Music, Lyrics & Hugh Grant

Went to watch “music & lyrics” with a nice friend who don’t really like Hugh Grant. When I keep praising Hugh Grant before the show started, he gave me a so evil yet so funny look in his eyes. ^-^

Hugh Grant is not the best actor, not the most talented and handsome one, however, he has a charm and character that will caught my attention all the time. His dialogue in a movie will always be witty and intelligent. He fits perfectly in a romantic comedy with his style of humor. His wrinkles on his face is the sexiest and irresistible attraction.

Hugh Grant really surprised me with his rather amusing and a pretty good voice. He sings, he dances, he cracks me up both in his acting & singing in this movie. My favorite track is “Don’t Write Me Off”. It shows off his talent in singing and piano. Watch now : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dYc3PblZR8

‘Music & Lyrics’ is a feel good movie; it is an unusually witty and intelligent romantic comedy (because Rotten Tomatoes said so).

The catchy songs and a good story line makes us smile, we really enjoyed it.

I asked my friend again after the movie : “Do you like Hugh Grant slightly more now?” His answer was : “well.. I do like Hugh Grant, just not as crazy as you. I never say he is bad, he is a good actor though.”
hee..hee.. did I hear it wrongly? ;)

What a wonderful way to spend a weekend with a good movie, good music, good acting and most importantly, a great company.

Colors Don't Lie

Colour psychology has time and again proved that colours don't just add a fun element to our lives, but also add new dimensions to it. While our body language can speak about our behavioural patterns, the colours we sport can definitely tell us a lot about our emotional life and how highly we rate as a romantic partner. - The Economic Times

It's your turn to reveal you true color.

If I could only choose one color, it is PINK

Being Courageous

I would like to introduce you a friend - Zip. The gentleman I had lunch with, in my last post.
This post was written by Zip. I've invited him to reply to your comments. – pink ginger.

*************************

I wish to thank pink-ginger for sharing what she thought of that encounter. I must admit, I didn't really know how to respond to the blog after reading it. I allowed too many considerations stop me from saying thank you and acknowledging her for her kind words; considerations that I assure you are mostly imaginary.

Too often and too easily I allow considerations stop me from doing what will give me access to a more enriched life. Concerns about being rejected and therefore missing out opportunities to meet new people; concerns about sounding silly by asking an important question during lecture and therefore missing out on having an answer right then; concerns about my future and if I can support all my financial commitments if I just quit my current job and go free-lance – maybe I'll make tons of money as a free-lancer, who knows?!

But I suspect that is such how many of us go through life that – pre-wired to survive this world. Too many knocks and disappointments and we condition ourselves to survive and avoid them as much as we can.

So my sense of being courageous was renewed after reading pink-ginger's blog. She reminded me that being courageous is not necessarily about 'pump-up the adrenaline, pick-up the guts and charge forward and worry about consequences later'. But it's about not giving up acting; it's about being in action and not letting our considerations stop us. Pink-ginger, thanks for your contribution!

Little Things That Make Me Smile

I was invited to lunch with a friend recently. It was our first lunch together. His office was just across the road directly opposite my office, about 80 meters away. He suggested a restaurant behind his office.

That was a very casual lunch with minimum arrangement. I prepared to cross the road to meet up with him at his office lobby, as I will be passing by his office to go to the restaurant.

I received his call when I was just stepping out of the office. He said he'd arrived, waiting for me at the lobby in my office building. Oh... didn't expect him to come over. I told him that I can actually meet him across the road.

"I am here to pick you." He answered with a smile, wasn't realised that I was flattered by his sweet surprise.

After lunch, again we passed by his office. I asked him to get back to work and I will go back to the office by myself but he suggested to walk me back. He accompanies me until I get into the lift.

Perhaps it's not a big deal for a man to do a simple thing like this, but usually people will not do it if the distance was just across the road. It takes an extra effort and a different mindset for one to do things that may be unnecessary or less significant in the eye of the public.

What really flatters a woman is that you think her worth flattering - a little surprise, concern & pampering means alot, these are priceless.
I was impressed by his gesture and kindness. His thoughtfulness makes me feel warm inside. This is a Big thing to me !

We had a good conversation together over simple lunch.

Even though I don't remember the date, the time, meals we ordered and the color of his shirt, but this sweet encounter will be in my memory for a long time.
