Movie Date: Hachiko - A dog's story

I have heard of the tale of this dog before I knew there was a movie about it. Before playing the movie and watching it, I knew I was gonna cry. It is a story about a professor who found an abandoned dog on a train platform and the bond they have. He died one day and the dog keeps coming to the train station to wait for him, for 10 years.

Seriously...I cried. OMG it is so sad. =___=




I wish my cats would wait for me when I get home. Although they do wait for me because the want food. I think there's something about Richard Gere in this movie that makes it so...believable and sad. In Japan, they erected a bronze statue at the train station (I can't remember where now. Edit: It's at Shibuya Station and every April the people hold a special celebration in honor of the Akita) at the place he use to sit and wait.

I think the part when I knew he was going to die is the saddest. Have you watch this movie?

The last day of Horror-ween

So October  Pinktober have come and gone. It is sad really. Also some happy times through out this month. :) And I have been a lazy blogger. I just felt so deflated I needed some recharge time!! I hope I have recharged enough and my camera ran out of memory. I told it to take it easy and walked, but it RAN! LOL So I, who is a lazy bumm, will have to remove and delete all pictures in the hope that I will post them here. :P I will...sooner or later. Sooner is what you should hope for.

Before I move on to November, I want to wish everyone a HAPPY HORRORWEEN!! I saw in the news that the east coast of US was snowing. SNOWING! on Halloween?? what they call a 'rare' snowstorm? So I guess for all you folks out there who wanted to dress as Santa or Mrs Clause this would probably be the appropriate time. :P Now who says you can never be Santa on Halloween? Maybe creepy Santa >:D

I do hope everyone who was hit by this white Halloween is safe and staying warm :). I shall be back with the next post.

Project 365: #152 The Missing and FALL

Hey there peeps. I have been away for too long and promise that I will make up for it. :) As you know my cat went missing 2 weeks ago. I'm sad to report that there is no good news. On the other hand, this morning I saw Kick (Jumper's mom) playing with a little mouse. I am sad to say that it did not make it but they had their moment staring at each other. It was funny, too bad I didn't have my camera with me to take some awesome video. Well I will leave you with a picture of something random I am sure. Oh better yet, fall :D at CLK's house. Beautiful I might add. Damn I wish I was there. Fall is my second favorite season next to winter. :D Yes I love winter!!! XD

Movie Date: What I am looking forward to

I have been trying to occupy myself with other things that worry about Jumper. I have been searching for some upcoming movies and trailers. Some are pretty awesome but I don't know if I will get disappointed. Trailers can be pretty deceiving, which is why I try not to watch them. Sometimes I admit I watch movies because of the starting line up. Or if Leonardo Dicaprio or Johnny Depp is in them XD. Who doesn't like Leo and Johnny? Or shall I say Captain Sparrow :P

Some of the movies I hope does not disappoint am looking forward to watch:



Tower Heist (Nov 4)

The line up is pretty awesome. Ben Stiller is one pretty funny dude if he don't try too hard, Casey Affleck also acts in this, Matthew Broderick, Eddie Murphy (I love him as donkey and that zebra in Madagascar :P), Tea Leoni and Gabourey Sidibe to name a few. I am hoping this is gonna be good. The trailer is pretty hilarious though. I love the part where Matthew Broderick character says 'I'm gonna be a male whore' (I think that's what he said :P).




Puss in Boots


Just plain and simple - who doesn't love puss in boots? :D




Three Musketeers (Oct 2011)

I love anything related to the Three musketeers, movie wise. My all time favorite movies are The man in the iron mask (1998 which Leonardo DiCaprio acted in - of course!) and the 1993 film The three musketeers - with the cast of Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Chris O'Donnell, Oliver Platt and Tim Curry (can't believe Charlie Sheen is in this one, didn't know until I wiki it haha). I think that movie was my number one favorite until I got my hands on The man in the iron mask. I am hoping this newer version does not disappoint me because they can change the whole plot of the story but they can't change the three musketeers. Definitely looking forward to this one.




John Carter (2012)

I don't know why but this movie reminds me of Prince of Persia and I still haven't watched that movie yet. I want to so bad now.




The Hobbit (2012)


If you were crazy about LOTR then you do not want to miss this. One more movie to put on my list. I can't wait to see this and to see Peter Jackson's magic.




The Avengers (2012)


I could not find the official trailer but I am beginning to love this one. I have not seen Thor yet (I'm just so caught up with things). Thor, come to mama!

Transformer 4: Rise of Galvatron (2012)


Apparently there is the 4th installment of this movie. I hope this one is much more better than the last. I heard Michael Bay might not direct this one. We will see.



The Sleeping Beauty (2011)


This movie looks so wrong yet so intriguing. I don't think they will play this at the cinema but I am sure gonna find out a way to watch this.

Last but not least...




Underworld: Awakening (Jan 2012)

I have waited a long time for the next Underworld movie and it has come. I have seen the trailer and psyched myself before watching it. I don't know if I like the trailer. I might have to watch all 3 movies again, starting with the 3rd, 1st and 2nd. I didn't like the 2nd one so much but I might be wrong.


Other movies that might interest you:
Battleship
The Lost Symbols
Ice Age 4

Is there any movies you are looking forward to?

MISSING

My Jumper is missing. :( I am very sad. He's been gone for 2 whole days. He wasn't feeling very well and my sister was suppose to take him to the vet but he was gone.

I miss him. Jumper come back. I hope you are still alive and well.

I am...

