After This Our Exile 父子



一部简单朴实,却极度感人的剧情。

虽然是描述一对父子在孩子母亲离开后的故事,但如果与阿朗的故事相比,还是觉得少了点什么。

不过我内心深处却不停的替小男孩叫屈,毕竟大人之间的不快乐,应该尽量避免影响到小孩。父母离异,最无辜的还是小孩。

剧中的小孩,感受到母亲欲离家的举动,跑去跟父亲通风报信,似乎是企图挽救这个家的自然意识。但父亲却以暴力制止,加深了母亲离家的恒心。小孩对母亲的不负责任深感唾弃,起初还是宁愿跟随烂赌的爸爸。但随着父亲无情(或无知?)的把他推向犯罪的深渊,小孩对爸爸彻底失望,独自在感化院度过十年的少年时光。片尾大人都似乎得到了幸福,唯独小孩长大了,却得独自面对未来。

真他妈的不该在深夜看这类影片....

Nightout@Gotham


It is CL's last day today, so a few colleagues (actually quite a "few" - about 17 of us) met at the Gotham penthouse for a drink.

This is the first time I am at this kind of joint...Didn't knew what it was known for, until someone talked about it during lunch.

There are 3 performances daily: 10.30 pm, 12 midnite, 2 am

Music from 10 to midnight was to my liking. thereafter I was almost falling asleep. The crowd was relatively 'old', with more ladies (of cos) than men.

We hang around until 2 plus when kf also came along.

After sending a sobbing colleague home, I turn around to join kf, cl, sslim and irean for supper at Aljunied.

Finally reached home around 4 plus and hit the sack at 5 plus.

We are Singapore residents

After reading what Seah Chiang Nee wrote, I was thinking, maybe it is just a matter of time before one of the National Day song changes from "We are Singaporean" to "We are Singapore citizens".

Fortunately, the Chinese version of our national pledge is more far-sighted:
"我们是新加坡公民..."

To blog or not to blog

It's getting more and more precarious in blogosphere. Be careful of what you said, or you might lose your job.

Blogger Tan Kian Ann has this to say - Who should not blog?

Coffeeshop goes retro

I was caught off guard over the weekend when I got my usual cup of teh-c at a neighbouhood coffee shop. For some reason, the coffee shop/food court has decided to go retro/Ya Kun style for their hot drinks container.


There was just a little problem - it is actually a mini porcelain cup, with half the content at the same cost of 90 cents.

I recollected having vaguely seen a skit about half-a-cup of kopi on a local TV comedy programme very recently. It must have been based on a true story...

Coincidentally, I wasn't the only one who had the feeling that cups are shrinking in Singapore.

Goodbye

Goodbye Xiang Qi. You were a strong boy.

If there is life there after, hopefully it will be a much better one than you had...
