FIST OF DRAGON (龙拳) Gala Premiere

Sponsored Post

Got invites to Fist of Dragon’s Gala Premiere on 26 July so I went with Darilene! We went to the wrong venue at first because I confused Cathay Cineleisure with Cathay Cineplex hahaha omg feel so bad. And was contemplating whether to change out of the formal dress I wore for a school presentation but luckily I didn’t! It turned out to be a super exclusive event.

My pass and ticket 🙂

Lead actor cum director Michael Chuah was there, and so was Henry Thia.
Didn’t take much photos though, because I was feeling too shy and awkward LOL

Loved Henry Thia’s and Monday Kang’s characters best! And they acted very well too.
The former’s character was super comedic and the latter played a villian.

At the preview lounge with Darilene 😀
The “cocktail session” turned out to be a full blown reception!

Food was sooooo gooood 🙂



Movie Synopsis

“Fist of Dragon” tells the story of Li, who comes to Southeast Asia upon the request of his father to help out his uncle who has been facing financial difficulties. Li, upon arriving in town, feels out of place due to cultural differences. When he discovers that his uncle has been facing many hardships posed by the local mobsters, Li decides to stay and help his uncle get rid of them.

However, Li encounters numerous resistances from the locals as his actions incur the wrath of the triad and drags the whole town into turmoil. Moreover, his uncle’s daughter, Lily is on the triad’s side, and their relationship is badly affected when the confrontation between the two groups reaches its peak.

I like the themes in the movie a lot, especially how the town unites with one another to go against the hooligans. Like it teaches you something – to not be afraid to stand up to what you believe in.  I think fans of the action genre would also like the movie because the action sequences were all very intense!

Princesses’ Tale

Feeling you'd forgotten

The total number of hours I’ve spent sleeping over the weekends is definitely more than 24 so it’s like I wasted a whole day… hmm nothing new. At least when I sleep, I don’t have to think about anything else and I don’t feel like shit. How is it that I still feel so horrible after so long… It’s not like I don’t try? It’s not like I enjoy feeling so miserable? But seriously everytime I think, “This is it. Bad days are over. I’m finally starting to feel better,” I’m proven wrong, something or someone sets me off and I am upset all over again. Which makes me wonder I even bother trying, and why for a moment I even dared think/hoped that anything would be any different.

Dead

Well anyway it’s been another bloody week, more or less much the same. Only good day whereby nothing upset me was Tuesday. In fact the day started out so awesome, I was afraid that everything would come crashing down suddenly, like it was too good to be true.

So that day I slept in till about noon and decided to give the 2pm lecture a miss. Because I was procrastinating so much that I would definitely be late anyway -_- Then when I was still idling about at home, I heard that the lecture was cancelled and a lot of people went to school early for nothing :3

Anyway although I was a bit hesistant about watching Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows 2 (the last movie in the series I watched was Chamber of Secrets and I’ve never read the books hahaha wtf filthy muggle much) with the babies the past few days, that day I was just like, “Okay lor let’s all go” because that was how much of a good mood I was in that day. No work to worry about and all. So we were off to AMK Hub’s Cathay, all 4 of us! 🙂

Harry Potter

Deahthly Hallows 2

Okay to be honest I’d expected a lot more from the way everyone talked about it… I guess this is what happens when you never followed the series. But everything seems glorified and more epic on Tumblr and GIFs than the actual thing. Is it just me? [SPOILER ALERT]

Deatheaters

  • The front part was awesome
  • And the part where Hogwarts was surrounded
  • NOT ENOUGH RON / HERMOINE SCENES >:(
  • I did like Ginny a lot more than I did in Chamber of Secrets though

Ron kissing Hermoine

  • I thought they’d show Fred dying but they only showed him dead
  • I mean if you wanna make people sad then show how he died at least?
  • But then again could be because I’m not attached to the character..

Fred dying

  • Missed the part where George turned around as a habit but Fred wasn’t there..
  • UGH my life is henceforth incomplete just like the ginger family

George and Fred

  • Draco hugging Voldemort!
  • “On a scale of 1 to Voldermort, how awkward are your hugs?”
  • Don’t like how they made Draco look like a loser wtf!!! I love Draco ok?

Voldemort hugging Draco

  • From first movie until now I’ve been wishing he joined the trio D:
  • Like he’d be on their side and everyone is all BFFs foreva!!!
  • Since forever. This scene. Favourite part = RON’S FACE.

Draco dissing Ron

  • Prince’s Tale aka best part of the movie made me cry
  • “JK Rowling wrote a better love story in one chapter than Twilight wrote in 4 books”

  • Wow the last time I saw Neville Longbottom he was chubby and planking!!?

  • I like the trolls, spiders etc but the pui-ing each others with wands looks stupid…
  • Even the fight between Bellatrix and Molly Weasley… if you even call that a fight
  • NOT INTENSE ENOUGH IT’S LIKE THEY ARE TAKING TURNS TO POINT THEIR WANDS
  • Intense = Wizard’s Chess in Sorcerer’s Stone

  • I like their efforts to make everyone look old LOL

Okay quite nice but I think I missed out too much in between… Need to catch up soon! I did watch Order of The Phoenix but I didn’t really understand nor remember it. Still love the first 2 best 🙂 Felt bad because I kept asking Dian questions whenever I didn’t understand a scene hehehe.

Went to walk around AMK Hub with the babies after that!

Spent ages messing around in Rubi Shoes and the accessories hahahaha
No perfect shots, just perfect smiles

Super act cute hahaha but idc I rarely feel in the mood to take pictures anymore

Think I went overbaord with editing here… but whatever the original was too dark

Looking so bad no amount of editing can save me 🙁
Ugh need to go master Photoshop soon and I’ll always be looking fine on mah blogz

Gerry’s face looks like the frontal view of LOL meme!!! (Google it)

Dian doesn’t like her hair here but I think the pic is kinda nice so…
Let’s just pretend I have overwhelming love for her 😉

After messing around in the shops we were just sitting there eating meatballs and takos and everything was just perfect and nothing hurt ahhhh just wish I could stay in that moment. Forever. Finest I’ve ever felt in an awfully long time.

Life went back to meaningless and monotonous after that.
Some pictures from Thursday after I finished my work and went to disturb Darilene hahahaha. Damn funny, I remember at one point Mark wanted her to do something and she was trying to justify why she needs me to go with her :’D She used me as a guinea pig again!!!

٩(^‿^)۶

Finally a proper happy poast!
