It's just another weekend. I know I sound like I've wasted time, but I really didn't do much. Just watching TV most of the time. ("NCIS", "Criminal Minds", "CSI:NY" - you name them.) I even watched "Rear Window" again.

I think the original version is one of the most brilliant classics I've ever watched.:D Simple but gripping. I enjoy the plot and admire the leading lady characters (Lisa Fremont the posh beauty, the rich girlfriend of Jeff and Jeff's nurse Stella while Jeff's still got a broken leg.)

And Grace Kelly played the posh, elegant beauty with the brain and courage very well.

For such an old setting, it was an amazing thriller where the leading ladies didn't play the typical "damsels in distress" kind of crap. They were in on the real action too, after the three of them - with Jeff - witnessed the murder at the other building from the rear window.

My brother and I escorted Mom to a wedding last night. Believe it or not, there's this social and behavioural pattern here:

If you want to know whether your twenty-something plus son or daughter is still single - you usually see them at weddings, escorting (or sometimes shyly trailing behind) their parents. But then again, that's not always entirely true - mostly based on public's general assumption. Maybe they're just bored. Maybe they're in an LDR (long-distant relationship).

Or perhaps they're having a fight with their boyfriend or girlfriend. Lots of probabilities.*shrugs* Anything can happen and we never know.

My brother and I? Yes, we're both single. (He's currently dating around - nothing serious. Don't bother ask this romantically-challenged bachelorette, though.*big evil grin*) But, allow me to make it clear about last night:

He drives the car much better than I do, and...yes, we were also looking for another free culinary adventure.*big evil grin* Hehe.:P

Mom met some of her old friends from work. Some of them looked at me - I mean, my well-polished face (by make-up, of course!:P) - and squealed in amazement:

"Ooh, dear. Look at you. You still have your babyish face!"

(YAY!:D)

Then Mom suddenly said, "Oh, but she's almost 30."

(Thanks a lot, Ma.:|)

Not much to do after that but eat, eat, and eat some more until it was enough for me. (Don't worry, I wasn't eating like a hog.:P) The music was fine, the band was playing a lot of soft, jazzy tracks. Typical for a grand wedding in town.

Tomorrow? I'll be a dubber at work.:) A bit of acting without having to worry about what you really look like.
