A weekend of fun!

A weekend of fun!

This weekend started off with a bang! Haa... Saw 2 movies over the weekend. The first one is a romantic weepy Korean show, "Once in a summer". To me, Koreans romantic movies are the best, I always shed a tear or two whenever I watched one. The one that I shed most tears were "You are my sunshine" and "My sassy girlfriend". Jz classic romantic weepy movies! I loved it!


Anyway back to the movie, it is a heart-warming love story starring Lee Byung-hun who embarks on a quest to find out what happened to his first and only love (Su-Ae), who had mysteriously disappeared years ago. When still in college, Suk-young (Lee) then traveled with student volunteers to a remote village in the countryside in an attempt to escape the supervision of his strict father. He met the beautiful Jung-in (Su) there, and it was love at first sight. However, as the summer drew to a close, the couple faced a challenge to their willpower. Well the ending is sad, but then it was shot beautifully at country side and the whole movie was done so romantic, seeing how the guy go all out to chase after the girl. Haa... Go and watch it with someone special in your life. If not jz go with ur frens. Haa....


The second movie was the much acclaimed, oscar nominated movie, "Babel". The movie is set in the remote sands of the Moroccan desert, a rifle shot rings out - detonating a chain of events that will link an American tourist couple’s frantic struggle to survive, two Moroccan boys involved in an accidental crime, a nanny illegally crossing into Mexico with two American children and a Japanese teen rebel whose father is sought by the police in Tokyo.

The special thing about this movie is it started off with 4 different stories in 4 different countries and slowly in the movie, the link between the 4 stories surfaced. There are also a lot of meanings behind each story and when the stories are linked up. The usual things are like love, loneliness, hatred, etc.. Jz loved the movie! Great! Haa...

Other then watching movies, organised a potluck on Saturday night. It was fun! Thks for you all for attending the potluck. Thks Erica for the home made cheesecake and her flat! Thks the rest, Ben, HC, SP, Gina, LC for the wine and the food and entertaining my OSCAR! Haa... Fun talking and eating like that and cannot imagine we actually spend the whole night with no music and tv and yet does not feel boring at the same time. Haa... We can do this more often next time ok! Hee... Noticed that a lot of the dogs photos were taken and yet we forgot to take a grp pic! Sigh! Next time got to do it ok! OSCAR get to know a new fren named Effie. Haa... Poor thing! Got shaved looked kinda of cute now. Haa...

The rest of the weekend are pretty much the same, went gym on Sunday but this time to vivocity outlet, nice view of sentosa but pretty small place. The studio's air con is under maintenance so the whole workout was HOT HOT HOT! Sweating like a pig! Haa...

Yesterday rushed home to watch Project superstar. Well to say both are good and congrats to Darren who won it! Expected it anyway. Haa...

I am now tired, and still coughing. Haa.... I had been drinking tons and tons of water alr! When will the torture stop? Hmm... Did not touch my books at all over the weekend. Better start soon!
