Beverly. No More Tears.

I have found the song to accompany my photo documentary project.

Everyday, I meet, I interact with, these silly, wonderful, talented, promising, young people with so much time, so much youth to burn, burn, burn; So like me, us, so like how we were, in a teenage textbook movie, a lifetime ago.

Kenny n Sandy.

Sad. My mate Kenny is heading off to Hongkong to work in Nomura Bank, even before the long awaited housewarming party for his new house! But I wish him all the best in his new adventure and a part of me is a little envious that he gets the chance to go off on a huge adventure in the twilight of our youth.

Crazy running



Makes me feel like doing some crazy running.

My cat drinks soup with me.

I am drinking the lotus soup my aunt kept for me by the computer and Miu Miu hops over begging for a share, so I pour him some and he actually slurped up. Rather surprising how he refuses milk but takes to soup.

1,2,3

The soccer game this afternoon was rained out, so I was able to finish Infernal Affairs 2 (the prequel) and Infernal Affairs 3 (the sequel) to complete the trilogy. Immensely satisfying. As far as Hong Kong movies go, for me, the Infernal Affairs story arc is unsurpassed. Brilliant acting all round, Tony Leung, Andy Lau, Anthony Wong, even Kelly Chen, at the top of their game. An intelligent plot coupled with unexpected twists and poignant endings, I really felt for the characters, especially the tragic Yan (Tony Leung's character). The series has definitely left an impression on me.

Crossroads.

  考个像样的学校
  找个像样的工作
  住个像样的房子
  过个像样的人生
  终於有一天 我突然发现
  这就是我的人生吗?
  这就是我的人生吗?
  日复一日 月复一月 年复一年
  白衬衫 黑领带
  我的人生

Despicable Me.

"It's so fluffy I'm gonna die!!"



We caught Despicable Me today, and it exceeded all our expectations. I don't think I have ever been so tickled, and yet so touched, by a cartoon. Agnes, the youngest out of the trio of sisters really stole our hearts.

No time to dither.

I was seized by a sense of urgency today as I was waiting around in the office for my next lesson. I must learn something new everyday. If I am stagnant, I am wasting time, wasting life. No time for complacency, no time for politics, no time to dither. I have got a dream to strive for.
