Jan 29, Samedi


Sandrine, my french teacher (no longer Jean-luc, long story :p) got us free invites to the grand premier of Ocean in Gsc Pavilion. C'est beau et manifique.

It is a French nature documentary film by Jacques Perrin budgeted at 50mil euros. Amazing, I would say. It reflects marine life that need to be respected and negative aspects of human activities on them.

Shame on us!!

Pollutions, massive shark fins hunting by the Chinese...

Can you imagine how cruel are they to cut off the shark's fins and threw it back to the sea ALIVE?!!


According to wiki, the fins contain almost vitamin-less, and due to high mercury level, the FDA recommends pregnant women and young children avoid eating shark fins.

Personally, I don't really like to eat shark fins as it is tasteless and could be replaced by grass noodle that has the similar texture. I really don't see how it is the "status symbol" and all nonsense.

A few friends of mine had pledge for not eating shark fins lifetime, supporting the campaign of "Save Our Shark From A Bowl Of Soup" which I think is very noble.

Lastly, wishing you guys have a merrily chinese new year :) Bon nouvel an chinois :)


Life's 25 Toughest Questions - continued.

Question 2: Why do married folks begin to look like one another?

Watch any two people who like each other talking, and you'll see a lot of mirroring.

One smiles, and so does the other. One nods or raises her eyebrows, and so does the other. Faces are like melodies with a natural urge to stay in sync.

Multiply those movements by several decades of marriage, all those years of simultaneous sagging and drooping, and it's no wonder!

errrrr....... I can't really agree with this haha. I don't see how my parents look alike :p how about yours?!
