Yesterday celebrated my friend's birthday, Aaron his name is. A group of our old friends met up at yishun and watched The Incredibles! Yesterday was my second time watching it and it was a blast!! The movie was great and everyone enjoyed every single minute of it.
The movie, not to mention is very long, considering that The Incredibles is an animated film. It clocks in a little short of 2 hours, making it one of the longest animated film to be created. A Technological breakthrough, in terms of cgi rendering, especially the hair and lighting effects. It was simply amazing. Cool character, great plot, and above all, funnny.
The day before, i watched Saw, a psychothriller movie. The movie has a very sadistic theme to it and its not for the faint of heart. Although there arent many gory scenes though, there is a lot of blood and its the theme that makes it sadistic.
The story goes like this:
A young man named Adam (LEIGH WHANNELL) wakes to find himself chained to a rusty pipe inside a decrepit subterranean chamber. Chained to the opposite side of the room is another bewildered captive, Dr. Lawrence Gordon (CARY ELWES). Between them is a dead man lying in a pool of blood, holding a .38 in his hand. Neither man knows why he has been abducted; but instructions left on a microcassette order Dr. Gordon to kill Adam within eight hours. If he fails to do so, then both men will die, and Dr. Gordon's wife, Alison (MONICA POTTER), and his daughter will be killed. Recalling a recent murder investigation by a police detective named Tapp (DANNY GLOVER), Dr. Gordon realizes he and Adam are the next victims of a psychopathic genius known only as "Jigsaw." With only a few hours left to spare, they must unravel the elaborate puzzle of their fate in the midst of mounting terror. The killer has provided them with only a few clues and two handsaws - too weak to break their steel shackles, but strong enough to cut through flesh and bone.
The movie revolves around this killer, finding victims can capturing them to be part of his sadistic plan. What happened is that, once he found his victims, he will set up an elaborate puzzle for the victim to solve and escape... or face death. Throughout the movie, it not only concentrates on the 2 victims shackled in an abandone bathroom somewhere, but also shows the policemen's investigation on a series of deaths cause by the same man.
In the movie, there was one victim, a woman, strapped onto a seat with a reverse bear trap fixed on her jaw. The woman suddenly finds herself in a dark room and then suddenly the tv beside her was switched on. The video was played, telling her what to do to escape this room and the bear trap that was fixed on her jaw. Failure to do so in a limited amount of time, the video actually shows wat happened when the bear trap snaps open ripping the jaw of the woman if he fails to do saw. Its very sadistic in nature. He demonstrated the power of the bear trap by using a mennequin and its very.... disturbing.
What she had to do however is to find a way to unstrap herself from her seat and once she got out of her seat, the timer on the bear trap will start and she must use a knife to cut open her stomach's soulmate who was also captured and put in that very same room. The key is inside her soulmates stomach. She passed. The only survivor at the expense of her friends life.
there are many other examples like, a man trap upon layers and layers of fences filled with barb wire and he must force his way through the barb wire to the exit before the door closes. He failed. He bled to death before reaching for the door.
These are some of the very disturbing images and themes revolving this movie. Its a great movie in a sense that the director actually accomplishes his task of raising the climax slowly in the begining and finally to the max at the very end and furthermore there is a twist in the story, which i shall not say.
Overall, i give this movie 3.5 out of 5

