watched 2 dvds and a movie in the span of 2 days. not bad. but they were not my usual fare. nevertheless they were entertaining.
'8 below'. a movie i wanted to catch but it seemed targeted for little kids and i certainly did not want to be in a theatre with heaps of parents and their little ones. the reason why i wanted to catch it? the dogs and the landscape. and after watching it (with the making-of video included in the dvd), i'm even more compelled to retire one day to some remote snow blanketed region of this world. i guess the plot was a little well, i guess unimaginative is probably the best word, but hey, it's supposed to be an inspirational story based on a true story, so i didnt expect any interesting turn of events. but the lanscape was just spectacular. i guess i have a soft spot for things white. haha!

'keeping mum' and 'thank you for smoking' were both good comedies. it's been a long time since i've laughed quite a bit watching movies. i heard pirates of the caribbean is also laughter inducing. anyway, both movies had witty diaglogues and a great plot, even though one could immediately feel that there was a slight difference between the 2. i havent figured out what that is. but one was more like a typical british comedy and the other, well, actually 'thank you for smoking' was kinda like 'snatch' minus the action. all in all a good laugh!
i'm counting down. 4 more days (excluding today) to my grandma's return. and then, no more trips down to the hospital daily.
i just realised how possibly impossible next year's grad trip may be. hmmm, need to go off for a while, maybe i'll write more later.
