First of all if you have read the reviews, I’m sure you would know that the reviews are putting it down. However it’s basically not the review we are talking bout here. The movie to me was ok, quite action packed and fast paced.
I watched this in IMAX, and of coz it’s not 3D. The screen is really big and a little degree of curve. I find watching movies with this big screen not so enjoyable. With the little curve and the big screen and the seating I had, which was 6th from the back row, I find watching action movies a hassle.
The big screen actually forces your head to move rather than just the eye and basically I could not catch the whole screen in my eyes. Another thins is that the screen is slightly curved, which I guess is meant for 3D realistic movies, made certain parts of the screen a little blur for me, especially the edges. I believe that watching a non so action packed movie will be more easy on the eyes, for throughout the movie I had to move my head just to follow the tail of the action.
Now for a tag by Ah Wen, I need to list down my goals
I think those are goals that are really hard for me to achieve, but hey I’m trying and you can’t stop me.

Wow! I was the earliest in the office today. I’m not sure if it’s the whole company except the guards but am certainly the earliest in my division. I always wondered what it would be like to be earliest, to switch on the lights and to see if the office space is as spooky as it is in the middle of the night. Seems that its better in the early morning than the dead of the night, at least the office is kind of lit up by the faint light from the big windows.
I kind of like the atmosphere, fairly lighted and serene. May be that would be another reason for me to reach the office early. These few days is not really good for I have been shot down by flu and cold. Dizziness is in the air whenever I take the cough syrup and I think I’m liking it, but I forgot to bring my medicine to work today so I think I will not be so dizzy after all.
And as for my appraisal, thanks to all of you and your support, I believe I aced it, really well. Thanks again. Oh, by the way, if you are wondering, I reached the office today at seven in the morning.
Have a great weekend ahead and for those who took leave, have a great holiday ahead of you. If you are driving afar or going afar, have a safe trip.

The Qing Ming festival is a yearly event, as I described before. Well, what I want to tell today is something I truly feel strongly, but I could never do it to perfection. I am a person that deals fairly well with death and such, that is I do not go all berserk and asks you to stop talking bout it. To me, it will come either sooner or later, but which I doubt I can take it this easily too when it comes.
We bought a couple’s Urn place for my parents, near to our grandparents so our parents will be able to rest with them at least at the same location, which is Nirvana. In the process of all these, we were taken to the many expensive lands which was bought and duly renovated. They cost more than a detached house in town, I would say, in terms of millions. What caught my attention is something else, a guy, in his twenties and furthest would be just below thirty.
He goes to Nirvana Memorial park as often as twice a week or more regular, I can’t really remember. Some may say he is crazy going to the cemetery so often. He visits his girlfriend, which he bought an urn place for in the same room where my grandparents and eventually my parents will be. Accordingly, he lost his girlfriend to cancer and since then, he has been there very often, going to the cemetery, just chatting with her.
I imagined him, to have care for her and love her so very much. Which is what we should all do? We should learn to love and care for them when they are around, not when they are not. And even when it comes to that, we do it once a year, in the Chinese community.
I believe that many have lost the tradition as they just do as they are told without knowing the meaning of it, especially the younger generations, me included. I often wonder, why can’t we do it anytime we want to, as many times as we want to? Why do we need to wait till the season to do it?
I salute the guy, for his love, and envy his girlfriend. I wonder how many can even come close to him.
How strong is your heart?
How strong is your love?
How strong are you?

