Monday

My boss left a belated birthday gift on my table yesterday, which I found out, was a "Precious Moments" Bible! I've been wanting one for quite awhile, and during one of our weekly sharing sessions some 2 months ago, I had mentioned in passing that I thought the "Precious Moments" Bible was rather sweet and nice to have. Imagine my surprise! That my boss bothered, and that she remembered (Most of the time she can be either a scatter-brain, or who doesn't waste time remembering - Hence, I have become her other brain.)

I joined a colleague for the movie yesterday evening - War of the Worlds. Rather a disappointment despite the hype that it was a big production and blah blah blah...The storyline is loose, and alot of things are unexplained (They just conveniently happened to be so), and the ending is abrupt, leaving me to wonder if Steven Spielberg was eager to end the movie just as some were eager to leave. Sigh...

I'm quite a movie buff, and granted that I form my opinions of a movie in the aftermath of watching it, I'm no critic either. Just my two-cents' worth. Saw some trailers of movies that would be screened soon, like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory starring Johnny Depp. Looks promising. The island too is screening soon. Some others include horror shows, including a local production. Not sure what the story is about, just that it's something about maids. Touchy topic. Aiyoh...
