Happy 2008!

hey yo~ welcome to 2008. a brand new year with lots of surprises awaiting… let’s pull up our socks, as well as our foresights, and embrace 2008 with even more love, attention and hard work!!!!

yoz. i’m really in a n euphoria realm now, cuz i’m blasting my speakers with real goooooo~oo~ooD korean hip hop grooves~ well, i guess those are added with bit of pop, but they’re really so good that enliven my mood instantly. wooooz~ it’s a marvelous vibe feast for my ears.

it’s preety busy these few days and my feet are aching without enuff rest. those blisters surfaced, tortured me, burst, once again appearing, crucified me again and again… what to do, giving you good shoes yet u all still have the guts to do it again and again~ argh~ dun care lar dun care lar… and so i went out, having the first till the last footstep aching.

recently, i had my first veg meal in a prim and proper restaurant. big hugs and thanks to those who made it thru the meal, as well as the efforts to receive my ovation. but i’ve a message that i really really wanna shout out, but it’s too impolite to do it there. hehe “the veg stall in causeway point’s food court rates 10x better than 7 sensations…, in my opinion…” in anyways, i’m still trying to keep up to the promise i made to high5 at the table.

have been shopping in those craze sales almost everywhere on the island. while i was mostly in orchard area, i was really awed and disgusted by the large flow and heads in this stretch of road in Singapore. guess i was always at the wrong place at the wrong time where peepz are just pumping in and in… geez, peepz get off my heals and toes, and stop the shoving, get out and lemme sit on that seat in food courts and train, man!~ oh, yea~ ! here’s a big food fetish that i’m hooked on these days: food republic stores unbelievable good foodS! i favour particular stalls, but i’ll explore more i guess they will hardly disappoint me… the ambiance, service, speed and efficiency. thumbs and toes up for ya!

lastly, here’s an offer offer to peepz out there~ sadly and stupidly, i bought this vcd instead of its dvd format which is what i wanted. i’m selling it here at 10 bucks, cheaper than the price i took it off from TS… one of the few best korean movies i have in mind: a moment to remember. buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me, buy from me!!!!!!!!!!!

A Moment to Remember

Divided into four segments, A Moment to Remember follows the theme of discovery in a relationship and the burdens of loss caused by Alzheimer’s disease.

The first segment of the film, staged in romantic comedy style, introduces the protagonists, a woman named Su Jin and a man named Chul Soo. The movie highlights their accidental meeting in a convenience store and confusion over a can of soda, followed by their subsequent courting despite the social standings that should have kept them apart.

The second segment follows the couple now settling into married life. Su-Jin learns to be a housewife as her husband cares for her. But as the segment progresses, Su-jin begins to display forgetfulness, including an incident in which a fire breaks out because of a forgotten stove. While Chul Soo caught the fire in time, the seriousness of the incident and others draw them to seek medical help.

The third segment involves the revelation of Alzheimer’s disease and the couple’s consequent response to it. Su Jin is heavily burdened by the knowledge that she will forget her husband and hides it from him at first until he seeks advice from the doctor himself. Despite the disease, they make the commitment to stay together and as the disease progresses, the trials the couple go through increase because of Su Jin’s forgetfulness.

The fourth segment reveals Su-jin in the final stages of the disease and the grief Chul Soo experiences because of it. Yet he remains beside her, despite her lost memory, hiding his eyes behind sunglasses when he visits her so she can’t see his tears.
