Iron Man 2

Iron Man 2
Seriously this is so not interesting that I couldn't be bothered to blog about it until now. Iron Man 1 was okay, somewhat interesting as it builds up the story. Iron Man 2 is pure boredom. Very little substance in the story. Maybe they try to impress with some nice graphics and all, but that's about it. How unfortunate cos' now everyone will remember it for being bad. Stay tune for the closing credits. According to Kh, it is a trailer for the Thor Hammer movie.

POPULARITY =/= number of friends on Facebook

SUCCESS =/= how much you earn, what kind of education you have, what kind of job you have, what kind of car you drive... blah blah

WEALTH =/= how much your parents earn


People should stop being so shallow and wake up your idea.

Live life simply. Appreciate the little things in life. The world is too beautiful to get caught up in this damn rat race.

Happy 7th Anniversary!

7 years. Wow time really flies.

This year, we wanna keep things simple. Less focus on the cost of the celebration, more focus on the quality of the celebration. What better than a nice picnic by the beach? =)

Lunch (prepared by me):
Shrimp Cocktail
Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup
Smoked Salmon Sandwich w/ Foccacia Bread
Domremy Sparkling Grape Juice

Actually I was gonna bake carrot cake w/ cream cheese for dessert but my house is currently under renovation and the oven is being kept away. zz.

Found a lovely spot where we could have our nice picnic... =)

Kh surprised me with a new Benro C-0691EX Carbon Fibre TravelAngel tripod. This is even more expensive than the one on my wishlist ($370) as it is from the TravelAngel series. Only 600grams and it is as solid as a rock! I can't believe how compact and light it is. So compact that I didn't even know that Kh had a tripod in his bag! It was a wonderful surprise. Thanks dear! =D 

This tripod can also be detached on one side to become a monopod. =)

Coincidentally, we watched Iron Man in Gold Class on our 5th Anniversary.

Copywriting... I don't have an ounce of creative juice in me. Bring me some balance sheets, let me do some statistics or risk analyst, whatever. But man, this is tough.

Ip Man 2

Ip Man 2
Woot! Love this movie to bits despite the highly predictable storyline. Ip Man's class act, sheer modesty and witty remarks make him the no. 1 kungfu master to look out for. I like what they call "a volley of punches". Lol. Donnie Yen's punches are so fast that his hands are a blur. He's so incredibly talented. He always has this serious face on, like he's trying to act like everything is okay but it's not, and he's feeling sad but doesn't want to show it. When you see that face you just feel so sad for him. And when he laughs you KNOW he's really happy. And then you'll feel happy for him too. I know I've said this before, but I'll say this again. WHY wasn't this guy discovered earlier? This is truly one of the best kungfu movie ever filmed. Way to go Ip Man!