BBQ, Adventure Camp, and Results!!
Ok, a few days ago, our class had a bbq!! YAY! It was soo fun, even though, only half of us turned up, it was still really fun to be with those who turned up and i really appreciate them being able to attend this bbq that was planned.
Anyways, me mizael, you sheng, and eileen went to the condominium, sun haven early to store all the food there in advance. We went there about 2 hours earlier than the rest. Christine Ong, our comm skills teacher was kind of her to buy us lunch and allow us to be in her home and all, seeing her cute little kids. It was a great day. Later in the afternoon, even though it rained, the bbq still continued and we cooked lots of stuff like satay, chicken wings, sausages, sotong balls, crab meat and many more. then some of use tried using the condominium's pool and hot jacuzzi. The Jacuzzi was GREAT!!! It was my first time in a hot jacuzzi and it really soothes my tensed muscles. I ate alot during the bbq and there is still ALOT of food left anyway, because lots of us didnt turned up.
I shouldnt be saying this but, we actually bought enough for at least 23 mouths to feed, the money spent was just enough if we collected from everyone in the class. However, we went over budget and hoping that those who did not pay would pay up sooner of later. 40 bucks was out from my very own pocket. To tell you the truth im a little pissed off, and to those who did not attend and is reading this, i hope that you at least feel the guilt no matter how small, that my very own pocket money was spent on you guys in advance for your sake. Your lack of compassion and your own selfish thoughts has made my precious 40 bucks, a week of meals down the drain. Im not forcing you to pay up, but remember this, there are some people who really go to great lengths to provide you with whatever you need and its you who are unable to see it.
Yesterday we had and adventure camp organised by our school, for our class. That day, only our class was supposed to be having this adventure camp. You know what, it didnt turned out as expected. Adventure camp, you now, there were supposed to be high elements stuff and lots of physical challenges. However, we played some simple games and nothing that demanding. In the end, it ended very early, like 2 or 3 pm instead of the stated 5pm or later. During that day, i also had a pals meeting. We were told out post in the committee and i was in the sub-committee. I am the Assistant Welfare Officer for SCL. Ok nothing too big, and i just have to wait and see what happens after that in the future.
RESULTS!
Today i recieved my results. I WAS TERRIFIED! But alas!! It was not bad afterall! There were some hits and misses lemme do a simple rundown of my results.
Firstly! My maths!! I thought i was going to fail 100% this time but i got a D!! Certainly im sure that the markers of this maths paper gave my a blind eye for this one. But im still really greatful that i dont have to repeat this dreadful module anymore...
2 modules were expected (hit): Comm skills and Micrbiology A. I got an A and a Distinction respectively. The distinction part was a surprise.
IMB was a miss: I thought i could get an A but i ended up B+ a minor grade a way from my target. Im sure that ive i studied harder before the exam, i could get an A which ever it is.
Physical chemistry was hit: Yeap, i got a C for my ICA but miraculously, after focusing on that module quite a lot, the effort payed off. I but not only a B but a B+.
Inorganic was miss: I couldnt believe that i got a C+ for the module. My expectations all along was a B at least. But nothing can be changed now. looking back, the results of physical chem and inorganic chem is a total opposite.
Japanese was a hit: I got a B for my ICA and i was very nervous doing the paper during the exam and from then on, i knew that i couldnt get an A, so i lowered my expectations and it came out true.

Pal Meeting
Today i didnt go for the Pal Meeting. I was tired, i got other things to settle quickly and also, at around 9.30am, we got an unexpected visitor, one of my relatives came to our house... you know, hari raya and all that stuff... Luckily i woke up at 9.00am, after i showered and had breakfast, they came. It was very unexpected. Anyway, they left at around 10.30am, leaving me with no choice but to not go for the meeting anyway.
I did promise to mizael that we are going to compile out journals to make into our own little autobiography right? well, yeah.. im still keeping it and today i dunno why, but ive got the inspiration to make a new blog and transfer all my entries from the easyjournal to that new blog then if ive got the time, hopefully, maybe i can do minor touch ups and edits and compile it into .doc file. Hmm.. interesting notion.. i might see what i can do about it.
I think one of the most tumultous years was during sec school, i was the band major, it was difficult and thinking back, i never really did know, where i get all the energy and the drive to achieve wat ive become of the band today and for myself. thinking back, where is my source of inspiration? Who is my role model? What drives me forward? Who drives me forward? Why do i do all these things for the sake of the school? Will i be able to bring that drive and energy to my new CCA, Pal? Am i ready to take once more another step into the unknown? Will i suffer more setbacks? Will my past negative experience and fears affect the decisions i make? Will i be able to have that level of commitment to my new CCA? Already, i have a post, year one... its a daunting task if that post is big. To tell you the truth, im not prepared just yet to deliver what is expected of me to the CCA... and to those who have the impression that ive already given up, youre soo wrong. Im really trying to fit in and its very difficult.

