ending of week no.11

lers mood for the week:moderate self-control freak !!!! I believe i'm trying too hard to hold my emotions;i'm utterly losing myself in the dark...the numerous night of loneliness and soul-healing was never in my life that i would expect it to happen...What should i do next?? I'm contrasting myself within my own world,the question is,would i allow anyone to enter the world of mine??

lers-record of the week:YAEL NAIM-YAEL NAIM self-titled album:You may have already heard this French-born,Israeli-bred singer-songwriter in the commercial for Mac's new ultrathin air notebook,where her delightful ditty"New Soul" provides appropriately light and breezy accompaniment.(In a nice bit of synergy,the single has already hit No.1 on the iTunes chart) Naim displays more of that gentle,nimble touch on the rest of her exotic U.S.debut,whether she's singing in English or Hebrew,or channeling Joni Mitchell or Sarah McLachlan.

highly recommend:"Toxic"-her intoxicating,torched-up take on the Britney Spears hit

lers-movie of the week:KITE RUNNER-An emotional tale of friendship,family,devastating mistakes and redeeming love by Golden Globe nominated director Marc Foster,The Kite Runner is based the novel by Khaled Hosseini. It reveals Foster's love for films with complex emotional relationships similar to Finding Neverland and Stranger Than Fiction.But this time he portrays a mix of international actors giving justice to the story of Amir,a wealthy boy from Kabul in a divided country on the verge of war,who on a joyous day of flying kites is separated from his childhood friend,Hassan. Amir,living with the guilt of betraying his best friend,eventually departs to live in the U.S. Two decades later,he returns to rectify his mistake in Afghanistan,only to find out the crumbling Afghan monarchy and horrifyingly strict Taliban regime.

Kite Runner has been out for quite sometime,but is never too late to recommend good movie!

lers-classic movie of all time:FORREST GUMP(1994),starring Tom Hanks,Robin Wright Penn and Sally Field-Based on the 1986 novel by Winston Groom,the film follows the life of a somewhat mentally challenged man from Alabama,Forrest Gump. He accomplishes many great things throughout his life and was coincidentally present during significant historic events such as a meeting with Elvis Presley,JFK and Richard Nixon--far exceeding what anyone imagined he was capable of.Yet,despite all the fame fortune and glory,he struggles with his one true love,Jenny. Although he shows that determination,courage and love are important,he proves that you don't have to be a genius to inspire or become successful. After all, "Life is like a box of chocolates,you never know what you're gonna get." The film garnered a total of six Oscars,another 32 awards and numerous other nominations.

ending of week no.10

Ending of week no.10

Ler's mood for the week: climatically upset-for the past week it hasn't been easy for me.It's a critical period for me to live/struggle between 2 emotions(yet to say,of course is a SAD and HAPPY one) I wouldnt want to further extract my words on the matter,one of these day(soon),you guys will find out! For this time to claim everyone came,too,unbidden. I didnt reveal anything till much later.Suffering thru hellish grief,i was simply staggered by gratitude.

Eric & Gf: thanks for catching WATER HORSE with me,sorry to drag both of u along,seeing the tiredness on both of u makes me feel even guilty, eric had always been a great helper to me despite our 13 yrs friendship


Jillian: a lots of appreciation to be shown here. She incredibly help me pack all my luggages and took a cab with me,down to my new place


Shihui: supper-ing with her had always been enjoyable,the moment in that few hrs drifted me apart from the reality


Jenny/Rainy: thks for all the encouraging sms-es and willingly to listen



Alex: the only person who's capable to drunk me in my life-time and now he broke the record by hitting twice,damned it!! (then why should i thank him??) the more i drank the more i'm discard away from the real-world,but i would really thank him personally if he can delete away those pictures in his phone,i wouldn't want to be the next 'non-shirtless' edison,otherwise we shall declare world-war-3 soon.



Gan/Mei ting: sorry to keep u both worried,esp Gan. Thanks for being such an encouraging friend,despite i only known u for 4mths....


words is deceiving( i guess so),actions prolong sincerity! Thanks to those ppl above,its been just a short period,you can call me 'greedy',but i would love to have them around me. I may need more arms to lean on and share problems no-one else understands. As i describes it; they're like locational humour,to get it,you had to be here. They always was.



lers-movie of the week: AUGUST RUSH-The casting was terrific. Cinematography was fluid and lyrical. The plot line while essentially predictable was still highly fullfilling on many levels. I knew nothing about this film prior to watching it and from the first scene when the boy is showing his exceptional ability to hear the music of nature around him and how the director protrayed this visually I became instantly interested in this talented movie-makers's journey I was about to take.I strongly recommend this movie for the whole family.

lers-record of the week: COLBIE CAILLAT-COCO: colbie breezes into the room with her airy charm and i'm capitvated. This singer/songwriter checks her angst at the door as she flutters around sweeter territories. But make no mistake of dismissing this songstress as being candy floss because she has assembled a crisp and catchy set on COCO. Having a father who produced Fleetwood Mac records would go some way into instilling some roots in her,and that's exactly what she displays in abundance here.Is she the new Norah Jones? Perhaps,but definitely a lot less lazy-sounding.

