I’m in school computer lab now. Today we actually learn how to use blog… So… I created another blog. I don’t even update when I only have 1 blog, not to mention 2. lol.

Life in NIE has not been very exciting, partly because of its location. I need to travel 1 hour plus to reach school. The travelling already drains my energy every day. To my dislike, the course is CA based. I have assignments and presentation almost every week. Well, I guess I cannot complain too much since I am paid to study.

Just realized that I didn’t even finish blogging about my grad trip. I guess I should finish that soon. Just upload some of the photos I guess.

Weekends are quite tiring nowadays. Last Saturday I left home at 8am plus and reached back at midnight. I went to watch Money No Enough. It was very entertaining, although part of it made me very sad. It reminded me of something happened in the past, something that I hope never had happened. Well, after the movie, I went to collect my bowling shoe and bought one very nice strap for my new LG Viewty. Then we went to Villa Bali to meet up Ben and Swan. I haven’t been there since 10 July. Since Leng had to fetch me back, the 3 of us finished a bottle of red wine. So by the end of day, I was tired and drunk, and only went home to realize that I still needed to continue my ppt slides. Even though, I cannot wait for my next weekend to come. I wanna play bowling!!!

P.S. the camera of LG Viewty is quite good, even at night!

I went to watch ‘The Bucket List’ with Leng on Wednesday. I liked it, although it made me cry until my eyes were swollen the next day. It was the best movie I have watched in the past few months. My previous movies were Jumper and AVP 2. Not really my cup of tea.

The story was about 2 men, Edward, who was a billionaire and Carter, who was a mechanics. They were complete strangers until they shared one hospital room and were both given 6 months to a year to live. They made a list of things they wanted to accomplish before they would kick the bucket. As they went on with their adventure, they became friends, and helped each other realize the true meaning of life. It was filled with humor, but I teared badly towards the end when Carter’s wife kissed him for one last time when he died. It reminded me of my grandpa, who passed away almost 2 years ago, how I wasn’t beside him at the last moment of his life, how I couldn’t see him for the last time. I really miss him…

I realize that I tear a lot when I watch movie or TV. Top 3 tear catalysts for me:

1. One Litre of Tears: One box of tissue paper

When Aya cries, I cry with her. When she smiles, I cry even harder. Bravest gal ever. She fought for 10 years before the disease eventually took her life.

2. 霸王别姬: one packet of tissue

I started crying 5 minutes into the movie, till the end. I just couldn’t stop my tears from rolling down. There was nothing they could do. Their lives were not up to them to control it. One of Leslie’s most classic movie. He took his own life in real life just as the role in the movie. 

3. 穆斯林的葬礼: half a box of tissue

It is a book, about 2 generations of a family. They had the people they really loved, but couldn’t be together with them. The war, the cultural revolution, the difference in religion… How powerless people were in face of them.

P.S. I bought Juno soundtrack! I absolutely love it. I love the movie too! Missed it when it was showing, so I had to stream it on tudou with lousy quality.
