What A Relief It's Over!

 Phew...I am glad THAT is over and done with.

Oh good!  I can stop whining and driving her bonkers now.

Auntie Tooki grabbed a tranquiliser recently and instead of sending her to sleep, she became a tearful insomniac watching it.  She bought it because of that handsome looking man on the right.  She couldn't recognise the lady but was delighted when it turned out to be Kim Seon-ah (she always makes Auntie Tooki laugh).  However, the specky guy on the left made Auntie Tooki almost, almost fall in love because he tangoed charmingly in the movie, among other things.

The synopsis on the cover might help you grasp the gist of the story.

What?  You don't know what they're talking about?!!  Neither did I.

The story was about a woman who had cancer and given only 6 months to live.  To cut a long story short, she made a list of things she wanted to do before she dies.  She managed to do all that she wanted to do and when she didn't die after 6 months she decided to live each extra day happily, doing what she enjoyed most without holding anything back.  I think that's a great way to live regardless of how long/short our lives may be.  Hmmm, wonder if I should quit my job and stay home all day with my doggies...

It was dull, dull, dull.  Instead of scratching my ears, giving me my usual belly rub and blogging about us, she just kept staring at that black box on the wall.  That dvd deserved to be chewed.

Movies I Watched

I read "A Christmas Carol" when I was still in school and I have even written a script based on it for a Christmas play but this animation is really, really good. My family and I were mesmerized. It should be watched every Christmas so that we will always remember that life is short and there's no time to be a scrooge. I wish I could feel as alive and joyful and generous as Scrooge was (when he found out he wasn't dead), not just once a year but everyday. Someone told me Tangled (or Rapunzel) is funny and nice but I found it so very boring. Despicable Me is more my cup of tea because it made me laugh all the way.
