As I carefully cut out label tags, while my wound on my pinky comes remindig me of its existence through messages from nervous system, sense of irritation arose. How do you describe the annoying feeling that comes when you try to cut carefully and straight along the printed line with a not very sharp scissors? Its the same tingling feeling in the stomach when one tries to pass a string through the needle hole. Then it gets worse when you have to endure that sick feeling for 22 times because I have 22 labels to make. But not all cutting tasks are that annoying. It is very shiok to run the scissors across the imaginery line when you cut the plastic that you use to wrap books. Then I was thinking why there isnt a commercial or office printer that can just cut out whateverI programme them to? There should be this flexi knife in the printer that can bend whatever shape can chop away unwanted pieces of paper and then recycle the unused paper to remake them into new usuable pieces of A4 sizes or sth. or Sth like toilet roll of paper that the printer,by agga-ration, determine how much paper to use when printing labels like this. Also the printer should have a UNPRINT function so that when I print sth wrong, I can use laser to unprint it to be a new paper. Or I can unprint all these useless extra copies of powerpoint that ancestor clerks before had mass printed then use it as new paper again. All these rambles lead to my one motive which is to have less contact with paper and less chances of getting paper cuts so that i wont be pissed off again. But again, printing tasks are still more relaxing to do compared to other tasks. Cutting and artncraft is still a NO.
是的。我们终于去台湾了!!!
Lianbra 一大早竟然拦得到徳士,然后以光速到我家。匆匆忙忙赶到楼下时,一个very enthu 的 driver 一直一直一直提醒我有木有带passport.
hanna. 谢谢提醒。
我穿着我的airport fashion =pyjamas(tshirt + yoga pants),准备在飞机上的狭小的空间自由摆出comfy 的睡姿。
eh we reach the airport quite early so bras went to hunt for their breakfast and we arrive at Wang Cafe. then i exclaimed 原来是这个噢!这个有够难吃的!!!!ok. i only tried their chicken 马克咯你。eh n i brought my half eaten breakfast..so the trio continue to buy their breakfast at Wang cafe since limited choice is available at such an early timing.
fast forward>> KC bought MM Chocos >> Wait for plane and Camwhore >> to plane boarding where we split into two groups. me n kc. ly n yy. Sad life...first time boarding plane that does not serve food n drinks. Evian mineral is sold at $4!!!! Mother father cheap. Cup noodles at $5. Our conclusion is that if u wan to buy drinks,get the $7 alcoholic can drinks instead. more 划算。 anw, Jetstar service is quite good since it is so cheap. The plane ride was smooth, no vomit inducing flying skills. The guy sitting beside me was an uncle but somehow it changed into a young guy that is about the same age as me. my complain is that he kept changing so much sleeping postures that i have no choice but to pull down the small tray table and hold my head to sleep n breathe properly. ( The air damn damn dry, future sock please rmb to bring wet hanky or sth to faciliate breathing tanks. ) Then i found a chance to pull my seat backwards n lean on the side of kc chair. Grrr. problem with sleeping on plane is that there is no place for u to rest ur head. haiz. n so i lean to the side but the guy elbow me twice at the ribcage DAMN ITCHY. i sprung up sitting upright wide awake. ok can. ppl trying to sleep yo. back to my hold head sleeping position.
then around 9 30 am plus we neh sleep n decide to go crazy n listen to songs n blah blah. then around half n hour before or sth, the captain pilot starts to speak again in his very obvious Thai accent. so....are we going thailand or taiwan?? Guy beside me n guy beside lianying decide to make fun or thai accent n kept repeating SAWADEEKRAP WELCoME to ThAi Pei~~~~ with super emphasis on thai accent. TAIPEI~~ Kc beside me also laughing...太好笑了。因为没食物,没电视看,我们除了笑也没事做了。
So finally arrived...to damn hot weather. n check out...We went to buy databplan prepaid cards but to my horror, only 20 age n above can get to buy. This is the time where i wish i have Jamie's or Scott's power where i can juz hypnotize n tell them we are indeed above 20 yo. While they were enquiring at the counter, i snooped around at the customer service counter and grabbed potential useful food guides and maps.. I almost took the free 方文山 cd. but no use to me. Throw it back. n we grab tickets from 国光客运 to take bus to Taipei main station. take taxi 太贵了according to Yuandashi。
While we head for the bus, we quench our immense thirst at the water dispenser with interesting paper bag/cup.
