baby reel

Mum pulled out a couple of old photo albums last night, and we stayed up a little late looking through them before bed.

MAN, was I cute as a baby.

...I looked like a boy, but you know, that's irrelevant.
Not very chinese looking either (my eyes took up half my face), which was a bit weird.
NEVERTHELESS, I was cute.


Fact of life #2298
Every child - with no exception - whose parents owned, and were capable of operating, some form of camera at the time of said child's birth,
will have a potty photo.

Definition: potty photo
YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS. DON'T LIE.

Fact of life #2299
No matter how cute your misshapen head was, how happy you looked, how adorable you were in those striped pyjamas, no child will ever want The Potty Photo to (dis)grace the eyes of anybody outside the family. Heck, never take it out if you can help it. Do not acknowledge its existence (even though everyone already knows). In fact, when mummy's not looking, burn it.


No kidding.
I, personally, do not have a Potty Photo. No such picture exists in my album. That's right, I am Potty-Free! Potty Photo? What is this Potty of which you speak? Pfft. What? Who said that. I just told you, I don't have one! STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!


Final Remark:
The same rules apply to The Bath Photo.

Knowing, Nicolas Cage

SPOILER ALERT: It's only a one line spoiler, but it's pretty major, so if you're planning on seeing this film, either be spoiled, or stop reading now.


So I watched this on DVD with my family last night. Not a bad film; good premise, quite interesting, lame ending, but not draggy.

Here's the spoiler: Nic Cage doesn't save the day. He can't. He fails @ being the hero. The world ends. *deng deng dengggggg*
We all found him rather lame.

And after the movie, all mum can say is this:

"Bruce (Willis) could've done it"


I wonder if she'll ever stop making me laugh.
