I ate at the Handle Bar today, the biker's bar across the school main gate. Our cell decided to dine there as a mark of our last dinner at the site. Tomorrow will be the last youth service in the sanctuary. Next week will be the last combined service at Malan Road. After that, we move to Potong Pasir.
Because the Youth congregation will be having our camp during the official first service at Potong Pasir, our first service there will actually be on Christmas Day. Quite appropriate I guess. And it adds a poetic touch to our move. And then three days later, the school will converge on that little town to mark its own official move. Well, I guess the end really is coming.
okay, so vicks asked me to say here why you should NOT watch Chicken Little. In the words of Tolkien (this is how he described Narnia actually, but I found it apt), the show is a hodgepodge of images, an incomplete rendering of an imagined world. I mean, it takes bits and pieces from various movies, MTV songs, and cracks jokes at itself. It's too infused with pop culture. You have a Disney movie actually filled with cheesy pop songs. The lyrics are seriously gross. There's one line from one song going, "You hurt me, I hurt you, we both hurt too easily." ........................
Unoriginal and bad script, lousy acting (yes, even cartoon characters can act badly), lame humour, Chicken Little is proof that Disney has fallen flat on its face. It has bastardised moments from Finding Nemo, War of the Worlds, and basically is a tired tale of a father and son trying to connect. Save your money and time. Watch something else. Period.
Vicks: Well, I think I've heard alot about your CIP camp... Good stuff nonetheless. I'm sure Dai Wei and Jeremy can tell me more when we meet, haha. And oh yeah, there are plenty of fine councillors out there. Not everyone is weird. I mean, normal students are weird too.
