Slumdog Millionaire

Slumdog Millionaire

Seldom, there's a movie that can make me rate it 5 stars. 'Slumdog Millionaire' is one of them.

"..A Mumbai teen who grew up in the slums, becomes a contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" He is arrested under suspicion of cheating, and while being interrogated, events from his life history are shown which explain why he knows the answers. Desperate to prove his innocence, Jamal tells the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up, of their adventures together on the road, of vicious encounters with local gangs, and of Latika, the girl he loved and lost. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show's questions. Each chapter of Jamal's increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show's seemingly impossible quizzes. "

(The story's summary i got from imdb. )


I knew long ago India has a discrimination of class, which was shown in this movie also. But i never know it was so bad. The movie has precisely bring out the balance of love and money. love the scene when it came to the last question, wher Jamal called his bro, Samal for help, and it wasLatika who took up the phone. When the host announced only 15 sec left for the phone call, wat's Jamal asked was just wher r u, how r u, Latika? The answer to the 2B Rupee ques seemed meaningless to him.

Happiness. Simplicity. Cherish. Grateful


It's has been has a long time since my last post,
but it seemed like CNY has just passed not long ago,
I brought along a table calendar from home, with space between each day,
to remind me what to do for the following week. and so I did.





For my job hunting process, it still appeared blur. So many graduates, so few jobs.


For my FYP, April will be a horrible month. The thesis, the poster presentation which will make hell of my life by then.


For my house searching process, that only just started not long ago and so sudden, SAO NTU seemed determine to kick us out, because of just a 2 weeks event of Youth Olympic, everyone has to moved out.


For my graduation trip, which suppose to be a happy matter, but turned out not so, I finally understand 1 thing, if you r not backpacking alone, is better you have a same wavelength with ur travel mate. Seriously, I hope my grad trip could be a successful one.





The month of Feb is a mixture of feeling, The early Feb was welcomed by flu virus, the mid of Feb was the love season, and so i greet it with my hand drawing pic as shown below.

Happiness. Simplicity. Cherish. Grateful - my philosophy of life.