Okok.. so ive not been updating my blog for quite a while. I dunno but there seems to be a dip in my inspiration in writing my blog. Well, here goes...
Alot of things has happened after the first day of the PAL Camp. On the second day, we did treasure at Orchard Road. It was quite fun, i must say that this my first time in a series of treasure hunts that ive done, to be played at none other than orchard road! Its ok lah.. despite the flaws here and there.
Third day was nothing much, just feedback session, after that go home.
Yesterday was the day i realised that i lost my OCBC ATM card. And on the day, i realised that ive lost that card for 2 days now, without realising...
It happened on the second day of camp, when i was about to make a deposit of 100 bucks in one of the ocbc branch at norhtpoint. Before going for the camp, i actually stopped by Yishun. I was depositing the money and after that i left the machine without taking back my card. It was only yesterday that i realised that i lost the card. Panicked, i immediately called the customer service hotline, 1800 363 3333 if i can still remember. I enquired about what to do when i lost the card. The sweet and polite lady at the other end of the phone, kept me calm all the time and told me thouroughly what she was about to do when i lost the card. She did some background check on my and some basic verification verbally, like you IC number and the kinds of transaction that you made the past few days, sort of like a test to ensure that im the real person who is the one who lost the card. She then told me then the card, if ever found, will be given back to you and while the card is out there somewhere, the card will be hotlisted, meaning that the card will be rendered useless so that any person who encounters my card will not be able to use the card, for extra protection. However, the card if found will be returned within 7 working days and i couldnt wait 7 days, because i need the money soon enough. I asked her if its possible if i could get a new one, and she said yes, with a replacement fee of 5 bucks. Since i was at the branch itself, and the bank open and me sorely needed the money, i decided to make a new one. When i made a new one, she told me that she would not need to do a retrieval service and the card if ever found will be rendered useless permanently... PHEW!!
Today went to malaysia to visit my grandfather. Woke up at 6 am in the morning, went to my grandmothers place at 8 at Marsiling. then we head off to Masai, Johor. The trip there was not that bad. My dad got a new car a week before and we drove up to malaysia, about an hours drive away and the car was FANTASTIC! Smooth journey all the way, good soundsystem, and extremely stable. Hyundai Getz!! YEAH! Yellow. Going back was hell. The customs was CONGESTED! It took 3 hours just to clear both sides. We spent about 2 hours just to reach to the malaysian customs and another hour in the teeny weeny stretch of water seperating malaysia and singapore. 1 hour just to covered 1 kilometer. I was about to shout in rage!!!

Selamat Hari Raya!!
Yay!! Hari Raya has come!! Yesterday all my relatives were at my grandma's house and it was great to see all my relatives there! We ate, and talked and took pictures and talk somemore. This year, we didnt go to many houses but nevertheless i still got ang pao!! heheehe!!
Today, my relatives from my fathers side came to my house and my mum cooked a wonderful feast, lots of food for all of them. It was great to get in touch once more with my cousins from my dad's side. Haiz.. such good memories. NvM! Chinese New year! Get more angpao! This time, instead of them coming to my house, we will go to one of my relative's new condominium! So exciting! So many angpao! lol!!
Today, i just discovered something: The long awaiting new Gregorian, Masters of Chants album is finally out!! Its their 5th album so far and ive got all the other 4 already. I must get the new album. Die die must get ah!! Ive illegally downloaded the whole album of the new album but dont worry... ill get the original one soon when i see it on any album stores. You know whats the theme of the new album? ROCK!! YES!! The new albums features rock songs from many reknown artists from old and new!! Old artistes like Doors, The Aphrodite, and many more, while new ones featuring, Evenescence, My Immortal and The Rasmus, In The Shadows! The new album's new compilation of rock songs are really wonderful and its a surprise twist that they make a rock album this time, considering that the arrangement for all the previous songs are gregorian chants. Its really wonderful and im hearing it right now. The previous album has a special french song, but this new album has a new german song, entitled Engels. My favourite track thus far, very rock! The album name: Gregorian, The Dark Side! Wow, finally, it has been released!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Subject: Enquiry on Giordano's Autumn/winter collection in singapore.
To whoever it may concern
Enquiry on Giordano's Autumn/winter collection in singapore.
My name is Muhammad Jasrie and Giordano is one of my favourite brands in terms of apparel design and its emphasis on simplicity.
I recently noticed that Giordano has begun promoting its autumn/winter collection by putting up posters of models wearing jackets or sweaters in every outlet in Singapore. I would like to enquire however, whether these apparels being showcased will be sold in Singapore. Ive taken an interest in the black jacket that one of the male model is wearing that is being promoted in your outlets. Unfortunately, ive been to numerous Giordano outlets and it seems that they do not sell the jacket mentioned anywhere inSingapore
I would like to know if the jacket will be sold in Singapore, as i am very interested in purchasing one. I would be glad to hear from you soon.
Thank you.
Yours Sincerely
Muhammad Jasrie

