Well, finally submitted my uni application today. Guess that's all for my part...the rest is according to Him. And with that, I can finally post this long overdue post.
Finally managed to catch Fearless last saturday with Yanquan, Daniel and An Ee. Personally, it was one of the better chinese martial arts film I've seen in a long while. The show was indeed worthy of its NC16 rating, with more than its fair share of bone crunching(literally) moments. Though the storyline wasn't anything out of this world, its tragedic nature appealed to me. I've always liked such storylines as there seem to be so many parallels and lessons to be drawn from.
The breaking of a brash youthful Huo Yuan Jia's pride who couldn't comprehend his father's seemingly foolish choice to show mercy, the realisation of his fruitless collection of victory death certs while his family was actually paying the price of it all, and finally what it means to give yourself fully to a greater cause. Though not fully accurate, it was an enjoyable one nonetheless.

Had the youths over to my house on last sunday after mandarin orange distribution. Wahh...the aftermath was akin to having an 8.5 Richter scale earthquake or hurrican rip through your house man!!
Hehe no lah...that was an exaggeration. But what's not exaggerated is how fast they make themselves comfortable and feel at home! We had just barely settled down after reaching my house and some of them had the instinct to go straight for my bedroom. After showing them around and having been laughed at for my childhood photo, I went to the living room and saw...
Cool huh?? Oh well...went to prepare some drinks and all. Thought of finding some solace and understanding from the guys in my room, went in and saw....
Double cool huh??? Heh...joking lah. Glad you guys settled down comfortably. Was a joy to have you all around. Really lahhh :D
Had the chance to celebrate Jia En's birthday..hehe, hope you like the cake man!
