Smallville S08 E05 - Commitment


This has to be one of the best Smallville episodes so far.
An episode which really kept me at the edge of my seat during the part where Lois was 'forced' into confessing her true feelings for Clark~ ^_^

The first thing you notice from the clip which I cut is that the entire scenario resembles almost toO much to.. yeap you guessed it.. SAW.
The first time I saw it I was abit "meh..", not another SAW-wannabe, as can be seen in many shows/films nowadays..

But what that scene brought forth and showed mE, completely toOk my mind off this cliche..




Okie, the story goes..
(I will admit, the plot is kinda lame actually.. but what transpired from it is so much more!)


Chloe (Lois' cousin and Clark's best friend) just got engaged to Jimmy.
Soon after, they got kidnapped by this jeweler who obviously had a bad relationship with his ex-wife (ex because he killed her.. no surprise)
His mentally obsessive reason for doing so is that he wants to make sure future couples do no make the same mistake as he did.. having a relationship that was filled with lies etc..


So he kidnaps Chloe & Jimmy and 'puts them to the test'.. which they eventually succeed in.. and were led off the hook.

Meanwhile, Lois and Clark decided to track this guy down to save Chloe & Jimmy.. so what did they do?

- They pretended to be a couple, in hopes of being kidnapped by Mr. Psycho.. which he did -




Just as Clark thought he could easily bash his way through with his super-might (duh)..
The directors decided..

"hmm.. lets make this more interesting and give Mr. Psycho a Krypto-watch.. so that Clarky boy can't do anything.. =D"

.. which I'm glad they did.. coz it only made the story soO much more meaningful~ ^_^


And so, Lois & Clark find themselves staring truth in the face (via a lie-detector lol).. and undergoing the "commitment test"..

.. which as I've mentioned..
forces Lois to confess her true feelings to our dear Clarky~
(which totally surprised him no doubt)


The climatic part to watch out for is at 2:54 onwards till the confession.. ^_^
The suspence and anxiety of just waiting to hear her say "yes", coupled with the intense 'building-up' music, just makes me go, "AWWWW.... ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ "




A moment which marks the beginning of their romance.. that ultimately leads to their undeniable love for one another (that happens wayyyyy later in their lives)~

Semester is coming to an end yet again.
Its amazing how quickly time passes when you're studying... overseas.. at least for mE.

Exams nearing.. assignments/reports due.. bla-bler-blee-blaaaa.
Best thing of coz is...

THE MOTHER LAND IS NEARING!!

I'm gonna kiss the soil that it sits on..


But there are still 5 more weeks to go..


In the meantime, there are stuff to do here.. such as going for a 'Western Power Field Trip' where we checked out the Bentley sub-station - awesome.

And went for Pasar Malam as well - which was kinda awesome toO... except for those goddamned SATAYS!!!!

*RAHHHHHH.



15/10/2008 (Wednesday morning)

Woke up especially early for the field trip at 9am.

Of all the days, goD had to bless us with SCORCHING HEAT. =\
And unfortunately for us, the sub-station was open-aired.. which is gD coz we can see everything clearly.. but also badddd.. coz we got baked like lil' tiny ants under a magnifying glass... a HUGE one.


But all was gD nonetheless.
We finally got a chance to have a first hand look at how a proper electrical sub-station is built and more importantly, all the transformers, distribution lines etc.. (stuff which will put most of you to sleep if I elaborate.. =D)

It was coooOOOL~

I suppose pictures will be more interesting than listening to mE dabble about..

17/10/2008 (Friday evening)

After a long week at uni, we decided to chill out at the 'Pasar Malam' event which the uni organised.
For those who are not in the know, 'Pasar Malam' means 'Night Market' - where people set up FOOD stalls (obviously at night) and you basically go around buying HEAPS and spoiling yourself silly with satays, ramley burgers and barbequed seafood to name a few. =D


There were like 30 - 40 stalls that night! =O
But unfortunately, I find that the standards have dropped as compared to previous years. *blah.. =\



. YS , Loong .
YS: "Hey loong.. did you know.. "
Loong: "Hmm.. i think i saw a pretty chick over there.."
xD




Anywho, the group of us comprised of Yu Sheng (yes guys, there is a YS in australia too and he's my 'classmate buddy'.. kinda like how our YS is my 'army buddy'.. HAHA - how coincidental this is. xD), Loong and Sydney (loong's sis)~



. Sydney-aka-Siera Angel-aka.. .
. RAMSAY BURGER! .
.. I mean, Ramley.




I bumped into quite a few friends as well - Yilin, Vicky, Zhi Hao, winny, anGeL, Mario, bido, Aaron, Haitham and Brad.. Okie, so that's quite alot.. lol.

In fact, we all bumped into toO many familiar faces. =)


Alot of hot asian gaLs toO I must say...
and I mean.. a HELL LOT..

.. wait.. I didn't just say that. =X




. We waited 1 WHOLE #!$%ing hour for these SATAYS that were completely SHEEEEEEIT!! .
*BIG ROARRRRRR*
.. we weren't smiling soon after..
>=\




Oh and the live performances were SHEEEEEEEEET.
Pls, if you can't sing (like mE), kindly save our ears from exploding and go do it at a KTV.. coz that's what they're for. =X

Pity.. the gaL with the long sexy legs (amidst the coldness of the night.. yea.. she wore hot pants when it was 10 - 15 degrees) could not sing as well as she loOked. =\

Not only that, she gave everyone the impression that she's gonna be gD coz she and her band toOk a long time to prepare and she kept "mic testing" and even told the DJ to lower the bass and all that..

And in the end..

as Loong puts it..

"EPIC FAIL!!"



But all in all, it was gD fun hanging out with the fellas.






P.S: I was gonna blog about zyinG's 21st biFdaY.. but the PHOTOS HAVE NOT REACHED ME YET. HURRY!
