i remb on the night of 30/4 last year,
i was at PLTC camp in sch,
sitting on the canteen bench with my fellow P3 Popeye patrol mates

this year's night of 30/04,
i was at sch too,
but this time attending the 1st ever DHS movie marathon!

it was well, cool.
i mean it's quite an experience watching a movie
with ppl from ur sch late at night in a lecture theatre,
let alone 5 moives, straight in a row.
u see ppl equipped with all sorts of stuff for night,
pillows, tib-bits, pepsi.. u name it.

for de first slot,
we got a choice of watcing Night at the Museum or Initial D
as i watched Night b4
jiaying and i watched Initial D
it was not bad lor, with all the drifting cars and all.
better than expected actually.
[but maybe that's cos i didn't expect much?]
liked the characters though. (:

we rushed to toliet b4 we got our supper.
then we went to book seats b4 eating (kiasu mah)
only mangaed to stuff half the packet of bee hoon in m mouth.

2nd slot was jiaying's choice,
since i made the frist choice le.
she chose Pirates of the Caribbean II,
which i watched b4
though i wanna watch national tresure,
but Pirates was OK with me. (:

there were no more intermissions aft that.
we just had to rush to toliet and back in between moives.

3rd slot: Ringu [jap version of The Ring] VS Happy Feet
what a strange combi.
i mean i dont wanna watch both!
but we ended up watching Ringu.
think it lacks plot lor, like most horror movies do
but the scary element is there la,
considering random scary pics would pop out every once in a while
then everyone would scream.

4th slot,
we were determined to watch The Prestige,
even though the number of people there was overwhelming
(no one wanted to watch The Maid la, esp not right after Ringu)
as Mr Leong recommended it.
it's was a bit confusing at the beginning la,
cos it wasnt tat type which u can easily predict wat's going to happen next.
it's the uncertainty tat makes it interesting,
however the ending wasn't unexpected,
even though it didn't obey the laws of physics.
in conclsion, i had a nice time trying to figure out what happened. (:
it's hard to understand how rivalry can bring people to tat state though.

last slot:
high sch musical, Ju-on, Remember the Titans
we watched Titans.
really inspirational, esp it was based aft a true story
liked the characters, and the plot.
it was nice (:

yupp. and so the marathon ended.
suprisingly i didnt fall asleep leh,
despite the fact that i slept at 2 plus the previous night.

I survived movie marathon!
5 movies straight without sleeping a wink.
what a cool way to spend a birthday, dont you think?