lers all time classic: EASON CHAN-ADMIT IT: The world of Eason chan,arguably Hongkong's most versatile vocalist,is a surprisingly mellow and human one.Unlike glam-whore Nicholas Tse,Eason's rock star attitude is only in the hair.His bad boy antics are kept firmly to the stage,thank you.Maybe it's his dad's recent incarceration,or the relaxant of fatherhood,but this album speaks heartfelt volumes.Even though eight tracks here are translated from cantonese,it's hard to ignore the sensitivity.The songs flit between easy pop-rock,jazzy ditties and delicate ballads.They're never laboured,and the lyrics ring with moving honesty.Once again,its the pretty,slower numbers that shine with vintage Eason touches.The best tracks here have to be 'long time no see',a quiet piano melody about a bittersweet meeting with an ex;and 'love is a book',an upbeat little jaunt about,well,love.Musically,its not breaking new ground,but fans wont need too big an adventure.It's not quite the obvious winner as 2005's U87 was,but it's definitely a grower.

how to wear sunglasses

HOW TO WEAR SUNGLASSES






You probably have a drawerful of discarded eyewear that never quite worked on you. But once you learn how to match the shape of the frames to the shape of your face, your only worry will be finding the time to wear them all.





Triangular face: If you have a broad forehead and a narrow chin, choose sunglasses that mimic your bone structure. Light metal frames that are wider on the top than on the bottom, like aviators, are ideal. Gradient lenses will enhance the flattering effect—boldly tinted ones will not.

Oval face: If your visage is long and lean, opt for frames that accentuate its width. Heavy plastic wraparounds and sunglasses with oversize, geometric lenses are on the list of styles that balance oblong features nicely. To be avoided at all costs: delicate, John Lennon–style frames.

Round face: Full cheeks and a curved jawline call for frames with a contrasting angular shape. Boxy plastic or metal pairs in a size that won’t overtake your face work equally well—just make sure the corners are slightly rounded, not sharp, or you’ll look like you’re channeling Neo in The Matrix.

gala premieres

gala premiere 1-10,000BC
4th march,tuesday
golden village@vivocity

Thks to tanya chua,who actually holding a concert in HK when i'm watching 10,000BC. I'm glad that i was invited for the show,well supposingly i should thks my friend,jonathan,without his departing to HK to interview tanya's gracefully well commented solo concert,i think i would have to crash my wallet for this movie

what is 10,000BC all about?

-by now most of u've probably seen the trailers for it,an epic film about the time when spirits ruled the land and mighty mammoths shook the earth.That's right,the one with the giant elephant-like creatures with sharp horns and cool savage-looking characters.The film spins the tale of a young hunter D'LEH,played by steven strait,who must rescue his damsel in distress,the beautiful EVOLET,portrayed by camilla belle. Both the stars might look aliens to u,but i think that these 2 will become household names pretty soon,especially if 10,000BC turns out to be as gd as i think it could be.However,if u cant wait to see the both of them on screen,here's a little bit more about the hunk and hunk-ette....(opens 6th march)

STEVEN STRAIT,21. The tortured leader of the super-powered boyband-like good guys in THE COVENANT and the aspiring emo-rock musician who didnt take his shirt off enough in UNDISCOVERED.Oh,and he was also in SKY HIGH.

CAMILLA BELLE,21. If you're a fan of the indie film scene(like me),you may have spottted her in THE BALLAD OF JACK AND ROSE and THE CHUMSCRUBBER.She was most recently seen screaming her lungs out in horror flick,WHEN A STRANGER CALLS.

when i got home that night my brother passed me a small parcel,to my surprise it was kenji latest album,together with it pre-order hp strip.Thks to ah-jiao,my taiwanese DJ fren,she actually remembered that i love kenji haha and she even wrote me a small note to warn me not to rip the cd or send any of his songs out(except those that had been played on air) because the official date of it release is 14th march,and i received kenji album like 10days earlier. Omg would his record label in singapore sue me if they see this haha.I shall review his album after it releases in the whole-asian market.



gala premiere 2-RULE #1

5th march,wednesday

golden village @vivocity

A lot of celebrities appeared for this gala premiere,and honourably i was invited by CROCODILE to attend this function.There was special appearances by the lead actor EKIN CHENG,SHAWN YUE,co-actress FIONA XIE and director KELVIN TONG(though i never see them)

what is rule #1 all about?

-this supernatural killer helmed by local director kelvin tong,who brought us THE MAID(2005) and MEN IN WHITE(2007),centres on distress calls received by the police force.Each day,185 phone calls are received;out of these,180 are about rapes,murders,robberies and kidnappings,but the other 5 begin with 'there's something stranger in my house...' But the ghostbusters aren't coming to rescue this time;instead the movie reveals what happen when the police take time to investigate what they assume are oddballs with trigger-happy fingers (opens 13th march)

Ahhhhhhh nat and me:i had got the same outfit but mine is in red....HENG AH

If i'm the leaf i guess uncle thomas should be the dried-leaf haha

I dont mean to be the 3rd party haha i'm just a passer-by beside michelle and shaun,btw shaun was in kelvin tong previous movie,MEN IN WHITE.

