An anime I recently watched from Hayao Miyazaki, and I think, there will be more to come! :)

I love the way the anime is produced. All hand drawn and color pencilled unlike the new animated cartoons which looks too real to be one.

There is a deeper meaning behind just pure entertainment for Hayao Miyazaki's films. It shows a person's independence, strength, confidence and determination during hard times - some values that we should practice in our lives.

Next on the list would probably be - Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind and Howls Moving Castle. XD

I always am and still is a sucker for romantic comedies because I find it easy to "consume" without using much of my brain cells. Ok I'm lazy even when it comes to watching movie. But the point is, romantic comedies with its cheesy and forever repeating plots will always have a beautiful ending whereby and they live happily ever after everything works perfectly well.

Think again, I guess most people (or rather me) use this as an escapism from the "cruelty" of real life. Using those "happy" plots to make up for the lack of happy "endings" in each phase of our lives, giving us me momentary SS syndrome to cheer ourselves up. :p

I have been watching a lot of romantic comedies these few days, ranging from those produced in the 2000's to those produced in the 1990's or even the 1980's. One of my favorite had to be My Big Fat Greek Wedding. The characters brings an attractive, warmhearted simplicity to the movie, portraying a close loving family that can overcome any "obstacle". Most important, capturing enough romance with the right amount of "slapstick" throughout the movie, making it fun movie to watch.

Why am I blogging about this? Mostly because I have nothing better to write about? Or maybe because THERE ARE TOO MANY WEDDING PHOTOS FLOODING AROUND ON FACEBOOK THESE FEW DAYS therefore making me feel like watching heartwarming love stories which leads to me blog about it?  :P

Went for 2012 during the weekend, and this sets me thinking. What if 2012 is true and the world is coming to an end? I wonder how would I  react in this situation... would I be like the pilgrims kneeling down and praying hard to god, asking for repentance before dooms day? or will I be scrambling around the earth looking for a way to stay alive? But I guess all these are just random questions that will never be answered unless the situation really arises. But one thing for sure, no matter what, I want to be with the people I love during those frantic moments. :)

I cannot predict what will happen in 2012. But I can definitely predict what will happen this weekend... A BLOODY BUSY WEEKEND WITH A BUS LOAD FULL OF ACTIVITIES!
