TV addict

After American horror story coven and brother's keeper 巨轮,I wonder what to watch next.

Soon I found it...
Hkg: 法外风云 Will Power.
Jap: S 最后的警官
US:looking
Korean: 来自星星的你

4 series... But least S and "looking" are ongoing weekly series... Can watch once a week.. And looking only half an hour.

And yes they all good and enticing. :)

A simple life

Yes since I insisted on watching it in Cantonese, I only got to watch last night.

And I've no regret of waiting.. Unlike costume drama, there are so much local Cantonese and witty words that simply can't be translated.

But more important, deanie ip really puts on a fantastic show as an elderly with so much 'old thinking' which I could still spot from my mom, or my aunt, or people at that age. Those tough, resilient, thrifty, don't want to cause trouble or disturb others yet actually yearning for care and attention - just not comfortable to show.. Also, good at cooking, fussy about house chores, like to keeps old things (many hidden treasure)... etc etc.. which can strike a chord in me, and maybe my brother.

Now I know why my brother wanted to bring my mother for a holiday after watching the movie.

I feel ESP related to a scene when roger (Andy lau) brought taojie to see a dentist, where taojie refused to get a denture because it's costly. When roger insists, taojie shows tantrum and wanted to leave.. Roger just could not hold it and retorted for the first time.. why u so pissed? It's for your good...

And it also reminds me years ago when I was quite pissed by my dad, as I wanted to bring him for an assessment and get a hearing aid.. He firstly agreed but later changed his mind when he heard about the cost... to much of my frustration.

Really love this movie. Deserves all awards.

This Little Thing Called Love

Thai comedy could be so de-stressing and therapeutic.. and not just "Fabulous 30".

Dunno if this movie shown in Singapore already... Or it's shown but i missed it.. It's a 2010 production and i happened to find it online..




A bittersweet movie of a puppy love in school... about how an ugly betty turns pretty to attract the boy's attention and love.. and yet...... can make u laugh and cry.... ♥ it...

La Masion Fatien

Upon sunday time review, went to try this new French bistro at duxton...

Surprise. Food is reasonably priced, and portion just nice.. Not too much nor too little. More importantly it's simple yet tasty. The manager said their food are simple homecook French food, and the chef is actually a local who used to work in restaurant like Les Amis. And the food din fail us...

Apetitzer. No i din take the fois gras (in front, refused) but the escargots and the salad are nice..

The sirloin steak. Love the sauce..

Also like my friend's roasted pork..

But the best seems to be this stewed duck.. It's so tender and tasty and simply melt in your mouth... Lovely!!!!

The desserts are Profiterios and creme brûlée... But I love the creme brûlée, very smooth and not too sweet..


The staffs friendly and nice (one boy quite cute), though at time seems too friendly that kept asking you if you liked the food... But think still better than bo chap ones.. And the ambience is nice... I surely would come back again..

爱上你

During Taipei trip recently, ironically i totally missed out Selina's 世紀婚礼,(too much pride.. pun intended.... ;p).

It was until before leaving Taipei at the airport, i caught glimpses of their wedding shots on TV. I was most surprised to see the reunion of S.H.E (!!) sang this on stage....




That was a very touching moment.. esp knowing what they had gone through... and at that flash of moment, much memories floated in my head...about S.H.E, about Selina, about me myself, about my friends... the time that had passed, the up and down...the scars gained, the innocence lost. 

Nevertheless.. Life goes on.. Dedicated this song to all 天下有情人,不管你已经爱过,在恋爱中,还是仍在等待爱。。祝你会有幸福的一天!

my new film blog is born!!!!

Finally.... My new fillm blog. 我的戏言室 is born, under username tvm2011

In fact, i started it some days ago just to try. out...... and i think it's kind of fun to focus your passion and interest in a journal. I regret i din start it much earlier.

So this LJ swimz will continue to be more about my personal life, thoughts and feeling,  the other "sister-blog" is more for movies.

I'll start adding some of you who seem still active on LJ. So you can add me back if you wish.

For those i din add but actually still alive on LJ, yes, do add tvm2011 too.. (Suddenly like back to old LJ time..). 

The journal meanwhile (soft launch? :p) will be public, and I intend it to remain it as public and so content should be just PG so my straight friends could access too.Those R-21 or gay movies i'll restrict to friends only.

Hope u enjoy reading and yes, comment feedback are welcome.. :)

My new movie blog?

I'm contemplating to start a new blog on movies.. or rather the review or comment on movie that I watched, or i wanna see..

This has been my thought for long time.. And easier for me to keep track or record.

Considering if I should do it on LJ or any other blog website. Any comment?

(Afternote: some of you feedback say do it on LJ.. 

sure.. at least it's a territory that i'm familiar with.. and many of my friends are here.. although nowadays really, really like lesser people active on LJ, and like always the same few people..

Anyway, now is to think of the name of the new LJ movie blog.. hmm.. )
