Finally watched Inception through the weekend with alvin and pork, it was as good as they say. Also watched Love in Disguise on Sunday capping off the week.
3rd week at work now, its been pretty okay. Lots of fun, scandals and "hugs" around the work place.
Sometimes, I ask myself if I'm getting tired of everything and just want time to stop so that I can catch a breather. I realised that life is as it is and it'll take time to get use to the kind of life I'm leading now. Maybe all I needed was a break. To what extent then ?
The good news is, the fun loving bunch at work reminds me of my time when I was their age, not that its really much of a difference but still ..
I'm still hoping for the pot of gold to be at the end of the rainbow. And perhaps a new direction for me to move forward.

Au Revoir Taipei
Finally had time to meet pork and black for a movie. While I was driving towards Cineleisure, we were deciding on The last Airbender or Inception. But as fate would have it, I made an impromptu decision to watch Au Revoir Taipei. And it was an awesome choice.
The movie was awesome !
Au Revoir Taipei to me is Taiwan's answer to Ethan Hawke's Before Sunrise, where everything happened in a night. Of course the difference being that they met in the book store a couple of times before and more comedy is thrown in making it an awesome movie.
Romantic comedy is a tricky genre to make a film about and I'm pretty demanding as I do enjoy romantic comedies. But the filmmaker Arvin Chen 陳駿霖 has combined humor and light-hearted characters with good character developement to produce this charming piece of work that'll put a smile on your face as you walk out of the theater.
Side track a little .. For the first time, Pork, black and I eached liked a different girl from the movie. That's pretty awesome. I liked the cute Amber Kuo 郭采潔, pork liked the police's frustrated wife Peggy Tseng 曾佩瑜 while the black liked the convenience store girl, Vera Yen.

Just resist the urge to take up lindy hop after watching this movie :D

Thoughts
One day at a time. One step at a time. Be clam, be collected. At the end of the day, the ROI isn't exactly awesome. Take it easy and have fun.

Holiday coming soon !
4 more days till holiday time ! No where far, but it's a break still. Awesomeness !
I've decided to let go of a much higher pay job to work at some place that pays much lesser but I'll be happier there.
I've been spending a little too much recently. Control Control Control.
Pork bought Burberry scarf for 1 grand yesterday. I chose it for him ! On top of that, I introduced Narciso Rodriguez to him which he bought too ! Keeping the tradition of high spending Sundays alive.

Life Changing Decision
It was a tough decision to make. I've decided that being happy is more important than all the money in the world. At least for now. I've gained back more than I've lost so far and hopefully it'll continue to be that way. I know for sure things will not be smooth sailing but I'll try my best to make the most out of it. A little sacrifice will hopefully propel me to greater heights in my career. I guess I just couldn't run away from it. Now to get things done :D Basha !
Finally watched finish Liar Game Season 2. It was awesome. I also watched the entire Your Hand in Mine, the 180 episode local telly show. Trying to do some show-catching this week.

Songs and random nothings
Work, eat, sleep, work, eat, sleep, work, eat, sleep. The cycle continues. Its pretty boring, but after working 8 years of part time jobs, an 8 hour workday is pretty much nothing to me. Meeting clients, driving around and helping out in the factory is my life now. Its boring, but it pays the bills.
I don't have inspiration to blog about anything now, but I'm gonna put on a couple of songs that I've been listening to almost everyday.
McFly - All about you
This song was in my mp3 vault, until recently Hannah posted the video on Facebook did I realised how much I loved this song from before.
Tokyo Girls' Style - Kirari
This song is by this new Japanese group formed by Avex Trax this year. 東京女子流 / キラリ☆ Their debut single, which means "shining", is an awesome song. Like T-ara's Time to Love and Mario and Nesty's Never say goodbye, the first time I heard this song by Tokyo Girls' Style, I fell in love with it instantly ! They're all 12-14 years old and look at their moves ! Awesomeness !

I found this picture super sweet and thought I might share it.
Till then ..

Weekend awesomeness
What an awesome week it has been. I did go for basketball at my place, but it seems Friday's the day when no one is interested in playing basketball. Went home after 90 minutes of shooting around. I was prepared to stay at home when pork rang to ask me out for some pool. We did, and perhaps due to the world cup opener, we had a table almost immediately. Pool went fine and it was back home after.
Come saturday, slept till 11am coz it was freaking hot. Picked pork up at 3+pm and drove him down to Ubi to collect his shirts. In the end, we stayed there for 2 and a half hours coz his shirts wern't ready. Of the 2 and a half hours, 1 hour was spent waiting at a nearby coffeeshop and the other 1 and a half hours I was freaking alone in the car and was close to killing myself. Asshole tailor. Anyway, picked Siqin up a little late and we reached Plaza Sing at around 6pm for dinner.
We started our L4D session and we played all 5 maps in versus mode. That took about 5 hours of lan gaming and many breaks in between.
Something funny happened to Alvin though, Some malay dudes came in and thought Alvin was their friend and told him "Eh Ah bang, join this game leh". WAHAHAHAHA ! proves our point that Alvin's pretty much an escapee from the malay community.
Siqin, Alvin, pork and I had supper at Xin Wang Koven, while kangwei and tiongyuan went home. This is when the madness started. We spent 2 hours talking about building our own city and running it. With slaves and stones and an awesome hierarchy of dominance in the new society we create. It brought back memories for the nostalgic days of secondary school.
Sunday came, routine sunday, went out with pork again to look for bags, ended up buying none. But to cap off the awesome weekend, we caught the movie "A-Team" which was AWESOME ! Everyone should go watch it.
In a few hours I'll be starting work. Time to sleep. And good luck to me. Jia You Lianshen !
