Drama

Saturday is supposed to be drama free, but up until now I have ran after someone without my shoes on, drive dangerously on the road, and sweep a large yard full of rubbish. My Saturday is full of drama and I am too tired to go into details right now.
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

I have come to the conclusion that I must be a workoholic right now. I have spent this whole week working on filling in gaps for my experiment and completing the introduction of my thesis. I am right on track now. I am doing too much so my workmate can't use the equipment! I must remember there are other people in the lab as well and share with them. That's the way it goes.
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

The university international students put up "Operation New Orleans" today, selling food and accessories to help the victims in Cyclone Katrina. We are also treated with two hours of Jazz and blue music. I love Jazz! They played my favourite song.
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.

Search for the missing gift

I have spent whole working day trying to prepare for the meeting in the afternoon. It is not all for nothing, though. I have generated a preliminary graph for all my bacteria results. It is indeed a great achievement this early in the year.
I have spent whole evening searching for the missing gift to bring to Fuzzy. Fuzzy has been living in the hospital since Wednesday and today I shall visit her.
We went to Chartwell Square because it closes late on Thursday evening. There are so many people shopping! We went to Farmers, Sussans, Whitcoulls, toy shops, gift shops, and Klien the jewellery shop. Mum and I finally decided on buying a blue bull doll from Farmers for Fuzzy. It is so soft and so cute! I really like it. It is not practical (unlike bag and umbrella), but it is good for cuddling. I will hunt for a large card for people who visits to sign as well. Hope Fuzzy get better soon!
I will go home around lunchtime to pick fresh flowers and eat at home. Bring the dairy I gave her and a pen so she can write.
Tomorrow is the Moon Festival. Friend texted to say that she wants to go and visit Fuzzy on Sunday. I will go again with her? I don't know, will talk to her on the phone later.

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.

I love this film even though it looks so ridiculous. I love this film even though the girls all look ordinary and realistic. I love the dumb girl. Recommend you to go to the theatre and spend less money than before to watch this funny one when you have time. It is moving.
