sad news...

just had a conversation with a boy...
i know some of you read this...
okie after that short exchange... i'm starting to wonder if we as officers have been spoonfeeding boys with instructions or whether if the squad leaders really just do not know how they are suppose to go about their jobs and how to be accountable...

maybe it's just the different culture... but honestly... why am i chasing??? i think the question is... should i even BE chasing...

okie... i really wonder why squad leaders dun have the boys' contact number... and can you actually believe it when the squad leader told me that it's because the guy doesn't come for parade often... it's not that he dosen't know his home's number... he dosen't know his handphone number... however that's not what i'm pissed about... what i'm pissed about is the fact that he was not pro-active enought to get his number... and if that not enough.. he didn't tell me he couldn't reach him... so i had to call him back... then i had to tell him what to do... i actually cannot believe this things are happening in the company... if he actually called back to tell me that he couldn't reach him i may not be as pissed but this is unfortunately not acceptable... and the worse thing is... this guy is suppose to be quite capable... this is really quite sad... i'm actually wondering how the relationships of squad leaders and their members are... this is probably something to look into...

i wonder what other unconcievable things are happening in the company that will shock me...

goblet of fire...

hmmm... harry potter, the goblet of fire is really a great show... since most peoplehave already read the book prior to this... this counts as spoiling as much as xiaxue counts as a really polite person...
okie... as usual there is one so much time that a movie can run for... in this case 157 minutes... even then... lots of parts have been excluded from the flick... others have been unfortunately shorten... however... i must say that the essence of the book wasn't not lost... at most exceeding most legal spped limits...
certain characters which were part of the book were left out... like winky... barty crouch's house elf... in the book she was the one who stole harry's wand and used it to cast the dark mark... but in the show she was none exisitant... wonder if she'll turn up later...
barty crouch junior was then credited with the evil deed... i bet he's happy he got more screen time... barty crouch junior was suppose to have straw coloured hair in the book but in the flick he was black haired... perhaps i remembered wrongly...
they left out the world cup quidditch match as well... so what if they show them fly in... i want watch a quidditch match... so sad...
they left out the dragon fighting scenes of the other tri-wizard champions... given that the book also had only short paragraphs on this... i can't really blame the movie makers... but it would have bee nice... anyways... harry's fight with the dragon was quite over ratted... don't remenber them actually leaving the arena...
they also failed to mentioned that de fluer is part veele... (is this how to spell it??? i can't be too sure...)
they left out hargrid's up and down relationship with mdm maxime... she apparently is half giant but was appalled when hargrid talked about it...
they left out muc of rita skeeter's screen time... she was apparently more irrating and ommipresent that protrayed in the movie... she was apparently an unregistered (can't remenber the term now... but she could transfigure into a beetle... hence she snuck up on everyone's secret meetings...) anyhow... herminoe then cleverly deduced this and threatened her and got her kicked out off the school grounds... therefore i don't think she was actually suppose to be there at the last task...
harry looked like he didn't have much help in the movie... but actually everyone who was anyone tried to help harry in the book... mad-eye taught him how to use a summoning spell to get his broom... befre his fight with the dragon... the minister actually offered to help him in the next task if he needed any...
they left out the blast ended skwerts... hahahaha... they were funny... really wanted to see one on screen... they showed on from one of the previous flick but that was such a tiny one... there was suppose to be a huge one in the maze...
not to sound like they missed out on much... but really how are people who don't read the book be able to understand the story later... i'm quite sure some of the crap i've mentioned will turn up later... anyways these are just the ones that i could remember... if you have any questions kindly fill it in the comments... i will try to answer it of clarify it when my exams are over... hahahahaha...
watch the movie...

singaporeans/complainers...

i cannot believe that it has actually reached a stage that another blog has to close down...
and after i added that blog to my links...
it's a sad day in singapore today... the blog by famous comic strip writer chew chew has been shut down... the reason being that people aren't happy with the post that have been post by the artist... the warth of these people must have been bad to cause him to shut down his blog...
singaporeans apparently complain about everything...
i'm complaining right now!!!
BUT... how is it that singaporeans are so hard up that even after people get replied to their email that they still push for their stand that cause people to shut down... due to such things... people then complain that singapore has NO.. yes... NO creative people and culture... well i hope you guys out there are happy... now i've got one less blog to read...
sad sad day...

hmmm... today i went to school to find out that there is actually no lecture... serves me right for not reading the school announcements... hahaha... total waste of my time...

so i went to jurong library to look for some books... hahaha... sound like very hardworking... but it's more of a since we are there... so we went...

since we were there and i had to go home i took 52!!! hahaha... sounds like i'm abit obsessed... okie... it's really because i was there... yup so i took 52 home... the driver ran another ember light again... haahaha...

hmmm... the side bar in increasing in size...
so if u are wondering... i usually only read these few... it's because i can usually only remember a few blog addresses... hahaha...
so if u have a blog for me to read... then tell me!!! then if i read it constantly enough then i'll add it... coz i'll not be able to remember the addresses... so i've started using the side bar...
since it's there... might as well...
