Letters from Iwo Jima

Dear Policeman Paul (PP),

Pls come back to the library. Without you, it feels as though the library is a battlefield. The situation is tense. Chaos and disorder reign supreme. Plenty of eyes straing at me....those we've offended. Dont 'pangseh' me.

Regards
The racially harmonious Korean Man.

Secret Sunshine

I wanted to watch 'Leap Years' yesterday. Im quite a avid supporter of local production. And i quite like the tune everytime they play the trailer on tv. Ended school early at 1pm. But no one wants to watch. Fong had project and Paul had tuition. So decided to stay in school for a while to study with Azhar. Ended up talking to him about korean drama and songs. But i still felt like goin to watch movie or walk around in town. Maybe feel a bit sian of school. So went to find good old sergi at SMU at nite. Plan to go Carrefour but ended up going Cathay. Initially i wanted to watch Leap Years but while queing up for the tix, i saw the korean movie 'Secret Sunshine'. I just read about it in the newspaper that morning. The movie had scooped 3 awards at the Asian Film Festival. Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress. And the actress was chio in the papers.Although we have no clue at all what the storyline would be like. So it was a decision between leap years or secret sunshine. In the end we watched Secret Sunshine.

Secret Sunshine is not the typical Korean drama. Its those abstract, arthouse kind of film. The storyline is quite interesting though its a bit slow at times, typical of this genre.And everytime they speak a word i know, i feel so happy. Lol.
The story is about a woman(Jeon Do Yeon) who is a single mum. In the begining of the show, she and her son move to Miryang (which means secret sunshine in chinese). Miryang is the birthplace of her late husband. Unfortunately her son got kidnapped and murdered by the school bus driver. From then on, the whole show revolves around her....how she cant cope with the death of her son,how her whole life turn upside down, how she seduced the pharmacist husband(lucky bastard). The movie also potrays a lot about Christianity. The ending was a bit abrupt but certain parts of the show are nice. Like how the guy who like the actress stayed with her through thick and thin...and even when she got mad.The part where she seduces the pharmacist is quite funny. Coz the pharmacist is a religious person. Then when they were 'doing it', the pharmacist stops halfway as he feels guilty. His reason.....'he feels stress..maybe god is watching. lol!!! But that incident set me thinking.Wen im married already, will i succumb to temptation if a girl throw herself at me.....a korean one mind you. I was thinking of this the whole night. And i still dare not say definitely ' I wont'. It makes me feel guilty. Does this makes me a bad person? I pray God wont ever test me this way.


I definitely enjoy the show. The performance of the actress(Jeon Do Yeon) is indeed worthy of Best Actress. In fact she also won at Cannes in 2007 for her role in Secret Sunshine. Heres the trailer......

Loyalty

Had to remove tagboard due to some random tags....hmm....some promoting music, others selling viagra. frankly, i dont think i need viagra.

Loyalty is a virtue which is highly commendable. Like how Kelantan is loyal to PAS. And how Hougang is loyal to Low Thia Kiang. I try to be loyal whenever i can. To my religion, family and friends. But sometimes i failed....forgive me if i do.

I feel like seeing PP. Dunno y. I feel like meeting guangfeng oso. Miss him a bt.

Havent been doing much work this week. feel tired and sick

Life is really like a wheel. Sometimes ure on the top side.....other times ure at the down side. Sometimes i make unbelievable saves, other times i make howlers.

Already applied. My dream may just come true.

This friday (14 Mar) is White Day. This day originates from Japan but is widely celebrated in Korea and Taiwan as well. Coz in Korea, during V dae, girls will buy for guys chocs. Well, you can give to your lovers, but you can also give to your family, friends, etc...juz like how its celebrated in Singapore except the girls give while the guys take. So, there is a day exactly one month later.....ie..14 Mar,
which is call 'White Day'. On this day, the guys would buy for the gals stuff, mainly candies. I got to know about it in one of the Korean Drama ive watched..lol.
And theres also 'Black Day'(14 Apr) celebrated exactly one month after White Day . This day is when singles come together to 'celebrate' their singlehood. Its call 'black day', as they tend to eat white korean noodle with BLACK sauce......hence the name. Interesting ritez!!!!!!!

Random

Was watching a Siti Nurhaliza programme on RTM 1 with my mum. No doubt, Siti Nurhaliza has grown slightly 'bigger' after her marriage. But her voice is still as powerful, sweet and melodic as ever. She'll always be a diva...a nice one dat is.
Suddenly, i realised that we havent been to Johor for quite a while now. Johor is like our 2nd home.Btw WE=Durian brothers, Sergi, Lam brothers,etc....... I kinda miss that feeling. As what Kee Sian said, when are in Johor, all the troubles seems to go away. No stress, juz shopping, eating and more eating.

Everyone is talking about Mas Selamat. Recently i was reading the forum on 'TODAY', where one of the readers suggested that the government offer a big sum of money to whoever who has information about him. I totally support this idea. Even if there was no money given, ill still report to the police if i were to see him. But if the police really offered a big sum of money, i may consider skipping school for the next few days to try and hunt Mas Selamat down. Ironically, 'Selamat' in Malay means safe.......

School starts tomorow. Although i went to school every single weekday of the mid term break, im dreading to go school tomorow. Having to go lecture and worst still my stoopid EG1473 class. The only thing im looking forward to is tomorow night when i can watch 10 pm drama.Sometimes watching HK drama really makes you wanna throw the remote at the TV screen due to some evil character.
