My Review

Story goes... "In 1952 Romania, two Roman Catholic nuns living at the Cârța Monastery are attacked by an unseen force when they enter a tunnel to retrieve an ancient Christian relic. The surviving nun, Sister Victoria, flees from the attacker, a demon appearing as a nun, and hangs herself. Her body is discovered by Frenchie, a villager who transports supplies to the nuns..." Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nun_(2018_film) Conclusion An overall satisfying movie... - just nice special/scary effect for the movie - despite the main casts was only around 4 (3 humans and the nun), the screen didn't felt lacking. - the main storyline was well paced with the ending giving a smooth wrap up to link up with it's Conjuring series. Looking forward to sequel but seemed like the next up would be The Conjuring 3 .

Storyline "The alien Predators come to the southern backwoods of the US state of Georgia, and a group of former soldiers and a biologist have to face the Predators to save the human race." -Source: https://www.foxmovies.com/movies/the-predator Watch out for? The young boy, Jacob Tremblay as Rory McKenna . Great acting he got there. Conclusion The movie itself... It felt like the movie was shot by different people. The movie pace was like sudden accelerate and changed pace which makes the tension falls apart, then proceed with a fast pace and dead end. The movie left me very  CONFUSED . The focus shifted all over the movie. I still prefer the portion where it felt like the predator movie style of "fight-run-survive and loop again". But the movie kept trying to bring a main story frame and pull it together but not a smooth transition. Spoilers Ahead: Feels like I watched a sci-fi drama but on the big screen and it was like.. "what? I just fini...

Storyline  [1] In the film, a deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific… with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Jason Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below… bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.

The last day of our trip. Did nothing much except lazing in the hotel and then check out of the hotel for airport. Our flight was 3.50pm (Thailand time) and we started out journey @ 12.30pm as we were worried about traffic jam on the road but there wasn't. Traffic was quite smooth as what the hotel receptionist had mentioned. If you are heading for  Don Muang International Airport , please be prepared for the crowd! We were shocked by the long queue to the immigration counter. Took about 40 minutes to clear the immigration counter. Our friend went to another the BKK international airport and it was a breeze for him. There are shops at the airport for last minute shopping but the pricing is much higher as compared to the shopping mall. Smooth flight back to Singapore via Scoot (Tiger Air). --------------------------------------------------- Hotel Review Stayed @  Citin Pratunam Hotel Bangkok by Compass Hospitality The room  1....

Pros - Vivid colors to choose from. Helps to stick phone with portable charger, tablet/phone with music scores stand etc Works well with glossy, smooth surface Small and slim in size, almost weight nothing so not a load to carry in bag Cons - Only works well with glossy and smooth surface Slide off easily if not enough suction Price: -  Overall: I would recommend buying.  - Affordable and color is very nice

Pros - Color are vivid. Helps to cover up any messy piled-up stuffs The box are foldable, making it easy to keep if you need to keep it for future use. Easy to set up and dissemble for keeping The handles to carry the box around are quite durable and it makes moving the box easier even if it is heavy loaded. Cons - In order to stack the box up, the storage box have to be fully filled with items in order for the box to sit properly. The part where it is cream color, after using it for a period of time, it will have brown mold so take note about that. The assembly parts is sometime flimsy when it is not in the correct position. It ain't a big issue as it is easily fitted back. Price:  Bought @ SGD $11.90 pc box years ago but now pricing seemed to have gone down. Also, there are better ones which can minimize the molding from appearing. Can consider if in need of flexible storage as takes little storage space when not in use as compared to plastic/c...

Day 3 After Day 2 trip with our driver, we took another one day BKK trip with him. We started the day at 7am. Our driver told us we got to start this early in order to be in time for the Train Market and Floating Market. Had a very light breakfast at hotel with self prepared meal (instant porridge, mango sticky rice and cream puff) for breakfast! On the way to our driver's car. Our first destination is the  Maeklong Railway Market.   A lot of people. Everyone came to see, buy, eat, take photo (especially when the train came) Small walking path, with vendors on both sides Some of the passengers from the train ride alighted to the Railway Market This shop has delicious roasted meat. Our driver highly recommend us. My Roast Pork with Char Siew and Chicken for lunch. Thumbsup! Our next destination was the Floating market damnoen saduak but we gave it a miss after much consideration and went straight to the next location. We en...

