The early bird gets the worm !

I'm at work already, at 6.30am! Ok, I'm guilty as charged as I am stealing a few minutes to write some words. Work is piling high, and I am so freaked out preparing for October. Sigh. I'm wondering if it's still possible to have a break on my birthday ! (hm.. planning, planning)

It's gonna be a long day, with training at 5 - 6pm, and a long meeting at 6pm. I wonder if I could still catch Going the Distance tonight? Ah, wishful thinking of mine. Been wanting to watch this movie ever since I saw the trailer back in... urmm June i think?

A little on the movie , lifted from RottenTomatoes.com

Erin's (Drew Barrymore) wry wit and unfiltered frankness charm newly single Garrett (Justin Long) over beer, bar trivia and breakfast the next morning. Their chemistry sparks a full-fledged summer fling, but neither expects it to last once Erin heads home to San Francisco and Garrett stays behind for his job in New York City. But when six weeks of romping through the city inadvertently become meaningful, neither is sure they want it to end. And while Garrett's friends Box (Jason Sudeikis) and Dan (Charlie Day) joke about his pre-flight calorie-cutting and his full-time relationship with his cell phone, they don't like losing their best drinking buddy to yet another rocky romance. At the same time, Erin's high-strung, overprotective married sister, Corinne (Christina Applegate), wants to keep Erin from heading down an all-too-familiar road. But despite the opposite coasts, the nay-saying friends and family, and a few unexpected temptations, the couple just might have found something like love, and with the help of a lot of texting, sexting and late-night phone calls, they might actually go the distance.--© Warner Bros



The story line stirs up my memory of the past.. and the moment I watched the trailer, I knew I must catch it! I wonder if it'll be too late as today is the last day of screening, am hoping to watch it tonight.. am hoping to watch it with you.

Love in Disguise

It is indeed the new movie directed by super hunk Wang Lee Hom. It was a really good watch, and us, sitting on the third row, had him big and clear in front of us ! I must say, his talents does not stop in singing and musical instruments, this movie was played pretty well compared to the last few that he did. Probably this character is a close shot to his real life routine.

In many ways, LOVE can be in disguise too, it is up to you to peel off the pieces and discover what lies beneath. Sometimes, people make harsh decisions in the name of love, deciding and following a route that is painful and miserable; only love could get you going thru that hardship.

The theme song of the movie " Ni Bu Zhi Dao De Shi" , translated into English, it's "Things that you don't know". I have been listening to this song for the past few days, am practically humming it every other minute. The lyrics evoked a lil hidden emotions in me, something that is put aside for some time, and never really dared to re-open. I did a google search for the lyrics today, found a version of pinyin and chinese words. Took me a while to read through and fully understand the meaning, but i could totally relate to it. I rmb listening to countless lovely songs dedicated to me, with each word, it carries heartfelt emotions. Maybe I could not express myself then, but I hold these songs closely to my heart. ( If only you know..) I suppose if I were to write a song now, I might write an opposite one to Lee Hom's, it'll be " If only you knew". Have not been this emotional for a while, it's scary to admit it, as I sometimes find myself almost turning into a cold-blooded creature. It's almost like I forgot how to love and care for someone. I forgot how it feels to curl up into a warm cuddle and whisper sweet words. I find myself lying in bed and longing for a warm hug before bedtime. If only virtual ones work as well. It's probably time for some sort of soul-searching, again.

Meanwhile, here's a lovely song for you..

被爱真的比爱一个人更幸福吗?

As I'm here sitting down at work on Saturday morning, feeling groggy from only 2 hours of sleep.. something came into my mind, and I went to look up the exact words to describe my thoughts.

Feelings..

This song came to my mind on this late Raya night..


Feelings
Nothing more than feelings,
Trying to forget my feelings of love

Teardrops,
Rolling down on, my face
Trying to forget my, feelings of love

Feelings,
For all my life I'll feel it
I’ll wish I've never met you, girl
You'll never come again

Feelings,
Wo-o-o feelings
Wo-o-o feelings
Again in my heart

Feelings,
Feelings like I've lost you
And feelings like I've never have you
Again in my heart.

Feelings,
For all my life I'll feel it
I wish I've never met you, girl
You'll never come again

Feelings,
Feelings like I've lost you
And feelings like I've never have you
Again in my life.

Feelings,
Wo-o-o feelings
Wo-o-o feelings
Again in my heart

Feelings,
Wo-o-o feelings
Wo-o-o feelings

KTM - ladies coach

It was just any other day when I was returning from work, as usual, I waited at the ladies only waiting area. Yes, the KTM does have a coach dedicated to females only. Yes, female is the word. But I suppose there are many still men out there who conveniently stroll in the ladies coach. It's either they can't read, or they are just bloody ignorant about the signboard.(You can't really miss it, as it's pink and all over the coach)
On this evening, as I enter the Ladies Coach, it being a peak hour, the train was pretty packed, and one man was spotted seated quietly at the corner. He obviously made no effort to leave the coach despite receiving stares from the women in train. And out of the blue, a Malay lady walked right up to him, and said
" Excuse me, this is a ladies coach, ladies only !"
The man stood up and walked toward the door leading to the other coach. Just when I thought the lady was going to take the seat, she did not. She strolled to the other end of the coach, as if she was inspecting every bit of the coach. At the next stop, a man entered the coach, again the lady came walking from the other end and shoo-ed him away. Honestly, I was very impressed with her courage and attitude to stand up for all-ladies policy. I think that is exactly that extra dash of courage that we all need, at the end of the day, it is up to us to voice out if we were uncomfortable with the male presence in the train.
3 cheers for the heroine of the day !
