Today

I did the laundry, vacuumed the floor, tidied the living room, watered the plants and fed the fish today. Guai rite?

Macdonald's has a McNugget promo going on. Four special sauces. Okay, Lemon is not nice. The Sizzler one is not so special, the normal BBQ sauce is better, i think. Thai Spice is not bad, but so-so. Wasabi is pretty decent. Ah, i think the good old Curry sauce is still the best.

Watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with Hanhui, Joel and Xiaozu in the evening. I read the book so many years ago that I can hardly remember the story.

I think my favourite part of the movie is the Television Room scene, where there was a tribute to Kubrick's 2001. I started to anticipate the moment I saw the apes on the TV. As the giant chocolate bar appeared, and the first notes of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" started to play, I recognised 2001 .. oh, and what happened next was so cool. I've always loved being able to spot cross-references!

Anyway, it was a nice show that looks as if it might have a sequel. After all, the book has a sequel.
