Merry Christmas

time really flies. another 2 weeks have past since my last post. n today is christmas! cant help but feeling a bit excited, eventhough it is a stay-home-do-work day.

right after my last post, talking about all the longing for movies n break, the next day my uncle decided to have a family outing, dinner and movie :) we watched 'The Warlords' (投名状), starring Jet Li, Andy Lau and Takeshi Kaneshiro. it is one of the movies that i feel like watching these days but no time for it until the outing. the movie looks quite good in the trailer, and Takeshi Kaneshiro is one of the actors hahaha..the movie turned out to be good! better than what i expected. not just pure killings but more about human relationship, reality and life. the movie lasted for 2 hours, and when the movie ended, i realise my joints were kind of stucked..didnt really move much but just focus on the movie itself all the while hahaa..lucky i didnt leave the cinema with the comment 'nothing special...thank god at least got takeshi'. quite a good movie, worth watching :) and the outing was great. had a wonderful time. enjoyed the night

then..life moves on. nothing too special happen. for the week in the lab, things were not too good..still cant get the results that i am supposed to get. cracking my head thinking about what went wrong..one day finally found out that one of the volume of the solutions that i added in was wrong! was quite happy at first and thought that i really solved the problem, but then...when i rerun the test, NO RESULTS AGAIN.......god. i really dont know whats wrong. haih..going to try another method tomorrow. hopefully it works.

last friday (21/12/07) my office had an end-year bash, to thank everyone that has contributed something to the group. was really happy that one of my bosses, John, and his family made it for the event. always like to see them, such a happy family..had a good time catching up things with them. great night :)

then sunday (23/12/07)..went to the christmas event in the church with Eugene How. the event was great, like last year's. i always like their idea of holding a candle in the hand. the view of a sea of lights on the screen showing everyone in the hall just looked magnificant. next year will i still be joining their celebration? god knows..

then yesterday (24/12/07)..Christmas Eve! so decided to give myself a half-day break. went to Mid Valley and catched a movie, 'Alvin and the Chipmunks'. not good..eventhough i like the chipmunks, since i was still a small girl. the chipmunks were really cute...but the story line was just too normal. too much of singing. too bad..i thought i can have the feeling as the one i have for transformers, watching childhood favourite cartoons and enjoying it very very much, but sadly, i dont. the shopping mall was so crowded. suffocating..couldnt shop properly, and didnt really have time for it, because had to rush to go for a christmas pot-luck gathering at my lab mate's house. the gathering was quite fun..and i learned how to play mah jong hehehee..and we had a very lucky position with very good 'feng-shui', whereby anyone who sat there would win the game! all the winnings were from the people who sat there last night haha..interesting. anyway quite a nice outing.

thats all for the long long happier story..is life really better? hmmm maybe. i guess so..but i guess i will only have the greatest joy if things turn out well in the lab. my wish for this christmas..and also hope everyone that i care would be happy. Merry Christmas :)