It was a Sunday. It’s an annual event with some arguments and stuffs like that the day or days before but it will all fade on the day itself. We normally make our journey in the late morning, but this year was bout noon. I, as always will drive, as with almost all family occasions.
The drive to Nirvana Memorial in Semenyih jam packed with cars as this is the season to visit those departed. It took quite some time to get there and perform the age old traditions in a more modernized way.
We used to tread along the sides of the hill, up and down and around graves just to get to my grandparent’s graves. Those were the time, distant memories. This year, somehow I felt different, may be I was different. I just did not felt myself starting the day before until it all ended.
During my visit, I could see some were actually having a picnic there. There was food enough to keep a family of 5 from hunger free for a week or two. However said that, it seemed that the cemetery no longer posed the eerie feelings, even children.
I noticed this girl in her teens, wearing dark blue jeans, which has beads sewn to its back pockets, with a white tee and an Adidas white cap. She was caught my attention in particular, but I do not really know why. She had thick lips, and her long hair pony tailed from the cap. Reminds me of myself when I used to do that too. Along side her there was a twin sister and also a younger sister.
The ordeal was not so bad, apart from a fool whom set an innocent tree on fire and fled pretending nothing happened, as well as inconsiderate and illiterate idiots that brought and lighted fire crackers when it is clearly informed not only by the government as well as the management with big banners to not do it. I know it’s tradition, but then we still can live without it, and especially without summons and jail terms if caught or injuries or death.

Some things were on my mind. Yes, you are right, some things were on my mind. There has been so much going on of late that I could not grasps or recall some of it now. Anyway, I just want to clear up some clouds and rain so I can see the rainbow right above my head. Work has been piling with meetings that last for hours and hours. The worst part is when conclusion time comes, something else will just pop up to deter decision making. All in all, things are settling for that and the battle has just started. Bear with me if you suddenly lose sight of me again.
There is something that I have been reading quite often with some people around me and well, I think I just want to take this opportunity to say something bout it. Judging is the word and inappropriate is the effect. I find that we are often shrouded with thoughts and predefined views, even I am guilty of it once in a while. But what I am trying to say is that we should learn and try not to do it unless we know what we are getting ourselves into.
We are often judged too quickly and judge others too quickly which in the end it turns out to be a wrong one. What I can say is we do not know what is happening most of the time unless it’s something to do with us and that is only if it just involves ourselves and no one else or no other elements. The reason I’m saying this is that we never do know what is happening to outside elements though they directly contribute to our state moreover if it’s bout someone else.
What I can say is just to observe and sit on the fence unless we know all the facts, judging are not in our hands. No one has that privilege to judge unto others, unless to ourselves. The same applies when we do not want others do something to us, then don’t do it to others.

I’m not sure if I’m a nut or what. This happened last weekend. Went uphill to Genting last week, not once, but twice. Went for a drink in there and then came back and worked the next day. Another trip after work and put a night there.
It seems to me that nothing much has changed, and yet, so much has changed. It’s ironic too, I know. The weather does not really seem that cold anymore from when I was there ten or even twenty years ago.
One day I went up to just have a chat and a drink, then the next day, went for a meal or two and chat and then sleep. I do not really find the place that interesting from the previous experiences but then the company did make a difference.
That night we just ate, went for a walk and then got back to the room and bath. After that we watched some stuff on the laptop and then went to sleep. Well, basically we just slept as we were tired from working. The next morning went downhill to have dim sum and then I had dinner with my family.
How things changed.
How time changed.

Song – Dilemma
Artists – Nelly featuring Kelly Rowland
I love and I need you
Nelly, I love you, I do
Need you
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
Boy, you know I’m crazy over you
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
You know I’m crazy over you
Uh-uh-uh-uh
I met this chick and she just moved right up the block from me
And she got the hots for me, the finest thing I need to see
But oh, no, no, she got a man and a son, oh-oh, but that’s okay
‘Cause I wait for my cue and just listen, play my position
Like a shortstop, pick up everything mami hittin’
And in no time I better make this friend mine and that’s for sure
‘Cause I-I never been the type to break up a happy home
But there’s something ‘bout baby girl, I just can’t leave her ‘lone
So tell me, ma, what’s it gonna be
She said, “You don’t know what you mean to me,” come on
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
Boy, you know I’m crazy over you
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
You know I’m crazy over you
Uh-uh-uh-uh
I see a lot in your look and I never say a word
I know how niggas start actin’ trippin’ , and hate up all the girls
And there’s no way Nelly go for it
Ain’t fuckin’ with no dame, as you could see
But I-I like your steeze, your style, your whole demeanor
The way you come through and holler, and swoop me in his two-seater
Now that’s gangsta and I got special ways to thank ya, don’t you forget it
But it ain’t that easy for you to back up and leave him
But you and me we got ties for different reasons
I respect that and right before I turned to leave
She said, “You don’t know what you mean to me,” come on
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
Boy, you know I’m crazy over you
No matter what I do
All I think about is you
Even when I’m with my Boo
You know I’m crazy over you
Sing it for me, K
I love and I need you
Nelly, I love you, I do
And it’s more than you’ll ever know
Boy, it’s for sure
You can always count on my love
Forever more, yeah, yeah

