Watched the last one hour of this movie "Mr Brother" over Channel U..

a very touching story..excellent acting skills and the story plot is focused and brings a very strong meaning to the viewers. Sibling love, motherly love..the love of kinship..how the elder brother has tried to help or care for the younger bro who is played by Won Bin.

haha..still remember Won Bin was a big-time fav among ZJ they all, but not for me. He's not my cup of tea.. =p

Love the ending and how the director films and directs the story..the director manages to capture the meaning of kinship very vividly..

The story ends with the elder brother who was killed by an accidental assault and how Won Bi's character and the mother tried to cope with the loss.

And it kinda reminds me of one colleague in my department who has lost her daughter quite some time ago.. the loss was a big sudden to her, as well as the other colleagues who have watched this daughter grow up into a young adult...and i can feel that this colleague's still going through a tough time even though she talked cheerfully to us..but..it just doesn't feel right..then again, i believe she knows she has to be strong..and it's not easy for a mother to take that kind of hit...

Managed to have resolved that HR issue..hee..was pretty happy, mainly cos i feel i've striked a balance..and that my boss is relatively pleased with the way i managed it.. =)

starting to get very stressed up..exams soon...has taken 7 days of my annual leave..

sigh...and i really wanna go overseas....but...i can't...cos i only have 18 days of leave....and i need to save up for exam leave...sigh....even my colleague asked me before why i am not going overseas at all, at least to take a good break..i want too...but ....i know i need to scarifice and be patient...be patient for my 2-yrs contract to be confirmed and have my exam leave to approved by then...and eventually hopefully can have longer annual leave if i stay there longer....

Went to a community club to give a briefing on a programme to a group of grassroots leaders on thursday evening during their meeting...

and gosh, how resistant and sceptical they can get...and they even had a voice recorder for their meeting...! which means i have to be careful in what i say.. =s

went there alone, partly cos there'll not be any advisor attending the meeting, which may indicate it's not going to be that tough to manage, from the feedbacks i got from my other colleagues who had went to other areas to give the same briefing..so my boss actually let me go alone..but well, the unity of grassroots leaders/reps from this area can be tough to handle..!!

gosh gosh gosh...

then again, it's good exposure and work experience for me..and given that kind of pressure, i personally feel i've done not tooo bad....at least i feel my tone was confident and assertive...despite of the sceptism truthfully expressed by many of them..
