the film makes the viewer unable to take in the full effects of the show. Basically the movie is talking about the son going into the video game reality to save his father who has been trapped inside for almost 20 years. it plays around with the idea of humans actually being able to create a new world of our own and playing god. but of course, that is not possible and something has to happen to screw the whole system up. plot there but skills... need to work on it.

after the show, my dad said he'll bring us to someplace new! we proceeded to serangoon, bottle tree village to eat. the route in was super ulu. it reminded me of the streets in indonesia. yea, no lamplights and there was only a narrow road path in. a little like the road in to Sarimbun camp. but when we reached inside, the atmosphere was clean and the air was fresh. it was beside the beach so its a very good place to go when u just wanna relax and chill =] However, it'll be quite difficult to enter the place if u dun have a car, i doubt many taxi drivers will know their way in either.

the playground just outside:

decorations inside to make it feel more kampong-ish:

seating arrangements, tables were quite sparse so u had ample free space to yourself:

the english dining menu:

we ordered the chinese style though. the food was pass-able. the only thing that was above average was the fish head steamboat. saw alot of ppl eating their chilli crab but we din feel like eating crab. maybe next time den try ^^


on Christmas day itself, we went to watch Narnia, Voyage of the dawn treader!






























this show was MUCH MUCH better than tron. there were better humour, amazing sets and intriguing storyline! u really have to watch it yourself to be amazed and taken in by all of narnia's beauty. its kinda sad that Edmund and Lucy won't be returning to Narnia anymore but Eustas is quite a funny addition to the chronicles. looking forward to seeing him have an adventure of his own! it was exciting right to the very last moment. and funny event of the day? u shud have seen the speed of me and my sis taking off to the toilet IMMEDIATELY when the credits started to roll. hahahaha. its a nice show =]

with the magical land of Narnia, my christmas went and bye. i wouldn't say its a lonely christmas cuz i was still with my loved ones. but it'll be nice if i have a special someone next to me in the following christmas :D
