Bling Bling Shoes

Finally!!!

Da-taaah - my wedding shoes: just the right fit and colour, plus the right amount of bling and height for me. Got it at Robinsons, at a 20% discount and with a 'lifetime warranty' for displaced Swarovski crystals and/or straps.

Yippeee. =)

Disappointment

'Love 50%' is such a let-down. Can't decide if it's the stagnated puppy look of the female lead that made me cringe or the try-too-hard storyline... but I know I did not enjoy tonight's screening. Haiz, what a disappointment considering last week's pleasant surprise. Next Sunday, the final instalment of this home-produced series... hopefully, it'd be worth the electricity bill the next time round.

Wrapping Up

And I'm starting to clear my leave. Just 2 official work days left to go, but of course I'd still be checking and clearing work mail and matters up to 31 Dec. Will also have to start packing up soon, so that the new officer can take over the desk.

Hmmm, my 2 yr posting has passed quite quickly. No doubt there had been a fair share of challenging and hair-pulling moments, but it has been a wonderul period overall. Some think that by making the move 2 yrs ago, I have taken a detour but I feel otherwise and have no regrets at all. Am truly thankful for the great exposure, my super colleagues and my understanding bosses. =)

Will be catching up with those who matter, as well as cooking a few more meals for Dad, before I fly. This blog will of course still be active.

Cheers

In the mood for some homegrown Love Stories

Did you managed to catch the feature film 'Love in a cab' that was just screened on Channel U, 9-11pm? Produced by an independent local film company, 18g Pictures Pte Ltd, it traces the evolution of relationship between a pair of star-crossed beings over 10yrs of tangles involving cabs. Given the less-than-sterling reputation that local dramas has garnered, I was initially a little tentative about how this feature film would turn out. Thankfully, the storyline was heartwarmingly local but not cliched, the acting was believable, the comic illustrations were superb and the outcome inspiring. There was a fair share of poignant moments when one is made to reflect upon the film's subtle messages of love, missed chances, fate, yearning, filial piety, pragmatism, dreams and even consumerism, and that makes it well worth 2hrs of weekend time for me. I look forward to the remaining two feature films - 'Love 50%' and 'Lost and Found' to come, again by local film producers, for the subsequent 2 Sundays at 9pm. Join me, if you too are in the mood for some homegrown love stories. :)
