I’m still here. I’ve lots to blog about but I can’t seem to sit down and start writing.
Maybe tomorrow.

I cried so much my eyes are puffy.
URGH.
No. I’m not in a middle of a breakup. No. No one I know died. No. My imaginary goldfish is not dead.
Yes. Silly me cried my heart out for a sappy movie.
URGH.
Note: I am not turning SbR into a movie review blog. Will talk about the movie later.
“Sweet and easygoing Eun Ho grew up in a normal middle-class household with a strict and traditional father. Willful plastic surgeon Ki Baek was born into a wealthy family, and has the ego to match his income. Their two worlds collide quite literally when they meet through a paragliding accident. It’s a classic case of opposites attract as they fight, falter, and fall in love, but their incompatible families are determined to break them apart.”
- Synopsis extracted from Wiki
This film bears certain similarities to girls-gone-crazy-drama Boys over Flower except in this show, the guy is much nicer and there were less heartaches and more funny moments.
It was hilarious, sweet, gorgeous, charming, and oh his smile. Right. I’m still talking about the show and not the lead actor – Ha Seok-jin – who is coincidently equally hilarious, sweet, gorgeous, charming and oh his smile.
Right. About the show. You will love this film if you are into Korean dramas minus the wait and suspense in a typical TV series. This is after all a 115 min film. Released in 2007, this film was also adapted into a TV series.
I love shows with a happy ending!
A dollar well spent! I’m a happy girl!
Backed from work!
I saw my sister making silly stuff for someone special. This reminded me of something. I’m in deep trouble! His birthday is in 2 weeks time! HELP!
I have a thing for Polaroids and Lomo Camera. I love the vintage and random effects created and the many surprises you get after developing the film.

Ohh. I love the sound of film. Who on earth still uses the sexy-sounding films these days with the existence of practical and tech-ky sounding SD cards, thumbdrives and digital file transfers?!
BOO. The saddest part? I’ve got a equally practical and tech-loving man who believes in photoshop. HMPH.
Are there any kind souls out there who is willing to thrill me with one of these during Christmas!?

Note: Filmsnap, now you know that I’m kind of interested in lomo cams but with my depleting bank account and a mission to conquer the world, I doubt I would have any excess cash left for a pretty lomo cam. Gosh. I’m such a deprived little girl. Maybe you can be the kind soul mentioned above and I’ll write a free advertorial in return! HAH.
Home. 4pm.
Work. 10 pm.
HAH.
I love how unpredictable my job is.
I bought two movies (DVD & VCD) from a bazaar sale at a mall this afternoon. They were clearing their old rental movies and I got them at $1 – $2.50 each! HAH. Being a movie junkie and an individual who detests the idea of watching movie uncomfortably over laptop, I am a happy girl with my cheap finds.
There’s only one reason why I picked these two titles (Unstoppable Marriage and American Dream) out from a mountain of old random films. Cute guys. You can’t go wrong with eye candies. HAH. I love Hugh Grant, he is so charming and the cute Korean guy on the cover totally stand out from the other movie titles with floppy-hair-male-leads from the 90s.
I ran 21 and walked 19 (units of measurements)! Aren’t you proud of me!
I didn’t know who Julia Child or Julie Powell was before this movie. They aren’t exactly popular in this part of the world. But I love blogging and I love food.
In the film, Julie finds comfort in cooking and while searching for something to focus her mind on, she decides to cook and blog her way through all 524 recipes in Julia Child’s “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” in 365 days. Linking two separate stories told by two different books over different eras but circling the same subject and theme, Julie & Julia is born.
Despite wondering ever so often if anyone other than her mum reads her blog (P.S: Hello! Anyone out there reading SbR?), Julie completed the mission she set for herself. That is quite a feat!
I won’t exactly say I adore this film but it left a nice tingling feeling. Julie Powell’s blog featured in the movie can be found here. You can also read her current blog here.
Note: Isn’t it amazing how the Internet is like the world’s mega brain, capturing past happenings / forgotten blogs? I once randomly found my first blog address and I must say, I was rather embarrassed with my juvenile writing style. It is unlikely that I will feature it here unless SbR ran out of interesting topics and had to resort to such self deprecating methods. HAH
I love picking up stuffs from Borders! Now, would you please excuse me, while I go keep myself busy with these finds?
