Happy Chinese New Year!

Whoo.. It's been decades since I've blogged.. Chinese New Year.. To me, this festive season was kinda low-lying for me.. I kinda took the whole week to rest after my exams.. only went out on Thurs.. Morning.. went to both sides of my relative house.. did the usual "bai nian" thingy.. after tat went out with my frens.. well I guess this explains why my hongbao collection has greatly depleted this year..

Just caught the show on channel 5, The Notebook.. I'm a great fan of that show.. Then last week I caught 27 dresses in the movies.. plus Kung Fu Dunk.. nice shows.. Funny.. I caught The Notebook like abt 3 times already.. but I'm still so madly in love with tat show.. Below's a slight summary:

Synopsis: A young woman comes to the coastal town of Seabrook, North Carolina in the 1940's to spend the summer with her family. Still in her teens, Allie Hamilton (Rachel McAdams) meets local boy Noah Calhoun (Ryan Gosling) at a Carnival. On the spot, Noah senses that he and Allie are meant to be together.... A young woman comes to the coastal town of Seabrook, North Carolina in the 1940's to spend the summer with her family. Still in her teens, Allie Hamilton (Rachel McAdams) meets local boy Noah Calhoun (Ryan Gosling) at a Carnival. On the spot, Noah senses that he and Allie are meant to be together. Though she is a wealthy debutante and he a mill worker, over the course of one passionate and carefree summer in the South, the two fall deeply in love. Circumstances - and the sudden outbreak of World War II - drive them apart, but both continue to be haunted by memories of each other. When Noah returns home from the war years later, Allie is irrevocably gone from his life, but not from his heart. Though Noah doesn't yet know it, Allie has come back to Seabrook, where they first fell in love. But now Allie is engaged to marry Lon (James Marsden), a wealthy soldier she met while volunteering in a GI hospital. Decades later, a man (James Garner) reads from a faded notebook to a woman (Gena Rowlands) he regularly visits at her nursing home. Though her memory has faded, she becomes caught up in the fiery story of Allie and Noah - and for a few moments, she is able to relive the passionate, turbulent time when they swore they'd be together always. New Line Cinema presents The Notebook, a story of lost chances, growing up and the power of enduring love.

In the end.. They got together.. but the poor lady lost her memory.. so sad.. but the guy stilll stayed with her.. This is wat I call 4 better or worse.. till death do us part.. It is easy to stay together during the good times, but are we really ready for the worse?

Monday's back to reality.. work.. I've had a solid 1 week's rest.. so I'm now ready to kick some butt.. Sadly.. It's 1 of my colleague's last day the following Fri.. Hopefully, I'll be able to accomplish alot even without her cos she has been really helpful towards me these past 5 mths..
