JUDGEMENT DAY (世界末日) (2013)
Before I start, check out the official trailer here :
Judgement Day started screening on the 18th of April 2013. It's rated PG13 and the movie is about 1 hours and 44 minutes long. Perfect and not too draggy in my opinion.
The cast consists of Henry Thia, Chua En Lai, Rebecca Lim, Guo Liang, Edwin Goh, Julie Tan, Sebastian Tan, Wang Yuqing, John Cheng, (Ah Nan) Mark Lee, Tender Huang and Alice Ko.
Below is the synopsis that I took from : Movie Xclusive's Website
Synopsis: JUDGEMENT DAY centers around several characters, from all works of life, as they decide to share their deepest secrets when it is believed that doomsday will happen in 72 hours. A corrupted cop confesses to his subordinate that he had accepted a bribe before. A married man tells his family his greatest wish is to become a woman. A wife reveals to her husband that she is actually secretly in love with her superior at work. A distraught young lady decides to run away from Singapore and heads for Cambodia, in the process; she breaks up with her finance. But miraculously, everyone survives judgement day. While the whole world rejoices; for those who made irreversible decisions, it is the end of their previous world…
Watching the movie made me tear a little because I was reminded of the late Ah Nan who never fails to bring joy to us in every production that he is in. He is a natural when it comes to comedy!
This film is directed and written by Ong Kuo Sin while produced by Mark Lee. The script was straightforward and it touches the depths of our hearts instantly. Every year, there will be rumors of the world ending and people never took them seriously.
I had to control myself from taking out my phone to tweet every meaningful quote found in the movie. It really teaches you to cherish your loved ones while you can and ALSO, it tells you to go for your dreams. Don't wait until you know that you are dying soon than try to fulfill it! We are not here to die, we are here to LIVE!
"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door." I LIVE BY THIS QUOTE and I think you should too.
I liked the part in the film whereby Rebecca mentioned that we are all doing what everyone else is doing, it is really so mundane. Why fit in when we were born to stand out?
Dreams are really very important. Without a goal and without a dream, I would not have come this far in life. Believing in myself that I could be an author and write my life story out for the world to see was not easy BUT I did it, nevertheless. If not for my ambition, my goal, my dream in life, I may have succeeded in the past whenever I tried to commit suicide. I am grateful that I did not succumb to ending my life after the sexual abuse by my stepfather.... really really grateful I am still here to encourage people and change other's lives.
Anyhoo, do catch Judgement Day soon! Maybe today, after work? Come on, it is a Friday and I am sure that you will want to chill out after a hectic week and catch a movie right?
Till the next time, Xoxo.

END OF YEAR!
Thursday, December 27, 2012
Christmas is over and we are awaiting to welcome a brand new year ahead.
TIME REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY FLIES!
Before the Christmas week, I had a family outing with Mum and R. It was an advanced birthday celebration for him. We went to watch "Wreck-It Ralph" and I must say that it was such a heartwarming movie!
Check out the trailer here : Trailer!
Here's the write up about it taken from incinemas.sg
"From Walt Disney Animation Studios and Emmy®-winning director Rich Moore comes “Wreck-It Ralph,” a hilarious, arcade-game-hopping adventure. For decades, Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) has been overshadowed by Fix-It Felix, Jr. (voice of Jack McBrayer), the good-guy star of their game who always gets to save the day. Tired of playing the role of a bad guy, Ralph takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a journey across the arcade through multiple generations of video games to prove he’s got what it takes to be a hero.
On his quest, Ralph meets tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch) from the first-person action game Hero’s Duty, and feisty misfit Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) from the candy-coated cart racing game, Sugar Rush, who may just be his first real friend. But everything changes when a deadly enemy is unleashed, threatening the entire arcade and Vanellope herself. Ralph finally gets his chance to save the day—but can he do it in time? “Wreck-It Ralph” crashes onto the big screen on December 20, 2012, in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters."
I wouldn't want to spoilt the story for you but I'd give it a 3 and half popcorns outta 5 for this movie. It made me tear and it showed me a special meaning. The bad guy in the movie "Ralph" tries so hard to be a good person, to be a hero and to get recognition just like everyone of us, always trying to make something out of ourselves in our daily lives.
What are we all aiming for?
It's a cartoon movie about love, friendship and loyalty and I really loved it. I am not a fan of cartoon movies but this movie stole my heart totally! Go catch it!
I went to JB over the weekends with friends and had some really really good food! Not the usual lok-lok and "abalone noodle"! I also went for some damn good Thai full body massage over there. Most importantly, damn cheap also! I'll recommend it in my next post alright?
Chistmas Eve was spent counting down at Wild Oats @ Punggol Park with the ASF clique, my mum and my dear girls. I had fun there! Everything is good when I have good company!
Christmas Day was spent with another clique at Tanjong Beach, Sentosa. We were all having a great time until James got pricked/ he stepped on a sea urchin?!!! Or any other prickly object but it was most probably a sea urchin!!! I saw him limp his way in from the sea and I knew that he was in pain, we have such great telepathy!
Here are some unreleased photos. (Unreleased meaning I haven't published them on Facebook YET..)
This was taken on Christmas Eve while @ Wild Oats!
This was my one and only Christmas present this year! It was from Gabriel from the ASF clique and was so happy to receive a gift! There wasn't much feel for celebration this year.
And these were photos from Christmas Day!
My outfit of the day!
A really candid shot and I super love it cos the background made it look so chio. Made me chio as well. Hahahahaha. Chio is a hokkien slang for pretty by the way, if you don't already know!
Look at the 3 pin plug holes on my boyfriend's foot. So lucky of him to offend the sea urchin. I hope he didn't squash the poor sea creature. We spent almost 5 hours in Alexandra Hospital just to get this treated to... HAHA, super epic I know.
Another lovely shot with the girls.
Anyway, I know this is a kinda jumbled up end of year post that serves no meaning and doesn't actually sum up my 2012 but yeah, you could backtrack if you like and if you are new to my blog, welcome to my life!
I went to read back on the very first few posts I did in 2012 and I must say that I have matured a lot in this one year too. It's just been a year but I have achieved so so so so much! Who knew in January 2012 that I could be a published author at the end of the year? =) Getting emotional with gratitude again.
Today, I caught this awesome movie with the girls and James. What can I say?
It is the most awesome movie to end your 2012 with! I swear! I would remember at the end of next year that my 2012 ended with such a blast because I caught CZ12!
Book your tickets online now! Don't wait!
Till the next time, I guess I'd probably be blogging again on the last day of the year.
Xoxo! Thanks for reading!

Today, I caught this awesome movie with the girls and James. What can I say?
Jackie Chan really never fails to amaze us! This is him at his best I must say! I have watched all his movies and they always get my adrenaline rushing in every scene. I love how his movies are always action packed and this time, it is packed with loads of humor as well! How can an action-packed movie added with so much laughter even disappoint anyone right?
I rate this movie a 5 outta 5! You should go catch it if you haven't! I've tried to catch this movie since last week but slots were always sold out! Seriously! I could be at the theater at like 4pm and the slot for the 10.20pm show was selling fast while the one at 7.30pm was SOLD OUT! This is really an awesome blockbuster and I wouldn't say no to watching it again! So blessed to have caught it today because Hui Qi booked the tickets early. I heard that this will be the last movie he is directing/ acting in. He will continue acting but just not in such action-packed movies anymore as he is aging and his bones won't be always able to withstand all the injuries from all his stunts. I am such a fan of him and I totally respect him!