The ride was surprisingly quite short to me...to me only la. got one angmoh couple sit near us. #jussaying
Becos i like to 隐隐约约 throw in english words in my sentence of chinese to hint that i can speak english. Eh...to show off purely.
Throughout the bus trip, everyone damn hungry like shit. no la...nvr eat cannot shit. so i shared some bread yo. but also damn thirsty. my water in the luggage . my luggage in the storeroom compartment of the bus. -.-
so nth to do just watch the awkward tv about some 西施和范郎。 ????
And so we arrived at the Taipei Main Station briefly. I was only quick enuf to take one phtoophoto and we hopped on the taxi to advance to our XINCHEN Hotel. 星晨大饭店。 也没有很大。
We split into two taxis. Lianbra n Me. Kangbra n Yaobra. The thing is that we paid 100 NT while they paid 90 NT. UNFAIR!!! not. I guess the 10 NT discrepencies goes to the extra service of the uncle helping to unload our lugagge while their taxi uncle sleeve hand bladder.
I remarked that the street looks as ulu as wad i saw on google maps while on the taxi. YES. I STALKED the hotel on google maps prior the trip. I was worried that the hotel is terrible and spooky . But the moment i step inside ....i had a pleasant surprise. SO LOVeLY can!!!!!! I lurve the pond outside that transform the ambience 540 degrees from what i saw from Google maps. We had a quick check in and I marvelled at the pretty corridor and mirror and flower and realise that each room actually has different design and color!! Me n Kc tio the so called 色情 room,while yao n lian got the greenish room. I guess our room is slightly bigger though. According to Lian our room has a smelly smell. But instead i find their room to have a anticeptic smell which i cannot tank.
So I did my little ritual with the flag and we head for lunch after tad going towards gugong. :)
i have to say kangchyi should try to scream out her order into someone ears next time....to break the first meal spell casted on u.
Things to mention:
-Yueyao found the toothpick amazingly
- I singlehandedly flip open the issue box
- The soup daebak
-Logo looks like Fei ge.
Next. 吃饱了可以飞了。We walk to the Mrt station Dongmen? and we took to station Jiantan.
And then we take a taxi to Gugong. Oh. And we bought the youyouka which I took some time to comprehend how the machine works. Thx Lianying for verbally coaching.
I have to say the taxis are everywhere!! We rarely had to wait.
*Taiwan Taxi 小黄 介绍*
There are generally two types of taxi but they look the same and same color
1st - XXX车队
To differentiate u have to see the mini rectangle thing that all taxis have ...I am not sure the technical name for it . But in SG it is the one u get to see the Green Taxi or Red Taxi word to know whether it is occupied. In Taiwan, those that has a name that ends with 车队,it means it belongs to a Large taxi group/company.
2nd - XXX / 租车
Those without 车队 means they are private taxis. i assume it means self declare taxi driver. I heard they prefer to fetch long distances. If they know that u are going to short distances places, they most likely help to hail another cab that belongs to a 车队。 ,Omg so friendly.help u hail cab..but if you hop on their cab beforehand, they have to go wherever u ask them to. They cannot reject to fetch you,and if they do, u can complain them to authority. Wah.
Sidenote: The cabbies so well equipped until like transformers. Some cabs even have WIF that they AAAre ever welling to share with you their password. Also, it is hard for taxi to cheat you becos now ppl have data plan and GPS is there to tell you whether you are scammed. But We,young travellers, do not have data plan except for Lian Bra..hmmmm.
We spent lots of time camwhoring and zipaiing outside the Gugong and i was attracted to a restaurant about 500 m away and i was 点醒by Kc to stop googaing over food.
We entered the place but we had no idea where on earth to buy tickets but was confused by this queue to get audio guide. we 傻傻queue at this weird queue and found out that the queue was ALL ThE WAY AT THe OTHER SIDe. We also heard that the place 5pm closed. RUSH HOUR. THen we were forced to put our bags n water at the 寄放处 and dear kc chose not to keep her beloved camera. She still had to keep away her camera in the end becos the merciless entrance guard said so.