To whoever it may concern
Enquiry on Giordano's Autumn/winter collection in singapore.
My name is Muhammad Jasrie and Giordano is one of my favourite brands in terms of apparel design and its emphasis on simplicity.
I recently noticed that Giordano has begun promoting its autumn/winter collection by putting up posters of models wearing jackets or sweaters in every outlet in Singapore. I would like to enquire however, whether these apparels being showcased will be sold in Singapore. Ive taken an interest in the black jacket that one of the male model is wearing that is being promoted in your outlets. Unfortunately, ive been to numerous Giordano outlets and it seems that they do not sell the jacket mentioned anywhere inSingapore
I would like to know if the jacket will be sold in Singapore, as i am very interested in purchasing one. I would be glad to hear from you soon.
Thank you.

Today i didnt do much. I was at home. Im really waiting patiently for the fasting month to be over so that i could get back on shape! I could do swimming, running, running more running and swimming. Damn.. i really really seriously to get my stamina back up and running. I dont care man, either school or outside, i must find somewhere where i could get back in shape!
Today, i watched spiderman 2, on dvd and it was great, i slacked alot today, really nothing to do, played star wars a little bit, gather news, watched van helsing after that, basically watching lots of stuff.
Tomorrow, im going to lavender to extend my passport espiry date. I real bugger and loads of inconvience i tell you. But i still have to do it, im driving up to malaysia sometime during the week of hari raya i think, to visit my grandfather. By then my family will be driving on a car! Hyundai Getz, yellow color... woohoo!!
You know, about the jacket i saw in Giordano, i still cant get my mind off it! Ive searched at northpoint too and they dont have it either. I might go shopping around town after the passport thingy.Ive email giordano for enquiries regarding the apparel, hopefully they reply tomolo and hopefully i get some good news out of it. I think this is the first time im crazy about an apparel, maybe due to the fact that i dont have a jacket?

Fantastic 4 and Halo 2 impressions
Before i give my very short impression of the game, i must remind you that im not a big fan of the game in the first place. My friend is, so i have no choice but to be interested in the game.
What i really wanted to say was that, upon playing the game, i was impressed by the improvements to the overall storyline, the slight improvements on the overall interface and loads of new weapons and alien monsters to kill. The game was well done and looked extremely polished from the very begining, the menu to the gameplay, to the voice acting, to the cutscenes, to the soundtrack and etc. I must say that this game deserves to be Game of The Year. although im not a big fan, i can feel that the developers of this game has done well in providing what the fans wanted all along in a sequel. What the fans want, the developers really give and they really really give more than what fans expect, from a non-fan's point of view. I could say that the developers have really spoilt the fans in giving so much more than the first installment. the gameplay is similar to the first installment, which was already very good, so they dont really have to change much in terms of gameplay. Overall, its a great game!
Finally, the first official pictures to one of the most anticipated comic book to movie adaptation is here! Presenting to you... the casts of Fantastic 4!!!
Yes! finally, what you see above and below are the first official pictures to be ever released that shows the casts and also the villians to one of the most classical comic book stories, The Fantastic 4. The movie will released sometime later on july 2005, around the time where all the summer blockbusters are featured in theaters and fantastic 4 is one of them. Another movie to take note of next season, is none other than Star Wars, Episode III Revenge of the Sith. First official poster and teaser trailer are around circulating around the net, so if you want to watch the teaser trailer, go find it! you wont be dissapointed.
Today, i went to my friends house to play Halo 2! He bought the limited edition halo 2 game that comes in a metallic jewel case plus an additional dvd that contains lots of goodies, like the making of the game, extra unseen footages, outtakes, concept arts, and many many more! the jewel case looked really neat...Before i give my very short impression of the game, i must remind you that im not a big fan of the game in the first place.

