Summer Holiday

It's considered my term break - i.e. no need to think about studies at all. And it's great!

Two things on my must-do list this "Summer Holiday" are:

(1) Catch the Great Singapore Sale.

(2) Watch Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Managed to complete both before EOD.

Anyway, GSS was disappointing. My BFF and I decided to go shopping at VivoCity. Many times I've been there, I always thought, must come one of these days with the BFF to shop...so many shops. And we felt the excitement when we first arrived, wah..like so many discounts. But, after spending the whole night there....i went home with....a Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. She did better - at least bought a pair of shoes. Wonder what's wrong with us?! Such poort shoppers?!

Rise of the Silver Surfer was great! I confirm it the best movie I've seen this year. It's kinda odd because I vaguely remember the Fantastic Four cartoons, and that they were never really very interesting. It was either because the drawings were not so great, or that their powers were not attractive to me, or that working in a team of four just doesn't seem very exciting or powerful of the superheros.

But, I think the Fantastic Four movie franchise is by far the best of all the comics adapted to movie efforts. Not sure if the Superman/ Batman/ Spiderman fans would be offended. Think about it, the movie turned a boring comic/ cartoon into a Summer Blockbuster with really good looking characters, loads of actions and explosions, and the must have end of the world scenario.


The must-do items are completed. Now, kinda just waiting for the new torturous term to begin again....

Well, in the words of the Human Torch...."Flame On!".
