The one with the lovely gentleman...and a not so lovely one after
sigh guess what?
i have finally found the perfect man.
and his name is Mr. Darcy :) *swoons dreamily*

unfortunately (sigh) he will only exist in books and on screen. but i did spend a good 2 hours in the cinema drooling over how perfect he was. he sounded more chivalrous in the book but i guess actually being able to SEE what Mr. Darcy looks like sorta helped.
(if you havent already realised, i finally watched Pride and Prejudice)
also saw the preview for Narnia and Harry Potter 4 which are definite must watches for me at the end of the year.
anyway, after that me, gavin and girlie went to Chapelli's to have a very late dinner after the movie during which i learnt that guys can have two kinds of wedgies??? one's the normal kind of wedgie and hte other one's called a Melvin. (just outta curiosity do Melvins know that there's a wedgie called a Melvin?) and when i asked gav what a Melvin was, this is what he said:
'its when you know!!! ngor liap at one side!' accompanied with very visual hand gesticulations.
*none hokkien speakers, i dont know how to translate ngor liap for you without it sounding impossibly crude, for those who can understand mandarin it's 两里*
i proceed to stare at him somewhat blankly before getting his meaning and bursting into laughter while girlie slapped his arm and went 'GAVIN!' and he protested with a 'whaaat?! SHE ASKED!'
and i admit i did :P
it was all very educational but REALLY! any guy that subjects himself to the torture of wearing jocks (i shall refrain from calling them tighty whities) fully deserves getting Melvins.

hmpf
too bad i can't run away with a fictional character
*thonks back*
I have been so enlightened. Now I know what to rub into the face of my friend, Melvin. >:)
"ngor" is Hokkien meh? I thought.. "neng" is Hokkien for 'two'?
Mr Darcy? . . . I feel like reading the book now. =)
tiff:: eh? i also tak sure leh. cause when we speak hokkien there's a mix of teochew in there so 'ngor' could be teochew instead?
comes from having one parent of hokkien descent and one of teochew. it makes us kids very confused :P
ke:: lol the last time i read it was like in year 11 but i have to say on screen mr. darcy looks a whole lot more drool-worthy :D
Ahaha same same. I'm Teochew-Hokkien too but I can't mix up the two since I'm more used to Hokkien ^^;
