Stranger than Fiction

Thats the name of the movie i just caught for free yesterday night. Watched the 9:30 show with my baby and so happened that chris chan seng lok and his girly girl were in the same theatre, at the same time, just a couple of seats away...still, we didnt even know we were as close to each other as we were....

Anyway....

Stranger than fiction tells a story of a man...Harold Crick was his name... who lives a rather mundane life, even that is an understatement to how mundane his life really is....and about an author who is undergoing a major case of writers block who is finding a way to finish her latest piece which impossibly involves the actual life of this Harold Crick. Basically, whatever he does is being narrated by that female author. The story slowly unfolds with Harold finding romance, learning the values of life, and realizing that the narrative voice he hears, is in fact real and not a mere sound in his head....
The rest...I think you should find out for yourself.... the movie is great... totally out of the ordinary and is worth a watch....maybe not necessarily in the cinema because of its non-existent special effects (u dont need special effects in a show like this), so do grab a pirated copy of the DVD and watch it in the comfort of your own home.... if u have a girlfriend or boyfriend, watch it with him or her....
Really good film...unless your one of those people with lack of substance and only enjoy shows like crossroads, bring it on...you get the picture.... This show is not at all Shallow....

Douglas does not condone the purchase of pirated items.

The Show sort of inspires you to live life more... although its just a movie, it does in fact carry a lot of messages and pulls on the emotional strings.... Comedy is of abundance as well...as with all Will Ferell shows...

Enough with the life of harold crick...on to the my own life....

My new found fashion

Life's been good actually...in fact, its more than good... in the great lyrics of switchfoot, life is in fact, more than fine....
First off...works been great.... My team is being led by a couple of american gentlemen who have been of great help and motivation to me and the whole team.... ive stepped up a notch, got an increment last month, and have been promised chances of promotion... That being said, work has in fact, taken a turn for the better.... I just did a short recording for my company, as were trying to get an account with Google, so i had to read a script with an american accent....hahahah....i guess all this practice with accents is proving to have a purpose after all....

My baby and i? Well, were doing very very well now.... we just got past some rough patches and i must say its made our relationship more mature.... I can actually feel a sense of, how would you say..... Development.... its taken a step up....and i couldnt be happier...Furthermore, valentines is around the corner....

My car? well.... its pretty much the same....found out that my brakes were too think to be skimmed and i ran the risk of them disintegrating with high speed braking if i skimmed then.... To make things worse, a replacement set of discs would set me back about 170 bucks a piece.... SO now, im just focusing on the air cond for next month... Doesnt bother me too much anyway as the brakes are working fine, the steering wheel just vibrates a little when braking at reasonable speeds....

Family life has worked out well as well.... My sister seems to have gotten herself sorted out, mum has managed to get herself settled in their shifting to California, i just took grandpa and grandma out for dinner at manattan fish market with my baby...something which i should have done a while ago...., but ive still yet to work things out with dad.... sigh...i dont know how im gonna do that one, but im sure it'll come together one day.... god willing....

Well...thats about all thats been happening with me from a large scale.... not too long ago, the usual suspects and I managed to take a trip to Zoo Negara.... Yea, good fun although i thought it wouldve been boring.... The trip has basically been covered in kevins blog and my babys blog...so i dont think it'd serve much purpose here....






Wonder where the next trip will be....

Apart from that, i went clubbing with my dear cousin chris...brought my baby to finally have her R&B music with cousin sarah...met countless people at Maisons....good fun although i couldve done with more drinks....all i had was a beer....18 bucks....sigh....Poor month for me...




Anyway...

My eyes are failing on me once again, and the weather isnt helping much.... really hot here in the computer room.... Think ill call it a night....
its friday tomoro and then its the weekend....yeay...

Dougie signing out....
