Life Without Principle (2011)

Life Without Principle (2001)

Dir : Johnnie To 杜琪峰

Cast : 刘青云 何韵诗 卢海鹏 苏杏璇 任贤齐

One of the few recent Chinese/Cantonese piece that's captivating. And being a Johnnie's work, I am happy to see some tone-down on typical police plot. The other pulling factor for me is the fact that 苏杏璇 is back acting and won the Best Supporting Actress in 2012 HK Film Awards (though it's more like consolation prize for her). Both 何韵诗 and 卢海鹏 surprised me in a way.

Bravo for Sean Lau as usual!

Damn Funny

Like Patrick said, it's damn funny! I can't resist but repost it here.

Saya Mau Main....

I was chatting with my best friend that day about Malaysian politics and some funny stories about politicians and sportsmen and I read this in Patrick's blog.

Just like Patrick's blog name, NIAMAH!!!!!!!

Web Therapy (2011)

You can always depend on Showtime to come up with some provocative and interesting shows and Lisa Kudrow to provide some laugh. I like her since her Friends days as I can't really get Rachel and Monica. Kudrow teamed up with Don Roos, the director who worked with her in both The Opposite of Sex and Happy Ending in this interesting new show, Web Therapy. And Kudrow is one of the writers too!

Now I have other option besides The Big Bang Theory to provide some laugh.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

3M, General Assembly and whatnot

In airport for a few hours transit to go back to the little dot. The rubbish uttered by the 3M combo plus the "it has nothing to do with me" SJ gung-ho self defense sync-in harmoniuosly with the delegate's childish display of stupidity. All I can say is that, no-hope already.

Sigh~~~

My Dear Sister, I Am Proud Of You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Malaysia Day

When Enough is Enough : Get Counted!

Get counted and vote for our next generation

Thanks to Leiw Seng Tat and the 709 generation.

Holiday Post

1. Holidays are over-rated, especially if you need to work on them.
2. History distortion will be accepted as historical fact when it's being repeated enough and shoved down your throat since young. What's the meaning of celebrating a National Day when the day itself served no meaning as it's being shoved down our throat and left with no choice but accept it?
3. Nation building is a long process and rebuilding takes at least 2-3 generations. This saddens me.
4. Overstretching yourself can only be done to a certain limit and once the limit is reached, be careful as it will produce some detrimental irreversible effect, physically and mentally. I will keep reminding myself that.
5. To my friends and family, enjoy the holidays!!!!
6. September.... my holiday is coming soon!!!!!

When It's Time to Let Go.....

This is definitely not the case of "habis manis, sepah dibuang".

When it's time to go, it's time to go.

Rais' another thesis in making?????

I seriously suggest he surveyed how much "you help me, i help you" goodies were distributed during GE and by-elections all this year but again, a masquerading academic (who tainted his PhD - an insult to all PhD holders) like him won't think right or speak right. With caricatures like him and his even more embarrassing predecessor Zainuddin, I would like to say Mohammad Rahmat was a saner UMNO minister.

I Do Not Know How To Feel After Watching This....

HELP! - Oliver Burkeman

The smaller caption of the title says :

How to Become Slightly Happier and Get a Bit More Done

Before I decide to borrow the book from library, I flipped through introduction to help me to make the decision. It managed to get me by these :

Besides, as a rational, non-guillible sort of person, I was allergic to the cheesy premises of self help gurus.

But I should be honest : if I was half-joking, I was also half-serious. Deep down, however much we cover it up with cynicsm and wisecracks, isn't everybody at least half-serious about wanting to be happy?

That brings me to the name of my blog. :)
