no regrets

if today is the only day you get, how would you like to spend it

又開始了

過去了的已經不重要了,重要的是從現在開始面對更新更難的挑戰重新出發。今天又開始沒有周末的日子,感覺不太壞,可能習慣了吧。覺得今天的那些錢付得還算值,像是學到了很多。希望今年能學到很多新且有用的知識,還希望今年一切都能順順利利。

Gulliver's Travels

Tuesday is movie night. This time, we watched Gulliver's Travels. This is another redone movie.
There is some funny moments in the movie. Yet, I would not give this movie a high rating. It would be a nice and relaxing movie but it is not worth to pay $13 for it.

The story is about this typical mail room guy's adventure experience in the island of Liliput, where he towers over its tiny citizens. It is the first time he feels 'big' and powerful. He always think he is a small mail room guy and never try to take an extra step.

This movie reminds me...
If you want something, you need to take that step or otherwise you will never get it. Same theory applies to career, family, relationship...etc.

No Strings Attached

This is a movie just came out this Friday. It is romance, comedy movie. I picked it because I liked the Proposal.

Compare to the Proposal, I think Proposal is more successful in all perspectives, script, funny actors...etc. The theme of No Strings Attached is good, but most the funny scenes linked to sex jokes. Sometimes, it is not even that funny. The story is about this girl starts off a friends with benefit relationship with this guy because she doesn't want any commitment, and she ends up fall for him. This is not a new/interesting story. Everything is predictable and I won't feel bad if I miss part of the movie.

Girls are not strong or independent even they appear to be...

The Green Hornet

I watched this movie the other night.
I think this is Jay Chou's first holywood movie. I didn't go for him, I went because friends picked it. Since I didn't expect much from the movie, I didn't really get disappointments as well. Honestly, I like Jay Chou's music but not his acting. Surprisingly, his English is not as bad as I have been told.

Back to the movie...
This is a funny movie. There isn't much story but I like the funny parts. I watched on a weekday, it is a pretty relaxation after work. You can laugh off a lot of stuff. Seth Rogen is pretty funny, he uses he chubbiness pretty well in the movie as well. I would rate this movie as 6 out of 10.
The story line goes from the son hates the father to finally understands and likes his father. It is a reminder. We should cherish people around us, before it is too late. We just need to communicate before misunderstanding happens.

Lastly...
I am having a good day... I passed. =) 2/3 to go..

Social Networking tools

I banded facebook from my list for a while. Ever since I realize how much time I wasted on facebook and how much privacy exposure on facebook, I stopped going on facebook. I am not saying facebook is not a good thing, I would still go on if I have to. However, I am not addicted to it anymore. I would admit facebook is a good tool of social networking. It is not the first one, but it is a successful one without a doubt.

Recently I play with twitter. I never have it because I don't like to stalk people. After I installed it, twitter changed my view. People (at least the people I follow) don't really post the stupid stuff as I thought. I get quite a bit of information from twitter, new and fast information. It is pretty impressive. There is a Chinese version of twitter as well. It is interesting to see two complete different kind of people social networking. The content and perspective of theirs tweets are very different.

My colleague said 90s are heavily rely on technology. I guess it is understandable. You just have to use technology wisely.

Let the bullets fly

Since this movie is popular in China in now days, I downloaded and watched last night. I personally don't like the movie. The casting and production is pretty big, the storyline and idea is not as good.

With such big casting, actors did a fine job in their roles. However, I think the scrip is badly written. It is pretty much a Chinese version of Robinson (I haven't watched Robinson yet.) idea wise. There isn't much in the movie. At least it is not as good as I expected.

I personally won't pay that $13 to watch this movie. Maybe there is something else in the movie that I don't see. 0.o

看到你們好比甚麼都高興

前段時間忙,連聖誕聚會都沒有機會去。近來有些時間,有機會跟親友見見面很開心。不用得到些甚麼,不需要任何大場合,只要簡簡單單的見面聊天,看到大家健康幸福就好。^o^

羨慕

是羨慕不是妒忌。
我明白每個人都有自己的路要走,選好了就走下去。每個人的人生目標都不同,想要的東西也不同,重要的是都在朝夢想前近。我沒有妒忌任何人或事,也從不想說如果我是怎樣怎樣就好了。始終路是自己選的,重要的不是你的起點在哪裡,而是你的終點。
但是我還是羨慕, 羨慕一些人可以做自己喜歡做的,把興趣變為專長。羨慕他們可以很大聲告訴別人他們喜歡甚麼,不喜歡甚麼。羨慕他們可以無後顧之憂做自己喜歡的事,且得到很多支持和掌聲。
只是羨慕不是妒忌,發完夢還是要回到現實。每天做好自己應該做的。

slow January

It is been a week after I back to work from the new year/exams. I have been told the office would be slow in December and January. Now I totally understand.... I am out of work every morning, have to wait for boss to give me some work. Colleauges are pretty chill, especially when the boss is gone.

I know this kind of good times will not lasts long, it will be extremely busy when it hits March. I should prepare for it. It is a good time to clear my mind and sort some stuff out. =]

*still praying that I pass...*

哈日

不要誤會,我不是哈日族。縱使我喜歡很多不同的日本文化,音樂,劇集甚至食物,但我不是哈日族。比起日本文化,我自覺中國文化更有深度,尤其是文學方面。但不可否認的是,日本確有很多很好的,他們的好不能因為曾侵華而磨滅。都說日本很多都是抄的,但人家真的抄的漂亮。我是一直不太明白,為甚麼中國人設計的汽車和衣服(看大陸的時裝劇,港臺例外)會如此沒有美感。你可以說我比較膚淺,我喜歡漂亮的東西,視覺效果很重要。日本人有本事將日常用品的質量和美感提高到此水平,我們不得不服。

Praying...

The exam is done... now all I can do is praying.
Hopefully I did ok, hopefully I will pass.

I don't feel relieve at all. Today is the first day back to work in the new year. Finally I can go back to my daily routine. My new year resolution for 2011 is... cherish everyday of life and learn something new everyday.
I really like this quote and it inspired me.
"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, today is gift."

Good Luck!

It is now less than 24hours to go. I really need the luck.
I wish all of you good luck as well.
