The Matrix: Then and Now

The other day, TV2 was showing 1999's 'The Matrix'.

Back then, Keanu Reeves looked so OMiGosh-ly 嫩/tender! LOL...

The movie still makes me confused though. I'm not really sure why I was quite into this movie back then, I think might because of all those cool stunts (dodge bullet, stuff like that), but I'm pretty sure my English level was no where near proficient, so I didn't understand a word Morpheus is saying.

Even now, when Morpheus was explaining 'The Matrix' to Neo, my jaw dropped, blank stare, with a loud 'HUH'. It got so confused!! LOL

**************

Watched 'Skyfall' yesterday. My POV:
1) Never send a rookie to a field job
(Or is she a rookie? If she's not then MI6 is so screwed!!)
2) Agents are the legalized/authorized vandals
See what both of them did to Turkey just to chase after one bad guy...
3) I thought the movie ended after 007 'skyfalled' from the train, like 10 minutes into the show, because of all the credit rolling...
4) Silva is so much more entertaining to watch than 007
5) The theme song is Aweeesome!
6) There isn't a significant Bond girl in this one. Severine? She isn't really a sidekick and she died too soon; Moneypenny? This girl shoots Bond on the shoulder!

黄山，安徽省黄山市 WARNING: Damn long post! Initially, I was thinking about writing the whole events of my East China trips, not as detailed but just as slightly explained as I could, but I don't think I can. Hehe. So, I'll just write about my most satisfied trip, and leave the rest for the pictures I've uploaded in Facebook to tell the tale. This would be one of my best trips ever in my whole life. The fact is that, my confession to most of friends and family who don't know yet , it is my first solo backpack trip! v(^.^)v It has been a long and 'secret' planning, that I have said a lot of white lies to make it come true. I'm sorry to those I've lied, I have a sin. A big one =( Solo backpack in a foreign country is hassle free if you make detailed yet adjustable planning, where you can either follow what you have planned or making some adjustment according to the situation later in your trip accordingly. A planning is crucial especially if you are the kind of by-

Danok One Day 'Decent' Trip

Image
Since there is a request on writing this post (and I'm freaking damn honored!), so here it goes... On Friday, Wesak Day, we (me, CK, Voon and BeeYing) went to Danok for a day trip. It was initially a plan to have the cheap steamboat after I had one on January, but, you know, delays and delays happen. Until one day, we had enough and decided this is it!! Since CK has been there few times at night, I have been there once at night, the other two never been there, and they can NONE about description or recommendation of day trip in Danok online, we decided we gonna give it a try (a day-trip try). Departed from Kangar after breakfast around 9.30AM, reaching Bukit Kayu Hitam about an hour later and traffic jam!!! It took us around one hour (!!) for a journey of 200 m to reach and cross the Malaysian border checkpoint. SO many people were going 'overseas' on the 3-days long weekend plus school holiday. Parked the car at the Duty Free mall and walked for about 200 m to cr