After the hassle we finally get in n i was bombarded at how big this place was. HOw to finish seeing this place by 5pm?? We sort of zap through exhibits that we might be interested in...but they couldnt find wad they are most interested at er which is Clothing i think.
Suaku me practically grab every leaflet i see and shunbian help KC take. Let me summarize wad i learnt
1.The ancient foremost top consideration when they design furnitures is to combine Practicality and Aesthetics. Most (Every) furniture I see are made of quality wood and they show super delicate designs. I am quite proud at one point when we saw furnitures for an ancient study room which were mainly 四四方方 and uncomfortable. 我竟然神奇般冒出一句:这样他们才能坐得正。Applause for myself. Which makes total sense. Muz be some Zen Master 上身。
2. Curio Box 多宝箱
Refers to Boxes with complex and interesting design that were meant to keep some valuables. It also usually have some damn unique designs or compartment that can double as a Magician box...or a wooden kind of transformers that can have many pattern of 摆设。it brings lots of entertainment to the ancient ppl and i guess it is sth they like to show off ...to see who has a more interesting box. Of course the more 神奇 it is, the more expensive. i guess it is a sort of status symbol that the rich could have. and for it to contain other expensive small treasures since it is a BOX.
3. 小白菜 Jade
According to my own recollection and if i am not wrong, this white cabbage is a very unique piece. The top grade jade should little impurity.. However whoever the designer is, he managed to turn this not so valuable piece of jade into something valuable. He manage to make use of the flaws of this jade and turn it into its strength. He carved/ shaped it into a white cabbage and it looked very very real becos of its impurities at the right places. I guess this jade taught many ppl a lesson becos it depicts how a great artist can turn something thought to be useless to its greatest strength. Applause please.
4. Rhino Horn
We went to this exhibition that showcase many exhibits carved/made out of Rhino horn. It is said that emperors like to use this Rhino Horn to make cups and bowls. Why? According to this tourguide behind us, it is becos Rhino Horn will change color when it is in contact with posion !!!!! So amazing but i havent find out if it is true. If so, it is a great material for paranoid emperors. Wonder if Silver or Rhino Horn more expensive....
After all the rush hour, we head to Taipei 101 , but we had a small encounter with scary cabbie drivers asking us where we going. we act blur for a while, comtemplating if they are thugs...then they help us hail another cab..which i go Heng ah....they so scary...
Taxi driver also nicely tell us which is the better Eslite Bookstore to go
and poof! we reach. We barely had chance to camwhore becos we see huge teams of 观光客。We made the best decision ever. We ran for our lifes. To the lift...and aiya..despite pressing the close button the door opened for a team...we shifted ourselves close to the lift door. once we reach lvl Five.. we chiong out of the door and ran towards the ticket counter in this Artas Classy Place
. 
Yet the queue is still quite long. but the queue Behind us got even longer. It is quite worth the wait...I was very amazed at the lift ride where the whole lift blackout and when u look up , u see stars. ok..sounds like u fainted but the ceiling turns pretty!! then the 电梯先生 kindly tell us to swallow saliva to unblock ears if we have....but he said it so fast n in english that i almost cannot understand. Beside the lift doors there is a animated screen that shows how our lift is moving up the buiding.
And we arrived to evening view. Before we camwhore, (My photos fail so below mostly is KC camera grabbed de) the persoj handed us sterilized audio guide which looks like a 大哥大 transparent phone .
Also to mention i met my moe colleague. World So Small.

Then we werent paying attention to the audio guide anymore. Photos more impt. 
I shall spam my own face.
We went up to the lvl 91 open roof and got facesmacked by the strong wind. I tried to selca but due to low light...photos become blacknwhite. Nice horror effect We look like dementors. Then it became too cold for us. Back to 89 lvl.
We got confused by the icecream shape thingy and walked pass Antartica simulation gallery mirror walkway where everyone simultaneously kept to the right for wad reason i dunno and we arrived at spam Coral exhibits. 直接fast forward. We end up queueing damn long at a quite fast queue for the lift. Spam tourist area. Fast forward to amazing lift ride down and Kc completed her facemask dream. I was very amazed at the 101 types of mask available and 101 areas of the body u can put mask on. I feel more guyish when i see so many cheem technical girl stuff.
