A lil dosage of culture!

During the weekend just passed.. Oppa & I decided to get a bit of culture: be "edumacated" about the Egyptian mummies @ the Art Gallery and watch an Italian comedy film at Cinema Paradiso

The quick visit to the art gallery was not bad... good to see that there were a lot of other people there too! We moved through the exhibition pretty fast because we were running on a very tight schedule. However, I think we did pretty well for the 40 minutes of looking at mummies, all the jars where they store the intestines, lungs etc. But I think that was enough.. I have to say, I got a bit bored after that =P It wasn't like "wooo" and "ahhh" like when we were in the museum in Berlin.. seeing the bust of the supposedly most beautiful woman in the world (and no it's not Cleopatra!)... Nefertiti. I remember how I wanted to be a historian or even an archaeologist when I was in year 8.. I studied one term of The Ancient World and I got hooked. But then my bubble burst when I attended one lecture with J when she did Archeology 101.. yawn fest =P Maybe it got better after 101.. but hey, it didn't get my attention the first time, it never will!!

I'm still interested in the history stuff though. I wouldn't call myself a buff of any significant event.. but I know a bit about things.. I guess... I wish I had subscription to History channel on Foxtel... Blasted Foxtel.. increasing our fees again but no extra benefits.. grrr!!!!

Anyway, I digress...

So after the exhibition, we rushed to see Manuale d'Amore. An Italian film starring the sexy Monica Belluci . She heated up the screen without too much effort!! Sizzle sizzle. There was this scene in the movie.. it wasn't explicit or raunchy. It was sooo erotic and sexy in a sophisticated way..

we were starved after the movie.. quickly flicked through the entertainment book (ahh what would we do without it?!?!).. and decided to try Adelphi @ Parmelia Hilton. It wasn't bad actually.. the Seafood Delight was yummo! Large servings there.. we couldn't finish our chips so we took away.
Food wasn't bad... just we were too greedy and ordered too much =P

I just finished my last ever individual assignment for MBA!!!!! Woo hoo!! What a weird feeling... 2 more group assignments and 1 quiz.. and that's it!! My gawd.. it's soo surreal!!!!! What made it even more surreal was receiving the confirmation letter stating that I am eligible to graduate! Oh my goodness... Mar/Apr 2008 graduation ceremony.. sheesh does time fly by or what????

Oh.. I get to wear a mortar board.. woo hoo! haha
