Millions

Oh well, yesterday i went watching movie -millions- with my friend, patrick.
The movie was simple..Two boys found a stash of money..
But within a week they need to spend it all away..because it is changing to euros soon..
and the money would be quite useless then..
The elder brother, anthony, wants to spend it all between his brother on material stuff..
While his younger brother, damien, wants to use part of this money to do the works of saints..
meaning, to help the poor..like donating money to needed charities..becos he believed that the money came from god, bestoed to him to do good deeds...
While the two brothers are always conflicting on the issue of money..They were really concerned about each other..to cut to the chase, the robber was caught, the money were converted to euros, with about 3/4 of it returned to the police..the remaining 1/4 was kept by them secretly..
overall movie rating: 3.5 stars out of 5.

Well, i wouldn't say it is really a v. nice movie..but it does somehow lack something which i can't point out as yet..nevertheless, it is still a good movie.

Chated with my friend for some time cos we heaven met up for about a yr since he went NS...
He told me lots of stuff..He said that the NS weren't as strict as in the past..But still, dun try to do foolish thing there..It seems that the camera phones are allowed in some camps now..But discreet is observed when bringing such stuff..Like cameras too..He urged me to learn driving now while i can, than to wait till NS..But seriously speaking, i know i can't afford a car..It's akin to a second wife..meaning spending money (lotsa) on the car..like repairing it, spray painting it, COE, oil prices...It'll just all add up to a huge cost that i think is not worth the effort..Nevertheless, it is a skill that is rather good to have when u got a free car, COE, oil refilling, car repairs..But i doubt there will be that day where u drive the car but someone else pays for the expenses of the car..Haha..It's just not likely..But for most of my friends whom had car driving licence..not able to drive a car is a great discomfort..

Pausing for a moment to think, actually, i hadn't much courage to try i guess..
Somehow i just can't get over the overcast of failure..All boils down to my low self esteem..
I know i got to do something..but i dun think i can do it..
I always imagine failure before i started to doing things..
And well, yes most of the times, IT'S A FAILURE...
Perhaps i need to think just a bit more positively..
Then everything would work out well..
