Merdeka Eve '08

Went to The Curve with 3 of the Tuna girls, Krys n Darren to celebrate Merdeka Eve on Saturday. It was kind of a small celebration this year compared to what we did for last year's Merdeka Eve celebration. But it was still fun!

The girls all felt like eating rice so went to have our dinner at Dragon-i. We ordered dishes to share n it was awesome! It was really family-reunion-ish bcus we sat at a round table with a lazy susan in the middle.

After dinner, we decided to go drink n hang out (while waiting for the countown) at Laundry but the plans were 'destroyed' when we found out that there was a special Circus Merdeka Eve party n we would have to pay a RM50 entry fee js to get in! What a bummer! So, instead, we went to explore the bazaar for a while n then decided to go watch Death Race cus Krys watched it b4 n said it was awesome (n she wanted to watch it a 2nd time). Boy was she right! It was really orgasmastic! A real must watch movie! The movie finished js in time for us to catch the fireworks display which was not that nice (I've seen better).

We went home after that but got caught in a massive jam for about an hour or so. Darren n I only reached home at bout 2 something after fetching the girls back.

Death Race

In 2012, the United States economy collapses and life for everyone is not the same. Once a NASCAR champion, Jensen Ames, hits rock bottom and spent several years in prison. His life was improving and changing for the better after meeting and marrying Suzy and having a baby girl. Then the steel mill closes, and he loses his job. But that was not the worst thing to happen to Jenson that day. Suzy is brutally murdered, and he is framed for her murder. Jenson is sent to Terminal Island, the worst and toughest for-profit prison in the country run by Warden Hennessey. She has created the country's most popular pay-per-view sport, a kill-or-be-killed car race where the inmates race to win their freedom from prison after 5 wins. Every inmate driver is driving a monster car that they built which is loaded with machine guns, missiles, flamethrowers, napalm, and no rules. Warden Hennessey convinces Jensen to secretly take the place of the late 4-time superstar winner, Frankenstein, and wear his metallic mask in the race. If Jensen wins just one race, he can go home to his baby daughter. To get to the finish line, Jensen must kill his competition before they kill him.
