I heart Paris

Paris is always a good idea - The movie "Sabrina"
In the movies Paris is designed as a backdrop for only three things—love, fashion shows, and revolution. - Jeanine Basinger
When Paris sneezes, all Europe catches a cold - Prince Metternic
I love Paris in the summer, when it sizzles. How can one not love Paris? This is the first trip back to Europe since my graduation from Cambridge back in 2006. It’s nostalgic. I was there for work with my housemate, Carrie but in Paris can it be truly called ‘work’? Europe is as beautiful as I remember. The gorgeous sunshine, the Victorian buildings, the smell of freshly brewed coffee, the never-ending Champ Elysees.. what’s not to love about Paris?
Carrie Bradshaw said in Paris,
‘I'm looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love’.
One can understand why. This city is the backdrop to some of the greatest love stories ever told. There is something magical about this place. Just like how I felt a few years ago, I stepped into a different world the moment I touched Paris.
The evidence lies with the numerous quotes by people who have been mesmorised by the very same city over time immemorial. It is indeed the only city in the world where you can step out of a railway station—the Gare D’Orsay—and see, simultaneously, the chief enchantments: the Seine with its bridges and bookstalls, the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Tuileries Gardens, the Place de la Concord and, the beginning of the Champs Elysees. I heart Paris, today, and forever more.
Good Americans, when they die, go to Paris. - Thomas Appleton
In Paris, everybody wants to be an actor; nobody is content to be a spectator. - Jean Cocteau
If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast. - - Ernest Hemingway

Gateway Camp

Summer is here! I love everything about it. The camps, the beaches ,the clothing! I went to a camp with 1500 people from 50 nations. Now that was fun! I met some of the kindest most charitable people here.
Here, I see a generation rising up to take the place. Truly inspiring! People abroad fight so hard for what they believe in and yet, I take my freedom of speech and luxury for granted.
Sometimes, we need to go back to the basics to be able to appreciate the simple things in life. When I go back, my bed never felt so comfortable. Suddenly, my small apartment looked more clean and spacious than ever. haha! God is good:)

Hi guys!!
I'm in a good mood today! Somehow i feel like today is the beginning of something new! Oh, I've also got my all-important-casting to go to. They made me lose 15 pounds 2 months ago for this
Now that I've registered to take the law exams (I've got to get my hk licence) I've got to juggle work and studies as my exams are in July. So there's the Diesel party which I've decided to pass tonight cos I think I'll go for COACH for see John Mayer. I guess I have to give some functions or I'd fail my exams! But all's good. I feel motivated somehow. Like I said, I am in a good mood today !
Anyway, my photos for Esprit Salon is finally out.
I think I look weird here.

When a girl meets her idol..
Sunday, May 18, 2008 4:02AM / Standard Entry / Members only
It was a pretty mundane night in a private club and there I was minding my own business, sipping champagne until I noticed a guy who didn't quite fit the dress code. He was in a white t-shirt, pants and white sports shoes. He wore a cap over his long grey and was awkwardly swimming in a jacket which was quite apparently put onto him by someone else who thinks that he was standing out just a tad too much.
It took me one whole minute to figure out who he was. I can't believe that because I've watched 40 of his movies and a few of them, over 30 times! When I realised who he was, I asked my friend to introduce us and guess what was the first stupid words that rolled out from my tongue?
" I've been watching your movies since I was 8 years old"
and he went,
" Don't say that, you make me feel so old" !
I was sort of wishing that the ground would miraculously split open and swallow me up at that moment.
I mean after more than 10 years of wanting to tell him how much I love him as a legend, that's the best I could come up with? Oh well, I don't think he'll remember it anyway.Maybe many would you have guessed correctly by now. Yes, he is no other that the ultimate king of comedy,
I was so proud when I saw this cover. You've got to love this Asian Hero.
So which is your favourite movie? I'll highlight mine in PINK. Warning: I might end up highlighting all!