And after rounds of cantfinddirectionjustwalksstraight and we end up at the same Face Mask Shop again.
..
The taxi stand was actually right behind this shop. Clever us. So we took taxi to 通华夜市。which is 800m Radii away from the Taipei 101.
I find the place quite small...since this is my first encounter with a Taiwan Night Market. I am feeling quite guilty actually, for being not so daring to try more chicken stuff because of my mum’s repeated reminder before I set off...: 最好不要吃鸡肉!
She might as well tell me to eat vegetarian for the whole of my trip eh? But I did not heed her advice and bought ABIT of chicken. The smokey chicken wing which I advise ppl with poor shaky no strength teeth like me should avoid. It is too hard for me to chew and i cannot sense any meat. It is like eating crispy chicken which I cannot appreciate. Im tat sort that likes to eat chicken chest meat. Even if it is dry but I can feel the meat. HA! 
So we went to buy drinks and i think i bought sth related to plum drink...which i sort of regretted because I should try their signature tea drink or sth. But my plum drink is still nice and helped to sooth my throat and quench my thirst
.
I am quite amused by Yao’s expression at the bottom right hand corner...she tio shock after eating nice potato balls i guess.
Photo above is spam potato and our long time fave: 羊肉串!The malt sweet potato was a great disappointment because I tot it was smoking hot. But it turned out cold :( I dun like cold sweet potato. Sweet potato rule is that it must be hot if not not nice le :(
Which is why the fried potato balls was DAMN Nice!!! And super cute! Each ball turns out so Q and 弹牙!!
And then it started rain...which the uncle proceed to bring out his Huge Umbrella very 淡定ly.
So we flag for a taxi and went back to our hotel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is this 色情??
I Finally Finish this post OMG. HAPPY MAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX~
I guess the coming posts will be less naggy than this one...I will promise you~~ not.
BYE!
*ends with my face and airport fashion*
Hi Peeps!!
Recently I have came across B.A.P One Shot song...OMG. LOVE IT!!!!!!
Its Kinda Long...u can skip to the 0.26 (might as well dun skip but just in case u are mislead by the first 25 seconds which is quite different from the mood of the real mv)
The song is really my cup of tea. Grandness and emo-ness and angst...lots of angst and rage.
Their dance is really cool and ZAI also. Oh If you hear a very familiar voice in the mv i think it would be Daehyun, the vocal.
His voice sounded like Daesung to me and he look abit like TOP and some pictures with the correct angle look like GD to me. Can you imagine...if someone has the combined features of Top, GD, Taeyang, Seungri but has the voice of daesung?
Okay this person not hybrid of them LOL. but He has the eyes of TOP, i think...and the voice of Daesung hahahahaha.
Check the second video to see if he looks like TOP or not.
He is only one year older than me...heng ah. I scared very soon all the idol groups come out become younger than me liao.
Second fave guy of the group also another vocal, but his voice not as bright as Daehyun i think. I call him the younger version of Yoo Seung Ho.( even though Yoo Seung Ho is quite young also but this guy look less mature than him)
OMY. This one same age as me. These two guys are agreed most outstanding (in terms of looks) in this group.

9.56AM :

This morning has a perfect weather to sleep in. *yawning for the 6th time*
Oh my. I love this font. and the weather.
*7th yawn*
I shall share some of the things that I have seen on Facebook.
-Lasso Slippers-

Nice?
I tot it is quite cool to be braiding your own slippers. It looks beri comfy also.
Google search tells me that it is designed by French designer Gaspard Tiné-Berès.
I guess that there are very few people here has the habit of wearing shoes/slippers/socks at home.

I am one of those few that actually does have the habit yo.. and i recently bought a sock-shoe for $2 from Daiso.
kekeke. It is the only one out of the whole rack thus I didnt get to choose the design/find a new one.
Quite cute and comfy too.
At the bottom/sole, there are rubbery white dots that acts as a antislip function, giving you lots of friction as you walk on smooth surfaces...
Till now i am still trying to persuade ppl to do the same as me, to wear shoes/slippers at home.
