For someone who tot 孫子兵法 is related to 諸葛亮, she tot the show was quite entertaining.. Although its a 2hours+ show, she didn't feel sleepy at all throughout the show... it was pretty entertaining... and it even inspire her to go read the Three Kingdom book.... and can't wait for part 2 to be launch...
But for someone who already read before the Three Kingdom, he found that the casting of the show was not really well done... much could be done to improve the X factors of the characters... besides, the martial arts were also not very well design...
So its really individual lah.... but still I feel that although Takashi didn't really fit into the image of 諸葛亮, but I tot he acted quite well for the character.. cute and cool... :P
The last words I remember hearing from him was Jit Bah aka 100 aka 100 plus... It was a simple request to drink 100-plus, but we can't even fulfill his need, cause his body wasn't fit to drink 100 plus at that time... but little did we know, it will be his last request....
Slowly, we saw him falling into coma.... and finally leaving us to a faraway land... seeing him withering away, probably death is a better route... so hopefully he can enjoy his 100-plus or bowl of mee-siam / mee-reebus at where he is now...
This is a photo of him when we celebrated his 80th birthday in March... The last birthday we celebrated for him.. Its a pity that he didn't manage to drink the grand-daughter-in-law tea from me.. but I'm sure he will know it from where he is now... and will give us his blessings.... Rest in peace Ah Gong.... you will be remembered by all of us....
Death is part and parcel of life... but when facing the demise of a love one, each step is difficult... we know that we should cherish our family and friends when they are living... but more often than not we are not doing so.... we loose our temper, we scold them, we criticize them... we do lots of things to hurt our love ones... and when they die, we start to feel sad... cannot accept the fact that they are no longer there.. then why didn't we show more love when they are still around? The irony of human beings.... having say so much I'm one of the "victim" to such behavior... for the easiest way out, blame it on the hectic lifestyle of Singapore...
Its his birthday today... but there will be no celebration this year...
or maybe later if he still want...
Last saturday we finally confirm our bridal studio... Blush Blush shall be it... we were too lazy and too tired to go hunt for more.. besides we really like Blush Blush design... :)
Anyway a small episode happen when we were at blush blush.... we went there to pay the deposit, and I ask Pin to refresh the package with us as we lost the paper and only remember the final pricing... and after deducting all the services we don't need, he quoted us a figure... we went like "huh?"... cos we remember the amount was $1000 lesser... and Pin recalculated and said that it should be that amount... then I tot probably that day Vincent calculated wrongly.... and we both sort of confirm we remember it as at X price.... and Pin even politely joke we ask tat we didn't bluff him right... and we both said No... and Pin look and stare at the paper and finally quoted us a price which is X + $100... saying that is the best price he can give us... well, we were fine with it since we have no paper to proof ourselves, and probably Vincent did calculated wrongly that day...
THEN, we left the shop to have lunch... and he ask me izzit we remember wrongly.. as that was the day I recieved my travel insurance claim.. we sort of say we will each take $500 from this claim and contribute it to the bridal studio... so in the end we remember it as X instead of X + $1000... and yah, I kindda of remember that happening.. so after all this, we are the one who remember wrongly!!! O.M.G....
anyway we decide that we will go back to Pin and pay him back the $1000... but after staring yet again at the paper for a while, Pin says that its okie... we can either top up later when we decide for the gown design (if I choose a really complicated one), or we can just buy him a dinner... i really hope is as he says... :P
well, we really didn't mean to go cheat his money... its just the failing memory of two 29 28 years old...
你是聽「麗的呼聲」長大的嗎？
今天的「我報」有個「麗的呼聲」的專題報導。
小不點看了有許多的感觸。
因為小不點就是聽「麗的呼聲」長大的。
記得小時後很喜歡聽他們的廣播劇。
從少年廣播劇到瓊瑤的，小不點都聽的津津有味。
以前小時後父母出外工作，哥哥姊姊也不在家，
就只是「麗的呼聲」里的聲音陪伴這小不點。
只是到了年紀大了一點，小不點就改聽別的電台了。
記得小不點媽以前臨睡前都會把「麗的呼聲」的聲量調到最大，
因為隔天６點鐘就會有公雞的叫聲，也是小不點媽的鬧鐘。
那聲音當然是「麗的呼聲」開台的記號．隨著公雞的叫聲就是國歌了。
除持之外，小不點媽也會在拜六禮拜守在「麗的呼聲」旁，
等待萬字票的開採結果。
算算，小不點的家沒有「麗的呼聲」已經１０年了。
因為要搬家，所以提早把「麗的呼聲」給取消了。
「麗的呼聲」是小不點小時後記憶的一部份。
希望他們能繼續經營下去。
Spoiler Alert!!!
因為故事只是很平淡的發展。
一直到所謂的「翻外篇」。
故事才有個讓我每篇都感動落淚的情節。
也明白了為何前面必須要淡淡的發展。
因為戀愛而成長。
為了戀愛而丟了性命。
很悽美，很感人。更讓人心痛。
還好，小不點不會這樣。
還好．．．還好．．．
有市川拓司一向來的寫作風格，
主角永遠都有著一些怪病，
有著內向的性格，卻也因為如此，
而有著不平凡的戀情。
看了小說，現在可以去看電影版了。
會有不一樣的感覺嗎？
小不點期待著，
可是還是要找時間坐下來慢慢欣賞這部片。
Show us what you wish you were doing right now.
Humans need to be more objective first before becoming defensive...
applies to me as well....
I was sitting at the Coffee Bean at WM waiting for him to get off work... and I can't help but overheard these two ladies talking about the question of "Why get married?"...
A few years back I would have answer to have children... and if I can't have kids, I probably wouldn't get married...
now that I'm half year into my legally married life and about 7 months into my customary wedding... i probably would give a different answer....
For some weird reason, when you found your one, you would want to start living with that person... its probably what is call love.... and of course you can do that by co-hibiting, but for some reason the getting married part seems to be a more appropriate way of doing it... or maybe you just want to announce to the whole world that he/her is mine.... and the process just seems to bring the relationship to another level....
of course nobody can guarantee the success of a marriage... and alot are afraid of making the first step out because they probably dunno how to handle the "failure"... but I feel, if u don't take the first step, you would never know what is the ending.... so what if the marriage fails? that is all part and parcel of life... you mourn, you cry, but you get over it and become a stronger person... i guess that is the worst that can happen to a failed marriage... the thing about "face" is all internal... it takes time and courage to step out of it... but i guess it can still be done... of course its easier said then done...
So I just wish all married couples stay happily married... and all single person be able to find your one... and those who are in a rough patch be able to quickly get over... wish everybody happiness....
*hmmm.. how come the post ended with a weird note... :P *
Been so busy going around checking the bridal studios.. viewing the flats, etc... Feel like I haven't been having good rest for a long long time... and is also missing out in meeting my friends... and even spending some leisure time with him.... life is catching up on me....
