A Fortune Telling

Posted by Ruok On July - 31 - 2008

The last time I got approached by a fortune teller was way way back when I was running my lan shop business.

Then, my business was not doing too well. I was having lunch at the kopitiam when this uncle suddenly sat in front of me.

He introduce himself as a fortune teller hailing from Taiwan and started to pitch his worth by stating some really accurate description of my life thus far. He then asked me if I wanted to know what will happen next, dropping a not so subtle hint that I should pay for such knowledge.

I told him that I don’t want or need to know. He persisted; in which I just told him, I believe in God and I believe Heaven’s secret shall not be divulged.

He then plonk himself back into his seat, looking a bit dejected but mostly lost.

I felt a bit sorry for him and started making small talk. He left soon after, still looking mostly lost.

The Return Of Ang Chee Beng

Posted by Ruok On July - 30 - 2008

Truth Be Told will be shown this Sunday, 3 August, Arts Central, 10pm.

Guess I will be on tv again! :D

For those who have not caught the movie and have not bought/rent the DVD, this will be a most excellent chance to catch a much underrated local movie. All I ask of you, if you do want to tune in, is to not miss the first five minutes. ;)

Note to self : Avoid the coffeeshop at 10pm on Sunday night…

Hidden Treasure – The Telecast

Posted by Ruok On July - 28 - 2008

So this was telecast about two Sundays back.

I’m not too pleased with two of the scenes, and on the whole I think I did okay.

Just okay.

Not my best work by far.

And a high likelihood of being one of my last. So to all my overseas friends, enjoy it while it lasts. :P

Happy Birthday Zeus

Happy birthday Zeus St Jude HAMMURABI GILGAMESH!

May Hera never find out about your dalliances outside Mount Olympus!

May Aphrodite continue to bless you with the mojo you need to keep up with the secretary under your desk!

May your bottle of palm oil never runs dry!

May your crappy taste in movies be appreciated by all one day!

May you safely crawl out of the closet you are desperately still hiding in!

And last of all, may you never be offered soya bean milk again while you are doing your “Incredible Hulk” impersonation.

Happy Birthday Shey!