Well, if your feet is well protected from coldness, there are less chances that you will catch a cold and fall sick as verified by Le Sock. I even wear socks to sleep. Without it i will feel damn cold , even if the weather is hot. #insecure #insomnia
Does this works? hmmm
*hears candy crush music and wakes up*
*but sky damn dark, falls back to sleep*
*alarm rings, snooze*
*alarm rings again,snooze*
*alarm rings again, sees time. 6.30!!!!! thinks for a while. becos i will randomly set the clock to be randomminutes faster. and if i not wrong should be abt 30 mins faster.*
Crawls out of bed to see the real clock, and realise i am wrong. My alarm is 40 mins faster. 540 a.m. only. This comes as a pleasant purposefully designed surprise by me since i am the one that set the alarm to be faster and becos i intended to wake up at 6am.
*dives to my bed and continue sleeping*
*body clock rings in my mind and i jerk awake*
ha! 615am. late liao. Driving lesson starts at 730. Then, I found out from my dad that my mum woke up at 5am becos she cant sleep therefore she played candycrush. ???!!!?!?!?!?!??!
At 645,I ran out of house Nd chiong to Mrt. The last time i ran at this timing was freaking months ago, as i have to chiong for school to catch the last train that can escort me to school on time. and that was a daily routine. How nostalgic as i get to run this time round, all thanks to my fingers that went berserk to click on the earliest timing for driving lesson even though my brain was shouting NOooOoOOOo.
What made the run worse was that my new shoes were a size bigger than wad i normaly wear. why did i buy
those shoes again?
Reach bukit gombak at 720,meaning that i missed the shuttle bus that came at 710. the nxt bus comes at 730.
Thus, my second running man episode begins. i ran/walk/crawl/staggered from bukit gombak to bbdc. and reach at 732.
*curtsies with perspiration flowing from forehead n drips from the chin*
So my lesson begins, thankfully cars hve aircon eh.
The lesson was fun!!!!
becos of the endless praises and encouragement from
instructor haha! but i think he too kind la. how talented can i be when i keep drifting off the lane. He was also very very chatty. I had great training to multitask throughout. Accelerate smoothly...let go accelerator..turn properly without hands crossing into a lock braid. initially i tot it is quite impossible for me to do sth as silly as locking my hands. But i realise i kept locking my hands without knowing!!! also i hav to listen from him switch from conversation like how aeroplanes have similar signal lights....n wad sch i am from....wad cca....to instruction/advice/praise/tip like how to revenge in damn funny ways like spraying water hard enuf to annoy ppl behind if they honk me...juz joking la...how to interpret if i drifting out of lanes and i hv to reply his talks while concentrating on my turns n remember to stop whenever appropriate.
after the lesson of driving round n round to practise right turns, i chiong to grab a Gua to eat n went for evaluation for ftt.
Voila! even though i failed 8 booklets in the previous 2 practice that i did last week, i was lucky enuf to pass at the minimal passing rate. 90%. 45/50
heng ah...
so happy can. wad a fruitful episode. tell me ur interesting experience if u hav when u attend ur driving lessons yo?

For someone that didnt read the comics or play with the toys, the movie was enjoyable for me. (majority due to Lee byung Hun's prescence).. Who cares about bad plot? It is fun and ego levelling to be able to have mental interactions with urself throughout the movie and of course crack inside jokes and laugh With UrSelf . im not trying to be sarcastic. I do enjoy yo. Because it is easier to find a pin in the sea than finding someone that can understand your 笑点 and appreciate the same stuff as urself.
*excited each time i think of him*
Last last sunday I managed to watch 3/4 of GI Joe rise of the cobra and I knew i liked the show due to the cheeeem technology and the纠结plot. Not to mention that I was on cloud nine when i saw joseph gordon levitt ( the second male lead in Inception yo...google pls), and was surprised when Lee byung hun appeared. Hah! Didnt like or notice him before even though I knew he is 天王级 in korea.
Now i know why.
超。有。魅。力。
I didnt know he and Snake eyes were ninjas in the show until I read wikipedia.