Synopsis and Cast "“Switch Girl!!” is a manga series by Aida Natsumi that currently runs in Shueisha’s magazine Margaret and has sold close to 5 million copies total. The story revolves around a high school student named Nika (Nishiuchi Mariya) who appears to be a stylish and fashionable girl at school, but that’s really a fake persona that she uses when she’s in public. At home, she “switches off” the facade and her returns to her true slovenly nature. Kiriyama Renn (26) plays the good-looking transfer student Arata, who is Nika’s love interest in the story. The drama series will begin airing on satellite channel Fuji TV TWO on December 24, which is Nishiuchi’s 18th birthday. -"  Tokyography My review: Picked up this drama randomly ever since I stopped Japanese drama. And I like it! Enjoyable..watch at your own pace or watch it in one go, it's addictive. However, if you are not into comedy, pure leisure kind of drama, this might not be your cup of tea.  As said in the...

Needed cream cheese frosting for a birthday cake. Read that frosting should be make earlier so I searched for a cream cheese recipe ( link ) I doubled my recipe as I was afraid it is not enough for my cake. So here is goes: Ingredients 2 packs of 250g (approx 18 oz) cream cheese (Philadelphia cream cheese) 1 cup (approx 125g or 4.4 oz) of icing sugar 8 tablespoons of butter (melted butter for easier mixing) 1 teaspoon vanilla essence Steps as below: 1. Combine all into a big mixing bowl  2. Mix well until creamy 3. Use and required or refrigerate till you need to use Step 1 Step 2

Yes, it’s not difficult to make yourself a nice sandwich! Make-do with whatever that is available in your kitchen and create your own “sandwich”. Luckily for me, I have the below in my fridge Ingredients 1. Bread/lettuce/rice wrap – for the top and bottom layer 2. Cheese 3. Ham in slices 4. Tomato 5. Butter Making - Here you go: a. If you have bread, then spread a layer or butter onto one side it bread b. Stack one piece of the bread (the side with butter facing on top) on the plate. c. Stack up ingredients (2 to 4) in the sequence you like. d. Ends with placing the remaining bread on at the top (the side with butter facing down) Note: At times, I will replace: i. ham with bacon (if you have time to fry it to crisps or if you have bacon bits) ii. cheese with egg (fried/sliced hard boiled egg) iii. butter with margarine or strawberry/blueberry jam bak kwa sandwich

Having seen the trailer, it looked like it's another great movie ahead. But when I was done with watching, it just felt..... Spoilers Ahead... Some thoughts on the movie: Scare factor: 2.5 of out 5 At many scenes where we would typically get a scare of our lives with a suddenly shriek or a ghost projection, it was only to a minimal and when it felt like more than half of the movie was already gone then it really happened. Being a ghost movie fan, I am so sure there would be something happening at that point of time, or even more... but it didn't. When the ghost possessed the human body, the only difference is a nonsensical mumble/speech with a enlarged black pupils which reminded me and my friend of her colored contact lenses with the enlarge the pupils' visual effect. It seemed better effect to leave the ghost outlook alone.. maybe like Sadako, covered her face with hair and leave it up to the audience's imagination for the fear factor. Movie Overall : 3 ...

CNY again, time for some baking... with my new electrical appliance in my kitchen... AIR FRYER! My microwave oven has been quite cranky (the plate doesn't rotate 90% of the time) so I tried using air fryer and it worked just fine! Air Fryer Setting - temperature @ 160C - timer set to 12 minutes This time round, I changed the recipe to Batch 1 : Ingredients a. 70g almond b. 20g pumpkin seeds c. 10g sunflower seeds d. 50g-70g florentine powder Batch 2: Ingredients a. 70g butter almond b. 20g pumpkin seeds c. 10g sunflower seeds d. 100g florentine powder Instruction: 1. In a large bowl, simply mixed almond, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds (ingredient a-c) and stir in florentine powder a tablespoon at a time for easier mixing. 2. Spread onto the air fryer baking tray. (Note: to line the baking tray with baking paper) 3. Set air fryer temperature to 160C and timer set to 12 minutes 4. Keep tabs on the almond florentine, once turn brown, it's time to re...

Day 2 Started the day around 9am+ looking for breakfast around nearby area.  A lot to choose from and we couldn't decide! Not sure what this is but it was nice! Crispy on the outside, chewy inside. Topped with sweet chilli sauce, reminds me of png kueh without fillings. Wanton Mee from a stall along the roadside.  So nice that we ordered another bowl to fill our stomach. After breakfast, time to head for Ayutthaya . We had initially planned on taking the train to Ayutthaya.  Based on various travelling sites, we planned to take the train from Bangkok Train Station to Ayutthaya  (the second class seats is priced @ THB $245 ~325+  per person with fixed seats allocation or a third class seats with free standing at THB $15 ). The journey varies from 1 hr 30 mins to 2 hr 30mins and we factored in: 1. Rent a bicycle to tour around or hire a tuk tuk for short trips within Ayuthaya. 2. Recommended to head for the station for the trai...
