greased lightning!

it's about one more month till i get to go home! :)

time to decide the date. still in a slight dilemma, but i think i'll choose to go back a little later this time around. stuff i want to settle, and i guess i can use that time to explore and wander around, and use up the t-balanced film that's been rotting in my camera since last sem. hurhur

so yup, been catching up on some movie-watching. glad to say that i've watched some 36 films in the last 11 weeks that i've been back in perth. haha, pretty awesome.

just caught 'atanarjuat: the fast runner' today. it's really, really, really good. everything shot on one cheap (relatively) camera but the entire film is so engrossing and it's made me completely intrigued about the inuit and their way of life. now, i want to go up to northern canada to where the dancing lights are and live in an igloo. :D

but yeah, as part of the syllabus to make us think about race, nation and community in cinema, i think this is such an apt film. just the landscape alone is so different, it feels like you're on another planet. Yet the issues dealt with are so common throughout the human race.

yeh, i would recommend it to anyone. go watch it!

and on a completely different note, i made chicken curry today! and i had it with prata! super shiok, i tell you! it was as good as the real stuff. and almost as good as my grandma's. haha. i have some leftover and i'm looking forward to dinner tonight! :D

i'm itching to watch 'grease' again!

"maraschino. you know, as in cherry." hurhurhur!
