Love Actually

This is one of my favorite movies, particularly for Christmas. "Love is all around" is the tagline of the movie but where's mine???

Anyways, it's a movie about love. Love doesn't concern about status, job, country of origin; Love is endurance and understaning, and what else? These are all I can get from "listening" to the movie and writing / typing my first movie review at the same time.

4 more days to Christmas and I should definitely watch this movie again during my Christmas Holiday.

Forever Enthralled

This is the first time in my life attending a movie pre-view - a real pre-view that the movie will only be shown starting Jan 1, 09.

This is a good movie I have to say, so artistic and so real but I think it's not fair to compare it with "Farewell My Concubine" as one is a biography and the other is a fiction (correct me if I'm wrong). But on the other hand, the performance of Leslie Cheung is much much better than Leon Lai.

I think I have to review "Farewell My Concubine" when the memory about "Forever Enthralled" is still fresh ...

Christmas Gift Exchange

We just had our office gift exchange for Christmas:

  • Every staff had to bring a present of HK$100 or below;
  • The staff had to explain why s/he chose that particular present;
  • The receiver had to express how s/he feel about the present.
The atmosphere was surprisingly warm and happy. With limited budget, everybody has put in their mind in choosing a meaningful present. I don't know how the others felt, but I was very happy about this. I hope everybody understand the value of the present does not matter but the meaning behind the present - it shows our appreciation and gratitude that we have received over the year.

Christmas is a not an excuse to hang out for fun. Please show your gratitude to the people around you in this joyful season.

Goolie is good enough

What have I done over the weekend? "Goolie". I didn't even believe that I personally have been to the HK Brands & Products Expo and shopped like a "SeeLai". I always laughed at people who went for a bit of promotion and stock up food at home - see, "I have today too" ("I deserve that" - 我都有今日喇~!)

See what I've bought - noodles, ready to cook soup packs, eggs rolls, chili sauce ... those are all I won't consume everyday but now, I have a lot at home. What for? I don't know. All I know I'm a good goolie and I listen to my master - my "old bean" ("老豆" - father)... He is the one who ordered me to go there ...

Goolie is good enough ...
