rubbish

"Da Vinci Code" the controversial movie that just hit the big screen… what a load of rubbish… i felt it was mediocre when i read the book, and after seeing the movie, i actually thought the book was better. i am convinced that if it wasn’t for the subject, the book would not have sold, and the movie would never have been made. the book is the type of book you read as a no brainer, you take it with you to the beach to do something while soaking up the sun… the movie… as always the movie is never as good as the book. i found it quite confusing, and i didn’t read the book, i probably won’t have had an idea what was going on. i think tom hanks was a smart man… he saw an opportunity to make a lot of money with a so-so movie.
why people are freaking out about this i don’t understand, there is not an ounce of truth in it… watch it as fiction… but i would actually recommend you to borrow someone else’s dvd if you really want to watch it… really not worth spending the money for the big screen teather!

food

i am in malaysia. what a beautiful country. it has perfect weather all year round (some might say its to hot and humid, but after living in india for 5 weeks i feel its perfect:). the people are warm and friendly, and everything revolves around food.

what is it about food... you here a lot of times that when people leave there home country there biggest struggle is that they don't have moms home cook meal... or they can't stand the country because the food is just to weird... i live in a community where any social event, meeting or chat has to have food. in malaysia the best way to get people to come to a meeting is to supply food... interesting how life revolves around our stomachs! and then you go to countries like sudan, india and djibouti where a lot of people only have (hopefully) one meal a day, some don't even have a meal, and are starving to death.

people say money rules the world... i beg to differ... i think food is ruling our lives!