...currently sitting in the dark, well semi darkness. I have my nifty little Japanese house shaped lamp providing the only source of light in my dark room. The light fixture in my room needs replacing...the bulb I mean. This main one has been going crazy for the past few days. If I turn on the switch and let is sit a lil longer, it might and I say might just turn on. =____='' I need to replace the bulb but I am way too short to change them even with the little ladder. I should've just let CLK replace them for me when he was around. See now that's one good use of tall men and why I love taller men, taller than me anyway :D. Or at least have to be more than 5'6".HAHAHA...

Anyway, this sitting in the dark business isn't helping my already clouded eyesight O_o, me looking like a panda or 4-eye I should say. This will probably make my glare (eye glare?? or whatever you call it) soaring to the roof! This call for another appointment to the eye doctor. FML. And I am really worried about Jumper (who was in my previous blog post). He won't eat, he growls at me (and he never does! he is the sweetest) and he won't let me hold him. :( I am going to have to take him to the vet tomorrow. *sigh*

I am feeling slightly disturbed too. So much for some girls night tonight.

Project 365: #151 Insecure brat

He loves to torment my other kids when he is not tormenting others he likes to sleep, on top of stuff.

He is just so adorable!! How many cats do you know have stripes and spots, with socks?!?!! :D

Pink today anyone?

The coming of a new year

Ello there mate. So yesterday was my birthday (hooray)...we or I didn't do anything special or grand if you are wondering. I just had some nice quiet me time with CLK and talked on skype (not that I can haul him anywhere...) and spent time with my babies. It was alright and........... we made pizza :D. It feels like every year we have pizza on my birthday :P. Not that I'm complaining. I love pizza! I will show you a delish pizza picture ...just because I love you guys.

Hahaha... =___='' and my mom gave me a pink hand bag. Well what do you know, it seems to fit in my go-pink theme for the month of October, but I don't really wear pink very much. I am not a big pink fan - although this one is more of a dark salmon color, deep pink I guess not those striking pink you can see from 10000 miles away. :) I will have to take a pic and show you guys.

And today is actually CLK's birthday. :D Happy birthday baby! (not that he reads my blog but it's the thought that counts :P). I thank you for being in my life and made me realize I can be a much better person inside out and for loving me for ME :D It was a huge thing to find out that our birthday was just hours apart. Since I always envy my parents (their birthdays falls on the 12th and 13th of November) for having birthdays so close together, I feel so special now. *insert cheesy comments or gagging sounds* Haha...so October is a huge birthday month for me (so is September and November...eh seems like every month after August) because all or most I should say of my friends, people I come to know recently and favorite celebrities birthdays falls in October. :D Aren't we all a special bunch? ;)

So anyone who is celebrating their birthday this month, I want to wish a very happy birthday and wonderful year ahead. May your year bring prosperity and joy and happiness. And we share breast cancer awareness month! Oh yeah~

This cake because I am slightly obsessed and I want this for at least one of my birthday :P

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE ♥♥♥

Project 365: #150 Brunch with my brother

I honestly have to say I sometimes despise my brother. He is 12 years younger than I am. Sometimes he gets quirky and nice to me which is weird. And sometimes I just love hanging out with him, and because he needs me he oblige. One of those favorite time is when we are out, eating.

I think because he is a guy (and growing - taller than me, whaaat?) he eats a lot. :P

Are you wearing pink today?

Project 365: #149 Deep blue sea

One thing that gets me excited when I go to the pet store to get my cats kids stuff they need, is the shark, Bruce, Dory, and Nemo. :D

^^, aren't they beautiful?

I love this movie!!!

Are you wearing pink today?

Project 365: #148 Butterscotch bread

Have you ever had butterscotch bread? Have you ever had butterscotch bread with butter? You should because if you haven't you are missing some awesome combo here :D Too bad they don't sell this bread where  I live. My parent bought them at the airport on their way home.

Are you wearing pink today? :D

Project 365: #147 Pau

Ermmm...I don't really know what you call this. But here we call it pau (po maybe??). Anywho, it is a puff thingy filled with yummy-some goodies inside ie. this one is filled with red bean paste. :D My favorite! Some other fillings would typically be coconut, nuts, butter, chicken curry, and green bean paste.

**Sorry for the awful quality, took them with my phone :)


Edit: Oh now I just realized these are dumplings XDD
Are you wearing pink today?

October is breast cancer awareness month!

And I am happy to share it with my birthday month. Yay for October! I am an October baby. This month I will try to wear something pink everyday. Which is kinda hard since I don't a whole lot of pink in my wardrobe. I need to find a pink ribbon soon. :) My immediate family have never been diagnosed with breast cancer but my aunt in my extended family passed away due to breast cancer. I have friends that had lumps removed from their breasts but fortunately they were non-cancerous.

I hope all you beautiful ladies out there gets your breast check out everyday if possible, by you or your doctor and get you mammogram done. You can even let your boyfriend/husband do the breast exam ;) *wink wink*. Spread the cause and stay beautiful.

I want to share this funny commercial with you. :D Never gets old.

Movie Date: Abduction

2 days ago my cousin and I decided to go watch a movie on a whim. Since no one else wanted to go with (it was a working and school night) we decided to watch the 1045pm show. Out of all the movies (which was not many available that night) we decided to watch Abduction. I was drawn to it because of Taylor Lautner (admitting now). After watching the movie, I seriously wished I chose Dream House instead. At least it will keep me shivering until we reach home (which was almost 1am).

It was very disappointing, and kinda sad. Wish the movie had more awesomeness to it. I can't decide whether the movie was going too slow or too fast, probably both and the ending was kind of a let down. One the good side, I get to spend time with my cousin (whom I rarely see) and took tons of pictures with the Johnny English movie poster. :P Will probably do a separate post on that.
