Juno

I had the priviledge to watch a movie preview from a work mate =) Sometimes it is handy to have friends in high places =P Before we watched the movie we had dinner at Sushi Train. Yum =) The movie was called Juno. It was a good movie. It was classified as a comedy. You could describe it as dry humour. So if you appreciate off-centre humour, this movie is for you =)

Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, an offbeat young woman makes an unusual and bizarre decision regarding her unborn child. Apparently the movie is a korean remake. So I heard and been told =P Well I did look it up and yes it is based on a korean movie.

Jeni , Juno is a drama based on what is becoming a serious trouble in Korean society. While the main characters in Jeni, Juno are not as bad as the real ones in society, the movie tries to reflect the issue with more light-hearted way.

Jeni and Juno are 15 years old. And they are an official couple that every student knows in their school. They really do get along well and very close, close enough to have sexual relationship apparently. One day, Jeni takes pregnancy test and it is positive! Jeni panics at first but calms down rather fast and tells Juno about the baby. Despite of the problem, Jeni and Juno are still bright and positive. They wanted to protect the baby and the only way to do so was hide the fact from everyone else, even from their parents. Their secretive life begins like that..

The actress Ellen Page is so pretty. I think she is a cutie =)

Well get to see another movie for free this Wednesday. Can't wait =)

Relaxing time

Today was my first time voting for the Federal Election since I moved to Sydney. It took awhile to vote as I needed to line up to get inside and to get the necessary paperwork. Once you are in, it went really quick.

Those who know me well, I like to do some walking, looking and trying stuff =) I did try some stuff at Cue which I couldn't resist... You know sales assistants keep giving you stuff to try on. There were some things I like but I can't buy just yet. I think I will wait til sale time to get the stuff. There are so many things I want to get. I resisted =) My weaknesses at the moment are shoes =(

I headed to Paddington and had a little walk there and looked at the stores. I found one store that had nice pretty dresses but a bit expensive for me... I went into MAC to have a look at the make up and I saw Jade Macrae, the RnB singer. She is a natural beauty. Beautiful without make-up and dressed casually. I briefly went into the Paddington market. I didn't buy anything... I prefer Glebe market now =) I did buy shoes which I had been eyeing for awhile and as a bonus it was on sale =) There are cute gold flats. So cute. Next time when I need new clothes I will be definitely going to Paddington =)

As I headed back home, I was so exhausted from my walk. Didn't realised how much walking I did today. It was good exercise for me and a chance for me to by on my own and relax =)

Feeling weary

These last few weeks, I have been feeling run down and seem to be losing the battle and not thinking straight. I feel I am not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel =(

I served at the 11.30am service and helping out with events =) Was a little bit hectic but it was good =) I sat in the service but when I help out, I can never concentrate and worship Him so I attended the 5pm service. I am glad I did tonight. This weekend was all about "The Big Weekend"

These last few weeks I have been feeling rundown and seem to lose the spark to do things these days. I don't want to feel like this anymore. It's not right as I want to be an example wherever I go =) I really felt the Holy Spirit talking to me tonight and encouraging me to hang in there and to never give up and God has something greater in store for me. Just need to remain positive and to trust Him with all my worries and stresses.

I am grateful and blessed to be surrounded by beautiful people. I am grateful to:

~My family
~My connect group leader and group (If it hadn't been my CG leader, I wouldn't have started serving, so I am thankful for that =)
~My events team =)
~Beautiful church friends
~Miss Anita
~Koko Nick
~Johnny, my brother

I just wanted to say thank you for all your prayers, thoughts and encouragements for the past few weeks. I really appreciate. You made my day!

Have a blessed week. GBU. *Kiss kiss*

Escaping to dreamland

Lately I have been feeling run down and been cursing bad words which is not like me. I usually try to keep it altogether. I guess this is my stormy season at the moment. All I know is I can get through it. God is on my side and anything is possible through Him!

I just moved to a new apartment but still in the same building so I didn't move that far hehehe. My new room is bigger and the wardrobe is bigger too =) I haven't really had a chance to talk my new flatmates. I don't why I have this feeling that this new place doesn't really feel homey to me. Maybe because I am still new...

I woke up late yesterday for church and since I have started serving at church, I missed the church meeting. I woke up 10am and no way would I have made it to the meeting and since I take my time to get ready so I didn't go. I rather not go and be late. These things I like to be early and prepared. I wasn't any of them. I felt guilty. I couldn't see team leader at the service so I will have to explain next week... Hopefully my team won't be disappointed.

While we were waiting for the bus back to central guess who we saw? Guy Sebastian. Of course he was wearing sunnies but I could it was him =P I whispered to Anita that's Guy Sebastian and she just smiled =) I got all excited seeing Guy =)

Hairspray

"You can't stop the beat."

I had been dying to watch this movie and finally I did with Miss Anita =)

The movie was so good! I felt like singing and dancing in the cinema hehehe.

Tracy Turnblad, an overweight teenager with all the right moves, is obsessed with the Corny Collins Show. Every day after school, she and her best friend Penny run home to watch the show and drool over the hot Link Larkin, much to Tracy's mother Edna's dismay. After one of the stars of the show leaves, Corny Collins holds auditions to see who will be the next person on the Corny Collins show. With all of the help of her friend Seaweed, Tracy makes it on the show, angering the evil dance queen Amber Von Tussle and her mother Velma. Tracy then decides that it's not fair that the black kids can only dance on the Corny Collins Show once a month, and with the help of Seaweed, Link, Penny, Motormouth Maybelle, her father and Edna, she's going to integrate the show.....without denting her 'do!

What was good about this movie was it was protraying the racial differences between white and black people. There was still segration and no equality as it was set in the 1960s. There was one girl in particular, Tracy (who was not the norm) and made a stand to create equality for everyone. The songs were so cute too, had good positive messages =)

After watching the movie, now I am in love with Zac Efron.... He is hot for a 20 year old.... I found this picture of him...

Across the Universe

Work this week has been hectic.... Considering it is a Friday night I didn't want to stay in my cave I wanted to be out baby! Anita wanted to go out and watch a movie and dinner. So glad I did out with her! We had kebab beside Scruffy Murphy.... Man, the guy who looked after the cashier, I think was drunk, didn't charge me the right amount. He gave me too much change. Silly man. I told him and he said shhhh...

It was hard for us to decide wha to watch considering I am so out of what movies are in ;) I was picking movies on the basis of the look of the poster. Man, I am so into my advertising =P I saw this poster and thought this might be a good movie. Am so glad we picked this movie.



When the movie starting rolling I was shocked when the actor started singing and I turned to Anita and said I didn't know this was a musical hehehe. As the movie continued, I felt like singing along to The Beatles songs. I have to say I am not really into British guys but the actor was pretty hot hehehe.

I have included the trailer for you to enjoy. Trust me, you are better to watch the movie. My review: 2 thumbs up!