Locally well-groomed movie star qi yu wu

I was once a nerdy-king but now no more,i pass on my baton to elvin ng

missing you+happy night

missing you+happy night





Had been missing A ever since we last met...i'll always remember the very 1st day when we saw one another,the graciously smile and innumerable eye contacts.After talking to A i could feel a profound attachment forming between us,but i also felt uneasy because A seem so dissemble towards it feeling. Though all the while we made no effort to see each other.Also,part of me didnt want to disturb my sweet memory of A.Regardless,i harboured a secret wish that one day i could see A at where we first met...now i'm sure that my dream had come true,can u believe i saw A actually on 29th feb which was like leap years.So are we suppose to meet every 4yrs from now on?? And we met at our fren's pub opening;same interior but different location.I never expected to renew our relationship.I simply believed that A was the only person on earth who could understand me and with whom i could share my thoughts.Last night was the 2nd time in a wk we'd met in pub, just wanna say i really missed u a lot and seeing u that often was really pleasing.

pictures taken at eric's pub

ENDING OF WEEK NO.9

ler's mood for the week: swinging. I'm happy to see the guys again,its been awhile since we last gather up. From the top left: LOUIS-hey hey happy to see the pounds-off-you,work harder ok and we shall meet up for movie again. 1st row left: SHAWN-havent change much;still mouth full of &$+&%^*% but to my surprise he's actually looking for a non-fiction book to read,yes is a written book not english book=pornography,too bad u forgotten the title. 1st row right: ANDY-he seldom wear red or should i say it's my first time seeing him in red haha well credit should goes to me,beside the adidas cap he's wearing,the remaining outfits and accessories was indeed chosen by me,i'm his official fashion advisor

lers-movie of the week: i hasnt got time to catch a nice show this week so i shall recommend an upcoming movie instead;one that looks nice(hopefully) by judging from it poster/trailers

21-even though it centers on a tired topic-vegas high rollers-21 isnt just another story about beating the odds.The big screen adaptation of the book Bringing Down the House,in which a geeky MIT student uses his math ability to become a dorked-out Danny Ocean,is more about an oddly compelling character,Ben Campbell(Jim Sturgess),than it is about high stakes drama.We root for Campbell as he woos his crush(Kate Bosworth),double-crosses his professor(Kevin Spacey),and sticks it to the casinos.With a summer of save-the-world crusaders on the way,he's the kind of hero you can get behind,even if his luck does eventually run out....a teens version of oceans trilogy

lers-record of the week:Jack Johnson-sleep through the static: who knew the guy who once formed a punk band called Limber Chicken would be one of the hippest singers on the surfing scene? Recorded in his eco-friendly,solar-powered studio,johnson's fifth album features more electric guitar sounds.The hawaiian singer/songwriter again chants his feel-good mantras about the environment,and teams up with JP Plunier(who's responsible for 2001's Brushfire Fairytales)

highly recommend: If i had eyes-is like a warmth greeting

lers all time classic:Fish leong-kissing the future of love: Jay Chou,Mayday,Cheer Chen,Tanya,Sandee Chen...with a roster of contributors that reads like the who's who of mandopop,Fish eighth album sounds mighty impressive even before i play it.Thankfully,it more than measures up to expectations.Thoughtful,whimsical,quirky and romantic,Fish's love songs are balm for the bruised soul.My pick's 'petty',a playful,jazzy duet with Cheer about 2 girls who love the same guy,secretly wishing that the other would give him up.Cheer's sweet,slightly husky voice blends so deliciously with Fish's deeper pipes against the sexy saxophone-clarinet arrangement that i wish that the 2 had got together earlier. 'Cola ring' brings back memories of being young,foolish and painfully innocent;Mayday singer-songwriter Ashin's awshucks lyrics about a pull-tab engagement ring and a promise of eternal love scribbled on a sweet wrapper are particularly endearing.'Amnesia' is surprising in that it doesnt sound at all like Jay's work---it's a sedate little tearjerker that's actually quite good.'Too blur' is another pleasant surprise for Fish's attempt at singing in the taiwanese dialect,something she pulls off quite remarkably.Musically,this isnt an adventurous album.Emotionally,it continues to strike new chords in me---not an easy feat,considering this is her eighth album.

lers star strike:4****out of 5

lers craving of the week: a nice pot of homemade mushroom soup

lers dream-house:The primary colours and unconventional shapes of these flats made me smile but though they may be adorable,these arent merely renderings or styled for the sake of style.These are the 'reversible destiny lofts-mitaka(in memory of Helen Keller)',they're real and have a dead serious objective behind their cheery facade....Each flat is priced roughly at US$750,000.

tantalisingly,the reversible destiny website actually has a rendering of a 'hotel reversible destiny-paris',though it have no news as yet if and when this will become reality

leehom please come back

HE had been disappeared for almost 3mths HE was last seen on stage performing for sony ericsson's concert HE should be in Shanghai right now.
