DISNEYLAND IS AN EVIL PLACE

WHY IS THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH AN EVIL PLACE? because i say so. but i can support that.

1. everything there is bloody expensive

yes that's right, everything there is damn expensive. but it's expected since disneyland is a tourist attraction. souvenirs are still alright. i mean, these things are authentic disney merchandises after all. but food prices there are jacked up like five to six times. even a plain hot dog bun (with the hot dog) costs 6 usd without taxes. it's daylight robbery i tell you. seaworld serves much better tasting stuff for just a little more. imagine 2.5 hot dog buns costing the same as a plate of flame seared salmon steak with fries. mad i tell you.

2. i dont feel happy at all over there

everyone says disneyland is the happiest place on earth, but i dont think so. i dont feel any happier over there. in fact, i enjoyed california adventure park much more than disneyland. more rides, more thrills. the only thing i liked about disneyland was the fantasmic show. it's this awesome light water show that's damn nice. everyone should watch it, pushing and shoving through the crowd while tripping over small kids is definitely worth it (but dont worry, i didnt trip over any). fireworks are overrated, unless you're somewhere near the front, dont bother trying to get a good seat at the back cos you'll be most probably be blocked by trees or tall people. i took a video of the fireworks, but because there was this damn tall guy in front of me, i had to raise my hand up high. damn tiring i tell you. anyway back to topic. no i dont feel any happier there. even the hat i bought didnt cheer me up much. the only joy i got out of the hat was to irritate handstand and butterfingers, and maybe the occasional jealous glance i get from little kids. but yeah, still not that happy. california adventure park > disneyland.

3. disneyland brings out the feminine side in little boys.

someone told me she saw a little boy blowing kisses at passerbys, and hypothesised that he learnt that from the characters that did it when they are in the parade or leaving photoshoots. little boys should be learning how to be manly like laughing at other little boys blowing kisses at passerbys, and not blowing kisses at passerbys. they will grow up to be girly men. not a good thing, causing little boys to become girly men.

4. there is a high chance of catching some weird communicable disease there

by that, i mean h1n1. the people density there is damn high, especially at the events like the fireworks and fantasmic and aladin. btw aladin was funny, but i fell asleep at the beginning. ok so anyway, most of the time you'll be spending time pushing and shoving against people when going for such events. imagine someone has a cold in the crowd, and happily sneezes. then that's it. tio h1n1 already.

5. the journey there is DAMN LONG

3 hours journey there, and 3 hours back on public transport. that's a lot of time wasted. luckily i brought my laptop along so i managed to complete a bit of my work. no car cos that means extra money spent.

so basically, i didnt like disneyland much. maybe that's because i've been to the one in tokyo. or maybe im too old for this. california adventure park is so much more fun for me. all the rides are damn shiok.

there's california screamin, which is this coaster ride with no stops, 3 downslopes, 3 high speed upslopes, many bends, one loop. damn nice. then there's mulholland madness, which is another coaster ride with one millions bends and a couple of downslopes. fun also cos the carts go through the bends at high speeds. the tower of terror is not bad also. basically it's the free fall thing, just that it's in darkness and everyone is sitted on chairs with legs touching the floor. so it's *not that* scary. the mickey mouse ferris wheel was not bad also. it's this ferris wheel with gondolas that can swing back and forth. damn cool.

i think i enjoyed this much more than disneyland. ok time to sleep.

anyway. it is now handstand's responsibility, yes, handstand youuuu who has been missing from this blog for like AGES to blog about seaworld, disneyland, and california adventure park.

IT IS NOT.

tall nut refuses to send me any songs unless i agree that 0.999 = 1. but i REFUSE. it is NOT. i don't care what wikipedia says.

is 0.999... = 1?

butterfingers refuses to accept this fact

I WATCHED HARRY POTTER

we went to watch harry potter today at the Fox theatres cinema, where they usually have many premieres. we bought our tickets way in advance, and the thing is there's no allocated seating, so you have to go and queue beforehand so as to get good seats.

our show was at 7pm, and we reached about 5pm..and there was already a line.. those in the front were like wearing harry potter uniform and wearing harry potter scarves etc..when we went in at around 6.30..the place was like this auditorium..with upstairs and downstairs and even a curtain in front of the screen.

The sound effects and graphics turn out to be even more fine than in singapore! especially the graphics on the screen. really good and defined and clear. and the audience here is really appreciative. they whoop and cheer and all that when the show is about to start (and they stay really quiet throughout) and the clap at the end of the show!

anyway i'm quite satisfied with this harry potter movie.. much better than the previous crappy movies..and all the changes they made to the book in the movie are all rather acceptable..tho we all felt that some scenes were rather unnecessary.

ok time to sleep! pip pip! [as dumbledore would say]

that was a biased entry

by the way butterfinger's omelette tasted the best out of all, and that was unanimously agreed on by all the three of us.

AND it was not chao ta ok. it just underwent a bit of maillard reaction. and the camera not enough exposure.

AND THE BEST OMELETTE GOES TO...

...tallnut with the nice looking unchaotaed omelette by a vote of 7 to 5 to 0! what a win!

butterfingers made the nicely folded omelette, too bad it was over chaotaed. the one at the back belonged to handstand. handstand tried to get rid of the not very nice fragment of egg at the side of the plate, too bad we stopped it before the evidence was gone.

we are all having midterms this week, so there wont be any new entries. tallnut is now waiting for omelettes from handstand and butterfingers.
