Avid readers may recall my good buddy KF the muscleman whom we … erm … did one time publicly admire each other’s bodies (pretty much like what girls do to each other I guess?) and did our little not-what-you-think kind of home videos.  Cynthia granted me a last minute night visa so … Boys Night Out it was!

Yet another voted as top 10 films of 2007 by the critics, I have got to drag my Movie Review Squad to check out this Oscar nominated animation from France featuring an Iranian young girl living through the Iranian Revolution (the film itself is in English).  So much faith they have on me, I was kind [...]

I woke up this morning.  The sky was grayish, the air was cool.  Feeling a tad melancholy, I stared at my music collection like I do every working morning scanning for something appropriate for the day.  Since I have been so Juno-overdosed (first the movie, then the Oscar), I picked “Belle & Sebastian” – something [...]

Cynthia’s mother is leaving, my mother is arriving.  I think I need a holiday.

Alison Sudol, the songwriter singer and self-taught pianist of A Fine Frenzy, has a lot to go for.  She is young and beautiful and her indie music style is genuine, personal, and is indeed a breath of fresh air in today’s commercial music scene.  It is rare to find an artist who sounds as good [...]

I am not going to deprive you the pleasure in discovering what “jumpers” are or where they come from - though I doubt if you can find all the answers from watching the film alone.  It is rare to find a film that despite having so many flaws, it is still very entertaining to the core.  [...]

I was caught on camera smiling while reading a book at the Botanic Gardens last weekend.  How embarrassing!  I’ll get to that later.  Couple of months ago, I was also caught on camera as a school project - so I was told - while I was reading a book.  It was a lovely afternoon at [...]

I woke up, which ironically was exactly when I fell asleep in reality, and I was dressed in my dark executive suit, white shirt, with a pair of dark trousers.  Somehow, I knew today was supposed to be an important day.  There was this sense of anticipation as my front door open.  And I remembered.  Today [...]
