The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor

It's movie time!!!

Warning!!! Spoiler ahead!!!

********************************************************

I have been waiting for this movie, The Mummy: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor, for a very long time, and as usual, I went to watch this movie on the first day which it was just released!!! Jet Li, my childhood idol until now, also acts in this movie too, but acts in evil role.

Explorer Rick O'Connell to combat the resurrected Han Emperor in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex, wife Evelyn and her brother, Jonathan. And this time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service. Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress to spend eternity in suspended animation, China's ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta army.

But when dashing adventurer Alex O'Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his parents. As the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world domination has only intensified over the millennia. Striding the Far East with unimaginable supernatural powers, the Emperor Mummy will rouse his legion as an unstoppable, otherworldly force... unless the O'Connells can stop him first.

Begins the searching for the tomb of the Emperor, but beware, of traps!

Found it, yeah! We will going to be rich!

The rise of Dragon Emperor, will it be the end of the world?

Lin, the Guardian of the Tomb. Isabella Leong is the actress for this role.

Michelle Yeoh, as Zi Juan, the double-crossing sorceress, who cast a curse on the Emperor long before time.

Yeah, that's my man! Jet Li! He acts as the merciless Emperor and rides on a horse.

Brendan Fraser, as Rick O'Connell, and Maria Bello, as Evelyn Carnahan O'Connell.

The Emperor, with supernatural power! Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth, be my call!

Hey you, come and fight like a man!

********************************************************

This is a movie not to be missed!!! You can enjoy the thriller, the action, the jokes and the romance inside too! Or you want to see Brendan to kick some Mummies, you are certainly need to watch this!!!

Chicky Pub

It's lunch time!!!

I came across to this restaurant, Chicky Pub, when I'm searching for lunch together with one classmate. The restaurant is located at New Bob Building, Gottlieb Road, just opposite of Penang Chinese Girls High School. First time saw this restaurant, and no need further suggestion, just go in for a try.

Chicky Pub, a franchisee fast food restaurant in Korea and Penang branch is the second branch in Malaysia. The first one is at Ampang, KL, if not mistaken.

A nice environment inside, got Korea atmosphere? Just simple decoration but yet, refreshing and clean environment.

When I looked over the menu, gosh, it is so expensive for the ala-carte! The price for a plate of chicken costs RM30 like that, and RM20 for a plate of spaghetti.

But luckily, the restaurant provides set lunch too, with the price at RM11.80 and RM12.80, and it includes with service charge and government tax! The price is quite reasonable.


The set lunch comes with one glass of Pepsi.

And coleslaw, corn salad and garlic breads. The salads are just nice.

This one is DdukBokki Pasta, which smells good, and it is really delicious!!!

Well, I had this, Rice Gratin, which cooked with Korean recipe and the most important is, this rice is yummy too!!!

The price of ala-carte might get expensive, but still, the set lunch is quite cheap and reasonable too. Maybe next time I should ask couple of friends and taste the famous Chicken there.

X-Files: I Want to Believe

It's movie time!!!

Warning!!! Spoiler ahead!!!


********************************************************

I went to watch movie again, yes, is again! I watched X-Files: I Want to Believe just now, which just released today! I just cant wait and I want to watch it, that's simple! As a fan for X-Files since I was a childhood, I couldn't resist of this big picture!

So what is this movie all about? A mysterious movie, I would say that.

"To Find The Truth, You Must Believe"

X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE


This movie is a science fiction film, which directed by Chris Carter and written by Carter and Frank Spotnitz. It is the second feature film based on Carter's TV series The X-Files, following the 1998 film.

In grand "X-Files" manner, the film's storyline is being kept under wraps, known only to top studio brass and the film's principals. This much can be revealed: The supernatural thriller is a stand-alone story in the tradition of some of the show's most acclaimed and beloved episodes, and takes the always-complicated relationship between Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) in unexpected directions. Mulder continues his unshakable quest for the truth, and Scully, the passionate, ferociously intelligent physician, remains inextricably tied to Mulder's pursuits.

Mulder and Scully are drawn back into the world of the X-Files by a case.

Perhaps more clues...to something....can be found...

It's a story that involves the difficulties in mediating faith and science. It really does suggest Mulder's struggle with his faith.

Would you believe, Scully?

Don't give up! Just keep on searching!

Fans of the TV show may enjoy seeing Mulder and Scully back in action, but there's little in this run-of-the-mill mystery to attract the uninitiated. I just cannot understand of what the truth is, maybe it is just part of the interesting plot of this movie.

Zodiac - Sagittarius

It's zodiac time!!!

Sagittarius is often associated with either a Satyr or a Centaur (half man & half horse). In Greek mythology, centaurs were adventurous, brave, and wise, but they were also given to brawling and uncivilized behavior. Is Sagittarian like that? Just check it out below.

SAGITTARIUS 人马座 (November 22 - December 21)

Sagittarius, the Archer, is the ninth astrological sign in Zodiac.

人马, 射手, 是在占星里排名第九的星座.


Strengths:
-Optimistic 乐观-

-
Enthusiastic 热心-
-Independent 独立-

-Sincere 真诚-

-Versatile 多面手-


Weaknesses:

-Restless 不安宁-

-Impatient 急躁-

-Irresponsible 不负责任-
-Choleric 易怒-

-Bluntness 率直-

Independence is Sagittarius' principle, they crave adventure and excitement and welcome change with open arms. Sagittarians are known for their broad vision, tolerant attitude, freedom-loving philosophical air, and generally jovial spirits. They have a love of freedom, and a disdain for routine.

独立是人马座的原则, 他们渴望刺激和冒险, 及会尝试去改变. 他们以宽广的眼界, 包容的态度, 热爱自由和快乐的态度来面对大众. 他们热爱自由和蔑视的例行公事.

Generally quite easygoing, Sagittarians make friends with people from all walks of life. They love to laugh and tease, and get along well with both sexes. They have full enthusiasm over everything they do. Sagittarians prize themselves on their reputation for sincerity and lenience. They are very optimistic with every problem they encountered.


人马座相当随和, 和喜欢广交来自社会各阶层的朋友. 他们爱笑并取笑他人, 和对任何人都友好相处. 他们做什么事情都充满着热情. 人马座会对他们的声誉付出诚意和宽容. 他们会很乐观地去看待每一个问题.


Their optimism is both their strength and their weakness. After a conversation with these people, you'll probably feel stimulated and invigorated. They make life a little better for their positive, optimistic outlook. But sometimes that optimism can be a little blind to reality.


他们的乐观, 既是他们的实力和他们的弱点. 经过交谈, 这些人, 您可能会觉得刺激和活跃. 他们会生活在很好的情况下与乐观的前景. 但有时这种乐观态度可以是一个现实中的盲点.


Either way, Sagittarians are undoubtedly choleric in their temperament. Known for their exuberance and recognised as unafraid to take a risk or square up to a confrontation, given any fair excuse to go on the offensive, this is not a sign of irresponsible.


人马座是相当
易怒的. 众所周知, 他们的表现畅旺, 以及确认为不畏采取风险或正方形到一个对抗, 任何公平的借口去对待, 这些都是不负责任的迹象.

Bluntness of speech is a trademark of Sagittarius, where these people get impatient with indirectness. They like to outspoken and always will make others annoy and angry easily.

率直的谈话是人马座的特征, 而他们会觉得间接中的不耐烦. 他们很喜欢坦率直言, 而这些会使到别人觉得很烦, 有时候会很生气.
