Golden Village Movie Tickets

Time for me to serve the public...$7 GV movie tickets, anyone?? Please read below for the details.

' Dear All,

There is no better time to buy Golden Village's movie vouchers than now! With effect from 1st May 05, there will be an increase in admission prices across the three Cinema Exhibitors, Golden Village, Shaw and Eng Wah. As the price hike sets in, the movie vouchers will offer a maximum discount of up to $2.50 or 26% off on weekend admission prices.

These movie vouchers are valid for all days and all sessions, which means you will enjoy greater savings off weekend admission prices after the revised pricing sets in. With a long validity period of one year from the date of issue, you will be protected from the price increase for one year as long as you keep ample "stock" of movie vouchers.

The current and revised cinema admission price for all days in a week from 1st May 2005 are:
* Monday to Thursday (before 5pm) : $6.50 (Revised price: $7)
* Thursday (after 5pm), Friday & Eve of Public Holidays (before 5pm) : $7.50 (Revised Price: $8)
* Friday (after 5pm), Saturday, Sunday, Eve of Public Holidays (after 5pm), Public Holidays and Midnight sessions: $8.50 (Revised Price: $9.50)

We are selling tickets in 10's @ $7 each. If interested, pls reply!!

If you need more than 50 tickets, free feel to email us!

Once you've clicked to select the number of tickets, it will be considered sold. Payment of tickets will be advised on a later date. The deadline for ordering is 25th April (Monday), so hurry to place an order with us to enjoy great savings! '

As can be read above, the deadline is Monday! So please order fast!! =)

Also, as can be seen, i have changed the template of the blog, and in the process, deleted all your links from my blog..so how am i supposed to add them back in again?

Think this new template is more soothing...=) in any case, all this is irrelevant. GV tickets is the issue here! =p

At Odds

Feeling more and more at odds with myself as time passes...

Who is my real enemy really? More than anybody else, i feel that it is myself who is preventing myself from achieving the best that i can. i set limits for myself, when i may actually surpass that limit.

i go thru life being afraid to try out new things/events/activities, in the process preventing myself from having new experiences.

if i m to say that i m not clever enough, neither am i all that dumb.

if i am to say that i am not physically able, neither am i handicapped.

if i am to say that i am not happy, neither am i sad/depressed.

if i am to say that i am pessimistic, what is being optimistic really?

So where does that leave me? why do i feel that life has no clear direction? i am just going with the flow, unaware of where that will take me to.

Indeed, like what i read in the Sunday Times, 'fear prevents us from living, but not from dying'. but to illustrate exactly what i fear is hard to grasp totally. What i do know is somehow the fear has festered in my heart and manifested itself as a phobia, which equates to irrational thinking.

perhaps instead of asking wat life could have been, i should be asking myself what i can do with my life now. perhaps comparison should not be made, but i do feel that my frens are leading much more colourful lives than me. it is thru my own actions that i limit wat i can achieve.

easy to pinpoint the characteristic that i must change, but hard to achieve. so am i exactly unhappy with my life? I can't say that that is absolutely true either. Truly at odds with myself.

Wow me?

In today's Today:

'The secret to a man's domestic peace and happiness is to keep quiet when you are right, and apologise when she is wrong. Win an argument and you could end up sleeping on the sofa.'

How interesting...successful is the man who can achieve the above. The art of courtship.

The following saying applies equally to ladies..'A few (men) is enough for me. So is one; so is none." I bet the govt would not approve of it though, since they are advocating marriage and childbirth.

From the same article, 'A woman's mind is the last frontier of discovery for mankind.' Really.

'Bona Fide' Adult

Read this in yesterday's issue of Mind Your Body - Kit Chan's interview :-

'What's your greatest fear in life?'

Ans: To become a 'bona fide' adult, pragmatic and practical.

That sure sounds like the way i am now...come to think of it, it applies to all my frens who started work as well.

Tt's sad...isn't there a way to achieve the best of both worlds? ie. retain part of the child in us, while relishing the freedom and empowerment that adulthood brings.

Paradox of Life

I have realised:

Some people can be nasty to you one day (or night), and be very nice the very next day.

I can advocate kindness to everyone, but i can't even forgive.

I feel for and help the unfortunate in society, but i think of exacting revenge on those who stepped on my toes.

At times, i do not know wat defines a person. What's the point of helping others when i can't even forgive and am in fact, scheming and cunning to the extent of plotting against my enemy? To add fuel to the fire, i am act thinking of 'using another person's knife to kill the one i hate' - a ref to the chinese idiom.

Realised more than ever that things can never be judged on their appearance. Also, it's just a fine line btw gd n evil. nobody can be absolutely gd and conversely evil. It's up to the indiv to allow which side of her/him to dominate.

At the end of the day, i suppose this is part of being human and growing up, not tt i like it one bit. Things seemed so much more innocent when young and in sch. Things are NEVER simple at the workplace, but perhaps i m thinking and reading too much.

Again, isn't that a paradox? We want life to be simple yet complicated at the same time. So what do we really want?
