15

When I was in LA, I believe it was deut that showed me this short film of teenage gangsters in Singapore.. it was around 20 mins long...

Today, Boon asked me about independant films and if I liked it, and he showed me the short film "Cut" by Roystan Tan... basically mocking the Singapore Censorship Board for "Cutting" 27 scenes from his MOVIE 15.

Yes... The Movie, I never knew it was made into a movie. I liked the short film, because it really showed how gangsters were in Singapore, so I decided to watch The Movie..

After sitting through 1:30 mins of this.. I found the movie... boring.. BUT very true.. although I think he did leave out the karaoke portion.. >.< ... Ah-Bengs (the local term for them) who acted in the movie are real life Ah Bengs... According to some reviews I've read.. some of them have gone to jail after the movie hence no Part 2..

Some snippets in this movie did bring back memories of my past.. like the self mutilation and body piercing... Yea.. I remember me and some of my girl friends using a cutter and making little slashes in our skin juz cuz.. and my piercing phase... where I had to pierce like 7 ear holes on one ear... (I don't think this phase is over since I still wana go pierce my navel)

I remember having a "brother" that had this huge "Guan Gong" tattooed on his back, (thats the God that most triads pray to as it symbolizes honor, loyalty, integrity, justice, courage, and strength) and his tattoo was itching... so he needed someone to help him put lotion and scratch his back lmao =)



Yea and his place was this apt where u'd walk in and there were like ten over 1/2 naked guys walking around high on something or juz smoking cigz (back that the trend was to sniff glue) with enough tattoos to compete with GNR... They had a big screen TV with an LD player that was constantly playing this MTV / Karaoke haha it was my fav song back than too.. only available on a Marlboro Red Hot Hits Summer Party CD lol



HAHAHAHAHAHAA


Anyways heres 15: The Movie if you wana watch it =D
Rated R: (Male Genitals, Nauseating Scene of swalling a Drug Filled Condom, offensive language in English, Hokkien, Mandarin, Malay, Tamil.. blah blah)
Movie is primarily in Mandarin and Hokkien (no subtitles)

Colorful Chinese New Year

Hey Everyone..

So its the Chinese New Year, and I've been hella busy.. Friday and Saturday has been non-stop cleaning of the house from the ceiling to the floor... yea chinese people do that to get rid of all the Bad Luck and evil spirits that lurk in the house lol

But I still managed to squeeze in the yearly trip to Chinatown still =D

Here are the pics


Here's a pic of Singapore's most famous BBQ Pork... BEE CHENG HIANG


I just thot these lanterns were really pretty ontoppa this shop... very oriental... the shop was selling Singapore Souvenirs that were probably made in china, 3 for TEN DOLLAAAAAA :P


These are miniature puppets of the real thing... its the lion that they use for Lion Dance


One of my favorite fruits in the world... Pomelos... peepz eat this during the new year, because of it heavy looking weight... its a symbol of ambudance


These tiny little shoes are the cutest thing!!!! I think if I was back in the Tang Dynasty or something where women bound their feet I could have probably fit my fat foot in the largest one they have there SOooo Cutee!!!


Street Scene... All the Icky Sweaty People having bodily contact with each other .... Ewwwww (yea I took a shower with antiseptic when I got home)


THIS is the reason WHY I get fat during the Chinese New Year... All the damn goodies.. imagine..I probably visit like 20 homes during Chinese New Year and all you do is go around snacking on these damn goodies!! its like a freaking FAT drug!


I thought this was pretty cool... I especially liked the one where it says TEO FAMILY.. hehee thats my family haha wat a coincidence and if I remember correctly these plates aren't too expensive :)
