Nothing short of wonderful

What a relaxing day. I feel so privileged to be able to have a holiday on a Monday. It's like having two Sundays!

Spent the day clearing up my room, messed up from the potluck yesterday. Disposed off the many bottles of red wines, vacuuming up the carpet, scrubbing the pots, and of course, laundry. Found it shockingly cold today. My feet are freezing. Checked the temperature... ... -20 C. Ahhh, how can that be. It was only -8 the day before. And it's only beginning of December. Oh how i wish winter would end early this year. I can't imagine walking around Europe at the peak of winter. However it may be, I'm guessing it can never be as bad as Russia.

I've just finished watching Julie & Julia.. I'm lost for words on how to describe the movie. It was simply amazing. Yes, I love any movie that contains food. And watching Meryl Streep in the movie just sort of reminded me of my grandma. Her tall, gangly behaviour, walking around the kitchen chopping up ingredients with that sort of self satisfied look on her face just made me smile throughout the whole movie. It was just the sort of movie that gave me that warm, internal hug and imploded with candies inside my tummy and stuff like that (knowing if i'd continue describing this, people would think i'm insane). But it was just that.. Watching the movie and sipping on my chamomile tea on this dreadful wintery day, made everything feel so perfect.

How i wish i can enjoy the moment just awhile more. Alas, I'm reminded that i have to start studying for my exam which is in a month's time. Ohh can't i just procrastinate a little more. What difference does a day make right?? =D Hmmm.. So torned between enjoying this little time to myself that i've been so deprived of, and concentrating on my goal of being a good doctor. The former does sound more appealing.

Hence, here i am, quoting an overly cliched line from movies for whenever a character doesn't know what to do.. A wise chinese man, will appear from no where and say, "Follow your Heart". (i'm exaggerating, that doesn't happen all the time).

So..... 'Follow your heart' it is!

'Cloudy with a chance of meatballs' anyone? =D
