Movies. movies.

During the time I suffered from flu & sinusitis, I stayed home a lot, sleeping a lot. To compensate for the time lost to sleeping, I dragged my brother (almost) every night to watch DVDs.

So far, I have seen Notting Hill (a fairy tale, but left a deep impression on me. Very deep *_*), The Recruit (Al Pacino is ALWAYS great. Colin Farrell is, surprisingly, good, too), The Sweetest Thing (mmm... Cameron Diaz is too 'bubbly' to my liking), Analyze That (good sequel. I like when Robert de Niro sang, "I feel pretty. Oh so pretty..." XD And pretended to be psychotic), and Ocean's Eleven (for the third time, I think).

Here is one movie that I cannot wait to see. Yummy =9

Oh! I also went to the French Film Festival twice to see two of their showings: Embrassez qui vous voudrez (which is pretty good, although too light to my liking; an easy movie) and L'homme du train (this might be a good movie to certain people, but not for me. Too boring and pointless -_-).

I have more than 20 DVDs waiting to be watched at my bookshelf. And will be adding more to the collection soon. Yes, I'm turning into a movie addict =D

City rhythm dancing in my life...

I didn't quite know that sinusitis takes a long time to heal. Usually, with antibiotics, I only catch flu for 4-5 days maximum. But since this time it includes sinusitis, 10 days have past and I'm still not 100% healed. I mean, apart from the nose (and the sinus area), I'm all fit, but the nose... -_- Every 5-10 minutes or so, I have to blow my nose.

Anyhow, my mom just got back from a 2-week business (and leisure) trip to Madrid, Spain with my second mom, her bestfriend. You might've guessed already: she brought me a lot (and I mean, A LOT) of clothings from there! XD XD Oh, I'm so joyful! You know, 8 months have passed since Oct 2002 and my stuff (50+ boxes) are still stuck in the USA. That's why I desperately need new clothes (I only brought 2 luggages with me when I went to Indonesia). I have to wait for my car to be sold before I can send all of them to Indonesia. It costs a lot, you know, those 50+ boxes and other things.

Oh, the Spanish clothings? Very nice, my friend, they're very nice. I got some Mango clothings as well, they're so cheap there!
