.remember the titans.

i celebrated jf's birthday last night with kns. as usual, most of us were late. i was complaining to her on our way to orchard that i was v hungry. i was planning to have a big feast. true enough, we ate alot last night. we had our dinner at crystal jade and took neoprints (our usual activity after dinner). the night was still young and we could not think of anywhere else to go. my darling eve suggested Kbox so we went to check up the price. however, pee and peiwen did not join us because one had to be home early and the later had no $$. =( to our surprise, it cost $21 per person that night. omg! that's way too off our budget. we decided to look for a substitute for Kbox - party world. when we went in, the atmosphere was not right. we could sense a strong smell of alcholic drink and smokings. yucks! it appeared to be a nightclub to us. we immediately grabbed our bags and ran out of the place.


so we were left with nowhere to go. we roamed around the streets of orchard road and finally settled down at billy bombers to have our milkshake. woohooo!!! lemon milkshake rocks unlike green grasshopper! haha... the quantity was LARGE! we took many photos and realised that the photos turned out to be better when we used the self timer function than asking the waiter to take a picture for us. no offence.


when i reached home, i was too lazy to move. it may be due to the heavy and big stomach i had after eating soooo much food. haha.. i was TV surfting. then, i came upon channel 5 and the movie that it was showing seemed familiar. ahhh!!! it is 'remember the titans'. omg! it's such a great movie. though i know the stroyline, i glued my eyes to the TV screen. it's about racial discrimination between the whites and the blacks in USA, how this football team, titans, taught the people to love one another regardless of the colour. btw, it is a true story. =)


the ending had touched my heart when all the players, both blacks and whites came together again after their college to pray when one of the players died. it shows that the spirit of titans live on after they had left the college. what's inspiried me most is the player who died was paralysed because of an accident but he did not give up on his life. he continued to push his limits in competing in the olympics races for the handicapped. =) at least he had led a meaningful life.

"before we turn conflict into hatred, remember the titans"