And you know Now you know that i love ninjas...AHHHHHHHH
okay. let me review the new movie abit. *inserts spoiler warning*
I was a little confused when the movie first started. The whole ambushing...making a perfect circular hole through the fence and some shooting and then suddenly the mission is sort of completed and u dun even what the mission is about. Next u find Flint ( a person) acting on his own and then the rest of the teammates worried over him getting in some danger that i am too stupid to understand and then i almost tot he betrayed the JOE team becos i heard someone say to another one... to shoot the rascal Flint.( almost wondered if i was watching the movie with my eyes closed). Suddenly U get to see a close up on a olive green flag and *cries* i dun even noe why...and wad just happened.
hahahaa. then u see a quick recap by a low deep voiceover explaining explicitly (with cool swivelling animation that i almost used for powerpoint presentation )about who are the new good guys becos apparently the cast have changed much from the previous cast. I thank you for being so kind to give me a big hint that Flint wasnt a traitor and also hinting me to erase my memory of the plot that just happened. I know u just want me to have some fun and tense excitement while getting used to see the newcomers faces. :') how kind of u. I shall call that a cool warm up.
We move on to seeing two guys discussing seriously over some battling strategies or some sort..just to find out that they were actually playing video games. *as i reach here, i cleverly note that the misson earlier really has no much involvement in the main plot*
We get to scenes that were great attempts to make the audience laugh with the spinning around joke, sending girls out of room crying or screaming joke, mini PK 比赛 with unprecedented (is this how u use this word?) scary karaoke stakes that involves huge guns to bring down poor cupcakes accurately and fouling ur opponent by pulling off a well timed foul. okay. i know my english is bad. my purpose is to confuse u so that u dun understand the spoilers yo.
hmmm..i cant believe i am recalling the movie after one week since i watched it. im blogging this becos i dun wan to forget this movie T.T . okay!
We get to see our baddie president that managed to swop himself with the real one and sends off the joes to a mission that he planned for N years i supposed so as to strike his eyesores away with a beautiful excuse.
The joes obediently went for their mission and someone purposely talked about missing Snake eyes( the black ninja that vowed not to talk after his sheefu 师傅 got killed by Stormshadow the white ninja..aka Lee Byung Hun 李炳宪 ) Hhahaahaha almost laughed at this inappropriate, supposedly not funny part because that scriptline is quite impt it is there to remind me that one of my fave person is not joining the mission.
My deduced reasons that he didnt go for the mission could be :
1) Not only he is a ninja,He can predict the future and he knows that the mission is a scheming plot by the fake president. Since he cannot talk, he didnt tell the others not to go. but he secretly prepared backup plan eh?
2) So that my most fave White ninja can appear in the most cool/scary/surprising way in the later part which i totallly loved. wahhahhahaha
So i shall fast forward to say that our joes mission failed obviously. becos robotic fireflies blasted up the whole place and killed Duke...the male lead in the previous movie. Thus Roadblock aka Dwayne Johnson can become lead eh.
So three only surviving joes managed to figure out that bad guy is President with 100percent surety with amazing logic. and got back to Roadblock old home after they just see an airbase in the desert. I repeat. THEY GOT HOME AFTER THEY JUST SIMPLY SEE, SAW, LOOK at that airbase. Maybe this movie more high tech than the previous one becos they probably found a teleportation portal in that airbase.
At the same time lee byung hun disguising as Snake eyes who is declared to the world by Fake President to be a bad guy got caught on purpose so that Fake President can know where the Cobra Commander and his DIY pet Destro ( a guy who was disfigured last movie and had instant plastic surgery due to cool nanotechnology to have a face made of metal.) from last movie were imprisoned. Cos nation wide declared bad guys are kept in confidential place that FakePresident cannot find out but real president knows but would not say. really? why? why no one tell fake president where bad guys are kept?
So "Snakeeyes" got a friendly welcome with the insane prison warden who is having a one sided conversation with himself since we ALL KNOw that Snake eyes is not supposed to talk becos of that vow u noe. BUT the impossible thing happned. "Snake eyes" talked. Mask reveal. he turns out to be Stormshadow.
?!!? but they carry on imprisoning him?!!?!,nvm that they got the wrong person?!!!?! so that prison warden can add on to his collection of BAD GUYS GI Joes Series. So we have three huge cylinders that Bad guys are put in with chemical that makes them as good as preserved vegetables 植物人 but with the brain able to think and see n hear.
