According to the Chinese calendar yesterday is exactly the day of the Mid Autumn. I was supposed to go back home and celebrate with my mom. But I’ve came down with a cold and I have to take measure to take care of it and to have a long drive home was not exactly the smartest choice. So you can say that I have the most uneventful weekend of the year. Not quite. You’d be surprised how many things that you can actually get done to stay at home the whole weekend.
In my disbelieve I’ve actually finishes Twilight in 2 weeks and begin on the 2nd book of the saga “New Moon” straight away now. It was totally addictive as if I’ve became the vampire thirst for a drink. And the book is the blood. When I started I can’t seem to lay it down. Everyday when I got home, I was reading the book. I think I’m maybe coming down with the cold for movie, TV and CD HAHA! The Saga will have a great debut in November and I’m sure if the movie is as addictive as the book, a sequel will definitely be in the making. I won’t want to break the plot to any people. I‘ve got through Lord of the Rings in one shot. I’ve got through all 7 Harry Potter and now I’m totally fallen into the Twilight while waiting for the 3rd book of the Inheritance saga. And I just got an idea for a person who is looking for a way to know what are their standard of English is.... they can start with Harry Potter, growing with the book through the 7 books and 7 year and by the time the person finish he’ll be in the teenager standard. And then he may continue to enhance his teenager’s standard with the Twilight saga. If you can make it through it you may start with the Inheritance and taste you Dark age’s vocabulary and the then it’s time for the hard stuff. Lord of the Rings and Shakespears. My kind of English language courses.
Well, actually I didn’t really just stayed at home for the past 2 days. I actually went for a small movie when I was trying to get my hand on the “New Moon”. It’s actually somewhat a Eric Bana week. There’s “The Other Boleyn Girl” and “Romulus My Father”. Yes, both not the current movies, well, there haven’t been any new movie that can get through the censor lately that actually able to reach the region fast enough. While the American is enjoying the new movie like Tropic Thunder, we have The Love Guru. Jessica Alba have already got her baby out and the movie is actually made before she is pregnant. So it’s not exactly new HAHA!
Any way I watched “Romulus My Father”, it is most probably the most boring movie that I’ve been to but as anything that’s happened this week. It’s perfectly fabulous. it’s the most honest and realistic movie I’ve ever watched. A Romanian in the rural area of Australia in the 1960s, with an unfaithful mother that the father still in love with. Narrated through the eyes of the son, the story unfold in front of our eyes, the betrayal, the silent acceptance of the father, the education of a father to raise a son to become a great man. It is a story told by the writer of the story, Raymond Gaita about his father and family. It is totally wonderful and really tranquilizing.
And I have the most “Aha” moment this weekend of my Law of Attraction and A New Earth practice.
