I wanted to watch "Avatar" but the whole island is still watching it and I was unable to get tickets for it last night. So my last movie of the year is "Sherlock Holmes".
My impression of the detective has always been that he is polished and refined, with a chubby Dr. Watson tottering around after him. Thus, this version of Holmes was most refreshing. It took a while to accept that the scruffy, seemingly inapt character is the famous detective, but as the movie went on, the character grew on me. I liked how the characters play off each other, particularly Holmes and Watson, and Holmes and Inspector Lestrade. The humor is subtle and fast, so if you are not paying attention, there is a chance you might actually miss it. I think Irene Adler's character was an extra. Maybe I have to watch it again, but I don't see the purpose of her at all! Even if she didn't send Holmes on the hunt for her dwarf, he would still have gone to investigate anyway. The only purpose for her character would be to introduce Moriarty, which if not followed up in a 2nd movie, would be completely useless.
"This is a matter of professional integrity. No girl wants to marry a man who cannot tell the dead from the living." ~ Sherlock Holmes

| It never fails to astound me how make up and the right poise can make such a difference to how someone looks. And yet, I am still too lazy to put make up on :) Natural FTW :D
But I still think my sister looks awesome :) I totally feel inspired to take nice pictures on my birthday now :D

| I just got back from a family vacation to Bangkok. My family usually does this big holiday thing once a year. I've been reminded yet again how "shopping holidays" cannot be family holidays cause the boys will go crazy and die :)
I took as many pictures as I could. Remember that it was a shopping vacation so there was very little to take pictures of during the day :)

| Its a simple change. But I like it.
Something about Christmas... must be the snow, the white, the cozy, the warm fuzzy feeling of giving :)
I totally have to get ready for an appointment later for work, and I can't even concentrate on it. The meeting is with a group of people who are heavily involved in solar energy. Trying to research on the company and what they do doesn't sync with the cold but cozy thoughts that I have :)
I'm so excited to go for my holidays. I'm already planning what to bring and things to do. Jr is coming along, of course. And Snowball. They always have to come. I need to go take a picture of Snowball so everyone knows who he is :)
I've already done some of my Christmas shopping. No where near enough cause I only got presents for like... 2 people? BUT it is a start nonetheless. I have a sister who is ridiculously hard to shop for. Cause there are a million things that I know she would like. What one of a million things could I get her??
I'm going to be going to watch a movie with my sibbies this Saturday.
Disney FTW!! :)