*cues lee byung hun action time*
He is the perfect role to rescue the baddest Cobra and Destro becos he can control his heart to stop beating with his ninja skills. This is enuf to bewilder and cause panic in prison scientists that are monitoring the bad guys in cylinder. They pull Byunghun out to do some emergency rescue and thereby removing the chemical that makes him a vegetable. This is enough for byunghun to grab scientist and breaks free and rescues bad guys after cool ninja-ing and ends with the same welcome sentence that Prison warden told him at the start. only that he says it with such enthusiasm and cute face that made me smile : Welcome to hell. (ohno. i sadistic.)
However, I cant rmb much but I know the place got blasted up again and our dear hero here got his whole back burnt due to the fire. and we see him being supported out of the place with amazing staggering acting skills and sent off for healing at some faraway mountain by a .....SHAMAN? is that what you call that woman? hmm.
Then we see Snakes eyes ninjaiing with another new female ninja called Jinx, who is cousin of white ninja Stormbreaker and u see another sheefu reminding Snake eyes not to be so harsh on Jinx just because she is Storm Shadow ( I repeat. Lee byung hun) 's cousin.
左看右看上看下看都不像 cousin
The ninjas received their mission from the sheefu.
next they are off to some mountain where Storm Shadow is healing ( OUCH. That healing process looks painful.) I quite like the part where i see Jinx following Snake eyes along so faithfully. I can feel that Jinx has been secretly liking Snake eyes for very long and feel very happy for this field trip to catch her cousin even though the trip is going to be silent since Snake eyes cannot talk to her eh. They got telepathy can liao. and this is going to be the legendary ninja fight that is probably the only scene that other ppl can appreciate throughout the whole movie.
It is a combination of ultimate extreme flying fox and catching game as u see many red ninjas fighting against Jinx and Snake eyes after Jinx had fought off the highly skilled Shaman and Jinx also managed to drugged Storm Shadow when the WHITENBLACK ninjas having their usual one to one battle.
I have to mention that it is highly admirable of Storm Shadow to stick to his signature ninja shuriken weapons to fight against the guns of Snake Eyes. It was quite a funny scene as though of a silent comedy show.
okay back to Storm Shadow being drugged and put into a sleeping bag or some sort and was thrown down the mountain by Snake eyes so that he and Jinx can fight off those cute red ninjas and we realise the sleeping bag was connected to some cables across mountains. Thus Stormshadow had the most exciting cable car experience while he was drug.
Fast forward to the part where Snake eyes appeared out after we see the snow mountains disintegrated above him and we heaved a sigh of relief to see that he didnt die and managed to catch the sleeping bag. Here is the funniest part : we see Jinx literally flopped on Snake eyes like a fangirl and saying Thank Goodness. OK. LOVE LINE OF SNAKE EYES AND JINX ENDS HERE. And I shall end here. becos this post had dragged for a week and the most emotional part is coming up next and will be the biggest spoiler for the character of Stormshadow. I totally melt for him becos he has been living with that kind of anger...and being blamed for sth u didnt do for so many years oh my... Snake eyes sure feel bad too eh? Since no one is going to read this...does it matter if i stop abruptly here? hmmmmmmm . kthxbye
*excited each time i think of him*
Last last sunday I managed to watch 3/4 of GI Joe rise of the cobra and I knew i liked the show due to the cheeeem technology and the纠结plot. Not to mention that I was on cloud nine when i saw joseph gordon levitt ( the second male lead in Inception yo...google pls), and was surprised when Lee byung hun appeared. Hah! Didnt like or notice him before even though I knew he is 天王级 in korea.
Now i know why.
超。有。魅。力。
I didnt know he and Snake eyes were ninjas in the show until I read wikipedia.
okay. let me review the new movie abit. *inserts spoiler warning*
I was a little confused when the movie first started. The whole ambushing...making a perfect circular hole through the fence and some shooting and then suddenly the mission is sort of completed and u dun even what the mission is about. Next u find Flint ( a person) acting on his own and then the rest of the teammates worried over him getting in some danger that i am too stupid to understand and then i almost tot he betrayed the JOE team becos i heard someone say to another one... to shoot the rascal Flint.( almost wondered if i was watching the movie with my eyes closed). Suddenly U get to see a close up on a olive green flag and *cries* i dun even noe why...and wad just happened.
hahahaa. then u see a quick recap by a low deep voiceover explaining explicitly (with cool swivelling animation that i almost used for powerpoint presentation )about who are the new good guys becos apparently the cast have changed much from the previous cast. I thank you for being so kind to give me a big hint that Flint wasnt a traitor and also hinting me to erase my memory of the plot that just happened. I know u just want me to have some fun and tense excitement while getting used to see the newcomers faces. :') how kind of u. I shall call that a cool warm up.