PAL interview
Today i attended the PAL interview in school, from 12 to 3 pm. It was different from what i imagined or expected.
Firstly, we did a questionaire, questions, regarding knowing more about yourself and some other general problems that tests your reasoning ablities and the abilites as a leader. It was nothing difficult. The questions are straightforward and i simply gave them a straighforward answer, no use beating around the bush and being egoistic about your responses. Works great in theory but if you were to write something that you cannot apply in real life, its no point lying that you can do based on what youve written.
Next after that we played some games that tests some of our ablities. The games, as simple as it was, carries some valuable lessons to be learn and the some of the exco members were there to evaluate us.
After that, the interview. The interview is not a one on one interview. Instead, it was a 3 to a group kind of interview. Before we were interviewed, we were given a problem to solve. 15 minutes was given to discuss with your group members and to come up with a solution to the problem. The whole point interview was actually to come up with a suitable response and approach in regards to the problems. Also, the interviewer, the exco members that is, also evaluate our ability to speak out and speak your mind out. Furthermore, they were also testing, whether you can communicate well and bring forward your message clearly. It was not difficult to come up with a solution, but there were many "what if" questions, those questions that bend the overall scenario to the problems that results in different circumstances and often we were tested to see whether we can think quickly and on the ball a solution to the new problem.
Nothing much, but the whole interview thing was a surprise, especially the 3 to a group interview. It was rather refreshing going to that interview and it sort of remind me of my weaknesses and strength and in a way gives you an opportunity to reflect upon yourself and give a general overview of yourself based on the general self evaluation and peer to peer evaluation that was done after all the activities were over. After that i went home....
Tomolo im going to my friends house!! YES YES YES !! He has bought Halo 2 for the XBOX!! although im not a fan of the game, since the first game is good, but not really for my taste, it was a really fun game to play and well done too, considering that you are playing a first person shooter on a gamepad and the game has done it well to make it userfriendly. The second installment however, is one of the most anticipated games of the year,2004, other contenders, being GTA: San Andreas, Prince of Persia 2, Warrior Within, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2, The Sith Lords, Halo 2 of course, and Half Life 2. I cant wait to see how beautiful the game is... The reviews on gaming sites like ign.com, gamespot.com, gamespy.com and etc were given high rating on halo 2. Oh well, with games like these coming out of the market, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic will have tough time, fighting for the most honorable title in the gaming industry: Game of the Year. Star Wars KOTOR, the first installment received the title such as Game of The Year, RPG Game of The Year, X Box Game of The Year and many more from various entertainment bodies, such as PC Gamer, XBOX review committee, Billboards, BAFTA, something like oscars but its the british version of it, and many more. I doubt KOTOR II will get the title game of the year, but im pretty confident it will get the title RPG game of the year. Its impossible to compete with those overlyhyped, overly advertised games such as Half Life 2 and Halo 2. This year as many people called it, as the year of the sequels, in both movies and gaming.

Giordano Autumn/Winter collection.
Today, i was going to the library at woodlands to return some books and i usually passed by causeway point. I was passing by giordano's outlet and they have autumn/winter collection. There was this model who was wearing quite a cool looking jacket. It didnt look like a jacket, more of like a windbreaker/long sleeve shirt hybrid. know what i mean? Its very hard to explain.It doesnt have the plasticy feel of polyester like a windbreaker, but it looks like it. And it looks like a long sleeve shirt. The colour is very dark brown, and it doesnt look very thick to make you suffer a heat stroke under the hot sun, yet it serves the purpose of keeping you fairly warm and comfortable. It was kinda cool seeing that apparel. I went to the shop, but the shop doesnt seemed to have it. That weird because, normally if they are showcasing a new apparel, there has somewhere that is sold in that shop, but not in causeway point. So i did not have a chance to really look at the design and feel the fabric. If its really cool, i might buy it, in malaysia of course.
In december, im going to Kuala Lumpur, for a very very short holiday, shopping actually for clothes for the whole family. I will be going there for 4 days, literally shopping there, and ill be going malaysia's biggest shopping mall! Times Square! SO BIG, that there is a full scale rollercoaster and theme park INSIDE the mall!
Ive been there before, when my band was treated to a short holiday at genting, on our last day, we took a trip down to KL via bus and make a stopover at Times Square. IT WAS REALLY HUGE!! MIND BOGGLING!I really enjoyed going there with all my band friends. But unfortunately, we only managed to walk about in the mall for about an hour. Because we were really pressing for time to go home, as the trip via bus back to Singapore is really really looong.
ill be going to KL by driving up to Masai, Johor to my grandfather's place. From there, we will park our car at his place and he will sent us to Senai airport, and take a budget airline to KL. SO EXCITING! Not of the trip, but due to the fact that im boarding a budget airline FOR THE FIRST TIME! its a great opportunity to evaluate the cost to service ratio while on flight. hehehe...