This songs brings back a lot of memories, a song that really hit it with most every back then. The catchy ahhh at the start catches the attention and then as the vocal kicks, it just makes and impact with such lyrics to start with. Then as the rap starts, the song just seems to give you a little confusion in genre perspective. This song was really a hit and you can hear it almost anywhere and I really like the catchy music with the ahhhh everywhere and the blend of voices with a change of genre and a nice bass at the background.
It does make me search for a while, replaying some flashback and videos of the past. I’m smiling now as I’m sitting here writing things. Those memories that I still keep in me, replays once in a while unconsciously, out of the blue. I think that is the beauty of it as it comes unannounced, at a random time, out of the blue, just to surprise me with a smile.
Mesmerizing my heart
You gave me life
Losing you and everything
Only permitted and allowed
Vagueness, consuming my soul
Entering my body, scarring my heart
Living off the dreams
In the sea of imaginations
Surrounded by purple lavenders
A fantasy I will always and surely keep

Song – 童话 (Fairy Tale)
Artists – Michael Wong 光良
忘了有多久 再没听到你
对我说你 最爱的故事
我想了很久 我开始慌了
是不是我又 做错了什么
你哭着对我说 童话里都是骗人的
我不可能是你的王子
也许你不会懂 从你说爱我以后
我的天空 星星都亮了
我愿变会变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手 变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会象童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局
你哭着对我说 童话里都是骗人的
我不可能是你的王子
也许你不会懂 从你说爱我以后
我的天空 星星都亮了
我愿变会变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手 变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会象童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局
我要变会变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手 变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会象童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局
我会变会变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手 变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会象童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局
一起写 我们的结局
This song is titled fairytale and well and zewt, you did mention that you don’t believe in such things and fairytale does not exist in life. Well, I agree with you and then I do disagree at the same time.
I did talk about this before and well, fairy tale is in itself fairytale. You can deem that it does not exist at all, but then again, there are fairytales that happened around us may be not always but even once is considered happened, right.
The song tells of the tale of a boy, wanting to be the angel of a girl. From the music video, you will know that it’s about a very sick girl and this boy is in love with her, not wanting to leave or be left. He wants to be her angel, spreading his wings to protect her. A fairytale nonetheless but a very touching tale indeed.
The song sings of my heart and mind, my feelings. Need not say more, but the last phrase of the song, “together we write, our ending”.

Song – Life Made Simple
Artists – Roger Kwok And Jessica Hester Hsuan
I was suddenly being caught by the tv, well Astro to be exact. I it’s just a short scene of a very popular Cantonese drama called life made simple, which stars Ah Wong. I think you all know which one it is, I hope.
It was the scene where Ah Wong came out of the surgery room and consciousness and blurted out that he is going to marry his little wife. Ah Wong is actually a special character as he is an adult but he has the mind and thinking of a child while his little wife is a normal adult.
In preparation of their wedding, he chose a set of traditional Chinese wedding costumes and decorated his bicycles. They rode on this bicycle in those Chinese costumes, sending out wedding invitations to all the neighbours around them.
What catches me is the happiness that is portrayed. They may not be the richest people. They may not be the most beautiful people. They may not be the most normal people at all. The scene left me smiling as I proceeded to bath after that short scene.
Though it’s just a drama and well, does life mimics it or does it mimics life. I think most of the drama and movies mimics life for they normally portrays society and only a handful comes from true imagination.
Now you tell me
Isn’t life beautiful
Don’t complicate
Isn’t life made simple