We move on to seeing two guys discussing seriously over some battling strategies or some sort..just to find out that they were actually playing video games. *as i reach here, i cleverly note that the misson earlier really has no much involvement in the main plot*
We get to scenes that were great attempts to make the audience laugh with the spinning around joke, sending girls out of room crying or screaming joke, mini PK 比赛 with unprecedented (is this how u use this word?) scary karaoke stakes that involves huge guns to bring down poor cupcakes accurately and fouling ur opponent by pulling off a well timed foul. okay. i know my english is bad. my purpose is to confuse u so that u dun understand the spoilers yo.
hmmm..i cant believe i am recalling the movie after one week since i watched it. im blogging this becos i dun wan to forget this movie T.T . okay!
We get to see our baddie president that managed to swop himself with the real one and sends off the joes to a mission that he planned for N years i supposed so as to strike his eyesores away with a beautiful excuse.
The joes obediently went for their mission and someone purposely talked about missing Snake eyes( the black ninja that vowed not to talk after his sheefu 师傅 got killed by Stormshadow the white ninja..aka Lee Byung Hun 李炳宪 ) Hhahaahaha almost laughed at this inappropriate, supposedly not funny part because that scriptline is quite impt it is there to remind me that one of my fave person is not joining the mission.
My deduced reasons that he didnt go for the mission could be :
1) Not only he is a ninja,He can predict the future and he knows that the mission is a scheming plot by the fake president. Since he cannot talk, he didnt tell the others not to go. but he secretly prepared backup plan eh?
2) So that my most fave White ninja can appear in the most cool/scary/surprising way in the later part which i totallly loved. wahhahhahaha
So i shall fast forward to say that our joes mission failed obviously. becos robotic fireflies blasted up the whole place and killed Duke...the male lead in the previous movie. Thus Roadblock aka Dwayne Johnson can become lead eh.
So three only surviving joes managed to figure out that bad guy is President with 100percent surety with amazing logic. and got back to Roadblock old home after they just see an airbase in the desert. I repeat. THEY GOT HOME AFTER THEY JUST SIMPLY SEE, SAW, LOOK at that airbase. Maybe this movie more high tech than the previous one becos they probably found a teleportation portal in that airbase.
At the same time lee byung hun disguising as Snake eyes who is declared to the world by Fake President to be a bad guy got caught on purpose so that Fake President can know where the Cobra Commander and his DIY pet Destro ( a guy who was disfigured last movie and had instant plastic surgery due to cool nanotechnology to have a face made of metal.) from last movie were imprisoned. Cos nation wide declared bad guys are kept in confidential place that FakePresident cannot find out but real president knows but would not say. really? why? why no one tell fake president where bad guys are kept?
So "Snakeeyes" got a friendly welcome with the insane prison warden who is having a one sided conversation with himself since we ALL KNOw that Snake eyes is not supposed to talk becos of that vow u noe. BUT the impossible thing happned. "Snake eyes" talked. Mask reveal. he turns out to be Stormshadow.
?!!? but they carry on imprisoning him?!!?!,nvm that they got the wrong person?!!!?! so that prison warden can add on to his collection of BAD GUYS GI Joes Series. So we have three huge cylinders that Bad guys are put in with chemical that makes them as good as preserved vegetables 植物人 but with the brain able to think and see n hear.
*cues lee byung hun action time*
He is the perfect role to rescue the baddest Cobra and Destro becos he can control his heart to stop beating with his ninja skills. This is enuf to bewilder and cause panic in prison scientists that are monitoring the bad guys in cylinder. They pull Byunghun out to do some emergency rescue and thereby removing the chemical that makes him a vegetable. This is enough for byunghun to grab scientist and breaks free and rescues bad guys after cool ninja-ing and ends with the same welcome sentence that Prison warden told him at the start. only that he says it with such enthusiasm and cute face that made me smile : Welcome to hell. (ohno. i sadistic.)