Ernest, wherever you are....
I'll Make a Man Out of You
Vocals: Donny Osmond and Chorus
Running time: 3:21
Let's get down to business
To defeat the Huns
Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?
You're the saddest bunch
I ever met
But you can bet
Before we're through
Mister, I'll make a man
out of you
Tranquil as a forest
But on fire within
Once you find your center
you are sure to win
You're a spineless, pale
pathetic lot
And you haven't got a clue
Somehow I'll make a man
out of you
I'm never gonna catch
my breath
Say good-bye to those
who knew me
Boy, was I a fool in school
for cutting gym
This guy's got 'em
scared to death
Hope he doesn't see
right through me
Now I really wish that I
knew how to swim
(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the strength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moon
Time is racing toward us
till the Huns arrive
Heed my every order
and you might survive
You're unsuited for
the rage of war
So pack up, go home
you're through
How could I make a man
out of you?
(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the strength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moon
(Be a man)
We must be swift as
the Coursing river
(Be a man)
With all the force
of a great typhoon
(Be a man)
With all the stength
of a raging fire
Mysterious as the
dark side of the moon
To my dear friend, Ernest, whereever you are, i hope you are doing fine. Remember the above song? Our so called Mulan play, during primary 5? You were General Shang, i was the teeny weeny dragon during the play. I remembered you lip sing this song with other performers of our class. It was done fantastically and i could never forget the moment spent on preparing this act together and selecting a few scenes in the movie to act out. It was really fun. Well, whereever you are, since ive lost touch with you, i hope you come across this blog ( one in million chance) and i hope you could write to me.

Finally exams are over!!!
Yup, finally the exams are over and im going to make full use of the holidays right here right now!
To top it off, the last paper of Microbiology A, it was above avearage paper, with questions asking you to simply vomit out what you have memoried. nothing difficult about that, although im kinda stump at one or 2 questions but nothing serious i hoped.
Yesterday, went to Seiyu, and finally bought my wallet!! Billabong, 100% leather wallet that i bought at The Wallet Shop. It brownish black, slightly smaller than the one i had and its pretty neat to begin with. It has the brand, Billabong, branded onto the leather, with really nice designs in it. It costs $54.00 for the wallet. woohoo... Finally got a new wallet.
When i got my wallet, my dad told me something funny... The wallet had extra slots for card, so i told my dad, maybe i could get a debit card to fill up that space probably when NYP has more of those credit card roadshows in the canteen or at the campus center. But my dad told me: No need! i have lots of those expires credit cards! You just put there and show that you have lots of those prestigious credit cards! I was like wat the hell! Why would i want to put something useless there? Im not a show off or anything. I dont like to be a pretender. Lol... interesting notion, but its not something id do.
My parents have been cleaning the house for Hari Raya and ive been getting running nose, because i cannot tolerate too much dust in the air. Thats why when i do spring cleaning, i try to avoid as much as i can especially when asked to clean something or somewhere where there is lots of dust. I cannot stand it. My nose will itch and the whole day will be ruined, sneezing and sneezing and sneezing.

