Heheee&#8230; frankly speaking, it&#8217;s a lil&#8217; weird seeing a bunch of chinese actors\/actresses speaking such fluent English to an Ang Moh.. Haha.. and I was quite worried that I might doze off in the movie at first, <em>you know.. hours after work, pretty tired!<\/em> =p To my surprise, I am so engrossed and I actually quite liked the movie.

I adore this poster more than the above. This photo totally brings out the <em>hiao-ness<\/em>! And how happy and proud they are of themselves in the beginning of the show. Walking towards a shelter during hard times. Well, if you carry on watching the show, you&#8217;ll feel a drastic change as they are faced with harsher Reality than the Reality they were already in then.. As I was watching the movie, I found them so noisy, I felt irritated, but later on, I started to appreciate their beauty.
