This young child ROCKS!!

A dear friend emailed me a link to this YouTube video. It's about a 5-year old who was born blind but can play the piano by ear since she was 3.

It's very touching. She's not even the mother's own child. She was adopted. I admire her mother too for the love she showered upon this little girl.

And when the clock strikes..

I have no idea what I will do or how I will react. I've been quiet. On my blog, that is. Haven't got the time to write, haven't got the time to craft. Need to find an outlet for my pent-up frustrations soon.

Contemplating solution that a blogger friend took. Not sure if I should yet. I think I should contact her first and then evaluate from there.

I just can't understand. I need just the basic informations to do my job. Why can't the said person just give it to me? Won't he want me to do my job too as it would ultimately affect his? Sigh. My bro says maybe I'm a threat. But oh please. I'm so blardy new in that job lah. Maybe he just plain doesn't like my face *shrug* Either way, I'm in some kind of deep sh*t.

SIGHZzzz...

Can't wait for this release, though!

I have an addiction to the Chronicles of Narnia. So much so that I wish it really is true and I could be sucked into it. Only thing is, I wouldn't want to return. Well, I think the Pevensies might not have wanted to, either.

Yes, I know I'm no longer a 'child' and in the book only children were 'allowed' into Narnia from our world. I would like to think I have the soul of a child still and that in my heart of hearts, I am forever one *grins*

Can't wait for the release of Prince Caspian...let's just hope it won't dissappoint me. I have a very *vivid* imagination :D

It tells the truth? Oh, really...

I'm talking about the movie "The Golden Compass". I know, I'm a bit late on catching up on my movies but better late than never, right?

The cast it boasts is admirable. With yummy eye-candies in the likes of Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig and Eva Green, it should be worth a watch just because of them :) The CGI and sets are beautiful to boot too. I am impressed with the cinematographics, music scores and the acting.

Sad thing is, I don't really understand the movie. Initially I thought, heck, as the show progresses, it might make more sense. You know, like those suspense movies? But it never did. I give it credit for all the beauty and the actions it has but a solid story line?? One that expands? Nada. Nope. Zilch.

BF says maybe we have to read the book first. But that doesn't make sense. Most movie adaptations from books were of course not as great as the writings but it made sense. I could understand the plot in Memoirs of a Geisha, LOTR, Narnia, Harry Potter series to name a few but this one just doesn't really have the gelling effect.

In terms of special effects and eye-candies, I think it's worth a watch but it's nothing to shout about. Maybe the book ain't that worth reading either. I have read all the above mentioned books, though. Every single one of them. Of course, the power of the mind is greater than what any movie producer can create but this one, sigh. I think they need to make it more 'understandable'. I was still in the 'huh'? mode when the credits came up. Did my research on it in Wiki but uhm, I still think this plot doesn't really tickle my fancy and boy, am I one to love fantasy.

ho-hum....
