Drama
Small achievement yesterday, though. I have written some funny stories on my Chinese blog site. Check them out if you have time.
I don't know what will happen later this day. Let the drama unfold.

The grand design
On a lighter note, I have been going to concerts and parties with my friend K. I am very happy. He is swamped by work as well. Four assignments! Teachers don't believe that we are humans, we are just machines that research, type, and roll out homework like a robot! Whew...I am glad that I am over undergrduate at this stage, but my thesis...it is still in tatters. It is still in my head. I am trying to make it better right now, hope I will succeed soon. I have to finish it! I have to complete everything early. Constant writing next few months.
The NaNoBlogMo is coming up as well. This year I am so ready to write a story that I can't wait for 1 October. I have that story in my mind that I want to type on my computer. I want to write it down with my pen. I want to create something that is beautiful and ugly at the same time. I want to leave something for my fellow humans to read and enjoy. I want to write a good story. That's not going to be easy, but since a lot of people are doing it, why don't I do it, too?

Jazz, guitar, blue, and New Orleans
I meet K in front of National Bank and we ate some food there. Met up with his music schoolmate and went to a guitar duo concert in Academy of Performing Arts. "Ephenstephen" is a great duo, I like espeically Penny Lane (The Beatles), and Spiral Ecllipse. Spiral had a passage full of emotion and love. Penny Lane is a cute little song.
Fuzzy is still very sick, but her doctor said that she will be able to come home today. !!!!!I don't know what to say!!!!! We have to try to take care of her somehow, but I don't really know how. We will see how it goes when she comes home.
The weather is getting better now. I hope it will hold until the weekend so I can mow the lawns. It is very unpredictable.

Kung Fu Hustle
Mum and I plan to have dinner then watch a movie in town to relax. We have been stressed and sad for a while at home and it’s good to get out to get some fresh air. The season is changing. Cherry trees are blossoming in Taitua Arboretum. Daffodils are shaking their bell heads in the warm wind under the trees. Cows are eating green grass under the blue sky. The sight is breathtaking.
We went to an Indian restaurant called Little India. The menu looks completely foreign to me, but I ordered Murg Mumtaz, also known as butter chicken, because I had eaten them before. It is half cooked the tandoori way and finished the curry way, with crushed cashews, cream and spices. Mum ordered Bhuna chicken, which is boneless spring chicken cooked with ginger, garlic, onions & spices. (These descriptions come from Little India menu.) We have both ordered mild because if it is medium it may be very spicy.
I really like the food that we had. Naan bread is made from Tandoor method and it is so delicious. The sky is grey and rain is falling down slowly as people walk pass us inside. The mood lighting certainly helps. Little India also does takeaway for dinner, but the thing is we want to avoid washing plates and rubbish afterwards, so we have really pampered ourselves last night.
Kung Fu Hustle is a comedy, a parody, and a film that pays respects to the old masters in martial arts movie and introduces new stars into the limelight. The editing is superb. You are treated with a visual extravaganza of impossible power and bravery. You come out feeling that you have just seen a cartoon, but it is so much more than that. In the alternative universe, you are presented with the gang members who rule the wealthy part of town, who control everything including the police, casino, and dancing clubs. The shot pulls quickly to the poorest part of town, a large building with people who earn honest money, who has to pay rent to a couple with superhuman ability. Yes, you guessed right, these two are Kung Fu masters in hiding and they protect the people in this building from the evil of gang members. The hero, our beloved Stephen Chow, is a beggar on the street who wants to join the gang. Thus start a series of fighting scene, with the highlight of the Music Assassins.
