close your eyes. what do you see?

PROMOS ARE OVER! YESTERDAY!
it feels kinda weird though, no exams, the lack of need to study. but... i'm not complaining! :D
anyway, after the history paper, i went over to weicheang's place, and i've officially made him hooked on to hana yori dango :D HAHAHAHA. he's most probably denying it vehemently.
oh well, annabelle, delphne and melissa came over to my place today to watch the shining and carrie.
The Shining was really scary. sabrina complained that we screamed too much. i kept my head hidden behind the pillow half the time anyway. i think i might die earlier. too much scare. there was this scene where this lady who committed suicide in the bathtub was this rotten corpse that was still alive. completely disgusting. melissa said she won't use the bathtub anymore. and i won't go to a hotel anymore.
the ending was pretty good, really touching.
anyway, Carrie wasn't half as bad as i imagined. i thought it'd be like another scary horror flick like the shining, but it was like any normal chick flick, only that Carrie was telekinetic, and she killed the entire gym full of prom people. and her mum. the ending was a completely shocker. all of us screamed when Sue's (the nice girl who made her boyfriend ask Carrie to the prom as a form of apology for bullying Carrie) arm got gripped by Carrie's bloodied hand from the grave or something while Sue was paying her respects to Carrie and her mum. the movie didn't follow the book, according to delphne. Carrie was supposed to kill almost the entire population of the whole school, but oh well, i really really don't want to see anymore murder. enough murder in a day for me, i say!
i don't think i'll be able to sleep much. i'm really damn freaked out. traumatised for life probably!
this reminds me why i always, and only, watch chick flicks. predictable endings. nice people. pretty boys to look at. and no killing. no blood. and no uh... lunacy.
stephen king sure is one nut in the head.

trivia:
King George IV was a fat man. He weighed 111 kg and was addicted to laudanum. He suffered from gout, arteriosclerosis (a disease affecting the arterial blood vessels), cataracts and possible porphyria. He would spend whole days in bed and suffered spasms of breathlessness that would leave him half-asphyxiated. He died at about half-past three in the morning of 26 June 1830 at Windsor Castle; he called out "Good God, what is this?" clasped his page's hand and said, "my boy, this is death." He died 9 years after ascending to the throne.
His daughter, Princess Charlotte Augusta of Wales, died after going through a 50 hour labour, only to have a stillborn.
