plus seems like everyone is riding on e 3D fever.. almost all blockbuster got 3D format.. still wondering if i shall watch tt cartoon in 3D.. but its by Dreamworks not Pixar leh.. upcoming is Clash of the Titans.. heard its not worth to watch in 3D though.. cos its filmed in 2D first then use computer skills to make it into 3D, unlike Avatar.. hmmm
& for e second time, met someone i know when on i set off.. great mind think alike? lolz
stupid weather.. rain non stop when i was there.. but at least the ppl i went with were a fun bunch.. =P
& for a short while, the night sky in bintan is fantastic!!! woot~~ but it rained shortly after.. reminds me of e geminids night in ECP
but at least i went for the massage... not too bad & quite cheap too.. perhaps next time shd realli go batam to jus shop + massage + play sea sports/go kart/paintball.. lolz..
then realise there is a factory outlet in bintan called the real badung factory outlet.. dun find it big though it claim tt its e largest apparel outlet in bintan bintan is jus not a place for shopping.. however manage to buy a Guess watch at an incredibly cheap price.. keeping my fingers crossed tt its authentic =D
记者出身的卡尔·欧诺黑(Carl Honore)因2004年推出著作《慢活》(In Praise of Slow)而声名大噪,他从多方面分析放慢生活步伐的好处,鼓倡慢食、慢工、慢动、慢疗、慢闲运动;《慢活》问世后,在崇拜速度的年代里,很快获得认同,一些被快速文化搞得昏头转向的读者形容读了此书仿佛如沐春风,造成此书在短时间内译成数十种语言在全球热卖,卡尔·欧诺黑也俨然慢活代言人。
jus got e Steady mag with a free Agnes b lunch tote jusb4 CNY.. though kind of disappointed cos e dimensions stated on e mag cover seems like its bigger than e other tote bag they gave out last yr.. but in e end still same size..
then esther also got inform me abt e Lofficiel mag which gave away French eyeshadow last yr is giving out quad eyeshadow for e Mar issue and pre-order is ava and is delivered right to my doorstep..
so last week i went on to order 2 copies even though my eyeshadow is still quite well stocked.. =P & I forgot totally about it until jus now my sis were like 'sis, did u ordered some mag?' they were quite fast!! & i totally love this service though e postage is $1 each at least i now dun nid to go to all e convenience stores in e city area to search for the colours i wanted.. hehe
furthermore i went sample shopping (from Fr3b.com) recently too and got a num of samples to try.. but after sampling quite a num, i find tt e sample size are usu too small to actualli see any results.. or maybe my face slow reaction? =P
& jus saw from tualobang that this yr ben & jerry free cone day is quite early this yr.. on 23 Mar!! yay!! time for free ice cream.. haha
then one more news tt got me excited is that e Universal Studio Singapore will be opening its door on 18 Mar!! saw some photos preview b4 n some parts certainly looks like USJ! & e exclusive attractions sure looks interesting
now dunno if i shd get e annual pass cos cfm cant cover all in 1 day
when i was in USJ, we merely picked those that we like to try and the queue at e rollercoaster is so long tt we queued for more than 30 min!! most prob will end up waiting time longer than playing time
but perhaps i shd get it next yr instead when e Transformer attraction is open.. lolz
