My weekends have just started to become boring and it will remain like this for the next few weeks as Dearie has to attend revision classes and prepare for his exams. Well, I slept at dunno what time last night. All I could recall was that I woke up (as my mum came into my room to off my lights, put aside my laptop, specs, etc. properly so I could sleep well) and msg Dearie at abt 4am before I dozed off again. Up at 7+am and all the way till now, I haven't catch a wink of sleep. Home alone and really dunno what to do. There are many things I could do. Example, packing and cleaning up my room, attempt to locate my necklace and pendent. But I am so so lazy. I dunno where to start as well. Wait till I am in the mood next time bah. Wahaha...
Woke up and was playing Facebook. Addicted to Mob Wars. Last time I used to comment that Bro's game was not fun at all when it was just clicking here and there, with no action etc. Same for me now. Just click and wait for the results to be shown across the screen. I know it's kinda bo liao but well, at least something else I can play and train my mob to be powerful mobster. Hehe... Want to dominate the Mobster World but hor... I still got a super long way to go la. :P
Was switching between games and managed to complete 2 games. Installed them not long ago and finished playing them le. Installed another new game and was playing half way when my eyes felt like closing. I switched to Facebook and back to the games again. Made my eyes not that tired and I could still stay up till now. Dearie has been smsing me while having his lessons. Hope he managed to absorb what the Lecturer was teaching. If not, I will pull his ears for not listening to the class! Know he worries that I will be bored to death but no choice la. I got to bear with it while he tries his best to pass his exams. I also want him to pass his papers and graduate ASAP. Jia you Dearie!
Anyway, was so so bored that I went into GV and Cathay website to see what are the upcoming movies. Below are the list of movies that caught my interests and I would want to watch! Anyone keen to go with me? Some of them will be shown during Dearie's exam period and I guess I have to either go with other friends to watch or... don't watch at all. Haiz... Poor me... So anyone wanna pity this poor girl and offer to watch the below movies with her? :P

"Twilight" is an action-packed, modern day love story between a vampire and a human. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her mother remarries and sends Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she doesn't expect much of anything to change. Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike any she's ever met. Intelligent and witty, he sees straight into her soul. Soon, Bella and Edward are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance. Edward can run faster than a mountain lion, he can stop a moving car with his bare hands – and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. But he doesn't have fangs, and he doesn't drink human blood...
