Jump into the Blind Side

My blogging rate has dropped significantly. For one reason or another.
Though I often have much to say.. but seldom have the mood to sit down and put it down.

The last two movies I watched was Blind Side and Jump.

Blind Side is a feel-good story of Big Mike, supposedly one of the greatest left backs in NFL. Though the emphasis of the story is pretty much in Sandra Bullock's character, rather than Big Mike himself. Still.. the story gives good lasting impression as it ended with montages of the characters in real life.

Jump.. well.. is not really a dance flick. It's a Chow-flick. It has Stephen Chow's taste of joke stamped all over it. Not a bad thing for someone like me who loves Chinese movies. I didn't expect great dance moves or anything.. though I expected Kungfu Hustle's level of stupidity. So I was little bit disappointed to find that the movie is not as stupid. But still.. pretty funny at times and for the girls.. I suppose they are more than happy to watch the handsome casts.

The last thing I had on my mind was our Toa Payoh North's chicken rice stall.
It is famous. It has queues most of the time. And yet if you ask me..
it is slightly less than average in taste. Anita's mum even claimed that it was horrible.

I dunno why all these people keep on coming to this stall while there is Wee Nam Kee two MRT down the line. I dunno why the stall owner sometimes act like some big shots while their chickens are obviously overrated.
But do you think they care?

Societies do not really care to ask the fundamental questions in life.
Everything is well as long as everyone get along.
You are a good person as long as you are of use and of help to someone else.

Father

I am reading the book "Wild at Heart". One of the most striking points that the author made was that of how many, if not almost all, men are most severely wounded by their own father. You would have thought that your dad will be the one who believes in you when everyone else is doubting you. You expect him to do so. Coz when he does, you know that it ain't matter even if the rest are against you. So when it turns out that he is siding with those who doubt you. It hurts the most. It kills off your hope. It strips you off your courage and belief to be a real man. Because the man who is suppose to show you how to be a real man, the one whose approval matters the most.. does not side with you. He loves you.. yes. But a father's role is not simply to love and nurture. He is more than just that. He is your assurance, stronghold, strength. He leads you into adventure, he fights with you side by side, he shows you how to rescue a beauty. When your father of flesh and blood ca...

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me....
