HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR~!!!
XD~ Wishing everyone a really good year ahead`!
My chinese new year are always the same throughout these few years. The same old schedule for the first and second day. The third day however was never planned. This year however, we have an additional day for PH so well, it was really good. Will be going to my ex-boss's house on the third day. Then after which, the following day will have to go back to reality where my project is going to be due this Saturday...=_=''
During CNY eve, I was painting my nails, together with my two sisters. Then at 12 midnight, we have to go out to the living room where our parents prayed to the sky god. As my younger sis XB went out, she said "be careful of the nail polish because..." And then my elder sister knocked onto the seat, that has the nail polish remover and other nail polish as well.
And the nail polish remover fell, spilling its liquid out.
And I said my first vulgar word of the new year then. "F**K~" Then when I was telling them how I said my first vulgar word, I said the second vulgar word of the new year. "F**K" again..=_='' Blur sotong I am huh...-_-''
I saw a couple of job vacancies but am too lazy to post my ugly looking resume to the company. And I need to take some passport pictures of myself first before I can send the resume. sigh...so troublesome. I feel like not doing anything until I finished my exams, but I think I should start early as well.
Will be having all my relatives tomorrow. Sigh, will be a tiring day tomorrow~!
Take care~!

I went to catch this movie Wallace and Gromit in The Curse of the Wererabbit.
IT WAS FANTASTIC!!!!!
I was like laughing and my eyes were glued to the screen throughout the show!!! The whole claymation was so brilliantly executed and I really have to congratulate the animators for such a marvellous animation.
But before the movie starts, they had a short animation from Madacascar, which is a story on how the penguins rescued their younger penguin and ended up celebrating Christmas. That is also hilarious! The conversation between the penguins, the "military" oriented head penguin dishing out offers to the fellow "officers". Their methods of rescue is silly yet amusing.
Okay, moving on to the main movie, it tells a story of how Anti-pesto (their company) faces a major pest that had been terrorising the town's vegetables. And to add on to their troubles, the Giant Vegetable competition is up and coming in a week's time and the pest is reported A GIANT WERERABBIT! *thunder strikes*
How will Wallace and his trusty sidekick Gromit the dog saved the town from the giant pest? Well, I'm not going to say any spoilers for this..hahaha..PLEASE GO WATCH IT YOURSELVES!!! XD
But the whole movie is seriously funny. GROMIT IS SOOOOO CUTE!!! I got to take my hats off to the animators for creating such a cute dog!! He doesn't have a mouth, so his facial expressions are only done with his eyes and brows. He used alot of hand motions too. But even with few movements, you can really guessed what Gromit is thinking. I really like certain scenes where Gromit was fighting with another dog, where he looks extremely exaspperated by Wallace's silliness and the way he still loves Wallace even though Wallace can be an idiot at times.
Wallace, he's also another funny character. But most of the time, both characters really make the scenes funny. And not to mention the rabbits, THEY ARE SOOOOOO CUTEE!!!!! I wish I have one cute clay rabbit like that...ahhha...
PLEASE GO WATCH IT!!!! I give it a 5/5! XD And its my first movie of the year somemore...heheheeh....
Next movie I'm going to catch: Memoirs of the Geisha~
I love Chicago the movie, so I expect alot from the director to make this movie a real good one. So I MUST WATCH IT! hhehehe

Is it me, or does everyone have a bad start to 2006??
First is the complaints on the New Year's Day event in Orchard, where many girls claimed that they got molested by the crowd of men. First, they sprayed foam on their face, then, while the girls frantically wiped their faces, the men attacked, groping and touching. Good thing I never get to go out to celebrate, although I actually went down to my neighbourhood party for like 20 minutes, and went back home again. Why? Because of the STUPID FOAM SPRAYS AROUND!!! So intimidating!! And the little kids just sprayed any o how around, without caring about the surrounding passer-bys. Then I saw one group of lion dance group guys running around, then one of them took the spray and sprayed at a teenage girl, and told her she's cute. WTF!
Want to chase the girl, don't spray the foam lah!! Very fun isit??? But then again, the teenage girl may not mind, because she ran after the guy with a spray can too..doh!
I cannot hang around there because I find it really childish, alittle dangerous, and I'm really tired and sleepy by then. So I ended up spending my New Year at home. For the first time, I like my home better than outdoors.
This is only one example of bad starts, but I think I shall not elaborate even more. A couple of friends actually had some problems so this makes me wonder if 2006 can be better than 2005. What's worse is the recent news never seem to give out happy news. This week, Germany's ice-skating rink collapse, killing a handful of people; US mine collapse as well, killing some miners, Iraq suicide bomber just killed some people as well and a part of Indonesia had a landslide, due to illegal mining...Tell me what are the good news?
Oh yeah, btw, here's a picture of the character that I'm cosplaying, Youko from XXXHolic. This is the costume I'm going to wear on Cosfest~~ hehehe...
Dan will be doing Watanuki (the guy on right) and Dan's friend will be doing Doumeki. And XB will do a side girl character, which is like one of those Japanese folktale fairy...I CAN'T WAIT!!! ^_^

I'm kinda anticipating this whole new year~! Will be graduating in late Feb and I have to start looking for a job now. =_= Kinda stressed but I guessed I'll be able to pull through~! I'll not fall into pessimism again this year! That's one of my resolution for this year.
I haven't been updating this blog actually..hhaha...Felt lazy as I have to maintain 2 blogs and is kinda tiring. But I will post now and then in here because I started this blog at the same time as when I started my interest in cosplaying. Thinking back, I felt really thrilled to cosplaying when I went to EOY 04. I remembered the Naruto team was the most impressive then and I was really excited and had the urge to cosplay my favorite character Itachi. But my initial character that I was supposed to do was Anbu Kabuto. Ended up being psycho-ed by Acktosh and I decided to switch to Anbu Itachi instead. Then on that day, Kaishi (who is now MIA) lent me his Akatsuki coat and I become, Akatsuki Itachi with Anbu vest inside. Needless to say, I enjoyed the whole cosplay event and I'll never forget this debut cosplay.
Then, I initially decide to cosplay Rider from Fate Stay Night, but after much consideration, and some friends commenting that it is too sexy and I'll get stalked for that role, I decided to drop that idea. Instead, I get invited by Kaishi and Requiem into the Bleach Group as Ukitake Jyuushiro. And I became part of the biggest and impressive group in EOY 05. Looking back, my Ukitake isn't up to standard, I need to have that serene look which I lack of. But then again, no one's perfect. but I rated my Ukitake cosplay about 70%. 30% lost to my face, black hair that keeps popping out, OOC moments.
This new year, I'll be doing Youko from XXXHolic, with Dan and her friend from NYP. We just decided the costume, which after months of thinking, I waited for my XXXHolic Calender and saw a perfect costume, which Dan and I would be able to afford. My costume will be a simple strapless lace-rimmed dress and lots of beads to go with it. Simply perfect for a low-budget me.
EOY 06, well, I have no plans yet. My wishlist is tripled but I'll need to wait till I'm secured with a good job before I can attempt to make those costumes.
Finally, I'll end with my resolution tagline for year 2006:
Study/Work hard, Play hard and Pray hard. :P