Remember i told you that im going to share with you a tv series that ive been watching? well, here it is... A brand new TV series, airing in USA, not available in Singapore just yet. hehehe.. ive got previliges in watching brand new tv series ahead of others.. Well enough bragging. Im going to explain in greater detail with lots of pictures of what this tv show are all about and all the characters in it.
Out of the blackness, the first thing Jack (Matthew Fox, Party of Five) senses is pain.
Then burning sun. A Bamboo forest. Smoke. Screams. With a rush comes the horrible awareness that the plane he was on tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a Pacific island. From there it's a blur, as his doctor's instinct kicks in: people need his help. Stripped of everything, the 48 survivors scavenge what they can from the plane for their survival. Some panic. Some pin their hopes on rescue. A few find inner strength they never knew they had -- like Kate (Evangeline Lilly), who, with no medical training, suddenly finds herself suturing the doctor's wounds.
Hurley (Jorge Garcia) – a man with a warm sense of humor despite the desperate situation – does his best to keep his cool as he helps those around him to survive.
Charlie (Dominic Monaghan, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring trilogy) is a faded rock star who harbors a painful secret.
Sayid (Naveen Andrews, The English Patient) is a Middle Eastern man who must wrestle with the racial profiling directed at him by some of his fellow survivors.
Jin (Daniel Dae Kim, Spider-Man 2, 24) and Sun (Yunjin Kim) are a Korean couple whose traditions, values and language are foreign and thus causes much to get lost in the translation.
Sawyer (Josh Holloway) has an air of danger surrounding him, and his intense sense of mistrust for everyone around him could prove to be fatal to his fellow castaways.
Michael (Harold Perrineau, Oz) has just gained custody of his nine-year-old son, Walt (Malcolm David Kelley, Antwone Fisher, You Got Served), after the death of his ex-wife – they are a father and son who don't even know each other.
Locke (Terry O'Quinn, Alias, Primal Fear) is a mysterious man who keeps to himself, and who harbors a deeper connection to the island than any of the others.
And self-centered Shannon (Maggie Grace, Oliver Beene) – who actually gives herself a pedicure amid the chaos – and her estranged controlling brother, Boone (Ian Somerhalder, Smallville) – constantly bicker and must learn to get along if they are to survive.
The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must work together against the cruel weather and harsh terrain if they want to stay alive. But the island holds many secrets, including the intense howls of the mysterious creatures stalking the jungle, which fill them all with fear. Fortunately, thanks to the calm leadership of quick-thinking Jack and level-headed Kate, they have hope. But even heroes have secrets, as the survivors will come to learn. From J.J. Abrams, the creator of "Alias," comes an action-packed adventure that will bring out the very best and the very worst in the people who are lost.
Jack (Matthew Fox)A doctor, he emerges as the leader of the castaways. He has a lot of skills which come in handy in a crisis situation, but he's not without his own skeletons in his closet.
Kate (Evangeline Lilly)A fugitive from the law, she was travelling with a US Marshal when the plane crashed. Not much is known of her crime. For Kate (which may or may not be her real name), the crash represents a fresh start for her.
Charlie (Dominic Monaghan)The bass player for the band Drive Shaft. He has a drug addiction, and as of now still has a stash which he retrieved from the plane.
Hurley (Jorge Garcia)Warm, nice, and friendly. He's a big guy, willing to help, but is queasy at the sight of blood. Says "dude" a lot.
Boone (Ian Somerhalder)Shannon's brother. Works as a lifeguard, but he may have to rethink that. May be wealthy.
Shannon (Maggie Grace)Boone's sister. She holds on to the belief that they will be rescued soon. Also holds on to the belief that the world must obey her every whim. "Studied" in Paris. May be wealthy.
Michael (Harold Perrineau)A father who flies to Australia to gain custody of a son he hasn't seen in years after the death of his ex-wife.
Walt (Malcolm David Kelley)Michael's 9-year-old son who's travelling with his father after his mother's death. Has a pet dog, Vincent.
Sayid (Naveen Andrews)A former member of the Iraqi Republican Guard who served in the Gulf War. He's handy with electronics, and terribly good in Math.
Sawyer (Josh Holloway)Hot-tempered and rough-and-tumble. Appears to be the typical Southern redneck, yet he has a softer side which occassionally shines through his exterior.
Locke (Terry O'Quinn)A mysterious man who seems far too at ease in this situation. He may hold the key to where they are and how they got there.
Jin (Daniel Dae Kim)One half of a non-English speaking Korean couple. He is controlling and protective of his wife, Sun.
Sun (Yunjin Kim)One half of a non-English speaking Korean couple. She seems to be forced into a conservative role, but seems to have a rebellious streak in her.
Claire (Emilie De Ravin)An Australian woman 8 months pregnant, even though she's single. "Very modern of me," she says.

Third paper inorganic chemistry.
The paper is ok lah... The section C is quite a killer lor and i really hate the first Essay question. Later tell you why.
The Section A and B is quite easy, breeze through the paper with little difficulty, but i realised that i made some mistakes.
Section C!! Wah lau killer section ah! Ruined my hopes in safely maintaining a B ah!! The stupid question on contact process!! What the hell! I have no idea it was SO3. What? oh.. Pure chemistry in secondary got learn before, and i expect to know contact process and the WHOLE process of the manufacture of sulphuric acid! WTF!! At least if i dont know how to calculate the x and y at least give me a chance to do the other sub questions lah! that question is totally not fair! WTF@!@
