9 Apr 10 - mamma mia

pardon me, people.. but i'm damn HIGH now.. all cos of what-i-thought-a-crappy-show "Mamma Mia"! I've always love musicals (if u have doubts, it shows u really dont know me at all) and what makes a GREAT modern musical than Mamma Mia? when it was screened i have always thought it will be another crappy broadway cast on screen (cos i'd prefer to watch in real threatres), but when i watched it just now.. how wrong i have been!!

i like the bond between donna and sophie.. they are so sisterly, rather than motherly.. did i ever tell u that WAS my hope with my daughter? *anyway, heck, that's the past now* i like the fun-loving character of donna - though she's aged, she is just so beautiful as in her youth. totally wild yet accountable (mw commented similiarity in my character) *that's so sweet of him.. but i wonder how would he react if i'd to have 3 'husbands' turning up for my daughter's wedding?:p * ok, the music adds to the hype, but honestly i'm more attracted to liveliness of the characters.. each has such a free spirit to love, to forgive and to accept. what comes may, they are ready to embrace *gosh i love this spirit! how i wish i can be that carefree too~*

the scenery was great too.. wonderful cosy church.. it's very different to what i had in mind for mine, but i have to say: church on hill-top by the sea is always very enchanting. to creme this dream, the wedding reception is simply too improbable!! i really cant put it in words!! candlelight feasting under big shady tree, with all your love ones around you - family, relatives, friends (all fun-loving and spontaneous).. no need for posh dining or elaborated gown for parading (of course, the bride still has to be pretty at all times), even passing of food down the long table can be such a joy with a change to traditional course-by-course dining/buffet.. ok, i'm dreaming.. i know i'm dreaming.. being asian, practicality comes first, let alone i'm a freaking practical+demanding person.

after being in dreamland, my beloved bro excelled himself by providing me with this!

now you know how LOVELY my bro is~ spare me no mercy from the hype! all my efforts to educate him on practicality and logic going down the drain! *gosh, is this church not 'building church in the air'?* and from this link, i was so so BLESSED to be able to watch SUNRISE IN GREECE in REALTIME! (http://www.skopelosweb.gr/skopelos.html) seriously, even though it's thru internet, sunrise in skopelos island is sure to captivate you!

ok, too many unreal things in my life now.. j, u have to hang onto reality before becoming quixotic.. being laputan is not going to get u anywhere.. wakey wakey!
