The Mist

Dropped first at the Landmark Department Store to pick-up the "fly on horse" (speed), the other pair of the "monkey on horse" (perseverance), with the two bringing the joy of a smooth and a quick-to-success career. "When the monkey rides on the horse, it implies immediately winning a good position and salary, because monkey sounds like 'lord' and on the horse means 'immediately'. On the other hand the fly sounds like 'win or triumph'. When a fly goes on a horse, it means 'winning immediately." (From http://www.fengshuibestbuy.com/SL10402-horse.html)

Then have my film developed and proceeded to watch my movie for the week--The Mist.


The movie is a horror, suspense, thriller from the imagination of Stephen King. The small town in Maine was suddenly enveloped by a thick, impenetrable mist with horrible creatures hiding in it that feed on humans. A group of people were holed inside the supermarket as they try to understand what's going on. Stuck in, they eventually turned on each other.

The story is well told. Putting a bunch of people with different personalities and beliefs in an enclosed space, pitting them against a seemingly unbeatable threat outside, expect a situation to crop up within them. The twist in the end added shock to the already volatile situation.

After the movie, attended the anticipated Mass and had dinner at Italianni's (again).

Upon arriving home, borrowed Manong so we can go to Serendra and buy Conti's Mango Bravo. There were lots of security/police and PSG in the area. I wonder where GMA is having her dinner...



Lesson learned: Better read the whole message. I was supposed to develop the pictures in the hope of joining in the on-the-spot photo contest of the YKL booth during the Photo World Asia 2008. Checked back the e-mail and learned that the date of submission was last Monday, February 4. Waahhhh....
