#116 - 天水圍的日與夜 The Way We Are
Had been knowing about this movie for long but just got to watch it on the Channel 322. It's considered a low-budget and very down to earth film. The Chinese title of this movie is "Tin Shui Wai Days and Nights,". The film is set at a place called Tin Shui Wai in HongKong, a.k.a. The City of Sadness, and follows a hard-working mother and her teenaged son. Life occurs when the two be friend with a new neighbor, an elderly woman who lives alone..and some relationship among relatives.
There's no interesting storyline and not even climax. The emotions given is just very simple and calm. It's just showing the very true scenes of people's lives..the mother, the son, the elder.. Everything is just so normal as what happens around us every single day. However, it just touches people heart. I feel warm watching it and it gives me the space for thinking.
The movie also had been nominated for the best film at the 28th Hong Kong Film Awards. It had won numerous awards for the team, The Best Director, The Best Screenplay, Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress. What I can say is, worth watching indeed!

#115 - Reading
Spent almost an hour time here in a not-so-close friend's blog.. Reading most of her posts and I felt touched. It even made me feeling lump in my throat..I used to cry for books of some real life stories, and now I almost cry for her blog posts. Didn't know there's another part of her which was so great than what I'd had known..
Thru reading blogs, it helps us to understand more about the author, to see some hidden sides of a person as well. People just do not put everything on the face to tell what kind of person we are. That's why communication needed. For people we are not really close to and most probably we don't really get to communicate with these people oftenly, but we still can try to understand them by their expression in words. Sometimes, there's people I've never met before but we feel like an old friend. I kind of knowing them well and somewhat their characteristic and their ways of thinking impressed me too, by their words. When we write something about ourself, we can just express whatever in our mind, whatever our heart feels, need not to worry about who is listening or watching. It's something individual, it's something about oneself. We may tend to share our heart-felt thoughts but I don't really mind what others would response. Because this is just me and I'm not writing for publication, to fit everyone's favor and I don't even write a perfect article or grammars, as long as I know what I'm saying out from my own mind.
However, I seldom would like to post exactly what's in my mind here unless I really really feel expressive. lol~ I don't wish people to know me so well. haha..I know this is weird. I'm always being judged for what others think I'm instead of what I myself think I am. It's fine, I don't mind. Whatever it is, that's it. I still believe that people who really understand me, they will always do.

#114 - Starbucks Good Coffee Day
I reached office in the morning and being told that today is Good Coffee Day and Starbucks are giving away this Freshly Brewed Coffee from 10am-12noon! What a "bad" thing was, server was down again and there was no internet in the office so we couldn't work on anything... Instead of wasting time complaining on the server thingy, we drove all along to the nearest Starbucks for our morning break! :D
I usually don't believe in FREE stuff, but anyway it was really FREE this time! Haha~
How about they consider giving away FREE tumbler next time??
Heart Starbucks!!

Personally I'm kinda into those plaid, polka dots and floral patterns! They just simply caught my eyes and always became the items I'd first pick up in my hand. Without realizing it, they just appear out of nowhere silently in my wardrobe.. haha!
And for this post...it's something about Burberry! I like Burberry..yeah..for sure the plaid, their ad campaigns, and also their superb creative director, Christopher Bailey, a brilliant, gorgeous and talented British fashion designer!
