1) 10 Promises to my dog [Japanese]The moment I saw it in the inflight entertainment magazine on JAL when traveling back to Singapore from Japan, I knew it would be a really sad movie that would end up in me crying at many parts of the movie - as it is with all movies about dogs, or basically pets in general. I was right. Tears streamed down my eyes and I was sniffing away, trying to keep it as quiet and low key as possible so that I wouldn't attract too many weird stares. At one point in time, they had served dinner and I looked like I was crying over my dinner or something...

So, if you need to do some crying, watch this show. Besides being a MAJOR tearjerker, it is heartwarming - all in all, a good show, despite the fact that it was embarrassing to cry as hard as I did. If you are a fan of dogs, you absolutely NEED to watch this show. You'll be left swooning over the incredible "cuteness" of the dog.

Sigh, I want Keller back.

2) Naoka [Japanese]This is one inspirational movie that I would encourage you to watch when you get the chance.

While looking for a picture of this movie, I came across this movie review and I think it is good in that it is very detailed and that I kinda agree with it. So, please read it here.

3) Penelope [English]Suddenly, I have run out of things to say so I'll just put it simply, in four words: DO WATCH THIS MOVIE!

(And James McAvoy has that SOMETHING about him that makes me think he's... suave. Not dashing-mr darcy-good looking, but, charming. I like.)

4) Absolute boyfriend (Zettai Kareshi) [Japanese] I just watched the last episode of this drama serial. The ending is rather sad, but I was expecting it as it just cannot work out between a robot and a human being, no matter how much the robot develops to become something like a human being in terms of emotions and thought processes. I also knew the ending wouldn't be one of a happily-ever-after because I checked out the ending of the manga.

The show had its hilarious moments and it was very sweet. Yet it got rather frustrating when the lead actress kept rejecting the lead actor - which I somewhat understand since she knows very well that he is only a robot. Still, I'd extremely LOVE to have a boyfriend like him, although the likelihood of this kind of guy existing in reality, and my actually meeting him, is just... really low.

Random #1: SUMMER HAS COME EARLY! The weather these few days have been AWESOME. After Monday lectures, Po Yew, Janice and I made a quick trip to the Millenium Gardens just next to Law School to take photos. The sky is so blue, the sun is so bright, the grass is so green, the flowers are in full bloom... Forget about jackets. In Po Yew's words, which he said very happily, "The girls are wearing nothing!" Girls are walking around in mini skirts sans stockings and in spaghetti tops. Many people are now lounging around on grass patches too. I look out of my room window to see a group of people on the grass. And they actually brought out their computer screen from their room! Random #2: DINNER TIME FEELS LIKE LUNCH TIME Days are getting longer now. At 7pm, it feels like it's still 4pm. Get this, I took this photo at 7pm. Random #3: SMALL GROUP OUTING I actually just got back from a small group outing to the bowling alley, which also had a bar and a game arcade. A lot of pe...

Magical Christmas 2009 has come 11 months early

It has been snowing most of today, and everything is covered in snow - a beautiful, magical, pretty sight! It really is unbelievable how much snow there now is in Nottingham. Because it's Nottingham! It never snows in Nottingham, at least not for many many years past! Even in London, I heard that it's snowing so much that Heathrow airport was closed, train and tube services were stopped, SCHOOL LESSONS WERE CANCELLED! Why can't we have classes cancelled over here?! When I first woke up, I knew it would snow at certain points of today (but I didn't expect THIS much snow!). First shot of the day: Then the first of today's many snowfalls began at about 9plus in the morning. Here are 2 photos of the snow that collected on my windowsill: Another 'boliao' video of the snow falling: Before I knew it, it was time to go to school for lectures. After my 2 back-to-back lectures, I walked back with John and Po Yew. But, before we headed out of school, we went to the Dow...

Like some Airline video

I just watched the 3+ minutes of the "final chapter" of Little Nyonya, the Channel 8 drama serial that ended last week. [Spoiler alert] I think it is so unnecessary? Anyhow, from the time of 2:59 onwards, I felt like I was watching some kind of Airline video, the one where they would show before the airplane takes off, briefing all passengers on what to do in cases of emergencies and stuff like that? Seeing Chen Xi stand behind Yueniang like that reminds me of when the air stewards and stewardesses on the video would end the video saying, "Thank you for your attention. Have a pleasant flight." Don't you think so? On the topic of Little Nyonya, I read an article from Mediacorp TV about this "Final Chapter" and I really wonder why people are making so much noise over a drama serial such that Mediacorp people have to step out to make further explanation! It's quite ridiculous, frankly. Just read it here . After reading it, I laughed. AND the DVD is co...
