Coolest combination ever!

Watched The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus today.
The only word came into my mind after the movie was 精彩.
It is not the best movie though, yet it is very pleasant to the eyes!
An enjoyable film!!
Should watched it.
Bonus for the movie is: Johnny Depp + Heath Ledger + Jude Law = ?
You do the maths.
I only see unlimited HEARTS after the equal sign.
Ahh. The movie is kinda confusing though but still in the acceptable level.
In overall, I highly recommend the movie despite the little confusion of the storyline.

And I am looking forward to Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland!
March 2010. I will wait!

Light and shadow.

Just couldn't resist pulling out the camera from the big bag of mine on such a sunny day.













So class just started. Joined gym as last time. Nothing much to do this week. Start learning drawing some potraits, not good though, just to find something to do. Hope to have some self-improvement. Not pro though, at least a start.
Read books. Not many though. But still some.
Watch movies. Some old movies as couldn't get online last few days.

Can't wait Christmas to be here!
:D

Movies is back!!!

Back to Newcastle.
Life is good as usual except the absence of him in this familiar place.
Things're almost settled.
Also many ideas in head to be done.
Anyways, just a little update to the new life in Newcastle.
Today went to the finance department after one class in the morning to sort out the overpaid fees.
After that meeting up with EeYean for lunch and movies. Also met up with Mann for the first time, I mean sitting down and talking for the first time.
Anyways, I'd been so excited since yesterday we decided to watch 2 movies in a day which both of them I was so looking foward to.



Very inspiring. The role of Julia reminds me of myself, couldn't settle down on one particular activity on hands, couldn't concentrate on what she's doing. Didn't know what she can do in her life. However, she found the passion on food. With the passion she learnt cooking. Ahhh...food. Nice food. The movie brings positive message. I couldn't tell the feeling after watching it. I just feel like going to sign up a fashion course after watching it. It's so inspiring, so nice, so ambitious, so passionate. Ahhh whatever, it just makes me feel so good.


After Julie and Julia, we came to another movie, Coco Avant Chanel. Yes, it's in French :S
When I saw the word 'avant', although my French didn't get any improve, I still regconise it's kinda meaning 'advance/before' for time in French. So my first reaction was asking EeYean "Is this in French?!?!"
We were speechless for a while.
Then come to the word 'directeur' on screen.
Still, we're speechless.
And then more french words showing up on screen..
We then both burst into laughs.
"It better has English subtitle", EeYean said.
Luckily it did.
So, another movie that brings up my passion on fashion. I am not a big fans of Chanel though. Couldn't even appreciate mom's Chanel handbag. Her perception on love doesn't attract me too. However, one thing I admire about her is the style of her, simple yet elegant, boyish.
Movie is nicely taken. There's a scene I personally love where there were many French ladies wearing the typical lace girly white dress with lotsa decorations and umbrella, can you imagine the clothing on that century? So yea, many of them walking around and only her, Coco, facing the sea, showing her back with the simple yet classic brown coat, a humble looking coat with strong character. The whole piture brings out the contrast between her and the rest of the ladies.
Very nice.
She is always in black. And I learnt that black brings out the eyes. Knowledge of the day.

Love Tyneside cinema!Love the mood.
