Just came back from the LOTR exhibit at the science centre... it was one of the coolest exhibits I've been to, and it's a definite must-see for those people who watched the movies. I always thought the movies themselves were really good, but when I saw the exhibit, it made me appreciate all the effort put into the making of it all the more. Annabel lost her wallet when she first walked into the centre. We were just walking, then she suddenly looked down and said "Oh shit, where's my wallet?" It kind of made me nervous, cos she retraced her steps, and she couldn't find it. In the end, it was at the lost and found... people sure move fast.
Things that freaked me out today:
1. The dissection of the pig's eve during class.
That was really creepy. You have this little lump of fat surrounding this glazed, glassy, dull emotionless eyeball. Then you cut it open cross wise and while doing so, the virtoeus humour and the lens oozes out. The humour is black, and it really stinks. But the lens is really cute. That's all I can say about it. Thang gave me this big heart attack when he suddenly dangled this fleshy pink mass of fat in front of me. I screamed. I know I sound like a baby, but it was damn scary and it just looked plain disgusting.
2. The Ringwraith at the LOTR exhibition
Annabel and I were looking at this waxen figure of Boromir lying in a boat and Mr Tan was talking to us. Then he suddenly said "Look behind you" So I looked, and as I did, that ringwraith standing behind me let out this hissing sound, and I screamed again (wonderful. Twice in one day) But come on, one second you're looking at this pretty realistic dead person, the next, the walking dead taps you on the back. How would you feel? It was damn scary.
