Movie --- Salt

One of those rare movie events sponsored by my company especially after 2008.

Nonetheless, the chosen movie was Salt! Blamer is a huge fan of Angelina Jolie, she thinks Jolie is really beautiful... ... I dun share the same sentiments though. To me, Blamer is the most beautiful (and everyone goes brrr... ...) Pardon me but must do this once in a while... ...

Bought extra food for my friends who were supposed to join us but they were late.

As we came straight from the office. I just couldn't wait any longer... ...

Oops caught in the act!

Jay Chou World Tour

Yup an exciting day for me as it was my virgin paid-out-of-my-own-pocket concert.

Courtesy of my colleague if not I wouldn't be able to get my hands on the tics.

At the entrance.

Just look at the queue. If I'm not wrong, our tickets was the second added night. The organisers added a third night due to the sold out crowd.

We went on a weekday, no time for dinner except to grab a quick bite from subway.

All the Jay Chou collectibles.

The crowd, all the way to the top.

The stage which was covered in black to keep us in suspense.

Finally, 'he' appeared!

And disappeared again... ...

Finally, the 'real' him was in the ball.

A lot of computer graphics used in this concert, lighting up the stage in different colours.

However, he was so far away, it was better to just watch the screen.

Whoa out came the piano. At least no more graphics, was starting to get a bit disappointed. I was expecting more props and stuffs, but Blamer was telling me that he was getting old le, cannot jump around anymore.

Fireworks! At least getting some of my money's worth.

Suddenly a gigantic Jay appeared. Machiam like gorzilla. Wa ha ha.

Yup that spells the end to my virgin paid-out-of-my-own-pocket concert, couldn't really "connect" with this concert with Jay singing most of the new songs from the new album.

On our way back to take the MRT, we witnessed quite a sight. How can SBStransit or SMRT say they are not earning $$$???

Movie Dates 2009

Rem how Leecher always lament that I deprived him of catching movies in the theaters? Ever since our Gold Class Experience in Jan 2009, here are some of the movies that we caught last year. Penning this down, so he has no more excuses to say that he's being deprived!

Sunshine Cleaning

The movie that got Leecher hooked on Amy Adams. Got 4 X tickets, so I passed it to lil bro and gf to enjoy.

Shinjuku Incident

Had to change my complimentary pass into actual tickets.

The usual comfort food - hotdog & popcorn & coke.

The image of Daniel Wu's hand on the ground took me by surprise during the movie & I lost my appetite therefore. My low level of tolerance towards gruesome images.

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
*pictures courtesy of Xiaobin from mypapers :)

The one picture that gave us 1 day of fame when it was featured on mypaper last year.

Went for the movie cuz of Jennifer Garner - loved her since her Alias days. She's got great dress sense too!

X-Men Origins - Wolverine

Wolverine, my fave character in X-men series. Hot body, I like :)

Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen

2 pairs of tickets from Leecher! *surprise surprise* Supposed to meet up with Kaiwei and Yanni, but Kaiwei was overseas, so passed the ticket to Yanni's fren. Met Yanni for the 1st time and I felt like a hobbit over her tall frame! Bet Leecher shared the same sentiments as well!

Movie wise, Transformers 1 was way better! No doubt Megan Fox is now hotter than ever, but that failed to salvage the movie. Sometimes, it's just better to stop at 1.

Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince
G-Force

Didn't take pictures for these 2 movies. Half blood prince was the least of my fave book in Harry Potter's series, which explained my not-so-keen-feeling on the movie. However, I just had to watch it, to complete the series. The final 2 installments will be out this yr and next, can't wait!

Attended the movie night of Leecher's company to watch G-Force. We totally enjoyed the movie! Had a great time laughing out loud at the movie :)

District 9

Enough said about this movie (read here if interested). Still can't erase the prawn image till this very day. Hate breaking my ban and spending money on bad movie.

The Twilight Saga - New Moon

Leecher refused to get me tickets for the movie, even though it was my bdae! Fortunately, Edward to the rescue! Surprised me with movie vouchers, just in time for my bdae :)

Leecher doing what he is good at - LEECHING on my tickets to win a car for himself >.<

********

10 movies in year 2009 - Leecher has nothing to complain this time round!

Freebies Hunters

Yup, the Freebies Hunters were out on the prowl one weekend. They managed to pounce upon dear friend Miao, for some FREE tickets to e-乐 award ceremony! Thanks a million Miao! (and to Amos too, the source of the free tickets!)

Looks like even the rain couldn't put out the enthusiasm of the crowd. Armed with the trusty red umbrella, one of the Freebies Hunters decided to take on the crowd head on... ...

Nah... Freebies Hunters no 1 couldn't smoke thru the crowd, got to queue up like everyone else. Haiz...

But his partner, Freebies Hunters no 2, seems pretty ok queueing up and spend her time filling up the contest form at the back of the FREE tickets.

Wa SGD148 to be up close and personal with the stars... ... Anyone?

Freebies Hunter no 1 was pretty happy just sitting way up here. Better view too. Yay! Second free concert for the year!

Being tagged.

Lotsa fans clubs too. Freebies Hunters no 1 think this one is for Show Luo

These are supporting Derrick.

And so the concert starts... ...

One of Hunter no 1's fav local singers. Really got "Liao" one. Too bad she chose to start out in Singapore. This was a bad move. Most Singaporeans like 外国货, just look at Stephanie Sun and JJ Lim... ...

Oh, and there's the ticket sponsor, Amos(circled in red) with his band 臭皮匠! "Go Amos go! 我们永远 support 你！" shouted the Freebies Hunters!

The lead singer of 臭皮匠, quite cute hor... ...

The singer that sang the famous 一人一半song for the movie 881. Can't remember the name though.

One of the reasons to come to this concert, too bad he only sang one song.

Not forgetting JJ Lim, think Freebies Hunter no 1 paid more attention to the dance girls than him though. Wa ha ha. He was like the ambassador of Singapore music industry, keep asking the crowd to support 本地音乐, okie okie the audience will do it!

Of cos, Singapore's pride! Stephanie Sun.

Her powerful head voice!

Finally the show stopper, regardless the different fan clubs, when it was time for this guy to perform, the whole place just turned into a sea of screaming hysterical mess. Freebie Hunter no 2 included.

Couldn't resist taking a pic with the Singapore Flyer in the background.

By the way, think this is the first time Freebies Hunters ever stepped on the floating platform. Must take some more pics!

Many thanks to Miao once again!
